I just spoke to the nurse regarding my bw and my progesterone levels were really low so I, in fact, have not ovulated. She seemed perplexed which was less than comforting. She told me to continue using the OPKs (but not CBDA - bc that tests estrogen too), keep 'having relations' (check!) and I have to call on Monday with an update and they might bring me in again for more bw and another u/s.
Why can't I just have a normal cycle?! Just one. normal. cycle.
End of whining.

R/R: DH is home yay! Had drinks last night so didn't bother temping...my chart is gonna be FUGLY this month lol So this morning I went for first true TTC sex of the cycle (ie: no oral allowed lol) and I stored my preseed in the bathroom yesterday so I could discreetly use the applicator. Came back to bed all naked and sexy with preseed inserted but I wasn't all that "warmed up" so I couldn't errrr put A into B lol So then I had to go back to the bathroom to grab the tube of preseed and I'm honestly surprised he didn't ask why the lube was in the bathroom lol Anyways, it was fine from there. I'll figure this out eventually
CS/Q: seems like CM is transitioning from creamy to watery but hard to tell. Should I just see what it's like later in the day?
GTKY: If you could meet one person, living or dead, who would it be and why? The one that comes to mind immediately is Ellen. She just seems lovely. Also Jennifer Aniston because huge girl crush. But the sentimental answer would be my bio dad. He died when I was three months old and it would be amazing to have a meal with him and just talk
@laurad75 I just CS your past charts and I see why you are upset... you don't seem to O on a consistent day each cycle. That can be super frustrating and I am sorry! At least you have the lines of communication open and hopefully will get some answers SOON!
WAYDTGKU: EOD, BBT, CM, Clearblue Fertility Monitor (plus prenatal, Omega 3, B100, vitamin C, CoQ-10, green tea). Just started Mucinex.
R/R: Why is it always when you're trying to pinpoint ovulation that your body decides you need to pee two hours earlier than your alarm? FFS.
CS/Q: Ooh, two questions for once!
My Mucinex arrived yesterday, so I took one when I got home (then had sexy time later that night). It's the 12hr version. How often do you guys take it? Should I be taking it twice a day throughout my fertile window or just once before sex?
My husb and I had a big talk yesterday about the pressure of baby-making sex and I mentioned that some guys try "depositing" in a softcup for the lady to insert on nights when it's just not going to happen. Do any of you do that or some other "turkey baster" method?
GTKY: If you could meet one person, living or dead, who would it be and why? I could be all deep and meaningful, but honestly, Keanu Reeves, because he was my first true love.
@rainbowturtles It depends on when you DTD and when you checked. It is supposed to be several hours. I'd say it's also probably more accurate after you have gone to the bathroom because you may have some of his stuff up in there. @laurad75 Hoping you O soon and it's really obvious. @MollyandD I can totally see why you would say that. I think I would feel the same.
It's funny how it's the little things in life that mean the most...not where you live, or what you drive, or the price tag on your clothes... There's no dollar sign on a piece of mind, this I've come to know! *ZBB*
@EEL0824 TCOYF is such an important book if you really want to understand TTC and your fertility in general. I would recommend the book to any woman whether they are TTC or TTA just to really have a handle on how everything works. I think you can make the argument to your husband that reading it isn't just about getting pregnant but about understanding your body. I read it months before we were TTC.

@laurad75 I have read (via many searches and LOTS of lurking) the book is a great one to read! I was thinking about getting it (I have a kindle, so no hard copy lying around) and after I read it talking to him about it.
TBH I didn't expect him to start freaking out the day I got my IUD removed but in his words "it just became real. This might actually happen"
@ladystinson so sorry about the break in I sadly know that feeling all too well...violated, vulnerable thinking of you @LuND oh wow, my paternal grandparents...and actually my bio dad...survived the holocaust, too! My dad was born in Czechoslovakia in 1930; he and his sister were sent to an orphanage in England during the war but my grandfather actually survived being sent to Auschwitz (sp?). I couldn't even imagine! (ps: my dad was 19yrs older than my mom) @NYTino24 I checked cm before HIO I'll check again later this evening @tripledaggerWed95976 as everyone else has said, you may be regular until you're not. But also wanted to add that if you do O late, there's no reason why your LP length would change. LP tends to stay close to the same for "most people" regardless of when they O. So if you O late, you might just end up with a longer cycle this time. I was going to give a math example but I feel ill and I'm sure you get the picture lol
@rainbowturtles I never knew that about LPs! I really hope that if I did O late then that is the case for me. Because the thought of having a 10 day LP scares me!
@Cait32 I swear the link wasn’t in your signature when I first
looked but now it is. Unfortunately, I
don’t have any experience with OPKs but it definitely looks like you could have
O’d yesterday based on temps and CM.
@MollyandD Sorry you had such a tough night last night!
@laurad75 Sorry for the not so great news. You could still O and just have a long cycle.
@deadasthatsquirrel Keanu was my first celebrity crush! I used to have a “book” I put together that was stuff I
found about him in various magazines. I
still think he’s hot! I still watch it
and 12 isn’t all that bad (to me, at least) but yeah, no one will ever be as
awesome in the role as he was.
@EEL0824 I agree with @laurad75 that reading TCOYF is super
helpful! I’m not even done reading it
and I plan on using it as a reference when checking fertile signs this
month.

Thanks everyone for the kind comments. It's frustrating but its not necessarily bad news. I'm thankful that I'm working with a great fertility clinic that is patient with me eager to help us get answers. I refuse to go crazy over this just yet. We will just continue with the humping at least EOD until AF or O. Whatever.

@tripledaggerwed95976 I agree with @rainbowturtles a later than usual O does not equal a shorter LP. Usually your LP is consistent in length give or take a day. So your cycle should just be longer this time
@westy99 O looks like cycle day 20 to me but a few more temps will tell for sure

@BitterBetty12, no positive OPK for me on CD20 (today) either Mine seemed close around days 13-16 and then have gotten lighter. No temp spikes either. @JennyV56 I just went off Birth Control August 3rd. Maybe I'm having a tough time adjusting too. If you don't mind, what kind of pills did you take and for how long? I took Ocella for a little over 13 years and I took it continuously, so I had one period every 10th week.

Month/Cycle: 15/15
CD: 20
WAYDTGKU: All the things
R/R: I still haven't ovulated yet (Still low temps and EWCM) which typically would be okay, I understand that cycles change. However, I already scheduled my HSG for next month and I hope they let me push it back! I'm also hoping my LP stays the same and doesn't get any shorter.
CS/Q:
GTKY: If you could meet one person, living or dead, who would it be and why?
Mother Teresa because of how wonderful she was in everything she did.
@lulu1180 Nope, that temp is clearly not discarded. See the dot?

R/R: I had jury duty today for the first time. I was actually really excited to get called, but unfortunately I just waited in the room for 3 hours and got excused when both cases finally "pled out". I was so disappointed! Since I had taken the day off work I went and did some shopping. I'm ashamed to say I bought MORE fall decor. I'm one of those pumpkin crazed freaks... I can't help it.
CS/Q: None yet
GTKY: If you could meet one person, living or dead, who would it be and why? My Grandma. She passed when I was an infant and I would love to have known her.
Omgggg ladies!!! I'm at DH's work BBQ, went to the bathroom and had EWCM!!! I didn't have any last month for some reason so I'm super excited lol We did BD this morning but this is like 8hrs later and I've gone to the bathroom plenty of times in between and I'm fairly certain it's EWCM But because we BD'd this morning we should probably wait until tomorrow to go again? I'm so worried about "wasting it" and just want to pull him behind the house now lol
Sorry for the probably really silly and annoying post
@deadasthatsquirrel I take 600mg 2x daily during fw, or could do 3x if you got the 400mg ones. I bought the 1200s the first time until I found out it was overkill, and also better to take multiple doses spread across yhe day than just one big one. Taking it before sex, it won't have time to kick in. 12-hr, 2x daily during fw.
@NYTino24 If it's discarded but still within the range of the chart, the circle stays visible, but the line goes dotted and skips past it. FF is reading it as discarded, for some reason.
@rainbowturtles Do it! Do it for us! Do it for CM challenged!

I was just thinking, in my head I was worrying about his sperm count but completely forgetting that sometimes he can't even do EOD I'll do my best when we get home but I might be better off waiting til tomorrow morning to avoid chaffing and/or disappointment lol Thank you for all the encouragement, tho!!!
@mrsegan13. It depends, sometimes I wake up drier and it shows up more as the day goes along. Just record the most fertile type you see that day. ;) even if you only see it once
@deadasthatsquirrel I am such an idiot!! I checked CD2 as 8/2 instead of 8/8. It was discarded.
It's funny how it's the little things in life that mean the most...not where you live, or what you drive, or the price tag on your clothes... There's no dollar sign on a piece of mind, this I've come to know! *ZBB*
@mrsegan13 so here's my birth control story: I was on lomedia for the last 6 months, but prior to that I had been on trivora for almost 15 years. I switched to lomedia for the last 6 months before our wedding so I could skip periods as needed up to the wedding and honeymoon and that worked perfectly. So I got off the pill on June 10th and had 2 periods in 3 weeks, then bounced into a pretty normal cycle the following month. Then, it's like my hormones exploded starting in August. I've literally cried at some point every day this month over something - from sitcoms to work stress. I had all kinds of weird symptoms like dizziness, bloating, sore boobs, etc that I was sure meant I was KU (obviously not though). My doctor said I should stabilize a little after 3 months so I'm hoping to feel like myself again soon. All the emotions are the worst for me..I feel like I nutcase! : )
So I really hope you have a better time with it than I did! Fx

R/R: I had jury duty today for the first time. I was actually really excited to get called, but unfortunately I just waited in the room for 3 hours and got excused when both cases finally "pled out". I was so disappointed! Since I had taken the day off work I went and did some shopping. I'm ashamed to say I bought MORE fall decor. I'm one of those pumpkin crazed freaks... I can't help it.
CS/Q: None yet
GTKY: If you could meet one person, living or dead, who would it be and why? My Grandma. She passed when I was an infant and I would love to have known her.
Sorry for the probably really silly and annoying post
@deadasthatsquirrel I take 600mg 2x daily during fw, or could do 3x if you got the 400mg ones. I bought the 1200s the first time until I found out it was overkill, and also better to take multiple doses spread across yhe day than just one big one. Taking it before sex, it won't have time to kick in. 12-hr, 2x daily during fw.
