@bows22 it's so hard to really get involved in the chatter when you're using the app! It's so difficult with scrolling up and down to read what people posted and then make comments to everyone!
*TW* History:
Me: 34 DH: 36 | Together since 2007 | Married July 2016

I'm with you, but I don't know your name" RPL, Receptiva, & ERA testing | all normal/negative, recommended going on gluten and dairy free diet for next FET FET #2 | 3.31.20 | Opted to cancelled due to pandemic, continued diet and tried naturally over the summer 2nd Opinion with another RE | 8.20.20 | Not immune to measles (received 1 dose); SA results similar to 2 years ago; decided to move forward with FET #2 redo at start of next cycle Surprise natural BFP! | 9.22.20 | MC 10.23.20 at 8 weeks TTCAL naturally | starting 11.22.20 Initial consultation with Reproductive Immunologist | 9.14.21 Decidualization score biopsy | 10.1.21 | abnormal - low score of 1; endometrial scratch recommended and progesterone supplementation Saline sono | 10.15.21 | normal Bloodwork | 10.21.21 | high TSH, high testosterone, positive for anti-nuclear antibodies and histone antibodies, high protein S, multiple genetic mutations BFP! | 11.3.21 | EDD 7.14.22 | biopsy provided same effect as endometrial scratch; added supplemental progesterone and estrogen, prednisone, levothyroxine, and MTX Support to maintain pregnancy DS born 7.19.22 after induction

@bows22 I'm not sure if they can tell how many days after O it is - but I feel like they might be able to estimate based on how high progesterone is showing at. It's definitely a question I'll be asking!

I swear i still love you guys but I cannot keep up and trying to go back and tag so many people is exhausting. Maybe I should just be stepping back from the dailies for a while.
@jrouge12 I go back on Tuesday, students return on Thursday. How about you?
@tyrion_ I hope your calf heals quickly. That sucks that you get into a workout groove and then it screeches to a halt. Your weekend plans sound fun, though! BTW I am hearing all these announcements about changes at Epcot and my head is spinning! I'm excited though, I think it's well past time and they definitely needed more rides.
@kpearse99 I hope your DH feels better! Never fun when illness hits during FW.
@gingermama29 I definitely feel like I blinked and it was mid-August. I don't blame you for wanting to wait to go back into your classroom. I am going tomorrow but if there's still no laminate in the laminator I don't know what I'm going to do!
@saladflambe good luck at the podiatrist tomorrow!
@b_1029 I agree with you, take the day off Friday and do something nice for yourself while your DH is at work.
@bows22 FX you get a + OPK soon! I am still waiting on mine. Let's go, ovaries!
@mvt2003 I think I might O a bit earlier this cycle too. Hope we can move over to TWW soon!
@misshelen86 so sorry about CD1. So many hugs. I hope you were able to do something nice for yourself today.
@whitealbum29 I'm glad you were able to open up to your mom about TTC. It definitely helps to have support from people other than your SO.
@bluetickgal I'm glad you had such a nice weekend! I hear you on the "bad food". We discovered Buffalo Cheez-its this weekend. I think we have a new kryptonite!
@whitealbum29 omg that cake looks amazing! I'm glad you told your mom. IIT definitely feels good to have someone know and be in your corner with support.
@bluetickgal glad you had a nice weekend. I hope you're able to get back on track without difficulty this week!
@jrouge12 I totally get being cautious about what personal information you post on a public site. I'm very much that way too. It's definitely safer that way. Teaching HS is cool though. In college, I was so sure I wanted to teach HS level and now that I'm in elementary, I can't imagine teaching anything else (yay for K-12 certification). I think my personality is better suited for the younger kids.
@emeraldduchess I bought a laminator on Amazon a couple years ago for like $25. Best decision ever! The only downside is that I'm limited on size of my project by what will fit into an 8.5x11 sleeve. But I love having my own and not having to send stuff out to be laminated. Could be an option for you if the laminator is still out tomorrow.
@inthewoods23@b_1029 When it gets out of hand like that I will sometimes do my replies on the notes app on my phone and then copy and paste them over. It’s still annoying but it does eliminate the scrolling up and down. I don’t think the tags actually work even though they turn blue but I feel like people are checking the thread and don’t really need the notification.
@jrouge12 I love that motto! ☺️ We made fairly healthy chili tonight and did the elliptical, so not a bad start to the week!
@bows22 we do the same...I track my food during the week and don’t at all during the weekend. This was just an exceptionally bad eating weekend! Italian, big breakfast, dessert twice...but it was all so good! I probably do more of a 65/35 rule, and that works for maintaining....maybe I need to get closer to the 80/20. Bahaha, I love the source!
@whitealbum29 thanks, we had a pretty good start tonight. I’m so glad you shared the tres leches recipe, I want to try and make it before long!!
@b_1029 I feel ya! I tried my best to keep up with the dailies, but I failed at posting in any of the weeklies...so I have a lot of catching up to do tomorrow!
@emeraldduchess thanks! Oh...Buffalo Cheez-It’s, I think I need those in my life!
@gingermama29 thanks! We made healthy(ish) chili and did the elliptical, so an ok start! Did you get your workout video today?
@bluetickgal It did! I'm planning to start it tomorrow! I took a walk to the park and back today since it didn't get here until late afternoon.
@bows22 that's a brilliant idea, using notes! I almost exclusively mobile home and the scrolling up and down is frustrating. But I am really loving being a part of this awesome community so it's been worth it. I'm excited to try your notes strategy for the days when it gets crazy, like today!
