Waiting To Do Something 7/11

[nuggetrn]

This is the Waiting to do Something thread posted once a week (usually on Mondays - sometimes not) for those of us that experience long, extended cycles. Whether it's medicated cycles, long (45ish + days) cycles, postpartum/breastfeeding, TTA, on the bench, or something else, this is the place we gather throughout the week to discuss and vent about our slightly unique situation.

Numbers:

Circumstances:

RRNFNSQ:

GTKY: Is anyone getting a free slurpee today?

[nuggetrn]

Numbers: CD 81? Or possibly I had a "period" and I can start over? See below

Circumstances: TTC

RRNFNSQ: I took a course of Progesterone. I started spotting on like day 5 Or 6. Which isn't supposed to happen. And then now have spotted a little since finishing it. So did I have a period? Am I still waiting? Who knows?

GTKY: I am not. I have never had one, don't feel the need to get one. Was just curious if any one felt strongly about slurpees. Lol

[obi]

Numbers: cycle 2 this year. Cd39 11dpo

Circumstances: TFAS next cycle or the one after. Depends on how long this one goes. PCOS and type 1 diabetes.

RRNFNSQ: I am getting some serious baby fever lately which = impatient. I still would like to lose 20lbs before getting KU but I feel myself getting less worried about it the more I am feeling ready to get the show on the road. I know it is the right thing to do though so I am going to at least be on my way to the 20lb mark so I can maintain that activity level while KU.

GTKY: no slurpee for me. I dont have a 7-11 anywhere near me. I wouldnt be surprised if my H stops for one today though.

I miss this thread when it was big and long and we had lots of people.

I am partially to blame because I have been super sporadic as of late. Trying to do better!! Come play with us!

Hi obi! I feel you on the weight. I have lots to lose and I should. It would make pregnancy SO much more comfortable. But on the other hand, I've also got the impatients and have decided that I will make it through no matter what. I do need to ramp up my activity level though not pregnant so that hopefully I can keep something up once I do get pregnant again.

[obi]

nuggetrn ugh, being in a grey area sucks! Is that a question you could ask your doctor? Hopefully youre able to get some clarity on your situation.

Exactly my feelings. An old friend of mine just had her third/last baby and lost 30lbs since. She looks amazing and it makes me feel like "meh... As long as im not a lazy slug I can just lose the excess later" haha.

I'm not really sure... It seems like a silly thing to call and ask... Did I have a period? Lol. I might just call it a light period and see what happens next. I need to start temping again now.

[gabride2010]

Hai everyone!!

nuggetrn Definitely start temping now! Sorry for the period confusion!

obi I feel ya too on the weight loss. I would love to lose about 30-50lbs before getting pregnant.


Numbers: Cycle 4, Month 7, CD 33

Circumstances: TTC #1

RRNFNSQ: I got a positive OPK yesterday! I hope it's ok if I play here today. If not, let me know! I have gotten 2 days of positive OPKs before, so I will hopefully ovulate tomorrow.

GTKY: No slurped for me either. No 7-11s around me that I know of.

[obi]

FWIW I vote play here as long as youd like gabride2010!
Good luck this cycle!

[gabride2010]

Thanks obi!

[eucalyptus]

Numbers: Cycle 1 TTC, CD 32

Circumstances: TTC #1

RRNFNSQ: I just realized I might fit here better than WTO because I don't know what's going on. This is my first odd and long cycle since I started charting, but it's also the only cycle that included a lot of international travel with really poor sleeping conditions, so I don't know if I will be able to get a good coverline. I have definitely had all of the signs of ovulation twice, without the sustained higher temps afterwards... it's confusing.

GTKY: Is anyone getting a free slurpee today? Oooh I totally forgot it's 7/11! Maybe...

[eucalyptus]

gabride2010 , Good luck!!

[gabride2010]

Thanks eucalyptus. How long are your cycles typically? I hope you get a sustained temp shift soon!

[amandamh2]

Numbers: CD 27

Circumstances: TFAS, Bfing and getting a feel for what newly returned cycles look like

RRNFNSQ: Trying to just stay cool this cycle and remember that 28 days is not my number anymore so this week is not important. Next Wednesday at the earliest. I was definitely not this crazy when thinking about TTC#1 but since I'm a SAHM now and around babies and toddlers all the time not obsessing is much more difficult.

GTKY: I love slurpees but from Mac's and Co-op more than 7-11. No slurpee for me today. Fun fact- Winnipeg in my home province is the slurpee capital of the world, despite the long winters. Manitobans are crazy, we buy slurpees even when it's -40 celsius.

[obi]

I didnt know that about Manitoba amandamh2. My H must be Manitoban at heart because he has trekked through snow storms (literally) for a big gulp sized slurpee.

[gabride2010]

I hope your cycles are regular amandamh2!

[gabride2010]

Welcome b! I'm sorry for your losses.

RRNFNSQ means Rants, Raves, No Flame No Shame Questions.

Good luck with your upcoming appointments. I hope you get some good news!

[obi]

Hi b!
I am so sorry for your losses, and all the struggles you have faced.
I hope your appointment goes well!

They are usually about 28-29 days. This one has just been all over the place. I am hoping it's not my new norm 😐

[gabride2010]

I hope this isn't your new normal either eucalyptus. Bodies suck sometimes.
