Update: HSG was "perfect" according to RE. I'm going in with DH after his SA next week to schedule an appointment for a "Plan of Care," so we are most likely out this cycle.
A big shout-out to the nurse at my appointment. She was so caring and wonderful. She walked me through it and kept reminding me to breathe throughout.
I'm so relieved that it was normal. Now we can really move forward.
R/R/CS: On my last day of progesterone. So, we'll see how it goes and hopefully I get to actually have 'normal' cycles again. woohoo!
GTKY: What has been the happiest day of your life thus far? And why? Mmmmm. I guess I'd say meeting my DH. I've been through a lot before meeting him and after I met him and damned if he's stuck with me. lol I don't know why.....but man I'm glad he has. It's been rough sometimes and we get into some hellacious fights, but we will make it through.

@lisswastaken I use Wondfos, but I test in the morning (around 5 - I wake up at 3:30 for work) and early evening (probably around 5).
@DoctorDonna I've done quite a few Whole30s, and did a Whole90 once too. I'd be interested in joining you for May W30! Also - YAY for your test results!
@mrsdaddario Sorry about CD1 But glad you can start treatment! LOVE your wedding photo!
WAYDTGKU: Once AF leaves, all the sex, healthy habits, PNVs
R/R/CS: Still panicking that my infertility issues are going to come back even though they seemed to have sorted themselves out a few years ago. TTC again is going to be stressful for me I think.
GTKY: What has been the happiest day of your life thus far? And why? That is very hard to answer. I may need to get back to you on that....my happiest days in RECENT months was when I found out that yes, hubby was indeed interested in TTC again
@DoctorDonna yay!!! So happy to hear the test went well and you had an amazing nurse!!!

@beary67 - she was amazing! Being a nurse is one of the most thankless jobs. I want to buy all of them donuts or something. They've all been amazing so far. Great group of ladies!
R/R/CS: I'm happy to see my body normalizing since my loss but also obviously sad about loss. I went back to when I 1st started TTC and found a trend with my LP that it is 10 days long, but it has been since 06/2013. I have a doctor apt at the end of May but was wondering if any of you ladies know much about this. I know it is on the shorter side but since it has always been 10 days should it be looked into more? I have never temped this is based on opk's and I use the app P Tracker.
GTKY: What has been the happiest day of your life thus far? And why? I want to say the day my daughter was born but it was a very mixed emotions day. I had some complications after birth that were kind of scary but everything turned out fine. I'd say the 2 times I got a BFP. Those were truly joyous days and thinking back to them it makes me happy, even though I ended badly.
WAYDTGKU: Clomid, BD EOD for THIRTY DAYS IN A FREAKIN ROW, cm, temping, OPK
R/R/CS: So I went on vacation (waiting to go home at the airport now) which was fabulous (missed you ladies!!), and didn't take my thermometer on purpose because of the time changes and for a little break, and have felt NO signs of O at all. I will temp again when we get home to see where I'm at. I'll also be calling the doctor first thing Monday to update them and see if we can do something different. First cycle on Clomid and latest O ever, or maybe no O at all. Not cool. Clomid sucks for me.
GTKY: What has been the happiest day of your life thus far? And why? I loved our wedding day, but I'm with a PP who said engagament day. Wedding was a blast, but I wanted everything to be so perfect that it was pretty stressful at times before the ceremony. Engagement day was just about the two of us, and then we got to go around telling our family about it!

We had to get it in because who knows when I'll O and he's here this morning, is not guaranteed home until tomorrow night, and then is guaranteed gone for the next three days so it had to happen but neither one of us was really feeling it at all.

GTKY: What has been the happiest day of your life thus far? And why? You know, this was a really good question for me today because it makes me reflect on how many truly wonderful moments I've had. From the day my husband landed his dream job, to sitting out on the deck on a beautiful night with our dog, to incredible vacation days, to the day H proposed, to summer days at my grandma's house, there are really far too many to pick just one standout day.

@lisswastaken I use the CBADs also so for those, I do as those instructions say and use FMU. I also have Wondfos and I'll use those other times during the day if I feel like O is close. If I use those, I'll do as others mentioned and try to back off the liquids and hold it for a while. The only reason I wait until I feel like O is close is because testing is a PIA. @DoctorDonna Excited to hear that things went well, that you had an awesome nurse, and a plan for moving forward! @mrsdaddario Yay for CD1 and being able to set the plan in motion! @Zoey1019 Glad to hear that you're moving past the boring part of the cycle! @MonaLisaRalphio Hooray for O day! @linzrunz FX for later than expected O! @LadyBrettAshley23 That gif is excellent.

It's such a perfect illustration that sometimes all of the wedding stuff is so minor compared to a surprise great day with your favorite people. @crazypt2285 It seems like my LP is kind of short, too, so I'm interested in all of the answers as well. @virginiaham Happy to hear that H is home and you're having a great day!

R/R/CS: I guess I got really good at finding the indent line last month out of desperation, so I'll have to use digital from now on to save myself the heartbreak. It's only CD1 today and I'm beyond ready for AF to go away so I can stop sulking and move into my optimistic "this is our month!" phase I go through every month. Right now I'm just tired, cranky, and achy. We're going to dinner tonight for DH's birthday with his family and my mom so that should at least take my mind off things and be a little fun.
GTKY: What has been the happiest day of your life thus far? And why?
I automatically want to say my wedding day but if I'm being honest, the day after was even better because I knew I was done planning the wedding and could relax. I was stressed and anxious the whole day even though it was a beautiful and perfect day. The best day I can think of is a little silly. Years ago before DH and I lived together, we had Disneyland passes and went regularly just to hang out. One day is was super rainy (I LOVE the rain) and we walked around the empty park and got root beer floats at our favorite spot and went on the Toy Story ride over and over and had a blast because we are both super competitive with each other. We left when it really started coming down because we didn't have an umbrella or anything but by the time we made it to the parking lot, we were both soaked completely through and it was already night. We started messing around and chasing each other through the empty lot and it turned into a huge water fight in the rain. We would splash through the puddles and slap water at each other. It lasted about a half hour. It was a simple thing really but both me and DH think back to that day when we think about why we love each other so much. We were already a few years into dating but something about that night was really special and really silly and we just fell deeper in love than we knew possible. I like to think back to that time when I'm having a rough day. It's always the first thing that pops in my mind when I think about the happiest I've ever been.
@DoctorDonna I had
my fingers crossed for you today. Glad everything looked "perfect"!
That's great. What have you been reading up on? I've been thinking of doing
Whole30 but honestly wouldn't even know where to start. Maybe we can do it
together!!! I need some motivation... Also it' looks like @stardust317 is in
too! And Steelerfan78!
@Mrsdaddario Yay for
CD 1!!!!!!!! If I could fast forward three weeks to be doing this with you I
would! So excited for you to get stuff going. My doctor is starting me at 2
2.5mg tabs once a day for 5 days (CD 3-7) so looks like our experience may be a
bit different but definitely along the same lines! Also I'm only getting
bloodwork (and only progesterone) on CD 22, no labs on CD 3 (or in your case
4?). What are they testing then? I know I'm supposed to take a pregnancy test
before starting letrozole but my Dr said I can just use a wandfo since the
ultrasound showed that I was definitely not pregnant, and am now back on birth
control.
@khbear Sorry about
CD 1! Hope your little vacay keeps your mind off it
@Dilynne Long cycles
suck very much. All I can recommend is planning for what you want to do next
cycle. Have you just come off HBC? If so, did you have regular cycles before
going onto birth control? Have your been testing at all? Sorry if you've already
been answering these same questions!
@juliebeannn Oh no,
that sucks you had to cancel your trip. Fx your back heals up soon and you can
still have a successful FW!
@teamginger13 Ugh
sorry you are back. Fx your RE gets back to you soon and comes up with
something!
@meilay What made
you go with the CBAD? Did you have any success with regular OPKs?
@mrstuessy Can you
come organize my house next! I have no motivation to! Lol.
@lecool Glad you got
a few days off of the TTC obsession! Woot join the Whole30 May 1st train!
WAYDTGKU: PNV. HBC x3 weeks, then Letrozole,
then HIO, then U/S, then progesterone then we will see.
R/R/CS: Started back on HBC today. Feels
so weird and counter productive but I guess it's purpose is no different than
the provera a lot of you get! The next three weeks are going to draaaaag by.
But as I said yesterday, I've just happy to have something to look forward too.
GTKY: I think it would be easy to say the day I
got married. I had a great wedding and everything went very smoothly. It was
not without it stresses though. Can't think of anything else that stands out
though since I've had a lot of great experiences in my life.
R/R/CS: I got nothing today. When I charted before my IUD, I always Od on CD 10 so I've been waiting for the temp spike but I haven't had one. CP is pretty high but stil fairly firm. Some minimal , but I'm having to take allergy meds right now. I'm also crabby.
GTKY: What has been the happiest day of your life thus far? And why? The days each of my girls were born were definitely the ones I hold most near and dear to my heart.
@aammyy33 I bought the CBADs literally the day after DH said he was ready to ttc out of sheer excitement. I didn't know anything about OPKs and just picked what seemed best in the store. I haven't tried wondfo OPKs yet and I'm trying to decide if I want to do anything other than BD for a couple cycles. If I do decide to continue with OPKs, I won't be continuing with the CBADs. I just can't really justify the cost right now, even as badly as I want to be KTFU.
WAYDTGKU: Charting CM, CP, BBT and BD when the feeling arises (which is often...so far just the thought of the chance of it getting me pregnant is a turn on)
R/R/CS: I don't produce a lot of CM all cycle, so I'm trying to drink extra water to stay hydrated, and I've cut back on caffeine and alcohol. I have to check my cervix to check my CM, and even then sometimes I'm like, "does this look watery, or kind of creamy?" Ugh.
GTKY: What has been the happiest day of your life thus far? And why? This is a hard one! There have been many days that are happy, and it's hard to pick the happiest. My wedding day was happy, but it's hard to say if it's been the happiest. DH and I have been together since 2005, married since 2007, and we've moved across the country, gone on several vacations, and it's hard to say when has really been the happiest. CD 1 this month was a super happy one, since we both finally agreed that we would begin trying I began bleeding and my first thought was, "WOO here we go!"
Re: WTO Friday
HSG was "perfect" according to RE. I'm going in with DH after his SA next week to schedule an appointment for a "Plan of Care," so we are most likely out this cycle.

I know I'm supposed to take a pregnancy test before starting letrozole but my Dr said I can just use a wandfo since the ultrasound showed that I was definitely not pregnant, and am now back on birth control.
@Steelerfan78, @LadyBrettAshley23 Your gifs made me LOL!
@MonaLisaRaphio Yay for O day!
@khbear Sorry about CD 1! Hope your little vacay keeps your mind off it
@Dilynne Long cycles suck very much. All I can recommend is planning for what you want to do next cycle. Have you just come off HBC? If so, did you have regular cycles before going onto birth control? Have your been testing at all? Sorry if you've already been answering these same questions!
@juliebeannn Oh no, that sucks you had to cancel your trip. Fx your back heals up soon and you can still have a successful FW!
@teamginger13 Ugh sorry you are back. Fx your RE gets back to you soon and comes up with something!
@meilay What made you go with the CBAD? Did you have any success with regular OPKs?
@mrstuessy Can you come organize my house next! I have no motivation to! Lol.
@lecool Glad you got a few days off of the TTC obsession! Woot join the Whole30 May 1st train!
@Mlight28 That is a marathon of BD! Wowza!
@virgianiaham Glad your DH is home!
Month/cycle: 4/1
CD: 124
WAYDTGKU: PNV. HBC x3 weeks, then Letrozole, then HIO, then U/S, then progesterone then we will see.
R/R/CS: Started back on HBC today. Feels so weird and counter productive but I guess it's purpose is no different than the provera a lot of you get! The next three weeks are going to draaaaag by. But as I said yesterday, I've just happy to have something to look forward too.
GTKY: I think it would be easy to say the day I got married. I had a great wedding and everything went very smoothly. It was not without it stresses though. Can't think of anything else that stands out though since I've had a lot of great experiences in my life.

WAYDTGKU: PNV+, BBT, sex
R/R/CS: I got nothing today. When I charted before my IUD, I always Od on CD 10 so I've been waiting for the temp spike but I haven't had one. CP is pretty high but stil fairly firm. Some minimal , but I'm having to take allergy meds right now. I'm also crabby.
GTKY: What has been the happiest day of your life thus far? And why?
The days each of my girls were born were definitely the ones I hold most near and dear to my heart.
CD: 9
WAYDTGKU: Charting CM, CP, BBT and BD when the feeling arises (which is often...so far just the thought of the chance of it getting me pregnant is a turn on)
R/R/CS: I don't produce a lot of CM all cycle, so I'm trying to drink extra water to stay hydrated, and I've cut back on caffeine and alcohol. I have to check my cervix to check my CM, and even then sometimes I'm like, "does this look watery, or kind of creamy?" Ugh.
GTKY: What has been the happiest day of your life thus far? And why?
This is a hard one! There have been many days that are happy, and it's hard to pick the happiest. My wedding day was happy, but it's hard to say if it's been the happiest. DH and I have been together since 2005, married since 2007, and we've moved across the country, gone on several vacations, and it's hard to say when has really been the happiest. CD 1 this month was a super happy one, since we both finally agreed that we would begin trying
