Do You Have A Conceivable Cycle?
What is a Conceivable Cycle? And do you have one? The first step to discovering this is to take your body basal temperature (BBT) and note it down on a chart. Most people take their temperature as a way to see when they ovulate, but did you know that your BBT chart shows way more than just ovulation?
Bet You'd Never Think To Celebrate Your Period
You feel like you've been doing everything right. Exercise, food, early nights and timing the baby dance through your fertility window. You're two days late and you convince yourself that you're pregnant... then you get your period. You feel a black cloud descends, as you retreat from the world for a day or two to eat chocolate and binge on Netflix. The fertility diet goes out of the window. You question all the effort that you put in this month and rebel by doing the opposite for a couple of days.
7 Ways To Analyse Your BBT Chart For Fertility
Do you take your BBT temperature, but have no idea what your chart means? Maybe you’re just looking at when you ovulate, but don’t pay attention to the other details.
Charting is not just about when you ovulate. When you analyse your chart, then it will help you to work out what is missing, where your hormones are out of balance and what tests you need to get.
Project Baby
Trying to get pregnant is not like any other project you’ve done before. Normally when you have a problem you jump on Google, you research it, you ask your friends and you figure it out.
Praise What You Want
One of the biggest challenges that I hear of time and time again is the struggle of being around other pregnant women. You want to be happy for them, but the bigger thought that comes up is: ‘Why not me?’ and ‘When is it my turn?’
Hope And A Strategy
You’re amazing! I mean it. I see the courage that you have to keep trying for your baby. The strength that you showed over Christmas hitting another milestone without being pregnant. And the determination that you have to do almost anything to bring your baby home.
Two Giant Pigs And Two Magic Lines
I like to play a game after Christmas. It goes like this. What was your best Christmas present? What was your worst Christmas present? And what was your strangest Christmas present?
