WAYDTGKU: Waiting for a scan on Friday to check follicles. Finished last 7.5mg Letrozole last night.
R/R/CS: I am so busy at work! I'm a receiving manager for a garden center and we're getting truck loads upon truck loads of plant material that needs to be logged into our system. I usually log in all of the perennials, annuals, herbs etc and the nursery stock buyer does his own logging in. But he is out sick for a the majority of the week (sick as in he had an accident with a lawn mower, and the mower won), so now I have to do his work and mine. But it makes my days fly by!
GTKY: You can go back in time to the day you got your first AF and give yourself one piece of advice...What do you tell yourself?
My advice: Do not tell your older, meaner sister! It will then become everyone's business that her 12 year old sister just got her period, and cried on the toilet about it. Sigh. Older sisters can be the worst!
CD: 12
WAYDTGKU:
R/R/CS: They changed my work schedule, so I had to be up an hour earlier then normal 2 days in a row, so my temps are obviously off. Has anyone used the "Temperature Corrector" feature in Fertility Friend? If so, anyone find it be very accurate? Cause with it, one more high temp gives me O on Monday, but without it no CH. As of now, I put in the corrected temps with notes of what the actual temps are so I can change my mind later. Bleh.
GTKY: You can go back in time to the day you got your first AF and give yourself one piece of advice...What do you tell yourself? Focus on boys less, it's not going to make you find the right one any faster. To be honest, my 11 year old self probably wouldn't listen, but it's still solid advice.

WAYDTGKU: AF appears to have left the building. Going low key this cycle, PNVs, Met, not sure if we will actively do anything else.
R/R/CS: So DH and I had a big TTC talk last night. I'm not even sure if we will use OPks this cycle. I think constantly being aware of what is going on with my cycle is just contributing to my stress. I still have some time to use them if I want as I'm only cd 5, but I am strongly considering just having sex a few times a week and hoping for the best but not completely being surprised at the worst either. I'm starting to feel like none of this "stuff" matters. I'm totally aware that I am in a funk and being a negative nancy, sorry guys.

You'll be ok, and don't worry mom will still let you go to soccer camp.

Do NOT keep using the pads your mom buys for you. Get brave, go to the store, and look at the aisle of pads yourself and pick out something thin and absorbant... with wings. (My mom bought the thickest freakin pads that you could practically see them through my jeans, BUT they leaked like crazy. Middle school was a nightmare.)

WAYDTGKU: Crossing my fingers?
R/R/CS: I appreciate all the responses from you all yesterday on whether or not I should temp. I decided I would start next cycle to give myself a full month of data, plus time for Amazon to deliver my Mabis.
Until I got home. H was not on board with the temping... I think he had a mini-freak out because of the "pressure" of TTC and told me he didn't want to have to force things or have sex become a job. I am trying to sympathize because honestly, I'm pretty dependent on his role in this thing.
GTKY: You can go back in time to the day you got your first AF and give yourself one piece of advice...What do you tell yourself?
I'd tell myself to get on the pill sooner. I had horrible cramps/periods and didn't start the pill until the end of freshmen year of college, and AF became manageable again.
@MrsRoss89 I'm away this weekend (without H) and I'm hoping not to miss some important days, too. Isn't it crazy how that has become a concern in life now??
@mrsdaddario That does sound horrible, but I'll admit, I always wanted a sister. An older brother was ZERO help during that time of my life!
CD: 3
WAYDTGKU: nada at the moment outside of temping
R/R/CS: I am hopping over to this thread, and calling it CD3. I was having what I thought was some spotting since Sunday, but it hasn't stopped so I am going to assume I am just having a super light period that came early at this point. I'm keeping my FF app updated with my period, but leaving my other app (Ovia) as spotting just in case it stops at some point today. It's really odd because it's so, so minimal and I normally have zero spotting. Like, in years. I don't even know that it's enough to consider it a light flow. My temps have been really wonky the past few days, but I've had to travel to Asia for work and that always gets me all out of whack. I'm only here 2 more days so I guess that's the upside (and the downside...it's a long freaking trip for just a few days).
GTKY: Hmmm...I guess I am lucky in that I really don't have any issues with crazy flows, bad cramps, or anything to warn myself about. I guess I would say always keep a tampon in your purse because toilet paper diapers are never fun when you are caught unprepared LOL

WAYDTGKU: PNV, BBT (well failed again this morning b/c I woke up super early and tossed and turned a bit until temping...), hopefully getting lucky a bunch...
R/R/CS: Kind of pissed at my OBGYN because while he's a great doctor he made this all sound so easy. In January I told him DH and I would be starting to try this summer (yea we moved the date up a couple months). He said great that I should stop BC and wait to have a natural period the next month, have sex on cycle days 12-14 and he'd see me back this summer for bloodwork when I got a positive test. From that I just assumed man this is easy. But he didn't mention my cycles would be so wonky and that not everyone ovulates at the same time etc... Now that I've learned a lot from you all I'm feeling better but I feel like he really left me to be shocked cycle 1 when things were not as I expected them to be.
In other news board game night last night was super fun. DH and I met some new cool people and they taught us to play a game we'd never tried before called Zombicide. It's a co-op game where you're trying to escape from zombies as a team. I really like co-op games, one of DH's and my favorites is Pandemic. I'm a sore looser so it's nice to work with the people you are playing with rather than against.
GTKY: You can go back in time to the day you got your first AF and give yourself one piece of advice...What do you tell yourself?
Oh boy I was one of those unfortunate kids who started in elementary school and it sucked. I would tell myself that it gets better and not to be so self conscious though it was really hard. Also I ended up having surgery in high school to wear tampons. For some reason my opening was way way too tight to get even the slender fit ones in and I hated the giant pads my mom bought where you could see it through my pants and they leaked something awufl. I would tell myself to get that surgery earlier if possible because it was life changing for me!

I got my first period when I was 12, I had gone away to sixth-grade camp but came back for a night because I was getting an award here in town. That night I came home I got it. I don't know what I would have done if I was away at camp. Anyway, I would tell myself to at least pay a modicum of attention to how often I get my period. That would be helpful information later. I didn't go on BCP until I was 17, and I have no memory of what my period was like during those 5 years.

To make sure your period is actually over before you stop wearing pads. I had a few months when I thought it was over (super spotty flow when I first started), but then I would bleed later on in the day. A few very embarrassing trips to the nurses office taught me to wait a little longer.

Don't bother with tampons or pads. Just buy a menstrual cup now instead of waiting (wait, did those even exist back then??).
@marriedhamstermom - PANDEMIC IS MY ALL TIME FAVORITE! Have you played Pandemic Legacy? It's not an expansion like "In the Lab" or "On the Brink" etc. It starts out like the original Pandemic but it morphs as you play it. It's set up so you have to play with the same group of people, and it's designed to play once a month over the course of a year. You can't replay the game once it's over, as the board gets pretty destroyed with stickers and markers and stuff. But OHHHHH my gosh. So freaking fun. And it take Co-Op to a WHOLE new level. We don't play monthly because we are addicted. We play about every other week in replacement of our regular weekly game night.
Also recommend Flash Point which is a Co-Op and super hard... but we have only played twice, so maybe we just don't get it yet. I have a bunch of friends that prefer party games too (which are fun, but truly not the same). But we have won them over slowly starting with easy "real" games like Tsuro/Tsuro of the Seas, Ticket to Ride, The Resistance.. Etc.
Do you have any good game recommendations? We are always on the lookout!

I'm nervous because I've never been under anesthesia and I'm worried about the potential of more scarring. I originally was going to proceed next cycle with Letrozole and trigger but I don't know if it's worth "using up" those fertility meds if I only have one good looking tube. This paired with my PCOS feels like I'm losing the number game. *sigh* woe is me.

CD: 2 (so many 2’s!)
WAYDTGKU: Nothing at the moment! Waiting for AF to end. Hubby will be going away soon but he will be back on CD 11 so hopefully that doesn’t screw with our timing.
R/R/CS: I know that everybody and ever BODY is different, but does anyone want to share with me what their cycles were like after the BCP? This first one was 28 days exactly, but I know I can’t expect that every month. I want to make sure I give myself a reality check.
GTKY: I had just turned 11, and I cried when I got it. I was so upset. I would tell myself that that first period was NOTHING compared to subsequent ones and to prepare more (since I was away at camp when I got in the second time – ulgh – horrible memories).

WAYDTGKU: sex ED starts today
R/R/CS: DH is so awesome! We had a long talk last night about how this is the first month where I feel really stressed out and I'm having a hard time with all the things you can't control about TTGP. He told me that ultimately he's not thinking a lot about the TTC part and is more concerned about planning for the actual LO but because it's so important we will do whatever it takes, for as long as it takes. He even said if sex gets to the point where during my FW he just has to "deposit" for a few days, he's fine with it because it'll get us where we need to be. I'm not yet at a point where FW sex has to be like that but it was really reassuring and comforting that it feels like we're fully on the same page. With that being said, I'm hoping my vag can survive the next few days intact.
GTKY: You can go back in time to the day you got your first AF and give yourself one piece of advice...What do you tell yourself?
Don't be afraid to tell Mom. She's not going to be mad; she's just scared about you growing up.

WAYDTGKU: Sex. PV.
R/R/CS: Went to take DS to the sitters this morning (also known as my best friends house) and her driveway was completely under water. I had a made freak out cause I couldn't be late to work. Luckily her husband has a huge truck and was able to drive through the yard and grab my son from the road. DS was not happy we were breaking routine. Not a great start to the day.
GTKY: You can go back in time to the day you got your first AF and give yourself one piece of advice...What do you tell yourself? I was 8. It was incredibly embarrassing. Probably would have told myself to relax.

@mrsdaddario I was the older sister in my house. My little sister was awful. Once she took my diary to school and read it out loud in the hallway. We like each other now luckily.
@clover28 GOOD LUCK! You got this!
@hartmich We are both just starting this TTC journey. Happy to see someone else hanging out here with me. I almost chose not to temp starting out, but I like having control and knowing whats going on. Good luck!
@hopingforoneagain after BC my cycle went immediately back to normal. I never went back on after having DS, but when I first started TTC I went off BC after 9 years and it was crazy how quickly my body found a routine so it can happy! I have my fingers crossed its happening for you!
@ealasagna45 I'm sorry to hear you got bad news! FX this cycle starts to look up!

WAYDTGKU: BBT, PNV, OPK, HIO
R/R/CS: My temps are really low, my OPKs are starting to get darker, but I have almost no CM! I'm thinking I might be dehydrated from working outside all day yesterday, so I'm trying to hydrate extra today and see how things progress.
GTKY: You can go back in time to the day you got your first AF and give yourself one piece of advice...What do you tell yourself? Don't worry so much about what other people think.

WAYDTGKU: BBT, CM, letrozole (first time), IUI #1
R/R//CS: I have been lurking and finally got up the nerve to participate!
I do not feel old! I am on the higher end of the age spectrum and I do not feel old! My RE says I have young ovaries and my HSG was clear. The SA was good. But no luck this month - so IUI here we go. I am a bit scared. I know the success rates but it gets harder when stuff doesn't work each time. I start Letrozole tomorrow and it does feel good to be doing something. Either way I look forward to getting to know you all better.
GTKY: I was 12. It was July 3rd and we were camping! I would tell myself to buy lots of tampons and pads! Always have them!!!Always! In every purse!!!
I love board oars games too! Settlers and Ticket to Ride! I own Pandemic but we have not gotten to play it yet. How sad is that! Going to fix that soon..,
For co-op games Forrbidden Island is great! Changes every time and easy to teach new people. Shadows over Camelot is fun too and has a lot going on.
