Hugs for everyone!

Thanks so much for the check in @rubysi. How are you, love?

I am just chilling. I had a temp increase today and if that trend continues, my body may actually be functioning on its own!! 

:-O [-O<

I am pretty amazed. Especially since it may have happened earlier than it's ever happened w/o meds. I am in shock. Now I wished I temped this weekend. Oh well. If I did O, we had not great timing, but surprisingly, I am ok with that. Yay for me!!

QOTW: I LOVE turkey. Also, my cream cheese pound cake.

I am glad your cycle is running like it is on meds. That is a good sign. Cream cheese pound cake sounds awesome...

I am doing ok thanks for asking. It is the busiest week of the year at my job and I am exhausted.

Thanks for the check in, it is always really nice to see.  

Big news of the week is that I got my period back, 4 weeks to the day after the D&C so that is great. Weird and emotional, but obviously a good thing. 

@crimpgirl So sorry it's taking so long for yours to arrive. 

I know it is boring but I LOVE stuffing. Now it's gluten free stuffing which is not as good but that's ok :-)

Hey all. This week is going well I think. First time using OPKS and according to ff my predicted O day is tomorrow. It's day 2 of negatives so I'm worried I Od early? (Tmi time) Still waiting to see if my cervical mucus is going to change.... Feeling impatient and a little confused...

@rubysi I hope next week is better for you! Are you working at a store? @megrae12‌ glad you're body is self regulating!!! I'm on my limited exercise regime now as per the doctor hoping to get my period back (now 68 days after miscarriage. I go for blood work this week and a pelvic exam next week trying to find the reason. Also trying to relax as per docs instructions. Less exercise isn't helping that one!!! Thanks giving food: I love the potatoes, potato anything is ammmmaaaazing!!! Happy thanksgiving to the American bumpies!!!!

Do you have any inactive hobbies? You just need to keep the mind busy. I know that is easier said than done. Potatoes and I have been long time friends...

I am glad your body has bounced back. They tend to be bittersweet. Hugs.

Are you using the wondfo's? It is sometimes hard to catch the surge with those. They usually take a cycle or to to find the right time of day for you. It might take multiple tests in a day to find it.

@scoutmaxwell Yay for AF! I hope she is not to bad for you. 

@crimpgirl I am sorry about the limited exercise. That has to sucks.

They might still suffer from the hard to catch your surge. Try at different times morning , afternoon and evening. The wondfo's only caught it in the evening for me. You will probably need to not pee for a few hours in between tests.

@rubysi thanks for getting me to see it a different way. I took your advice on the non active hobbies. I like to bake, but never have time, so I'm getting ready for a cookie swap. I also play in a band and we have our Christmas concert next week, so I'm throwing myself into practicing (which I need!!!) Mmmmn, if I knew how to gif (and wasn't mobile) I would find a pic of a hashbrown casserole for us to drool over

I like baking too. It is my holiday go to gift. I also eat less treats when I bake. Don't get me wrong my baking is delicious but it is something about smelling cookies all day makes me feel like I have been eating them. What is your favorite cookie recipe?

I am not sure how to mobile gif. The bump broke last February for me and I have to use html to have images. No short cuts for this girl.
