@Sailing_Mama@LoveInDC I use mobile bump and the attachment is still down, anyone have any insight on when it will be fixed? In addition to wanting to post pup pics I'm also experiencing gif withdrawals
@LoveInDC I left him in the crate for 2 hours this morning and did stuff around the house. DH and I have to go out later so he'll be home alone with my other dog. Hopefully he adjusts well!
@beachbunnyxo123 I'm sure he'll do just fine! Keep us updated though
@RVAmom315@Avrilmai I'm also a Stitch Fix fanatic. The prices are boutique prices. So if you don't understand paying $50 for a shirt or $100 for jeans, it might be a special splurge for you. I've never had an issue with fit and when my stylist pushes me out of my comfort zone, I end up loving it most of the time! I put a lot of effort into my Pinterest boards so they really get a sense of my style and it totally paid off. Plus the 5/5 discount is awesome. A $20 risk? Totally worth the try in my opinion.
R/R: Today has been crazy busy so sorry to P & G but I hope to swing by later when I get caught up at work. Yesterday for sure turned out to be CD1 so at least that isn't a question anymore! Just not so patiently waiting for my FW now.
CS/Q: Nope
GTKY: Name something that is supposed to be fun or enjoyable that you actually hate! Working out? I know some people really enjoy it but I just don't. It never gets fun me.
@ChristmasCookie Fake-outs are the worst! Sorry your body isn't doing what you want! That's happened to me before, where I'll get a +OPK and EWCM, and then no temp shift, and its so frustrating! FX for CH soon!
@Sailing_Mama Thanks for the advice! I switched it on my chart. I have read TCOYF, but my cycles were so much more black and white when I did. It probably won't hurt if I read through it again now that I'm in a different frame of mind.
@icecubeinthedesert No worries about TMI. It's par for the course here! I do the SETs they talk about in TCOYF, and I think I've got the differentiation down, but anything is possible at this point.
@pebbledam Thanks for the thoughts. I really do need to just invest in some cheapie OPKs. I'm hesitant to believe that advanced OPK peak because I had been testing in the morning which I realized was a bad idea, and on the second afternoon of testing, I peaked. Just seems fishy.
WAYDTGKU: Nothing so far.. I haven't started temping yet, and occasionally taking my pnv.. Our schedule hasn't been great this cycle either

GTKY: Name something that is supposed to be fun or enjoyable that you actually hate! Ice cream. It tastes terrible! Also going to concerts anymore (maybe I'm just getting old). It's expensive, parking is usually terrible, and my seats are never the greatest (see expensive), or strangers constantly bumping into me, and back in the day, grabbing my butt. Although, in November we were gifted amazing seats to a Post-Modern Jukebox concert, and I didn't have to drive or worry about parking, so, that was really fun.

@RVAmom315 my MIL gets S and S manicures (its a powder) and they last forever.. and she is prone to migraines and hasn't had a complaint.
@Avrilmai my husband did an escape room with his family (I declined as the idea of one really stressed me out), and he really enjoyed it.
@zamora_spin I love pedicures, my place does a hot stone massage with the package, and it is just so nice. I used to be weird about my feet being touched, but got over it, I figured they had to deal with worse feet than mine.
TTC again since 8/2016 Me:35 Dh:31 1 German sheperd puppy BFP August 24 2018!
@BoshnJonnie I had a traumatic experience at a concert and I will never go back to that venue. I was waiting in my car to get into the parking lot when a bus of drunk people passed me up. A man hung his "business" outside of the bus window. I was an innocent 18 year old I think. Shudder.
@JJMNO1616 Working out sucks. I do yoga and love the low impact workout, but I still dread doing it. Always feel good when it's over though...
@Avrilmai I tried discarding my highest temp back on CD7 because it was a bad sleep, thinking maybe I O'd on CD 12, but the other temps were still too high. I may not love this chart, but with the exception of that dip for the three days, it's been pretty consistent. I've been playing with "charts like mine" on FF and I think this might be an anovulary or 60+ day cycle.
@BoshnJonnie I wish it was about the grossness of my feet but it is more a general aversion to having them touched. I don't like them touched or like other people's feet to touch me, DH being the only exception.
@JJMNO1616 sometimes I DO love working out and then that is followed up by a day (or days) when I spend the whole time hating it.
@pebbledam@RVAmom315@augusta108@cricket648 You ladies are crazy! Give me all the manicures lol You don't have to talk! Just sit there and enjoy the pampering. Also, I never get regular paint anymore. If your nails chip easily you should try the shellack paint. It lasts about two weeks before any chipping! Mine will sometimes last even longer. It's amazing.
@purplg8r So happy to hear you are making progress!
@ChristmasCookie I really hate it when someone shows me their junk (has happened a few times in my life) so I get that. Ugh.. NO ONE ASKED YOU TO WHIP IT OUT!!!!
TTC again since 8/2016 Me:35 Dh:31 1 German sheperd puppy BFP August 24 2018!
WAYDTGKU: Just vitamins, sex (in theory). Since it's just 1/1 I haven't really had time to start anything.
R/R: I work as a bank teller, and someone just deposited a bunch of $1 and $0.50 coins. I went through them and picked out the ones with actual silver to take home to DH (he thinks it's neat to have them). So that was fun!
CS/Q: None, not charting currently.
GTKY: Name something that is supposed to be fun or enjoyable that you actually hate! Again, I hate brussel sprouts, and so many people seem to love them. But I don't think that counts really here haha. I actually don't enjoy going to the movies. It's too cold, uncomfortable, and it's just so long to sit in one place (am I getting old or what?!).
@BoshnJonnie I met DH online dating, so I've seen my fair share of unsolicited dick pics.
@ChristmasCookie Really ! Hung his junk out the window ? Thats disgusting. What is wrong with people. I actually hate when men drive around with no shirts on.
@lund I hope your method this cycle works for you !! I wonder also if we are having sex too frequently too. We had SA done in November and the numbers are in my siggy but we don't have progressive motility or morphology as our lab doesn't do that. We have a order for a new SA but we will probably wait until the FW is over.

@RVAmom315 I've done Stitchfix twice and have had good mostly good results both times. I think my stylist listens to what I like/want. I've had some sizing issues with tops so I had to adjust my profile. I decided to try it out because of @LoveInDC (thanks lady!) I'd gotten a lot of conflicting reports from my friends but sometimes you never know until you do it yourself.

@purplg8r, Big Thunder Mountain. I was fine with the movement but I didn't like feeling like I was going to hit my head on things! Apparently part of the fun is repeatedly thinking you're going to be hit in the head with something only to narrowly avoid it? Not fun for me. I preferred the teacups and the Haunted Mansion!
@MichahDahn Yay vacation! Where are you going? @Cricket648 Oh no! I'm sorry YH passed his germy germs to you. FX you get better quickly @sjb2215 Ugh, icebreaker games are the worst. I always feel so awkward. @Dilynne I'm so sorry for CD1 and your loss @beachbunnyxo123 FX your puppy does well in the crate tomorrow @ChristmasCookie My parents love eating outside and I hate it for your exact reason. My reaction to them suggesting that we eat any meal outside is usually: @SoldiersMom GL in TWW! @icecubeinthedesert FX your HSG goes well @Sailing_Mama 100% with you on festivals and concerts. It sounds like fun, but once I'm actually there all the people are so overwhelming @LoveinDC I think it's a man thing. DH is the same way. @Redpuma119 *Hugs* I'm sorry YH is being difficult about seeing an RE.
@purplg8r I used to love it too but after living in a not so hot Bronx neighborhood and visiting DH at work in Times Square all the time when he was down there I'm totally over it lol although I still like to go see a show every now and then and see the Christmas tree
@purplg8r I really hope that she agrees to do another US sooner. A) if it's interfering with the system, it's going to make you miserable and what if it isn't interfering with the system and you do get KU again and THEN it interferes with the system and C) I worry about your tube. I know it was getting smaller but...
@Dilynne I'm so sorry for the loss of your aunt + AF. I hope you can celebrate your anniversary in a week or so.
@icecubeinthedesert Poor pupper! Glad that you found out and s/he will be on the mend soon. Did they send you home with any FortiFlora to offset the antibiotics effects on its digestive system? GL with your HSG tomorrow! Glad your BW was good, too!
@lund But you did have him...clear the pipes recently, too, right?
@Redpuma119 MH was kind of the same, too. He just didn't understand how the statistics nosedive for chances after 12 months. "SIL and BIL tried for a long time..." Not more than 12 months! So I tried to talk him through it. It took a couple times but it started sinking in. And I think he agreed to appease me. Even at that, he still thought that their initial recommendation was going to be something like a lecture and being sent off to try TI for a while longer. So he was in a little bit of shock when they recommended going to IUI. While we could have done the first IUI last cycle, H needed some adjustment time so it took 1-2 cycles to actually start treatment.
AFM, I'll be moving over to TWW tomorrow. I figure that after tomorrow morning all active trying time is over so...
