 QOTW: Since teachers are heading back to school this week, it got me thinking about my school days.  What was your favorite and least favorite subject in school? 

 **************************

June Bugs:

@CheesyPeas 6/15/2011 - Looks like you got a +OPK.  I'm sure it's hard during a TTA cycle.  How are you?

@MrsG80inTN 6/4/2014- Sorry if I'm missed an update.  I haven't had a chance to stalk you this week.  I'm guessing your monitoring appointment went well since you triggered.  How many follies did you have?

@kittymeowbark 6/21/2014- I'm so sorry for the BFNs.  Big ((((HUGS))).  How are you doing?

@newfmom7 6/27/2014- We missed you last week.  How are you doing?

@towncargirl 6/27/2014- How did your final wedding go?    

 

If your name is missing from above, please let me know and post an update. Some are not included as we have not heard from you in many weeks.

@rmpar29 -- Thank you for the check-in! How are you?

I am feeling very emotional. Not sure what is going on with my body. My LP is 14 days so today AF should be here, but NOTHING!...This is the first cycle where my temps looked normal and timing was perfect, and now this crap. I am 98% sure I O'd, so I have no clue what to do. I have been on the verge of tears for the past 3 days and I need this cycle to be over with. My temps were going down and then today went right back up, so I dedeided to take another test at 14DPO and another BFN. AHHHHH!!!  I feel like this entire process has made me such a stressful and bitter person. I might need to tale a break from TTC for my own sanity, even though I really do not want to. I just really don't know anymore.
Rant over.

Sorry about that.

Hugs to anyone who needs them today!!!

Well I think my body forgot how to ovulate.  I used to always have multiple days of positive OPKs with O typically coming the day after my first positive (or sometimes the day of my first positive if decided to use FMU instead of testing in the afternoon) but apparently that has changed.  After a week+ of EWCM, I got a single positive OPK and no temp rise.  So either it was a false alarm or my body is still weighing it's options.  I just want things to function properly so that I can feel confident going into next cycle when we're unbenched!  But alas, nothing is ever easy, and bodies (or at least my body) never listen... 

I'm planning to get my blood drawn tomorrow for more clotting panel stuff and am keeping my fingers crossed I might hear back from my doctor before the long weekend hits.

QOTW: My favorite class was math and least favorite was any class that made me write lots of papers.

CheesyPeas

@kittymeowbark, I'm sorry hon.  ((hugs)) I hope your body straightens up and stops messing with your head. 

rmpar29

@kittymeowbark - I'm so sorry that you are struggling so much!  I had two months of 17 day LPs, so I know what a MF it is!  I always said that I'd take a break, but by the time AF was over my head was in a better place.  I hope that your body gets things figured out so you can move on soon honey!  Many, many ((((((HUGS)))))

@CheesyPeas - Ugh...I hate when your body gets so confused.  I'm glad that you are still using OPKs and I hope that you get that O soon.  It may turn out to be an anovulatory cycle too, which is completely normal for a woman to have every now and then.  Keep your chin up honey!

AFM: I've almost finished one pack of BCP, so just one more cycle of TTA before we are cleared.  It's been a good break, but I'm ready to get back to it.

QOTW - My favorite subject was Math and my least favorite was History.  I hate memorizing dates and such...yuck!

@CheesyPeas and @rmpar29 ---thank you both so much. Today has been such a crappy day that I wouldn't know what to do without this board and you ladies. Words can not describe my gratitude!

Hi ladies.  AFM I had my monitoring appt last friday... Had one follicle measuring 18 so I triggered on Friday night.  We may have overdone it on the BD front, but hopefully not... 3 days in a row is a little much, but the trigger happened earlier than I was anticipating.  Humph.  So, now we wait...

ETA - I was best at Math and liked it a lot... I probably least liked English - lol.

MrsG80inTN

@kittymeowbark - I'm sorry about the BFN.  This process is so stressful and I wish it wasn't.  Thinking of you and offering giant hugs.

@cheesypeas - sorry your body isn't behaving well.  I wish our bodies would cooperate.  My clotting panel took a while to come back, hopefully yours doesn't!

rmpar29

@kittymeowbark - I see a good temp drop there, so I hope AF shows up soon and you can move on from this cycle.  I also hope that you are feeling a bit better today love!

@CheesyPeas - It looks like a good temp increase there.  Your temp might be a bit slow to rise this month.  ((((HUGS)))

@MrsG80inTN - Hey lady!  Yay for a good follie and lots of BD.  I don't think you can overdue that so I really, really hope this is your month.  Any plans (besides a crazy work schedule) to distract you during the TWW?

Good news for us, we got our upstairs bathroom ripped out and through in the dumpster before it got picked up today.  I'm currently waiting at home for the carpet installers to come to replace the carpet on the stairway and down the hallway.  They were supposed to be here between 8 and 10 this morning, but they called and said it'd be 1-5 this afternoon.  I have to leave at 2:30 for an appointment so I hope they are here by then.  Sigh...

That's what I'm thinking now too, @rmpar29!  In just looking at my chart, CD 18 looks like it could be the day but the OPK is throwing me off.  I tested 3 times on CD 18, and it was negative every time but it was positive when I checked around 1:00 pm on CD 19 (I'm wishing now I would've tested in the morning on CD 19 too now but oh well).  So either I had some crazy late night LH surge on CD 18 with O following immediately thereafter (which I know is unlikely) or O sometime between CD 19 and CD 21 with a slow rise.  Hopefully the next couple of days hold the answer.  I'm half-banking on a temp dip tomorrow and some neverending anovulatory cycle but perhaps that's just my out-of-control pessimistic side.

Home renovation is so exciting!  How long of a project do you have planned?

MrsG80inTN

@rmpar29 - we have friends coming in town this weekend so that should be nice... We're going to do some nice meals and a couple brewery tours.  Should be fun.  Other than that, fantasy football draft tonight and tomorrow and reading... (I'm reading The Invention of Wings) and just started my fall Bible study as well... That should be enough between all that and work. 

I was distracted enough I forgot to take my temp today.  Oops.

rmpar29

@CheesyPeas - We never really know how long a reno project will take.  My DH is thinking he can have the bathroom finished in a few weeks (only working on weekends and a couple nights a week).  I know better, so I'm betting on a good 6 weeks.  Our house was built by a contractor (who I don't think knew what he was doing) with spare parts, so we never know what we are going to get in to.  Reno is fun, and yet crappy at the same time.  LOL

@MrsG80inTN - Sounds like you have a very full plate, which is good for the TWW.  I really hope that it flies by for you and FX this is your cycle love!!!
