    WAYDTGKU: nothing 

    R/R/CS: after several days of uncertainty, I'm moving back here because after more negative tests I'm 90% sure I had a chemical, with how light my bleed was I may talk to my dr about checking my uterine lining, but I could be thinking into it too much. 
    Thinking I happened to have had hormone still present a couple days after the bleed and that I happened to catch the last of it with enough to turn a test one last time. I hoping that is the case. Still confused just trying to make sense of everything.

    GTKY: What is one thing you're most proud of?

    DS, plain and simply, he's a happy, healthy and intelligent 2.5yr old, I did that, I'm proud of him
    and I'm proud of me for really stepping up and embracing motherhood even when I wasn't sure I could. (I was 18 when I had him)

    R/R/CS: today is DS party. Drove myself crazy yesterday getting ready. I tried to make Mickey Mouse cupcakes I'm not entirely confident they look like Mickey Mouse. But hopefully they still taste good. And he is 2 so I'm sure he will just be happy he's getting cupcakes right?

    GTKY: What is one thing you're most proud of?

    obviously I am proud of DS. But other than that I am proud I finished school. I had a lot of trouble in college bouncing around majors and schools and ended up dropping out at 22 and got a job. But after being on my own for a bit I decided to go back. I worked full time and went to school full time online. It took me longer than most who got the traditional route of high school then college. But in 2014 about 3 months after DS was born I graduated college that last semester I gave birth and had a newborn to take care of. But it was so important that I completed it. I'm very proud of that.

    WAYDTGKU: normal ways

    R/R/CS: Still just waiting for my period to end.

    GTKY: What is one thing you're most proud of? I am going to say my job, I am SS teacher. I work at one of the hardest areas in education: middle school and at a title one school (so most of the kids are very poor). This is my second year here and I have already seen soo many teachers say they just cannot handle this population or school district (because it is soo poor we have to buy even things like our projectors) and leave. There are days I want to pull my hair out, but I really love my kids and I can really see that I am making a difference. I have really helped change kids lives, how many can truly say that? Also we are an art integration school and I am soo proud to be part of a school fighting against testing and memorization. We fight so kids can get real hands on education, now is it perfect no, we still have to do all the testing and it feels like every year we fight to the death to make sure we keep the arts in our school, (we are the only school in the whole district that has more than one elective for kids to choose from) but is a fight I am soo proud of and will continue to fight against politicians who know nothing about education but keep putting their noses where it does not belong.

    I think I'm most proud of my family. I love them so much and they're really good people. We're extremely close and I'm not sure who I could be without them. My H was accepted as if he was another child and he agrees with that. I'm proud that we are all here for each other and we make certain that family is a priority. I feel very confident bringing a child into it.

    @MollyandD Glad you survived the storms last night! :-) My DH was the same way. He said if he ever got married it wouldn't until he was 30. He turns 31 on Friday and we've been married for almost 9 years.

  • @PartiallyDomesticated  *(hugs)*

     @Renee1105, I've ovulated between CD 15 and 19 so I start with one a day on CD 12, then increase to 2 per day when they start turning darker - time-wise usually at 11-12 and 5-6

    It's so nice to see everyone tooting their own horns!  I like all the positivity and pride!!

    WAYDTGKU:  the usual + epo 

    R/R/CS:  I think the epo is making me nauseated. Maybe it's something else in my environment, but I've felt decidedly unwell the past few days. 

    GTKY: What is one thing you're most proud of?  This is really hard for me to answer, for some reason. I'm proud of lots of things...  I'm probably most proud of living my life the way I've wanted to. Not that I'm a huge rebel, but I grew up a total people pleaser and I've hit my milestones my own way in my own sweet time, often diverging from my friends' paths or family's advice. And everything has worked out just fine ;)

    CD: 15

    WAYDTGKU: well, it turns out pretty much nothing this month. See R/R/CS.

    R/R/CS: I can hardly believe I'm saying this, but as it turns out, we're skipping this month. Not because we agreed it would be good for our peace of mind or because one of us is traveling during the FW or any other LEGITIMATE reason, but basically, because we just couldn't get aligned for it to happen. DH is stressed because of a bunch of crap at work and as a result has been acting like a total ass. And as you all know, it's hard enough as it is to get in the mood when things have to be so scheduled and un-spontaneous, but it's THAT much harder when you're walking straight up hill. I'm pretty sure I O'd yesterday and this month is a wash. I'm beyond annoyed and frustrated. I'm embarrassed that we have our first RE appointment on Tuesday and if she asks if we tried this month, I have no defensible reason to say why not. I just can't wait for this process to be over. I hope it's not too much longer. UGGGHHH. 

    GTKY: What is one thing you're most proud of? I'm most proud of my education and the courage it took to change my career when I could have easily stayed in a very comfortable life. It's very important to me that I am happy in my life and that everything I do reflects my authentic self. I know that sounds kinda cheezy, but it's what I deeply believe!

    WAYDTGKU: Nothing. Not even thinking about this right now.

    R/R/CS: I woke up with a really bad headache. On the plus side, I didn't have to temp this morning, the sun is out this weekend and we are supposed to have beautiful weather for awhile, took my dog out for a walk and right now...coffee! 

    GTKY: This may sound really lame to some people, because millions of people drive, but I was thinking about this the other day and I am really proud that 2 years ago I got my license and have been driving every day since. I used to have major anxiety about driving or even being in a car and I worked past it and have "mostly" conquered my fear.

     @skiingstark  I noticed there are a lot of teachers on this board and you should all be proud. I am always in awe of what you guys have to do and we probably don't even know the half of it.

    Month/Cycle:4/5

    CD:11

    WAYDTGKU:Trying stuff but nothing's cooperating

    R/R/CS: So I usually O about CD 13-15. Started OPK yesterday and got solid smiley. I'm wondering if I messed up the clear blue digital OPK by doing a random one after I O'd last month and so maybe it was using that as beasline, then because LH is much higher now than that last one it gives a positive? I dont know but now it's basically useless for 48 hrs from what I've read from other posters. Ugh! Really hope I'm not Oing early this month because we tried to HIO this morning and it was a no go due to performance issues. Did you ever feel like you were out before you even started trying? That's how I feel about this cycle. 

    On top of all that, just found out that I'm going to the Caribbean for my surprise anniversary trip next month. DH was planning it and I spoke to him about Zika but I don't think he completely understands or is as concerned about it as I am. He basically thinks if we're not going to Brazil then it's ok. It is somewhere I really wanted to go and he's so proud of himself so I can't be mad at him but I'm going to be so worried about it the whole time and will be neurotic about making sure we don't get mosquito bites. 

    GTKY: What is one thing you're most proud of. 
    I guess my degree. Just really finished last year after many years of school. 
  • Month/Cycle: 9/9

    CD: 14

    WAYDTGKU: OPKs, temping, charting, saliva microscope, checking cm/cervix, sex EoD or however close to that we can get with DH's low libido and performance issues, supplements for egg quality: CoQ10, PNV, Vitamin E, R-lipoic acid. Acupuncture. Whatever I'm forgetting.

    R/R/CS: My OPKs have been "nearly positive" for like... 3 days. Ya know that level of nearly positive where it just needs to be the teeniest, tiniest bit darker to be a real positive. I've never seen this happen where it has been this freaking close for 3 days. Although, it looks the tiniest bit darker this afternoon so I think I'm making progress. Plus I had a nice full fern this morning on the saliva microscope and my advanced digital OPK finally went positive. Progress! DH and I haven't been doing great on the whole FWP front. We got yesterday and I'm hoping we'll get today but DH had to travel 5 hours for a wedding. I declined to go because I hate the guy that is getting married. DH picked really terrible friends before he and I met and the guy is a major bag of dicks. So I clearly didn't want to offer up my Saturday to travel 5 hours to a wedding where I'd be bored to tears and then travel 5 hours back home. No thank you that sounds horrible. I'm hoping DH won't be too tired to FWP when he gets home but let's be honest: that's going to be a long day and I'm betting he'll decide to spend the night with his parents who live up there rather than leave the wedding early to make the drive back. I mean who drives all that way for a 20 minute ceremony and then leaves? So I doubt I'll see DH today but if I do he'll probably be exhausted and totally not in the mood to FWP. As long as we get tomorrow, assuming I don't O today which I doubt I will, it should be fine. But I'd really like to finally have a month where we get all the important days instead of -2, O or -1, +1 or whatever. We'll see!

    Sorry about the novel for the R/R/CS :open_mouth: 

    GTKY: I don't really know. I don't want to sound all down on myself here but I'm not especially proud of anything in my life. I mean I'm not really ashamed of my life but I don't really see anything in my life and think "I'm totally the tits for that!" ya know.

  • @Lecool I don't but I may see if there's one in the next big town (hour and a half away but we go often). I don't want to buy it in town because we aren't telling anyone we are TTC and it's one of those everyone knows your business kind of towns. I'm hesitant to buy it on my kindle cuz i would really like a hard copy. Then again I'd only be able to read it at home because it's be hard to hide the cover in public. Basically I'm making this way more difficult than it needs to be. But it's kinda what I do. 

    Does anyone else have a preference of digital vs. real book?
