Re: WTO Monday 9/14

  • Month/Cycle: 4/4

    CD: 12

    WAYDTGKU: ALL THE VITAMINS, BBT, OPKs, CM, CP, scheduled HIO EOD

    R/R: We start getting our new flooring today! I am so excited to get the flooring but a bit nervous about the impact it’s going to have on our daily living. They are scheduled for the entire week and have nearly our entire main floor, less our living room, to do. 

    CS/Q: TMI: the crazy amount of EWCM I’m having for the very negative OPKs is annoying.

  • @chindimples04 Yay for new flooring! What are you guys getting?

    Month/Cycle: 4/4

    CD: 14

    WAYDTGKU: OPKs, tracking CM, HIO EOD

    R/R: Feeling refreshed after this weekend! Ready to tackle another week :) plus it's ovulation week so I'm excited lol

    CS/Q: Hopefully this isn't TMI, but I have a hard time telling the difference between EWCM and leftover semen during my FW. Anyone else have this issue?

  • Month/Cycle: 2/2 AL #2

    CD: 11 

    WAYDTGKU: HIO, OPKs, BBT, PNV, CB fertility monitor, Tracking CM, FF 

    R/R: Lately I have been Mrs. Debbie downer so I feel like I don't have anything positive to say anymore or contribute :( Sorry guys. Got in a fight sat night with DH so that definitely didnt help my mood or bad anxiety lately. Still struggling with bad headaches everyday all day long and dizziness for some reason along with some other not good symptoms. I'm getting pretty tired of feeling like S**t everyday. I'm going to relax and take it easy today on my last day off. Being a bum on the couch sounds nice. Lol 

    CS/Q: None

    @chindimples04 Woo hoo for new flooring. That's exciting. What color floor did you pick? Sorry that's its going to be disruptive for a week. Hope it goes by quickly. 

    @lauren_0620 I'm glad your feeling refreshed. Yay for O week. Lefftover Semen and EWCM look alot alike so I understand your confusion in telling the difference. I've felt the same way at times too so your not alone. The EWCM is a lot stretchier and elastic like over the semen so I try to remember that when I'm noticing this and take note.

  • @lauren_0620 *lurking from TWW* One book I read suggested testing before you have intercourse that day. It suggested going to the bathroom and doing kegels to help clear out any remaining seaman from previous intercourse then checking. I have found that the kegels also make it easy to get a good sample of CM if you are doing a sweep to collect CM to check it.

  • @mindyb2019 that makes sense! Thank you for the tip!

    @DoubleUp8 ohh I like the kegels tip, thank you! I will try that. DH and I didn’t DTD today (was last night) but I find that there is still some leftover in the morning sometimes. Unfortunately this abundance hasn’t been doing anything to help so far 🙄 lol
  • @chindimples04 what kind of flooring are you going to get? From my own experience, if you do laminate... don’t use a steam mop. Don’t ask me how I know 🥴. 

    Month/Cycle: 4/4

    CD: 7 

    WAYDTGKU: timing, started FF 

    R/R: We just moved and I feel like the house is giving me a literal headache, if that’s possible? It’s a new build so I’m not sure why it would but I told DH after I got home from work today. No headache all day until then. Makes it hard to want to DTD though. 

    CS/Q: nothing much going on

  • @lauren_0620 @mindyb2019 @emmylou78 I got a composite stone plank for our main floor and a vinyl tile plank for our master bath. Our house looks like a fucking disaster right now. This is the current state of my kitchen....

    @mindyb2019 I’m sorry you are feeling in a funk. I hope you enjoyed your day off. 
    @lauren_0620 Happy O week!
    @emmylou78 it could just be the new space. New smells give me headaches.

  • @chindimples04 It will be so worth it! Can’t wait to see the ‘after’ pictures 😃
  • Month/Cycle: 2/2 not TTC until Nov

    CD: 11

    WAYDTGKU: trying to relearn my cycle. Waiting to do the OPK thing until next month...DH said I went overboard before and stressed us both out. So trying to keep my cool 😬

    R/R: my garden survived the snow!

    Rant: The pages for this forum load soooo slow on my phone and its a pain to use. Am I the only one? No other sites go slow. I also have a hard time tagging people for responses when on my phone. 

    CS/Q: nope 

  • @emmylou78 did they clean out the hvac system and vents before you moved in? 

    We built our home a few years ago. I had terrible allergies the first week. Then we realized the HVAC hadn't been cleared of the dust and constitution materials. So we asked for a new filter and a system wide blowout. Allergies cleared up after that. 
  • @mindyb2019 sorry its been a rough week. I try to remember that feeling bad sucks, but its also completely normal. Let it all out!

    @lauren_0620 I just check before doing the deed and the next morning. Takes away the uncertainty 🤣
  • @bmo88 make sure you aren’t checking when you are aroused. Arousal fluid can mimic cervical mucous but isn’t actually so it can give you a “false” reading that way.
