Another month has past and we have tried new things to try to conceive. According to my phone, I am scheduled to start my period on 1/15. So we'll see if that happens. (Hopefully it doesn't) This may be TMI, so those reading this have been warned and if you're worried, now is the time to stop reading if you don't wanna know! Normally after intercourse, we both get up right away and shower. Well, that being said, a lot of the sperm falls out. The reason we were in such a hurry to get up and clean up is because of my history with UTIs. So this month we decided to stay there longer and I actually tried not to get up at all. I would just get dressed laying down and go to bed after just cleaning up with wipes. So far, no UTI has come of that.. but that COULD change. (Hopefully not cuz they SUCK!) We're hoping that will be the trick and we will conceive this month, but we'll see! I have a new app on my phone that I have been using the past month to track ovulation, intercourse, mood, mucus, etc. (all that fun stuff!) The app is called Ovia. I actually really like it. It is so much more detailed and customizable than any other that I've tried so far. You can enter things like obviously your period... intercourse, mucus consistancy, hours of sleep, physical activity, food/drink intake, moods, symptoms, ovulation test-pregnancy test- taken/not taken, and it seems like even more! So as a result of entering all the period info alone, they will tell you when you're ovulating. Not only that, but rate the days of ovulation showing what day(s) you are most fertile. It's been interesting.
I just want to know if this is the month and if it's not, how much longer are we going to be waiting? Obviously, it will happen when God is ready for us to have a child, but I wish I knew so I could mentally prepare myself. I'm not impatient at all as you can tell.
