Can't think of a title...
Nothing all that new to report today, but I wanted to put in a quick journal to get down some of my thoughts.
Moving in 22 days and for once I'm not freaking out about the move. I have most of my stuff packed already. DH helped get some of the stuff packed last week, so a lot of the 'extra' dishes we don't use unless company is over are packed (as we don't have plans for people to come here, too much of a mess right now). He packed my baking stuff (not the ingredients, just the pans/tools), which wasn't a big deal to me, but now that they're packed I want to bake. Oh well, I can wait 3 weeks.
Our building managers did our pre-move out inspection already. I find that immensely stupid. I mean, why do the pre-move inspection over 3 weeks early? All of our stuff is all over the place and most of the walls in the living room are covered by boxes and furniture. DH and I were both out (he was at work, I was getting a hep B vaccine for school) when they came too. They left no information regarding the inspection (like a note saying 'you need to fix this before you move' or anything). Then later in the afternoon they slid a notice through my door stating that they're coming in on Monday to 'measure hardware'. What the heck does that mean? They're probably coming in to measure some of the stuff that they're going to change out when we move out. They always 'update' the apartments as tenants move out if they need it, but another reason for them to change things is the building managers are moving into my apartment after we move out.
It makes sense as my apartment is basically the prime spot for the building managers. Everything they need is located within mere feet of my apartment. Anyway, enough about my move and annoying building managers. On to IF related stuff.
It's CD17 and I've been doing LH test strips for 4 days now. I'm fully expecting the negatives I'm getting, but am anticipating a positive in 3-4 days. I was trying to 'plan out' this cycle, based on my previous 3 cycles and I realized that if AF shows up this month I'll either be JUST finishing on moving day or right smack dap in the middle of her visit. Not cool.
The last 3 cycles have been thus: 1st: 36 days long, ovulation on day 22; 2nd: 38 days long, ovulation on day 22; 3rd: 34 days long, ovulation on day 20.
CD34 is 5 days before we move (AF lasts 4-5 days), CD36 is two days before moving day and CD38 is moving day. And just because I know AF loves to mess with me, I'm fully expecting her to show up on CD36, but I will find out for sure when she SHOULD arrive based on what day I ovulate.
DH and I have difficulty with BDing regularly. Partly because I have a low libido to begin with and the other part is the IF strain/stress. We've been trying to BD at least every other day and I'm trying to get myself interested in it so that we can bump up to every day now (to cover the days before ovulation should I ovulate on CD20). I know it'll only be a week or so of BDing every day, but man does that seem daunting! Also, I need to make a note to call my RE's office regarding that odd sensation I had last cycle as it's back. I'll call on Monday and see if they think it's anything significant and if they want to do an u/s.
