Any thoughts about this cycle? It’s our last cycle before I talk to my doctor about bloodwork and next steps so I’m just trying to focus on not stressing too much (ha! Right.). I ended up on Clomid for 3 cycles last time so that will likely be the next step after bloodwork (assuming they are allowing it during COVID) but I’m trying not to think too far ahead.
Any questions? Nope!
Rant/Rave? None this week.
GTKY: What is something you can do this week to de-stress? I want to start walking in the mornings before it gets too hot. I haven’t been active for months and I know I’ll feel more like myself if I start doing something!What number are you trying for? 2
Month/Cycle? 2/2
WTO/TWW? TWW
Ages of other child(ren)? 15 months
Any thoughts about this cycle? Timing was really good, OPK was really dark, I’m cautiously optimistic! :-)
Any questions? Nope!
Rant/Rave? I totally f’ed up temping this morning, of course at 2dpo so I don’t think I’ll be able to for sure confirm O this cycle, but everything else my body is doing is telling me I did, so I’ll just have to rely on that. Oh, and I finished my master bath vanity project today! Flooring company comes tomorrow to quote new flooring for our main level and master bath. I’m so ready!
GTKY: What is something you can do this week to de-stress? My house feels like a constant pig style and I’m over it! Its a major cause of stress in my life. So, I’m on a purge spree and have been selling things and decluttering left and right. I’m ready to make this house feel like a home again!Me: 26 DH: 27

@gusgus14 im so sorry you’re struggling. Hoping for success this cycle so you don’t need to go down that road again.
@kvh22 my midwife said the PNV was plenty enough for TTC while breastfeeding. That and a well balanced diet.

@ashaislurking ugh I'm so frustrated by your cycle I can only imagine how you're feeling. It sounds like you're doing all the right things and advocating for yourself. Sorry about the insomnia but I hope you got through to your OB. And great job this semester!!!
@gusgus14 walks in the morning would be sooooo nice! Hopefully you don't need to go back to your OB but glad you have a plan! Now im tempted to put my coffee in a to go cup and get my girls in the wagon for a walk before I start working (west coast over here).

@chindimples04 I feel like I'm on a constant quest to de-clutter and still somehow surrounded by clutter. It's a lifelong battle with stuff.
@ashaislurking Frustrating about your period but wtg with the school work! It's always empowering to feel on top of it.

Any thoughts about this cycle? Just hoping to O soon. I am already exhausted by trying to have sex so often and we just started. I started having EWCM (a little bit) like last Thursday but still no positive OPK. Idk how people with kid(s) maintain this for months and months. Maybe next month if I temp I'll have a better idea of when to time sex so I won't feel like we need to hio every other day (not that we've even been managing it that often tbh).
Any questions? none right now
Rant/Rave? My son is taking two naps today, praise be.
GTKY: What is something you can do this week to de-stress? This is a good question. Does a daily bowl of ice cream count? If so I'm crushing this de-stressing thing. I am cutting myself some slack in the exercise department because 1) I lost my bike helmet and need to buy a new one 2) It is ten million degrees outside even at 7am 3) We don't have daycare and I'm tired all the time. I know it would make me feel better to exercise, but I just haven't managed it lately.Me: 26 DH: 27

DH and I organized the girls' toys last night and they played SO MUCH BETTER today with less in their face. It was actually amazing. I'd been slowly pulling things out but didn't remove enough for it to not be a disaster after 5 mins still. I moved our coats out of our living room closet and put some clothes organizers in there and filled those with toys that I can rotate. We're in a small apartment we never meant to be in this long but are trying to move across the country soon so I don't want to buy any more storage. I'm hoping this helps us keep up with the organizing. And DD1 starting daycare part time Monday might help.
