First Cycle charting in a long time...

Mar 02, 2009 09:51

So, this is my first cycle charting in about a year, and when I charted about a year ago, I only charted one or two cycles, the records of which I don't currently have access to. And, unfortunately, I don't have this chart electronically, so, I beesech your help with a logic game.

My fiance and I had PiV sex -- but it's what we lovingly refer to as "Non Catholic" sex, because he did not finish inside me; he didn't even come close to finishing inside me -- on day 22, which was day three past peak mucus and three days after the temperature shifted up and stayed up. My cervix, to the best of my newbie observation skills, was closed and hard for those three days.

So, today is day 31 of my cycle, and I feel like my period is starting all the time. My vagina is squishing around like it ought to be, and my urgency to poop is increased, which usually accompanies the beginning of my period. This makes a 12-13 days luteal phase, which I read was normal, but I recall (and cannot confirm, because I dno't have my charts) that my luteal phase a year ago was 10 days. I recently began eating better -- more whole grains and lentils, less meat, though still not enough fruits and vegetables.

Should I pregnancy test? With four months until the wedding this wouldn't be the end of the world, but we're still so incredibly young and so incredibly broke.
