NEWCOMERS:To be added to the Weekly Checkin, please answer the following:
1. How long have you been TTC?
2. What is your diagnosis?
3. What is your current Rx?
Re: TTC Check-in: 01/28/2019
@PoeMasque - sorry about the stomach flu; that’s the worst! Hope everyone in your family is feeling better! When’s your RE appointment again? Hope soon!
@chiblackhawkie - hope you get an answer by Wed whether AF will show up or not - the waiting sucks! (Can also relate to the in-laws and drinking comment lol).
@inthewoods23 - how are you doing with the TWW? FX for you!!
@cigaline - how’s the caffeine withdrawal? Any better? I think your RE appointment is coming up soon, right?
@prpl11butterfly - how’s the progesterone going? Hoping better than expected!
AFM: AF just ended so will be using the OPKs soon. Sound like a bit of a broken record here each check-in lol. Bit grumpy with it just being Monday lol. The weather doesn’t help as well where I am; it’s currently -32 C here. I hope everyone else is having better weather where they are!
QOTW: teleportation would be pretty cool. Could avoid rush hour traffic that way lol.
I'm in the boring part of my cycle. Waiting for FW to open but alas, the EWCM has arrived today as expected. I wish this meant I would O on the earlier side but it means nothing for me. O will be between 17 and 19 with today being 13.... So answer your question @sincethelastday, I haven't started it yet. Hoping there's possibility to start it before Monday but it's highly unlikely.
My TWW feels slow so far since the IUI was on Friday. Sorta freaking out because I did temp this cycle and both of my apps say I O'ed the day before the IUI so I'm hoping we didn't miss our window! Progesterone suppositories start tomorrow.

@sincethelastday Brr! A little better here (14 degrees), but still chilly. Mondays don't help the mood at all.
@prpl11butterfly I hear you. Some parts of the cycle just seem to drag...
@inthewoods23 Hope timing was on your side. Sometimes I wonder how much the medicine we're put on changes things like temps.
In regards to where my frozen butt is right now, I live in Manitoba, Canada. A regular “winter wonderland” *eye roll*. With the windchill today it’s actually -48 degrees C. Believe me, I often wonder why I live here lol.
Places are closing for the day tomorrow due to the cold. Does that happen often in Canada?

AFM, nothing much to report. My period was so odd this cycle that I wasn’t sure what day was really CD1, so I didn’t do meds (again). Waiting for O in a few days, but not really hopeful since my LP seems to be about 5 days without letrozole
QOTW: invisibility!! Soooo many possibilities with that one.
