Right on time...

Well after I was more than sure I was preggers b/c of all my phantom symptoms...all of which turned out to be PMS symptoms. AF showed up right on time, first thing in the morning on CD32 on Feb 25th. Though I was not the least bit amused by her arrival, I had succumbed to the fact that she was going to be arriving as phantom symptoms had started to disappear. I was happy that she came right on time, any lateness would've drove me crazy!!!!
As a reference for myself, I will journal a few of these symptoms and possible causes as a reminder to not believe the hype this month.

2/18--nausea begins to set in, early morning as I am brushing teeth and in the car and light bouts in the evening (all of which could be due to progesterone)

2/21--tender breast off and on (due to me constantly squeezing them to check for soreness/tenderness)

moodiness-- (DUUUUH, tale tale PMS symptom)

increase in appetite-- (since I was more than convinced I was pregnant, I was happy that I could stop being concerned about my weight, so I began to snack more...hey, someone's got to finish all the valentine treats. So of course those two extra pieces of chocolate on a nightly basis had me convinced)

oh and we can't forget about the Implantation spotting and cramps that I experienced---or obviously didn't experience.(darn you imaginary pregnancy)

So how did I celebrate AF's arrival??? With a glass of Reisling that evening!!!
I was not sad about AF's arrival, but yet I immediately got on the computer...went to all of the ovulation calculator websites and mapped out a plan for the month of March. After MC, cycle finally has been a consistent 32 days.(YAAAY, consistency is great!!) I will be more deligent this month. I will carefully monitor CM. I will not feel bad for DH when he complains that he is tired...BD'ing will happen regardless. BD will happen every night of fertile period that it can(DH sometimes works overnight shift),because I will not leave it up to chance that some stragglers will be waiting around. I want my egg to have more than enough swimmers to meet her as she starts her journey.
March is also our anniversary month too, though I will not be fertile on anniversary date...here's to a anniversary month BFP!!!!
