Re: WTO Thursday 5/17
Sorry for P&G yesterday!
Month/Cycle: 14/14
CD: 15
WAYDTGKU: the usual
R/R: My temps are all over the place. A whole degree difference between yesterday and today. And I know I didn’t O yet. I just refuse to turn the air on and it was Fing hot in our house last night. Plus MH slept in our bed for the first time since December. I have a friend staying with us so he had no choice. I’ve been loving the separate beds thing because damn did he keep me up all night with his tossing and turning!
CS/Q: Did anyone else have a delayed O after an HSG test?
GTKY: Would you rather be wealthy or healthy, and why? This is a hard question! I would love to say health but I really want to say wealth… some health issues are manageable and with the right amount of money… it depends greatly on the health issue I guess. And like someone else said, having enough money to pay for a personal chef would be amazing! It's always been a dream of mine lol

WAYDTGKU: OPKs, pnv, charting, Bd
R/R: nothing like af showing up on your birthday... a couple days early no less... (please excuse my pity-party).
CS/Q: nope
GTKY: Would you rather be wealthy or healthy, and why? I guess healthy, because as amazing as money would be, it comes with plenty of negatives and no guarantees.

@LElkCot Thank you! Sorry AF chose your birthday to visit
@LElkCot happy birthday!

WAYDTGKU: Ava, charting/BBT, OPKs, pre-seed, myo-inositol
R/R: Rant: I really hoped AF would keep away, but she showed up yesterday afternoon and I've had crazy cramps. Rave: the nurse from my doctor finally called and my u/s was fine. One small uterine fibroid that she said isn't affecting fertility.
CS/Q: nope
GTKY: Would you rather be wealthy or healthy, and why? (stolen from TWW)
This is tricky because I think most would think that if you were wealthy that you could then afford to be super healthy, but I guess in the scenario that if you chose wealthy you are automatically giving up health, then I would chose healthy.
CD: 21... feel like I’m never moving on to WTO
WAYDTGKU: bbt, OPKs, pnv, hio
R/R: Rant: Was really hoping I O’d 2 days ago but got a temp drop this morning. Wondering how long before I can ask for Clomid...
Rave: This week is finally almost over!!!
CS/Q: No questions, just bummed I didn’t get the temp spike I was hoping for!
GTKY: Would you rather be wealthy or healthy, and why? (stolen from TWW) Both obviously, but I guess I would have to choose healthy. I dealt with a chronic illness for 2 years in high school/beginning of college and it almost ruined my life. Typically I’m very healthy so I would prefer to stay that way!
@LElkCot
@dogmomma271 Try calling your doctor and asking that question. If you have charted a few cycles and you aren't ovulating, it's not unreasonable to want to know wtf is going on. I'd think they could run preconception/fertility tests now instead of waiting until later if it's not happening in a year (under age 35) or 6 months (35+)

All I got from my ultrasound was the measurements of my ovaries/uterus, and that they have normal echotexture. I will ask about follicle count - thank you!
