Month/cycle: Edit: technically still month 2 for a few more days /3
CD: 1 - I'm back! Woke up to a nice big temp drop and then AF.
WAYDTGKU: Currently waiting for AF to disappear. Then many things!
R/R/CS: I already knew AF was coming, but I wasn't expecting her for another 2ish days, so I'm actually really excited to be here today! That means FW will come two weeks sooner! Woot. FW is also during my spring break from work, so lots of things to look forward to there.
GTKY: What one junk food could you not live without? Oh man. Just 1?! I'm thinking cream chipped beef. It's actually a breakfast food - absolutely horrible for you, but I love it so much. It's ridiculous.
R/R/CS: So I had positive OPKs on Friday, Saturday, and yesterday morning still but no temp rise. Starting to fear the positive OPKs were just more PCOS stuff. WTF body.
R/R/CS: Just as I was coming to terms with being in cycle 6, my next door neighbor (and really good friend) texted me to tell me she was pregnant last night. I'm so happy for her, but I can't help but feel like I have a pit inside me. What a weird mix of emotions. Bleh.
GTKY: oh man, so many. I think I'd have to sayyyyyy, donuts.
WAYDTGKU: Nursing DH back to health, and convincing him that we still need to HIO....
R/R/CS: I have to say, this is the first time that BD feels forced, which makes me sad, but I realize we don't have much control over the fact that he feels like crap. I appreciate him making the effort! Hopefully he can keep it up! Last cycle I O's on CD16 and had a big temp drop 2 days before, hoping for something similar this cycle and think it is moving in that direction, only time will tell. Was super happy to see plenty of EWCM yesterday, I still think it's funny how excited I get with any type of O signs...
I had my first BFP dream, It makes me really sad/happy/anxious...
GTKY: What one junk food could you not live without?
Hmm.....This is a hard question. I guess I wouldn't call it junk food, but I really LOVE bread...just like the Oprah weight watchers commercial..."I love bread, I LOVE BREAD"...I can't stand that commercial because it literally makes my mouth water...I feel like she is doing her WW people a disservice with playing it!

@BerkeBaby Sorry, that really sucks, no easier way to put it. I never realized how hard it would be to keep seeing people get pregnant once that was what I wanted. It never gets easier I think the last of our "college" friends announced 2 weeks ago, that stung. Hope you can feel better soon! I am at least so glad to have you guys!

R/R/CS: I cried approximately 1,387 times yesterday. Normally this is my emotionally stable time in my cycle, ha! Also, I think we get H's SA results today. All the nerves over here.
GTKY: What one junk food could you not live without? Pizza for me too! I like a thin crust Hawaiian, and it's usually something we get most Friday nights, and stay in and watch a movie.
I know a few of you are going through SA right now. Anyone have links or old posts they can link so I can read up on when/why/how it's decided to move forward with one?
R/R/CS: I took a bump leave over the holiday weekend. Instead of rejoining after the weekend on a BMB because my temperatures were looking so promising, I'm rejoining on WTO... bummer...

GTKY: What one junk food could you not live without?
Um definitley chocolate. My favorite is dark chocolate.
R/R/CS: well, on Friday I officially had my hardest TTC day... I found out my husbands friends wife is pregnant. She just got her implant out in January. They only saw each other for 2 weeks in the last month and a half. And it was an accident. When I found out, I went to the shower and turned it on super hot and just sat in there and cried. My husband didn't know what to do so he just hugged me.. which was all that I needed. Then I proceeded to drink an entire bottle of wine and god knows how many beers because I can! It was bad. I cried a few other times but not as uncontrollable as that moment. I felt bad bc I was thinking "I've been tryin for 7 months and I haven't even freaking ovulated! And she can get off birth control, ovulate, and get knocked up on accident! Wtf!??" Now I'm more relaxed about it, thankfully.
@houseofsetters So sorry for your rough TTC week. It hurts so much and sometimes all we can do is cry. I am hoping with every bit of me that you get some wonderful SA results today.
R/R/CS: sorry to be a downer, but I just found out a gal I went to high school with and hung out with very recently (last weekend) was killed by a drunk driver early this AM. We were not best friends but I have hung out with her on several occasions in the past two years. There are so many visitors coming to our campus today that I have to meet with so I'm trying to put on a happy face, but I am still in shock. On a positive note, I get to go see my amazing doctor on Wednesday for my yearly physical, woo! Can't wait to talk to her about TTC things.

@wineo929 Sorry about your friend. That can be tough, especially early into a new cycle.

WAYDTGKU: Waiting out AF
R/R/CS: Well, lesson learned from Cycle 5: triphasic chart ≠ pregnant. I was really upset yesterday, knowing that AF was inevitable. SS hardcore last cycle because my PMS symptoms were so different than usual. Coming to terms that I'm not going to have a baby in 2016 was really hard. But, trying to be optimistic today. Scheduling a massage for this week for sure.
Also, I second @wineo929's post about SAs. When/Why/How to move forward?
GTKY: What one junk food could you not live without? ALL the carbs.

R/R/CS: where are you ovulation? my temps are pretty f'd up from being @ the in-laws this past weekend. it's literally non-stop drinking. DH & I are definitely still recovering today. Temps are annoying when drinking, all high & wonky & jacked up. The End.
GTKY: POTATO EVERYTHING. I literally could live on coffee, wine & potatoes for the remainder of my days.

TTC (BBT & FF) #1: April 2015 (Off BC: January 2015)
@wineo929 Just to give you my story, once we hit the 7th cycle mark, I decided to go forward with getting H's SA done. I knew I couldn't get into my OB until April, so at the time I just wanted to have that done to rule out any of those issues. It is inexpensive and it is likely one of the first steps an OB would take anyway, so we went ahead with it. My H scheduled an appointment with his PCP and requested one there and the doctor gave him the order for one. If you read TCOYF, it is mentioned in there that after 4-6 months, it is a good idea to go ahead and get one done as it is simple and cheap and is worth finding that out earlier rather than later. My H's results came back great, so it was nice to know that everything is working on his end as we move forward.
R/R/CS: I've been taking a Tylenol with the Clomid this cycle and it seems to be helping with the headaches, but the abdominal discomfort is still there.
GTKY: What one junk food could you not live without? Chocolate
R/R/CS: Decided on an apartment! We're just going to renew our lease at our current place I'm going to redecorate though and rearrange the furniture so we still have a change
GTKY: What one junk food could you not live without? I'd put pizza as my answer but I don't count that as junk food. When I think junk food I think candy and potato chips, both of which I could easily live without. So I guess I don't really have an answer...
@Zoey1019 the bfp dreams suck. A lot. Also, I totally agree on bread. Especially the crusty sourdough variety. Man... Bread....
@wineo929 the early part of the cycle really is boring. I can't do anything besides be as healthy as I can. I think it's better than my bsc in the tww though.
@houseofsetters obviously being sad isn't good, but crying is healthy! You're doing your body a service, letting it all out. At least that's my personal belief.
WAYDTGKU: Going to try PreSeed and mucinex this month, the other usual things.
R/R/CS: It's Monday, and I am so exhausted from Easter weekend, cooked for my ENTIRE family. Had a couple of people asking me if we had any "announcements" which I shut down with a terse " trying, thanks!" and a dramatic wave of my wine glass.
GTKY: What one junk food could you not live without? Pizza for me as well! And cheese of any kind. And carbs of all kinds.
I'm on mobile bump or I would respond to everyone! I'm sorry for all the CD1's, hard TTC days, ignorant butthead's and yay for any good news you all are having. If I have time when I get home I'll respond to everyone!
Month/cycle: 6/4

WAYDTGKU: Now that AF is gone, RRL tea, CM, OPK(after tomorrow), PNV
R/R/CS: Currently sitting in the lab doing the 3 hour glucose test. The receptionist clearly told the lady taking my blood that this was non-gestational. During taking my first round of blood she proceeds to ask me: do you know what you're having? And I starred at her, and said for what? And she looked at me shocked and said a baby!! And I said I'm not pregnant! And she said then why are you having the test? And I said dead flat, I have PCOS. I could tell she was embarrassed and she did apologize, but then went on to tell me her friend Judy has it "really bad". BITCH WHAT THE FUCK? Hsg tomorrow, so looking forward to those answers.
GTKY: What one junk food could you not live without? Pizza all day every day. And fried rice.
Month/cycle: I don't even want to think about the high number so please allow me to throw myself a pity party and avoid this question as I start my first day of my period and am going to allow myself to be miserable about this for just one day...I promise
CD: big stupid fat CD1
WAYDTGKU: eod/Ed fw, pn vitamin. Frantically wondering what else I am missing!?! Maybe pressed if I can find it?!
R/Rv/cs: I am so sorry to see all the CD 1's. I'm so pissed to be here (if you hadn't deduced that already lol). I let myself go last month. I felt like it happened! I don't SS because I have every different aspect of every different symptom every month (even in wto haha) but I just thought we got it this month! So glad Easter was this weekend to distract me! I am also trying to focus on my next home improvement project...I have repainted and decorated my family room and downstairs bathroom already! I have to keep busy at all times!
GTKY: What one junk food could you not live without? Pizza. OMG pizza. Yes pizza! I need pizza.....or Oreos.....
Just wanting to fill you all in on my CD3 labs. My OBGYN pretty much gave me the dx of "Unexplained Anovulatory Cycles." He said my estrogen is really low (around 39) and my FSH and LH levels are "out of whack" at over 5 each. But here's the kicker where I appreciate all of you ladies and your support and advice so much: He wanted to meet with me so that he could start me on Clomid. I told him I would much rather be referred to an RE because I know that Clomid has a short shelf life and needs to be closely monitored. He sounded shocked, but said he agreed that it was a good idea and recommended two REs to me. I called the RE right away and have an appointment set up for April 19th, which sucks because that means we might be out this cycle...however, I am relieved because now I have a game plan. I feel like most of it is thanks to you all. Thank you for your support, advice, and snark. I think I might have a chance in the next couple of cycles and it's because of you ladies and this forum. to you all!
R/R/CS: I've been lurking a long time and today I decided to start participating I've been frustrated because it's been about 7 months off bc and I'm still not regulated. Periods come regularly but are about 15 days long. 25 day cycles with 15 days of some level of bleeding are really starting to wear on me. AF is finally gone and I'm ready to ovulate soon.
GTKY: What one junk food could you not live without? Blue Bell homemade vanilla ice cream is life.
@BerkeBaby Sooo happy to see this! That is wonderful that you were able to stand up for yourself and your treatment options and I'm glad you are able to get into a RE so soon. I hope this takes some stress off your shoulders momentarily and I'm so hopeful for your future game plan, whatever it may be!

WAYDTGKU: oh... Ya know...
R/R/CS: well, on Friday I officially had my hardest TTC day... I found out my husbands friends wife is pregnant. She just got her implant out in January. They only saw each other for 2 weeks in the last month and a half. And it was an accident. When I found out, I went to the shower and turned it on super hot and just sat in there and cried. My husband didn't know what to do so he just hugged me.. which was all that I needed. Then I proceeded to drink an entire bottle of wine and god knows how many beers because I can! It was bad. I cried a few other times but not as uncontrollable as that moment. I felt bad bc I was thinking "I've been tryin for 7 months and I haven't even freaking ovulated! And she can get off birth control, ovulate, and get knocked up on accident! Wtf!??"
Now I'm more relaxed about it, thankfully.
GTKY: BACON! Definitely bacon.
*TW, friend's death mentioned*
Hoping to get back for responses later this afternoon!

WAYDTGKU: RL tea, PNV, BD EOD starts tomorrow, temping
R/R/CS: sorry to be a downer, but I just found out a gal I went to high school with and hung out with very recently (last weekend) was killed by a drunk driver early this AM. We were not best friends but I have hung out with her on several occasions in the past two years. There are so many visitors coming to our campus today that I have to meet with so I'm trying to put on a happy face, but I am still in shock. On a positive note, I get to go see my amazing doctor on Wednesday for my yearly physical, woo! Can't wait to talk to her about TTC things.

@aliciabhen Sorry to see you over here, but glad that you're in a good place with it!
@wineo929 Sorry about your friend. That can be tough, especially early into a new cycle.
@BerkeBaby I avoided FB all day yesterday because I just had a feeling I would see announcements. Can't imagine having two within the family

WAYDTGKU: Waiting out AF
R/R/CS: Well, lesson learned from Cycle 5: triphasic chart ≠ pregnant. I was really upset yesterday, knowing that AF was inevitable. SS hardcore last cycle because my PMS symptoms were so different than usual. Coming to terms that I'm not going to have a baby in 2016 was really hard. But, trying to be optimistic today. Scheduling a massage for this week for sure.
Also, I second @wineo929's post about SAs. When/Why/How to move forward?
GTKY: What one junk food could you not live without? ALL the carbs.

@Lecool sorry about CD1.
@kellybean1988 I'm so sorry for the loss of your friend. What a terrible thing to have happen.
@mokay19 Ugh. I hope today is a better day. I'm sorry you're having a rough time. You're not alone.
@l9i I'm sorry you're back here, too.
Zoey1019 I feel you on BD feeling forced from time to time. I've been feeling the same way the past few days. Totally over it.
Probably posting and ghosting now...too much work. Womp womp.

R/R/CS: Decided on an apartment! We're just going to renew our lease at our current place
GTKY: What one junk food could you not live without? I'd put pizza as my answer but I don't count that as junk food. When I think junk food I think candy and potato chips, both of which I could easily live without. So I guess I don't really have an answer...
@Zoey1019 the bfp dreams suck. A lot. Also, I totally agree on bread. Especially the crusty sourdough variety. Man... Bread....
@wineo929 the early part of the cycle really is boring. I can't do anything besides be as healthy as I can. I think it's better than my bsc in the tww though.
@houseofsetters obviously being sad isn't good, but crying is healthy! You're doing your body a service, letting it all out. At least that's my personal belief.
@mokay19 (hugs) to you.
@kellybean1988 I'm so sorry about your friend. I hope you can find some time for peace and quiet for yourself today.

WAYDTGKU: Going to try PreSeed and mucinex this month, the other usual things.
R/R/CS: It's Monday, and I am so exhausted from Easter weekend, cooked for my ENTIRE family. Had a couple of people asking me if we had any "announcements" which I shut down with a terse " trying, thanks!" and a dramatic wave of my wine glass.
GTKY: What one junk food could you not live without? Pizza for me as well! And cheese of any kind. And carbs of all kinds.
Month/cycle: 6/4

WAYDTGKU: Now that AF is gone, RRL tea, CM, OPK(after tomorrow), PNV
R/R/CS: Currently sitting in the lab doing the 3 hour glucose test. The receptionist clearly told the lady taking my blood that this was non-gestational. During taking my first round of blood she proceeds to ask me: do you know what you're having? And I starred at her, and said for what? And she looked at me shocked and said a baby!! And I said I'm not pregnant! And she said then why are you having the test? And I said dead flat, I have PCOS. I could tell she was embarrassed and she did apologize, but then went on to tell me her friend Judy has it "really bad". BITCH WHAT THE FUCK? Hsg tomorrow, so looking forward to those answers.
GTKY: What one junk food could you not live without? Pizza all day every day. And fried rice.
CD: big stupid fat CD1
WAYDTGKU: eod/Ed fw, pn vitamin. Frantically wondering what else I am missing!?! Maybe pressed if I can find it?!
R/Rv/cs: I am so sorry to see all the CD 1's. I'm so pissed to be here (if you hadn't deduced that already lol). I let myself go last month. I felt like it happened! I don't SS because I have every different aspect of every different symptom every month (even in wto haha) but I just thought we got it this month! So glad Easter was this weekend to distract me! I am also trying to focus on my next home improvement project...I have repainted and decorated my family room and downstairs bathroom already! I have to keep busy at all times!
GTKY: What one junk food could you not live without? Pizza. OMG pizza. Yes pizza! I need pizza.....or Oreos.....
