    WAYDTGKTFU: PNV, temping, monitoring CM and CP, acupuncture, and all the sex

    R/R/CS: Spent most of last night at the ER. Everything has been crazy stressful lately, and my anxiety issues have become more of a problem this week. I started having chest pains and my left arm went numb, so DH made me go to the hospital. It ended up being minor. They just gave me some clot busting drug and told me to start a daily aspirin regimen along with avoing anything strenuous or stressful.

    GTKY: If you have the opportunity to go back in time and change one thing, what would that be? (The change can be in your own history or the world's history.)

    And here I don't have a good answer to my own GTKY... It's so hard to pick just one thing to change!

    @mrsdaddario so sorry you didn't get the good news you hoped for this morning. Hopefully going back on the medication will mean that something will happen between now and Tuesday. If not, maybe they will need to adjust your dose or try another med. There are always options!

    WAYDTGKTFU: pnvs, temping, green tea, pre seed, opks

    R/R/CS: I'll start OPKs today when I get home. Super tired today, I am just so ready for the weekend! 

    GTKY: If you have the opportunity to go back in time and change one thing, what would that be? I believe everything happens for a reason,  all the things I've been through has shaped who I am today. So I wouldn't change a thing. 
  • @Kay6519 so glad you're ok!

    @clover28 I'm sorry!  I hope the procedure goes well and you can start to heal quickly.

    @mrsdaddario FX for your appointment next week.  *hugs* to you.

    WAYDTGKTFU:  cm, cp, OPKs, sex, vitamins/coq10, acupuncture next week

    R/R/CS:  My temp went up this morning, but I woke up feeling hot so I'm sure that's all it was. :confused: 

    GTKY: If you have the opportunity to go back in time and change one thing, what would that be? (The change can be in your own history or the world's history.)  I would go back to high school and reach out for help from my peers and teachers when I was needing it.  I was almost in tears a few years into college to find out that they had been helping each other with some of the same things I was struggling with and they would have loved to help and support me.

    Months / Cycle: 2/2

    CD: 4

    WAYDTGKTFU: bbt, charting, pnv, CoQ10, opks, H on daily vitamin + extra zinc and C.

    R/R/CS: So my period has been getting shorter.  I've always had 4-5 day periods starting light, going to heavy, and then back to light.  Lately I've been having periods where I immediately get 2 days of super heavy and then 1 day of light and then it's just over.  Even when I was on HBC years ago I never had such short periods.  What gives? Is this normal?  Have any of you experienced this?

    GTKY: If you have the opportunity to go back in time and change one thing, what would that be? (The change can be in your own history or the world's history.)
    Sweet lord that's a big question.  I guess I would go back and make sure Hitler got admitted to art school (some may not know that he was rejected from art school) so that he would go into the arts instead of politics...
  • Months / Cycle: 1/1

    CD: 20

    WAYDTGKTFU: everything normal

    R/R/CS: Ugh. I was 100% sure I ovulated yesterday. All the signs pointed to that. And then my temp did not go up at all today. I cannot keep having bad sex. I don't know what to think or do. I might just count this cycle out and just live my life and wait and see. It was only our first cycle trying anyway. Today was supposed to be a fun day hanging out with my SIL and her baby, hitting up some garage sales and stuff. Now I'm just in a bad mood. 

    GTKY: If you have the opportunity to go back in time and change one thing, what would that be? (The change can be in your own history or the world's history.) I don't know. I wouldn't really want to waste this on something in my own life, because I am turning out fine. I would probably stop something bad from happening in history. To early and annoyed for this right now.

    @sammajane19 I'm sorry you got the wrong meds. That seems a bit dangerous that they filled the wrong drug. I hope your week gets much better!

    @steelerfan78 I love your quote!

    @kenya715 I'm glad you had a good time. Hopefully you get everything you need accomplished while you are extra motivated!

    @thejerilu I'm so sorry for your loss. Poor pup. Take care of yourself. *Hugs*

    @clover28 I hope you get to feeling better soon!

    @mrsdaddario I'm sorry you didn't get the growth you were hoping for. FX for better news at your next appointment!
  • @mrsdaddario That sucks! I'm so sorry and hope things look a lot better on Tuesday. 

    @Kay6519 Oh my! That is scary. Take it super easy and be selfish the rest of this week. Do what you need to do for you. 

    @sammajane19 I'm sorry. I have a tendency to freak out over other's mistakes when I'm on my period. I'm sure I'm not the funnest person to be around. Just take some deep breaths.

    @Kenya715 - Thanks! This is my first cycle not temping since joining TB. I've honestly barely posted so far because I felt so disconnected from the threads. We sort of are NTNP this cycle anyway, so I don't even know if I'm "WAITING" to ovulate so much as I'm pre-O. /ramble

    @TheJerilu - Aw ❤️ I'm sure he felt the love either way.

    @mrsdadario - I'm so sorry you're stressed. I have all the things crossed for you.

    @antato - Good one for the GTKY. Also, I have phases of cycles where I have two mega heavy days followed by a light day and then a day of spotting. Then I go back to longer periods. I don't have an explanation for it, but I do experience it.

    @mrsstuessy - Oh gracious I'm sorry! I'm all for taking a break from sex if you need to. If I'm not into it or DH is too tired from work, we skip. Granted I'm not KH yet, but I don't want us to be miserable when it comes to the bedroom. Take a break if y'all need it!!

    WAYDTGKTFU: pnv, coQ10, just started omega 3 and Dha yesterday, sex eod until confirmed ovulation...

    R/R/CS: oh my word the cramps I had last night almost had me in tears!!! I'm hoping they had to do with ovulation (I got a pos opk two days ago and I'm waiting to see if my temps confirm).  I've been negative about this month even before we began, it threw me for a huge loop not even ovulating last month!! Trying to be positive now!!

    No way would I change anything. I just watched that new James Franco show on Hulu, wouldn't want to mess things up that I didn't mean to!

    Months / Cycle: 4/4

    CD: 1, I am okay with this. Our timing was good but it's been such a stressful few weeks that I just knew that it wouldn't happen for us last cycle.

    WAYDTGKTFU: Time to get serious with Temping and actually make it part of my routine, Green Tea, RRL & PNV, Diet & Exercise

    R/R/CS: As I mentioned above it's been a crazy few weeks. My home town was evacuated due to a forest fire leaving many of my friends and family without anywhere to go. My dad was one of the unlucky ones who lost everything they owned. To say that it's been an emotionally draining week would be an understatement.

    GTKY: If you have the opportunity to go back in time and change one thing, what would that be? (The change can be in your own history or the world's history.)

    I am also one of those people who wouldn't change anything. I believe that everything happens for a reason.

  • mrsdaddario  i wish i could answer you, but i don't know! my RE never talked about my egg production; not once. i only know that my follicles didn't respond well at all; even when i was put on another five days at a higher dose. there was very minimal/no growth. so i was immediately switched to clomid - and of course, that worked. but girllll i absolutely know how you feel. why does it have to be this hard?! it SHOULD be easy. i hope you respond to your second dose! my fingers are crossed for you. if not, remember, there are always other options, and you WILL find something that works for you.

    mrsstuessy thanks. i'm not usually this emotional during AF, but this month it's been beastly.

  • <span class="vanilla-mention-@">@Marley629 </span>I'm so sorry about that, with your mom.  That is tough, but at least you know as far as she is concerned, maybe it doesn't matter so much anymore the exact last time you saw her.  You carry her in your heart regardless and she is with you always.  I feel that way too sometimes about my dad's passing - I was there at the hospital, but I had stepped out to walk around the lobby at like 3AM and get these fresh pastries from the caf my mom was raving about.  When I came back up to the room, my mom and brother were asleep; I'd like to tell myself that I saw him breath one last breath, but I might have been seeing things.  I don't really know, but anyway, what matters is we all came together as a family and were there for each other, and he was finally at peace.  ((hugs))  I still feel him with me especially this time of year when you start to see so many flowers in bloom. :)

  • @aammyy33 - How is Whole30 going for you? I'm feeling like it's way easier now that I'm on day 11, too!
  • @DoctorDonna SO MUCH EASIER! Hardly having any cravings! Getting in a meal routine and starting to feel good/have more energy. I even had to go out for dinner with work people Tuesday night and found compliant stuff on the buffet (salad with no dressing, steamed veggies, pork roast and fruit for dessert). I was a bit grumpy about missing all the good stuff (open bar and dessert for miles!) and having to explain why I wasn't eating everything. But once I explained it to everyone they were pretty good about it and I felt great after, where normally I would have over-ate and regretted it/felt like crap.

    Months / Cycle: 1/1

    CD: 17.  Add me in the camp of people not knowing when to head to the 2WW.  I was charting CM but it has gone from creamy to sticky and I have no idea if that is the best I am going to get this cycle, or if things are just wonky with my hormones.  I am going to stay here at least a few more days.

    @BusinessWife T&PS for you and your family! I hope everything works out well for her.
  • @antoto & @ratparade - Mine have been a lot lighter since stopping BC. I asked the Dr at my appt on Monday and she said it's totally normal and just an age thing. Our periods get lighter and shorter as we get older. I wouldn't worry unless there are other things that are totally out of normal. 
  • @antoto  My periods are short too. When I was on BC, they were down to only about 1 day, maybe 2. Since going off, they're been only about 2/3 days (1 heavy, 1/2 light, one spotting)

    Months / Cycle: 1/1 (+2 not charting)

    CD: 14

    WAYDTGKTFU: charting

    R/R/CS: Nothing exciting. Waiting to see a temp spike....I am thinking about buying some cheap OPKs next month. 

    GTKY: If you have the opportunity to go back in time and change one thing, what would that be? (The change can be in your own history or the world's history.)

    The only thing I would think about changing in my life is taking things a little slower. I took advanced classes all through high school while working a part time job (full time in the summer), then got my undergrad in 3 years and started grad school immediately. Now I'm on track to get my PhD a year early. Now that I'm near the end, I'm not sure if it was worth it just to be done a few years earlier.
