WTO Tuesday

mrsdee15 · April 2016

Month/cycle: 5

CD: 11

WAYDTGKU: I've used this gif before but I love it so...

R/R/CS: Nothing yet.

GTKY: What is your favorite discontinued product? In a weird way I really mis Lancôme Juicy Tubes. I heard a rumor they're coming back though. As a kid I was fascinated for the 30 seconds Crystal Clear Pepsi was on the market. Don't know why.

linzrunz · April 2016

Month/cycle: 2/2

CD: More than 10 and less than 20. I forget. Maybe 15?

WAYDTGKU: NOTHING! DH is gone until Friday. My temp spiked this morning so I'm hoping it's because I slept like crap. Again. Because if this is O time... grr. 1) You're early. 2) Our timing would look as blank as the BFN I'd be sure to get.

R/R/CS: So....I'm grumpy...if you couldn't tell. All I wanted to do was talk to DH last night and he ignored me. Said service was bad. Too bad the iMessage stats ratted you out. Not only were they delivered right away, I can tell that you read them! Also, this morning I got to listen to my sister go on about how her husband wants to get a vasectomy because he doesn't want to "accidently get pregnant again", but she would totally be ok with it. They had #4 in October and she makes sure everyone knows he was an "unexpected surprise". She doesn't know I'm TTC, and normally I don't get so down when she talks about that stuff, but today is just a rough day.

GTKY: What is your favorite discontinued product? I'm with whoever said cereal is life. @Lecool maybe? I'm too lazy to scroll up... lol I bought three boxes of French Toast Crunch when it came back and texted a picture to my siblings to make them jealous. Cereal is a perfectly acceptable meal at any time of the day. I think there was an Oreo cereal at one point that I kinda miss, too.

thefarmerswife0411 · April 2016

@AliciaGoose; OMG I forgot bout those 3D things, LMAO so good! @Dilynne; Caeser Salad Chips eh? @ladystinson; I totally remember those shampoos!!!!!!
ETA: spacing >.<

KristoKekerooni · April 2016

Month/cycle: 20/20

CD: 5

WAYDTGKU: All of it.

R/R/CS: My period is over, so now just waiting to O. I forgot to temp this am. Ooops. 99% of me doesn't want to temp or OPK because I am so so regular, but as soon as I stop something weird will happen and I will hate myself. Boo and I are both sick, so hoping we are well enough to HIO when my fertile week gets here.

GTKY: What is your favorite discontinued product?
Ahhhh so many good things!
For food, because I had an unhealthy childhood that was filled with yummy:
French Toast crunch, Oreo Os, Black Cherry Vanilla Coke, Abazabbas, Butterfinger BBs, Dunkaroos, Guacamole Doritos, Rice Krispie treat cereal

@ladystinson I LOVE those. They smell so good. They actually sell them at Vons and sometimes even dollar general! They have a rose one that is to die for. I can smell it all day and when my husband smells it he instantly... well. We immediately HIO.

leekat14 · April 2016

Month/cycle: 4/3

CD: 20

WAYDTGKU: at this point pnv, temping, opk

R/R/CS: ugh another failed attempt last night. H has a doctor appointment Friday so I hope he gets the answers he is looking for. Chart shows no indication of O. Booo

GTKY: What is your favorite discontinued product?
I can't think of one at the moment!

ladystinson · April 2016

@emmaleighbug what are you doing to get knocked up so you got it. and welcome!

and only because it took me forever rant/rave/chart stalk (it is chart stalk.... right? lol)

Ah...the KU was throwing me. Thank you :-)

sammajane19 · April 2016

Month/cycle: 6/4

CD: 16

WAYDTGKU: Letrozole + Ovidrel, Metformin, HIO

R/R/CS: I had my ultrasound today. The good news is, my lining looks really good, the bad news is, none of my follies are big enough yet to be triggered. I'm only measuring at 10 and 12 mms and he said they need to be at least 18. So I go back in on Friday to be sure they're growing. Fingers crossed there's good progress made by Friday!

GTKY: What is your favorite discontinued product? Hmm I don't have an answer to this one.

mrsdaddario · April 2016

@sammajane19 Keeping my Fx for those follies to blossom!

MelissaM090 · April 2016

@sammajane19 Looks like we're about the same... mine were 11mm and 13mm yesterday and I have to go back in tomorrow.

LittleChick2 · April 2016

Month/cycle: 1/1

CD: 1

WAYDTGKU: BBT, OPK, PNV+DHA, CM, Pre-seed

R/R/CS: First real period after being on HBC for the last 13 years... can't say I'm a fan of how I have cramps and more than a light flow! I've been lurking for months so I'm excited to finally be actively TTC and participating on the boards

GTKY: What is your favorite discontinued product? Peach smints, I totally forgot about them until I got some Josie Maran body butter that smells exactly like them, it smells soooo good. Cinnamon Nature Valley granola bars, they were the best!

virginiaham · April 2016

Month/cycle: 8/7 (1st cycle TTCAL)

CD: 13

WAYDTGKU: just waiting to hear back on my labs

R/R/CS: ***TW loss mentioned** I'm still waiting to hear back on my hcg from yesterday and my H is leaving on Sunday for 2 weeks (RIGHT before when I should be O'ing either on time or late). I'm not feeling very hopeful about our timing this month, and for the first time since my miscarriage I'm ok with missing out on this cycle.

GTKY: What is your favorite discontinued product? It's a dental pick/flosser that simultaneously has a body of the right size & firmness, & also has floss that doesn't shred or stretch when I'm flossing.

[Deleted User] · April 2016

Month/cycle: 1/1

CD: 3

WAYDTGKU: Just waiting out AF.

R/R/CS: Not much here - just ready for my period to quit so I can get to the "trying" part of this whole TTC thing.

GTKY: What is your favorite discontinued product? Aussie Licorice used to carry this really good chocolate covered licorice bites that were insanely good. I haven't seen them in years

Megs7911 · April 2016

Month/cycle: 2/2

CD: 8

WAYDTGKU: pnv, dha, eod until fw then ed, opk and temping

R/R/CS: EWCM already on CD 8, really? I hope I don't o this early my timing will suck.

GTKY: What is your favorite discontinued product? I also really loved the herbal essences products! My hair always smelled so good, and it lasted for days! Their new shampoo and conditioner now doesn't seem to smell and good or last as long. The combo of the shampoo, conditioner and the spray gel was the winner of middle school. yay for crunchy hair in the 90's.

sammajane19 · April 2016

@MelissaM090 yea, cycle buddies! though i'm already starting to stress about taking all of these doctor appointments while I'm at work....unfortunately my RE's office is the opposite of flexible and can only meet for a certain number of hours during the work day. my boss is pretty laid back, but I'm worried he'll start to grow suspicious or start asking questions. i don't think it'll come to that, but still. i work on a team and people question!

felix08 · April 2016

@megzb510 Dunkaroos are discontinued!? But they're so delicious (but clearly not delicious enough for me to purchase since I had no idea they were no longer available)!

@beary67 I am always super impressed by people who wake up early to go to the gym. I am currently dreading the thought of forcing myself to work out tonight when I get home.

@lecool how fun to book a spontaneous trip!! And perfect timing in your cycle to hopefully celebrate (or at the very least, a great place to commiserate)!

@thefarmerswife0411 Good luck with your final!

@melissam090 I also only use my favorite perfumes on special occasions becuase I am terrified that they will be discontinued! Do you know if your B&B scent was recycled under a different name? I recently learned that they do this with many of their scents.

@businesswife Hoping for good health for everyone in your family!

@mlight28 ugh, sorry about your cycle. Hopefully you end up Oing anyway!

@pepperat enjoy Sedona!! We went there a few years ago and it's beautiful (and yes, very hot--we were there in July, ugh). Try Elote Cafe if you get a chance!

@paisley81515 I'm glad you are getting out of that apartment since management is so awful!

@emmaleighbug Welcome! You are right about the WAYDTGKU acronym. :-) So sorry to hear about your loss (and just as an FYI, typically we like to tag posts containing references to a previous loss with a "trigger warning" as it can be upsetting to other woman). You came to the right place to vent about your feelings--many of us are in the exact same boat full of frustration, anger, sadness, etc. every month!

Month/cycle: 8/8

CD:10

WAYDTGKU: Ugh, I am being such a slacker this cycle.

R/R/CS: I totally forgot to temp this morning which means, out of my 10 cycle days so far, I have exactly one temp to show for it, ha. I usually O around CD18, so I should be able to get enough data to confirm it, but we are going to St. Louis this weekend and I'm thinking about not worrying about temping this cycle. It may be good to take a break from the obsession, anyway (though I do think I will be mad at myself for not following through when I'm wondering if I O'd). We'll see if I remember tomorrow and go from there.

GTKY: What is your favorite discontinued product? So there used to be a cheeseburger at Burger King called the Rodeo Burger that hasn't been on the menu in years. It had onion rings, cheese, and BBQ sauce and it was so delicious. I suppose you could still ask them to make it since all of those ingredients are available, ha. @paisley81515's GTKY response also reminded me that the plates we registered for at Crate & Barrel are now discontinued which is disappointing because we are sure to break some (it's a miracle we've made it 10 months without doing so).

SandwichLover · April 2016

I've had some responses typed up forever and only getting to press send now!

MonaLisaRalphio · April 2016

Hiiiiiiii buddies... Question in R/R/CS!

Month/cycle: 6/5

CD: 1?

WAYDTGKU: AF just rolled in about 30 seconds ago, so no fun for me for a few days.

R/R/CS: I usually get my period late in the evening on 12DPO, so I call 13DPO my CD1. Last night (12DPO) I had exactly one light pink spot before bed, and then all day today I was looking closely to see when AF would arrive. I had a tiny dot of brown first thing this morning and went back and forth between nothing and very light pink CM all day today. It's now nearly 6pm and AF has finally showed (shown?). I know the rule of thumb is that after 3pm-ish you call the next day CD1, but I was wondering if the spotting would change that at all. My temp drop happened today, right on schedule for CD1.

GTKY: What is your favorite discontinued product? Not discontinued, but Neutrogena makes an anti-wrinkle anti-acne face wash that's almost impossible to find, and I swore by that for years. I've moved on to Simple brand, which works fine.

Marley629 · April 2016

Month/cycle: 5

CD: 6

WAYDTGKU: pnv's temping opks + acupuncture + healthier living

R/R/CS: I'm on day 2 of my work retreat. It's such a beautiful tranquil place. I went for a hike up a mountain and just had a relaxing warm oatmeal bath uninterrupted!! AMAZING. Gearing up for FW and I have my 2nd acupuncture appt Friday morning before work. Looking forward to that. Just happier overall so no ranting. Just raves today

GTKY: What is your favorite discontinued product?

Umm I love me some ECTO KOOLER. Am I aging myself here? Lol. I heard it was making a comeback. I hope not. Also, I know this is unhealthy but I miss the original Stacker 2's with the ephedra. Man those worked

Megzb510 · April 2016

@Marley629 - I have my second acupuncture appt tonight. Supposedly they are supposed to go over the nutrition and herbs portion. Has your acupuncurist recommended any herbs yet? Will you be taking them? I just hope they give me more info about what ones they recommend so I can do further research. Random herbs kind of make nervous.

She mentioned herbs that can help with pms symptoms and menstrual cycle and said that we can talk about it more next time. I'm not too keen on taking random herbs either so I'm interested in more what they are about. Keep me posted what yours says tonight

in regards to diet, mine suggested a modified paleo for me - limit dairy and gluten and up my intake of vegetables. I'm trying. Dairy is such a big part of my diet but if it will help to limit it, I'm going to try my best. If anyone else has any insight on the chinese herbs, please share

houseofsetters · April 2016

@mrsdaddario FX super hard for the SA tomorrow!! I know it's nerve-wracking, but hopefully it will be as easy as possible for him! As awkward as my H said it was, he was out of there pretty quickly, so it couldn't have been too bad! I'm going to an RE at a teaching/research hospital and one of her research interests is acupuncture and IVF, which I thought was interesting. Very cool that your RE's office seems to be utilizing all kinds of medicine.

@AliciaGoose When I first started fostering, it was a little harder to let go, these days I'm like "see ya!". It's fun, and rewarding, but a total pain in the ass. If it weren't for their cute sad little faces, I would probably say no a lot more often!

@Mlight28 So sorry this cycle isn't going the way you wanted it to. So frustrating! FX so super hard that O happens soon and you get amazing timing. TTTC suuuuuucks.

@ladystinson In high school I was totally was obsessed with those Herbal Essences scents too!!

@mrsdee15 Gah, I loved the Lancome juicy tubes too! I hope they do come back!

@Megs7911 EWCM started for me on CD8 this cycle too...although I'm on CD18 now with no O, so it obviously didn't mean much for me!

@SandwichLover We have gotten to a point now (especially with TTC) that we only take dogs to get them out of the shelter, through their spay/neuter and initial vetting and do a behavior assessment, and then we send them to a longer term foster home! This guys has already out-stayed his welcome, ha!

@MonaLisaRalphio First of all, yeeesssss to your new SN.

As for your question...I started around 5pm this cycle and counted it as CD1. Now I'm thinking maybe I shouldn't have? I hope you get a good answer! ETA: So sorry for CD1! Hope you get to treat yo self!

Megs7911 · April 2016

@Marley629 omg! Ecto cooler!! I loved that stuff as a kid. In college I used to drink Midori sours, and every time I ordered one that was what my (now) husband called them. So good!

kiwieloping · April 2016

Month/cycle: 4/5

CD: 11

WAYDTGKU: staying positive, being healthy, lots of well timed sex

R/R/CS: I got nothing today. I'm keeping it low stress and trying to not obsess over TTC. I want this so bad...like we all do...it's easy to let it consume every thought!

GTKY: What is your favorite discontinued product? I couldn't think of anything but Clearly Canadian used to great @megzb510 ! I totally forgot about it but I used to drink it everyday when I was like 12 / 13!

Lecool · April 2016

@BusinessWife Wow, that's a lot going on at once. Thinking of you! FX everything goes well.

@Mlight28 I'm sorry. That's so frustrating. FX for your O soon. Hugs!

@linzrunz Cereal is life

@LittleChick2 @emmaleighbug Hi & welcome!

@MonaLisaRalphio I'd count today as CD1, not last night's spotting. And really, really sorry to see you here girl.

MonaLisaRalphio · April 2016

@houseofsetters @Lecool thanks, loves. I'm not so happy to be here, either, but at least there's beer in WTO.

...somebody brought beer, right?

Lecool · April 2016

@MonaLisaRalphio Plenty of drinks to go around in WTO. I like to think of WTO as pretty much just drinking and humping.

***question***

I'm using a digital OPK, I only went through 9 or 10 tests last time and got a smiley. I've been using the rest of the tests with the same monitor as before. Is that bad? Should I have bought a new one? So far they are all negatives except the one day i used a cheap one. My temps aren't a good reference because temp orally and my schedule has been messed up. But I've go nothing to confirm otherwise.

Thanks for any insight!

@Lecool That cereal gif just made my day!

TheJerilu · April 2016

@SandwichLover

@TheJerilu That's so sweet (and a good idea) to leave programs on for the dog! I might steal that idea, maybe it will help our dog be less barky.

Steal away! This is our go-to channel, since it lets you designate the time you need the music/sounds: https://www.youtube.com/user/relaxmydog
