Month/Cycle: 4/4

CD: 2

WAYDTGKU: PNV, BBT, OPK's, adding green tea for CM

R/R: Sigh...

CS/Q: Not much to see today.

Month/Cycle: 14/15

CD: 12

WAYDTGKU: Benched

R/R: Rave. I made my first HelloFresh meal and it was amazing!!! It said it was only supposed to take 30 min to make but it took me almost an hour lol. Oh well, I’ll get this down. MH even loved it! He said it was the best meal that I have ever made. Score!

Rant. Well, we’ve officially been benched… My OB finally got back to me about the antibiotic I was switched to. It can cause major birth defects. I wasn’t sure how it would affect an egg or embryo if it hasn’t even attached yet, so I wanted to check with her. She’s just erring on the side of caution. I know at the beginning of this cycle I was considering taking a break anyways. But now that it’s not my choice I hate it! I’ll probably be going into lurking mode for the rest of this cycle…

CS/Q: nope

@meggyme Damn. Sigh is right. I'm sorry you are back here my friend

@LJMoon6 Sorry about the benching. Fx crossed for you. Take some time for you

meggyme · June 2018

@LJMoon6 Sorry about being benched. That sucks.

crookshanks10 · June 2018

@meggyme Sorry you're back here WTO

@LJMoon6 I'm so glad you enjoyed your first Hello Fresh meal! What did you make?! I hate that you're benched this cycle, but you do have to get better.. that's most important!

Month/Cycle: 9/10

CD: 11

WAYDTGKU: OPKs and HIO currently

R/R: Rant: I think I may have developed a cyst this cycle.. I hope not, but either way we'll continue to HIO. Rave: Finally hanging some things on the wall today! YAY! It's the little things in life haha. It's been so fun being able to decorate this house. My DH insists we paint the hall bathroom next.. so not looking forward to that. I hate painting.

CS/Q: Does anyone else get kinda freaked out when they have numerous days in a row where their BBT is the exact same? I just think it's super weird haha. I told myself I wasn't going to temp but... I'm much more relaxed this cycle, which helps.

meggyme · June 2018

@meladams10 what temperature is it? Some thermometers give the exact same temp (I wanna say 97.77) when they fail or as a default temp on start up.

***Question***
Is there anyway to change the color of the symptoms on your FF chart? I only have 3 items on my chart and right now 2 of them are the exact same color of purple.

crookshanks10 · June 2018

@meggyme It's been 97.71 these past 2 mornings. I always make sure to get the ---.-- lines before starting but maybe tomorrow I'll be able to find out if it gives me a different temp! I guess I should mention that this is a clomid cycle, so maybe that explains it? That's weird that your symptoms are showing the same color? I haven't had that before? Not sure if there's a way to change the color manually.

navete · June 2018

@LJMoon6 I’m so glad you’re enjoying the HelloFresh! What was the meal you prepared? That sucks that you’re benched this cycle, but good that you’re getting treatment to get better. How much longer do you have to take the antibiotics?

@meggyme The first few days of WTO are such a let down, I’m sorry

. I hope the green tea works out for CM! I’m curious how effective it’ll be for you, maybe I’ll try it out too...

@meladams10 FX it’s not a cyst!

Month/Cycle: 3/3

CD: 14

WAYDTGKU: BBT, OPKs, CM/CP, BD

R/R: Rant: This WTO has really seemed to drag on, and it doesn’t seem like O is imminent even though I should be in FW right now. I don’t have any of the usual fertility signs and it’s bumming me out.
Rave (kinda): I submitted the 5th offer on a house for my clients yesterday and so hopeful this is it for them! They are a really wonderful family and I am keeping FX that I can call them with good news today.

CS/Q: Nothing interesting to show.

catlady2015 · June 2018

@meggyme - I don't think you can change the colors. I've had that happen before too.

I wish you could change the colors and code it - bad symptoms be colors you don't like, and good ones pretty colors.

@meladams10 - I get weirded out if it's two days in a row with the exact same temp. I feel like there should be a slight difference if I'm temping to the .01!

meggyme · June 2018

@catlady2015 it's stupid. I have 3 things on there and 1 and 2 are the same. Maybe I'll send that in as a comment to FF.

@navete I'll let you know how the green tea works.

crookshanks10 · June 2018

@catlady2015 I'm glad I'm not the only one haha. Maybe for once our bodies are just consistent with something..

quidditchcapn1120 · June 2018

@LJMoon6 Dang, sorry about being benched. I hope you get to feeling better though!

lelkcot · June 2018

@meggyme sorry to see you back over here.

@LJMoon6 sorry for being benched, but hopefully the meds have you feeling better! Yay for HelloFresh and a delicious dinner! I’ve tried them and enjoyed it!

@meladams10 hopefully it’s not a cyst!

@navete hopefully o is just around the corner. I feel ya on WTO dragging!

Nothing new here... just CD 8...

navete · June 2018

@LElkCot Thanks! I actually got a positive on the Wondos and a peak reading on the ClearBlue digital this morning, right after my post. This is the first cycle I’m using OPKs so I’m a bit tentative with these readings. The ClearBlue went from 2 days of “low” straight to “peak” so I don’t know how accurate that is (I started testing too late in my cycle according to the instructions). Anyway, I’m just happy to finally have some activity to obsess over...also means WTO might end soon! Woo

lelkcot · June 2018

@navete yay! Fx you’re about to be out of WTO!

LJMoon6 · June 2018

@meggyme Sorry you’re back over here. You’ll have to let us know how the green tea works!

@meri-mac Thanks friend. I clicked on your link to your wedding dress and now I’m getting adds of wedding dresses lol.

@meladams10 I made the “Sweet ‘N’ Smoky Chicken Cutlets.” OMG soooo good! I know I’m really looking forward to getting better soon… hopefully! These meds need to kick in soon. Part of my BSC self is thinking that maybe I have been sick this whole time and that’s why I haven’t gotten KU yet. Whatever I have to tell myself to make it through this cycle lol. You’ve been having quite a few cyst lately. So sorry to hear that. Are they more common/worse with the clomid?

@navete I made the “Sweet ‘N’ Smoky Chicken Cutlets.” It was so easy and so delicious! Now I’m hoping MH has the dishes done before I get home tonight so I can cook another one mess free lol. I know I need to get healthy so I’m focusing on that. So far I’ve only taken this new med for 2 days out of 10 prescribed. I’m still not feeling any better yet so who knows what will be next. I just hope I O early this cycle so I can get it over with. I don’t want to drag it out. Based on CM I’m thinking maybe tomorrow will be O day. We’ll see what the OPK says tonight. Sorry your WTO is dragging! That makes BDing hard. Hang in there.

@quidditchcapn1120 Thanks friend. I do feel a change in my sinuses with this medication but it’s not a “feeling better” change. I don’t know how long I’ll wait before contacting my doctor again. I’m a little worried that it might be fungal and not bacterial. I used to work with high concentrations of fungal spores in an uncontrolled environment at my previous job…

@LElkcot Thanks! I know I should be in the best possible health so that’s what I’m focusing on. I just need to start feeling better soon!

meri-mac · June 2018

**Lurking from TWW**
@LJMoon6 I should have anticipated that. I'm so sorry!!

suzycupcake · June 2018

Does anyone else see these stupid pregnancy ad videos? My ad blocker isn't blocking them. Yuck.

CD: 16

WAYDTGKU: all

R/R: I feel depressed today. Ugh.

CS/Q: Temp shift this morning but another positive opk and some cramping so Idk what's going on. I couldn't have ovulated yesterday if I'm still getting a positive opk, right? My fp temps aren't usually as high as they were this time so it's hard to tell. I think tcoyf says it's possible so maybe our timing is our timing and that's it.

meggyme · June 2018

@suzycupcake yeah, i’ve Been seeing those ads on the site and app lately. Seems pretty insensitive.

longhairdntcare · June 2018

Just intro'd today - jumping right in

Hope that's ok.

Month/Cycle: 4/4

CD: 2 ugh

WAYDTGKU: charting, temping, opks, TW? in spoiler:

I also cut out a work day pump session to try to regulate cycle (will be done at EOM when DD turns 1)

R/R: I have a sinus infection. stupid.

CS/Q: nothing really. I have been ovulating late (CD 19-22) and LH has been short (~ 5 days/4 days/7 days the last 3 cycles). So that sucks. Not sure if there is anything I can do about that? TW in spoiler

I sent a message to my OB about it and she just said that BF'ing could be affecting my cycle and to just keep charting/trying.

general_organa · June 2018

@meggyme sorry to see you over here.

@LJMoon6 sorry you're benched, but I think erring on the side of caution is probably best!

@meladams10 I've never seen temps exactly the same multiple days in a row, so that would definitely freak me out!

@navete TBH time in general has basically screeched to a crawl since we started TTC. Every single day seems to drag on!

@suzycupcake I'm seeing the stupid videos. With the horribly obnoxious sound. I think it's from the Bump, so ABP can't block them.

Month/Cycle: 3/3

CD: 4

WAYDTGKU: Nothin at the moment. DH comes home from his work trip tonight, but I won't O until CD17-19, so there's nothing really to do. B complex, scheduling sex, charting in FF, thinking about cutting caffeine down, starting acupuncture around O for this month.

R/R: My manager left me a voicemail last night after I logged off from working. I'm part-time, and technically "temporary" (but I've been working for them for almost a year now) and I'm always afraid they're going to let me go! I don't think that's the case, but it's always a fear. Hopefully it's not bad news when I call her in just a little bit!

CS/Q: Nothing to see.

meggyme · June 2018

@longhairdntcare welcome! I’d agree with your spoilered comments. If you go over to the TFAS thread I feel like there’s are a couple ladies nursing.

JLaVO888 · June 2018

@meggyme and @LJMoon6 echoing everyone else by saying sorry you are back in WTO/benched.

Nothing new for me except that amazon says my BBT thermometer will be here tomorrow which will be CD 5 so I can start temping morning of CD 6. I know alcohol can throw temps. Anyone have experience with that? How off will it throw it?

meggyme · June 2018

@jlavo888 mine aren’t effected by a glass or two of wine, but much more than than and they go up

suzycupcake · June 2018

@general_organa We must find a solution!
