Re: WTO Tuesday
I am throwing a massive 4th of July party to show these Brits how its done! We are talking made from scratch strawberry shortcakes, red velvet cake, mocktails and cocktails (though I obs won't be having any of those!) I have even gotten cake sparklers and American flag decorations for our living room. I can't wait!

What are you doing to get KU: I had planned on sex EOD, but so far its been every day because clearly my hormones are outta control and I can't get enough of DH, also checking cm, eating super healthy, and exercising.
Rant/Rave/Chart Stalk: As I mentioned above, my hormones are crazy this month. Idk what my deal is, but I can't get enough of DH. I'm gonna try to hold off on tonight since I really would rather do sex EOD. We'll see.
GTKY: 4th of July plans? Watching the fireworks downtown. DH and I have Friday and Saturday off but no real plans yet. I'm sure we'll find a cookout or something to go to.

What are you doing to get KU: BDing 2 days on 1 day off.
Rant/Rave/Chart Stalk: My chart is out of control (linked in siggy) . I wish it would get back to normal. It seems to be getting closer but who knows.
GTKY: 4th of July plans? Working and some BBQ

Month/Cycle: 1st TTCAL, D&C 6/22 @9w2d
CD: 9
What are you doing to get KU: Easing into sex again. Temping, tracking CM, $-store HPTs to follow the drop from last pregnancy (I've been falling on schedule so far, I should be 39 today, possibly - HPT tomorrow or Thursday a.m.), and $-store OPKs, I'm busting out my saliva OPK microscope today, starting S.A.D. lamp treatment to jump-start FSH. Continuing prenatals, iron for anemia, krill oil, starting Mucinex for EWCM, B6 for luteal phase, and calcium+magnesium to give having a daughter a remote shot.
Rant/Rave/Chart Stalk: I know my odds of ovulating perfectly on schedule are slim, but fingers crossed because I have travel away from DH planned the second week of July.
GTKY: Nothing big, our family tradition is to climb up on the roof and watch all the shows from the 7 surrounding municipalities, and scramble down periodically and make s'mores. The kids love it.
CD: 64
What are you doing to get KU: The usuals... plus I've increased the OPKs to almost every time I pee. I really don't know why, but it gives me some sort of sick pleasure.
Rant/Rave/Chart Stalk: It's CD 64. As I have it figured, each day is one day closer to O-ing, AF, and/or some sort of medical intervention. So, there's that.
GTKY: 4th of July plans? Sadly, none. I'll probably go play in our gardens. The flower gardens could use some serious TLC right about now, and our tomatoes have blight. Luckily, there are a few volunteer tomato plants growing by the peas that we haven't pulled. I might try to cage them when we pull the peas, in an attempt to get some sort of crop this year.
Rant/Rave/Chart Stalk: I'm thinking I should discard all my high post D&C temps if tomorrow stays low. My cover line has traditionally always been 97.3-97.4. I know it won't be perfect, maybe a smidge higher? Just part of getting back to normal I guess.
CD: 3
What are you doing to get KU: once AF is gone, we'll get back to sex EOD or so and checking CM.
Rant/Rave/Chart Stalk: this is my first time charting in over 3 years so I'm trying to remember to temp everyday and everything that goes along with charting.
GTKY: 4th of July plans? nothing big. probably grill out then go down to the beach to watch the fireworks.
CD: 24
What are you doing to get KU: charting and temping, bd during fertile days and whenever we feel the mood, started prenatals
Rant/Rave/Chart Stalk: still no temp confirmation of ovulation. Had 2 positive opks sunday and monday. This mornings was negative but temp was not any higher than normal. Heres my chart: http:/fertilityfriend.com/home/5addce
GTKY: 4th of July plans? Going to the Sun Down Salute. A big celebrations that happens in the town right off post. It's my first one so I'm pretty excited.
Month/Cycle: 2/2
CD: 13
What are you doing to get KU: charting, vitamins, opks
Rant/Rave/Chart Stalk: I'm pretty convinced inoculated on Saturday, but when I add future higher temps FF still won't give me cross hairs. My post o temps are probably not high enough but grrrrr.
GTKY: 4th of July plans? We go to DH's grandparents house for. Every. Holiday.
CD: 5
What are you doing to get KU: AF is on the outs, so going to start BD EOD this week, and then ramp it up to ED next week as I typically O around CD13-15.
Rant/Rave/Chart Stalk: See ya, AF! Let's get this show on the road!
GTKY: 4th of July plans? July 4th is my husbands birthday (he likes to say he's a little firecracker)
3/16 - Started infertility testing
4/16 - SA results: borderline low count/morph
8/16 - Ultrasound and HSG: all clear! Prescribed Bromocriptine for elevated Prolactin levels.
9/16 - Prolactin down to normal levels!
IUI #1 - 9/21/16 - Clomid 50mg, Estrace, Ovidrel, Progesterone/Estradiol - 4 follies - BFP! EDD 6/15/17 Team PINK!
CD: 21
What are you doing to get KU: Temping, checking CM, sexsexsex
Rant/Rave/Chart Stalk: Finally seeing some fertile CM and my temp dipped this morning, so I'm hoping that means something!
GTKY: 4th of July plans?
The 3rd is DS's 1st birthday, so we'll be having his party on the 4th

What are you doing to get KU: All the crazy fun stuff
Rant/Rave/Chart Stalk: I suck at temping. I started off so well but then it's been a mess of not sleeping well and not being home. Ugh:/ also if I O when FF is predicting based on my last cycle DH will be out of town. Best I would be able to do is BD -4, possibly 0 and 1
GTKY: 4th of July plans? Just work and clean. Maybe hang out with some friends

What are you doing to get KU: AF is finally gone so we can start the fun! Probably EOD, cm checks, etc. no OPKs this month, but will start next
Rant/Rave/Chart Stalk: just getting back into the swing of things since i haven't temp/charted for 2 years. last month and this month's charts are looking ok so far.
GTKY: 4th of July plans? every year we go to my DH's family's so we'll be doing that again, only this time it looks like we will have a potty training toddler in tow.
Month/Cycle: 4/3
CD: 3
What are you doing to get KU: practicing patience, praying, and trying to not eat everything I want all the time. And of course the obvious, BD during FW and when I want to, temps, ovulation monitoring by RE, prenatals, exercise
Rant/Rave/Chart Stalk: my last cycle lasted exactly 14 days with confirmed ovulation date on CD 9. That means my luteal phase was only 5 days long. That does not even begin to make sense. Hopefully the dr will have some insight as to what the heck is going on tomorrow. I don't understand how my cycle can be so irregular.
GTKY: 4th of July plans? Garth Brooks concert!!!! I am so excited for this weekend I can hardly contain myself. I see some margs in my future!
CD: 2
What are you doing to get KU: Sex EOD once AF is gone.
Rant/Rave/Chart Stalk: I signed up for Fertility Friend yesterday but it kinda freaked me out. I really don't think temping is my thing because it just sounds stressful and like a lot of work. I can barely remember to take my PNV every day. But answer me this: I have always been pretty positive when I've O'd even before I started looking everything up on making babies because I get cramps before and because of my CM. If you consistently have this shouldn't that be good enough to know when you need to start getting down business without temping? Why does everyone say you "can't know" when you've O'd if you aren't temping. Personally I'm pretty aware when it's coming and know when it happens.
GTKY: 4th of July plans? Having both side of the family over for a BBQ.
Fur babies: Phoenix and Yeti (both cats).
September 2016- Infertility Testing
dx: Low Progesterone, Vitamin D Deficiency, Borderline PCOS
Treatment:
October 2016-January 2017- Metformin, Clomid/Letrozole, hcg trigger, progesterone
IUI- 2/17/2017 BFP 3/2/2017!
Although you have always been regular with your symptoms, that could change without warning. Also, when you are TTC, it is amazing how much more sensitive you become to "symptoms." Temping really helps validate that what you felt and saw was O symptoms, as those symptoms can occur at other times in your cycle.
BFP: 8/11/18 Due: 4/26/18
