Me & MH: 32 DS: 6/1/18 (Pre-E; IUGR; seizures; NICU) TTC #2: 12/2019 Sept 2020: HSG possible blocked right tube Nov 2020: Letrozole + TI - BFN Dec 2020: Letrozole + TI - BFP!!! EDD 9/18
WAYDTGKU: I really need to start my OPKs and tracking CM since I have been Oing on CD 12 but I have been lazy. We have at least HIO already.
R/R: awoken at 5:30 this morning so that’s fun. No meetings today so I think I might go back to bed, one of the benefits of WFH. 2020 hasn’t been all bad.
CS/Q: none
I’ll come back for tags when the rest of the world is up.

@krash_ oof sorry for the early wake up but I'm super jealous that you can go back to bed.
Month/Cycle: 16/10
CD: 48
WAYDTGKU: temping, prenatals, OPKs, and HIO of course
R/R: OPKs are still negative but I had unmistakable EWCM last night so I'm hoping O might finally around the corner. Heh, apparently all I have to do to get my body in order is start planning to get medical intervention. 🙄 I'm gonna hold off calling my doctor for a couple more days and see if O is actually coming. Here's hoping!
R/R: Rave - look at me go with our consistently timed temps
this cycle LOL I made coffee at home this morning, and again it came out better
than I was expecting. Rant – DH and I got a new TV on prime day, and I called
our cable provider to get a cable box for it. Apparently there was some weird
glitch on my account on their end, so they had to submit a ticket to get that
fixed before they could process adding a new box. I’ve been waiting two days
for them to call me back, and still nothing!
CS/Q: still about a week away from “expected O.” I am
intrigued to see how that lines up with the OPKs this cycle.
@daisy528 sorry about the TV, do you have something to watch or are you TV-less until it gets fixed (I'm such a boob-tuber I wouldn't be able to cope LOL that is sad for me actually).
Month/Cycle: 2/2
CD: 12
WAYDTGKU: temping, Opk's
R/R: Argh the winter weather continues!! It is miserable this morning - snowy and you can barely see in front of you it's so blizzardy. WTF!! On the positive side, I ordered an Apple Watch for my birthday and it should be here on Monday!!
CS/Q: Ah random temp spike this morning... super hoping it was a weird non-event because haven't been HIO and have had no other signs of O!! Fingers crossed.
R/R: waiting for a 12:20 zoom meeting to verify my name change for college. I got my official acceptance today and I am hopefully gonna sign up for a class to dip my toe in even though it officially started on the 19th
CS/Q: just some lines and hearts.
@krash_ boo for early wake ups!! Go back to sleep.
@krash_ hoping you were able to get a little more sleep!
@gingermama29 hopefully O is happening soon! Figures that it would work out that way
@daisy528 cable companies are the worst. So exciting about the Apple Watch though! I got mine a few months ago and love it.
@canucklehead123 I’m one of those weirdos that actually enjoys winter/snow but blizzard conditions are never fun. Hopefully the weather quiets down soon!
@legendairymomma what kinds of classes are you taking if you don’t mind sharing?
Month/Cycle: 1/1

WAYDTGKU: prenatals, OPKs and HIO
R/R: Still waiting for O but I only had to work a 4 hour shift today which was nice! Hopefully MH and I can take our dog on a walk later and get some fresh air.

@krash_ boo for early wake ups!! Go back to sleep.
@gingermama29 my body is the same
@daisy528 that's why I don't have cable. We just pay for internet and use streaming services
@canucklehead123 I am on the other end of the spectrum and can't go out without sweating
@gingermama29 hopefully O is happening soon! Figures that it would work out that way
