    WAYDTGKU:
    Currently attempting to temp and also opks and pnv.  However my 2 1/2 year old is sick and thinks mommy and daddy's bed is his.  So since I'm approaching O day I suspect things are not going to happen this month :(

    R/R: rave - work is slow this week so that makes me happy. 

    CS/Q:
    My chart looks nutty so I'm going to finish out this cycle and see if there is any rhyme or reason.   I suspect I'll be posting on chart stalk in the next few days. 

    GTKY: Today is the first official day of winter... thumbs up or thumbs down?
    Totally thumbs up!  The days are getting longer again and I HATE that it's dark when I leave for work and when I come home from work! 
  • @Starla I get them on ebay.  Someone's trash is my Christmas treasure.

  • @KariAnn323 hang in there your day will come for sure! I spent yesterday evening listening to my SIL complain about the healthy baby she is having bc she wishes it was the opposite sex... honestly people are crazy and never appreciate the blessings they are given.  It's good to know that your friend and her baby are healthy and happy, especially given the circumstances! 

    @Flinstone I've been using the dollar tree ovulation predictors.  I used them a few cycles ago and they seem to be ok I feel like they are somewhere between the wondfo ones and the super expensive ones.  However I have zero knowledge other than my lurking and you seem like more of a pro..... so that's just my two cents,which is worth about two cents
  • @wabash15 WTG this long BF twins! It's hard to give up that bond so I understand the hard decision.  FX that weaning goes smoothly whenever you're ready.

    WAYDTGKU: OPKs. PNVs. Magnesium, fish oil 

    R/R: working from home today which means I'll really be cleaning and finishing wrapping gifts 

    CS/Q: my AF only lasted two days and maaaybe one day of spotting. So three days total. I know we've discussed short AF affecting fertility before but I can't remember the conclusion? Is three days bad? I thought the prior discussions ended with four days being okay. Usually I'm around four (2 days heavy, 2 spotting) but this month was hardly even spotting on cd3. Any insight would be great!

    GTKY: Today is the first official day of winter... thumbs up or thumbs down?
    ehh not my favorite month but I love the holidays!

  • @flinstone I just went for the CBAD this month because I felt like I wasn't doing a good job deciphering the wondfos. I also thought peeing on it instead of dipping would be a lot easier. This way I can take it to work and test during the day.

  • @starla welcome to temping! 
    @adirat gosh I hope you're right. My body has been faking me out lately! I am in the exact same boat as you are with thinking I o'd, but then didn't have any pain so this is an-o. UGHHH. I had pineapple yesterday too! Is it ok to eat WTO or only 1-5dpo I read it can make CM acidic. 
    @wabash15 dang we're all getting faked out this month!
    @jillibean0871 thank you for the info. I have use dollar store before, but had an an-o cycle that month so I didn't get anywhere with them either!
    @GG620 just read your signature. I had no idea there was such a thing as mild PCOS. Yay for the new puppy!!

  • @icecubeinthedesert whoa, I was feeling sorry for myself and wanted a glass of wine today too. I skimmed it but these stuck out!! 
    • acute alcohol exposure in female rats has been found to disrupt female cycling
    • A study of female rats fed alcohol or a control diet for 17 weeks starting at young adulthood (comparable in age to a 21–year–old woman) found that alcohol did not lead to anovulation but rather to irregular ovulation
    I don't even drink much as it is, but that will deter me for a while. I know we're not rats, but hey I'll try anything for regular O's!

  • @crazypuglady Thanks for the input! My google search lead me to women who "had a 2 day period" but were actually KU hahahaha ... I almost almost almost tested again this morning just for fun

    WAYDTGKU:  AF is still here.

    R/R:  *TW  I wasn't going to post here today.  I just checked Facebook and saw another pregnancy announcement.  Maybe I should get off FB.  I feel like such a child that I can't handle happy news for other people when my TTC road hasn't been nearly as long as others.  This friend got married in May and pregnant 2-3 months afterwards.  I don't know how long they were really trying but we are the same age.  I feel really awful.  *end TW

    CS/Q:

    GTKY: Today is the first official day of winter... thumbs up or thumbs down?  It's already felt like winter for weeks now.  I don't mind winter in general but I give it a thumbs down because I think more sun might help me feel more upbeat.

  • @flinstone I try to avoid eating citrus once I see ewcm because I've read the vitamin c can dry up cm, but I don't know how large magnitude of the effect can be. I'm just hoping I see a high temp tomorrow so I can know it was a 2dpo fallback rise. I've had that before. Does anyone know what causes that? (I also asked in the cs thread)

    Regarding alcohol and ttc, the research evidence in human studies is actually very mixed. The general recommendation is not to worry unless you already have ovulatory dysfunction. There are a number of reasons that rodent studies may not generalize to humans for reproductive studies so I don't put too much stock in it. That said, I may soon get desperate enough to try anything so who knows. 


  • @GG620 They're so cute! Looks like they get along well! 

    @Flinstone There was a lot of interesting stuff in there. I think they also noted that it was reversible (after they stopped treating with alcohol, their cycles went back to normal).
