R/R/CS: No rants or raves, just bonus points to anyone who knows what song this meme is referring to. :-) My husband and I periodically play it right after having sex, lol. Like, still naked, watching Lonely Island.
Holy crap! DH and I do the same thing! I'm still in awe that they could get Akon to sing the hook! "I Just Had Sex" is one of our favorites. Lol!

@QueenDaenerysT - Um...that's just not true. There are things that a doctor can do to help women who have luteal phase issues. Like progesterone cream. It seems way odd to me that the nurse would say there is nothing they could do and then jump from taking prenatal vitamins to doing ivf, as if there were no steps in between. Can you call back and ask to have the doctor call back instead this time? It seems like the nurse may have been blowing you off...sometimes doctors don't believe that we lay people can possibly know when we ovulate, lol.
As for natural remedies, I have heard of using Vitamin C, eating tons of leafy greens for the Vitamin B6, and making sure to eat a lot of "good" cholesterol (hdl?) from things like coconut oil. I have no idea as the the efficacy of these things.
If I might make a suggestion to the ladies who'd like to start crocheting, has anyone considered making wash cloths? A very simple square, one stitch, and it will go quickly!
To start all you need to know is: Starting chain One stitch (I recommend half double crochet over single crochet. It is easier IMHO) How to turn to start new rows How to finish off
These are all things you should be able to find easy picture tutorials for online.
Then you can build up to harder, more interesting stuff.
Yes to all of this! I pretty much learned from youtube videos of the different stitches I needed at the time. Definitely don't try to learn all at once. I actually just google names of more complicated stitches as I need them for patterns.

@thefarmerswife0411 I am the same way about plans! DH always says he is teaching me to “chill” but I’m not sure I’m such a good student!
@BerkeBaby That sounds like a really nice trip! And I’m really sorry about your car. That really sucks, but I’m glad they found it!

WAYDTGKTFU: benched at the moment because of the lap, but still temping and PNVs. I'll be unbenched on the 29th, then HIO for whatever time we have left before O. I'll probably start OPKs before then, just to gauge where I am.
R/R/CS: Oh Monday! I was ridiculously busy at work today. Every time I think it's about to slow down a little, something else gets thrown on my desk!
GTKY: I would love to learn to play piano. We have an antique upright piano that I bought DH for his birthday last year. He can play anything you hand him, and he sings, and I am just so jealous of his musical talent.

@thefarmerswife0411 - Good luck in your new office! Also, have you heard of the song "Sallie Mae Back"? It's a song about paying off your student loans. It cracked me up, but I'm sad because I'm pretty sure that will never happen. DH's parents paid for him to go to college...I had to take out student loans. Ugh...
Thank you! My 1st day went great but I'm freaking exhausted! I've been seriously considering bed since 7.30 lmao! I haven't heard of that song but will be googling it shortly lol. I'm totally SallieMae's bitch lol! Heard dat @ payback it's killing me! DH doesn't have any either >.< we're looking into the debt snowball method this year to help us start getting more serious about paying down/off my little loans leaving more money towards the big ones. We want to get as much of that done as possible before we get GTFU

That's what DH and I are doing, the debt snowball. We've used it to pay off several credit cards and are about to make a massive final payment on one, and then we'll just have one credit card left. One step closer to being debt-free!

@QueenDaenerysT and @zrain , I am not sure if you are supposed to stop drinking raspberry leaf after O. I drank it throughout my LP this past time because I didn't know...but I also obv didn't conceive. This time I'm going to stick to drinking it just until O and see what happens...it is great for menstrual relief though!
