WAYDTGKU: All the things
R/R: My sniffle cold turned in to a cough cold, and now I'm dangerously close to losing my voice. The clinical instructor said we may not be able to have drinks during computer training, and I plan to fight that. Because really, I'm sure they'd rather I had my closed water bottle to drink from than cough all throughout their training.
CS/Q: For those that are drinking teas -- have you noticed you're going to the bathroom more/producing more urine? I'm literally just replacing my water intake with tea intake, so it's not like I'm taking in extra fluids, but I think I peed a hundred times yesterday. My urine has literally never been so clear. It's insane, and kind of annoying.

Humpy Baby Dancer
I hate "baby dancing" or "baby dance" or "BD", so this is horrible ironic.

R/R: My OPKs were getting a little darker and then yesterday they were super faint and my EWCM went away. Lovely fakeout, body.
CS/Q: not temping currently.
GTKY: Smarty McTempsalot (which is funny because my BBT battery died this cycle)
@izza2 - I hate the "BD" phrasing, too.

WAYDTGKU: PNV, CoQ10, RRL tea, pomegranate juice
R/R: Had dinner with my in-laws last night and they were too busy criticizing my SIL's parenting choices to ask us why I'm not pregnant yet. Thankful for small mercies! (SIL was not present, otherwise I might have nobly attempted to draw some of their fire.)
CS/Q: Nope, just finished AF and am enjoying the short window before I have to start the OPKs.
GTKY: Smarty Snowflake...Hmmm.
@pebbledam Sorry for the fake out. Hopefully it doesn't last too long and your body gets in gear soon.

WAYDTGKU: So many things. Might add ubiquinol next cycle
R/R: Rant: My doctor found a lump in my breast at my last visit and said to keep an eye on it since it might be a cyst based on where we thought I was in my cycle. Still there. Going in for a breast ultrasound next week. I've never wished/hoped for cysts so much in my life but heres to hoping it's just cysts! Rave: H attempted to make the coffee this morning. He botched it but at least he tried.
CS/Q:
GTKY: Tempy Mucinex Popper...ew
@izza2 Yup, I'd be bringing in lemon water whether it was allowed or not.
@pebbledam Ugh sorry for your fake out! Those are so annoying.
@blackhottamales Oh fun! Where are you going?
@lurvleybunchococonuts Loving your joy over AF! Yay for a fresh start!
@Augusta108 Man that does not sound like a pleasant evening. How do y'all handle that? I'd be so uncomfortable.
@izza2 I hope they let you have water. Tell them it violates your 8th amendment protection from cruel and unusual punishment.
@SkilledSailor I hope it's just a cyst!
And FTR I am Teeny McHumperson
@offtoneverland, yes, I work at a public library. It is a great job overall!
@SkilledSailor, FX for a cyst in this instance! The time with my in-laws is always stressful for me, it's a very different family culture than mine. Even their jokes are all making fun of each other in not very kind ways. At least this time the person they were criticizing wasn't present, so it wasn't as bad as some of the conversations I've been present for!
@pebbledam Sorry for the fake out. That sucks.
@blackhottamales Where are you headed? I'm always a last minute packer too.
@lurvleybunchococonuts I'm glad you can finally get started on a new cycle!
@Augusta108 Glad you survived dinner with the ILs!
@offtoneverland I think you have the best ttc name so far.
@SkilledSailor Fx that it's a cyst!
@lalala2004 Good luck in the TWW!

WAYDTGKU: bbt, cm, opks, pnvs, green tea, acupuncture
R/R: Rant - no big temp rise today, so I guess I didn't O yesterday! *tw* And I held a co-workers baby and everything, which is totally good luck! *end tw* I'm also somewhat sleep deprived, because I had to wait for MH to finish work so we could HIO. And then I had a dream that I was presenting some research and had forgotten to analyze my data. Sigh. Rave - I'm going to order some new clothes online today, so I'm excited for that. I rarely wear dresses, but they're such an easy option for work, so I'm trying to get some I'll actually want to wear.
CS/Q: Would you all agree that I haven't O'd yet? Or do you think the small temp rise today means O was yesterday? Chart in spoiler.

Smarty Triphas-tastical.....?
@pebbledam Fakeouts are frustrating!
@blackhottamales Where are you going? Anywhere exciting? Also, I haven't figured out how to insert my chart either.
@lurvleybunchococonuts I am sorry about CD1, but I am sure you are just glad to move on from that long cycle. ((Hugs))
@Augusta108 Glad you avoided that conversation with the ILs.
@offtoneverland Good luck filling in today! What is your scope of work? Have you filled in this position before?
@SkilledSailor Sorry about the lump! Keep us posted how the follow up visit goes.
@lalala2004 GL in TWW!
Good morning!

@blackhottamales Exciting! You better pack! We are planning a tropical get away next year! FX on that though.
@lurvleybunchococonuts Sorry about CD1, but it sounds like you were waiting forever!
@Augusta108 That does not sound like fun.
@SkilledSailor Cycle buddy!! How did I not see this before!?
DD: 07/19/18
EDD: 06/22/22
@dukestar5 thanks, I'm not happy it's CD1, but I am happy to no longer be in limbo
@doxiemoxie212 hope the bleeding stops soon
@darkstar42 I hope your temps continue to rise, ooo new dresses are fun!
@SkilledSailor FX it's a cyst! Keep us posted *hugs*

WAYDTGKU: temping and coq10 for now
R/R: it's Wednesday! This wk feels slow.
CS/Q: am I the only one that has issues finding new batteries for their thermometer? Lol. I have like 3 thermometers cause I've found it easier to just buy new. Another wasted battery this wkend cause per a quick internet search while in the store, this was the right size... just to not fit when I got home. Guess I'll wait out this cycle, hope it lasts and buy a whole new one

@lurvleybunchococonuts YAY!!! thank goodness and really interesting about your ovaries. fx for a uneventful (successful) cycle!
@Augusta108 I like your GTKY name, way better than my gross one. Glad that your In-law are not being too bad about TTGP pressure.
@offtoneverland have a great day and i love you TTC name!
@SkilledSailor fx for a cyst. please keep us updated.
@darkstar42 i used to not be a last minute packer, but i'm owning it now. yes, that's definitely good luck!
@doxiemoxie212 enjoy your night out with a friend! going anywhere fun?
@dukestar5 how long is YH gone?
@ajsanders-2 tropical get away! that sounds amazing.
@catlady1215 this week is SO slow!
@izza2 I'm going to agree that a drink is better than coughing. no much worse than sitting and coughing in a quiet room at work. hope you feel better!
@pebbledam fx for a positive soon!
@blackhottamales I'm a late packer also lol
@lurvleybunchococonuts yaaaaay for officially having cd1. actually I really hate saying that, but I'm only 'yay-ing' cause you've been waiting.
@augusta108 glad the ILs focused on someone else!
@skilledsailor ugh, so many fingers and toes crossed for a cyst. keeping you in my thoughts.
@darkstar42 keep watching your temps. I sometimes have a slow rise after O. fingers crossed!
@doxiemoxie212 have fun at dinner!
@dukestar5 perfect GTKY name haha!

@izza2 Sorry you are sick! I drink so much water normally that I pee all the time and have not noticed increased peeing with the tea - but maybe because green tea has a little caffeine that is causing it?
@pebbledam So sorry for the fake out, friend.
@blackhottamales The way I insert a chart on mobile is I just take a pic of my chart and then click on the little picture above the text box that looks like a sun and mountains, and then hit choose files and I select the pic from my camera photos.
@darkstar42 I think it is possible you O'd yesterday but you won't know for sure for another two days of thigh temps. Do you usually have a slower rise pattern?
@doxiemoxie212 Have a great dinner with your friend. It's so great to have good friend time.
@lurvleybunchococonuts Sorry for CD1 but sounds like you have a good outlook on it. My ovaries do act differently - one of them causes pain and is less consistent on O dates. I agree it is interesting when you start paying attention to these things.
@ajsanders-2 I see from your siggy you have a wedding anniversary coming up, are you planning something fun?
@Augusta108 I'm glad you didn't have to suffer through an interrogation! I hate it when people ask that question.
@dukestar5 You are so productive in the mornings!
@SkilledSailor I'm sorry about the lump, I hope it is just a cyst. I think that is overwhelmingly likely.
Month/Cycle: 5/5 (3/3 and 1/1 AL)
CD: 11
WAYDTGKU: All the usual acronyms plus acupuncture
R/R: I am not having a lot of CM this cycle. I am generally so well hydrated that I pee every hour so I'm not sure what is going on, but had EWCM yesterday (just a little) now it's gone and I'm pretty much drying up. It could mean I'm about to O but it could also be a false surge (have OPKs getting darker). Also forgot to bring an OPK to work today so now I can't check until I get home. Womp womp. Rave: Getting my hair cut and colored tonight. Thank heavens, the grays are getting aggressive up there.
CS/Q: Nope. Chart still ugly. I swear my temp times are not as terrible as this makes them look.
GTKY: Creamy Stick Pee-er. Sounds about right.
@dukestar5 I haven't read Lilac Girls yet, but I heard it was great and plan on reading it soon. Maybe @Augusta108 can tell us if it's worth the time! I used to run and I really miss being able to eat tons of food without gaining weight!

@zamora_spin Lol, your GTKY name made me gag a little bit. I dunno, creamy stick pee-er is just a little too much. Getting your hair done is always nice

@zamora_spin No, we will probably be moving, so it will be a fun night of packing, haha. Maybe we will go to dinner!
@blackhottamales Yes! I am so excited! I am looking at all kinds of places to go right now. We really want to do an all inclusive! This will be like our real honeymoon, since when we got married we couldn't afford to go somewhere super cool.
@lurvleybunchococonuts Oh I see, well that limbo stage didn't sound like so much fun.
DD: 07/19/18
EDD: 06/22/22
@izza2I drank tea yesterday morning instead of my usual decaf coffee and my pee was so clear when I took my OPK that I'm pretty sure it was a false negative.
@blackhottamales Have fun on your trip!
@lurvleybunchococonuts Yay for finally getting CD1!
@Augusta108 Luckily your SIL wasn't there, I hope your ILs don't pester you too much the next time you see them.
@offtoneverland Good luck today!
@SkilledSailorI really hope it's just a cyst too, FX it's nothing.
@catlady1215When I used to temp, I would just buy new thermometers rather than going through the hastle of buying a new battery.
@darkstar42I think you O'd yesterday.
@zamora_spin I hope you have a great hair appointment!

WAYDTGKU: Took my last dose of clomid this morning
R/R: Rant: still on my damn period feels like it will never end. Rave: I have the house to myself for a few hours and can just chillax.
CS/Q: Stupid question but you won't ovulate while still on your period right? Clomid won't make me ovulate before af is gone? Worried that I already have long periods and provera inducing it this month may make it even longer than normal and I will miss my O day.
