Any thoughts about this cycle? Kind of just meh about it. MH has a random rash that is preventing us from having sex and I’m on CD 12 soooo (usually ovulate around 13-14)
Any questions? Nope
Rant/Rave? DD turns 1 next Tuesday and I can’t believe it. We are driving up to my parents’ house this weekend and they’re having a party with my side of the family. Then we will have a party with DH’s side at our house the following weekend. I feel a little extra but hey pandemic baby with no baby shower to celebrate her 🤷🏼♀️ We
went to Florida last week and although vacation wasn’t necessarily relaxing with her, I enjoyed all the quality time.
GTKY: Do you have a guilty pleasure? Also the cheesy hallmark type movies / any Nicholas sparks one.
@pajamstagrams oh no croup is no fun I’m sorry! Sending lots of popsicles and love your way. My kids have never had it. Luckily they got my hubby’s immune system and have only been sick a few times. Any other time in history I would’ve died by now lol I’m sickly. But I treated it a lot at childrens it can be so scary for parents! I hope she’s feeling better and you get some rest too.
Month/Cycle? 2/4
WAYDTGKU: seeing a NaPro next week and we are on the donor embryo list
WTO/TWW? Who knows I maybe ovulated yesterday we will see
Ages of other child(ren)? 1 & 3
Any thoughts about this cycle? I’m excited to see the NaPro doctor. I’m having a super hard time post weaning though my PPD is flaring up - it did last time too though it doesn’t last long
Any questions? Not really in a few days I may post my chart to to the Q&A thread.
Rant/Rave? I’m packing for our trip which I find so stressful but I’m really looking forward to relaxing. However it’s not the most financially responsible decision. It’s not a huge deal but we should probably have saved the money. It’s needed though we’ve been stressed out lately and and I could definitely use a pick me up.
GTKY: Do you have a guilty pleasure?
And it's definitely not extra to celebrate a first birthday!! Never a bad thing to celebrate with friends and family (provided no one has covid haha)
@daisy0322 yes she's mostly better, just a bit snotty (both physically and in typical toddler attitude 🙄) thankfully she didn't need the racemic epi in addition this time (just the 'roids), so it was definitely a milder case. And only needed one night in our bed, so that was a huuuuge relief.
Oh man, I love my kid free radio time. As soon as DD gets dropped off at daycare, the playlist changes 😂
I hope you have a fun time on your trip! It's always tough when you're stressing about finances but hopefully everyone can still relax.
@daisy0322 enjoy your trip! I feel you about needing to save the money but I’m sure you guys need a trip also.
Month/Cycle? 0/0
WAYDTGKU: NTNP until next month
WTO/TWW? Maybe TWW? I haven’t been tracking too closely this cycle and it’s my first cycle off BCP so it might be wonky.
Ages of other child(ren)? 6 1/2 and 2 1/2
Any thoughts about this cycle? We haven’t been preventing but I honestly have no idea if I ovulated or not yet. When I came off BCP when TTC DD1 I ovulated a week late the first month and missed the window entirely so it’s possible I haven’t even ovulated yet.
Any questions? Nope.
Rant/Rave? Only 6 more shifts left at my job (which I hate) before starting my dream job on 7/19!
GTKY: Do you have a guilty pleasure? Every now and then I’ll pick up a trashy romance novel in between books.

@b_1029 be extra and enjoy that party!
@daisy0322 I always have vacation regret right before I go-but you're right not only do you need the break but its memories! Hope you have fun!
@shortstack930 what is your current job and what will your new job be? That sounds exciting!
What number are you trying for? 3
Month/Cycle? 2/2
WAYDTGKU: CM, CP, temping, OPK
WTO/TWW? WTO
Ages of other child(ren)? 6, almost 3
Any thoughts about this cycle? Hopefully get a clearer O picture this month-I didn't do anything but CM and CP because usually I have plenty of EWCM and ovulation cramps but this month no symptoms no mucus, nada. Maybe its because its the first cycle post IUD being out?
Any questions? This might be dumb, and I could totally google it, but my temp was higher than usual this morning and I'm wondering if its because I was slightly elevated on my pillow and usually I take it laying flat. Does that make a difference?
Rant/Rave? My oldest is at camp and he's having a blast and there has been no complaint about his behavior.
GTKY: Do you have a guilty pleasure? Young adult and middle grade books.
Also glad I'm not the only one who reads YA occasionally. Gotta mix it up with the trashy romance 😬
What number are you trying for? #2
Month/Cycle? 7/7
WAYDTGKU: ntnp this month and last bc of trips
WTO/TWW? TWW
Ages of other child(ren)? 18 mos
Any thoughts about this cycle? prob a bust, way too much going on and stress
Any questions? natm
Rant/Rave? i'm just so tired post office move, and then my child must've brought home germs bc MH and I both are suffering from colds. and i still have slight is it a cold or covid paranoia
GTKY: Do you have a guilty pleasure? bad tv: bachelor/ette, married at first sight, some of the housewives
@pajamstagrams dude, the cdc is not joking about colds and stuff running wild right now. i think this is our 2nd or 3rd summer cold. this one is hitting me the worst, i think i'm just run down in general.
@b_1029 aww enjoy, i was so sad to be gipped of a first bday celebration for my DD. i vote go all out.
@daisy0322 that's exciting, i did some googling on napro. if you don't want to explain i totally understand, but how will that work with a donor egg? bc it's not true ivf, right?
@shortstack930 ooooh congrats about your dream job! so exciting!! i'm sure those last shifts will fly bys
@SmashJam i'm glad to hear camp is working well! i loved camp as a kid, even overnight camp.
What number are you trying for? 3
Month/Cycle? 1/1
WAYDTGKU: temp, CM, sex
WTO/TWW? WTO
Ages of other child(ren)? 6 and 3
Any thoughts about this cycle? This cycle I'm mostly trying to figure out when I ovulate. My cycle are "regular" but super long, like 34-38 days, so I need to be really meticulous about temping.
GTKY: Do you have a guilty pleasure? It's Pokémon. I pretend I know all about it because of my kid, but really I got him into it.
@pajamstagrams I'm convinced that bad colds in July are a distinctly daycare phenomenon. We got so many last summer when they went back after the covid closures
@b_1029 have fun at your birthday party!
@daisy0322 enjoy your trip!
@shortstack930 congratulations on the job!
@SmashJam Love YA and middle grade
Month/Cycle? 9 months
WAYDTGKU: Provera and metformin for PCOS
WTO/TWW? WTO
Ages of other child(ren)? 9, 5, 2
Any thoughts about this cycle? Since it's my first cycle on new meds, I don't really know what to expect.
Any questions? If anyone has used Provera or metformi , I'd love to hear your experience
Rant/Rave?
GTKY: Do you have a guilty pleasure? Mani pedi every two weeks. That's what I'm doing right now.
@SmashJam I loveeee YA and that is mostly what I read! I feel like being elevated in bed shouldn't really affect your temp.
@anniemarie887 we have had colds going on in our house for the last few weeks also! Hope you all feel better soon!
@wisewitch222 Pokemon is awesome!
