WAYDTGKU? PNV, temping, charting, waiting for O/AF.
R/R/CS: I made an appointment for my annual (and to talk about potential cycle concerns) for next Friday.
GTKY: I've recently inherited a surger and would like to learn so I can diy some baby things- like a bapron. As for skills, I've always had a difficult time interpreting older literature. My literal brain does not do well at interpreting art. My mind just doesn't work that way and struggled through every English class. I'd be nice if I could read/understand some of the Classics.
Sidenote: I started out failing English class in high school and at the parent/teacher conference my mom deciphered through buzzwords (she's a secretary at a school) that my teacher thought I should be in special ed. Apparently half the problem was the way she worded her questions on quizzes and tests, asking for MY opinion. My opinion was not what she taught us in class so I was getting the questions wrong. God forbid anyone think out of the box.
Honorable mentions: Biggest IF support sister, sweetest bumpie, most genuine, LFAFer you'd most like to visit, great things come in small packages, pocket sized babe
WAYDTGKU? Trying hard to remember to Temp every morning, Going to use OPKs this cycle and track CM. Drink more water.
R/R/CS: Just waiting for AF to be gone so we can start EOD sex. Question: is pre-seed the only sperm friendly lube on the market? Does regular lube really have that much of an effect on our chances of conception?
GTKY: What is something you can't do, but would like to learn how to? (Like a hobby or skill).
Playing guitar. My mom has played since she was a kid and tried to teach me when I was younger. I can play a few chords, but no full songs or anything. I'd love to be able to play fun kids songs for my kids someday like my mom did for us.

What's PNV? It makes me think of this from Forgetting Sarah Marshall:
I also thought PNV was Penis in Vagina when I first was reading through the WTO threads... took me awhile to figure out it was PreNatal Vitamins. LoL
I'm not gonna lie, that's what I thought, too. I was thinking "Well, duh! That's how baby making sex works!"
Unless you have a Butt Baby!! J/K
@Megz1902 From my understanding, a lot of lubes can have spermicidal properties, so yes, they can hurt your chances of conception. PreSeed is not the only sperm-friendly lube (This article has a list with more) but I think it is the most readily available here in the states, which is why it's the one you see mentioned a lot.

WAYDTGKY: Temps, CM, PNVs(hee hee), sex
Rant/Rave/Chart Stalk: I had a major drop in temp this morning (almost a full degree!) and I don't no why. CM is not fertile, OPKs are negative, didn't drink at all last night. The only thing I can think of is that normally I get woken up a few times throughout the night by my cat, DH, having to pee, etc, and last night I actually slept for 6 hours straight before temping. Would that make it lower? Anyone know? <a href="https://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/59f33a/">My Chart</a>
GTKY: I would like to learn to sew. With a sewing machine. I can sew a button on, or stitch up a hem, (painstakingly) but I would like to be able to make clothes for myself or hopefully for a LO someday.

R/R/CS: RANT - Had one small spot today and thought AF was coming and got so pumped because I took my temp this morning just to be safe in case AF did come, and now hours later and nothing else so annoying! RAVE - Ever since my BC was removed on Monday I have seriously debloated sooo much! I can't wait to see even more positive changes of no longer being on HBC yay!
GTKY: What is something you can't do, but would like to learn how to? (Like a hobby or skill).
Hmmm that's a good question! Probably how to really live off the land as in being able to live in the wilderness for say a week or more. I go camping and things like that but not in the way my husband has done where he literally caught all of his food and hiked to different camp sites with just one backpack. I would love to do that!
WAYDTGKU: Charting, temping, waiting for AF to GTFO
R/R/CS: Rave: My temp went down today, so happy to see that. Rant: I had lunch with my good friend today who is 9 months pregnant. Very happy to catch up with her but couldn't help but be reminded that if I wouldn't have had MMC, I would have a 1 month old right now, we talked a bit about it and she was very sympathetic and sweet but made me a little sad this afternoon although I'm very happy for her and slightly relieved I don't have the impending anxiety of child birth to contend with. Oh well, I'm enjoying my sweet cider now...
GTKY: What would you like to learn how to do? Get pregnant! No seriously. I would like to learn how to scuba dive, though with my epilepsy, it's not too feasible for me. Also, learn how to speak Spanish fluently.
