Re: WTO Saturday
Month/Cycle: 6/5
CD: 2
WAYDTGKU: PNV, CM, BBT. Waiting to do hsg/us/lab work to decided next step. Saw the "prescribed clomid thread" and I am SO going to make sure I get a referral to an RE. My OB definitely said something about Clomid when she diagnosed me with PCOS and although the office she works in specializes in pregnancy, I'm now feeling like with everything that could go wrong I'd rather be in the hands of a specialist.
R/R/CS: So member how yesterday I was all OMG I got AF, I'd like to thank the academy....Today I woke up with killer cramps. Now I remember why AF is annoying! Aside from the fact that it means I'm not KU lol. I have my friend's services this afternoon so that'll be hard. But I have fun plans lined up for afterwards so that will help distract me.
GTKY: We always do brunch for Easter. Delicious breakfast foods (insert Homer Simpson mouth watering gif that I can't upload because I'm mobile bumping). Plus we'll do an egg hunt for my two nephews who are 6 and 3.
Month/Cycle: 2/3
CD: 11
WAYDTGKU: BBT / OPK / CM (or lack thereof), B6-Vitex-Omega3-DHA, the sex
R/R/CS: Got crosshairs on FF today, although I'm pretty sure it's totally inaccurate and messed up. I vaguely remember waking up this morning and temping but I fell asleep and didn't record it. I have some random memory of thinking "oh..its down again...I guess no O"....but I woke up again 2 hours after my regular time and it was way up....so I imputed it and it gave me an O day and crosshairs. OPK's negative still...haven't turned a positive one yet....no CM in sight. Yesterday I was SO EMOTIONAL for some reason. I just felt this weight on my chest and wanted to cry about everything. I went to yoga and came home and just started bawling for now reason. Of course I stupidly posted that on facebook and everyone was like "omg you're pregnant".......yeah...not really possible to know that yet considering I dont even know if I O'ed. Then my coworker commented "awww you'd make a great mom"....of course that sent me into a crying spiral of doom for the rest of the evening.
GTKY: If you celebrate, what are your plans for Easter? Not sure...I know I work nights on Easter Sunday. My family isn't really close and we never really get together, everyone always waits for the others to plan something...and then no one does. DH's family lives 9 hours away.

WAYDTGKU: Temping etc.
R/R/CS: So this cycle may win the shortest AF of my life. Not complaining!!
On another note Temping this cycle should be more accurate as I purchased a good BBT on Amazon last week and it is already working better than the target cheapy I purchased mid way through last cycle (after my dog chewed up the 2 regular thermometers we had in the house).
I also purchased some cheapy wondfo hpts for this cycle too. I am looking forward to the bsc.
GTKY: If you celebrate, what are your plans for Easter? Plans are to go to the MILs my sister actually is going to go too and hopefully have an easter egg hunt for her littles

WAYDTGKU: usual
R/R/CS: my temps are so weird during AF and the fact that I had like 5 beers last night probably didn't help this mornings temp ha. I probably will just skip temping during AF next month.
GTKY: I'm going to my aunts house for Easter dinner. She and my mom take turns hosting. They don't live too far from us. My cousin and his fiancée will be there so it should be pretty fun.
@vintageandrea90 sorry about the weird early CH. if you put in low temps the next couple days I bet it will take them away.
@mrsdaddario I hope your friends service goes well. Hugs.
Month/Cycle: 7/7
CD: 16
WAYDTGKU: well I meant to seduce H this morning but then he got up all early!
R/R/CS: temp was artificially high this morning due to drinking at dinner last night. Although I suppose I'm close enough to O that it could have been... Only time will tell!
GTKY: If you celebrate, what are your plans for Easter? I'm definitely a "chreatser" church goer so I'll do church with my rents and then we'll have a big Easter dinner later on. Up until last year my mom still hid eggs for me and my (adult) siblings.

WAYDTGKU: Just temping right now
R/R/CS: Nothing really today
GTKY: If you celebrate, what are your plans for Easter?
Church in the morning and then Easter dinner at my parents' house. None of my sisters have kids yet, so we won't have an Easter egg hunt or anything.
CD: 10
WAYDTGKU: Nothing unusual.
R/R/CS: I got a great night's sleep last night for the first time in weeks, so I feel like a friggin' champ this morning. Also, I hopped on the scale this morning and realized that I've lost another 2 pounds this week, for a total of 8 since I got sick. I have never, ever, in my entire life, been a person who accidentally loses weight. I'll take it.
GTKY: If you celebrate, what are your plans for Easter? We will be in Italy for Easter (DID YOU KNOW THAT WE'RE GOING TO ITALY I DON'T KNOW IF I MENTIONED IT) so we are going Easter mass at the Duomo in Siena. I'm not even Catholic! But, when in Siena... We were going to hang around in Florence on Sunday morning for the big Easter mass and the Explosion of the Cart, but we figured that would mean we'd be stuck in Florence all day on Sunday, and we'll already have been there for three days, so we want to get the show on the road. So we're going to grab our rental car from the airport first thing in the morning and get down to Siena in time for mass at 11. Then we're getting a late lunch at Taverna San Giuseppe and wandering around Siena for the day before heading to our agriturismo outside of Asciano for a home-cooked supper and alllllll the wine.
Then on Easter Monday, which is also a holiday in Italy, we are going wine tasting in Chianti.

WAYDTGKU: Temping
R/R/CS: I had my shortest AF this month. That was nice. I also called an acupuncturist to set up a consultation. Waiting to hear back. And I finally broke down and ordered wondfos from Amazon yesterday.
GTKY: We are going to my parents for the weekend. We will go to church then have a big dinner and open Easter baskets.

WAYDTGKU: FW is almost upon us... Ran out of my Calcium chews so I am tempted to take Tums with calcium instead? lol
<b>R/R/CS: So two days' ago CM was definitely EW. Yesterday's was crazy stretchy... but dry/sticky/gobby, not proper EWCM. </b><span class="vanilla-mention-@">@MissAmeliaPond </span>I thought of a comment I believe you had made about gobbiness, but I think it was referring maybe to your H's stuff? but same idea I was like whoa! <b>So I know normally creamy/sticky is not fertile, but it was not that kind of "sticky," and EWCM is crazy stretchy, which this was, but not wet and slippery like proper EWCM. I called it E in FF due to the stretchiness, but with an extra not that it was dry and gobby, and today is like normal (non EWCM) again. I don't know what you ladies would normally put if you had something weird like that with CM. FF doesn't give you that many choices... </b>This is my first cycle back not taking the Fertilitea that I was for the past two cycles, just the red raspberry leaf, so I'm curious what may happen with my CM, or the Mucinex, which I have just two more tablets and I wasn't sure if maybe I'd grab some more or Robitussin or something.
<span>GTKY: I'll be singing at Church for Holy Week, haven't decided yet if I will make the Easter Vigil or AM Masses or both... DH's sister is hosting Easter later that day, but they are not religious at all, so it's really just a nice family gathering.</span>

GTKY: If you celebrate, what are your plans for Easter?
I'm not a huge Easter celebrating person. DH is going on a cruise, I'll be alone. My dad doesn't live far from me but he's going up to Philly to celebrate with extended family. I have school the next day so I can't go four hours away for dinner. I'll probably hit up my friends and see what some of them are doing.

GTKY: If you celebrate, what are your plans for Easter? We will probably have brunch with my parents and then both of our families come together for Easter Dinner. I love that our families have become so close.

WAYDTGKU: I plan on jumping on DH when he gets home from work, every day for the next 3 days. I usually O between CD14-17, we will see how that goes...His Auntie told us that she ate a lot of cheerios while TTC and they feel that led to her having 2 boys, so DH brought home cheerios yesterday hahaha. I may or may not have had a bowl this morning.
R/R/CS: I am super excited to be going to get my hair cut this morning. I have been stalking pinterest non-stop for ideas. The last time I cut my hair short one of my friends said "why did you cut your hair short, isn't that something mom's do? Maybe I should cut my hair short, you don't even have kids yet." Yes, thanks for the heads up lady!!! If I had a baby for every time someone made a dumb comment to me while TTC, I would be the mom on 19 kids and counting. I must have a certain look to me lol
Hope everything has a fantastic Saturday!
GTKY: I am going to celebrate by eating all the mini eggs, I may have started celebrating early...and then dinner with the family.

WAYDTGKU: keeping healthy incl trying to reduce stress (big prob for me), tracking cycles etc. I haven't started temping yet and don't think I will until after the 6 mos point. I think it will stress me out more.
R/R/CS: should be in my FW now and had good morning sex today. Kinda getting annoyed at DH because he won't stop his regular sauna which is proven to reduce sperm count
GTKY: If you celebrate, what are your plans for Easter? We generally just get together with family and eat great food. We had to celebrate with DHs family last weekend because my SIL was able to visit from Toronto. We're heading to my family celebration on Good Friday. Neither of our families are religious....the 4 day weekend is just a good excuse to spend QT together.

@khbear; agree on bugs! Also, I had a similar convo with DH lately, so far as "getting obsessive" so I've just tried to talk a tad less about it. I'm not going to stop temping now, I want evidence when I go to the doctor next month so I can hopefully get on some sort of infertility fast track (HA!) Anywho- we're all with you

Rant: (possible) ovulation makes my blood sugars crappy!!!!! I've gone high for no one reason suddenly!
CS: The temperature was still above "cover line" but .3 degrees lower. Idk what I should think. Need one more day to see, I guess. OPKs were partially there past few days except the really dark peak day, but yesterday they are officially stark white negative. Care to look and say happy things to me??
GTKY: If you celebrate, what are your plans for Easter? I actually have this Easter off, so we'll go to church! Idk what else.

R/R/CS: I'm definitely bummed about CD1. I honestly didn't expect to be doing this another round. I don't know why, but somewhere I had convinced myself that last cycle was going to be the one. No logic, of course. Anyway, here we are again, so I guess I'll just have to make the best of this opportunity.

@thefarmerswife0411 - thanks girl! Yeah, DH was upset when I got upset this month. He asked if this is how it will be every month now, and he didn't want to see me like this every month and suggested I try to not think about it for a while. I think it helped me to take a mini break, but I definitely still charted and temped (obv, since I had a C/S question). I just threw in my info once a day and left it at that. It's been nice to focus on something else for a couple of weeks but I've missed the comradary! BTW I've wanted to ask you like every time I see your username, do y'all actually live on a farm? Have I already asked you that?

@mrsdaddario Sorry about the cramps. The longer I go the more scared I am of AF. Worried it will be horrendous when it actually happens!
@vintageandrea90 Before TTC I never realized upsetting the pregnancy/mom comments could be. Now I totally get it!
@LoulieFace Note to self: Keep BBT out of dogs reach. They get into everything lol!
@lcsrva I know I've said it before, but enjoy Italy! Your Easter plans sound amazing!

WAYDTGKU: PNVs, Waiting, then temping, OPK's, sex etc
R/R/CS: Made the executive decision to come over here as I am waiting to reset and then O. Definitely not in the TWW any longer! I was contemplating starting to temp now, just to get in the habit and was also thinking of doing that update thing on FF. Is is worth it? Then I looked at my chart and added in a few things, like my billion negative HPT's and the last few times we HIO and it is honestly comical. It stretches so far off the page, ugh. Not going to look again until I can start a new chart.
GTKY: If you celebrate, what are your plans for Easter? This is the first time in many years that we won't be with family for Easter. With limited vacation time, the long weekend is too hard to pass up so DH and I are going on a sort of vacation. I say sort of because we will be bringing our dogs, and I've entered a dog show, and we have to drive 9 hours each way...but I still think it counts because we will have 5 days off work, and will be out of the country. So close enough!

waydtgku: just temping
r/r/CS: I'm trying to get DH to start taking a daily multivitamin. He doesn't have a sperm problem but maybe this will help. Idk. We're also gonna try to have sex EOD or every 3 days the whole month. Then EOD or ED during FW. So we'll see how that goes.
We went to the RE last month and as of now they couldn't find anything wrong. Which is a double edged sword because it's great that nothing's wrong but at the same time, why aren't we pregnant after over 2 years if nothing is wrong? We're gonna start clomid next month but we can't this month because we're gonna be on vacation right before and during FW and I wouldn't be able to have ultrasounds.
On a bright note we took our dog to the park to let him run today and it only took 5 minutes for him to be exhausted and ready to go. Haha. He just ran and ran and ran and then he laid down panting and smiling and made me carry him to the car.
GTKY: I haven't decided if we are going to see my family for Easter. My cousin is pregnant and as happy as I am for her I just don't know if I can face it right now. I've been texting everyone about it but face to face is different. And I feel so selfish.

WAYDTGKU: The expected stuff.
R/R/CS: DH had his first issues with performance anxiety. I was feeling pretty frustrated because after yesterday's positive OPK and today's temp drop, I'm pretty sure today is O day. Also, he originally wanted me to tell him when it was my FW, but I felt so bad yesterday when it didn't happen because I felt like telling him put too much pressure on him. So we talked about it and I guess we probably need to talk more about how to help that. We did get to HIO finally today (and also day before yesterday) so that's still good timing, I just don't want to give him performance issues. I feel bad.
GTKY: If you celebrate, what are your plans for Easter? I think we are just meeting up at my parents' place with my half sister and her husband. Nothing too big.

then 3 failed IUIs, and finally a successful IVF FET.
Due with #2 5/2/19 after HIO once in my FW,
because apparently that's how life works now. Team Blue!
@sugargirl1019 It looks like if you get one more high temp, then FF will give you CH for CD 12. FX for a high temp tomorrow!
@songbirdinthecity We're almost TTC twins! I'm also month/cycle 7/8, but on CD 2. FX this is the last time in WTO for both of us!
@nursemarie9 It doesn't look like you O'd yet, unfortunately. Typically temps go up as the morning goes on, which explains why your later temp was higher. But the first one was closer to your normal time, so that one is more reliable. Hopefully you O soon, though!
@aammyy33 You could always start temping now just to get in the habit, even if you don't input it into FF (the data wouldn't tell you anything anyway)

Questions - H had performance anxiety last night for the first time. I'm kind of at a loss of how to handle it. He was embarrassed, understandably and shut conversation down right after. Do I try to discuss it? Let it die? I know there's a few people here who deal with this semi regularly.
Second question- I had a temp spike this AM, but still have lots of fertile CM. Is it normal to have fertile CM after a clear temp shift? Should I keep HIO?
Thanks for your help! My app has been a shit show today, so going back to see the GTKY will probably erase all of this... I think Easter Q? I will be traveling to Vegas for work W,Th, F next week and get in early morning Saturday. We'll just hang here and do an Easter egg hunt for DS.
