I OVULATED yesterday

Feb 08, 2010 14:37

I wanted to write this yesterday but when I came to log onto the internet my system had crashed yet again. We have a bad connection and Virgin are supposed to be coming out to recable on 11th. It'll be interesting to see if they cancel for the third time??

Anyway...

Last year I did one of those tests you do on day 3 of your period (count start day as day one) to see how my egg reserves were for that month and they were good.

There are some indicators a woman can use to see if she's ovulating, one is elevated temperature, the other is discharge.  I've never been brave enough to do the test before.

I want children, always have done.

But being single alot not much opportunity for it to happen naturally.

When I was 26 a doctor did some hormone tests and told me with a smile "that I would never get pregnant and if I did I would miscarry". Fantastic. BITCH...

Now that I'm looking for either a sperm donor which is proving difficult or a lifelong partner, also proving difficult I decided to do an ovulation test this month.

I know I get discharge during month so was quietly hopeful.

I had my last period on 23rd Jan, and began testing 30 Jan. Remembering that when I do my first wee when I get up I need to put a stick underneath. One day last week I was halfway through my first morning wee when I realised I wasn't holding a stick underneath. So I stopped myself, held it in (I know TMI for some, sorry) and rushed to get a stick, open the plastic which is difficult to get it out and then run back to the loo and pop it under the wee stream.

Anyway, yesterday morning, it finally happened, I got 2 magical wonderfu lines show in the indicator section.

It was  truly wonderfu moment. Even shitty Facebook could not wipe the smile from my face.

Doesn't mean I can get pregnant, just means there's hope and one less thing for me to worry about.

So I give a new meaning to the term wii, or wee as I say.

The things we women have to go through.

I have maybe found a sperm daddy, but need to meet him. And get him tested. Ideally it would be great to fall in love and have babies the natural way. But I don't see why I should be prevented from having a baby because I'm single.

And yes, second best if I can't find a lifelong partner, soulmate, would be for one of my male British friends and acquaintances to offer. But they haven't. I don't feel I can ask them. I think they'd all say no and I don't want to damage the friendships I have with them by asking. But it would be so lovely for one of them to offer.

Such is life
