    tw: child loss mentioned 

    Im all over the place these past two weeks. I've been mia because I've been so busy. Good and bad. My good friend who is stateside lost her son to suicide and the next morning I found out my coworkers sister lost her baby who was born premature. He was 10 days old. His twin sister is doing well so that's good news. I was an absolute mess that week and then feeling guilty about being upset at being in month 10 when these people are suffering much more than I am. Then my BFF at work just found out she's 5 weeks pregnant. I'm so happy for her as she's been trying a year but I just never imagined being this far into it and still nothing. It was nice to have someone to commiserate with in person that knew the struggles of ttc. 
    Making me feel better is the fact that my mom is visiting me. :) it's my fertile week though and we've only been able to have sex twice. It seems I may be o'ing late though so I've got that going for me. 
    Im just ready for February to be over. I never seem to have a good February. Come on March!
    Sorry for ranting. I needed to have a pity party.

    WAYDTGKTFU: BBT, BD EOD (considering preseed--what's the consensus over her on it?)

    R/R/CS: Feeling a weird mix of nerves and excitement as FW rolls around. A feeling I think many of you have described--feeling hopeful but then trying to shut up the hopefulness so as not to get too disappointed again...am I making sense?

    Question--any of you ladies have luck with a glass BBT thermometer? DH is a light sleeper and was going crazy from the digital thermometer beeping. I've started using glass but am feeling kinda meh about it. (I guess in this digital age I am suspicious of anything that doesn't have a screen  :p ) Curious to hear others' experiences with glass! 

    GTKY:  What is something your SO does that used to drive you nuts, but you now catch yourself doing? This is a hard question for 7:30 AM! Maybe leave his stuff all over the house? I go crazy when his stuff is everywhere but I am totally guilty. This is probably more hypocrisy than picking up his habits but you get the point. :) 
  • @Marley629 I definitely tell at drivers too. Haha! 
    @michmich11 would a glass thermometer be accurate enough? Like would you be able to clearly see the temp to decimal points? I've used a glass thermometer before but don't remember it being clear when it came to tenths and certainly not hundredths. I could be wrong though. It's definitely been awhile!

    WAYDTGKTFU: BBT, OPK, PNV, Pre-Seed, CoQ10, + B6.

    R/R/CS: My temp spiked yesterday, but no EWCM and no Positive OPK, and it was back down to normal levels this morning so I am thinking it was a fluke (or cause I am under the weather, even though it was still under 98.6).  So, still finding charting frustrating.  DH is loving it cause my FW has lasted 8 days now so we keep going at it.  I am hoping this cold doesn't mess up my cycle too bad, but it seems the worst of it has passed so I am keeping my FX for O soon! (My Once App, which I used before I started temping and switched to FF this cycle, predicts O tomorrow, so there's still hope for this cycle.

    GTKY:  What is something your SO does that used to drive you nuts, but you now catch yourself doing? DH gets really annoyed when people say "I know" because he thinks it belittles the person you say it to.  I used to think this was super irritating because "I know" are my two favorite words when used together, but now I hear how it does sound belittling when other people say it to me.

    WAYDTGKTFU: Everything.

    R/R/CS: I'm going to scream today. Pardon the rant but I have to get this off of my chest. So first off, I wake up at 4am from a terrible dream where I gave birth to this beautiful baby girl but I don't remember being in the hospital. I wake up and can see her and my husband keeps talking to me about her but I don't feel like I just gave birth. I get up to hold her, and feel a gush of blood, run to the bathroom, and the pain starts like it did with my MC. When I finally get out, she's disappeared and then I woke up. So I started my morning off terribly. Now I check into Facebook this morning and a girl from my graduating class, whose not even in a relationship, just gave birth and is posting baby pictures. And the girl who got KU at 16, and is still single, just announced she's having her second baby due the same month I was supposed to be. I just can't handle today.

    GTKY:  What is something your SO does that used to drive you nuts, but you now catch yourself doing?
    Probably his obsession with all of the same types of silverware needing to be in one basket in the dishwasher. He used to correct me constantly. Now that we have our own place, it's a requirement.

    R/R/CS: my chart is annoying me. I *think* I O'd on CD25 but I've just had slight temp increases.  There is no temp I can put tomorrow that would give me CH on CD 25. If I disregard it and put in higher temps for CD 29 and 30, I get CH for CD25. If I put 3 more high temps in I get CH today. Ugh all of this just makes me think this cycle is potentially anovulatory cuz all other O signs have left the building so I don't think today is O. CS if you want to weigh in on my craziness. 

    GTKY:  What is something your SO does that used to drive you nuts, but you now catch yourself doing? DH works in IT support so he always fixes other people's stuff and basically the first step of all tech support is to reboot your device. He would always lecture me too if I would complain about my iPhone not working and ask when was the last time I restarted it. Now when other people at work complain about their computers not working, I'm like "when was the last time you rebooted?" And now I get annoyed when people don't want to restart. Ok then stop complaining about it freezing then.

    R/R/CS: My temperature finally dropped back down below last cycle's cover line today. I O'd on CD11 last cycle but it doesn't look like that'll happen again. Oh well, I'm just glad my body seems to be figuring itself out.

    GTKY:  my DH is so calm. Nothing bothers him. I know it's a good quality to have, but I'm more inclined to worry about everything and his calmness used to freak me out. Now I'm doing my very best to relax and accept things more without worrying so much. It's really hard.

    @michmich11 I haven't used a glass thermometer, but I have noticed that if I'm all covered with blankets the thermometer beep isn't audible from outside the blankets. I temp vaginally because of sleeping with my mouth open, but I maybe if you put your head under the covers it might muffle it enough that he can't hear it

    @H4aPartyof5 You reminded me that I should probably force myself to go to the gym today too!

    WAYDTGKTFU: Everything. Doing my first IUI cycle this month

    R/R/CS: I am torn about calling my RE office today to re-schedule my ultrasound next Wednesday. The original plan was to do an ultrasound on CD12 to measure the follicles and then trigger that night and do IUI on CD14. The problem is that in the past I have O'ed as early as CD12 so I don't want to miss my chance. I am thinking of having her reschedule to CD10 and then if the follies are still small then to just do another one on CD12.

    GTKY:  What is something your SO does that used to drive you nuts, but you now catch yourself doing? DH is consistently LATE to everything and it used to drive me crazy (still does pretty much) but now I am a little better at handling it and when we are late I don't get so stressed out. I don't know if that counts but it is all I could think of.

    Interrupting.  H will change subject in the middle of a conversation because he wanted to tell me something unrelated.  I find myself doing it now and it drives me NUTS - it's so rude and I know better.

    R/R/CS: a little nervous because I'm getting my trigger shot today. I have one good, mature follicle which is exciting. RE says she'd prefer to see 1-2 more before triggering, but I'm going on a girls trip Saturday morning and won't be back until Tuesay, so she doesn't want to miss it. A little sad that this trip is leaving me with a slightly imperfect situation, but she said I should be good! Just need to HIO next two days before I'm away from DH. 

    Also, she absentmindedly said "too bad you can't drink on your girls trip." I was like, "huh? But won't the egg still be floating around in my tubes til the end of next week?" Hahaaa! I probably sounded like an alcoholic. I promise I'm not, but I'm def in the 'sip til it's pink' camp and, other than Vday, I can't remember the last time I had a drink. She did soften a little and said a drink or two would be fine, but not to overdo it, which was my plan anyway.

    CD: 12

    WAYDTGKTFU: injections, trigger, IUI

    R/R/CS: I triggered yesterday at my doctors office and had my IUI this morning. DH's specimen was good, but not great (9M). The doctor said to go ahead and BD tonight and tomorrow just to cover all basis. My mom was really drilling me this morning when I dropped DS at her house. DH and I are pretty private about going through treatments because our families/friends just don't understand and having to repeatedly tell people month after month that it was not successful is too hard. So my mom got super offended that "I'm being so private and evasive" and I just told her that it wasn't really about her and left. Picking up DS is going to be interesting... On a positive note, DS is feeling much better!

    GTKY:  My DH always drives like he's late for something (he usually is) and sometimes I find myself hurrying and getting annoyed with other people when I'm just running errands and don't really have a "schedule" per se.  Also, once he's on the couch for the night he's done and I've found myself doing the same.

  • @Megzb510 I could see CD25 or even CD24 because of temps trending up and they are just so much more stable following a period of fertile CM (that has been a huge O cue for me for long cycles).  All of your OPKs are negative...was there one that looked the darkest that you could call your OPK+ and are they becoming lighter again?  I'd keep HIO and using OPKs just in case, but definitely see what your chart does the next few days.  If you still aren't getting CHs after a few more higher temps, you may be able to get them by choosing another detection methods on FF, even if your coverline might be an issue if your temps don't climb much more.  Good luck, I hope you head over to TWW soon!

    R/R/CS: No temp again this morning... Another nose bleed. This weather. Geez.

    In other news, I'm enjoying my RRL "regimen" very much.

    In other other news, EVERYONE IS PREGNANT and I feel lousy about it. But DH is really enjoying the TTC process so I'm trying to relax and have fun.

    GTKY: Hm... Maybe procrastinating. I used to be bad for this like back in high school. I worked a lot in college and nursing school, and was unable to procrastinate because of it so I broke myself of it. DH is such a procrastinator though, when we are both home together it's like nothing is accomplished but hanging out and chatting and cooking dinner... Don't get me wrong, I love that time with him, I'm just frustrated I'm catching the procrastination but once more.

    @jmr1515 - Try not to Dr. Google things! It's such a spiral :(
    @sarah0985 - Sorry for the rough few weeks there! I'm sure it was a bummer to lose the TTC buddy - but I know you're happy for her too.

It hurt my feelings, and I ended up tossing and turning for 2 hours straight. For those of you with DH that have the same issue: have any of them tried using medication to make things better? I'm grasping at straws here, and just want things to be normal.

    GTKY:  What is something your SO does that used to drive you nuts, but you now catch yourself doing?
    Like PP, my DH also makes up silly songs. It used to drive me nuts, but I am used to it now, but I don't do it.  Other than that, the first time DH invited me over to his apartment before we were dating, I was totally turned off because he had a table set up for flip cup. I thought that was such a bro-y thing to do, but I tried it and LOVED it. Now if we ever have a get together with friends, I always suggest it. Haha.

  • Month/Cycle: 4/3

    CD: 21

    WAYDTGKTFU: PNV, EPO, OPK, HIO

    R/R/CS: Slowwwww rise happening.  If I discard those wacky-ass temps from the weekend and put in an even slightly higher temp for tomorrow, I get dotted CH for CD19.  If I leave those temps in, I get dotted CH for CD16.  I definitely know that CD16 is not a possibility because of CM and CP.  I'm going to go ahead and keep those temps discarded since the rule of thumb is that if your temps keep FF from identifying a pattern, you should discard them.  And really, I shouldn't have even temped either of those days.  I temped hours late and hungover as F and with horrifically disrupted sleep.  So they are bad data.  And they're MY bad data, so I can do whatever I want with them.




    Apart from drinking-related temp spikes, this month's chart (so far) makes so much more sense than my previous two charts, which I happen to believe were both anovulatory (although FF thinks I ovulated both times).  Timing has been great for CD19 O, and I'm trying not to hold out hope for my body getting it's ish together but ughhhhhhh THE BSC ALREADY.


    GTKY:  What is something your SO does that used to drive you nuts, but you now catch yourself doing? My husband says "officially" when he doesn't mean "officially."  Especially about chivalrous things.  He'll say, "officially, I'm supposed to walk on the road side of the sidewalk" or "officially, I should sleep on the door side of the room."  It's not only with that stuff, but those are the examples I think of right away.  I used to tease him about it, but now I catch myself saying it all the time.

  • @zrain Thanks! I thought of going under the blankets to temp but was worried it would cause the temperature to be higher. Maybe I will stick with glass this cycle and change to digital under covers if there's a next cycle...
  • @michmich11 my DH used to complain about the beeping so once I hear the first beep, I slide it under my pillow to muffle the last ones. This way at least it isn't a short spurt of consistent beeps to annoy him
  • @sarah0985 I'm very sorry for all the losses between you and your friends. Sending positive vibes your way. 

    Month/Cycle: 1

    CD: 15

    WAYDTGKTFU: tracking CM

    R/R/CS: Gonna move to TWW tomorrow. I went to Walmart and bought a crapton of their .88 cent HPTs :D  SO looked at me like I was crazy, which is true haha, but I already know I'll be an obsessive tester and this way I won't feel bad about wasting them. 

    GTKY:  What is something your SO does that used to drive you nuts, but you now catch yourself doing?

    Using made up words. My SO is weird as hell and uses fake words just to annoy me, and now I've started doing it to. One of the worst is "appreciatetate" ugh


  • @jmr1515 Well crud, that answers my lingering question from the at-home SA about if one of the other two can be low despite a good count. H passed his count but obviously it doesn't test the other two. What changes are they suggesting for your DH?

    @sarah0985 I'm sorry you've had such a rough week. It doesn't make you selfish to still be concerned about what's going on with you. It makes you human. 

    @nwegman7878 That sounds like a horrible dream! Anything reliving the loss is bad but yours seemed particularly cruel with the vanishing newborn. I have one recurring where I do the kindergarten drop off and start hemorrhaging again (like, the beginning of the movie Eastern Promises bad) and instead of worrying about losing the baby or dying, I'm panicking over traumatizing a class of 5 year olds for life. Normally I say drink all the wines but to yours I add, unplug for 48hrs if you can or haven't already.

    @DiFazette The one day a month when we flat out cannot have sex even if we're really in the mood is the day after O because my CP drops to LFH and H gets about halfway in before bottoming out. Like, we've had to flat out stop right after penetration if I didn't check CP yet. Any chance you O'd ridonkulously early?

    @virginiaham OMG, any chance your H is a bigamist and married to me too? That's my irrational mountain-out-of-a-molehill Type-A hubby, hands off! 

    @michmich11 Two words: vaginal temping. Assuming you're normal and don't have a thigh gap. Use those luscious fleshy thighs in conjunction with blankets to silence the siren song of your digital temping.

    Month/Cycle: 2/2

    CD9

    WAYDTGKU: Temp, CM, CP, POAS OPK, Saliva OPK, extra folic acid, PNV gummies, Cal/Mag/Zinc, SAD lamp to increase FSH & LH, Guaifenesin. DH is taking multivitamin, folic acid & zinc. We plan to HIO 2-a-day in FW. 

    R/R/CS: Can we just fast-forward to the interesting bits already?

    GTKY: Play games on the phone. He has at least 3 games that need regular maintenance every day. Then one day I discovered they had a SimCity app! After the app people added a bunch of stuff a few months ago I took a break, but I still pop in every day just to collect the taxes.
  • @Ash9614 - I was in the drink til it's pink camp, and then I gave up alcohol for lent... Now I'm starting to think it may be for the best. I'm a little on the fence about this. I've read a research article about time TTC in women drinking different levels of alcohol per week, and I'm just not sure anymore.

    @virginiaham - That dream sounds epic.

    @DiFazette - when I am close to O (and I'm assuming when my CP would be low... I don't check it), if we do a deeper penetration position I definitely feel pain. Some times it's not too bad, sometimes it's a little too much and we need to change. I've cramped from this before, as well. That said, if it continues to happen it may be something to have checked out?
  • @GhanimaAtreides the doctor isn't concerned so she didn't prescribe him anything. There are apparently some supplements you can take but morphology is tricky to change.

    Next step is to get me tested but that won't be for a while (still waiting on the referral). My GP doesn't think there is anything wrong with me since my cycles are super regular and ovulatory. 

    The waiting game continues...

  • @michmich11 Not that this is especially helpful advice, but it is a funny anecdote.  When I first started temping my thermometer would go off and my husband in his sleep would say "Beep Beep" in a weird high pitched voice.  It was pretty hilarious.

    @GhanimaAtreides - thanks, anything is possible - but my temps and CM don't really line up with O that early.  

    @khbear - thanks.  I don't think it's much to be concerned about since it's happened once ever. I'm hoping my cervix is just low due to Oing very soon and that would mean our timing is awesome!  I'm going with the positive spin on this!

    WAYDTGKTFU:  most of the things. waiting for DH to come home. 

    R/R/CS:  My pre-O temps have been ultra low this cycle. WTF body? What. the. fvck. It makes me think this cycle is going to be another unsuccessful one just because temps have been so rocky and weird. Another busy day at work, so sorry for posting & running, but I'll try to come back later! 

    GTKY:  What is something your SO does that used to drive you nuts, but you now catch yourself doing?  Hmm... I think I may have gotten slightly messier since we started living together... Neither of us are slobs, but he's not as tidy a human as I would like him to be.

    WAYDTGKTFU: allll the things once DH gets home on Sunday

    R/R/CS: Last day of TamiFlu and finally feeling human again! I'm soooo nervous about this Flu messing up O this month but I guess only time will tell. Temps are finally back down in my normal range so I discarded all the high ones from the past week and my chart has the beginnings of a normal one. 

    GTKY:  What is something your SO does that used to drive you nuts, but you now catch yourself doing?
    I used to be a compulsive bed-maker, but DH wouldn't make the bed if his life depended on it. I've definitely slacked off and left it unmade significantly more since we moved in together. But when he's out of town... it's on!
