CD: 6
WAYDTGKU: pnv, bbt, I'll try CM and CP today

rave - Amazon is sending it for free, woo!
Another rant (bc why not, it's Monday) - my cold turned into an acute sinus infection and now I'm on antibiotics. Dr said I can take Amoxicillin while TTGP.
CS/Q: since I started temping on the weekend, my "normal" time to temp is funky. Off to search for how to adjust temp for time bc open circles annoy me...
GTKY: We're all WTO... so what's your favorite cocktail/alcoholic beverage? I switch around a lot but I'd have to say red wine, a nice summer-y beer like summer shandy, or a Moscow Mule are my faves right now!
Month/Cycle: 7/7
CD: 16
WAYDTGKU: bbt tracking etc
R/R: ugh I just want to not feel stressed/guilty.
CS/Q: was doing very well on my chart then had too much to drink, had a meltdown and missed a day. My temp shoots up After I drink so ff Tried to give me crosshairs on day 13.... Nope no way that happened
GTKY: We're all WTO... so what's your favorite cocktail/alcoholic beverage? Can't even think about alcohol. Lol
happy Monday!
CD: 22
WAYDTGKU: peeing and staring at all the OPKs
R/R: First night of work is out of the way. I am taking care of a friend's cat while she is out of town. I'm hoping she will come out at some point this week.

@thatcrazyauntie - I hear you there! So many!!
@pebbledam - Ciders are so good! There's a fantastic cidery in Milwaukee that I can't want to go back to in September!
------------------------
Month/Cycle: 3/3
CD: 7
WAYDTGKU: bd, pnv, okt (in a couple of days), btt
R/R: Rave: had such a good weekend! It was nice to see all my friends I don't see on a daily basis and have a good time! Rant: Super tired today due to lack of sleep, but I'll push through!
CS/Q: Nope, there's not much to question yet. Missed btt 2 days this weekend because we were up late and I wouldn't have gotten enough sleep.
GTKY: We're all WTO... so what's your favorite cocktail/alcoholic beverage? I L-O-V-E Nitro Milk Stout and a good old fashioned!

CD: 3
WAYDTGKU: Sleeping with the enemy
R/R: Wellllllll. You guys know I've been doing chiropractic? I had my first ever 28 day cycle! Not great because I was at the lake and ruined a brand new pair of underwear because it was a week "early" but I'm kind of excited?
CS/Q:
GTKY: We're all WTO... so what's your favorite cocktail/alcoholic beverage?
Malibu rum and rootbeer. Or boozy milkshakes. Yum.
Married: 04/05/15
TTC since: 02/16/16
@thatcrazyauntie So sorry about your rough week. Glad you are back. Creepy internet hugs.
@pebbledam I've actually never tried ciders! Do you have a favorite?
@Dilynne How was your time at the lake? And yay for a 28 day cycle. I had my first 29 day cycle last month...and while I was a little bummed to get AF, but I was stoked for a shorter cycle.
Month/Cycle: 4/4
CD: 4
WAYDTGKU: waiting right now...but will do charting (bbt, cm), preseed, thinking about adding green tea and pom juice to the mix because why not?!
R/R: (Rant): Ate way too much junk and drank way too much this weekend. (I was honestly feeling sad about AF arriving and just indulged, so hoping to get back on track this week).
(Rave): I have a few new recipes I want to try this week.
CS/Q:
GTKY: We're all WTO... so what's your favorite cocktail/alcoholic beverage?
Homemade margaritas in the summer!
Month/Cycle: 5/5
CD: 1... womp womp
WAYDTGKU: bbt, prenatals. I might start worshiping some fertility gods soon, any suggestions?
R/R: rant... just feeling down, angry, discouraged, but guilty for having those feelings.
rave... I had pound cake for breakfast. This is why I'm overweight.
CS/Q:
GTKY: We're all WTO... so what's your favorite cocktail/alcoholic beverage?
meh... I'm a bad Wisconsinite, I'm just not super into drinking. I'll try new wines, especially when eating out. An occasional margarita. But I don't have that one signature drink that I always get.
Married April 1st 2017
DS #1: May 2009
DS #2: Jan 2012
@thatcrazyauntie - I am in a mom group on FB that I truly love. I am in charge of the TTC thread and this past week 4 people on it announced their pregnancy and I think almost all of them on their first try. So..... I feel you, girl.
Month/Cycle: 4/3
CD: 20
WAYDTGKU: BBT, PNV, CoQ10, Sex EOD, CM, experimenting with cervical position but every day it feels the freaking same to me, green tea and RRL tea, and Metformin
R/R: Last full week at home before the start of school. I am already swamped with so much to do to prepare for the new school year and I can't believe it's about to be year 11. Anyone else a teacher????
CS/Q: EWCM last night! Temp drop today. Promising, right??? I can't do OPKs because I have PCOS and get pretty much consistent positives.
GTKY: We're all WTO... so what's your favorite cocktail/alcoholic beverage?
Honestly I don't drink often but when I do I am quite particular. I love German beer and sweet wines.
DH: 30
TTC #2 Since April 2017
@thatcrazyauntie It sounds like you had a rough week last week. Hugs. I'm sorry you are feeling stressed and guilty, what are you feeling guilty about?
@pebbledam I hope the cat comes out for you. I am the owner of a very shy cat who doesn't come out if she hears voices other than mine or MH's in the house, but when I have been gone for more than a couple days her cat sitters have always said she eventually comes out and is very friendly.
@ajsanders-2 I love a good Old Fashioned!
@Dilynne Yay! So excited for your cycle change! That is awesome that the chiropractor is helping! Also, have you tried those alcoholic root beers? Delicious. I love root beer.
***
Month/Cycle: 2/2 AL
CD: 6
WAYDTGKU: PNV, Ubiquinol, HIO, pre-seed, acupuncture, BBT, OPK, checking CM
R/R: Didn't get as much done this weekend as I would have liked but we had friends over for dinner Saturday and they had a great time. Feeling optimistic about this cycle for a BSC crazy reason - my ovaries take turns O'ing and it's Lefty's turn this month. I believe in you, Lefty.
CS/Q: Nope, not much to see there yet.
GTKY: We're all WTO... so what's your favorite cocktail/alcoholic beverage? Bourbon, neat. This time of year I also do like a good gin and tonic.
@thatcrazyauntie - I'm sorry last week was so rough for you. I hope this week is better
@pebbledam - I hope the cat comes out. I always feel bad when I am watching someone's cat and I never see them
@ajsanders-2 - I'm glad you had a great weekend. I ope it carries over and you have a great week too!
@Dilynne - That sucks that she caught you unprepared - I hate when that happens. I hope you were able to still have lake anyways
@dukestar5 - What recipes are you going to be trying?
@AliW220 - Sorry about CD 1
@garnetandgoldgrace - I have 2 more weeks before I had back but I am already working on stuff. This will be year 13 for me. I hope you are able to relax some this week before starting back.
@zamora_spin - The weekends are never long enough!
Month/Cycle: 1/1
CD: 11
WAYDTGKU: BBT, CM, and PNV
R/R: Rant: I have to go to the dentist today
CS/Q:
GTKY: We're all WTO... so what's your favorite cocktail/alcoholic beverage? I like Shirley Temples with vanilla vodka
@thatcrazyauntie I'm so sorry that last week was a rough one for you. Hugs. I hope that this week has you feeling a little lighter.
@pebbledam I mean, have those CHs on your chart been drinking any of those ciders?? Sorry for all the neg OPKs. FX you get a positive soon. Hugs friend!
@dukestar5 Hey CD twin! I'm with you on indulging and drinking too much this weekend.
@AliW220 Sorry for CD1 and that you are feeling down. Don't you dare guilt yourself for feeling sad or having a rough day or few days. It happens to everyone. Big hugs. Try to give yourself some love today.
Month/Cycle: 5/5 4AL
CD: 4
WAYDTGKU: WFAF to GTFO
R/R: I got a shower this morning, blow dried my hair, and put on a cute outfit. Feeling awesome! I'm also going to visit my dad at his new house near us today. He hasn't sold his old one yet, but he's coming down to clean and put up his mailbox and stuff. No rants.
CS/Q:
GTKY: We're all WTO... so what's your favorite cocktail/alcoholic beverage?
Wine- really anything that isn't too sweet. I don't like moscato.
@cards10 Amazon has great customer service, usually. Glad they are sending you a new one!
<---- How I feel about stouts. MH loves them. 
@thatcrazyauntie Awkward side hug
@pebbledam I second ciders!
@ajsanders-2
@dilynne Yay for the 28 day cycle! We have an ice cream shop that does boozy ice cream and a coffee shop that does boozy coffee. Milkshakes sound good, too!
@dukestar5 Ohhhh, what recipes are you going to be making?
@aliw220 Sorry about feeling all the feelings
@garnetandgoldgrace FX for you! Talk to me about CoQ10- do you take that or the ubiquinol form?
@Zamora_spin Go, Lefty, Go! Weekends should have an extra day.
@kbamomma33 A good shower, outfit, and hair day makes it easier to face to world. Another +1 for too much consumed this weekend.
----
Month/Cycle: 1/2
CD: 4
WAYDTGKU: PNV, mindful diet & exercise, CM, OPKs when time, Green Tea
R/R: Woot, another day to work on time. I should seriously not be as proud of myself as I am about this, but mornings are struggles.
I don't use too many chemicals in our house, though yesterday, I did spray for bugs. I forgot that cats are highly susceptible to those chemicals. In the night, my kitten came in and sneezed legit over 20 times and was lethargic, which is not like her, even in the night. I was super anxious I had hurt her and she was going to die. So, sleep deprived today. She's fine this morning
GTKY: Wheat beer, ciders, champagne
@thatcrazyauntie I'm sorry you're feeling stressed and guilty! Go easy on yourself
@pebbledam what's your favorite cider?
@ajsanders-2 sounds like a good reason to be tired. Maybe you'll have time to squeeze in a nap?
@Dilynne yay for a 28 day cycle!!
@dukestar5 ooh. What new recipes??
@AliW220 so sorry about cd1!
@garnetandgoldgrace I have this week and next week still. But next week will be spent being depressed that summers over. I always get a panicky feeling
@zamora_spin lets go lefty!!
@glitzandglitter this will be my 13th year teaching too
@kbamomma33 wine is the only wine I like lol
Month/Cycle: 12/8 (6/3 AL)
CD: 28
WAYDTGKU: PNVs, Ubiquinol, opks, temping
R/R: I got a 4 miler in today and finally felt good about my pace and how I felt during it. Probably due to the fact that at mile 2, it started pouring! I hate the rain so I sped up to get home but it cooled my down and kept my mind off how I was dying so it helped. (It's never rained in the morning during my vacations here. But it was raining yesterday so I postponed my run. Didn't even think to check the weather for today. )
CS/Q:
GTKY: We're all WTO... so what's your favorite cocktail/alcoholic beverage? A BBC (Baileys, Banana, Colada)
CD: 3
WAYDTGKU: Prenatal, B-complex, red raspberry leaf, epo before O, BBT, CM tracking, finger crossing
R/R: Rant: I stopped using my usual acne cream for ttc, and I'm broken our right now.
Rave: DH and I have been in a show
hole, but we just stared watching "Elementary" and it's great and there are like 150 episodes.
CS/Q: Nothing yet
GTKY: We're all WTO... so what's your favorite cocktail/alcoholic beverage?
Whisky Sour (from scratch, not sour mix)
@kbamomma33 a no-rant day is a good day! I've heard that epo can speed up af, idk if thats true but I tried it and I feel like she gtfo-s a little sooner now.
@glitzandglitter nooo! I'm so scared of the dentist, good luck. Think of it as anorher ttc box checked off. Are you freaked out by the dentist?
@zamora_spin Godspeed Lefty!
@garnetandgoldgrace I'm a teacher too! I'm switching from 5th grade to 3rd this year, what grade do you teach?
@AliW220 No suggestions for fertility goddesses in particular, but when we went TTC I started leaving bits of food on a raised spot in the garden as a kind of 'offering' just in case. It's absolutely the most BSC thing I do, but it makes me feel like I'm doing something, at least.
@dukestar5 sorry about not feeling well,I just did the same thing when AF showed. It's easy to indulge!
@thatcrazyauntie sorry for the stress and resulting funky CH. At least you know enough about yourself and your cycle that you know to keep HIO
@ajsanders-2 oh I love me an old fashioned too! I can never make them the right way myself though
@Dilynne sorry for the new cycle but good it seems to be cooperating more
@dukestar5 Amazon is sending an entire new bbt, not just the battery, which is great. A few people have said they start temping late in the cycle. I might still temp with the new one then
@kbamomma33 thanks, I think you've all convinced me CD8 is ok. Yes, I searched for the rate... 0.1* warmer for each 30 mins earlier? I entered that in FF and kept the original in a comment. But FF hates me and won't get rid of my open circle for being "late" but really at normal time today. Oh well, I know. And it was only 20 and 40 minutes off so I think from my search I found that's not far off. And glad you're having a cute day
@AliW220 sorry for CD1
@garnetandgoldgrace my last chart I temped I noticed my bbt was favoring certain temps. I had some variation and saw a clear temp shift but about half my temps were the same two values. So it's usable but I wanted something a little more sensitive and reliable. And wow, school starts already for you? I don't think we start here in MI until the end of august.
@zamora_spin haha I'll help you cheer on lefty too! You caaaan dooo iiiit!
@Dilynne - Mmmm, boozy milkshakes!
@dukestar5 - Woodchucks are my go-to, but I also like Stella's if I can find it on tap. Pineapple and pear ciders are also delish!
@AliW220 - So sorry for CD1 and all the ugly feels that come with it. *hugs*
@zamora_spin - I think after taking care of this cat for about 2 years (just when her mom goes out of town), she is finally used to me! She let me pet her and everything!! And c'mon Lefty!!
@kbamomma33 - My FF is freaking drunk! No rants on a Monday!? That's awesome!

@thatcrazyauntie Yeah... there have been lots of that in my life as well... thats one of the reasons im not on FB right now... just all around better for my state of mind
@pebbledam I have terrible opk eyes! lol
@ajsanders-2 Its definitely a tired monday for me too!
@Dilynne I love chiropractic!!
@dukestar5 Yay for too much junk! I too indulged, but have begun my drying out process today!
@AliW220 If you find a functional fertility god, please let us all know!!
@garnetandgoldgrace It can take a couple months to really get a handle on CP. It feels the same until it doesnt then its like OH!! I say just keep checking and noting. You can always go back and edit your notes.
@zamora_spin I love both bourbon and gin! (and scotch and whiskey! lol i guess i love it all!!)
@glitzandglitter UGH! hate the dentist.
CD: 4
WAYDTGKU: nothing... well, waiting for my IVF cycle hopefully in August
R/R: All Raves.... had a wonderful birthday weekend. okay one rant... this website runs SO slow! Makes it so hard to post
CS/Q: nope
GTKY: We're all WTO... so what's your favorite cocktail/alcoholic beverage? Anything involving champagne
@paleoprincess I have a huge compost pile... does that count?
Thanks for all the support ladies.

@thatcrazyauntie *hugs* I know the feeling. So many people have announced pregnancies lately that it's driving me nuts.
@pebbledam Good luck with the kitty! I have a super shy kitty and the friends who feed him never see him unless they're actually staying at our house for at least a few days.
@ajsanders-2 Glad you had such a good weekend!
@Dilynne Yay for the short cycle!
@dukestar5 Sounds like you and I had the same, overindulgent weekend!
@AliW220 Sorry about cd1.
@glitzandglitter An alcoholic Shirley Temple sounds awesome!
@kbamomma33 Glad your day is off to such a good start!
------------------------------
Month/Cycle: 5/6
CD: 5
WAYDTGKU: temps, cm, opks
R/R: Each month it's taking me longer to bounce back from the disappointment of cd1. I just can't seem to get motivated, which is a problem because in summer I have to set my own deadlines to get research and papers done. Any coping strategies that work for you ladies? *tw* I'm also kind of dreading the school year starting up again, as three co-workers have just had babies.*end tw*
CS/Q: For those who use ubiquinol, where do you buy it/is there a specific brand you'd recommend?
GTKY: We're all WTO... so what's your favorite cocktail/alcoholic beverage? You all mentioned many of my favorites! I love moscow mules, cider (@dukestar5 One of my favorite ciders is Strongbow, but it can be difficult to find in the U.S.! Try a British pub, if there's one near you. Angry Orchard is also tasty.), and also a summer drink from southern Spain that sounds weird but is good - tinto de verano. It's red wine mixed with sparkling lemonade.
@dragonette505 Happy birthday!
@pebbledam Ciders are the best!
@Dilynne Yay for the 28 day cycle! Fx it stays that way!
@garnetandgoldgrace We report back next week, too. Boo! What day do the kids start back for you?
@glitzandglitter I hate going to the dentist probably more than any adult has the right to. Haha. GL!
@jrm_14 Glad your cat is okay! I would have been freaked out, too!
@dragonette505 Glad you had a nice weekend! And yes, this website is driving me crazy!
@AliW220 Sorry about CD1. Don't feel guilty for having those feelings, we've all been there. Hugs!
@kbamomma33 It's always such a nice feeling when you take a little extra time on yourself in the morning!
Month/Cycle: 4/2
CD: 11
WAYDTGKU: Right now mostly just HIO and praying that I actually ovulate.
R/R: This is my last week of freedom before teachers have to report back, so I'm trying to really enjoy it. I let myself sleep in today, so that was nice.
CS/Q: Nope
GTKY: We're all WTO... so what's your favorite cocktail/alcoholic beverage? There are so many to choose from...probably either wine, mojitos, or an old fashioned with no cherries.
Married: 10/2013
TTC #1 Since: 02/2017
CD: 2
WAYDTGKU: Temping, OPKs, prenatals
R/R: Rave- I went to the Nordstrom anniversary sale yesterday and got some cute clothes.
CS/Q: nothing to see yet.
GTKY: We're all WTO... so what's your favorite cocktail/alcoholic beverage? My favorite cocktail is a lemon drop, but I also really enjoy Chardonnay and Pinot noir.
@cards10 feel better!
@thatcrazyauntie big hugs!
@pebbledam what's your favorite cider?
@ajsanders-2 your weekend sounds so nice!
@Dilynne that's great that the chiro is helping
@dukestar5 I was thinking about adding green tea and Pom juice this month, too.
@garnetandgoldgrace I'm a teacher. I go back a week from today I'm also starting my 11th year!
@zamora_spin your dinner sounds nice!
@glitzandglitter I hate the dentist, too. Good luck!
@aliw220 sorry about CD 1
@kbamomma33 I love your rave! That's such a nice way to start your day.
@jrm_14 yum, Champagne!
@purplg8r jealous of your running. I've been slacking on vacation.
@paleoprincess DH has a whiskey sour with homemade sour last week and he said it was the best.
@dragonette505 happy birthday!
@darkstar42 I have to make a list and I try to get one thing done a day that I don't really want to do. When I was working on my thesis, I made myself write two pages a day on summer break before I did anything else.
@cards10 yum I also love Moscow Mules!
@thatcrazyauntie sorry for the rough week! I'm also struggling after learning my teenage nephew KO'd his girlfriend
@AliW220 sorry about CD1. I'm right there with ya...
CD: 1
WAYDTGKU: every month at cd 1 I question this... I have been consistently OPK, PNV... Pom juice, green tea and pineapple. I think charting would make me even more anxious but just feeling frustrated like I'm not doing enough... bleh.
R/R: above turned into my rant... BUT today I get a SPA DAY and I literally couldn't be more excited... hubby arranged this for my bday (last week) gift.
CS/Q:
GTKY: We're all WTO... so what's your favorite cocktail/alcoholic beverage? Usually red wine, but in the heat, some rosé or a Moscow mule are my go-tos. I had an AMAZING blood orange Paloma last week I'd love to replicate.
happy Monday all...
@thatcrazyauntie So sorry for the rough week. **Creepy internet hugs**
@pebbledam I love ciders! I go back to nights on Friday, but I'm days this week. Not looking forward to the shift.
@ajsanders-2 Yay for the great weekend with friends!
@Dilynne Boo for ruined pants. I have to try Malibu and Rootbeer. That sounds really good.
@dukestar5 You'll have to share any of the recipes that worked out for you! I'm always looking for new things to cook. We get into kind of a rut in our house occasionally.
@AliW220 Boo for CD1. Creepy internet hugs for you too!
@garnetandgoldgrace EWCM! So promising!
@zamora_spin Hah, it's lefty's turn for me too. Already getting the pains though it's super early.
@kbamomma33 I always feel so accomplished when I get up, put on makeup, do my hair and put on real clothes. It's a great feeling. I saw this while sitting in panera (supposed to be doing online continuing ed) dressed in work-out clothes with no makeup and a pony tail.
@jrm_14 Poor kitten. I'm glad she's doing better this morning. That must have been a rough night for you.
@purplg8r "wine is the only wine I like" literally made me start laughing hysterically out loud. Me too. Me too.
@paleoprincess My face is so broken out too because I'm trying to switch to more natural products. If you find something good for acne prone skin, will you let me know? Acne and grey hairs at the same time is one of fate's more crueler jokes.
@dragonette505 Happy belated birthday!
@darkstar42 I use the "Now" brand only because I use it for other supplements and they've always seemed high quality: https://smile.amazon.com/NOW-Ubiquinol-100-120-Softgels/dp/B00KHQJDWS/ref=sr_1_1_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1500909261&sr=8-1&keywords=now+ubiquinol+100+mg
@Cricket648 Yay for a nice sleep in. That's the best.
~~~~~~
Month/Cycle: 5/3
CD: 11
WAYDTGKU: PNV, Folate, Ubiquinol, DHA, RRL, Pom Juice, CM, temping (via Ava), Preseed, HIO
R/R: Rant - I'm questioning the sleep analysis on Ava. It says I slept 8 hours straight through last night, but I'd say it was more like 6-7 hours in 2-3 hr blocks. Oh well. I'm transferring the data to FF anyway and marked it as sleep deprived.
CS/Q: Huge temp spike this morning but pretty sure that's due to the sleep deprivation plus mojito that I had while watching GOT.
GTKY: We're all WTO... so what's your favorite cocktail/alcoholic beverage? Mojito!
Married DH: 2013
DD: Dec 2015
BFP 8/14/17 --> Due 4/27/2018
Month/Cycle: 10
CD: 14
WAYDTGKU: opks, bbt, pnv, cm, sex, and probably something else i'm forgetting at the moment
R/R: got an unexpected positive opk today, yesterday's was an almost non-existent line and today blazing positive. I usually O around CD 17, so was not prepared for that. Looks like we will have to do ED in the FW this cycle.
CS/Q:
GTKY: We're all WTO... so what's your favorite cocktail/alcoholic beverage?
margarita on the rocks with salt, DH just informed me that today is national Tequila day...
--------------------------------------------------------------
@cards10 ugh sorry to hear about the sinus infection. they are miserable. Hoping the meds help!
@thatcrazyauntie sorry you're having a tough time right now. I don't know if you're seeing things on social media, but a lot of ladies here have either cut it out completely or have taken time off. I hope you have a better week
@pebbledam I hope FF gets its act together for you!
@Dilynne way to find the silver lining! I hope things are getting better for you
@AliW220 sorry to hear you're feeling down. sorry about CD1 they're never easy.
@garnetandgoldgrace those signs do sound promising. I can't believe you have to go back already. I guess i just have this misconception that teachers get 3 months off.
@zamora_spin Bourbon! wow, I've tried to like I just can't do it. I hope Lefty does it for you!
@kbamomma33 good for you! I'm glad to hear that you took sometime for yourself and you're making it a good day!
@jrm_14 I say find a success where you can. if making it to work on time is a goal then by all means congratulate yourself for achieving it!
@purplg8r I am always inspired by your dedication to running
@dragonette505 Happy Birthday!
@darkstar42 & @dukestar5 first y'all joined in the same week and I still have trouble remembering who has which number lol. second, i LOVED Strongbow (@pebbledam have you had it?) it is getting easier to find now, but years ago I had to literally go to a liquor store in a different state to find it.
@Cricket648 FX you have O this cycle.
@fishsticks-n-custard I'm very interested in your Ava journey thanks for sharing. I can totally related to the breakouts and grey hair. ah the benefits of your 30s

"Some days are diamonds, some days are rocks,
some doors are open, some roads are blocked"
@thatcrazyauntie I'm sorry, it's always so hard watch other people have those moments. it's not that you aren't happy for them--you just want the same thing. **creepy internet hugs to you**
@pebbledam mmmm...cider!
@ajsanders-2 friend time is so great! sounds like a nice weekend.
@dilynne Love your WAYDTGKU. That's exciting about your shorter cycle, and makes me want to go to a chiropractor.
@dukestar5 I agree--i'm thinking about adding green tea too because like you said "why not"?
@AliW220 sorry for CD1.
@garnetandgoldgrace fx O! I have PCOS too and the metformin has helped reduce my LH surges and last month I had my first positive OPK. have you tried since starting metformin?
@zamora_spin haha--that's hilarious about your ovaries! Go LEFTY!!
@glitzandglitter boo for dentists
@kbamomma33 oh i love when i take the extra time to look cute it's such a confidence builder. I'll have to do that tomorrow.
@jrm_14 i'm so glad your kitty is ok!
@purplg8r are you training for a run or do you just try to run most mornings? (or maybe it's both?)
@paleoprincess I hate all the acne now while TTC - i feel like a teenager.
@dragonette505 Happy belated birthday!
@darkstar42 My newest coping is less social media--i've started trying to limit my FB/Instagram and just adding phone calls or texts with close friends to stay in touch. I think social media affects my mood more than i realize.
@cricket648 have fun HIO!
@mileswithmyles i was at Nordstrom Rack yesterday! I love shopping but my bank account isn't such a fan...
@hollieileen oh my gosh-have fun at SPA DAY!
wholly tagging! busy WTO this morning!
----------------------------------------------------------------
Month/Cycle: 13
CD: 5
WAYDTGKU: PNV, Metformin, vitex, sex, more exercise.
R/R: Rave: count down to vacation that starts on Saturday! Rant: work before vacation is always stressful.
CS/Q: n/a
GTKY: We're all WTO... so what's your favorite cocktail/alcoholic beverage? I love margaritas--frozen with salt is best (can we say adult slushie?) or on the rocks is great too.
@cards10That sucks that you BBT is coming so late. And I've always wanted to try a Moscow Mule.
@thatcrazyauntie I'm sorry you are having a hard time with people IRL, you don't need to apologize, we've all been there.
@pebbledam I stare at my OPKs for way too long too.
@ajsanders-2 Yay for awesome weekends with friends!
@Dilynne Yay for a 28 day cycle!!
@dukestar5 Feel free to share the new recipes you are trying this week, I could really use some new ones.
@AliW220 I'm sorry you are having a hard time **creepy internet hugs**
@garnetandgoldgrace Good luck during this last week before school!
@zamora_spin FX this is your month!
@glitzandglitter I hope things go smoothly for you at the dentist!
@kbamomma33 Sometimes taking some extra time in the morning to prepare really makes the day better.
@jrm_14 I rarely make it to work on time, luckily my boss doesn't care so I count it as a perk of the job. haha!
@purplg8r Sounds like a good run, minus the rain.
@paleoprincess I really like Elementary, but my DH wouldn't watch it with me.
@dragonette505 Happy belated birthday!
@darkstar42 I'm sorry you feel this way. I find it helps to schedule a lot of stuff around CD1, such as going to the movies, working on my house, or taking a day trip somewhere.
@Cricket648 FX you O soon!
@mileswithmyles Yay for getting sute clothes on sale!
@hollieileen Enjoy your spa day!!
@hollieileen one of the babies born was to my 20 yr old cousin who doesn't have a job! Neither does her hubs.
@zamora_spin feeling guilty because I don't want to put to much pressure on my fiancé during the FW to hio a lot. I'm sure I'm over analyzing this and he seems fine but I'm scared of being too tunnel vision.
lesson learned here is that I kept a lot inside over the last few weeks because I did t want to admit my struggles.... When I should have just confided in my man... He is amazing.
Thanks again for your support chicas!
@mileswithmyles Yay for shopping. I def dropped some dollars this weekend and trying to finish off my bday shopping
@hollieileen Happy Bday to you too! Mine was Sat! Awesome you are getting a spa day!
@fishsticks-n-custard Hmmmm... my watch app will tell me when my sleep was disturbed (sleep pulse) but i guess your device is doing more so maybe its not as specific about that?
@darkstar42 I use thorne research co Q 10 or sometimes fertility nutraceuticles (more expensive) because the dose is easier to take (just three pill instead of a bunch)
@Avrilmai yay for blazing positives!
@Steph5454 OOO where are you going on vaca
