Hubby and I both had food poisoning around the time I should've been ovulating ... not a romantic time - at all ... but the barfing subsided and the mood struck :)<br /><br />2. Just my toddler and I traveled to the east coast for a wedding, and I was a little disappointed because we'd been trying for a few months and I was going to be traveling during my ovulation window. Well, hubby and I were plenty happy to see each other after a week apart ... and apparently that cute little egg was still hanging out in there ... because we conceived the day I got back!<br /><br />Both were somewhat unexpected - because the stress of it had escaped me in those moments.<br /><br />I think conception is miraculous no matter how it happens :)MommyBrainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16329570417513248245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4148013185139828436.post-44601261178280047162009-10-02T12:33:18.598-04:002009-10-02T12:33:18.598-04:00I used the same ovulation calendar you did and LOV...I used the same ovulation calendar you did and LOVED it. Not only did it help me understand, but I got to give my hubby a little lesson in how it all works because apparently boys aren't taught that stuff in middle school health class. Who knew?! In any case, that helped tremendously, and I totally credit the education I got there with helping us know when to, um......yeah. It was such a blessing - more than I can possibly say - that we conceived the first month, because I would have been NUTS otherwise. God knew what I could handle!<br /><br />Oh, we tried the whole measuring my body temperature thing, too, but that didn't work. We couldn't notice any trends whatsoever, so just quit halfway through.Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12765673372975518220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4148013185139828436.post-82441674508692631142009-10-02T10:18:38.286-04:002009-10-02T10:18:38.286-04:00Hi! I know what you mean by "all business.&q...Hi! I know what you mean by "all business." For us we had a two month "window" so that I could be away from work/school from sept-sept, so that short window increased the stress of it all. The first month we had no luck, because as you also said, I had no clue about my true cycle off the pill. I calculated my fertile times all wrong, because I based it on very little knowledge of my "true cycle." The next month we were super busy with report cards, work stuff, and family visits. However, we managed to find the time, because Abby was conceived in November without even really knowing again my fertile days and without the "getting down to business" attitude of the month before (because we were so busy!) Anyway. I also agree that the more you think about it the more stress you feel, which I think can affect your body. But it's not an easy thing to be relaxed about!<br /><br />AngeleneAngelenenoreply@blogger.com
