WAYDTGKU: Nothing right now, once AF leaves, ED-EOD sex and PNV, OPKs

R/R: No rants or raves- I just kind of wish it was Friday already

CS/Q: none

GTKY: What is your favorite/most used app on your phone (besides FF)?

This is gonna sound dumb but its true, I have an app that allows me to see my patients bloodwork results and I use it probably 50 times a day

GeorgiaWife6912 · October 2016

I have a meeting that lasts most of the day so I'll try to check in later but I had to post my rave!

Month/Cycle: 2/1

CD: 32

WAYDTGKU: PNVs, VitD, BBT, OPKs, preseed, HIO as much as possible

R/R: Y'ALL! I got a positive OPK last night! Finally! I'm so relieved!

All day yesterday I had AF symptoms (bad headache, cramps, face broke out badly) so I was 100% convinced I wasn't going to O. I was like:

DH asked me if there was any chance I could be pregnant and just missed O and the logical me knew there was no chance, but the BSC started creeping in so I decided to dip a wondfo hpt (at 10pm nonetheless).

Image: https://i.giphy.com/3o7TKzzMMNluisQTpS.gif

While I was at it, I went ahead and dipped a wondfo opk as well and it was a glaring positive, whereas my one from yesterday morning was pretty much stark white. DH is out of town all week after today so we will only get one day in my fw, but I almost don't even care because I'm not anovulatory as I originally suspected!

Image: https://i.giphy.com/PlV1CgZN9YNPi.gif

Soo... bring on next cycle haha. Fx it's not as long as this one was.

CS/Q: Nope! Hoping for O tomorrow or the next day!

GTKY: What is your favorite/most used app on your phone (besides FF)? Facebook for sure. Followed by my camera/photos and then instagram.

edit: gif fail

(that pretty much sums up my current mental state)

Month/Cycle: 3/3

CD: 1

WAYDTGKU: Just waiting for AF to gtfo

R/R: Unrelated to TTC, but the video pop-ups on TB are driving me insane.

CS/Q: Ladies who use Mucinex: do you use the dosage and frequency reccommended on the box? when do you start taking it?

GTKY: Definitely a tie between Facebook and Instagram!

magnolia131 · October 2016

Month/Cycle: 22/13

CD: 1

WAYDTGKU: waiting for AF to leave, metformin, PNVs, vitamin D, zinc, CoQ10, B6, RRL tea, and temping for now....thinking of adding mucinex this cycle. I took it last cycle when sick and noticed a big difference in CM.

R/R: CD1 was not a surprise, so that lessens the blow a bit. And I'm so excited to have a clean slate for temping after last month's mess. DH walked into work this morning to 6 security guards and a corporate HR team with a stack of severance and relocation packages to the ceiling, so that definitely confirms recent rumors of mass layoffs and has me on edge today. Also the whole hurricane Matthew thing....waiting to see if they cancel school/work so that we can maybe consider just evacuating if needed.

CS/Q:

GTKY: What is your favorite/most used app on your phone (besides FF)? Instagram, Pinterest, or Pandora.

Sorry to @kiwi2628, @tripledaggerWed95976, @JulesDP and any other people who followed us here from the TWW today. Treat yourselves.

tripledaggerWed95976 · October 2016

Month/Cycle: 5/5

WAYDTGKU temping, OPK, preseed

facebook, Pinterest, Instagram

WillRunForWine21 · October 2016

Sad to see our group getting bigger with ladies coming over, have all the wines and all the chocolates

@GeorgiaWife6912 Excited to hear about the +OPK!!!!!

@JulesDP I am doing mucinex for the first time this cycle. I bought the 12 hour one and plan to take it at about 3-5 pm each day starting today (my typical O day is 14-16) From reading, it seems you start about 4 days before expected O and through confirmed O. If you are not doing a 12 hour release, try to time it 30-60 minutes before BD. Again, only reading, no personal stories yet!

Month/Cycle: 4/4

CD: 9

WAYDTGKU: PNV, BBT, EPO, OPK, mucinex, preseed, tea, BD

R/R: my school was closed yesterday and today but i took yesterday for a day with my mom at the outlets so I have a whole weekend of chores and a doctor's appointment today (annual) I know I am only 4 months of trying but I also want to be on her radar as unsuccessful thus far so its not a surprise if I go back and am heightened anxiety. Just never enjoy the doctor no matter how prepared I feel

CS/Q: nope!

GTKY: What is your favorite/most used app on your phone (besides FF)? Instagram for sure. Also, we are planning a February Disney trip so the Disney app is starting to get a lot of play

ETA to add comments

swimsister · October 2016

Month/Cycle: 7/7

CD: 2 – AF showed late last night

WAYDTGKU: Nothing right now

R/R: I can’t deal with 7 months of trying right now. Just…. F*ck.

CS/Q:

GTKY: What is your favorite/most used app on your phone (besides FF)? Probably the Podcasts app. I listen to podcasts on my commute and when I’m doing chores.

@GeorgiaWife912 Yay for a positive OPK! And yay that it happened BEFORE your DH left town.

@tripledaggerWed95976 @magnolia131 @kiwi2628 @JulesDP Sorry for CD 1 ladies.

laurad75 · October 2016

@GeorgiaWife6912 Yay! You must be so relieved.

@JulesDP the video ads are so annoying and distracting.

Month/Cycle: 6/6

CD: 17

WAYDTGKU: too tired to list all the stuff.

R/R: another high temp this morning so I am all but convinced I O'd and missed the surge. If so, its not the end of the world because our timing was pretty good but I'm frustrated that I missed the surge and missed out on our plan for the IUI.

I went for b/w and u/s this morning so I will know more when the nurse calls later. The u/s tech told me she 'saw something on the left and something on the right' but she won't know what she was looking at until we get the blood work back.

CS/Q:

GTKY: What is your favorite/most used app on your phone (besides FF)? Instagram for sure. I also look at facebook but with all the political posts it has not been my favorite.

CallMeMrsChaos · October 2016

@GeorgiaWife6912 Yay for the positive OPK! Long cycles are tough to deal with (I had them when trying for my DD) but it is definitely something you can work with!

Month/Cycle: 4/4

CD: 1... there are not enough donuts in the world today.

WAYDTGKU: nothing.. waiting for AF to leave me alone

R/R: CD 1. Nuff said.

CS/Q: I have short LPs from what I can gather from the last few months of charting, ranging from 9-11 days. I have seen you ladies mention vitamin B6 might help, is that correct, or did I mix up my information?

GTKY: What is your favorite/most used app on your phone (besides FF)? Facebook hands down. I love stalking friends' pics and we use it a lot with our LLR business.

GeorgiaWife6912 · October 2016

@kiwi2628 I feel ya. I am already ready for friday!
@JulesDP I'm sorry for CD1

Those videos are driving me insane as well!
@magnolia131 Sorry for CD1. Hopefully the relocations don't affect y'all too much!
@tripledaggerWed95976 I'm sorry for cd1 for you as well! Ugh!
Ugh! And @swimsister you too!
@laurad75 I'm so sorry! Creepy internet hugs to you!
@CallMeMrsChaos Eat all the donuts. You deserve them!

hartmich · October 2016

@Georgiawife6912 YAY for +OPK! Mine are still so white, so I'm crossing my fingers I get a random positive out of nowhere too eventually...

@magnolia131 When it rains, it pours, huh? That sucks about layoffs at your H's work. It's not a good environment, even for those left behind.

@julesdp The video ads are breaking my shockwave and making my Bumping supppper slow. I'm so annoyed.

Month/Cycle: 5/4

CD: 20

WAYDTGKU: nothing new here

R/R: I had the weirdest dream where I was trying to take a HPT and got a BFP and then it was really an OPK. Total mind eff.

CS/Q: My temp dropped today so please, please, please let this mean we are gearing up for O over here.

GTKY: What is your favorite/most used app on your phone (besides FF)? Instagram, I'm addicted. I follow a lot of fashion bloggers, which leads me to way too much online shopping.

swimsister · October 2016

Seriously though.... there's no way the Bump could be syncing our cycles... right??

GeorgiaWife6912 · October 2016

@swimsister I was actually thinking the same thing! It's crazy how many of y'all move back and forth together! Maybe it will sync me... and these 42+ day cycles will go away!

bumpybump · October 2016

@GeorgiaWife6912 yay for positive OPK! It feels like a long time coming.

@magnolia131 I'm sorry to read about your husband's job. I always like to look at the positives and know something great could come from it. Best wishes to your family as he looks for something new.

@CallMeMrsChaos @tripledaggerWed95976 @magnolia131 @JulesDP @kiwi2628 so sorry to see all your CD1s

Month/Cycle: 3/3

CD: 7

WAYDTGKU: PNVs, temping, charting, OPKs, consuming more water, HIO EOD

R/R: Not right now

CS/Q: None

GTKY: What is your favorite/most used app on your phone (besides FF)?
Facebook. With my Moms group that split from TB and my pages for my business, I'm on too much.

Edit: thanks for deleting 3/4 of my post TB!

shstephenson · October 2016

@kiwi2628 @JulesDP @magnolia131 @tripledaggerWed95976 @swimsister (I'll include you too even though its technically CD2) So many CD1 ladies today

Hugs to you all!!
@GeorgiaWife6912 Yay for turning an OPK!! I know you're relieved!

Month/Cycle: 6/6

CD:4

WAYDTGKU: PNV, CoQ10, BBT, green tea, Preseed, HIO like our lives depend on it, OPKs and Mucinex coming soon

R/R:

CS/Q: OK so this isn't necessarily chart stalk but it is a question. I got off BC in May and made sure to have all of the sex around my "FW" (now that you ladies have educated me, I am aware that it may or may not have actually been my FW-- I wasn't temping). So I have been counting May as my first month/cycle TTC. It was not until July that I started with OPKs and temping. So I guess my question is, would May and June count more as NTNP since I had no idea when I actually ovulated? Not that it really matters... just curious.

GTKY: What is your favorite/most used app on your phone (besides FF)?
Probably Instagram or snapchat. It used to be facebook but all the political rants/pregnancy announcements have turned me off.

Sugargirl1019 · October 2016

Month/Cycle: 8 months / 1 TTCAL

CD: 17

WAYDTGKU: temping, pks, cm, mucinex, extra methyl-folate

R/R: I didn't sleep at all last night. Insomnia was bad!!! I usually don't have any trouble sleeping so this was really weird. I'm tired now..

CS/Q: cd17 and still no O in sight

GTKY: What is your favorite/most used app on your phone (besides FF)? Honestly, The Bump. I mobile bump 99% of the time! I also use FB Messenger with a group chat of friends and there's always someone on no matter the time of day, and it's wonderful. I have zero battery because of it and my phone lives connected to a charger, but I deal!

laurad75 · October 2016

@shstephenson May was month 1 of TTC. If you weren't TTA you were TTC. I'm May too. :-)

britters314 · October 2016

So many CD 1 ladies

Sorry to all of you!

@JulesDP I'm starting Mucinex this cycle and I plan to start taking about 5 days before my expected O date. Don't start too early because you aren't supposed to take it for more than 7 days in a row. H and I usually BD in the mornings during my FW, so I'll take it right when I wake up, along with a ton of water. Did you get the regular kind or the extended release? That'll change when you want to take it.

@shstephenson It's really up to you if you want to count May and June. Since you were actually trying to time intercourse (even if your timing was off), I would say it counts as TTC. I think NTNP is more just having sex when you feel like it and not using protection.

Month/Cycle: 13/15

CD: 7

WAYDTGKU: Temping, CM, Mucinex and BD ED/EOD after my HSG tomorrow.

R/R: I got so much done yesterday! Now my day at work won't be super busy

CS/Q: None today.

GTKY: What is your favorite/most used app on your phone (besides FF)?
I use Chicago's bike share system, so probably the app that tells me if there are bikes nearby. (I don't really do much on my phone..)

shstephenson · October 2016

@laurad75 @britters314 Thanks! Like I said, I've been counting May and June as TTC but I'm fairly certain I missed my FW both cycles. I just hate that I didn't discover temping earlier! Emotionally I definitely feel like we have been TTC for 6 months/cycles but at the same time I feel like I almost wasted two of them. Ugh.

Mrs_Jp · October 2016

@GerogiaWife6912 I’m so happy you finally got a positive OPK!!

@JulesDP I totally agree, the pop ups are so irritating! I think they even slow my computer at home down!

@CallMeMrsChaos I’ve heard the same thing about vitamin B6.

Month/Cycle: 2/2

CD: 30

WAYDTGKU: temp, PNV, preseed, HIO

R/R: The wind here the last couple of days has been ridiculous!

CS/Q: Not today.

GTKY: What is your favorite/most used app on your phone (besides FF)? Pinterest and Instagram!

JulesDP · October 2016

hugs, wine & junk food to all my fellow CD1ers

@WillRunForWine21 and @britters314 Thank you for the input on Mucinex!! I haven't bought any yet, but I think I'll go with the extended release.

@GeorgiaWife6912 yay for +OPK!

@hartmich and @laurad75 Glad I'm not the only one hating on the video pop-ups.

KhRun17 · October 2016

@laurad75 - I'm with you, I've been avoiding facebook a bit more with all the political posts. ugh.
@hartmich - that dream sounds like something I would do in a sleepy haze and then be so upset with!
@CallMeMrsChaos @tripledaggerWed95976 @magnolia131 JulesDP @kiwi2628 - BOO for all the CD1's! Treat yourself well today, ladies!
@sugargirl1019 - that bunny GIF is too cute!

Month/Cycle: 7/5

CD: 15

WAYDTGKU: all the things...

R/R: I kinda slept like crap last night. Couldn't fall asleep until almost 1am, and then when my alarm went off, I couldn't get back to sleep.

CS/Q: sorry if the pic turns out big, my computer is being dumb and not letting me resize it very well...but... I'm concerned I never really saw EWCM. And I'm annoyed that I only got 1 positive OPK when I turned 3 last month. (forgot to enter it, but OPK is negative today too). If I enter a high temp tomorrow I get dotted CH's. Would you agree with that? The spike on CD12 is probably because I slept with an extra blanket that was kinda heavy and woke up sweaty. Also, I've been kinda checking CP but not consistent, but on CD13 when it was high, (TMI) it was so far up there that I couldn't really find the opening...

GTKY: what is your favorite/most used app on your phone (besides FF)? Probably my podcast app. I listen to it every morning when I run the dog, on all of my walks, whenever I go for a run, etc. I'm always on the lookout for new podcasts - currently my favorite is In The Dark, about Jacob Wetterlings story (I'm originally from MN, so it hits real close to home).

Dilynne · October 2016

Month/Cycle: 7

CD: 18

WAYDTGKU: All the things + Metformin

R/R: I think I o'd yesterday, and if that's the case our timing is shit. Super duper shit.

CS/Q:

GTKY: What is your favorite/most used app on your phone (besides FF)? Instagram, Snapchat and our Guide app.

kat0607 · October 2016

@tripledaggerWed95976 @magnolia131 @JulesDP @swimsister @CallMeMrsChaos and others I may have missed....so sorry for CD1, creepy internet hugs to you all - or instead, here's a less creepy kitten hug:

@GeorgiaWife6912 congrats on your positive OPK!

Month/Cycle: 3/2

CD: 7

WAYDTGKU: PNV's, temping & charting w/ FF and BD during FW now that AF has left the building.

R/R: Rant: DH and I have been looking for a house for 2 months now with nothing but a lot of disappointment (I guess 2 months isn't really that long, but it seems long.) At first the process was enjoyable, but we have put in 3 different offers on properties that we've loved, only to have them all fall through. I know something will work out eventually, but we can't help but feel a little let down.
Rave: Last night was the first night this cycle that I actually slept through the night and woke up to my alarm to temp...inconsistent waking time/sleep patterns was a concern for me before I started temping so it's encouraging to have at least one successful night so far.

CS/Q: Not much to see quite yet.

GTKY: What is your favorite/most used app on your phone (besides FF)?
I wish it wasn't Facebook, but it is. And I too am getting tired of all the political posts. Instagram and Snapchat are tied for 2nd.

laurad75 · October 2016

@shstephenson keep in mind that a lot of people who get KU aren't using apps, thermometers, meds, OPK's, calendars, etc. They just have sex on a regular basis and boom... KU. No matter how hard you are trying and what voodoo you are using to make it happen, you've been trying since May.

lund · October 2016

@GeorgiaWife6912 yaaaaaaaaay!!!

@JulesDP sorry for CD1, but your GIF cracked me up!

@magnolia131 wow. Ok, you win the worst Tuesday award. Sorry about CD1, stay safe, and FX about the layoff situation

Image: https://us.v-cdn.net/5020794/uploads/editor/3q/afcpljw8hqsr.gif

@tripledaggerWed95976 sorry for CD1 lady

@swimsister so sorry for CD1. On another note, podcasts are the best!

@laurad75 FX for the phone call from the nurse!

@Britters314 I love that you use the bike share program! I miss big city amenities like that.

_______________________

Month/Cycle: 3/3

CD: 16

WAYDTGKU: all the stuff - except I'm a temping fail this cycle.

R/R: We've been able to HIO most days this FW, but a couple times its been standing up in the shower (for various reasons). So, I hope that our non-TTC-friendly BD positions don't screw our chances too much.

Oh, and I think this new season of American Horror Story kinda sucks. Last season was SO GOOD.

CS/Q: my "strong" positive OPK was yesterday morning, but I'm still getting pretty dark lines. Should I wait until the dark lines go away to move to TWW? I screwed up temping this cycle so I'm in the dark. FF put my O date on CD 15 because of the positive OPK...

GTKY: What is your favorite/most used app on your phone (besides FF)? I'm boring, I'd say Facebook or Pinterest.

wabash15 · October 2016

Month/Cycle:5/5

CD: 17 (gosh time is flying!)

WAYDTGKU: still all things

R/R: I think I might have O'd yesterday (temp up to the high end of my pre-O temps, cramping and neg OPK today) if so after 5 cycles we finally BD on O! we have missed it every other cycle, so it was a personal goal of mine to try and make it happen this cycle.

CS/Q: not yet

GTKY: What is your favorite/most used app on your phone (besides FF)? calculator, camera and TB.

Oh my gosh, what a mass exedous from TWW. I'm so sorry @kiwi2628 @magnolia131 @callmemrschaos @tripledaggerwed95976 @swimsister for the CD1's.
@khrun17 way to get us started this AM! even though you didnt have any fertile CM with the OPK and temps it sure looks like you could have O'd... I guess we'll just have to wait and see what tomorrow's temp might bring, you may actually beat me to the TWW!
@georgiawife6912 Happy dance for a +OPK!! glad you could get in a sesh with DH before he goes out of town
@laurad75 ugg it is so frustrating when a tech does your US since they're not allowed to tell you anything. I was lucky and my RE did all my ultrasounds. Fx for good news this afternoon from the RN
@hartmich Fx for O
@shstephenson I would probably count those two months
@sugargirl1019 sorry you got crappy sleep last night, hopefully tonight is better
@dilynne sorry about the crappy timing.

adirat · October 2016

Sorry for all the CD1s today, ladies!

Image: https://us.v-cdn.net/5020794/uploads/editor/ej/b602kd9v5gob.gif

@JulesDP Sorry for CD1. Yes, the new pop-up ads are awful! Why did they start this???

@magnolia131 Sorry for CD1. I hope the hurricane isn't too bad for you!

@tripledaggerWed95976 Not another CD1! So sorry.

@swimsister So sorry you are having a rough TTC day

Creepy internet hugs. I hope this is your month.

@laurad75 Oh no! I hope you get some clarity from the office soon!

@CallMeMrsChaos I started taking B6/B12 for my short luteal phase. It isn't working yet though -- I'm still at 8 days

I hope it works better for you! Someone recently said (I think it was @TravelingCouple) that you should only take it during the TWW since it can delay O if taken during WTO.

@hartmich I like your new profile picture! And I hope today's the day!

@shstephenson I think you could count those cycles as TTC, not NTNP. The more you know, the more you can pinpoint O, but it's not like you weren't trying.

@KhRun17 Yes, I would give you CD13 ovulation. That's good timing! FX!

Month/Cycle: 4/5

CD: 11

WAYDTGKU: Temping, CM, OPKs, PNVs, CoQ10, B6, B12, vitamin D, green tea, avoiding soy.

R/R: It has taken me like ten full minutes to write this stupid post because every time the new video ads pop up, everything slows to a crawl. THANKS BUT NO THANKS TB!

CS/Q:

GTKY: Pokemon Go hahaha

tripledaggerWed95976 · October 2016

Thank u ladies so much for the support ❤️❤️

@khrun17 your chart looks like mine last cycle. I didn't get a positive OPK until the day I ovulated (and I even got one the following day), so I initially got dotted crosshairs that were then moved up a day. Even though u slept with a heavy blanket, it still looks to me like you O'd on CD 13. If your temp goes up more over the next couple days, FF will most likely move O to CD 13

ETA: this was my chart from last time.

zwink1 · October 2016

Sending my sympathy to everyone who just headed this way with CD1. Do something good for yourselves today!!

@GeorgiaWife6912 congrats on the positive OPK, finally!

@JulesDP those pop ups are driving me absolutely crazy. They also have to be timed just right so that you acidentally click on them. So annoying.

@kat0607 I'm sorry you're having a rough time house hunting. We searched for almost two years for our current house and put in 4 offers before something finally worked out. Hindsight being 20/20, I am so completely thrilled that things worked out the way they did and I love our house and neighborhood. However, that doesn't change the fact that there was definitely a pile of stress and more than a few tears during the process. Good luck searching and try to keep your head up!!

Month/Cycle: 12/10

CD: 14

WAYDTGKU: tea, temping, checking cm, vitamins, will get around to opks.

R/R: H planned a long weekend trip for next weekend and surprised me with it. It was very sweet and I'm super excited. Added bonus is that, as long as my body is cooperating, it should be right over my FW and we should get some great timing in.

CS/Q: nope.

GTKY: What is your favorite/most used app on your phone (besides FF)?
I use it less now than I used to, but I love Waze. It uses live updates from other drivers to analyze current traffic conditions to find you the fastest route. I used to have to drive through the city to get home and had 20+ different routes I could take. It was awesome for helping me find the quickest path.

shstephenson · October 2016

@laurad75 ugh you're right. My overwhelming need to be doing the most at all times has made me crazy I think. I need to chill.

GeorgiaWife6912 · October 2016

@hartmich thank you! And im crossing my fingers hard you get one soon as well!
@bumpybump @shstephenson @Mrs_Jp @JulesDP @kat0607 @lunD @wabash15 @zwink1 Thanks ladies! I am so stinking happy! I was starting to get worried. Longest cycle yet!
@shstephenson I agree with the other ladies, I would count those cycles as ttc because you weren't preventing.
@britters314 yay for productive days! They always make me feel so much better!
@kat0607 house hunting can be a ton of fun but mostly it's just awful. Especially after you look at so many houses. The whole process is just a roller coaster ride. Fx you find (and get) the perfect house soon!
@wabash15 whoo hoo for BD on O!
@adirat I feel your pain with the pop ups. Work blocks them so the whole process of them popping up and being blocked takes even longer. Ugggh. Also, what level on Pokemon Go?
@zwink1 that sounds AMAZING! What a sweet H! Fx your fw cooperates!

RunRestRepeat · October 2016

Good morning! I'm begrudgingly back from the mountains, but excited to get back to bumping!

@GeorgiaWife6912 happy dance for O!!
Sorry to all the ladies on CD1 and CD2 - creepy internet hugs to all.
@shstephenson I hear you on the TTC/NTNP... I'm still debating if I even count my first month since I had no idea what I was doing re: tracking until I spent a LOT of time lurking around here. Hooray for awesome TB information.

Month/Cycle: 2/2

CD: 16

WAYDTGKU: PNVs, CM/CP, HIO

R/R: I'm frustrated with myself that I haven't started temping yet. I know lots of women get ku without any technology, etc, but it's almost embarrassing that I didn't know so much about my own body going into this! I've been tracking CM/CP, but even with that, things are all over the place. I had EWCM yesterday morning, but then by last night it was creamy again. Who knows when I actually did/will O. Eh, guess I just need to HIO and buy a darn BBT already.

In positive news, since I had yesterday off, today feels like Monday. Sucks now, but will be great on Friday!

CS/Q: Nope.

GTKY: What is your favorite/most used app on your phone (besides FF)? Besides Clue (which I use instead of FF), it's a tie between Instagram and Strava.

bramblerose-2 · October 2016

So sorry to all of the CD 1's - I hope this is everyone's last time returning to this thread.

@GeorgiaWife6912 Congratulations on the positive OPK and being able to fit some time in with your husband. Fingers crossed.

@zwink1 A surprise trip that aligns with
your fertile week? That is THE DREAM. Sending you all the vibes.

Month/Cycle: 4/4

CD: 6

WAYDTGKU: Temping, opk'ing, prenataling,
mucinexing...

R/R: I've been posting the last few days about how I've been feeling down with the new cycle, TTC dreams, a fridge that broke down over the weekend, and a dog who's majorly regressing on her house training. This morning I decided to say eff it to my (self-imposed, scientifically unfounded) rule of no coffee before o and headed to a little French bakery by my house. I ended up getting there before opening hours but as I was headed back to my car, the owner came out and said he saw me through the window and couldn't send me away. It was such an unexpectedly kind gesture, and it was neat to see what the bakery looks like from the inside before things are in motion for the day. And a repairman is coming to fix the fridge today!

CS/Q: Not right now

GTKY: What is your favorite/most used app on your phone (besides FF)? I hate that it's Facebook, but it's absolutely Facebook. I do way too much absent minded scrolling.

Month/Cycle: 3/2

CD: 25

WAYDTGKU: PNVs , OPK, temping, preseed, cut out soda, making hubby take vitamin

R/R: so annoyed this morning. Temps still didn't rise and pretty sure I have a uti.

CS/Q: I used to get UTIs frequently so my old gyn put my on nitrofurantoin after every time I have sex. But I wasn't sure if it was okay while TTC so I stopped. Sure enough I woke up an hour early to go to the bathroom which I almost never do and I could tell. Then later when I went, it was light pink. I have a consult with my new ob on Tuesday so I'll ask then, but does anyone have to take nitrofurantoin? And does that mean I'm benched from BD for a few days? (Since I got my +OPK but no positives I was planning again on Wed).

GTKY: What is your favorite/most used app on your phone (besides FF)? The usual like email, FB, Instagram but right now I'm obsessed with Disney Emoji Blitz

@zwink1 @GeorgiaWife6912 thanks for the encouragement...it's been a roller coaster for sure! The wait is brutal but I would rather wait and end up with something we love, than just settle.
Also @zwink1 that weekend getaway sounds amazing!!! FX for good timing and hope you have an overall wonderful time, aside from TTC

@BrambleRose what a sweet gesture from the bakery owner!! Those kinds of things are like a breath of fresh air, especially in the middle of a lousy week. I'm sure the coffee was delicious too!

sorry for huge influx of CD1s... hopefully it's your last time over on this side of things
@JulesDP and everyone else, I honestly thought I was the only one with these popup ads! I ran my antivirus software like 3 times hoping it would clear things out... at least I know it's not just me. Now we just need TB to get rid of it!

@GeorgiaWife6912 hooray for positive opk!

@LuND Yeah, the bike share is great! We originally had our own bike, but it was stolen right after we moved to the city. But now we don't have to worry about that anymore lol. (Also, btw, when you tried to tag me you tagged the wrong britters)

Sorry to all the CD 1s

@shstephenson I am glad you asked because I guess the time I was recently calling NTNP was TTC too... so will go back to calling it all TTC now.

@GeorgiaWife6912 yay for O!

Month/Cycle: 6/5 I guess!

CD: 14

WAYDTGKU: lots

R/R: Got EWCM with very light O spotting yesterday! After a brief and frantic internet search regarding O spotting (which is unusual for me) ending in relief, I did an extra OPK and then and this morning got "high" but not yet peak so not moving over to TWW quite yet, but expect I will soon. Had a MH-might-leave-town-for-work-on-the-wrong-days-in-my-cycle scare, but 90% sure they got someone else now, so relieved we can keep to our EOD schedule.

CS/Q: Nah, I seem to be O-ing a bit early for me this cycle, but that may be a good thing and not concerned.

GTKY: I admit I was making a lot of political posts and would've annoyed you guys, but once the primaries ended I got disinterested and annoyed when people tried to pull me into their Facebook arguments because I was "done" at that point, so I deactivated my account indefinitely and removed it from my phone. It's been 2 months and I feel great about it TBH. I deactivate at least a few months every year and I always miss it less than I think I will (even before the election). I decided it was kind of interfering with TTC too because it was messing up my mood. Fuck FB! Now that it's off my phone, I've gotten really into word games and podcasts again and my mood is more "even" you could say and less dictated by other people's feelings about politics, unplanned KU announcements, and pictures of friends I knew in high school who I don't even talk to anymore. My real friends call me. I'm actually thinking of never going back to FB. But I've said that before. I'm at LEAST waiting out this awful election.
