How The Heck Am I Supposed to Get Pregnant??

Alexis

Ladies, I am seriously frustrated.

My daughter is 13 months now, and I've been off birth control for 4 months and have almost completely weaned, and my husband and I are trying to track my cycle so we can plan for our next pregnancy. It either needed to happen before September, or it'll have to be after December due to his Army schedule and my busy season with work.

I feel like our time is growing shorter every day to get pregnant, and he is about to leave for the Army until late August so unless we miraculously get pregnant in a week, our dreams of having another will be pushed back yet again.

The first 2 months I was off birth control, i had 2 periods a month. Both times started the day before my projected ovulation day. The third month, i had a 2 week long heavy period. The fourth month, i had a day of spotting but completely missed an actual cycle. I took ovulation tests and pregnancy tests and i got nothing. Now we are in July and I have no clue when to expect my ovulation date because last month completely threw me off.

I know it'll happen, it's just our first was an oopsie wedding night pregnancy and we really want this next one planned so that my husband can be home for our delivery. Im feeling the pressure 😭
