update with good news!

Good news! I ovulated sometime between January 11 and January 15, as the bloodwork drawn on Jan 15 was consistant with "recent ovulation." I did some counting, and my cycle lengths post pregnancy have been 42 and 45 days, and that test means I ovulated between days 27 and 31. I dont know what that means for next month. Right now, I'm on day approximately 39. There is a slim possibility I could be pregnant. Slim, but there. So once my period starts, hopefully within the next few days(??), I can assume I will ovulate around the same time, 27-31 days later. I might try the OPKs at home, because the bloodwork indicates AFTER you've ovulated, which would be too late to do anything about it. But with the OPKs at home, it tells you when you might be likely to ovulate within the next 1-2 days.

Sigh. I never thought I'd become one of THOSE women. Obsessively charting and then reporting way TMI on my body functions. But... here I am. In full swing. And I'm not enjoying the ride.

I'm just DESPERATE to start a subsequent pregnancy blog, and this is all I have right now. Instead of this blog sitting idle, I guess that's why I'm reporting this stuff. Just so the "subsequent pregnancy" blog can actually exist. I'm pretty sure I don't have any readers yet anyway, so this is just my own tracking. For now. I want my second baby. I want the one I already had.. more than words could possibly describe... but the second one is all I can hope for.
