Happy weekend!

Month/Cycle: 4/5
CD: 11
WAYDTGKU: BD every 2 to 3 days
R/R: tomorrow we're going skiing for the first time with my new skis, I'm excited to see if they'll be much better. We only really started skiing seriously 2 years ago, so I bought a set of used ones last year and have upgraded to new ones
CS/Q: nada

inthewoods23 · January 2019

Gonna be quiet over here eh?

Month/Cycle: 19/18

CD: 1

WAYDTGKU: letrozole, IUI #2, progesterone, PNV

R/R: I've never been so excited for AF to show lol. Gonna be calling the RE's office on Monday to get IUI #2 going!

CS/Q: nothing exciting

marbellie · January 2019

@inthewoods23 I know right. Everyone else partying it up in TWW? Good luck with #2~

galentine · January 2019

@marbellie, have fun skiing!
@inthewoods23, sorry for CD 1. Good luck on IUI #2!

Month/Cycle: 4/4

CD: 14

WAYDTGKU: pnvs, opks, cm, HIO EOD

R/R: It's finally the weekend!! I'm doing my usual this weekend: productive Saturday running all the errands and cleaning all the things so I can relax on Sunday. And my H has plans tomorrow so my relaxing Sunday gets to include all the tv shows he never wants to watch. I love my H, but I also love occasionally having the house to myself!

CS/Q: nada

stephanie123456 · January 2019

@marbellie sounds like fun! I’ve never been skiing. I live in Southern California so snow is not something we experience 😭

@inthewoods23 glad that you are here so you can get your next iui started! But also sorry my friend.

@galentine good routine! Have a wonderfully relaxing weekend.

Month/Cycle: 4/4

CD: 8

WAYDTGKU: BBT, OPK, CM, PNV, EPO, SMEP, raspberry leaf tea, preseed and soft cups

R/R: We are getting more rain here so nice to have that. But it makes me want to lay around rather than get stuff done 🤷🏼‍♀️ DH is playing poker tonight with his brothers and dad so I’m all on my own!

CS/Q: has anyone used mucinex before for CM? I always struggle with EWCM so I’ve added EPO and raspberry leaf tea but anything else that helps will be great.

marbellie · January 2019

@galentine your weekends sound so awesome and adult....let's not talk about the bad life decisions I make each weekend as the norm
@stephanie123456 ohh but if you go to the north I've heard there are amazing mountains. I live in the northeast so our mountains have nothing on the west. I wanted to do a major ski trip out there before TTC but yet ....

jennifer_louise · January 2019

***lurk*** happy weekend ladies!

@stephanie123456 I used Mucinex (or generic Guanifesin) for my first 4ish cycles because I read that it could help conceive by thinning out the mucus. I stopped after a while and I would say it didn't make more EWCM compared to now, but maybe more of the watery stuff? Overall I would say not a huge difference.

TW *** Previous PG ***

I was using Guanifesin the first time I got KU. I was HIO EOD and taking it on the days I had sex. That was my first and only cycle TTC, so I assumed Guanifesin had something to do with it. So, that's why I used it in the beginning this time too. Obviously, different results.

b_1029 · January 2019

I’m baaaack!

@marbellie hope you have fun skiing!

@inthewoods23 I’m with you! Cycle sisters for sure haha. I’m so hopeful for your 2nd IUI!

@galentine totally with you there on having the house to yourself- enjoy! Which shows are you watching (as if I need to watch any more shows lol)?!

@stephanie123456 hope you’re having a nice relaxing weekend! I’m going to try mucinex this cycle too I think. Thanks @jennifer_louise for the tips!

Month/Cycle: 15/16

CD: 1

WAYDTGKU: CM, BBT, Clomid, OPKs, who knows what else I’ll end up adding in this cycle. Worshipping fertility gods?

R/R: other than the fact I’m SO sad I won’t be part of the September BMB (and didn’t get the best kind of 30th birthday gift), I’m so glad this cycle freaking started! Lately my LP has been 15-16 days and it’s driving me nuts when I know I’m not KU. I haven’t done anything to lengthen it and if anything I wish the 1st part of my cycle would last longer!
Last night I stayed up super late going through my closet (after watching like 10 minutes of that Marie Kondo show on Netflix) and have 3 huge piles for goodwill and 2 to attempt to sell online. Feels good! Now I should go through all the onesies I’ve bought...🙄

CS/Q: I think clomid is making my CM hostile. I’ve been trying to do some research- if I take EPO and mucinex or something, should that cover me?

Edited- messed up a tag

inthewoods23 · January 2019

@b_1029 cycle sisters woo! I definitely need to find some time to watch that Marie Kondo show! We have so much junk lying around our house or it's just on the floor not organized... We don't even have a filing cabinet right now! 😣

cdnrunning · January 2019

Month/Cycle: 9/3

CD: 17

WAYDTGKU: vit c, ava, ff, progesterone

R/R: I'm pretty sure I ovulated yesterday. That would make it the earliest ovulation date in more than two years of tracking. The only thing I did differently was the vit c. I don't think that was the cause but interesting nonetheless. I've ovulated most often on CD 19 and as late as CD 26.

CS/Q: not today

@marbellie I've always wanted to learn how to ski. The one time I "tried" I was skiing in Banff, fell down on my friend's ski and need stitches as a result

@inthewoods23 Sorry about CD 1 but high five for the positive attitude! Have you found that you're experiencing a lot of side effects from the progesterone?

@galentine I seriously love solo movie days. My H and I watch the same stuff for the most part but sometimes it's just nice to watch your own stuff. I'll admit I usually default to some pretty lame romcom's lol

@stephanie123456 what did you end up doing for your solo night??

jennifer_louise · January 2019

@b_1029 So sorry for CD1

if you do use Mucinex make sure Guanifesin is the only active ingredient. Sometimes they try to sneak other stuff in (@stephanie123456 too).

stephanie123456 · January 2019

@jennifer_louise thanks for the tips! So just make sure the active ingredient is the guanifesin? About to go to the store.

jennifer_louise · January 2019

Yup! Not sure of the spelling but hopefully it's close enough.

you can also look for Robitussin or the generic version. I hope it works for you guys!!

inthewoods23 · January 2019

@cdnrunning I think, if anything, the progesterone made me a little bloated and some weight gain. I definitely never felt any really strong symptoms. Nothing that screamed out "I'm mimicking pregnancy symptoms so get your hopes up".

cdnrunning · January 2019

@inthewoods23 same here on the bloating, and for me...the weight gain was purely a result of the voracious appetite that took over like I was possessed. I ate ALL THE THINGS.

Spartanrd4 · January 2019

Month/Cycle: 1/1

CD: CD19

WAYDTGKU: bbt, ff, preseed, opks, pnv, synthroid for Hashimotos

R/R: Had flashy smiley on opk today and yesterday....hopefully will get solid smiley tomorrow, last month I O'd on day 21 so should be soon.

CS/Q: not at the moment

begging4abump · January 2019

Oh hey, guys, mind if I join this side of things? *wine glass in hand*

@marbellie I tried skiing last March for the first time ever. It was fun until MH got a little impatient and we moved on to the intermediate hills a little too quickly for my skill level. Oof. I hope the new skis are working out for you!

@inthewoods23 I’m glad you weren’t stranded in no-man’s-land too long, though I’m sure it could have felt like forever.

@cdnrunning What is up with breaks from the norm? Nuts to that noise! Tho, maybe an early o is a welcomed shift?

@galentine I hope you’re feeling accomplished from yesterday and gearing up to enjoy your you time. My guilty pleasure used to be watching the bachelor franchise shows when MH wasn’t around. Alas, no more cable for us, but that’s for the best!

@stephanie123456 what’s your itinerary for a free night? Also, I just researched what soft cups are, so thanks for the tip I guess. 🙂 The more you know 🌈

@b_1029 I’m right there with you for CD1...and for throwing everything but the kitchen sink for making this THE MONTH.

Month/Cycle: 9s

CD: 1

WAYDTGKU: opk, going to start temping tomorrow, hopefully SMEP, switching to decaf after we start hio, no nitrates, prenatal, cm

R/R: somehow I’m seeing this cycle as a fresh start which is completely not me (maybe I already cried enough over #8 midway when I thought I wasn’t going to ovulate?) so hopefully this optimism lasts. Though I’m going to give it my EVERYTHING, so if this month is a bust, I WILL lose it.

CS/Q: we’ll see how charting goes, as it’ll be my first official attempt.
