R/R: I changed my tampon earlier. Less than 10 minutes later I felt wet as if I forgot to put a tampon in. Checked and in those 10 minutes I bled through the regular sized tampon. I went through a super tampon in the following hour. Definitely not normal for me but hopefully it dies down.
DH took me out to our favorite Thai restaurant and we're going out with people tomorrow AND I have wine
CS/Q:

Yes but I wear shirts that cover my butt and vag.

----------
So if I put my temps in at 1/10th a degree instead of 1/100th, I'd have CH this morning. But just to be sure, I'll hang out here one more day.
Month/Cycle: 4/3
CD: 17
WAYDTGKU: HIO EOD, PNV, CM, BBT, etc.
R/R: I was very annoyed at no CH this morning. Oh well. Can't win them all. I'm just glad my chart is making more sense. Oh, and it's Friday!
CS/Q: Not today
GTKY: If they're as thick as pants and I can't see your underwear line or camel toe, then I don't have a problem with it. Personally, I only do it when I'm running errands or lazing about the house.

R/R: Rant: wish I would have started temping earlier this month. I'm going to have to wait it out at least another three days before I get any crosshairs
CS/Q: nope
GTKY: Do you think leggings are pants/can be worn in public as pants?
Yes, with the caveat that they must be thick enough and cover things up. The other day I saw a woman with flesh colored leggings. Just NO.
@slaven sorry for CD1. That sounds miserable. Hopefully you can get to your couch soon so you can can curl up with a good movie and a blanket
Hello ladies, sorry for any CD1s and sucky, never-ending AFs.
I just wanted to jump in to second @LoveInDC's suggestion... For everyone, not just @slaven! The first time I read about menstrual cups my knee jerk reaction was "that's disgusting." I slowly came around and finally got curious enough to just buy one. I love it and will never go back! I'll refrain from hijacking this thread and putting in a whole bunch of unrequested extra info, but will just say that I think they're great for a number of reasons.
Edit: somehow an extra word snuck in there.
Month/Cycle: TTA

R/R: Yesterday I called to establish care with an OB so I can get an annual and just have an OB ready for when I eventually get KU. Well, when calling I was told that the doctor I wanted to see wasn't accepting new patients (even though it says she is on my insurance website) so I agreed to see another doctor at the same practice but then they wanted to schedule my appointment in JUNE. Um no. So after saying that wasn't going to work they magically found a day in April. ::Eyeroll:: Husband comes home today!! Happy Friday everyone.
GTKY: YAS. I always wear leggings as pants BUT they have to be thick enough so that when you bend over you can't see straight through them! I also tend to wear longer shirts so it covers the areas.
CD: 3
WAYDTGKU: waiting for AF to GTFO, temping, green tea, PNV, CoQ10, daily pep talks with my ovaries
R/R: It's FRIDAY!
CS/Q: --
GTKY: Echoing PPs -- as long as the leggings are thick enough to prohibit me from seeing your undies (or lack thereof) and your bits are covered by a tunic length shirt.
@slaven ugh - so sorry about the super heavy CD1
@cdnrunning EW. Flesh colored leggings? Just no.
@LoveInDC FX you get your CHs tomorrow!

Note that menstrual cups are not great for everyone. My gyno told me not to use them if you might have endometriosis.
Month/Cycle: 8/10
CD: uh 8ish? I don't think I have any cycle buddies this month so I am never going to remember.
WAYDTGKU: CM, OPKS, abbreviated version of temping. PNVs, Vitamin D, Vitamin C, Zinc, avoiding soy and BPA. This is our IF testing cycle.
R/R: Because I hate myself, I did a HPT this morning because today is my HSG. @lund I caught the bug.
CS/Q:
GTKY: Eh. It doesn't bother me. People should wear what makes them comfortable.
CD: 14
WAYDTGKU: all the things
R/R: my RE said you call if I get a positive opk which I did this morning, but now that I think about it I think they don't want me to trigger if I get a positive because they think I'll O on my own which I never do and even if I trigger today my follies won't be big enough since they were only 11 and 12 on Wednesday. Im gonna get some clarification when I call but I'm thinking about asking for another u/s around me today for my peace of mind.
CS/Q:
GTKY: Do you think leggings are pants/can be worn in public as pants? Yes, if everything is covered and you are not wearing them 2 sizes too small
Also: I wanna jump on the band wagon here and back up what @LoveInDC said. I LOVE my menstrual cup. At first, I thought it was gross and weird and how/why would you shove that up there, but I noticed I would have a heavy flow and when I would put a tampon in it would almost stop until I took it out and then blood everywhere because I wouldn't put one back in thinking af was gone. My cup has definitely helped with that.
Month/Cycle: 8/9
CD: 6
WAYDTGKU: pnv, temping, checking cm, hio. I might also start praying to a god that may or may not exist, because why not?
R/R: we are supposed to go to my DH's boss' house for the super bowl. They said not to bring anything, but that's not how I roll. I was thinking a dessert of some kind or appetizer. Any ideas??
CS/Q:
GTKY: Do you think leggings are pants/can be worn in public as pants?
I will go with everyone else. Yes, if they aren't see-through and your stuff is covered. I don't wear leggings in public, because let's face it, no one wants to see my giant thighs and overflowing ass cheeks... If I got myself to the gym once in a while I could probably pull them off!

Sorry, I failed at not hijacking! @adirat, that's interesting, my OB and RE suspect that I may have endometriosis though it is unconfirmed. I've never heard that you shouldn't use them if you have endo, but I have heard the debate about them causing it. My symptoms way predate my use of menstrual cups, so I didn't think much of it. If you don't mind me asking, what was your gyno's reasoning?

@slaven Yay for date night! And wine!!
@LoveInDC That’s just odd…..I guess it’s just a waiting game now. Although I would probably continue to HIO just in case!
@cdnrunning I’m not sure when you started temping but regardless of when someone starts, it always takes FF 3 days of high temps to give CHs. Fx you get them soon!
@JJMNO1616 It’s frustrating when that happens! I’m glad they were able to “find” an appointment earlier to get you in!
@JulesDP I’m still giggling over “pep talks with my ovaries!” Hehehe
@adirat GL at your HSG today!
@kaitlink33 I hope you’re able to get clarification!
@BertieMeetsGertie I once found a video for cannoli dip and it was really tasty! I used nilla wafers as the dippers. Here is the video with the recipe! https://www.facebook.com/littlethingscom/videos/493465880862789/

CD: 10
WAYDTGKU: BBT, OPK, CM, CP, PNV, Magnesium, EPO, vitamin D3, green tea, limiting caffeine, myo-inositol and I might throw some preseed in the mix tonight
R/R: More spelunking last night!! DH was confused because I previously was so militant (his words) about doing EOD. At this point I don’t really care, I’m excited my body is working right and I just want the best timing I can get
Also, I think I got a +OPK with FMU! I’m testing again around 10 am and we’ll see if it’s as dark as it was this morning! Going to attempt to seduce DH again today, hopefully he can handle 3 days in a row
CS/Q: Not yet!
GTKY: Do you think leggings are pants/can be worn in public as pants? Absolutely. As long as they are not so tight that I can see anything underneath. And I will shamefully admit that I was one of those people that had nearly flesh colored leggings (back when they were called stretch pants) when I was a teenager. My mom bought them for me for Christmas one year and I don’t think I realized how close they were until I actually had them on and one of my cousins made a comment that it almost looked like I wasn’t wearing pants

WAYDTGKU FET cycle
lowering lupron dose today(goodbye migraine?) and adding 2 estrogen patches
R/R: suppression check is today, which also means we get to pay for the FET today, which is a bummer.
CS/Q:
GTKY: Do you think leggings are pants/can be worn in public as pants?
i love leggings. But always cover the butt and v.
@LoveInDC I have been seriously considering a menstrual cup. Do you recommend any particular one?
@JJMNO1616 yay for YH coming home!
@adirat good luck today!
@BertieMeetsGertie A fre years ago I made rice crispy (k or c?) footballs for the super bowl. They were a huge hit! I will see if I can find the directions. But you basically use coco rice crispies and cut them into football shapes and use white ice icing for the laces.
@lulu1180 yay for body doing what it's supposed to do!!!
@JulesDP happy friday cycle buddy!
Month/Cycle: 5/5

WAYDTGKU: not much this month. HIO up until DHs surgery
R/R: It's Friday AND I am going to the rink today for a couple hours on thr ice! I haven't had time to go for months. Super excited!
CS/Q: I know there was a convo about this awhile back, but I couldn't find it last night. What vitamins do you all recommend for DH?
GTKY: Do you think leggings are pants/can be worn in public as pants? Yes, if they are thick and cover your butt.

WAYDTGKU: temp, cm, opk, pnv, hio
R/R: Friday!!! Going to try to duck out of work a little early and then we are headed up north to go skiing with friends this week. Believe it or not, northern Arizona has some pretty awesome skiing.
GTKY: Do you think leggings are pants/can be worn in public as pants?
Sometimes. Like others said, if things are covered and/or can still be left to the imagination I'm OK with it. I'll usually only do it for gym/jogging, around the house, or going for a pedicure.
@jess0211 I might have missed this, but can I ask what's YH's surgery?

CS/Q: small temp spike today is feeding my irrational worry that I will O before we can do an IUI, but OPK was neg and I have not had any fertile CM so I am trying to calm the BSC.
GTKY: Do you think leggings are pants/can be worn in public as pants? I'm with the other ladies that yes as long as the Band V are covered. also please make sure they are not see through!
@slaven sorry for CD1 hugs, wine and chocolate
@loveindc @zwink1 and @kaitlink33 I am with you ladies I love my menstrual cup! it is so easy and way less messy, I don't think I will ever go back to tampons
@adirat you're one day behind me. GL with your HSG today. let us know how it goes.
@lulu1180 way to get it girl!
@heatherdubrow GL with your appointment today, I hope all goes well. ugg for having to pay for everything...

- If you can feel the cup after you put it in, it is not in there right.
- If the cup has a suction seal (aka, doesn't return to its shape inside of you), it is not in there right.
- You can always wear a panty liner or thin pad until you're more comfortable.
- You can always take it out and put it back in if you're worried. It's not a one use thing!

WAYDTGKU: all the stuff. My newest strategy this cycle is to clear DH's pipes tonight or tomorrow (romantic, eh?), and then let him store up the baby batter until I get a +OPK (which should be around CD15). It's a strategy we haven't tried yet, and I already know his swimmers are less abundant than desired, so I figure it's worth a shot.
R/R: This is dumb, but mildly amusing. So I decided to wear some tights yesterday. Hadn't worn tights or nylons for a solid 3 years, but I found a brand new pair of thick, legging-like tights at the bottom of a drawer yesterday and thought they would look good with my sweater dress. I had apparently bought them on sale, because I don't normally buy control-top. Holy mother of Zeus I'd forgotten how hard control-tops are to get on. At one point I literally thought I wouldn't be able to do it. But, alas I prevailed, and enjoyed my firmer "controlled" butt and tummy all day.
