It's funny how it's the little things in life that mean the most...not where you live, or what you drive, or the price tag on your clothes... There's no dollar sign on a piece of mind, this I've come to know! *ZBB*

R/R: Hopefully we can get through the day without losing power! With 7 days left of school, a squirrel got into a transformer in our city and the power went out in the whole city. Not only did they not send our students and us home, but they came around and gave each classroom a flashlight. Insult to injury lol. It’s wednesday, and for that I’m thankful.
CS/Q: my body is a living Maury Povich show right now... “you think you ovulated... the temperature this morning determined that was a lie!” And I’m the inevitable character running backstage screaming and crying. Why does this cycle suck so bad?!

WAYDTGKU: EOD and tracking CM
R/R: I’m exhausted. I don’t know if it’s AF taking its toll on me or what but I’m over it. Rave is that I finally got everything taken care of for our tax assessment appeal and can cross that off of my to do list!
CS/Q:
@NYTino24 I’m glad that wasn’t your real O since I know you weren’t happy with your timing. That’s crazy about your test line showing up so fast, hopefully that means a lot of LH for a strong O (I don’t know if that’s really a thing but it’s what I would tell myself!)
CD: 15
WAYDTGKU: BBT, FF, HIO, PNVs, CBD oil
R/R: I usually don't O until 18-20, but CM is telling me I should maybe HIO today, just in case. I'm also giving blood today, since there's a serious need for type O, so hopefully I don't feel too wiped out after that.

R/R: This is probably my last day before I move to TWW.
Today is also my last day "off" since I work every week Th-Su. So I have another chill day planned. A little home organizing/laundry/tidying and 2 mile walk outside.
Yesterday my healthy veggie fried rice was really delicious. It is hard ignoring other people's needs to make myself nutritious food, but I am doing it! Baby steps!

R/R: Love just being in a good mood because it's not winter anymore lol. My dog was extra cute this morning and I was a couple minutes late because I kept giving her all the belly rubs she deserves! I have a super busy day at work and hope I can get as much as I can done because I'm out Friday and won't be back in the office until Wednesday!
CS/Q: So DH's visit with his doctor has him obsessed with "timing" so I guess we will do it his way this cycle since he's actually enthusiastic lol. He's dead set on waiting a full 48 hours so I'm HOPING that we will still have OK timing. I've never gotten four "high" OPKs ever on the CB Advanced and I my cheapies are barely turning so I'm hoping I at least O!

@NYTino24 good luck tomorrow! Hopefully nothing is thrown off from your cycle!
@MrsVP614 maybe donating blood will help you take a serious nap to prepare for HIO tonight
@brookert615 do CB Advanced work for you? I have PCOS and they never worked for me. I’ve debated trying them again but they’re also expensive!

WAYDTGKU: waiting right now but when we’re back at it, we’ll do Letrozole, trigger, progesterone, and possible IUI depending on scheduling. And OPKs
R/R: this week is going pretty slowly. I’m the most impatient person and I have to wait until next week to get my antibody results. Ugh. I have to order more OPKs which is always disappointing.
On a semi-exciting note (for me, not my coworker), the least like day person in the office got fired and I’m taking his office. So excited to be out of the cube! And one step closer to managing

R/R: I went to the doctor yesterday for an asthma checkup. I finally got the long-term asthma control medication. I am super happy as this will increase our chances of conception (studies found out asthma only controlled with rescue inhalers didn't control inflammation. The uterus is believed to also be inflamed due to asthma and making implantation more difficult). The only problem is that insurances don't want to cover it so the pharmacy told me the doctor will have to fight the insurance. My doctor told me this would happen. So now I wait.

@ejoseph16 I am sorry your body is messing with you but your analogy was really funny.
@bows22 good job with the tax assessment. I am sure you're happy to have this off your list. Taxes suck!
@MrsVP614 EW mucus is definitely a sign your should HIO. I usually get EW 3-4 days before O.
@bobbyflies2020 enjoy your last day off. Sounds like you are going to be busy. Good job with the veggie rice!
@brookert615 enjoy your long weekend! I am jealous! Good luck with your new timing!

@NYTino24 FX it doesn't mess anything up!
@bows22 Yay for things off the to do list!
@MrsVP614 That is so nice of you to donate blood! I've thought about donating (A+), but I had such a bad experience with giving plasma the 3 times I tried (blood squirting out and massive hematoma's). Then when I need a blood draw, if it isn't an experienced person, they have a hard time getting my veins. Also if they need to take several vials, my blood tends to stop flowing.
@bobbyflies2020 Yay for prioritizing yourself! It is hard and all you can do is keep making small improvements.
@brookert615 Hopefully you can still get good timing with his plan.
@mokay19 Yay for a new office! We actually had a person on my team of 7 leave or get fired (not sure) on Monday, it has made a huge difference in the atmosphere. Hopefully the rest of the week flies by.
@rikiteacup Hopefully the switch in medication helps!
Month/Cycle: 2/3
CD: 1 but I am ok with it since expected it with +1 timing. We have been taking a more relaxed approach to start out. We will see how this month goes.
WAYDTGKU: Just trying to heal my body to be in the best position to conceive.
R/R: Last night I went to a presentation at a new functional medicine type clinic and it was great! I've been thinking about making a switch because my current place doesn't seem to want to dig deeper into what is causing my inflammation and thyroid issues. They have helped me a ton in the last year, but I think I'm as far as I can go with them. I still have to do at least one more appointment at my current place to get my food sensitivity results. But I have an initial appointment set up for next week with the new place, hopefully they will have a better game plan to dig deeper. I am seriously bleeding money with this stuff right now, my FSA is basically gone already and I've had to put several bills on the credit card already.
CS/Q: Nothing to see.

@rikiteacup GL fighting the insurance! Thank you for providing the link to the study.
@mokay19 I hope you get your results soon--and congrats on the office!
@brookert615 So glad you're giving yourself an EXTRA long weekend! You deserve it. I feel like your chart looks like FF will confirm O soon based solely on temps? But I am not an expert.
@bobbyflies2020 I feel like the more nutritious food that people eat, the better it tastes to them? I'm glad you're able to make good meals for yourself at the very least
@ejoseph16 AL cycles are the worst. Hang in there! You & your body & FF will figure it out. Meanwhile, you've got us cheering you on!

R/R: Went to a reading last night, and from that wound up out at a bar/restaurant with a bunch of ppl from my dept. & hopefully they'll invite us out more often maybe & I will feel like we have friends this summer? Though, at one point, two (cishetwhitemale) dudes were trying to convince me free will wasn't real & I wasn't having it & I kept asking them why they were so emphatically trying to convince me & stressing that they had their beliefs (which were valid to a point) and I had mine (which are valid to a point--they're beliefs! Different than facts!!) and that was that. It was fun at first, but then I got annoyed by their persistence. Today, I'm meeting up w/ someone else from my dept. to work on our dissertations together, which I've mostly been putting off since the semester ended, so I'm glad I have an accountability partner.
CS/Q: nothing exciting, but here.
@rikiteacup My goodness! It's honestly theft! DH is allergic to bees so we have to get him epipens regularly and we have to get the generic because the name brand is just mind-blowing. Thanks for sharing that study! I need to read this, stat!
@kagesstarshroom Thanks girl! I'm hoping I O tomorrow - I just don't get what's going on because it looks like my body is trying to make something happen and it's still kind of early for me! Glad the reading went well and you're making connections! That's a little weird about the conversation you had with those guys? Enjoy meeting up with your colleague today!

@kagesstarshroom Can you say what your dissertation is about? I'm always so interested to hear about research topics! I have my masters and did an optional thesis in grad school, because I know I would eventually like to pursue my Phd as well.

I'm off of work tomorrow, and I'm getting a much-needed haircut. Also, holiday weekend coming up! Yay!
CS/Q: Nope.
@MrsVP614 I always count on my CM to tell me when it’s time. My cycles can be crazy sometimes.
@bobbyflies2020 I missed it if you mentioned this, but what did you make the fried rice out of? I’m always looking for healthier alternatives!
@brookert615 doggy snuggles are the best! Running late for that reason should be an acceptable excuse in my opinion!
@mokay19 I’m glad it’s not just me! This week has been dragging! Good news about the office! Congrats!
@rikiteacup FX that insurance will cover that for you! I know how expensive that stuff can be, and it’s amazing to me that insurance can not cover essential medication.
