  • @CandyApple2012 I'm sorry about your dog. I hope he's alright.
    @Tennis11785 Yes, I get nausea and a headache before I O. that and bloating/gas seems to be a recurring symptom for me. I think it's progesterone, which is also what causes nausea when you're KU.

  • **TW***  @starla - oh good.  that would mean I've got plenty of progesterone.  I would say this nausea is worse than it was with ANY of my pregnancies.  So if lack of progesterone was a problem and related to my 2 MC, my body has figured its sh!t out.

  • @lulu1180 gotcha. I kind of want to get into running because I want to do OCRs down the road, and running is kind of necessary if I want to compete. Also, that whole post was amazing. your gif game is strong.

  • Thank you @kvacmak When I have the extra few minutes at work, I try to find some awesome ones!  As for the running, I say give it a shot, I don't think you'll regret it once you really get into it.  Just a tip though, if you have a Marshall's near you (or similar store) I would check them out for running clothes as it's a lot cheaper than going through department stores.  

    @50Wife I had to try hard not to burst into laughter at you calling your body and OPKs bitches!

    @kiwi2628 You totally crack me up!!

  • @EmilyLove25 thanks for the link and the chart. 

    @lulu1180 thanks for the reassurance. I think I was just a little surprised. I do tend to alternate, historically a cycle 29-33 days and then a 26 day cycle, so it would make sense that O would occur earlier in the 26 day cycle (which this one would be in keeping with the pattern). Sometimes you just need to hear it from someone else for it to make sense in your own head. 

    @kiwi2628 just want to add that I thoroughly enjoy your sense of humor

    @lulu1180 great job getting out there for your run!

    @Tennis11785 I get crazy nauseous right around O, and right before AF too (which super sucks because I always convince myself I’m a snowflake).  Sorry you aren’t feeling well though.  And for the record: pro colloquial use of nauseous and pro oxford comma! ;)

    @Sailing_Mama so glad to hear your friend was receptive and apologized

    @purplg84 that sounds eminently reasonable to me!

    @kvacmak Ovulation dips can definitely be a thing (not for everyone, and really only identifiable in retrospect, but a low temp isn’t necessarily a big thing).  In terms of EWCM vs. “leftovers” EWCM stretches, not snaps; dropped in water (toilet) it will ball up and sink, not dissolve; if you get some on toilet paper it will remain on top, semen will dissolve after a bit.  Also, I wait at least 12 hours post HIO before I even attempt to distinguish, b/c by then it’s much more likely to be EWCM.

    @Shortstack930 Sorry about CD1

    @justkeepswimming8 I also get really nauseous during my TWW, I just have to remind myself: if I’m pregnant enough for symptoms I’m pregnant enough to turn a test, helps from getting my hopes up.

  • @kiki75 maybe that's it (emotion and string of conciousness).  And for what it's worth (kvacmak) - I'm totally pro Oxford comma!  Like I said, I usually stick pretty well to AP style for everything.  But I think using it makes things so much clearer.

    @KatieEl ya between the EWCM and HIO juice I've got a severe case of swamp crotch today 

    @LaurenEG14 positive OPK this afternoon, so we're on the right track!

    @SoldiersMom I can't imagine actually asking someone that question! It's so much more common than I feel like it should be. I've definitely been asked before. 
    @lulu1180 Congrats on your run! The first one after a while definitely sucks!
    @50Wife Sorry your OPKs are doing weird things. So frustrating!

    @Rejufsovelem I'm totally jealous of your 70 degree weather. Sorry about the cramps.
    @MJDsquared Sorry about your AF struggles. That happened to me last cycle. It was very frustrating! 
    @KatieEl YES!! About your movie choice. Sooo many feels!

    R/R: Super late posting today, because work was crazy (not necessarily bad, just busy due to standardized testing). 

    CS/Q:

    GTKY: What movie moment(s) gives you all the feels regardless of how many times you see it?
    This is a really good question, but I honestly can't think of a movie  right now. I will say that I almost cried during a read aloud last week. Another teacher organized a book bracket for March Madness that requires us to read two books to the kids everyday, then they vote on which one the liked better. Well, last week I was really busy and didn't read the books on my own first. **TW**The book (Knock, Knock:May Dad's Dream for Me) was about a boy whose father disappears one day because he was arrested. It was so sad, and I was totally unprepared. It was especially rough because I have a ton of students whose fathers are incarcerated or dead, so it hit home for them. They loved it though.**End TW**

    I should say I'm not 100% certain this is true. I had read it's due to changing hormones and some said it's due to estrogen and others progesterone. The progesterone made sense to me because it also causes nausea in TWW and during pregnancy. Does anyone else know?

  • *TW* So a little update to my rant...I had a coworker's funeral this morning and at the church I sat in front of my former supervisor. Before the service she taps me on the shoulder and says "Congratulations". I haven't seen her since I got married so I assumed she was congratulating me on that so I said thank you. Then she asked when I'm due!!!!  :o I said "wait what?! I thought you meant for getting married. I'm not pregnant". I felt so bad for her because she was super embarassed, but from what she had been told it was confirmed.Apparently the person who asked me in the bathroom the other day started telling people that I was before confirming with me that I am in fact NOT! How fun right? I have no idea how many people this fake news may have gotten around to, but former supervisor said she would correct the false info that is floating around. end*

I can't believe she would spread that around before she asked you! And even if you were pregnant, it's not her business to spread around anyway!!!

    I think my issue is (eta: my issue right this minute. Ask me in 5 and I'll prob change my mind) she said no sex or sports til the ultrasound.  I've already been 7 weeks without that. Having to go another 4-6 when it could be less is killing me. 

    @lulu1180 yes to Marshalls for running clothes!! I love them!!
  • @SoldiersMom I can't believe she did that!  It's bad enough she had the audacity to ask you if you're KU but then to spread the news before confirming it with you???  Hopefully your former supervisor will set her straight!

    @purplg8r Yeah, I can see how that would be an issue.  I understand the no sex with an EP but not with the cyst.  I think your Dr is just being waaaaay overly cautious on that front.
