I GOT MY PERIOD!
Despite my aching body and the rediculous cramps that accompany my period - I am so happy it is here and only a few days late. I'm so glad I held off on taking the progesterone pills, I know that they were an option if my period had taken much longer but I'm so glad I waited instead of starting them the first day I was late.
Not only do we get to start Clomid sooner (with the progesterone pills, I'd take them for 10 days and probably wait another week or so before seeing my period) but I am also glad that I'm not taking another pill and pumping my body with more hormones that I didn't need given only a handful of days later my period came.
I kept hoping it would come along, I was temp charting again this month and my chart looked great (temp rise around day 20 which remained up until yesterday when it dropped to welcome my period today) when I compared this chart to my one back in March you could tell right away by how irratic it was that I probably didn't ovulate that cycle (despite all my hopes and wild wishes). I didn't stress this month like I had in the past with charting, when I woke up (usually around the same time but, a half hour here and there wasn't a huge stress when it happened) as long as I had more than four hours of steady sleep it was good. While I was so hopeful with my chart I couldn't help but wonder if my period would even show up, I mean it went galavanting at parties or something for four long months why would it bother to show up now? But it did, yay!
Ahh, I am so happy.
ETA: aha, I know I'm probably one of few that actually gets excited like this? I guess it is just that my period showing up means I have a fighting chance at getting pregnant - no regular period means no ovulation and we all know that no ovulation means no pregnancy. So while I wish instead I had a positive pregnancy test I'll take my regular period if it means I have a shot at getting pregnant next month haha.. still sound crazy? okay.
