Tonight I'm seeing two of my closest girl friends for a ladies wine night! We try to get together every month or two to just catch up and chat and sip some vino!

@keikilove Me too with the consistent workouts!! It's been so great for my mind and my body and I find myself actually looking forward to my morning sessions! I'm so happy you've found something to elevate your mood! Also, thank you for posting in this thread too haha I was worried I'd be the only one

@keikilove what workouts have you been doing? I've been spinning consistently for about 14 weeks now, and it has made such a difference for me and my mood.
@bbrahmbhatt major win for the clomid effects being short lived!! Keep that happy dance going, friend!

@bbrahmbhatt Way to go with the spinning! AFM, I’ve been taking multiple brisk walks a day or going for a jog when I feel like it. I’m supposed to be doing gentle workouts due to ER coming up, but sometimes the body wants to go fast! 😄
It’s finally not a million degrees + humid here so for the past 2 days I’ve been able to take the dog for a quick walk at lunchtime. So great for both of us!
I made zucchini bread yesterday and it is sooooooo good! DH is also the best. The air conditioning in my car is busted so he drove me to my interview today. He didn't want me walking in looking like a sweaty mess.
You know what's wonderful? The little we've seen of Peggy's over the last month or so. They've been pretty sporadic and I'm okay with that.

@bbrahmbhatt it's our equivalent to calling someone a Karen. We call the people who write their own posts and/or post their pee sticks breaking the rules asking if they're KU as Peggy. There's some actual reasoning to choosing that name but I don't remember!
Also, you'll hear the full moon mentioned a bunch because it always seems like they come out and post right around the time of the full moon.

@bbrahmbhatt I like TB because the community is actually a community. Other sites.... are a whole lot of "is this positive", "who are my TWW buddies", or "who's testing at the end of the month" kind of posts. Which is great when I want to be stupid with Dr. Google (yes I was looking up cryptic pregnancies on Tuesday), but I can't imagine how people make any kind of personal connection with others on those sites.

@inthewoods23 that is the Premom Facebook group. I hate it there. It’s a bunch of people posting positive OPKs 2 days after O and asking why it’s high and people responding “you’re Ku, congrats.” No, OPKs do not detect pregnancy. Stop giving people false hope. I hate it there.
