Ok, so, before i got pg, my periods were very irregular and i rarely ovulated. I have PCOS. my "cycles" would be anywhere from 30-60 days in length
I got my first pp period on my dd's birthday, anad have had fairly regular bleeds about every 30-35 days since then......i don't know if i am ovulating....i haven't been temping (dd still wakes like a zillion times a night, it wouldn't work anyway), but i have been loosely keeping track of cycle days and mucous, using FAM to prevent......in all honesty, given the four years and staggering amount if fertility drugs it took the first time, I'm not real convinced i CAN get preggo naturaly........well...it's been about 30 days since my last period....I've been having lots of EWCM....thought maybe i was O'ing, maybe i was gonna get my period (i always get lots of mucous like O right before my period...and also get really horny, crampy, the exact same symptoms...)....wasn't really sure.....but i was horny as heck and wanted to DTD, but not if i was O'ing...SO...i go to the bathroom last night, and when i wipe, the mucous is pink with blood...so i think..okay, im getting my period, all is safe......so, we dtd.........this morning, i expect full-on AF...
nothing.
More EWCM. But no AF.
CRAP.
I love babies....I love being a mom.......I **want** another baby....but not yet......we've been talking and agonizing over it...and had firmly decided, after much waffling...to give it 5 more months, until dd is 2...then we can try.
It wouldn't be the end of the world.....I'd be happy to have any baby of mine and dh's.......but right now is just NOT the best time, for so may reasons, not the least of which is that dd is SO attached to her milkies, and the fact that, without certain meds, i am terrified the baby won't be healthy or i will miscarry......
ugh.
Just venting.
Gotta go rinse the milkies with vinegar because i suspect the thrushies are trying to stage a coup again......

It just isn't fair that we can't really control our fertility, isn't it? I wish my belly button would give me a reading each morning and tell me what's going on- lol. I wouldn't panic just yet, though the spotting could have been O, it might not have been. If you manage to concieve while nursing, you will most likely be able to continue nursing your dd. If your body can manage to get pregnant while nursing, it can probably continue.
