    R/R: rain rain rain. I think this is only supposed to last this morning. Man it looks so gloomy.... And we had such a nice sunny day yesterday. Also my cat is very interested in outside right now. Good luck getting down cat. She's jumped onto our headboard before while we're still in bed and then will come crashing down on our faces. Not pleasant, but it's a rare occurrence.

    @brookert615 Up and at 'em! FX for good weather for both of us today.

    @emeraldduchess Sorry about the temp drop. Is it normal for you to O this late in your cycle? Maybe wine + cold room messed up your chart and you've already o'd?

    @inthewoods23 Ha! Love the cat photo. She knows your faces are there to break her fall 😂

    Month/Cycle: 19/11

    CD: 9

    WAYDTGKU: All the things, plus Follistim, IUI, and progesterone.

    R/R: I triggered last night, so I'm done with all my injections! IUI tomorrow. Also, I work a shorter day today, so I'm in a pretty good mood today 

    CS/Q: nope

    ETA: Google answered my question
  • Month/Cycle: 2/2

    CD: 4

    WAYDTGKU:
    -Keeping an eye on ovulation window, no contraception, sperm-friendly lubricant (Pre-Seed), staying healthy in general (working out, hiking, eating healthier), pre-natal vitamins, avoiding unnecessary chemicals/nasties in environment/food/pharms.
    -In terms of eating healthier, I've been adding in lots of extra fruits, vegetables (particularly greens and cruciferous ones), hemp hearts, sesame seeds, cacao powder, and olive/avocado oils.
    -I also have a very low caffeine intake (and I already don't drink alcohol or smoke).
    -I started a TTC journal (handwritten), so that has been helping me cope with some of the stress!

    R/R: AF is on her way out, so I'm a happy lady! I'm off to do cardio in the next hour.

  • @ruby696 good luck with IUI tomorrow! I will be crossing everything for you!
    To answer your question, since I have been temping, O has been between CD16 and CD20. 
    TW
    I O'ed on CD25 after my loss, so I don't really count that one. The cycle I got my BFP,  O was on CD16,  but I miscarried at 5 weeks. I do wonder if my late O and (usually) 12 day LP is why I'm not getting KU. Even with a later O, we've had great timing, so I don't think it's a matter of missing the window. 
  • @emeraldduchess Enjoy your walk! Oh yum, those bagels sound good! So sorry about the temp drop.

    @inthewoods23 So much rain! Too funny about your cat!

    @ruby696 Good luck with your IUI tomorrow!

    WAYDTGKU: BBT, CM, PNV, baby aspirin, B6, B-complex, no caffeine or alcohol, HIO (hopefully getting tested for progesterone this cycle, and DH's SA) 

    R/R: DH has been working late last week and this week, which means the evenings are a little lonely, but I also can watch whatever I want on tv. I just finished Hanna on Amazon Prime, and I'm finishing up Mrs. Maisel, so I need a new show to watch. Suggestions?

    CS/Q: not yet
  • Good morning, ladies! 

    CS/Q: 😡😡😡 Huge temp drop again. I was so sure O was on Sunday! I had EWCM yesterday morning, but it completely dried up in the afternoon. I was really cold when I woke up this morning, so I don't know if that had any affect. 


    So frustrating! I say keep trying to HIO of you and your DH still have the energy. Hopefully, O is just around the corner or maybe today was just a fluke!

    @puppylove8910 thanks!  DH and I are both off work this week, so I know we have the energy. I just worry about sperm count/health/maturity and egg quality.

    R/R:  have been neglecting the boards recently - needed to step away for a few days.  Probably will be a little quieter this cycle as I've been feeling a bit down about everything.  But I still love all my bumpie ladies!!

    CS/Q:  nothing to see, haven't restarted temping yet this cycle. (But did buy a new battery for my BBT!)
  • I'm late to the party & it's not even 11 here... 
    @ruby696 yay for IUI tomorrow - GL & FX for you!! 
    @brookert615 hope you make it to the gym after work now - that's my plan 
    @inthewoods23 aw your kitty
    @emeraldduchess not to stoke your anxieties about late O, but I've had an OB & my RE make comments about later O not being ideal for getting KU, but it was mentioned in passing and never really addressed outside of me taking letrozole. They did say though that a CD18 O is TOTALLY normal, which is where I was usually landing. 
    @flowntheloop hope you got cardio in! Glad AF is almost gone
    @marebear15 Schitts Creek? Lol I'm watching it now and I do actually lol at it.

    @emeraldduchess FX your temps are just off or that you O tomorrow. My O date is usually between day 16-19, too. Makes for such a long feeling cycle.

    @chichiphin Good luck this week!!

    @lcking82 I took the weekend off from bumping for the same reasons. Sometimes we just need a break. We'll be around when you feel like joining in again. <3
  • edited April 2019
    @chichiphin I am not surprised that a late O is not ideal.  The only thing I have been able to find online outside of anecdotal evidence on forums is that a late O makes it harder to get KU because of timing. I think it's more than that, though. Some of the (not scientifically proven) things * read have mentioned poor egg quality or the uterine lining being too old.  But there isn't anything out there that says it's impossible to get KU if you O later than CD18. Most of my past charts show a big dip on o day, so maybe it's today. 🤞 Yay for your big follie! 

    @ruby696 I hate this never-ending WTO. Of course the TWW is even harder. :(

  • @flowntheloop I am always recommending people start journaling to cope with stress/sadness/any sort of overwhelming feeling, so I am happy you have started one. I have a little notebook I write down TTC related things in, like notes from websites and science-y books, a brief food diary, etc. It's more like if TTC were a class, it would be my notebook for that class haha. But I have a general journal for feelings/explanations of life stuff. Like, I wrote about Notre Dame and like AF's arrival last night. I don't think I could keep my TTC journaling separate from my general life journal, but if I didn't have the general life journal (I've just ... always had one) I might start one just for TTC!

    @emeraldduchess I haven't seen Dr. Quinn since like 1999, blast from the past! I asked once in CS/Q whether the weather had an effect on temps, and I was told yes--if it's super hot or cold in the house, your temps, no matter how you're temping, can be affected. Also, FF has a "tidbit" I read to that affect as well? I think? I guess that's why we HAVE FF though haha. If our temps were "normal," every cycle, we'd always be able to tell when we O'd ourselves... Anyway, sorry for the frustration.

    @lcking82 <3 we are happy to have you here when you can be here, but the most important thing is taking care of yrself, and I get that. <3 

    @ruby696 I also feel like we need to start watching that show now!

    R/R: Really unproductive day yesterday, as I got sucked into watching Notre Dame burn for a few hours. Today, I am hoping will be more productive. Funny story: we have been leaving the back door open w/ this screen thing to keep bugs out so the dogs can go in & out & the elder doggie brought us a present last night--a dead possum!

    @ruby696 Hooray for being done with injections!  I hope your IUI goes great!!!

  • @ruby696 for real!! The needle is like, 22 or 25 gauge, it's so small. Yet I have absolutely no problem when I get the flu shot or when they insert the needle for all these blood draws! Lol

    I think part of the nervousness is that it's not in a usual place to get a shot or pricked. And I also seem to have some kind of sensitivity in that area that radiates to neighboring areas which seems to happen most when I get a sense of arousal. It's weird to explain but I was telling myself it would hurt more than it did. I think I'm less nervous about all the stims in the stomach area since I can see it and my stupid fat will protect me... Fat is easier than muscle right?

  • @inthewoods23 The length of the needle and the fact that it was an intramuscular injection gave me so much anxiety. How could that not hurt?? I watched a YouTube video ahead of time and the woman was a GENIUS because she put an ice pack on the injection site for a minute before she did the injection. Best idea ever. I felt absolutely nothing. The stims in the stomach were NBD. I did have bruising after, but I think that was from me pinching my skin. There was no pain at all. You'll do great!

    I O'd on CD 18 when I conceived my DS. And my LP was usually 11-13 days max. Average was always 12 days though. I never seem to O before CD 16 and the latest I O is CD 21.  :)

  • @inthewoods23 I love the gif! Plus I love dinosaur stuff, so it's perfect!
    @puppylove8910 thank you for the encouragement. :) 
    Got a super-dark OPK today, so we'll see. 🤞🤞🤞
  • @shamrocandroll Aww thanks! I figure if I'm gonna do it, I may as well do it right! <3
    @kagesstarshroom It's been really helpful for me to just write something down every day. Helps me process all of the crazy emotions involved with TTC. Also, [spoiler] I thought it would be an educational and empowering heirloom to hand down to a daughter or daughter-in-law one day (if it ever happens, that is)[/spoiler]

    WAYDTGKU: Acupuncture, BBT, CM tracking, HIO 2 days on, one day off, Pre Seed internally.

    R/R: I'm 99% sure I'm 1 DPO today, but I won't move over to the TWW until I can confirm my temps with FF. If I am 1 DPO then our timing was -3, -2, O. The plan is to HIO one more time this evening and that'll be it for FW!
