@vflux33 thank you for the insight on water intake! I never really keep track, I just know I refill my water bottle at work several times and have a couple huge glasses at home each night. I've been trying to limit evening water drinking. I will try harder tonight and see if I get any more sleep!
@BrambleRose Yeah, it's terrible, both because I depend on caffeine and because I absolutely love coffee! I've been reducing caffeine across the board but I'm pretty sure I'll be in the "occasional cup of coffee" camp even during pregnancy.
@Mythril I'm glad to hear your thyroid meds are working! My life was like night and day once I got on the right dose. It's pretty remarkable.
@adirat - I was thinking that might be the case, that I O'd on cd13. I'm lucky DH was being a boy and gave us good timing, otherwise we would've probably started EOD on cd13 anticipating a cd19 o. Alsp, Pokemon gets a lot of time on my phone too. @tripledaggerWed95976 - what caused your CHs to go from dotted to solid last month? @RunRestRepeat - isn't it amazing how little we know about our bodies. I wish THIS IS the detail they went into in health class as a kid. @hartmich@pepper16 - I am obsessed with In The Dark! I'm originally from MN, so I remember very vividly everything they tall about, and have been to a lot of the places they mention. @swimsister - I love the birth hour podcast! @vflux33 - you just gave me some podcast ideas. and I've been obsessing over how much water I drink too. I carry a water bottle everywhere and sometimes DH wants a drink and I get mad cuz then I don't know how much I've had... ugh.
@adirat today's tests were: DHA-S, Prolactin, Testosterone - Free, Testosterone - Total, Thyroid Stimulating Hormone, TSH Reflex to T4 free, AMH, and 2 Hour Glucose test. I was also supposed to get the 17 Hydroxyprogesterone test but the place I went to didn't do that and my RE hasn't gotten back to me with where I should go instead.
So far RE is okay. For some reason I am always suspicious of medical professionals either not being up to scratch on their research or being too busy to pay attention closely. But so far so good.
@khrun17 did you listen to Serial? That one takes place near me actually! I remember I was going to a testing center for work and drove by the Best Buy (I think) and I was like, OMG it's the famous Best Buy!
@khrun17 because FF didn't like the fact that I only began getting the positive OPKs the day of O. So, it initially gave me dotted CH on CD 13. It then changed it to CD 14 because of the drastic temp rise on CD 15-17
WAYDTGKU: FF, CM/CP, BBT, OPKs, PNV, HIO EOD in FW, exercise, sometimes green tea
R/R: Super busy day which means I'm so late to the game, sorry ladies.
CS/Q: Nada. LP was nice and long last cycle with a huge temp drop this AM that tipped me off to AF today. Kept hoping it was wrong but here I am, so...

@purplg8r I love the runDisney races! Did my first marathon in 2009 and since have gotten out there for at least one a year (2012 I did the goofy, Holy cow...) just doing the 10k this year, I was so worried in July when I signed up that I would be KU buttttttt we shall see. I've never been to DL, need to do a coast to coast

@antoto Well at the very least it sounds like a comprehensive set of labs! I've never even heard of that 17 Hydroxyprogesterone test. I experience the same fear of doctors not giving me 100% so I'm really hoping this works out for you. Hopefully you'll get them back quickly! I got my 7dpo bloodwork back two days later but I'm waiting on my CD3 for literally two weeks now, ugh.
Not sure if anyone will remember me...was here back in the spring. I'm not very good at posting regulariily, but now tht I'm almost done school we're getting more serious about this thing

@bramblerose, @GeorgiaWife6912, and @kat0607- He earned some major bonus points, and I'm really looking forward to it. I'm sure we will have a great time, and the extra crossed fingers are much appreciated!
Also, @BrambleRose- How sweet of that café owner, sometimes it's the unexpected little gestures!
@MrsDorkCharming - I'm sorry you're having a rough couple of days, and I hope the day off has helped you relax and feel a bit better.
@adirat Thank you for the input - that makes complete sense. I do understand the skepticism about not temping. I do track both CM and CP, so I'll take your suggestion on three days of non-fertile CM. Or heck, maybe I'll just stay here in WTO. But I figure that since I am tracking something, it might make the most sense to move over. I'll see what the next few days bring.
I have no issues saying my cycle is NOT regular - I've already admitted it's a mess after stopping bc. I sincerely hope that would never be implied by anything I write here!
@hartmich I did listen to serial! That's crazy. Did you hear he's getting a retrial and they're going to be reviewing it on a new podcast. @tripledaggerWed95976 - ah, good to know. We'll have to see what mine does. Today's temp was right around my usual post -o temps, so I doubt it'll go up more. But who knows.
@GeorgiaWife12 yay for +opk! I somehow missed my surge, never got a positive before the opks started showing a declining line.
@JulesDP I've never heard of using mucinex. Does that help you ovulate?
@WillRunForWine21 I saw doctor too which she just gave me Clomid and said she doubts it will help since my blood test showed i ovulated last cycle. I really don't think i did though. I agree with you though at least they are aware.
Month/Cycle: 5/5
CD:16 out of 34-36
WAYDTGKU: clomid, BD every other day CD 11, opks,temps
R/R: im really clueless as to what to look for with my temps..i think I'm looking for an increase of .5?
My opks are already showing a decline Even though i never got a +. Sigh.
CS/Q: waking up too early or too late not helping.
GTKY: What is your favorite/most used app on your phone (besides FF)? FB
@Runrestrepeat Absolutely! The mere fact that you are asking shows you are conscientious enough that you don't need to worry. If you're tracking CM and CP you should feel free to head to TWW when the time is right. I just know this is an issue periodically, so better to warn people than potentially see hurt feelings later.
