    R/R/CS: I remembered to temp again hooray! 

    GTKY: Taking from TWW...What are your weekend plans?
    im off today which is nice. I have to go file something at town hall. After that I plan on a run, then doing some shopping and getting a mani/pedi. Tomorrow I'm meeting a friend to shop for another friends baby shower, and then we're having drinks at my place. Hopefully the rest of the weekend just relaxing.

    R/R/CS: FINALLY!!!! Last day in Manila...I work a shorter shift today, then head home. It's a 24 hour travel day on top of work, but I'm glad it's over and to be heading home.


    GTKY: What are your weekend plans? Today is our 11 year anniversary, so hopefully grabbing a nice dinner somewhere on Sunday since I'll be too worthless tomorrow after I land. The weather looks kind of iffy, so it'll depend if it ends up getting nice out. I'd like to just relax by the pool and chill. Regardless, we'll be keeping it low key with nothing much on the agenda. Happy long weekend, ladies! :)

    WAYDTGKU: Being cycle day 1... nothing right now. Yippie skippy for the holiday weekend. NOT. 
    But when it is time, we will be doing another monitored cycle w/RE, trigger shot to O and TI. Continue with the PN's... Eat healthier. Meh, and whatever else comes along that **MIGHT** align the stars :-/

    R/R/CS:
    AF decided to show up this morning. I saw it coming but it still makes me super pissed off and I am doing everything I can to not cry cause I am at work. But all bets are off as soon as I walk out the door. 



    The plus side it is Friday (!!!!) and I can lay in bed and cry and drink wine.

    GTKY: Taking from TWW because I'm a tad hungover... What are your weekend plans?
    Lay in bed and cry and drink wine.. LOL!!! Plus clean, and do laundry and hopefully cook some good food and play some xbox and such.

    ETA: Also charting temp and checking CM. 
    Question though for those who currently/have ever taken the trigger shot: Do you use OPK's during this time to try and pick up your surge? I only ask because reading on the forever correct about everything interwebs, that the trigger/hcg can make you pull a + OPK no matter what even if there is not a surge. ( Ha, my first newbie question)

    GTKY: Taking from TWW... What are your weekend plans?

    So excited for this weekend! Tonight I'm finally getting my current two hamsters feet tattooed on my feet. I have my last two hamsters feet on there so these two will complete my foot! Tomorrow we are going to meet DH's parents and go to Outback Steakhouse which we haven't been to in forever because there isn't one within 2 hrs of our house! I'm a vegetarian so the steak part is lost on me but I love their blooming onion! Then Sunday we're having DH's parents, his cousin and his cousin's GF, and his Aunt up to our place to grill. Weather isn't looking great but we'll make the most of it and have fun.

    WAYDTGKU: I hate this question.

    R/R/CS: Its friday and i have a 3 day weekend so i am excited about that. work has been so stressful lately, combined with TTC stress I really need a break. but so far today I am feeling good. I finally allowed myself to look up what my projected due date would be if I got KU this cycle. And of course now I am all like super excited for it for like 987 gagillion reasons just like every month...le sigh.

    **TW someone elses pregnancy**
    Tonight we got a sitter and are going out for my BIL's birthday. But my SIL (BIL's wife) is 9 months pregnant so she could go into labor at anytime. so those plans are kind of tentative. But either way DH and I get a night out so score! I totally plan on drinking! The rest of the weekend we plan to just hang out and attempt potty training my son. I am imagining a lot of accidents and messes. But hopefully by Tuesday he would have at least went on his potty once.

    haha thanks, @Sandwichlover ;) Enjoy your day off!

    Happy anniversary, @Krys!

    I'm sorry for CD 1 @GrabberBlue2010. I'd come join you if I could :( Hugs and hope your day goes quickly!

    @Daisy621 and @leekat14, let me know if you want to come plant at my house too!

    Enjoy the new tattoo, @marriedhamstermom! I love them!! Pictures later? 

    I'm a terrible CS, @Mythril. Sorry!

    Month/Cycle: 7/8

    CD: 11

    WAYDTGKU: temping, started OPKs this am, EPO

    R/R/CS: Had a slight temp rise (no shocker from my wine last night). Two more and I have dotted CH, which would be about 4 days early for me, so I think it's the wine. Although, my OPK was fairly dark this am and approaching a positive, which I normally don't get until CD 13 or 14. We shall see! HIO just in case :)

    GTKY: Ah, the weekend. I've been a SAHM with my 3 year old for 2 weeks (since the semester ended) and I'm loving every single second, but it's emotionally and physically draining. Mainly because DH gets home and is tired from work, but I'm also tired from my job and still end up doing most of the cooking/cleaning/childcare. I think I'll talk to him about it tonight. He's super receptive when I bring up concerns like this and problem solves well. 

    Tomorrow is a clean the house and the yard and the cars day. Then Sunday, DH is going golfing with his dad, so DS and I will go to their house (on a lake) and go on the boat and relax. I may hit up the outlets that are in the next town over and have my MIL watch DS for a little. Then on Monday we do the Memorial Day parade in our town!

    YAY WEEKEND!

    R/R/CS: Nothing today

    GTKY: Taking from TWW... What are your weekend plans?  We have 2 birthday parties on Saturday (both are nieces, one from each side). I have to find a dress for my BILs wedding next Friday. On Monday, we'll be going to Memorial Day observations in the am, then to my parent's house for a cookout. It's kind of bittersweet because my dad was laid off a few months ago and has been desperately searching for a job. He might be getting an offer in Colorado (we're in MA), which means my parents will be moving.

    @krys Happy anniversary! Great that you will be coming home just in time for that! It's also our anniversary this holiday weekend (Monday).

    Month/Cycle: 7 total, 3 after MC

    WAYDTGKU: AF is gone! Temping. CM. We will start HIO EOD at least.

    R/R/CS: this is the first cycle that I've been temping (3 days only so far) and each day my temp has risen. I'm waiting for it to drop so FF doesn't think I O right after AF (is that even possible?!).

    Woohoo! Friday! 3 day weekend!

    GTKY: Taking from TWW... What are your weekend plans? Nothing really for tonight. I'll probably just clean, relax, and Bump. Saturday afternoon/evening, we are going over to DH's cousin's house for a potluck BBQ. Sunday we are celebrating my (step)son's 9th birthday at an arcade/mini golf type place. And Monday is our 3rd wedding anniversary. We don't really have any plans, and it's supposed to be hot, so we may just stay indoors (HIO?!?!) and go out for dinner somewhere.

    @marriedhamstermom The tattoos sound adorable! And enjoy dinner. I'm jealous!

    @jedially85 Glad you're feeling a little better today. And enjoy your night out! I'm sure you need it, especially with the potty training endeavor you have coming up!

    @wineo929 It's so nice that your DH is receptive to those types of things. I think mine starts to feel like i'm just constantly telling him what he's doing wrong...working on that. Your day at the lake sounds awesome though! Enjoy!

    WAYDTGKU: PNV, tracking cm, temping, FINALLY HIO

    R/R/CS: I was able to rally the troops and HIO last night. It was 10:30 already and way past my bedtime, but i noticed possibly fertile cm so it had to happen. I'm really glad we did though because this morning i had a temp that was higher than all my others so i *might* have ovulated last night. I guess we'll see over the next couple days. I'm still in the honeymoon phase with temping and everything fascinates me!

    GTKY: Taking from TWW... What are your weekend plans? No real plans for the weekend, other than a couple get togethers. But today is my last day of work until NEXT friday! DH and I decided to take a few days off after memorial day and go on a mini vacay. We live in Florida and are driving over to the west coast beaches for a couple days to relax. I'm so so so excited.

The lady leading the workouts is a super cool lady who just had a baby and wants to lose 60lbs.  She has a different workout every day and they are under 20 minutes so I can do them during DS naptime.  I'm really sore from them so I know they are effective even though they are short.  It's a 90 day challenge and today is day 3.... Eek.  The best part about it is, its free!

    @leekat14 That is something I REALLY need to do. I have been putting off getting flowers for the front yard for weeks and I really need to do it. It seems like every time I actually have time to do it, it's storming out.

    WAYDTGKU: I'll start OPKs tomorrow, not temping this cycle. 

    R/R/CS: We got home from vacation late last night, even though we're both still off work until Tuesday. We had a great time, but there's nothing like sleeping in your own bed!

    GTKY: As little as possible. I need to unpack and do some laundry, and we might take the puppy to the dog park tomorrow. Other than that, I really have no plans.

    **question** Am I like, the only one who is not drinking at all while TTC? I was thinking that at my age (which isn't old old, all things considered: I'm 34 and change) I needed to do all things in my favor to help...but man...this shit flat out sucks. I ditched the caffeine too, so between the two, I'm pretty stabby. I'm feeling like as long as I don't go crazy, a few drinks a week should be more than fine, right?

    Please tell me yes.

    I really cannot imagine changing my life completely for something that could take months/year (hopefully not). I guess if there is a known fertility problem, it's a whole different story, but I feel like getting rid of caffeine completely and not drinking would make me feel like a prisoner! Even after you turn that test the baby isn't sharing blood supply for a little bit (not sure on exactly time-frame), so even if you indulged the night before, it isn't an issue! Enjoy your life, once you are pregnant it's all out the window for a while :wink: 

    Hopefully it is a quick journey for you!

    @krys The entire time I have been TTC so about 7/8 months I have abstained from alcohol. Last 3 months or so I completly gave up caffeine too. I know I didnt have to but it just felt better to me and I read that those things can affect fertility. Right everything does right? lol Well obviously I am not pregnant and going to an RE next month so this cycle along with dropping all the bbt, cm, cp crap I have decided to allow myself to have my coffee again and tonight I am totally going drinking. I probably will still abstain during proposed FW time and TWW but for now I am just trying to enjoy myself. But with my DS I completely abstained while TTC so I understand the sentiment of it.

    @krys I've gone to drinking decaf coffee so I'm off the caffeine, and i TRY to not drink every time i'd like to. But I definitely let myself have a beer or a glass of wine a couple days during the week. There's really not a lot of reason to abstain I don't think. I just reel it in a little bit because it makes me feel like that's at least something i can control.

    I started my TTC journey not drinking (except when AF was here), but I've given up on that for the most part. I'm still not drinking a ton, but if I want a drink or two, I do.

    WAYDTGKU: Peeing on OPKs every five seconds trying to catch my LH surge.

    R/R/CS: My CM looks pretty weak this month.  I'm annoyed.

    GTKY: Taking from TWW... What are your weekend plans? Pretty nice little holiday weekend ahead!  We are going to take it easy tonight, and then tomorrow we are going for a run in the morning and I have boot camp at 10, and then we're going out to my friend's house on the beach for barbecuing and shenanigans.  Then Sunday we are going to go over to another friend's house to hang out at their pool.  Monday we might go to my parents' house for more pool-ing, depending on the weather.  I also need to finish a little painting project on my deck furniture at some point.

    @krys based on my post yesterday in WTO, I'm team drink til it's pink ;) I've also been TTC for 8 cycles and would be crazy without it.

     @zoey1019, I'll drink anything red really. My favorite used to be Pinot noir, but I've recently moved to Merlot. Edited to ask: What's your brand of choice?



  • Options
    @wineo929 totally a red lady as well! I LOVE pinot noirs, enjoying good cabs lately as well...

    @Mythril  It looks like you *could* have O'd, but I don't quite believe the CH. Do you usually turn an OPK?

    @jatwal128 I stayed up past my bedtime too last night to HIO. Definitely worth it, especially since I didn't have to work today so I got to sleep in anyway

    @Krys I don't drink at all, but not because I'm TTC, just because I don't like any alcoholic drink I've ever tried. If I did like to drink, I would probably drink until it's pink or at least until I O. I haven't ever read any studies showing that it affects your fertility

    WAYDTGKU: CM, sex

    R/R/CS: I think I still have fertile CM today so it looks like I'm still WTO. I just want to go over to the TWW!

    GTKY: Taking from TWW... What are your weekend plans?
    Other than HIO? Grocery shopping today and church on Sunday. Other than that, just hanging out I guess. We did stuff out during the week instead, so this is our relaxing time.
