CS/Q: starting to get impatient waiting for O. My cycles seems to be getting progressively longer each month since I went off BC in June. I've started to supplement Wondfos with the CBAD and I'm getting a lot of "close but no cigar" results. So my body seems to be gearing up but it's a really gradual increase.
GTKY: What is your favorite pizza topping?
Almost all of them (no anchovies or pineapple). My favorite combo is mushroom, sausage and olives.
@izza2 Double yay for Friday! Any fun plans for the weekend? @nimmle I'm sorry for the longer wait for O. I've found my cycles what somewhat done the opposite since getting off BC. I've been tracking/temping longer than we've been trying and I used to O closer to CD20/21, and now it's moved to around CD17/18. Our bodies are so fascinating and not always as predictable as we would like. (P.S. I am also using the cheapies and the CB this cycle--hoping to get a clear confirmation!) @ChloandCoco Glad your pup is feeling better! I hope the work day passes quickly for you. Any fun plans?

It's also dsd weekend so get to leave work early to pick her up.

GTKY: What is your favorite pizza topping? Ooo this is a GTKY questions I 110% support! My normal "go-to" is classic cheese & pepperoni, but I also enjoy a good macaroni & cheese pizza (Ian's pizza is the BEST!), love me a good Hawaiian, and I have dreams of the white pizza with spinach we used to get when I was a kid (grew up in NJ). #pizza4lyfe

@izza2 That is a very classic pizza combo. @nimmle I wouldn't worry about it getting longer as long as you are O'ing reliably. It might just be that you have longer cycles and your cycles are getting back to "normal". Do you notice some cycles are longer than others in any pattern?

Rant: I am supposed to go in for CD3 bw and a u/s today but AF didn't truly start until last night (was supposed to come Wednesday). Have to call this am and find out if they want me to come in today or wait until Monday. At least AF is here now. Rave: Ladies wine night this Saturday and I can wine it up! This time it is Bourdeaux region night.

R/R: So glad it's Friday!! Probably going to take off early today so I can take DH to his follow-up and PT appointments (his dad could take him, but I think I just want a good reason to leave early...). Finished my morning workout! I'm trying to rant less today since that is all I did yesterday.
CS/Q: Pretty sure today is O, based on CM/OPK. Might try to HIO again for fun
GTKY: What is your favorite pizza topping? I will eat pretty much everything except mushroom or olives. If I am making homemade pizza I would say italian sausage. If I am getting delivery probably Hawaiian. - Yes I love pineapple on my pizza

Coming back for more tags @lurvleybunchococonuts I'm sorry about the timing! Any way you can surprise YH later? Maybe a little fun dress up to get him in the mood? (Also, I hope you enjoy your weekend and time with dsd. Any fun plans)? @zamora_spin Your ladies' wine night sounds like a lot of fun. Do you go to a local winery or host it at someone's house? Also, keep us posted on your bw. @MrsMiller8588 Way to get in your workout. You've been doing great! Hope DH's appointments go well.
@nimmle Sorry you're body is taking longer this cycle. It can be super frustrating to just be waiting around. Glad the CBAD's are giving you some insight.
@chloandcoco Glad your dog is feeling better just in time for the weekend!
@dukestar5 I'm seriously impressed by your morning runs. Do you go running on trails or at the gym?
@lurvleybunchococonuts Assuming you O'd yesterday/last night that still looks like pretty good timing! I'm with your H, I value sleep above all else haha.
@zamora_spin Your wine nights sound amazing. Love that they're region based! How did you get that started?
@MrsMiller8588 That seems like a good reason to leave work early. Also impressed by your morning workout! You ladies are inspiring me today.
@nimmle@izza2 Hooray for Friday! This week has been sooooo long. @nimmle Sorry about your delayed O. That's frustrating. FX it happens for you soon. Keep HIO @ChloandCoco So glad your dog is feeling better. @dukestar5 Look at you go with your 10 mile run! I'm impressed. *TW-child* DH and I used to run regularly before we had DD. It's so hard to keep up with it now though! *End TW* @lurvleybunchococonuts So sorry about the failed HIO. Would it help any if you surprised him with some sexy lingerie? I'm sure you've already thought of all that though. Hope you can convince him tonight. Also, macaroni and cheese pizza?! Yum!!!! @zamora_spin Hope you can figure out your appointment. Ladies wine night sounds like a blast! Have fun! @MrsMiller8588 Good for you for doing your morning workout! Yeah!

R/R: Friday!!!! I haven't been feeling motivated at all this week. Looking forward to tonight so I can drink a beer and play Kingdom Hearts!

GTKY: What is your favorite pizza topping? Pepperoni with green peppers. Oooh another combo I love from a local pizzeria is ricotta with meatballs. Delicious! Now I want pizza for dinner tonight.
@ChloandCoco So glad to hear that your dog is feeling better!
@dukestar5 10 miles on a Friday morning? You rock star you!
@lurvleybunchofcoconuts Damn those men! When we started TTC MH specifically said that there would never be a time that he would not be up to hio. HA!! Lies I tell you, lies!! Hope that you get to hio tonight. I love a good spinach and goat cheese pizza too.
@zamora_spin Hope you get an answer on when to go in for bw. I think I may do a lot of work from home in my pj's too this weekend.
@MrsMiller8588 Get outta of there early! I would absolutely be using that excuse to get out too. Hope his appointment goes well. How has his recovery been so far?
@ChloandCoco So glad that your dog is finally starting to feel better! Just in time for the weekend.
@dukestar5 Suuuper impressed by your 10 mile run. I can barely make it 3.
@lurvleybunchococonuts If you can't tell, I 100% chose this GTKY because I'm craving Pizza. My hubby is boring and only likes cheese pizza. He will eat mushroom if he's feeling fancy. But I love lots of toppings on my Pizza. Also I see you Jersey girl! Native NYer myself, but now live in Jersey.
@zamora_spin Sorry that you are back here. Huge fan of working in PJs. Boo to having to work at all, but at least you can be at home.
@MrsMiller8588 Yay for getting up early. Your GTKY answer is so funny because I am the total opposite. Love mushrooms and olives, but hate Pineapple.
@Josie22 Yay for a get away! I'm sorry about your temp drop today. It's possible you didn't O, but hopefully it's a fluke and it pops up again. Was it colder in your bedroom last night?
@nimmle No...it was like normal. My body faked me out last cycle. Nothing aligned together. I have a feeling it's doing it again. Oh well. Only time will tell. Hope you O yourself soon! Crazy bodies...
@SkilledSailor No, nothing. They will head back to TCI on Sunday to evaluate damages and by hearing reports, likely end up going to Dominica to help out there as well. Realistically I likely wont see him until mid-November.
@SkilledSailor@dukestar5@offtoneverland Wine night was started by a friend here in town. We do it every other month and she picks a region and hosts at her house. Everyone buys at least one bottle from that region and brings some light food (an app/finger food/salad). This will be the third one and it's always a nice time. It's a good way to get to know folks better, we've had a different mix of people each time. @dukestar5 Way to go on the run! @ChloandCoco Glad your pupper is recovering. @lurvleybunchococonuts I hope YH changes his tune and you HIO tonight afterall. @josie12367 I'm sorry you're having a wonky cycle. I hope you O soon.
My appt did get moved as they are wanting to count today as CD1. Not a huge deal just annoyed at my body for not cooperating.
HAPPY FIRST OFFICIAL DAY OF FALL! <<me @izza2 Happy friday! @nimmle sorry your cycle is getting longer. @ChloandCoco glad your pup is feeling better! @dukestar5 I seriously cannot fathom going for a 10 mile run let alone before the sun even comes up. Mad props. @lurvleybunchococonuts LOVE Ian's mac and cheese pizza! Or really anything from Ian's @zamora_spin sorry about the BW confusion. I know @darkstar42 just had hers done and had a similar question about the CD3 timing @MrsMiller8588 def use the excuse to leave work early! and yay for HIO for fun! @SkilledSailor is it a fun busy weekend? What do you have planned? @josie12367 have fun on your mini getaway! Sorry about that stubborn O! @Stargazer1lily seems like more people are for pineapple than I thought! @offtoneverland ricotta and meatballs sounds fantastic @nitnat007 sorry about YH but its so awesome how much he is doing to help

R/R: rant- high waist jeans are the worst, like literal 1980's torture devices. I don't know why I bought these and why I continue to wear them but I will be in agony at my desk all day. rave- FRI-YAY!
CS/Q: O may have happened yesterday but I'm not sure. I had the tiniest bit of EWCM yesterday morning but it went back to creamy for most of the day. All -OPK's so I might stick around here for a bit longer to see if the OPK's start getting darker. I am now the BSC TTC lady that has kept all her OPK's and labeled them with date and time so I can see the progression. Chart in spoiler:
GTKY: What is your favorite pizza topping? I love black olive, green pepper and pepperoni pizza. Or Hawaiian. DH does not like most of those things so I'm usually stuck with pepperoni, sausage and bacon (not a bad choice but a lot of meat)

@krashke From your temps I don't think you have Od yet. Also as a rule of thumb you should chart your most fertile CM of the day, even if it isn't the most prominent. So if you saw EWCM yesterday I would chart that. You have awesome timing! Hope you are able to keep it up until you confirm O!

@MrsMiller8588 I will change the CM from yesterday. I haven't been able to check it today yet because we BD'd this morning so I probs wouldn't be able to tell. I hope we can keep HIO too! I feel like we have been lied too. People are all like "lets make a baby" and then they have this super sweet, romantic BD. Whereas I'm like "babe I can't she just cant take it anymore"

@nitnat007 Oh man, I'm sorry. I don't suppose you have any of his sperm frozen in the freezer? Jk...kinda. But really, that sucks. I hope it ends up being much sooner.
@zamora_spin I'm loving the sound of that wine night. I've been wanting to start something like that for awhile but am worried I'd end up cleaning my whole house and no one would show up. Sorry your body didn't cooperate with you.
@krashke It's my birthday weekend! We have lunch with the in-laws (meh), then drinks with a bestie, then going to an NFL game on Sunday (my birthday request). To say I'm distracted from work right now would be an understatement. Sorry to hear you're on the O struggle bus too.
@zamora_spin it seems that they are just progressively getting longer. Since I got off BC in June my cycles went from 27 to 32 to 36. On my last 36 day cycle I O'ed on day 18 according to my temps. It's CD 19 and still nothing. I did notice I had a significant patch of EWCM last cycle after I O'ed on CD23 so it's entirely possible I O'ed later than I thought but my temps don't really make sense then.
@dukestar5 - Pfft. I have no idea what we're doing this weekend, lol. I know we're visiting friends and getting more dirt on some ridiculous behaviour that MIL had last weekend, but that's it. Also, 10 mile run makes you my hero! Awesome! @zamora_spin - I hope your weekend is relaxing, even if you're still doing some work! @SkilledSailor - Have fun this weekend! School is going good. Planning on getting ahead on homework this week to make things a little easier on me. Not sure how it'll go. @krashke - Based on your chart, I wouldn't assume O date was yesterday. Nothing indicates yesterday was O day other than a little EWCM, and you should have more fertile CM leading up to and on O day than one instance. I'd definitely chart the EWCM for yesterday, though, as you're supposed to chart the most-fertile CM you see throughout the day, even if it doesn't occur every time you check.
@dukestar5 Nice job on the 10 mile run! We are going to a corn maze just outside of town, so that's pretty exciting. @lurvleybunchococonuts I'm sorry your DH isn't cooperating. @zamora_spin Have fun drinking wine with the ladies! I'm sorry your body didn't get the memo, but it's good that they changed your appointment. @MrsMiller8588 Any excuse to get out of work early on a Friday is worth it! @SkilledSailor Hopefully you can find some time to unwind during your busy but fun weekend. @josie12367 Yay for a mini getaway! Have fun! @offtoneverland I hope you enjoy your beer and video games night! @krashke I don't think you are crazy for keeping your OPKs. When I use OPKs, I take a picture of it at the 5 minute mark, that way I can compare it to previous OPKs to see the progression and to previous months. As I'm typing this, I'm realizing that I might be a little crazy... @darkstar42 FX you O this weekend!
R/R: There was an unannounced workshop at my place of work this morning, consequently NO parking... gr.
CS/Q: FF is drunk.. I woke up at *what I thought was* 3:57 and took my temp (because I usually temp around 5 so I figured it wasn't the worst), and then when I actually looked at my thermometer it was 2:57 when I temped! So I still put it in, and FF decides that's the only temp this cycle that is reliable?? Go home FF.

CS/Q: Nope.
GTKY: We almost always either order pepperoni and green peppers or chicken and pineapple. I also like chorizo when you can get it!
I must be the only west coaster. Every time I come to post I feel way behind. You ladies are so awesome and supportive! All the positive feedback I got yesterday about helping my neighbors was really sweet.

R/R: Rant: I've gained 15lbs since our wedding in July and it's really starting to affect my self esteem. I stopped taking adderall after our honeymoon because we wanted to start TTC. I didn't realize how fast I would put weight on. Nothing about my diet or excerise changed and I'm drinking less. I think I'll make a follow up appt with my doctor. Rave: It's Friday! I'm going to a show tonight with a couple of my neighbors.
CS/Q:not today
GTKY: What is your favorite pizza topping? Pepperoni - I like it with pineapple
@canucklehead123 No parking is not the way to start the day off. But at least it's Friday! @Augusta108 Enjoy your whiskey time tonight! @galactickates Have fun tonight with your neighbours! Also, I usually feel super behind too because I'm almost a west coaster too.
@galactickates I am a sort-of west coaster as well, so always feel a bit intimidated when I see all the posts in the morning! @Augusta108 love me some Ron Swanson!! Do you remember the Ron Swanson pyramid of greatness?? One of the funniest things I've ever seen on TV. @krashke love the fall cat gif! I also think you might be gearing up to O - *TMI* I often get a small amount of EWCM mixed in with creamy cm on the days leading up to O, usually only see it once during the day and then it goes away; it could also be some leftover semen...the two can be very easy to confuse. @zamora_spin your ladies wine night sounds so awesome!! I love the wines from different regions theme idea! @dukestar5 I am so impressed by your morning run - I wish I had your dedication to athletics!! @lurvleybunchococonuts ah sorry YH is being so uncooperative...I'm sending him side eyes from Canada!! @SkilledSailor happy birthday weekend!! I hope you enjoy yourself!!!
@josie12367 Thanks! It is the life of a Navy wife right?! Prepare for the worst and hope for the best.
@krashke I did have a chuckle at your high waist jeans debacle. Throw them out! lol
@SkilledSailor No jokes, I have already kinda joked with him that he may need to freeze his boys for when he does his 6 month deployment in Jan. Ok, I wasn't joking, but I will break that to him in time. I need to do some homework on what it will cost us and what it will entail first though. Happy Birthday weekend to you!
@nimmle Pro-pineapple here! But MH husband is against all fruit with his "real" meal. So there always ends up being leftovers in our house as we have to order two.
@nimmle it can def take a while your body to settle down after bcp's @chloandcoco so glad your pup is doing better! @dukestar5 so nice to start your day with a big run! @lurvleybuncococonuts So sorry you didn't get to get one in this morning... id be pissed too @Zamora_spin I understand the pineapple thing!! @mrsmiller8588 yay! Catch that egg!! @SkilledSailor what are you doing this weekend??? @josie12367 eeek. It was looking so good for O on CD 14! I guess it could totally be fallback shift since its right after your high temp. Creamy is still considered fertile until you pin point the O day (which may still be CD 14) @offtoneverland Whats kingdom hearts? @nitnat007 ugh.... when do you normally O... youre still early in the game this cycle

You remind me that I need to start running again... @lurvleybunchococonuts I hate when DH start to go all rogue...Hope he gets off the ish list soon, and back under ya' Hopefully you didn't O' quite yet. @zamora_spin Yea for working at home in PJs. Glad you got the CD3 bw issue worked out! Have fun tomorrow night on wine night! @MrsMiller8588 Good job on getting your workout done this am. I have the hardest time working out in the morning. Hope DH's appointments went well, and that he's healing up nicely. @SkilledSailor Glad you FINALLY have a fun weekend planned, and not all this work! You deserve some fun lady! I'm with you on the green peppers on pizza...like, the most delicious, and lovely crunch ever! @Stargazer1lily How is the pup doing? Still on the mend? @offtoneverland I'm with you on the motivation bit. I just couldn't adult this week. Here's to all the beers! Cheers! @nitnat007 I'll be sure to tell y'all all about it. So far I did this assessment workbook to find out my "inner personality"...It had all kinds of quizzes and charts. Hope you're doing well with DH gone...eat all the cookies and ice cream. That's what I do at least! @Krashke I am so afraid to try the high waist jeans look. I just don't know if I can pull it off...I do think they look pretty cute though. Maybe I should brave it. Is it like camel toe uncomfy? Or just not comfy on the belly? Also, your temps are too convincing just yet. I'd HIO for a bit longer... @darkstar42 I so want to try a pesto and goat cheese pizza...um, delicious! Where do you find something like that? Or do you have a recipe? @canucklehead123 I love the FF drunk reference. I thought that last cycle...like the WHOLE cycle. Ridiculous. @Augusta108 Mmmmmm....a meeting with Mr. Jack Daniels tonight. Jealous! Have you heard the song by Eric Church about Jack Daniels? It's worth a listen @galactickates So sweet of you to help your neighbors out like that...I've heard it's such a process, so they're lucky to have you to support them! Enjoy your show!
So i'm out for the weekend ladies! Though I will peek in to love tit throughout the weekend when I can! I hope y'all all have a lovely weekend. Can y'all believe it's almost October already?!
@canucklehead123 Haha FF is drunk! Speaking of drunk...I read prosciutto as "prosecco" so that's where my head is at today, haha. I couldn't figure out how you were getting prosecco flavored pizza but I was on board.
@galactickates I hope you and your doctor can come to a solution about the adderall. What show are you going to?
@nitnat007 I honestly would do that too. How does he seem to feel about that idea?
@dragonette505 We're going to see Home Again tonight, lunch with in-laws tomorrow then drinks with my bestie, then the Panthers game on Sunday (my request). H is really good about celebrating my bday. Makes me crazy when he doesn't want to do anything for his. Men. Are you doing an egg retrieval this cycle or an embryo transfer?

GTKY: What is your favorite pizza topping? I will eat pretty much everything except mushroom or olives. If I am making homemade pizza I would say italian sausage. If I am getting delivery probably Hawaiian. - Yes I love pineapple on my pizza

@lurvleybunchococonuts I'm sorry about the timing! Any way you can surprise YH later? Maybe a little fun dress up to get him in the mood? (Also, I hope you enjoy your weekend and time with dsd. Any fun plans)?
@zamora_spin Your ladies' wine night sounds like a lot of fun. Do you go to a local winery or host it at someone's house? Also, keep us posted on your bw.

@izza2 Happy Friday! How is school going?
@nimmle Sorry you're body is taking longer this cycle. It can be super frustrating to just be waiting around. Glad the CBAD's are giving you some insight.
@chloandcoco Glad your dog is feeling better just in time for the weekend!
@dukestar5 I'm seriously impressed by your morning runs. Do you go running on trails or at the gym?
@lurvleybunchococonuts Assuming you O'd yesterday/last night that still looks like pretty good timing! I'm with your H, I value sleep above all else haha.
@zamora_spin Your wine nights sound amazing. Love that they're region based! How did you get that started?
@MrsMiller8588 That seems like a good reason to leave work early. Also impressed by your morning workout! You ladies are inspiring me today.

@nimmle Sorry about your delayed O. That's frustrating. FX it happens for you soon. Keep HIO
@ChloandCoco So glad your dog is feeling better.
@dukestar5 Look at you go with your 10 mile run! I'm impressed. *TW-child* DH and I used to run regularly before we had DD. It's so hard to keep up with it now though! *End TW*
@lurvleybunchococonuts So sorry about the failed HIO. Would it help any if you surprised him with some sexy lingerie? I'm sure you've already thought of all that though. Hope you can convince him tonight. Also, macaroni and cheese pizza?! Yum!!!!
@zamora_spin Hope you can figure out your appointment. Ladies wine night sounds like a blast! Have fun!
@MrsMiller8588 Good for you for doing your morning workout! Yeah!

@ChloandCoco So glad to hear that your dog is feeling better!
@dukestar5 10 miles on a Friday morning? You rock star you!
@lurvleybunchofcoconuts Damn those men! When we started TTC MH specifically said that there would never be a time that he would not be up to hio. HA!! Lies I tell you, lies!! Hope that you get to hio tonight. I love a good spinach and goat cheese pizza too.
@zamora_spin Hope you get an answer on when to go in for bw. I think I may do a lot of work from home in my pj's too this weekend.
@MrsMiller8588 Get outta of there early! I would absolutely be using that excuse to get out too. Hope his appointment goes well. How has his recovery been so far?
@SkilledSailor Hope you have an amazing weekend!
@josie12367 Have a great time on your get away. Looking forward to hearing all about it.
@Stargazer1lily I second that pineapple!
@offtoneverland Enjoy your relaxing Friday night!

WAYDTGKU: everything bar the one thing that will actually be effective, you know, the sex part.
R/R: It's Friday!!!
CS/Q: Nope
GTKY: What is your favorite pizza topping? A good Hawaiian never fails. But I add mushroom to it.
@izza2 Nom...love all the meats on my Pizza too!
@ChloandCoco So glad that your dog is finally starting to feel better! Just in time for the weekend.
@dukestar5 Suuuper impressed by your 10 mile run. I can barely make it 3.
@lurvleybunchococonuts If you can't tell, I 100% chose this GTKY because I'm craving Pizza. My hubby is boring and only likes cheese pizza. He will eat mushroom if he's feeling fancy. But I love lots of toppings on my Pizza. Also I see you Jersey girl! Native NYer myself, but now live in Jersey.
@zamora_spin Sorry that you are back here. Huge fan of working in PJs. Boo to having to work at all, but at least you can be at home.
@MrsMiller8588 Yay for getting up early. Your GTKY answer is so funny because I am the total opposite. Love mushrooms and olives, but hate Pineapple.
@Josie22 Yay for a get away! I'm sorry about your temp drop today. It's possible you didn't O, but hopefully it's a fluke and it pops up again. Was it colder in your bedroom last night?
@stargazerlily407 So many pineapple lovers!
@offtoneverland I've never played Kingdom Hearts, what kind of game is it? Yes, this GTKY is motivation for some Pizza tonight .
@dukestar5 Way to go on the run!
@ChloandCoco Glad your pupper is recovering.
@lurvleybunchococonuts I hope YH changes his tune and you HIO tonight afterall.
@josie12367 I'm sorry you're having a wonky cycle. I hope you O soon.
My appt did get moved as they are wanting to count today as CD1. Not a huge deal just annoyed at my body for not cooperating.
<<me
@izza2 Happy friday!
@nimmle sorry your cycle is getting longer.
@ChloandCoco glad your pup is feeling better!
@dukestar5 I seriously cannot fathom going for a 10 mile run let alone before the sun even comes up. Mad props.
@lurvleybunchococonuts LOVE Ian's mac and cheese pizza! Or really anything from Ian's
@zamora_spin sorry about the BW confusion. I know @darkstar42 just had hers done and had a similar question about the CD3 timing
@MrsMiller8588 def use the excuse to leave work early! and yay for HIO for fun!
@SkilledSailor is it a fun busy weekend? What do you have planned?
@josie12367 have fun on your mini getaway! Sorry about that stubborn O!
@Stargazer1lily seems like more people are for pineapple than I thought!
@offtoneverland ricotta and meatballs sounds fantastic
@nitnat007 sorry about YH but its so awesome how much he is doing to help

R/R: rant- high waist jeans are the worst, like literal 1980's torture devices. I don't know why I bought these and why I continue to wear them but I will be in agony at my desk all day. rave- FRI-YAY!
CS/Q: O may have happened yesterday but I'm not sure. I had the tiniest bit of EWCM yesterday morning but it went back to creamy for most of the day. All -OPK's so I might stick around here for a bit longer to see if the OPK's start getting darker. I am now the BSC TTC lady that has kept all her OPK's and labeled them with date and time so I can see the progression.
Chart in spoiler:
GTKY: What is your favorite pizza topping? I love black olive, green pepper and pepperoni pizza. Or Hawaiian. DH does not like most of those things so I'm usually stuck with pepperoni, sausage and bacon (not a bad choice but a lot of meat)

@zamora_spin I'm loving the sound of that wine night. I've been wanting to start something like that for awhile but am worried I'd end up cleaning my whole house and no one would show up. Sorry your body didn't cooperate with you.
@krashke It's my birthday weekend! We have lunch with the in-laws (meh), then drinks with a bestie, then going to an NFL game on Sunday (my birthday request). To say I'm distracted from work right now would be an understatement. Sorry to hear you're on the O struggle bus too.
CD: 11

R/R: It's Friday! No rants right now.
CS/Q: Gearing up to O. Probably Sunday. Chart in spoiler.
GTKY: What is your favorite pizza topping?
Edit: words
@zamora_spin - I hope your weekend is relaxing, even if you're still doing some work!
@SkilledSailor - Have fun this weekend! School is going good. Planning on getting ahead on homework this week to make things a little easier on me. Not sure how it'll go.
@krashke - Based on your chart, I wouldn't assume O date was yesterday. Nothing indicates yesterday was O day other than a little EWCM, and you should have more fertile CM leading up to and on O day than one instance. I'd definitely chart the EWCM for yesterday, though, as you're supposed to chart the most-fertile CM you see throughout the day, even if it doesn't occur every time you check.

@lurvleybunchococonuts I'm sorry your DH isn't cooperating.
@zamora_spin Have fun drinking wine with the ladies! I'm sorry your body didn't get the memo, but it's good that they changed your appointment.
@MrsMiller8588 Any excuse to get out of work early on a Friday is worth it!
@SkilledSailor Hopefully you can find some time to unwind during your busy but fun weekend.
@josie12367 Yay for a mini getaway! Have fun!
@offtoneverland I hope you enjoy your beer and video games night!
@krashke I don't think you are crazy for keeping your OPKs. When I use OPKs, I take a picture of it at the 5 minute mark, that way I can compare it to previous OPKs to see the progression and to previous months. As I'm typing this, I'm realizing that I might be a little crazy...
@darkstar42 FX you O this weekend!
Month/Cycle: 2/2

WAYDTGKU: HIO, BBT, CM, OPK, PNV, maca, pre-seed, seed cycling, etc...
R/R: There was an unannounced workshop at my place of work this morning, consequently NO parking... gr.
CS/Q: FF is drunk.. I woke up at *what I thought was* 3:57 and took my temp (because I usually temp around 5 so I figured it wasn't the worst), and then when I actually looked at my thermometer it was 2:57 when I temped! So I still put it in, and FF decides that's the only temp this cycle that is reliable?? Go home FF.

prosciutto (nommm) this GTKY made me hungry!

WAYDTGKU: Still AF time. Which means tonight it will be whiskey time!
R/R: We went to hear the author George Saunders read last night (he's amazing), and Nick Offerman (Ron from Parks and Rec) unexpectedly Skyped in during the reading! That was pretty cool. Tonight we have no plans at all and that sounds wonderful too after our busy week.
CS/Q: Nope.
GTKY: We almost always either order pepperoni and green peppers or chicken and pineapple. I also like chorizo when you can get it!

R/R: Rant: I've gained 15lbs since our wedding in July and it's really starting to affect my self esteem. I stopped taking adderall after our honeymoon because we wanted to start TTC. I didn't realize how fast I would put weight on. Nothing about my diet or excerise changed and I'm drinking less. I think I'll make a follow up appt with my doctor.
Rave: It's Friday! I'm going to a show tonight with a couple of my neighbors.
CS/Q:not today
GTKY: What is your favorite pizza topping?
Pepperoni - I like it with pineapple

@Augusta108 Enjoy your whiskey time tonight!
@galactickates Have fun tonight with your neighbours! Also, I usually feel super behind too because I'm almost a west coaster too.
@galactickates I am a sort-of west coaster as well, so always feel a bit intimidated when I see all the posts in the morning!
@Augusta108 love me some Ron Swanson!! Do you remember the Ron Swanson pyramid of greatness?? One of the funniest things I've ever seen on TV.
@krashke love the fall cat gif! I also think you might be gearing up to O - *TMI* I often get a small amount of EWCM mixed in with creamy cm on the days leading up to O, usually only see it once during the day and then it goes away; it could also be some leftover semen...the two can be very easy to confuse.
@zamora_spin your ladies wine night sounds so awesome!! I love the wines from different regions theme idea!
@dukestar5 I am so impressed by your morning run - I wish I had your dedication to athletics!!
@lurvleybunchococonuts ah sorry YH is being so uncooperative...I'm sending him side eyes from Canada!!
@SkilledSailor happy birthday weekend!! I hope you enjoy yourself!!!
@josie12367 Thanks! It is the life of a Navy wife right?! Prepare for the worst and hope for the best.
@krashke I did have a chuckle at your high waist jeans debacle. Throw them out! lol
@SkilledSailor No jokes, I have already kinda joked with him that he may need to freeze his boys for when he does his 6 month deployment in Jan. Ok, I wasn't joking, but I will break that to him in time. I need to do some homework on what it will cost us and what it will entail first though. Happy Birthday weekend to you!
@galactickates Have fun at the show tonight.
@nimmle Pro-pineapple here! But MH husband is against all fruit with his "real" meal. So there always ends up being leftovers in our house as we have to order two.
@chloandcoco so glad your pup is doing better!
@dukestar5 so nice to start your day with a big run!
@lurvleybuncococonuts So sorry you didn't get to get one in this morning... id be pissed too
@Zamora_spin I understand the pineapple thing!!
@mrsmiller8588 yay! Catch that egg!!
@SkilledSailor what are you doing this weekend???
@josie12367 eeek. It was looking so good for O on CD 14! I guess it could totally be fallback shift since its right after your high temp. Creamy is still considered fertile until you pin point the O day (which may still be CD 14)
@offtoneverland Whats kingdom hearts?
@nitnat007 ugh.... when do you normally O... youre still early in the game this cycle
CD: 4
WAYDTGKU: prep for ivf
R/R: nope
CS/Q: nope
GTKY: What is your favorite pizza topping? I'm a purist.... mozzarella and basil
@ChloandCoco Yea for the pooch feeling better!
@dukestar5 Holy crap! 10 miles?! Good for you! You remind me that I need to start running again...
@lurvleybunchococonuts I hate when DH start to go all rogue...Hope he gets off the ish list soon, and back under ya' Hopefully you didn't O' quite yet.
@zamora_spin Yea for working at home in PJs. Glad you got the CD3 bw issue worked out! Have fun tomorrow night on wine night!
@MrsMiller8588 Good job on getting your workout done this am. I have the hardest time working out in the morning. Hope DH's appointments went well, and that he's healing up nicely.
@SkilledSailor Glad you FINALLY have a fun weekend planned, and not all this work! You deserve some fun lady! I'm with you on the green peppers on pizza...like, the most delicious, and lovely crunch ever!
@Stargazer1lily How is the pup doing? Still on the mend?
@offtoneverland I'm with you on the motivation bit. I just couldn't adult this week. Here's to all the beers! Cheers!
@nitnat007 I'll be sure to tell y'all all about it. So far I did this assessment workbook to find out my "inner personality"...It had all kinds of quizzes and charts. Hope you're doing well with DH gone...eat all the cookies and ice cream. That's what I do at least!
@Krashke I am so afraid to try the high waist jeans look. I just don't know if I can pull it off...I do think they look pretty cute though. Maybe I should brave it. Is it like camel toe uncomfy? Or just not comfy on the belly? Also, your temps are too convincing just yet. I'd HIO for a bit longer...
@darkstar42 I so want to try a pesto and goat cheese pizza...um, delicious! Where do you find something like that? Or do you have a recipe?
@canucklehead123 I love the FF drunk reference. I thought that last cycle...like the WHOLE cycle. Ridiculous.
@Augusta108 Mmmmmm....a meeting with Mr. Jack Daniels tonight. Jealous! Have you heard the song by Eric Church about Jack Daniels? It's worth a listen
@galactickates So sweet of you to help your neighbors out like that...I've heard it's such a process, so they're lucky to have you to support them! Enjoy your show!
So i'm out for the weekend ladies! Though I will peek in to love tit throughout the weekend when I can! I hope y'all all have a lovely weekend. Can y'all believe it's almost October already?!
@galactickates I hope you and your doctor can come to a solution about the adderall. What show are you going to?
@nitnat007 I honestly would do that too. How does he seem to feel about that idea?
@dragonette505 We're going to see Home Again tonight, lunch with in-laws tomorrow then drinks with my bestie, then the Panthers game on Sunday (my request). H is really good about celebrating my bday. Makes me crazy when he doesn't want to do anything for his. Men. Are you doing an egg retrieval this cycle or an embryo transfer?
@josie12367 Thanks girl! Hope you have a wonderful retreat!
