CS/Q:

GTKY: Which common saying or phrase describes you?

SkilledSailor · October 2017

Month/Cycle: 6/6

CD: 14, 99% sure today is O

WAYDTGKU: Lots of things.

R/R: Meh, it’s a gloomy Monday here. A photo shoot I was a part of in the spring was just published though, so that’s exciting!

CS/Q: I'm wondering if either the pom juice, baby aspirin, or Coq10 is making me ovulate earlier? O day seems to be a day or two earlier every month. Anyone else experienced this?

GTKY: Murphy’s Law hardcore applies to my life, both good and bad. A phrase that comes to mind, though, is “so far, so good”.

therealbitts · October 2017

@SkilledSailor I am interested to hear responses to your question about Pom or Coq10 delaying O. I just started both of those this cycle, so I'm not sure.

Month/Cycle: 11/13

CD: 13

WAYDTGKU: BBT, OPKs, HIO, Pom juice, acupuncture, Coq10, PNVs

R/R: Sad that today is Monday (blah!), but we are going on a trip to Disney in a couple weeks! Counting down the days until vacay!

CS/Q: Nothing today!

GTKY: Which common saying or phrase describes you? Hmm... it doesn't describe me per se, but I subscribe to the notion of "you catch more flies with honey than you do vinegar"

elothair · October 2017

@SkilledSailor What part did you play in the photoshoot?

Month/Cycle: 8/13

CD: 12

WAYDTGKU: HIO, CM, Pom, BBT, OPK

R/R: Rant: Back to reality Monday, ugh - packing lunches is my least favourite chore. Rave: My mom is still here today so we are going to do some shopping, and hopefully my work stays relatively quiet today to allow for that!

CS/Q: Chart in Spoiler - is the drop the past few days meaningful? This is my second month back to FF and my temps are so much more chaotic than when I was using the app before.

GTKY: Which common saying or phrase describes you? "Well-behaved women seldom make history"

luckypandas · October 2017

Month/Cycle: 3/2

CD: 11

WAYDTGKU: Letrozole, LH blood tests, IUI, progesterone

R/R: Having to wake up early every morning for LH blood work. DW and I are hopefully going to go camping this weekend after our IUI.

CS/Q: Nope

GTKY: Which common saying or phrase describes you? "Trial by fire" I live my life this way. It usually goes well, although sometimes it can bite me in the butt.

@SkilledSailor - Gloomy here too -- I am also taking CoQ10, and last month I ovulated on day 13. But I am also on Letrozole...so that could be it too?

@therealbitts - OMG love Disney!! We are AP holders

Where are you guys staying??

@elolin - Tell me about Pom?

SkilledSailor · October 2017

@therealbitts SO jealous of your Disney trip! We just decided that will be our next big trip, but probably still a year os so away. Any highlights you have planned?

@elolin I provided the furniture and decor rentals.

@luckypandas Do you do old school camping or glamping?

canucklehead123 · October 2017

@SkilledSailor what publication? I would love to see the photos!
@elolin the drop could mean O is on its way, or it could also mean your bedroom is colder than usual, or it could be none of the above. LOL helpful right?
@luckypandas ooh camping? Do you guys tent or do you have a trailer?

Month/Cycle: 3/3

CD: 12 - I was way off yesterday lol.

WAYDTGKU: bbt, cm, opk, pnv, seed-cycling, pre-seed...etc.

R/R: Rave: I'm working a short day today because we close with our lawyers on the new house this afternoon!! Yippee!

CS/Q: None

GTKY: Which common saying or phrase describes you? I have never thought about this before, and now as I do, it seems I can't think of any common sayings or phrases at all. That's a Monday morning win.

lurvleybunchococonuts · October 2017

*lurking from TWW*
@canucklehead123 @SkilledSailor HEYYYY!!! I'm still around, moved to TWW

Stupid TB was being a pita for DAYS, plus I don't post much on weekends. FX for all you lovely ladies!

@canucklehead123 yay!!! house closing

@SkilledSailor that's a great question about the coq-10. I have no solid feedback except I've been taking it (just started end of last cycle/start of this cycle) and I O'd out of nowhere. Could be due to the annov cycle I just had? Could be due to CoQ-10? *shrugs* Not very helpful I know, but food for thought. I hope the sun comes out soon!

therealbitts · October 2017

@elolin I love that quote!

@luckypandas we are going to Disneyland and staying at the Disneyland Resort connected to the park! I did not expect to be this excited! Good luck with your IUI! Is this your first? I am planning to do my first IUI in December.

@SkilledSailor We are definitely planning to hit all the big rides, and have a few dinner reservations planned too! *TW my oldest son says he is scared of the characters walking around, so this might be interesting... End TW* Are you thinking of going to Disneyland or Disney World? I really want to go to Disney World too, but we have family in CA so Disneyland made more sense this time.

luckypandas · October 2017

@SkilledSailor & @canucklehead123 -- We definitely glamp! We have a 35ft travel trailer LOL

@therealbitts -- Oh man, we went to Disneyland for the first time in April (I'm a Disney World girl). I loved it!! Enjoy it soooo much!!!

@canucklehead123 -- House closing is such a relief!

elothair · October 2017

@therealbitts We just got back from a Disney trip in September - most definitely the happiest place on earth!

@luckypandas pomegranate juice! Supposed to help create a healthy uterine lining for implantation

@canucklehead123 Sometimes I wonder if charting just adds more stress vs. being helpful! Congrats on the new house!

canucklehead123 · October 2017

@lurvleybunchococonuts HAAAY! Lurked your HP Fest post earlier this morning - sounds like it was so cool!! I've been feeling a HP movie marathon, maybe Halloween!?
@luckypandas sounds amazing! DH and I are thinking of investing in a trailer because I can't sleep in the tent anymore... too scared of bears!

blackhottamales · October 2017

@SkilledSailor so fun on the photo being published! very exciting.
@therealbitts what's the count down? So many people go to Disney--I think that should be my UO. I don't like going to Disney places. **oh the shame**
@elolin i'm still fairly new to FF; however i really can't use my temps for help until after the fact. like oh my temp increased over the past 2 days, looks like i did ovulate.
@luckypandas camping sounds fun--all the fall colors and sweaters.

@canucklehead123 YAY on the new house! congrats

CS/Q:3 lonely dots

GTKY: Which common saying or phrase describes you?
"counting my chickens before they hatch"
I often get ahead of myself and MH has to pull me back to reality. like Saturday when i started researching infant daycares...

@canucklehead123 HP Fest was super fun

We're starting a HP marathon after the fact

therealbitts · October 2017

@blackhottamales lol on your UO! My only complaint about going to Disney is theme parks wear me out. Need to get some good walking shoes... when does your husband get back? Props to you on the lingerie!

nitnat007 · October 2017

@Skilledsailor I am pretty sure today is my O day as well. Good job on the photo shoot. Awesome! On early O, not sure that I am any help. I have tried all bar the baby aspirin and haven;t seen an effect as yet.

@therealbitts Oh so exciting! Trip to Disney! Jealous. First trip or have you been before?

@elolin Enjoy shopping with your mom! Looking for anything in particular or just along for the ride? I normally get a bit of a temp drop right before O, so possibly gearing up for it? When is normal O day for you? Also, love that saying!

@luckypandas Enjoy camping!

@canucklehead123 Woohoo! Congrats on the closing! Are you going to go celebrate?

@blackhottamales Ooohhh lingerie! I have been thinking of getting something for when MH gets back from this next trip to spice things up a bit. We may need an "after dark" thread again soon lol

Month/Cycle: 4/5 (1 benched)

CD: 14

WAYDTGKU: all the things

R/R: I didn't sleep again last night. I really need to go and get myself some Melatonin or something. Suggestions welcome! Had a great class today though, even on little to no sleep!

CS/Q:

GTKY: Which common saying or phrase describes you?

"You can't make an omelette without breaking a few eggs"

blackhottamales · October 2017

@therealbitts i'm sure you'll get your steps in! MH returns wednesday! he's only been gone since last Monday but it's a long time for us. He won't become normal until the weekend i'm guessing from the jetlag. He's in China right now.

nimmle · October 2017

Month/Cycle: 3/3

CD: 11

WAYDTGKU: all the things

R/R: rant- Monday and back at work. Also have a cold and it sucks.

CS/Q: nothing to see yet. Just started consistently temping yesterday because I left my BBT at home when I went out to my moms.

GTKY: Which common saying or phrase describes you?

I'll have to think about this.

canucklehead123 · October 2017

@nitnat007 we should celebrate!! But I don't know how - I told DH I was detoxing from alcohol for the remainder of my cycle and he promised to do the same...perhaps some sort of dessert?

jaylii · October 2017

I’m woefully behind today. Still can’t post on desktop at work for some reason so I’m on mobile. I’ll try to come back with some tags later!

Month/Cycle: 4/5

CD: 4

WAYDTGKU: All the things

R/R: Not much, just a Monday at work for me. Hoping the rain clears up so I can walk my dog when I get home.

CS/Q: I think I’m going to be making an on appointment. I’ve been having weird period stuff. This cycle: extremely heavy flow, horrible cramps, clots but then also only a barely three day period.

GTKY: Which common saying or phrase describes you? The only one that comes to mind and this sounds cheesy is “when the going gets tough, the tough get going.” I feel like I get a lot done in this by being resilient.

blackhottamales · October 2017

@jaylii I am having that probably too on desktop. Someone posted how they were able to log on and that's been working for me:
Go to the TTGP forum without logging in, click on new discussion and it takes you to the login page and then log in. then it works. stupid work around--but for me it's so much easier to type and tag on desktop vs mobile.

SkilledSailor · October 2017

@canucklehead123 YGPM with the link to the publication. Congratulations on closing day!

@lurvleybunchococonuts Hi! I was wondering where you went off to! I'll be joining you in TWW shortly. Sounds like you had lots of fun this weekend! I'm loving the photos you shared.

@therealbits We haven't planned that far. We'd likely do Disney World since we're East coast but H's BFF lives in CA so maybe we'd do that if we could swing the flights. We'll see. FX your eldest changes his mind once he sees them all.

@Luckypandas Love it! That's the only way I could go "camping".

@blackhottamales Haha I do the same thing! We definitely toured birthing centers before even TTC because I'm a planner like that.

@nitnat007 Yay for O day. I use melatonin fairly regularly, unfortunately. It really does help me fall asleep. I also use lavender oils on my pillow.

@jaylii FX you're able to be seen quickly and have any issues resolved before next AF. Or even better, get KTFU and not have AF for 9 months.

elothair · October 2017

@blackhottamales Yes - mine sometimes changes the crosshairs a few times though so I have a feeling I'm either not actually ovulating (which is why I added OPKs this month) or my lack of good chunks of sleep messes with the system too badly to get accurate readings on my bbt

@nitnat007 We were just browsing but I ended up getting some clothes and some fun groceries - we went across the border into the US and there are way different food things/snacks than we get in Canada so I always love to try all the new flavours. I don't have a consistent O day - I'm not even positive I really do ovulate each month, I added in OPKs this month so we'll see - still getting negatives on them so far. I have tried Melatonin in the past as I have awful sleep patterns and it didn't help me but my sister swears by it so worth a shot!

@jaylii My last few periods have been that way as well - way shorter but more fierce than normal. My doctor doesn't seem to think anything of it so far but we'll see if it continues I'll definitely be going back again!

nitnat007 · October 2017

@SkilledSailor Thank you! I’m going to get some tomorrow and give it a try. I need something. Cranky me is not fun to be around.

@elolin Oh fun! Shopping in the US is definitely a fun adventure every once in a while. I haven’t been down in a couple years but we are talking about a NY trip. I do think that your body could possibly be gearing up to O. Keep using those OPK’s and hio!!

nmbrcrnchr1 · October 2017

@therealbitts we are hoping to go on. Disney Cruise in a few years, we love cruises and I’ve heard Disney has a great line, have you been on one of their cruises?

@nitnat007 now I want an omelette!!!

Month/Cycle: 2/3

CD: 1

WAYDTGKU: HIO, acupuncture

R/R: welcoming AF back today...this is both a rant/rave, rant bc well...yea, but I’m raving bc I’m happy it’ll be gone before my girl’s trip this weekend.

CS/Q: nope

GTKY: Which common saying or phrase describes you? This describes my day at work “failure to plan on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part”

therealbitts · October 2017

@nitnat007 I have been to Disney, but I was really little! Looking forward to experiencing the magic again. Sorry to hear you aren't sleeping well. This sounds silly, but could it be the temperature in your bedroom? Sometimes when the seasons start to change, I notice I'll sleep worse if I haven't adjusted the temp inside to account for what's going on outside. Either way, I hope you can get some good rest soon!

@nmbrcrnchr1 I haven't been on a disney cruise, but my coworker went a few weeks ago (she barely dodged the hurricanes!). She had a great time! Sorry for CD1. Hope it passes quickly.
