QOTW: what was the last movie you saw in a theater?

Ps. Sorry this us a day late. DH is a teacher and were in our final days before school is back in full swing, so we're packing in as much summer vacay activities as possible. I look forward to getting back here.

    Cycle status:  Day 7 of stims.  My E2 was only 71 on Wednesday after 5 days of stims.  I only had 6 measurable follies growing.  I knew my numbers wouldn't be great because of my diagnosis but I wasn't expecting things to be this bad.  I just have to pray that I will be one of those "slow and steady to grow" success stories.  My RE said everything would be fine as long as those little six keep growing and we don't lose any.  I'm feeling pretty defeated but trying not to be too negative, my body is doing what it can.

    QOTW:  Divergent!  We have one of those fancy AMC theaters by us where to sit in lazy boy type chair.  My book club read the book and then went to see the movie instead of having our usual meeting (where no one really talks about the book and we just drink a lot of wine).

    CD4 of a Premarin cycle (estrogen therapy). I had my surgery on Monday to remove the retained tissue from my May D&C and everything went great. Except for the fact that I now have a balloon catheter stuck up my lady parts, but that's coming out tomorrow, so cheers to that! We're currently TTA while I finish this course of hormone therapy. Looking at IUI in October.

    QOTW: The last movie I saw in the theater was Wes Anderson's Grand Budapest Hotel.

    Hysteroscopy surgery went well. There was a lot (extensive as the doctor said) scar tissue but it was removed. I'm on BCPs while waiting to heal. My RE is on vacation this week so I call on Monday for my next step. Today is CD21 but because I'm on the pill who knows. I hope I'm healed well enough to start my FET next cycle.

    QOTW: Divergent as well. It was alright. The book is always better!

    CD 19, natural cycle. Have been spotting/ bleeding for 4 days and my doctor is useless. I called and said "I'm having mid cycle spotting. Why?" the nurse calls me back and says "Dr. Harris says it sounds like you're just having some mid cycle spotting"....
    :-w Really? you don't say. Whatever it is I'm assuming it's not good news.  Sigh...

    ALSO, found out DH has low testosterone and now we are getting the run around from different docs as to how to proceed. UGH!

    Last movie I saw was The Other Woman, surprisingly funny and cute :)

    (edited because I'm apparently blocking out the low testosterone thing. I keep forgetting and then remembering all over again)

    I just finished AF of the cycle marking 4 years TFAS. Waiting/going natural until DS's testing is done. Then we have to decide to call it or go for treatment based on results. Not looking forward to that decision because I don't want to have to decide not to seek Tx (unless DH's surgery dramatically improves his s/a results, things don't look great for us).

    Oh and QOTW- we just got home from Planes:Fire and Rescue for the 3rd time. DS cried because Dusty crashed. Not sad, silent tears- my 5-year-old ugly-cried at the theater. It was adorable but I felt sorry for him. He was so devastated. His face is still tear-stained. :(

    CD 1- gearing up for first IUI cycle. 

    I honestly can't remember the last movie that I saw in the theater. It has been a long time since I went to one.

    Cd11 natural cycle. I had some unusual cd 8-9 spotting. I know cycles change at will, jus never happened this soon in my cycle. I've been cramping too for the past few days. I know its not even remotely possible to be anything pregnancy related, that would be absurd. Because I would have had to of ovulated like cd3 which is bonkers. So I'm chalking it up to my endo and cursing it every chance I get. Just really really inconvenient lol.


    Dh anf I start a serious work out routine monday , and I'm not looking fwd too...

    The last movie I saw was the last released twilight movie. My mil and sil and I went to the premier
