Update on things...

Wow! I really suck at keeping a blog! lol It's been like 2 months since my last post! I have got to do better! I've had a lot of stuff going on lately with family, work, etc., so that is my excuse! I figured it's time to update a little.

The good news is that my AFs have been coming every month again, which is great! BUT, this last month, I started spotting on CD21, got what I think is AF on CD25, and continued spotting until July 13th, which means I spotted and had AF for a total of 15 days! It was just very strange. I think it might have something to do with the fact that I stopped taking the Vitex on CD10 of last cycle, so maybe my body was just readjusting. I really hope that maybe I'll be normal again soon. I am also not charting this cycle. I tried to get back into it last month, but I was just not into it at all, so decided to stop when I started spotting. I just feel like it's useless for me to chart if I never see that I ovulate! It's very discouraging to chart month after month, and never get cross-hairs.

Chris upset me last night because we haven't BDed for 3 days, and I told him we needed to. He said, "We don't have to tonight!", because he wanted other things, if you know what I mean. It made me mad because I was having some pains on my right side, like I *might* have been O'ing, and I told him that. He either doesn't care, or just doesn't get that a woman is only fertile for a few days out of the month, and if you don't have sex during that time, then you CAN'T get pregnant! I yelled at him about it, and just let it go. Later, he decided he wanted to BD, so we did. I just don't get him sometimes! It's like, he says he wants a baby just as much as I do, but in order for that to happen, you have to have sex! Last month we only BDed maybe 5 times the whole month! That's not normal for us. Of course, we did have a lot of stress with everything going on with family members and other things, but we are usually intimate more than 5 times a month! I'm hoping this month we'll be able to BD more. He says it will happen when it's meant to, but I'm thinking, it ain't gonna happen if we don't BD when I'm fertile! UGH! It's very frustrating sometimes.

Other than TTC, we're just living life one day at a time right now. My Dad is recovering well from his surgery. Hopefully we'll get to go visit one day this next week. My brother is doing great as well. He actually is going to the Dr. today to find out if he can start physical therapy for walking again. Our niece's B-day was Sunday, and today is Chris' sis's B-day. I've been working full time hours at work even though I'm considered part time. More money, but less time to do things I need to get done! I really want to go somewhere even if it's just for a couple days. I've got the traveling bug. I've been looking on Google Maps at all the beaches. lol I really just want to be on a beach somewhere right now! Hopefully everything will calm down soon!
