I just feel odd. The test was negative and I don't feel pregnant, but I do feel odd. Next month I am going to assume that I have two fertile days. One when I would normally ovulate and one when I could have a lunar ovulation.
This is kind of odd and not widely accepted. The theory is that you can ovulate any time during your cycle with the phase of the moon that you were born under. I do think you have to be actively trying to conceive in order to spur your body to ovulate again. I was born on a full moon, so I have a chance of ovulating everytime there is a full moon. This month that will be on the 18th day of my cycle, which would be much later than a normal ovulation. So we are going to give it a go on that day also.
The other thing that I am going to do is take my temperature. This is helpful because it will keep me from spending too much money on tests. I did take my second test this morning, because I just hadn't really started yet and sort of still had it my head that I was bleeding from implantation and the test just couldn't detect my hormone levels yet. So with taking my temperature I will see the drop in temp and know that I am not pregnant even if I don't have a full blown period, just spotting.
The key with temperature taking is consistency. I have to take it in the morning, before I get out of bed to get my basal temperature. Then when it goes up, that means that I am ovulating or close to ovulating. It will only go up a half of a degree or so. Then it should stay elevated until the end of the cycle when it will either stay elevated because I am pregnant or it will drop because I will start my period.
So I am going to do both of these different things in February to see if we can have a successful month! We'll see.
