Anyone not doing OPK/temps/chart this month?

dan-o · Jan 16th, 2010, 06:46 AM

This month I've decided not to use anything at all, I'm just going to relax & have plenty of good old fashioned

!!!

Anyone else joining me on an au naturale TTC cycle?

I normally have a 26-28 day cycle & ov somewhere around day 12-15, so that's about a week from now - ish

Hi Dan-o
Hope you're ok honey.
I've tried the I'm not doing any testing or temping last month. I tried to just inject some fun back into

. Also all my friends said they got pregnant the month they decided to stop trying.
However, it drove me crazy not knowing if I ovulated or not. It was a nightmare not knowing what my body was doing.
It taught me to be more relaxed about ttc but at the same time the wondering if i'd even ovulated made me frustrated.
I'm just going to use my fertility monitor this month as I'm having a belated honeymoon and the thought of temping will kill the mood.

Good luck

Hows it going? Just interested to see if you've been relaxed or not. I'm considering doing it next cycle if AF shows her ugly face x

I'm not charting , temping or using OPKs this month...and for the next few months probably. I thought that knowing when i OV would be an advantage but it made me obssessed to the point that i was thinking about it 24/7, it was ruining

and got me so depressed every time i got BFN and AF. To top it off i had either a faulty BFP FRER last month or a chemical..im not sure on that one. Either way, it was the last straw so i thought ok mother nature, i will de stress, chill out and leave it up to fate.

The first thing of course was that it put all the fun back into

and I feel alot calmer.
Saying all that, it has been bloody hard not to even work out my potential OV day or order some more OPKS

I'm 33 in a fortnight, my age has been worrying me alot but I'm trying to keep that out of my head too.
