@LoveinDC I understand not wanting to get your hopes up, but my fingers are crossed so hard for you.
@BertieMeetsGertie I'm so glad that you had such a great vacation and that O held out.
@Dilynne I'm sorry you're not feeling well and especially on such a difficult day. Thoughts are with you and your family today.
@RVAmom315 Congrats on the weight loss!
@Pinky917 No!!!! I'm so sorry
@lund Good luck in TWW!
@MicahDahn Sorry you didn't have power, but glad you're okay!
@zamora_spin Happy Anniversary!
@JennyColada I know a lot of people have already said this, but I'm going to say it too. You're normal until you're not. Before I was ever on the pill I had perfect 28 day cycle, like so textbook that I was VERY stupid and my high school boyfriend and I used the rhythm method as our birth control method. I was lucky and didn't get KU. Back to my point though. Once I had my Mirena removed I had one 28 day cycle and since then my cycles have ranged from 30 - 34 days. Please know that we're not trying to be offensive and pushy, we just want you to get KU as quickly as you can and the best way to do that is having the most information as possible. 
@JJMNO1616 Were you guys able to get all the painting done?
@emcake Sorry for CD1

@garnetandgoldgrace it's a serum designed to produce progesterone in women. I've had friends who have recommended it, and I figured I'd try it out? No one who recommended it to me is making money off of me trying it. haha But I apply 2 drops on my forearms and 2 drops on my neck. It does not need to be diluted because there is already a carrier oil in the serum.

@Cricket648 it's like MAP. Our kids have to take the reading & math tests for that too. 

@mschanandlerbong1214 so I signed up & got the neopolitan pack. I'll take all the recipes please!! (Although I very sadly gave up caffeine in October for this TTC thing so no coffee for now)

mschanandlerbong1214

Could it be!? EWCM?! HIO for the next couple days just to be safe!

@pebbledam it sounds like you might have a dust mite allergy. I agree it's absolutely horrible this year (never had any issues until my early 30s). If you haven't already, you might want to try a allergy pillow cover (like 6 bucks at the store)-cover the pillow then put the pillow case over it. I take antihistamines and Flonase every day but that personally has made a huge difference

@lund @KariAnn323 We are almost done painting. My H is going to go back to the house and finish up the ceiling of the guest bedroom and to freshen the trim and then we are done. We didn't plan to paint the ceiling but it looks kind of bad now that all the other paint in the room is fresh! I feel like it took us wayy longer then average to paint two bedrooms for some reason. Almost done though!  

Sorry yall but I'm too drained to comment much today. I'll be more chatty tomorrow.

@purplg8r Definitely join the healthy habits thread! It's totally about whatever habit you are trying to work on, so no worries if you love junk food and are focusing on something else

@emcake Sorry for CD1 and the month rollover - that's just not fair

lifeisbetteronthered

Month/Cycle: 1/1

CD: 1

WAYDTGKU: sporadically temp, OPKs (just got my new wondfo's in the mail, my old ones expired over a year ago, monitor CM, have sex.

R/R: work work work, though my work schedule is looking good for TTC this month.

CS/Q: nope

GTKY: What is your most prized material possession? My pictures.  I've got them saved multiple times in multiple places (I even keep a hard drive with copies in the safe at my fathers) because I'm so paranoid about loosing them.

sunniegrly

@garnetandgoldgrace - I'm using the Clearblue touch screen fertility monitor. Although it hasn't asked for tests yet and this is my first cycle using it. So we'll see how it goes. 

@Amphibious22 - I'm super jealous of your collectible LOTR set....

pebbledam

@redpuma119 - As someone who is well-versed in biology, I did not know about floppy uteruses. Thank you.
@sunniegrly - The worst part about coming off BC is that you literally have no idea what your body is going to do. I don't think I've ever heard two stories sound the same.
@emcake - hugs for CD 1 and rough Mondays.
@Sailing_Mama - FX so hard that you already O'd.
@purplg8r - I think I'm going to join in on the weekly heath thread and focus on one thing at a time until I feel like I can add to it. I know I could use the accountability.
@Cricket648 - That picture won't open for me (it's just a little black box with an 'x' in it)
@amberruka - I actually do have a dust mite allergy! I don't know why I didn't think of getting a cover for my pillow. I'm off to Amazon!
@TomW&JennyD - The ampersand will make it impossible to tag you, fyi. And would you mind putting your siggy in a spoiler box? We don't mind talking about kids, but it would be a nice gesture for those that have dealt with losses recently.

ramzlau

These days I may only get to post late at night, but I am here and reading . And we just had an earthquake! What! This was a crazy long thread, so I love titted as much as possible! 

Month/Cycle: 19/19

CD: 15

WAYDTGKU: PNVs, CoQ10, Vitamin D, cabergoline, levothyroxine, follate, OPKs, CM/BBT, TI

R/R: New girl joined my team at work today! I went from being a team of 1 to a team of 3 in the last two weeks. Light at end of tunnel is getting brighter! 

CS/Q: What is the difference between prescription PNV and just over the counter ones? 

GTKY: What is your most prized material possession?

Probably my wedding ring. I am not really attached to much, we have moved enough that it has limited our possessions, but there is a lot of sentimental value to my wedding ring.

@Pinky917 so sorry you are back here but welcome back! hope the testing goes well!

@Sailing_Mama sorry for the benched cycle, fx you O’d this weekend! 

KariAnn323

@ramzlau I think the big thing is that if your PNV is by Rx then your insurance may cover it. Don't quote me on it though, but that would be my thought process.

doula-mama

@ramzlau I believe @KariAnn323 has it right, although for me it's a bit different. Mine are prescribed by my naturopath, so no coverage for them regardless. However, there has been so much controversy over what is actually in vitamins lately, that I feel better taking one that comes from a company the naturopath gets all of her supplements from.

@zamora_spin We have lost power before but usually only a couple of hours. 
@KariAnn323 Thank you!
@RVAmom315 I am using an app to track calories now! WW is what worked for me in the past, I just don't want to spend the money right now!
@purplg8r Super thankful! I have been doing testing too! We finally finished today!
@lund Thank you! 
@supercoolstephy Sooo thankful for insurance! Hope your roof installation goes well!
@LoveInDC Thank you!
@cricket My students finished testing today! I am so glad we are done for the year! 

lifeisbetteronthered

@pebbledam Yes, absolutely. Actually I wanted to put my soggy in a spoiler box yesterday (when I was updating it), but couldn't figure out how. Seems to be a new feature since I was last active on the boards. I read through the intro stuff and the "how to change your siggy" stuff with no luck (none of it's changed). Then I got frustrated, gave up, and went to work. Anyone want to enlighten me (or point me to a "how to" article)? Also, "back in my day" it was pretty tough to change your name. Is it possible now? I made that one before tagging was a thing. Thanks for helping an old-newbie out.

lifeisbetteronthered

@pebbledam Ok, so named changed (seems I have more patience for searching for answers after a nap).  Next I'll tackle the siggy.

pebbledam

@lifeisbetterontheriver - I meant to PM you, but wrote on your "wall" instead. Let me known if you can't find it.
