R/R/CS: I'm cool. I love Thursdays. Friday is tomorrow and my shows are on tonight woop woop.
GTKY: If you could pick one song to play every time you enter a room, what would it be and why? This is a really hard and weird question, so sorry y'all. I'd pick You Make My Dreams by Hall & Oates. ETA: Why? Because I like the beat and it's fun and happy.
I might have to post and run today, but I'll be back. I hope you all have an awesome day.

WAYDTGKU?: Clomid + TI, also temping and starting OPKs next week
R/R/CS: I haven't had any side effects from the Clomid... yet. I've had a headache off and on (mostly on) for a few days, but that started before I was even taking it so I don't think it's related.
GTKY: If you could pick one song to play every time you enter a room, what would it be and why? This is a hard one, I might have to come back to this after I wake up. Curious to see everyone else's answers though!

WAYDTGKU?: everything
R/R/CS: my period is on day 4, it has always been 3 days. I'm taking it as a positive. I've noticed every month that my body has worked something new out for my cycle. Last month my cm improved, this it's my period extending, I guess it's all regulating after the pill and working out its new pattern.
GTKY: If you could pick one song to play every time you enter a room, what would it be and why?
Chandelier by Sia. It makes me feel bad ass. I'd also like a wind machine to blow my hair back when I enter the room. Everyone would stop and stare and think God she's so cool.

WAYDTGKU?: PNVs, BBT, hanging out with AF...
R/R/CS: Started reading TCOYF last night, yay! I think DH thinks I'm crazy, if only our men knew how much this whole process consumes us.
GTKY: If you could pick one song to play every time you enter a room, what would it be and why? Tough question, but I'm going with Usher - Yeah. haha. It brings back the good old college days and who doesn't want to dance to that song? It'd make a great entrance every time, maybe not always appropriate, but entertaining at least. (you know you're singing it in your head now - peace up, A-Town!)

R/R/CS: Decent temp drop today...hoping for O! Or it could just be my temps being crazy...or me being crazy.

Gah. This is tough. I feel like Avett Brothers are kinda the soundtrack to my life...so one of their songs!

R/R/CS: I'm pretty sure AF has left the building
GTKY: If you could pick one song to play every time you enter a room, what would it be and why? I'm not sure which song but I feel like it should be a Blink-182 or Flogging Molly song.

WAYDTGKTFU: temping, charting, PNVs
R/R/CS: H is having a follow up appointment for pre-hypertension today. They gave him three months to get is BP down, other than reducing beer he let the time slip away, and now he's probably going to need medication. I feel all sorts of feelings. Worried that he will be ok (he's older than me), frustrated that it was preventable, worried about the financial implications since we're also on a payment plan right now for thousands of dollars in dental bills. He's not overweight, just inactive, so hopefully this will be the wake up call he needs to get to the gym for his health. Nothing I do helps, whether I try nagging or positive reinforcement. I really hope he can get off the meds quickly. He's only 37, I feel too young for this. Sorry for vent.
GTKY: I'll go with my favorite song, Under Pressure.
CD: 1
WAYDTGKU?: PNV, BBT, CM, OPKs, Tea, Yoga, Meditation (it's worth a shot, right?)
R/R/CS: My temp started to drop 3 days ago and AF finally arrived this morning, which is different from past cycles. The weird/good thing is my LP increased by a day. Last cycle was my 3rd since charting and 4th after stopping BC. I have had an 11 day, 12 day and now a 13 day LP. So I am going to try to look at the positive and not be down about AF starting. Besides, I knew when my temp started to drop 3 days ago she was on her way, so I have had time to mourn. I have a bunch of books on fertility yoga and also on fertility diet arriving today. I figure reading them can't hurt! So I'm looking forward to being a book worm over the weekend!
GTKY: If you could pick one song to play every time you enter a room, what would it be and why? Firework by Katy Perry. I just like that it's an upbeat and positive song, and that's how I try to live each day

@Xstatic3333 My H is 36 and is on BP meds. He has the opposite problem, he goes to the gym regularly but his diet is God awful. His father died in his 50's from a heart attack and I'm constantly on him to get his shit together. No amount of nagging works. He was also told that his cholesterol was too high and was given 3 months to make changes. Zero changes have been made so I feel where you're coming from. FX that both of our H's can get it together! I understand the anxiety you're going through. *hugs*

@Beary67 - Sorry for CD1. All the wine for you!
Month/Cycle: 14/10
CD: 1? FX this spotting turns into AF sooner than later
WAYDTGKU?: Seeing the dr tomorrow to talk about our options...
R/R/CS: I haven't been sleeping well lately. I think it's our mattress. DH got it before we lived together and while I had a say in what we got I didn't get that much of a say in it. I want a new one, but it doesn't seem like the responsible thing to do since this one is only 4 years old and was crazy stupid expensive. Ugh, adulting is hard.
GTKY: If you could pick one song to play every time you enter a room, what would it be and why? What's harder than picking your favorite movie? This! Hmmm...Ohmygosh, so many songs going through my head right now! Sexy Back by JT? Wrecking Ball by Miley? Shake it Off by T Swift? Yeah, any of those three depending on my mood.
@babymish ugh my period has only ever been 4 days and i'm still spotting on day 6 right now, it's driving me crazy. it was also heavier than normal this month. i hate it.
Month/Cycle: 2 (NTNP)
CD: 6
WAYDTGKU?: temping mostly. sex again once my stupid period ends. if it ever ends.
R/R/CS: Nothing today really. My temp finally started going down toward my normal pre-O zone. And DD slept through the night again last night, so i'm almost ready to say that her week long middle of the night wakeups were a phase that is over (but i know as soon as i actually call it i'm sure she'll start doing it again).
GTKY: If you could pick one song to play every time you enter a room, what would it be and why? God this is really hard. I was rocking out to Oops I Did It Again in the car on the commute home last night, so I'll go with that? no matter how many years it has been, i can still do every step of choreography from that video. Shout out to the 90's on 9 station on Sirius.
CD: 6
WAYDTGKU: just HIO, need to start temping but I might wait one more month
R/R/CS: I really need to start temping and reading that book y'all talk about but I have to order the thermometer and book online because I live in the middle of nowhere and I just can't seem to get it together to order them.
GTKY: If you could pick one song to play every time you enter a room, what would it be and why?
I have no idea. I'm not a big music person. But I would probably do "God Made Girls" by Raelynn.
***Question in WAYDTGKU
Month/Cycle: 2/2
CD: 10
WAYDTGKU:
Omg- I can't get this off bold!!!!!
stupid mobile. The usuals. Was going to try OPK this month but thanks to this board and some research I got some fakes sold by "Wondfo". So now I need to wait for Amazon to pay shipping, send it back, get a refund and order new ones. The worst.
Anyone in Canada have experience ordering and have suggestions from a seller that's not crazy expensive??
R/CS: I had so many dreams last night i was pregnant and that I kept turning tests. Woke up thinking..maybe!! Realized I haven't even O'd yet. Ugh.
GTKY: If you could pick one song to play every time you enter a room, what would it be and why?
this is a really hard question!!!
id say "we go together" or another ago from grease because I secretly wish life was a musical sometimes!!! (Even though I don't have a musical bone in my body)
CD: 5
WAYDTGKU?: PNV, Soon sex ED/EOD (haha I read that as sex education and I'm the one typing... wow I should go back to bed), today was day 1 of 100mg Clomid (ugh nervous), and um, oh, OPKs later. Right now just waiting for AF to leave.
R/R/CS: Just nervous about the Clomid stuff... I wasn't expecting this, and so soon. Oh well. Other than that everything is okay I guess.
GTKY: If you could pick one song to play every time you enter a room, what would it be and why? I would have to take this approach sarcastically, mostly for shock value. So something like "milkshake" or whatever could get the best response.
CD: 19
WAYDTGKTFU: PNV+DHA (which I forgot to take last night bc I jumped into bed trying to get some nookie), temping + charting, sex while trying to be patient of hubby's performance anxiety
R/R/CS: I've had EWCM the past few days which increased yesterday. I woke up with pretty telltale O cramping on left side this AM even before looking at the huge temp drop
on my BBT, so Fx for today being O day. With that said, I'm now irrationally googling "luteal phase defect" even though this is my first cycle temping, was sick the first few days of my cycle and am still BFing 2-3x/day. I did read a thread over on 1T yesterday about women with short LP having no issue conceiving, so that made me feel a bit better. Fx for a temp increase tomorrow and a few good temp days to confirm the O I didn't think was coming.
GTKY: Garth Brooks' Unanswered Prayers...
Month/Cycle: 3/4

WAYDTGKFU: temping, OPKs, PNV, EPO (starting this month)
R/R/CS: Having a much better ttc day than I have been having. The anger of AF arriving is gone, and now I'm just ready to hit that FW.
GTKY: Backstreet Boys. Anything BSB would be incredible while walking into a room.
CD: 7
WAYDTGKTFU: EPO, increased my calcium back to 1300mg 3x/day, pnv, temping, charting, attempting CP/CM monitoring, SMEP, PreSeed (so almost everything?)
R/R/CS: I'm only 7 days in but my chart looks so preeeetty! It's about to be a mess though cause I go back on nights tomorrow, so bye bye pretty temp ribbon and hello Rocky Mountains
GTKY: either Smooth Criminal by Michael Jackson or Hate On Me by Jill Smith (PS I totally think about this question every time I go to a baseball game and see all they players walk up songs).
@xstatic3333 - my DH also had quite high BP when he was in his early to mid 20s despite being very active. I stopped cooking with salt entirely and we cut out a lot of processed food and lunch meat and he's now in the normal range. It's good he's going for follow up though. My FIL was given 6 months to lose weight to help deal with his sleep apnea....his solution was to just not go back for follow up...
@MRSCORKER and @Xstatic3333 fx your husbands can get on board with taking steps to be healthier. My H has some health issues too, and although they weren't really preventable, it's still scary and it sucks.
@NovaSaysNo I was/am pretty nervous about starting Clomid too. Fx it works for both of us!

R/R/CS: I have had such a bad backache the last few days. I have been trying to work on my posture, especially with sitting at a desk all day.
GTKY: If you could pick one song to play every time you enter a room, what would it be and why? I am more of an indie / folk / alt country fan, but I've gotta go with something raunchy and sassy. "Bossy," by Kelis is my jam. It would make me feel (and probably everyone else) that I am the baddest bitch in the room. Haha.

R/R/CS: af is just causally hanging around.. Thought I'd be done early but nope. Not so much
GTKY: If you could pick one song to play every time you enter a room, what would it be and why?
hmmmmm... Something fun. Either Blink 182 'What's My Age Again' or Harvey Danger's 'Flagpole Sitta'. Crazy/fun and makes you go, what? Totally me.
CD: 7
WAYDTGKU?: HIO starting last night, charting, PNV, and OPKs and EPO arrived yesterday! I was a little nervous to take EPO after having read some stories from people who didn't tolerate it well. I tend not to tolerate some supplements, but this went fine.
R/R/CS: I am in the crabbiest mood today. I woke up in a bad mood. There's really no reason for it except that I'm dreading my afternoon classes today.
Thanks to those of you who were so sweet about Day 1 of my renewed commitment to better nutrition.
GTKY: If you could pick one song to play every time you enter a room, what would it be and why? Til the Water's All Long Gone by The Decemberists. Because it's beautiful and a little sassy and that guitar lick just gets me every time.
@Xstatic3333 My DH has been on BP medication for about a year (since he was 28) for pre-hypertension. They also gave him three months to get his BP down, which it did, but not enough. His mom has high BP as well, so I guess he has always had high BP his whole life. He eats well and exercises, and with medication, it's on the high end of normal. I'm worried he's going to have to be on it forever.
@jparli Good call on the BSB. That's my second choice
Month/Cycle: 4/4

WAYDTGKU?: PNV, EPO, Temping, OPK, CM
R/R/CS:AF is officially gone, and DH is off work this weekend, so I'm going to try pull out all the sexy stops. Which will probably just end up like this:
Also - unrelated funny story:
Yesterday, a coworker asked what the day was. I replied that it was the 5th. Another person said, no, it's the 3rd. I insisted, NO. It's the 5th. He pulls up his phone, and sure enough, it was the 3rd. Then I realized...yesterday was my CD5. Hopefully I have not been dating all of my work materials by my cycle dates instead of their actual calendar dates.
GTKY: If you could pick one song to play every time you enter a room, what would it be and why?
This is a hard one. I'm going to go with Renegades of Funk by Rage Against the Machine.

R/R/CS: I'm feeling pretty good today, no complaints.
GTYK: This is a tough question but I'm going to have to go with anything by the Spice Girls. They get me so amped up! It's to the point now that Pandora sends me push notifications wanting me to start my Spice Girls radio channel every Friday.

WAYDTGKU?: Temping and PNV for now, OPKs and starting trying to check CM soon.
R/R/CS: It's my Friday! And I finally slept last night!
GTKY: If you could pick one song to play every time you enter a room, what would it be and why? This is hard. I guess for now I'll go with Shut Up and Dance by Walk the Moon, assuming we can change the song over time. It just makes me happy.

CD: 11
WAYDTGKU?: BD EOD, BBT, OPKs, CM
R/R/CS: Started with the OPKs yesterday, last month I wasn't able to turn a positive so hopefully that will be different this time around. My temps are also a mess and I have noticed that every time after BD the next morning my temp drops. It is very interesting but makes pinpointing O very difficult. Last month it went from CD 12 to 14 and then to 17...ugh.
GTKY: If you could pick one song to play every time you enter a room, what would it be and why?
Run the World - Beyonce, because who doesn't want to be reminded they are a bad ass woman every time they walk into a room. Also I totally agree with you @babymish about the wind machine, pretty much a requirement for this song.
CD: 12
WAYDTGKU?: BD when we can (hopefully ED from now until I O), Temping, CM, CP
R/R/CS: My husband and I have opposite work schedules Tuesdays and Wednesdays, so we missed 2 days of BDing. Hopefully I still have a few more days before O, though I had a bit of EWCM this morning when I checked, so we'll see.
ETA: Ugh, I just saw that I got a warning for a comment I made yesterday! How many warnings do they give you before banning your account?
GTKY: If you could pick one song to play every time you enter a room, what would it be and why?
I'm surprised no one has answered this yet, but none. Why would I want everyone to notice every time I walk into a room? What if I'm late to a meeting or church or something one day (I'm not a late person, but it could happen!) and I want to just sneak in quietly? I wouldn't be able to.
Don't be afraid to ask questions and watch other, more experienced people in the class to get your positioning right...everyone has to start somewhere! Get to class a bit early if you can, and let the instructor know it's your first class - he or she will likely pay a little more attention to you to make sure you're settling in okay! Good luck and namasté

WAYDTGKU?: all the stuff besides opks
R/R/CS: nothing. I just really liked this gtky!
GTKY: If you could pick one song to play every time you enter a room, what would it be and why?
100% bring 'em out by TI!!! I prefer country, rock, and punk 99% of the time but that song is MY SONG! It's actually the song I had my wedding party and me and husband use for our entrances!

WAYDTGKU: all the acronyms. Adding preseed this month
R/R/CS: nothing really. Starting to think something fishy might be going on in my luteal phase. I appear to definitely be ovulating, but my temp has plummeted around 6 DPO for a few months now and generally stays around my coverline til AF (12 day LP). It just doesn't stay up like it should. Does that sound suspect? Or am I just obsessing a bit too much?
I'm temping vaginally (mouth breather) and open circles are time-related. But the general trend in prior months looks like this, even with steady temp times.
GTKY: Big Balls by AC/DC. It was actually our entrance song at our wedding reception
