R/R: first official day of spring break! Waking up without an alarm and taking a leisurely shower was an excellent way to start the day. DH and I went and traded in our phones yesterday. We’re officially iPhone owners now which is definitely taking some getting used to (I’ve only ever had android phones). No real plans today other than doing some cleaning/laundry that we’ve been neglecting.
CS/Q:
R/R: 4 day work week woo! Coworker is at a customer today so I'm on my own. Hopefully it's still a pretty chill day. We're warming up a bit here but in a day or two it drops to 38 for a high. Boo. This is what I hate about spring, it starts warming up, it feels great, but then it starts getting cold again. My late April birthday has had temps near 80, and other times in the 40s so I never know *shrug*

@inthewoods23 cheers to a 4-day week - I love those. fx your birthday turns out with the weather you're wishing for!
@ReadyForaB congrats on your appointment! idk about you but I'm starting to really see that light at the end of the tunnel. whether you continue to TTGP or not is totally a personal decision; I opted not to wait and instead just drank lots of electrolytes and had a steady stream of tylenol and my temp never went over 99.7, but that felt like my "safe zone" for anxiety.
@BusinessWife eyyy get that vacay going!
Month/Cycle: 3/3
WAYDTGKU: bbt, cm/cp, pnv, opk (2 types this time!)
R/R: AF was gracious enough to wait until my vaccine side effect day subsided, a good thing because WOW that is no joke. I was prepared for fever and fatigue, was not prepared for the joint pain and muscle aches and headache. and MH is eligible for it as of this Wednesday and I managed to snag him an appt so soon he'll be able to join the vaxxed party
CS/Q: too early for anything
@inthewoods23 Enjoy that 4-day week! 💕
@ReadyForaB Congrats on the appt! Sorry, no advice as to TTA. I would just call your Ob and see if they can offer any guidance.
@BusinessWife my ob is not much help at all in this department
TW - Loss
I recently had a loss and when I inquired about getting the vaccine while pregnant (before the loss obviously) I was not given a yes or no answer. Basically I was told, it is an experiment, it is up to you. No guidance whatsoever as far an timing or anything. So, I am not even going to bother calling with this question.

@BusinessWife yay for vacation! Haha definitely save logging in until Monday.
@chgilmore sorry for AF but glad it waited until your side effects subsided. Was that your first or second shot?
@gingermama29 it's okay! that was my second dose, I didn't feel anything other than a mildly sore arm with my first dose.
@fantasyflyte your temps remind me of a rollercoaster lol! we support a clean and organized house if it makes you feel good!!!
