</div><div>GTKY: Go to med school! Lol. But seriously, stop trying to figure out what's going through other people's minds. It's not possible, and it's not helpful! Just focus on your own ish, TCB, and the right people will still be there and love you for it. You dont need to bend over backwards to please everyone. </div>

dont worry so much about finding the guy and for god sakes stop being the crying girl at the bar. Enjoy your 20's! You will find him in your early 30's when you least expect it and all will fall into place.

GL with your phone consult... all the (((hugs))) you can do this. ♡
so many things I could tell my younger self, but I think the most important one would be: stop trying to force things to happen. When the right options appear, you will know. The things that come along later are WAY better than any of the ones you're trying to force (job, boyfriend, roommates, school). PS- the one you end up with is someone you already know so just chill the f*ck out!
if you get in a fight with one of your friends it's not the end of the world, stop over plucking your eyebrows, try harder in school

@delujm0 Yes to the get married sooner. I don't know what we were waiting for.
Love this question! For my high school self: I would say stop hoping your boobs will grow. They won't. You will have small boobs forever, and you will grow to love them, so stop stressing boys won't like you because of them.
@Marley629 your GTKY has me cracking up
Stop dressing so "comfortably" in baggy tshirts. You have a super hot body that you'll long for again.
Yo'ure allergic to beer. That's why you feel like shit after a night at the bars. It's not all just a hangover. Switch to mixed drinks and wine!
Keep working hard and your life does turn out pretty awesome

@BusinessWife good luck with your husband's SA count.
Get help! You're not ok and this is not normal. You don't have to go through life feeling like this. Suck it up and call a psychiatrist.

@Marley629 I would also tell myself to stop being the crying girl at the bar. Cheers to us.
@berg that cat story was everything. You gave me my first laugh of the day!
Don't do that last shot, you don't need it. Walking home alone from the bar is super sketchy, stop that. Stop wasting time and emotions on people who don't deserve either. Hug your family extra hard, they wont be here forever. Respect yourself more.

GTKY: What words of wisdom do you have for your younger self? Dump that asshole. For real, I wasted a lot of time on a certain someone. Also, stop caring about what other people think and don't worry so much about the future.
@felix08 I hope the phone consult goes well!

@JulesDP lol "STOP sleeping in your makeup! Truth.
@Marley629 Haha I think we have all been that girl at some point
@felix08 Sorry for the negative beta.. I hope you work out a plan for next cycle quickly.
@delujm0 Thats great news about your BFF!
@tripledaggerWed95976 Lol I should have given myself the eyebrow advice too!
@kiwi2628 Feel better!
@berg OMG what a hilarious story! I hope everything was okay!!
@bumpybump Sorry for the temp drop!
@Cait32 Oh man that is rough. We are in a similar neighborhood and I definitely have had those same thoughts! I don't want to move to the burbs though it really does not fit us at all.
@linzrunz Hey there cycle buddy! Bloodwork sucks and I hope you get a nap or something later.
@shstephenson Hope you get your results soon! Definitely let us know!
You are not going to get any taller, stop wishing for it and embrace it. Workout in college! the freshman 15 is real! Dont go to the school you feel is "safe" and leave Maine, and start trying new things.

@tripledaggerWed95976 actually audibly laughed at the eyebrow comment; I'm definitely paying for that myself right now!
@felix08 gl with the phone consult today!!!
@delujm0 that would be very cool to be on the same leave as your friend!!
@kiwi2628 hope you feel better!
@berg on no that sounds traumatic! I'm also regretting staying up for the debate because I'm beat today!!!
@EL824 also raving for fall!!
@shstephenson sending you the best wishes possible that the cyst is benign. I have quite a few cysts in my body and found a huge one in my breast during my sophomore year of college. It was scheduled to be removed but disappeared on its own. I've also had a humongous benign cyst removed from my left ovary and have about a 1/4 of the ovary remaining.

I'm on my planning break and the bell is about to ring. I'll be back for replies later.
Just the cliche stuff like "enjoy each moment". I don't have any regrets (or at least I'm not going to try to depress myself looking for any) so I would just let my younger self know not to worry about the future and be present in everyday. God, I sound like a hallmark card.
I would also like to know if sleeping with DH in a smaller bed than normal would affect.
So. Many. Questions/Variables I can think of related to this. I also started to wear socks to sleep to "keep my womb warm"
@Saralee797 that is a beautiful chart!
@bumpybump oh no, i wear all the baggy/boho shirts too.. the ones tight in the arms and chest and flowy around the waste. Thanks Free People lol. DH says the first time he truly "saw" my body when i was dressed was in my wedding gown.

I usually start by looking at the Stats tab to see what it the overall percentage of pregnancy charts, and then filter for my average post-O temps, and see if the Stats for pg charts goes up or down. Then if you add another filter, say intercourse pattern, see if the number of pg charts goes up or down. Theoretically, if you had great timing, then the number of pg charts would HAVE TO go up, because you're weeding out the ones that didn't have such viable timing.
You can also choose to look at pregnancy charts only, and just flip through or choose additional keywords to find ones that look like yours to overlay, i.e. similar rise pattern, slow or fallback, dips on a certain DPO etc. You may want to look at only pg charts (not the statistical mix) if you feel like you're putting too many limiting filters on, and it's coming back with too few or even zero results. So it really is something you have to just play around with, have fun with it (not take it too seriously), and see what works for you!
I may have to go back to looking at exclusively pg charts for now, (perhaps especially in the earlier DPO when there may not enough post-O temp information to go by yet), because this cycle I have been putting too many filters and they keep coming back 100% Ovulatory. :/ Counting my blessings for that, I suppose... Hope that helps!

@jeg07 I used to worry SO much about this!! I would have sex and be convinced I was pregnant 3 days later... sigh. Younger me is embarrassing.
@Flinstone good lord, I can literally promise that on my wedding day SO many people are going to be shocked not seeing me in Uggs & leggings.
@bumpybump I have always HATED baggy clothes. I always felt the need to look "cute" in high school. I seriously had like 9 miniskirts in a CONSTANT rotation. Even in winter. I was the leader of the hot mess express.
is it bad I STILL dont even own a hoodie?!? I went to look for one in my closet and was so upset I don't own one. Lucky for me, DH is convinced I'm his hunting good luck charm and will be buying me camo leggings and a camo hoodie this weekend

CS/Q:
GTKY: What words of wisdom do you have for your younger self? You have so much time. Take a breath and give yourself space to not always know what your next move is.
I’m trying to imagine my older self telling me this today. I have a phone interview today for a job I could really want, but changing careers right now would alter where I thought my life was headed in the next few years. I’m not sure I’m ready to make that change, but the job sounds awesome.
@bumpybump i see what you're saying.. i just get into the more boho-ish ones than just straight bag
@jeg07 i hear you on this 100%
