So, kinda couldn't help myself. I took an ear thermometer with my to the gym this morning and at the end of the session I measured up. 37.3 it read. (99.1 for you US folk). I was all like YAY! This is so good! Of course, my joy was short lived when I went home and tested the thermometer I used against the expensive one which I forgot in DS's room. Bah-bow! There was as much as 1.2 degrees difference. Colder. (That's like 2.2 F for the rest of you). Fail. So my temp was technically a low grade fever. Hummmm.... Of course I'm going to have to repeat this test on Monday to make sure...with the good thermometer. LMAO!
Otherwise, FF rested on CD15 (as predicted) for ovulation. Today I had a big dip which will either be the corpus luteum or the fact that I was wearing about three less layers to bed because I felt soooo hot despite the freezing cold. See what happens in the morning.
I'm feeling really good this cycle. My hormone balance must be so different having ovulated at the right time. Normally, I'm all so full of hope, then I pop an egg and them I'm all defeatist like instantly. Right now I feel good. Optimistic. Excited to see how this cycle will play out. I'm full expecting AF to show but I just feel like it is going to be a healthier cycle. :-)
Oh and now that I've got a few more friends and blogs to read, I've created a blog roll. I am not quite happy with its position but it will do for the time being!
Great job adding your Blog Roll! I think it looks good there :) I am so excited that you are keeping an optimistic outlook and feeling good! There are so many times when I read blogs and TTC'ers are down in the dumps and stressing and sad - which I get - but its nice & refreshing to see someone happy & just excited. I fully expect AF as well this month - Tminus 4 days and she should be here! :)
ReplyDeleteI love the experiment you are doing, temping at the gym. Such a good idea vs. googling it silly and getting no good answers. Maybe you should take your temperature before as well as after your workout so that you have a benchmark temp to compare against. Just a suggestion.
ReplyDeleteThanks for adding me to your blog roll! :)
