Re: WTO Thursday 1/17
CD: 2
WAYDTGKU: PNVs, OPKs, FF, BBT, SMEP
R/R: I dont feel like working today. My confession for today is that I've had dirty dishes in my sink for 2 days, between work, school and a pounding headache I couldn't shake yesterday I just haven't had time or felt like dealing with them. We rinse our dishes before they go in the sink so it's not super gross but still gross lol. My goal for tonight is to deal with the dishes. Also I'm in a TTC funk, not sure why just kind of annoyed with the process currently. Blah.
CS/Q: nah bro
@kimmer1412 Sometimes you have to let those dishes be dirty. Hopefully your day goes by quickly!
Month/Cycle: 6/6
CD: 2
WAYDTGKU: Metformin (for PCOS), Armour Thyroid (for Hashimoto's), PNVs, Vitamin C & D, Kelp, Calcium, OPKs, Temping, FighterDiet
R/R: Down another pound this morning and AF is in full force so I feel that's a victory lol. Work has been absolutely crazy busy and I've been working in the office all day and then working from home at night. Can't wait for the weekend to finally be here!
CS/Q: Nope!
Diagnosed with PCOS & Hashimoto's
CD: 2
WAYDTGKU: pre-natals, opks when the time comes, tracking cm
R/R: I'm so tired, I slept so badly last night, probably mostly related to the wine I drank. I need to go get tea and then drink a ton of water to rebound. Nothing much else going on, just got a lot of work to do today and tomorrow. Potentially getting a storm this weekend so really not looking forward to that.
CS/Q: nope
@kimmer1412 I have dishes in my sink almost daily, lol. I'm sorry you're feeling blah.
@brookert615 I'm sorry you're so swamped with work right now. Great job on the weight loss even while AF is here!
edit to fix tag
@creamcheeseplease I have sleep issues when I drink too which sucks because when I was young I could get wasted and pass out lol. Hopefully extra water will help. Blah to a weekend storm.
On the bright side I have every intention of treating myself to Thai for lunch. Yummy
@brookert615 sorry this week is so busy for you! Hope you get to relax a little this weekend! Great job on the weight loss! I love losing weight over my period lol. It feels like such an accomplishment lol.
@creamcheeseplease +1 to bad sleep last night too. I didn’t drink though so I don’t know what my issue was lol.
Month/Cycle: 26/hopefully last week benched
CD: 4
WAYDTGKU: all the testing, bbt, metformin, keto
R/R: This week has been so busy, I just want to sleep! It’s flying by though. I got my saline sono scheduled for Tuesday and it is coming up fast!
CS/Q: nothing to see here
edit for a messed up tag
@kimmer1412 sorry you’re feeling so frustrated...hopefully cycle 3 will be successful for you.
@brookert615 boo I’m sorry for CD 2 but am selfishly glad you’re here with me! Hopefully we follow each other right along to a BMB. Awesome job on the weight loss! Hope you have a very relaxing weekend after a stressful week.
Month/Cycle: 15/16

WAYDTGKU: opks, CM, EPO, SMEP
R/R: I’m waiting for an ultrasound right now and am so freaking uncomfortable. If they don’t register and take me back soon, I’m going to pee on this chair! Nothing better than starting your day getting poked with the dildo cam 🤣 rave- I took the whole day off work today so I can 1. Get this ultrasound and then my lashes done later and 2. Not be scrambling around trying to get ready to leave for California this afternoon!
CS/Q: nope. Just pumped AF came a day later than expected so that the night I get home is CD 8 and we can get to SMEPin! Also, @daffodil_shoe I remember you asking about AF after clomid. Mine was basically just 2 days and 1 super light day
@kbrown2385 I feel like this week has flown by too. And thank God it has 😂
@b_1029 the RNs dim the light in the room at my US's and I can't not comment that we're setting the mood 😆
Month/Cycle: 19/18
CD: 6
WAYDTGKU: letrozole, IUI #2 and stuff
R/R: slept on opposite sides of the bed last night because DH has been sleeping with my big U pillow the last couple nights and I wanted to steal it. I was in bed before him like usual. A few times I've had a small sliver of the bed because the darn thing is so big. I was also a bit mad that he'd rather work on stuff that stresses him out over having some stress relieving fun. I woke up a total grump. The saying "woke up on the wrong side of the bed" could not be more true this morning. I had a number of things irritating me since last night so that didn't help.
ETA: I forgot to add that even though I've been a sad grump this morning, DH made me avocado toast. Which I've never actually tried before!
CS/Q: due to above, I did not have my thermometer nearby to get another temp. Meh.

@b_1029 Not going to lie I have the same selfish feeling LOL. October BMB is going to be hoppin'

R/R: as I was filling out the forms for the RE clinic, I had to circle yes for asthma and of course I got curious and Googled. Turns out that recent studies show that women with asthma controlled with short-acting relievers like Ventolin (my case), take 20% longer to conceive and for 30% of them it will take over a year. But, if you take the long-acting relievers like Symbicort, there is no difference vs. women with no asthma. Great. Another thing working against us.
CS/Q: boring chart. My temp was stuck at 98.1 for 3 days, it finally moved today.

@creamcheeseplease this sounds like a good plan!
@kbrown2385 good luck with your saline sono.
@b_1029 hopefully you didn't pee yourself!
@inthewoods23 I hope your mood gets better! How did you like the avocado toast?

@inthewoods23 Yum to avocado toast! That is too delicious. And I'm sorry about waking up on the wrong side of the bed. Hope the rest of your day gets better.

@kimmer1412 and @brookert615, sorry for CD 2. @brookert615, I was so hoping your absence meant something else, so while I am glad you are back to TTGP as a whole, I am sorry you are back in WTO ❤
@creamcheeseplease, I think a lot of us are getting hit with the same storm this weekend. Hope it isn't too bad for you!
@kbrown2385, hope you get better sleep tonight!
@b_1029, hope you got to relieve yourself after posting!! 😂
@inthewoods23, sorry for getting up on the wrong side of the bed. Hope your day gets better from here! ❤ also, what is crumbled on top of the avocado toast? Looks delish!
@klmcguire, NOOOOO I'm so sorry for AF joining you on your cruise. She's the worst!
@rikiteacup, GAH I'm sorry about those study findings. Hugs.
@stephanie123456, yay for three day weekend and ideal FW timing. Looking forward to you rejoining me in TWW, I have missed you, friend!

@klmcguire ugh that’s so annoying about AF on vacation. AND on a cruise! Rude!
@rikiteacup I would’ve never thought that about asthma meds! I’m sorry
@stephanie123456 I think I got the term “dildo cam” from @lillywonderland and @marebear15 (miss you guys) and I’ll never go back! That is quite a spike with no other fertile signs, were you tossing and turning a lot or something?
@sorarose it’s so hard to remember sometimes! Better luck tomorrow!
@lcking82 sorry you’re still in limbo! Hope something happens soon.
1. For all that were concerned, I made it to my appt without peeing on anyone or anything 🤣 it was close though and the tech made a comment during the internal u/s that my bladder must’ve been really full because it was already filling back up. Finally, my baby bladder has been validated.
2. This is one of the only times I’ve flown since starting TTC and starting all the additional stuff after like 6 months...all I could think while packing was GOOD GRIEF I’ve never had so much sh*t to remember to bring! My OPKs, EPO, hormone supplement, decaf green tea, fish oil, RLT, and PNVs are ready for California!
@stephanie123456 FW on the weekend is the best! Love the GIF!
@sorarose Hope you can get into a rhythm of using your BBT!
@lcking82 Hope that follie does her thing!
@galentine I always feel like I end up getting super busy when I would be testing LOL. If only!
@b_1029 Glad you didn't pee on anyone LOL! Safe travels, girl!
Diagnosed with PCOS & Hashimoto's
This has happened the last two months (since we first started ttc) where I’m honestly questioning going to the ER because my pain is so intense.
im literally in the fetal position on the couch with a heating pad on me trying to distract myself here. SO just brought me some meds and water and I’m praying to every God, spirit, and Mother Nature for some relief.
Ill be polite and tag people in a bit when I don’t feel like I’m on deaths doorstep.
EDIT: Ok, I'm 25% of a real human today so I can respond to others.
@rikiteacup Interesting! I take Advair every day but it seems like that's ok? I'm going to ask my OBGYN about that.
@b_1029 Always a plus when you're not giving the doctors a golden shower. I once had an emergency gyn issue and my doctor insisted on doing a transvag ultrasound (or "dildo cam") while I was bleeding. It was not pleasant and I'll never forget how terrible I felt for him.
