WAYDTGKU: letrozole and IUI

R/R: chugging along. The semester is fully underway now, so I'm getting used to getting up in the morning, but I get to sleep in the next few days, woo! Still keeping an eye on Saturday and hoping for a peak OPK today or Saturday so we could IUI tomorrow or Sunday, since that'd be ideal schedulewise.

@fantasyflyte oh I’m so keeping my fingers crossed for you! 

Month/Cycle: 2/2

CD: 8

WAYDTGKU: BBT, OPK

R/R: I was officially allowed to be out of isolation today as long as my symptoms decreased dramatically. I decided I needed 1 more day. So I’m home by myself for the first time since isolation started, and it’s so nice and quiet! I’m watching Sweet Magnolias finally and resting in my PJ’s drinking coffee ❤️ I feel like I needed this calm day with everything going on. Side note: we got a phone call yesterday that with the extreme cold, it’s taking 2 days for the excavator to dig for houses instead of 1 day, so our dig day got pushed to a week from today. I’m bummed, but also glad they’re taking their time instead of trying to rush. 

CS/Q: Nothing to look at yet. 

Edited to change name of show… 🤦🏼‍♀️

@ejoseph16 sorry you're still under the weather but enjoy your relaxation day!

@fantasyflyte your chart is looking good so far so I hope your OPK turns on desired schedule.

@ejoseph16 ah, now I have my answer as to how they can dig in such extreme cold! I’m sorry the dig date got delayed but you’ve got the right attitude. Enjoy your relaxing day.

Month/Cycle: 24/19/2AL

CD: 6

WAYDTGKU: everything plus TCM herbs; want to try moxabustion too.

R/R: I’m going to be cautiously optimistic on saying that I already see the difference in my cycle due to herbs. Normally I bleed for 4 days and then also have gunky brown spotting for 3 more days but this time around, given that my flow was so heavy and vividly red on CD2, I think all of the uterine lining got cleared out in just 4 days! That has never happened before. Ever. I remember in college some of my friendly would rub in my face just how short their periods were compared to mine which were usually 7 days. 

CS/Q: nope; but temp is nice and low according to Oura.

@acleverusername yes! I was going to respond to that yesterday, we got the call right after I read your question. So I decided to save it for today! We are supposed to warm up next week to 30 degrees or more, so they are doing the 2 day digs for this week and early next week. Ours should just be a 1 day dig, but they blocked out 2 days just in case!  Your herbs sound fantastic! I’ve always been a 6-8 day girl, too… a shorter AF sounds wonderful. Hopefully you get similar results from the other herbs!
