So, I went in for my first serum progesterone yesterday. I have to say that it was one of the most traumatic experiences with needles ever! The phlebotomist stuck my right arm first and he couldn't get anything out of it so he started moving the needle around! It was horrible. I told him that they always have better luck with my left arm because I have a super prominent vein. He switched to the left and I didn't even feel it! My right arm still hurts even now. :( I will be calling in for my test results probably sometime today. A higher-than-normal result on the test could mean pregnancy as well.
It's now day 26 of my cycle and I ovulated on day 16. My temps have been elevated since right after ovulation and have still not dropped which means that I could be pregnant. I think it's a small possibility but the possibility is still there! That's a good thing! This is the first time that I have really thought it was a 'maybe'. Oh, when I say my temperatures have been elevated, I mean WAY elevated. Before ovulation, I average about 97.5-97.7. My temps have been as high as 98.2 (this morning). It doesn't seem like a huge difference but it is when you are looking at BBT and temp differences! I have already taken a pregnancy test but it was negative. I think it would be too soon for a positive anyway though.
Now, I will tell you that we have been super excited to get pregnant and nothing would change how happy we would be but I need to have a small rant about the timing if we are right now. We are planning a vacation to Disneyland soon and I wouldn't get to ride all of the rides! Of course, it will still be magical and of course, we will both be far more happy than disappointed but what timing?! I'll update as soon as I know the results!
