Backstory: We just started TTC. I had my IUD out in August and the Dr. warned me that my periods might revert to their previous horribleness (think of the Shining...yah it was like that). So I keep getting BFN (period was supposed to start Saturday) and he tells me to take it easy because we just started trying.
To me, I feel extremely crazed inside, everything is unusual and I feel like this (period symptoms or pregnancy symptoms). And also like this (I have no idea what I'm doing).
It then occured to me that his body behaves the same, predictable way, every day of the year. So here is my attempt to explain to him what being in my body feels like, as I can feel the changes in my cycle due to IUD removal...but not 100% sure what is going on myself.
Confused? Yah me too. Except instead of trying to read it, I'm FEELING it. I've always been really in tune with my body, and I feel like I'm trying to understand someone speaking in a language I've never heard of before who doesn't have expected cultural norms (nod for yes, shake head for no, smile means happy).
I'm okay if I'm not pregnant, I know it takes time, but WTF body. Y U NO ACT NORMAL!?

It's just tripping me up because my body is doing crazy different things.
See your body does the same thing all the time. It's predictable, so if something changes...you know something is wrong.
Imagine if your body did different stuff depending on what day in a 25 day cycle you were at (my cycle has always been short)
Now, your body is now predictable at each point in the cycle, so when X, Y and Z happen you know that it's early in your cycle
and when P, Q, R, S happen you know it's late in your cycle. The same things happen every time.
Well! Triangle, helicopter and bee are now happening
plus X, R and S
and X and S are 40 times stronger
Y is MIA
and R is kinda somewhere between 2 and T
