Re: WTO Monday 10/24

  • @abjm0325 thanks!  I'd  appreciate it
  • Loading the player...
  • @PleaseSendPicklesNow The odd thing is your 3DPO temp is much higher than your previous temps. I think it will really depend on what happens tomorrow. If it stays up, you may have just O'd super early. I hope it all works out. 
  • @saralee797 Thanks for looking. That's interesting... I thought at 3 dpo, it was typically higher than previous temps. Should it have dropped more than it did?
  • I was just saying that if you threw out the open circles I could see an argument that you may haven't O'd but you have a solid temp at 3 DPO that is way higher than your initial temps. I'm thinking if it stays up tomorrow you might have O'd already. Make sense @PleaseSendPicklesNow ?

    Awesome, thank you! I'll have to see if gluten free quick oats will work in place of the old-fashioned...I imagine they should? I like the poppy seed idea; I didn't know!

    Just got home and took another OPK. It was negative but FF says I probably O today so maybe I have a really short surge? AHH frustrating

  • @JuneRoseRuby  - Yes it is. DH was really in the mood yesterday so we BD 3 times (several hours in between) so if it is a short surge and today is O day I am hoping that yesterday would be okay in terms of timing. I might try to get DH to BD when I get home from seeing the movie tonight.

  • @JuneRoseRuby

    Thanks! That made me laugh. Yes I like sex but without temping to confirm what the OPKs are / are not telling me, I figure BD tonight (which isn't set in stone yet) can't hurt anything. Due to schedules, if we don't tonight, we wouldn't be able to for a couple days.

  • Can I get a CS? Is it possible I O'd yesterday? I'm confused at why my temp didn't go up this morning. I usually O around cd 15.  And almost always have a 28 day cycle. Do I need to chill and just get more temps? Probably. 

  • @Brooklyngirl6 It does not look like you O'd yet. With a negative OPK today might guess that today Will be O but you'll have to see what your temps do. I would keep temping and using your OPKs. We have a saying around here that your regular till your not. GL

  • @Brooklyngirl6 You have too many open circles to be able to tell anything. If you temp at the same time each day, you shouldn't see such Rocky Mountain temps. 
    It's funny how it's the little things in life that mean the most...not where you live, or what you drive, or the price tag on your clothes... There's no dollar sign on a piece of mind, this I've come to know! *ZBB*

    @JuneRoseRuby I have celiac disease and we keep the house almost entirely gluten free for my sake (I was very ill by the time they finally diagnosed me and I needed intestinal surgery and it took years for my antibody levels to get to normal levels plus I have connective tissue disorder and some other comorbidities so it's just better to be safe, especially when TTC....autoimmune reactions can cause infertility/miscarriage :( )
  • @NYTino24 I always temp between 4-5:30am. It just depends on DS but it's always after 4+ hours of sleep. I feel like my temps are pretty accurate. 
  • @rainbowturtles I too worry about infertility caused by autoimmune disorders as my H has type I diabetes.  Woof. My doc also thinks I most likely have Ehlers Danlos (CT disorder as well) but he doesn't think it is worth the muscle biopsy to test me.  I was wondering about the oats for you because I've heard that even gluten free oats are one of the most cross contaminated foods, so I know my coworker (that has a son with celiac) does not use them at all.  Look at us connecting with our Maca and auto immune disorders!

  • @JuneRoseRuby lol that's crazy...ya, I have Hypermobility type EDS with some characteristics of classical EDS (but dr also won't do the genetic testing). Isn't it just the worst??!! Have you heard of the Spoon Theory? I usually call my friends with chronic illnesses my "spoonie friends" :)@mrsdaddario is my other spoonie friend on here (she has MS)


    PS: I would only eat oats that are certified and tested to be gluten free, and even then it's rare. I have the Quaker gluten free quick oats in the cupboard but they're mostly for H. And that's the thing, these energy balls would be for H, too, but I don't even like to risk handling anything with gluten or contaminated with gluten or risk contaminating my kitchen with it. Luckily DH is awesome about this and I'm a pretty good cook so he can't complain lol (plus he can eat all the gluten he wants outside of the house, of course lol)

  • @Brooklyngirl6 - are you temping at the same time everyday? You seem to have a lot of open circles.

  • @rainbowturtles ha! I haven't heard of it but just looked it up! Did you watch greys anatomy last week? ED was a 'one in a million diagnosis' and I was like whaaaaat?!? No it isn't!!! It really annoyed me.

  • @JuneRoseRuby ya I was happy for the recognition but also like, no, doctors just suck at diagnosing it because they never look at the big picture. If you look at all the symptoms and comirbidities I have (and you too, I'm sure), then nothing makes more sense! I could definitely relate to the girl being upset and saying "so I'm not crazy??!!" tho! It's not super common but there are also varying degrees of severity. For example, I don't fully dislocate yet, but I sublux like a mofo! But also, the hypermobility aspect is only one part of it and it doesn't mean I'm just super flexible lol It's typically why I say CT disorder but even then, the vastness of it is still quite misunderstood. Anyways....I could ramble allll day haha ;)
