WAYDTGKU: All the sex and lots of 2-3 letter acronyms
R/R/CS: So my fertile signs did start to show up yesterday after I whined about them being missing here. CP and CM are definitely in a good place, but I'm still not turning an OPK. So frustrating. On a non TTC note I thought this spring break would be relaxing but I've ended up doing lots of things everyday. Today I drove an hour to my dads (just got here) so we can now drive separately 30 minutes to Toyota, he can drop his truck off to have a recall fixed, we can drive back to his house, wait around, and then I can bring him back to pick it up. I brought my work bag with me so I can knock some things off if the to do list while I'm here.
GTKY: What is your favorite physical quality about yourself? Conversely, if you had to get some sort of plastic surgery, what would you choose?
I like my nose and my hips. If I could change anything it would be stuff plastic surgery couldn't actually fix like my blotchy face and bags under my eyes. Everything else I don't like can be fixed as I lose more weight.

WAYDTGKU: nothing at the moment
R/R/CS: nothing really happening to rant or rave about. my husbands 3 sisters and special-needs nephew are staying with us a few days so busy. Have this afternoon to myself though so going to bake!
GTKY: What is your favorite physical quality about yourself? Conversely, if you had to get some sort of plastic surgery, what would you choose?
Going to sound conceited but I have a few things. I love my hair and my eye color. My hair does whatever I want (curl or straighten) and is rarely frizzy nor oily. I just really like how bright eye color is. I also love my butt and calves.
I never actually would do it, but if I had to I'd get bigger boobs. Nothing crazy. Maybe just a c. (I'm a small b)
and id remove my double chin.

WAYDTGKU:
R/R/CS: leaving the WAY.. Blank. Can't fill it in on my phone, tired to fighting it. So thanks ladies for looking at my chart yesterday. My temp went up again this morning, about .2 degrees. Still not into my usual post O range. My cm is all gone. Nothing to do but wait and see what happens. And we can't do any sex until the weekend because H was away the last 2 nights and now I'm going away for work.
GTKY: What is your favorite physical quality about yourself? Conversely, if you had to get some sort of plastic surgery, what would you choose?
I love my eyes. They are very blue. When I wear blue or get my makeup just right they look like Windows into my brain.
I'd like to have bigger boobs and a smaller waist.
@sarah0985 what are you going to bake? You've made me want to do some baking this weekend!
CD: 21? See below
WAYDTGKU: the usual, nothing out of the norm. H has a doctor appointment Friday so I hope he gets some answers
R/R/CS: so I've been using the same digital OPK tests from my last cycle. Not getting a smiley this time. The only positive was on a cheapie last week. I googled (ugh) and there were comments about it only showing a smiley if the surge was higher than the one before. Any insight? I know I may not have O'd yet or drank too much water but just wondering if this test kit should have gone in the garbage after last cycle...
GTKY: What is your favorite physical quality about yourself? Conversely, if youhad to get some sort of plastic surgery, what would you choose?
I love my boobs. Love them. I might not do plastic surgery but I do have a tooth that I don't love and I would get that fixed for sure!!!
CD: 7
WAYDTGKU: all things + acupuncture
R/R/CS: not much. Gearing up for FW..go home from business trip today and just trying to maintain this positive relaxed feeling
GTKY: What is your favorite physical quality about yourself? Conversely, if you had to get some sort of plastic surgery, what would you choose?
The one thing I would never change about myself is my face. I think it is my best feature. If I were to get plastic surgery I would get a tummy tuck, arm revision and a breast lift. If I could only pick one it would be the arm revision. No matter how fit I have ever been, my arms are still flappy

@sarah0985 I'm on a low carb diet.....tell me what you're baking, let me live vicariously through you. EDIT: Just saw what you're deciding between. Just let me know when the oven is on, I'll head over LOL.
@SandwichLover Your eyes sound so pretty!! DH has hazel eyes and they turn greenish or bluish depending on what he's wearing too!
@leekat14 I've never used the digital OPK's because I'm much too cheap so I don't have any insight. I find that the regular cheap kinds work pretty good. FX DH's appointment goes well!
@Marley629 I hear you on the arms. That is also something I dislike about myself. Arm flub.

CD: 27
WAYDTGKU: PNV, BBT, CM, RLT, HIO
R/R/CS: DH had is semen analysis this AM! We live an hour and a half away (but I work about 7 minutes away) from the clinic so I drove with it against my chest the entire way to ensure it stayed warm! That was quite the experience lol. I love him so much and am so thankful that I have a good guy. Not one complaint about having to bust one out into a cup at 5:45 in the morning before work. Swoon. The clinic said it would forward the results to the OB tomorrow, and if things were normal I wouldn't get a call. So I'll be calling tomorrow to get the results myself, because I want to know numbers and not just 'good or not good'. There's nothing left to do now but wait until 4/21 for the RE consultation. Also keeping my FX I'll surprise us and maybe possibly actually ovulate this cycle. Here's to hoping for a long shot lol.
GTKY: What is your favorite physical quality about yourself? Conversely, if you had to get some sort of plastic surgery, what would you choose?
I also don't want to sound conceited because I am far from it, but I've always had decent self esteem despite a little chub! I think overall I'm a pretty girl. I love my eyes. My eyelashes go on for days. And I have the perfect cupid bow mouth. However if I ever got plastic surgery (which I wouldn't) I would get butt implants. It's so tiny! It's not flat, just really tiny so my pants never stay up because there's nothing really to hold them up. I'm basically shaped like a tiny upside triangle lol.

WAYDTGKU: bbt pnv opk cm acupuncture HIO
R/R/CS: dipped even further today. I'm hoping for a temp spike tomorrow, but OPKs are negative so who knows, but I'm waking up every night at 2am when DH gets home to HIO so that if I O sometime this week I will have some timing.
*long acupuncture appt summary*
I had a second appt with the acupuncurist yesterday. It started with a discussion on diet which was basically a modified paleo/low glycemic/Mediterranean recommendation. I definitely need to lose quite a bit of weight so I'm going to take as many of his recommendations into practice as I can conceivably stick to. I guess some
of the things actually kind of made sense to me in a way that I haven't personally been able to get enough self control to do myself. For example, he said dairy/milk has so many added hormones that it could be adding extra estrogen to my body and with my long cycles and overweight status, I need to avoid that. Same thing with regular red meat. He told me a lot of promising anecdotes about patients with similar issues and the successes they had modifying diet combined with acupuncture. So right now I feel more determined because I'm paying for the acupuncture plus I'm 9 months in with cycles that are long, with no set length or reliable O date. Something isn't right with my body and hopefully acupuncture and diet changes will help me out before I hit the one year mark.
He also recommended B complex, vitamin D3, and cod liver oil. No herb recommendations yet.
GTKY: What is your favorite physical quality about yourself? Conversely, if you had to get some sort of plastic surgery, what would you choose?
I have pretty large expressive eyes and a decent nose.
After I had baby #2 I would love to get back in shape, and then get a tummy tuck and breast lift. Doubt I would ever get that cuz I'm really try not to be a person who is absorbed on personal appearance.

WAYDTGKU: the usual.
R/R/CS: Bless H's heart. He had an upset stomach yesterday and we missed our EOD schedule, so he woke up extra early to make it happen this morning. Gah I need to O soon!
GTKY: What is your favorite physical quality about yourself? Conversely, if you had to get some sort of plastic surgery, what would you choose?
My hair color. It's a shade of strawberry blonde that just can't be replicated. If I had to have plastic surgery, I'd definitely get a boob job. I'm a small B and would love to be a C. I would never actually do it though! Elective surgeries freak me out.
GTKY: What is your favorite physical quality about yourself? Conversely, if you had to get some sort of plastic surgery, what would you choose? I'm okay with most of my facial features. Unfortunately genetics dictated that I would get the heavy upper body of the women on my maternal side (who all have nice skinny legs but giant bosoms) and the heavy lower body of the women on my paternal side (who all have nice small chests and shoulders but bigger hips, thighs and bottoms). Thanks genetics. Pair that with my passionate love of all things food and there pretty much isn't a part of my body I DO like.

WAYDTGKU: whole30 diet, chiropractic care, starting acupuncture next week.
R/R/CS: I feel a lot better than I did yesterday. Yesterday I cried a lot. I had to come to terms with not having a 2016 baby and moving into cycle 10.
GTKY: I love my butt and my back/shoulders. If I had to get plastic surgery, I'd bump my boobs up to a B cup. They are so small, like I can buy bras in the children's section small. AA cup haha. But it is nice for working out!
CD: 17
WAYDTGKU: same stuff
R/R/CS: so my thermometer I really don't think can be trusted. And people have been asking and i haven't replied sorry!!.... It isn't a mabi its a home remedy I got it on Amazon. I "usually" o the day after I get an opk but I think due to a small temp dip this morning it will call today o day. Hubs and I actually discussed not having sex last night as we were so tired and I always I O day after opk but we hio anyways and I'm glad we did if I didn't o until today! If my temps go up tomorrow and thurs then we'll be at -1, -2, -3. I can't physically do it again today not gonna happen so I hope today is O day haha
GTKY: What is your favorite physical quality about yourself? Conversely, if you had to get some sort of plastic surgery, what would you choose? My legs I like but I hate my stomach, so tummy tuck! Would totally tummy tuck after kids if I could afford it but won't be able to
edited to add chart
CD: 12 (I think I put the calendar date yesterday lol)
WAYDTGKU: same as yesterday
R/R/CS: last night we missed our every other day schedule because I was just too exhausted. My parents came over for dinner which was great, but by the time they left and we got DS in bed it was almost 10... then I realized I hadn't been to the store to get the stuff I needed to make my dishes for our luncheon at work today plus I would still have to be cooking for about 2 hours. DH offered to go to the store but I told him no because I wasnt sure what all I needed, so he basically told me "no, you're not driving, its not safe. you're going on less than 2 hours sleep and you have to get up early tomorrow. I love you, go to bed." lol stupid DH being all sensible and crap so we went to bed and I was too exhausted to relax enough to go to sleep so he rubbed and scratched my back until I passed out
GTKY: What is your favorite physical quality about yourself? Conversely, if you had to get some sort of plastic surgery, what would you choose? I love my eyes, nose and butt lol I would love to have lipo, an arm revision (even at my thinnest, my upper arms have always been big) and maybe a breast lift. Though if I ever lose weight they do tend to lift a bit... I've just always 'pointed' forward/slightly down. I've never been perky and pointing up lol
I'd never actually go through with any of it though. my gall bladder was my first non oral surgery (I was only numbed for that one anyway) and I was terrified. I'll pass on elective. I won't even get my belly button incision fixed where they stitched it with my skin folded. I'm just slowly stretching/massaging that side of my belly button so it relaxes back to where it should be.(before surgery, my belly button looked like an O now it looks like a D..... annoying)

R/R/CS: Holy new-looking app! I'm glad they fixed the ads though!
I'm currently at work just sitting, waiting, wishing for AF to show up! I have a uniform at work and I only have khakis for it so I'm like "please just don't start viciously!....but start soon!" Haha
GTKY: I like my long legs the best. For plastic surgery, I would either get a nose job or a boob job!
CD: 2
WAYDTGKU: Feeling like death, mostly.
R/R/CS: I had CD1 drinks yesterday with the two people who know exactly how nuts I am about TTC (my husband and my best friend) and we bought tickets to a really fun event on April 30th that I wouldn't have been able to attend if I had gotten KU, and then I went home and snuggled my dog a bunch. If I don't have a baby, at least I have awesome humans, critters, and things to do.
GTKY: What is your favorite physical quality about yourself? Conversely, if you had to get some sort of plastic surgery, what would you choose? I secretly think my body is kind of awesome. I wouldn't say that I have an "ideal" body type by any means, but I prefer the way I look to the way some (not all) more slender women look. I am average-sized to curvy (I'm 5'6" and I wear a M/8-10), but I think I have a pretty sweet balance of a very feminine silhouette with some serious muscle tone. I struggled with my weight throughout my childhood and up until my early 20s, but now I run and/or lift heavy weights most days (pay no attention to the last 10 days since I got back from my honeymoon, in which I have done fuck all), so I have worked hard for both the body and the confidence that comes with it. I guess I wish my arms were a little slimmer? But other than that, I am really happy with what I'm working with. Also, I have great hair.

R/R/CS: It's kind of weird how similar my chart this month is to my last:
This month's temps are higher since I'm temping in the V instead of the mouth. Just hoping in 3 or 4 days I see a colossal drop followed by a colossal rise
GTKY: What is your favorite physical quality about yourself? Conversely, if you had to get some sort of plastic surgery, what would you choose? Eyes or butt. I was a little sad recently when I realized due to genetics that the chance of any child OH and I have would probably have brown eyes (I have blue) but he recently pointed out to me that his dad actually has green eyes not brown so I've been secretly like "yesssss there's some chance!" Not that I wouldn't love any child we have unrequitedly regardless of eye color!

GTKY: What is your favorite physical quality about yourself? Conversely, if you had to get some sort of plastic surgery, what would you choose?
I love my nose because it's very garden-gnomey/grandmotherly. In a few decades, I'm going to have a great Mrs. Claus natural cosplay.
I personally wouldn't get plastic surgery, but if I absolutely had to, it would probably be a breast reduction.

If I HAD to get plastic surgery, it would either a boob job (I'm a lifetime member of the Itty Bitty Titty Committee) or liposuction on my stomach.

I'm also not crazy about my teeth. I've got a bit an overbite and my bottom teeth are crowded.

R/R/CS: As if my chart wasn't confusing enough, I slept through my temping alarm this morning, so my temp is two and a half hours later than usual. And I had a huge temp spike, but can I trust it? Who knows. At this point, I'm just hoping that I'll be able to see a true O temp shift on my chart so I can know where I'm at.

WAYDTGKU: OPKs, CM, PNVs, more water, *attempting to* HIO EOD *see rant
R/R/CS: So DH's work schedule has been weird this week due to extra training. He usually works the night shift on rotating days but he has to do training during the day today and a physical test tomorrow morning. I thought this would be good because it gives us more nights to HIO leading up to O (which should happen this weekend ish). Last night we went to dinner and got some things we needed at the store and I said we could go home and have some fun *wink wink*. We settle in, put on a movie, and start getting frisky. 2 effing hours later and he hasn't finished! We've had several separate sessions because he keeps "running into a problem" and I'm doing everything I possibly can! I finally quit and he asks me "are you ok?" Really?!? No I'm not! I'm doing everything already and you can't even participate?! WTF?!? Idk what to do. I'm being very careful not to put extra pressure on him but we can't make a baby if you don't even try! And it really makes me mad that he acts like nothing is wrong last night and this morning...
GTKY: What is your favorite physical quality about yourself? Conversely, if you had to get some sort of plastic surgery, what would you choose?
I like my face (most of the time) and my boobs. I might get my boobs lifted, a tummy tuck, and slim my love handles and thighs.

R/R/CS: we just got back from NYC. Great to be home but always hard to unwind from a fun vacation. I had secuirty all over me because i had forgotten about this "no bottles or liquid" rule (3oz ok). Accidentally brought a bottle of water with me. They were all over me. I'm glad they are doing their job to keep everyone safe but jeez! It was a mistake.
GTKY: What is your favorite physical quality about yourself? Conversely, if you had to get some sort of plastic surgery, what would you choose?
I have great hair and boobs (haha) like really what people get plastic surgery to have. My hair is very long/thick dark brown. Hard to manage but it looks great. I guess plastic on my nose if i had to choose. It's not big but i just dont like it
I definitely understand the feeling. So sorry about moving on to the next month. Take care of yourself and maybe treat yourself to something special. I bought some new bras and pretty panties when I started this cycle.

Kirsten Grace 1/20/17
So I went for my first appointment and he did an ultrasound on me and I think he was concerned about PCOS or endometriosis because of the pain, but he said everything looked good, but something must have made him think I wasn't ovulating because he sent me for a progesterone test on CD21 that month, and that test showed I was anovulatory, at least that month. So he literally didn't hesitate to put me on Femara (it's actually Letrozole, but I've been calling it Femara on here since everyone else seems to).
He never actually mentioned Clomid, but I don't actually hear of it that much around here (Ontario). But I don't have PCOS so maybe it made more sense to just have the Letrozole trigger ovulation? I'm not actually sure to be honest. But he's super no-nonsense and just seems to be doing what needs to be done and I like that. I'll find out more today about those follicles I guess.
Hope that helps a little!

@SandwichLover FX that temp keeps going up! It stinks being in limbo unsure of what's happening.
@leekat14 I've been having trouble with my advanced digis as well. It gave me a false positive early on and now negatives (I'm pretty sure because it compares and I'm obviously lower than my false positive) but it's been stressful! FX you get some answers. I switched over to cheapies and haven't turned a positive there either.
@mrsdaddario Your DH sounds like a great guy! I'm really pulling for you to O on your own this month!!
@Megzb510 2 am BD sessions, that's a lot of dedication! FX it pays off and you Have good timing!
@houseofsetters Aw that was sweet of your DH! Fx for O soon!
@MelissaM090 Good luck today!! I hope you see some good follie growth! Also way to go with the classes. I need to get motivated to start going back to the gym. Maybe some of your motivation will rub off on me
@FrancesGrace630 Sorry to hear about your rough TTC day yesterday. I'm glad you're feeling better today.
@1017Shannon FX O is today so your last baby dance gets you that -1 timing!
@ladystinson Aw, DH! I think today is appreciate DH day on here. Your DHs have all been so darn cute!
@mokay19 I'm so glad they actually listened to our complaining and fixes that! Those ads were terrible.
@MonaLisaRalphio First of all, kudos on that name! Second of all, yay for being able to be so positive and plan things to make you feel good about the upcoming month!
@Steelerfan3878 Sorry O is being illusion this month. It stinks especially when you got your hopes up and had some good signs already. Hopefully it happens soon!
@canavara That actually is a crazy similar pattern in your chart!
@TheJerilu Yay for your partner being awesome!
@thefarmerswife0411 First of all, a wine tasting sounds fantastic! Glad you had fun! Second of all go you for starting to work out last week! You're the second person in hoping to take some motivation from so I can get my sh*t together!
@gonetothesea FX O is on the way!
@sammajane19 FX for growing follies!
@Lecool I feel like when you temp later, it's normally supposed to be lower, not higher, because of more sleep! But in reality for me it usually ends up being opposite. But not enough of a difference for a huge spike. So FX that temp spike is a legit one and it keeps climbing!
@becbec28 Sorry to hear about the unsuccessful BD sessions. I hope your DH works through it soon!
@teamginger13 FX for a Sunday IUI!
@KarliQ88 That's crazy how all of that happened for a bottle of water! But I agree at least they're doing their job to keep you safe.

WAYDTGKU: All the things
R/R/CS: Tried to talk to the H yesterday about our long-term plan. We decided to try an IUI for sure this summer, and every 6 months or so if it doesn't work we will try another. We decided to draw the line at IUIs until all debt is paid off. At that time we will pursue adoption and IVF concurrently. It stinks knowing we are so far from our goal of having babies (IUIs probably won't work we are told), but it is certainly good incentive to work hard on paying all our school loans down.
GTKY: What is your favorite physical quality about yourself? Conversely, if you had to get some sort of plastic surgery, what would you choose? I really like my eyes, they are just brown, but they are pretty large and I have super long, thick eyelashes. If I had to get plastic... hmm. Well I have this huge mole that I am super self conscious about. It's on the back of my neck, so my hair hides it, but I hate it.
Diagnoses: RPL, Endometriosis, MFI (count, morph, DNI, DNAS, multiple bilateral subclinical varicoceles), low progesterone

WAYDTGKU: HIO, OPKs, temping, the works
R/R/CS: my chart looks crazy lol. It's my first month temping, and I'm 100% sure I'm doing it wrong. Oh well.
GTKY: What is your favorite physical quality about yourself? Conversely, if you had to get some sort of plastic surgery, what would you choose? My eyes and legs! I'm tall and have nice legs lol. If I had to get plastic surgery...hmm a mommy makeover postpartum maybe lol. Ya'll would see me on Dr. Miami's snapchat
<b>CD</b>: 7
<b>WAYDTGKU</b>: Almost FW... PNVs, Zinc, Calcium, DHA, OPK's soon, Mucinex soon, maybe a little Preseed
<b>R/R/CS</b>: Thanks for the support, everyone. I haven't heard yet any news and everyone lives down the shore, so it's kind of nerve-wracking not knowing, and having to probably wait till the weekend again to get down there... Hoping to hear some kind of news today. UPDATE: Grandma is going to be transferred to a different hospital tomorrow morning and they are planning to put a stent in tomorrow afternoon unless something changes. The doctors believe they got all of my SiL's BiL's brain tumor out, but it is cancer, so they will have to do more tests to determine the next course of action. He's only 45!
<b>GTKY</b>: I know this is terrible to say, but I think I'm really struggling with my self-esteem right now. Not even in a physical way, even though I'm trying to lose a few pounds. But like, I catch myself thinking in my head that I hate myself. WTF is That??? DH loves my hair, and it's beautiful, but it's also very long and straight and hard to do much with it, IMHO. I have a great back/shoulders and ripped arms when my BF is low enough to see the definition. Otherwise they just look big! lol I would maybe get a boob job if I had to, especially since when my weight is down too, my boobs go away. I'm like a 34-36 A-B, but I have such thick thighs, broad shoulders etc. so sometimes I feel like a larger chest would balance out my proportions better.

WAYDTGKU: the things
R/R/CS: I'm still thinking I ovulated Monday but had a weird temp this morning. I woke up at 330 and my temp was high (post ovulation high) but I temp at 545, which wouldn't give me enough continuous sleep - so I went back to sleep and temped at the usual time and it was back down to my pre O temp range. I'm keeping the prettier temp at the odd time. It makes me feel better
GTKY: What is your favorite physical quality about yourself? Conversely, if you had to get some sort of plastic surgery, what would you choose?
I like my eyes and overall skin color. My eyes have a nice shape with deep eyelids and are lightish blue with quite a bit of gold - but with the right colors, I can look really blue, greenish-teal, or gray. I like the versatility. Skin wise, I'm super super pale, and I've worked hard to avoid sun damage. I'm a sunscreen queen

Chart!
@Dilynne I think you're asking how FF can predict future fertile window when you haven't yet O'ed this cycle yet? This window will change on FF for you, accordingly when you get AF. Right now it's probably just guessing when AF will start, and then in turn guessing off of that cycle, when your FW will be next cycle. Since you don't have a lot of data to go off of yet, it can only predict. That's my guess! Not professional lol.
@leekat14 I tried the CBDA for one cycle and hated them, because they were so confusing. Sorry I don't have more advice!
@mrsdaddario The visual of you driving clutching a "sample" to chest is pretty funny. But I'm glad that it all worked out and you and your DH were able to get the sample in! FX for good results.
@Megzb510 So glad you got some good recommendations and action items from your acupuncturist!
@MelissaM090 Have a nice and relaxing time at your massage/acupuncture appointment!
@FrancesGrace630 So sorry about CD1&2. I had a really hard time at the start of this cycle when I realized that I would be missing 2016 as well. Big hugs to you.
@Steelerfan3878 That's so cool that you raise butterflies. So interesting! I always wish I knew you guys in real life because I want to see them! haha
@TheJerilu haha Mrs. Claus natural cosplay! That's hilarious.
@sammajane19 FX for nice follies!
@becbec28 Are we the same person? Almost the same situation happened with my H last night. Didn't mention on my post because I'm trying not to dwell on it too much because I was upset. Sorry you're going through that. Hopefully he gets his stuff together soon so you guys can stay on schedule.
