Re: TWW Wednesday 9/20

  • Month/Cycle: 4/4

    CD/DPO: 25/11

    Timing: 

    Testing:

    Typical LP Length: 9-11ish

    Rant/Rave: Two raves: 1) I had a dream that my period started...woke up feeling really sad but remembered it wasn't true! 2) I didn't start my period yesterday which means that my LP was not 9 days again like it was last cycle. Woo hoo!

    GTKY: What is one thing you’re glad you tried but would never do again? I'm going to go with the Tower of Terror ride at Disney World. I'm glad I tried it, but I do not like the feeling of dropping from any sort of height. It makes me queasy and light headed and I walked around in a daze for a while afterward. I don't even like watching DH fall from heights in his video games...it makes my stomach lurch! (PS - don't mind me, I'm feeling gif-y today!)

  • Sorry about the BFN @offtoneverland Also, I'm with you on the feeling of falling. I hate it - - even when a car goes down a hill the wrong way, and makes my stomach drop.  

    Sorry about the AF @Augusta108

    @emmasemm FX crossed for you!  Is there anything the RE can do to encourage fertilization?

    Month/Cycle: 2/2

    CD/DPO: 29/11-13?

    Timing: ?

    Testing: BFN again this morning, but my cycle is normally 28 days, so who knows.

    Typical LP Length: 11-13

    Rant/Rave: I'm not out, but still getting BFNs. So who knows. No AF symptons either.  

    CS/Q:

    GTKY: What is one thing you’re glad you tried but would never do again? Eating pineapple and scallops. No thanks.  Also, ziplining. Did it once. Not again.
  • @offtoneverland  love all the GIFs don't you dare apologize for them!

    @Augusta108 sorry to see you go
     
    @emmasemm wow i'm so excited for you! fx to you.  so glads the meds went well because i know that's often an iffy party and now you know.  Relax and have a wonderful day!  Also that GWO course looks amazing and i could never do it--well done!

    @jrm_14 welcome! I feel like i haven't seen you around --but that's probably the whole WTO vs TWW thing.  Enjoy WI and your friend.  I also agree with you Paris was nice but not awe inspiring.  

     @marcus7676 You definitely aren't out, but i am sorry for the BFN.  oh i loved zip-lining!  also were the pineapple and scallops together? or you don't like them individually?  

    Month/Cycle: 18/14

    CD/DPO: 33/13

    Timing:-2

    Testing: no more

    Typical LP Length: 12ish

    Rant/Rave: FF took away my testing, my temp was down again this morning and i have cramps, so i became a realist this morning and didn't even waste a test.  I'm ready for next cycle because i need to ovulate before 10/10--right now FF is predicting 10/9 for O, so i'm nervous. DH travels 10/10-10/12 and then 10/15-10/25.  FX my body ovulates on time.      

    CS/Q: chart in spoiler 

    GTKY: What is one thing you’re glad you tried but would never do again?
    Alaskan cruise--was gorgeous, but don't need to do it again.  
  • @blackhottamales pineapples and scallops are each individually terrible IMO. Trying them together would just be plain awful. I've tried each, no need to do it again! Sorry for the impending AF. 
  • @marcus7676 i love pineapples, but yes pineapples and scallops together would be just plain awful.  
  • *visiting from wto*

    @emmasemm I have my fingers crossed so hard for you and that little egg! Please do keep us updated.
    @blackhottamales Sorry your temps are trending down. :( Fx your O timing works out for next cycle!
    @offtoneverland I absolutely LOVE Tower of Terror! I think they are taking it out at Disneyland (or have already taken it out?) and I'm sad about that. I once got to ride it twice in a row because my friend and I wanted to buy the photo, but it never showed up from our first ride. When we asked, they said someone had done something "un-Disney" in the pic, and let us ride again so we could buy one. :)

    Rant/Rave: Going out for sushi today for lunch with friends! Yay! Work tomorrow  :(

    GTKY: What is one thing you’re glad you tried but would never do again?
    Not actually sure. I've mostly enjoyed the 'things' I've tried/ done. 
    Maybe get married? This one is going so welln so I'm glad I did it - don't want to have to do it again. I think I'll keep him 
    ;) 
  • Hi all, I am back, had our glorious wedding in July and took the summer to relax and settle as a family (I have a 10 y o son so involved some blending!). All good now, and back here!

    CS/Q:

    GTKY: What is one thing you’re glad you tried but would never do again?

    I lived in South America for a year as a volunteer, loved it, but would never do it again, it was hard and often times felt like a thankless task!

  • Whelp CD1 officially now  



  • Wellllll just started red spotting so AF is on her way. Ugh. I know I've only been trying for 4 months, but you guys this TTC thing is SO HARD. How do you not let it consume every portion of your life? I think I really need to make some changes with how I go about this mentally next cycle...any advice?
    I guess on the positive side, I will get to drink lots and lots of alcohol on our upcoming cruise. To continue with the HIMYM gifs:

    Now for you guys (an upside to starting AF is that I get more time to get to know you guys...you all are seriously awesome and I wish I would have joined TTGP sooner):

    @emmasemm So happy that your procedure went well! Good luck! FX so hard for you. What did you do on your lazy day lounging around the house afterward? Also, how did Dourian fruit taste? Was it awful?

    @jrm_14 So glad to see you in TWW finally (just as I'm about to leave...boo)! I seriously cracked up at your HIMYM gif. Good enough! Hahahaha. Have fun in Wisconsin! I loved Paris, but I went there when I was in 11th grade, so it was prime time for teen romance and an obsession with all things French.

    @marcus7676 I hate scallops too! I do like pineapple, but I hate the feeling it leaves in my mouth since it's so acidic. Sorry for the BFN and your abnormally long cycle. Hope you get an answer soon.

    @blackhottamales Glad you enjoyed my gif party! Sorry about impending AF. It's super disappointing. Really hope your body cooperates so you can HIO and catch that egg! What about the Alaskan cruise makes you not want to do it again? I would love to go on one!

    @darkstar42 Yes, they're redoing the Tower of Terror at Disneyland to theme it like Guardians of the Galaxy. Not sure how it's going to be. It's pretty sad they're getting rid of the classic ride, but they're supposed to be keeping the same concept. That's so funny about the "un-Disney" picture! I wonder how often that happens.

    @Mylitta How was your sushi? Love your GTKY...that's a good, unique answer I didn't think of!

    @gene_genie Congrats on your wedding! I hope it went perfectly. :) You have great timing. FX for you!

  • @blackhottamales Don't worry about the poor wording. I edit all day long so by the time I get home I'm like eff it I'm gonna write what I want! Thank you for the tips. I really like your idea and will find something to focus on this cycle. Good luck with your no soda/increasing water intake this month. And I'm of the opinion that everyone deserves to splurge on CD1 so don't feel bad about that!

  • @offtoneverland @blackhottamales. Sorry for CD1 :(  I like the suggestion of changing 1 thing a month.  I struggle with temping consistently and then stress over adding 15 other changes.  

    @emmasemm. P.s. you're brave with the dourian fruit.  Did you say when you'll get an update from RE?

    @Mylitta.  Great GTKY answer <3


    @marcus7676.  MH hatttes pineapple, too.  I personally would eat it every day!!

    @gene_genie.  GL!  Your timing looks Great. Did you get a chance to intro in the newbie thread? :)

    @thshaw. Girrrrrrl, I LOVE ziplining! 



  • @augusta108 @blackhottamales @offtoneverland Sorry for CD1 ladies. Changing one thing is a great way to go forward. I like it! 

    LOVE ziplining! Why won't you do it again @thshaw?

    @emmasemm @offtoneverland  @jrm_14 Thanks guys... I want sure what to write so my default is drier sarcastic type of answers. 

    - ok... that might be hoping a bit far, but yay I'm trying to move out of lurkdom.
    (Also, sushi was great!)
  • I was too busy at work today to bump, so this is a bit late...

    @Augusta108 , @offtoneverland and @blackhottamales I'm so sorry about AF showing up for you ladies! The letdown is real. Hope the drinks help lift your spirits!

    @emmasemm Best of luck with your procedure! I hope those swimmers and egg make some magic happen! Also, you are brave to have tasted Durian! It smells so foul I don't think I could do it.

    Month/Cycle: 3/3

    CD/DPO: 28/11

    Timing: -4, -1, +1

    Testing: Didn't test today after feeling a bit discouraged from two negatives yesterday and day before (even though it was early). My optimism may rise enough to test again tomorrow or just wait to see if AF shows up (she's due on Fri).

    Typical LP Length: 12

    Rant/Rave: Rant: I have broken out with the most giant zit on my chin. It is seriously like the size of Mt Vesuvius and I don't think it's shrinking any time soon. Really pissed at my body for that one. 

    CS/Q: 

    GTKY: What is one thing you’re glad you tried but would never do again? I'm not proud of this one, but I did Ecstasy once when I was 19 and had a great experience, but I made a very conscious decision to never do it again because it was definitely something I didn't want to get into.

  • *visiting from WTO*
    @offtoneverland and @blackhottamales I am so sorry for AF's arrival, but I am looking forward to spending time with you lovely ladies in WTO. <3  ;)  It seems like that is where everyone is right now!  @offtoneverland--I hear you.  I think it has become harder each month, but having the mandatory benched month has lifted my spirits a little bit because I relaxed for a month (as I could not do anything).  I think @blackhottamales has some good suggestions of making little changes each month.  Also, have you every listened to the How to Get Healthy and Pregnant podcast?  I've listened to a few episodes and there was a good one with a guest speaker who was a counselor working with couples TTC.  One piece of advice she mentioned was to plan things that you can look forward to that are not TTC-related.  For example, plan a trip with a friend or sign up to run a race or apply for a new program, etc.

    @jrm_14 Woot woot!  Glad you made it over to TWW, friend. <3  Have fun with your bestie!  Anything fun planned for your visit?

    @emmasemm So excited for you!  Please keep us posted this week on how the fertilization goes. FX!

    @marcus7676 FX for you!
  • @emmasemm Woo hoo!!! This is fantastic news! So so happy to hear it! I'll be lurking the next 24 hours to hear the next update.
