WTDS 12/5

[penguin129]

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: What is your go to bedtime snack?

[penguin129]

Numbers: N/A

Circumstances: waiting to have IUD placed

RRNFNSQ: I'm learning I set my expectations too high and things aren't always perfect. It is a hard lesson to learn. Also I'm buing ALL the things to finally make our house a home. I never had the energy to clean and organize when we moved in in March.

GTKY: What is your go to bedtime snack? some kind of yummy cereal. Tonight Froot Loops

[teraiin]

Numbers: 1/1

Circumstances: first pp AF arrived a few days ago sooner than j was expecting,

RRNFNSQ: I'm curious to see how AF is post pregnancy. Ive always been pretty irregular... I don't want to jinx myself by saying it couldn't get much worse lol

GTKY: What is your go to bedtime snack? Popcorn! Although lately it's been protein shakes based on Dr recommendation lol

[gabride2010]

Thanks for starting penguin129! I love Froot Loops. Have you tried the Froot Loops drink? It's Froot Loop Vodka (pretty sure it is vodka), and Rumchata. So good!

teraiin Glad your period came back! I hope your cycles are regular now.

Numbers: Cycle 8, Month 11/12

Circumstances: TTC #1

RRNFNSQ: The cycle that we started TTC started in Dec 2015, but I didn't ovulate until Jan 2016 (hence month 11/12). Strictly as cycles go, I had exactly 7 in 1 year. Over the weekend I made our RE appt for Jan 11.

GTKY: What is your go to bedtime snack? I don't really snack before bed.

[penguin129]

You're welcome gabride2010 . I haven't had that drink. I don't drink alcohol really unless it is a special occasion.

I almost started this yesterday but there was talk on the other one So I was not sure if I should. Lol. Thank you penguin129 for starting!

Numbers: CD18

Circumstances: TTC, PCOS and multiple losses

RRNSNFQ: I filled out an online form for an RE. Waiting for a call. I probably need to just suck it up and make the call myself. Filling out a form and not having to talk to anyone was a good first step.

I am terrible at temping. Getting back into the swing of things is not easy! I really want to know better this cycle when I ovulated. It may already be too late. Which is nice to be able to say... My cycles have been oddly regular since I started actually having periods again after the miscarriage I had at the end of April.

GTKY: if I want a quick snack before bed it is almost always crackers. Easy, no fuss. Now I want crackers for breakfast. There is no cereal in this house.

[penguin129]

teraiin I'm curious how PP AF will be too.

gabride2010 and nuggetrn Hugs to both of you. I am sorry you reached the point where you have to see an RE. I hope they can do something for the both of you.

nuggetrn We'll readjust to temping together. I'm getting the IUD put in soon, but I know of at least one person who got pregnant with the IUD placed. I am really afraid of being pregnant again and will temp to make sure I know what is going on with my body. So I'm just waiting. I hope it's ok if I stick around here ladies.

[gabride2010]

nuggetrn I hope they call you soon! Big hugs! I'm glad your cycles are more regular though.

Thanks penguin129! You're definitely welcome to hang out here.

I'm still here!

Numbers: month 2/cycle 3

Circumstances: I have finally stopped bleeding all the time. It's been almost 2 weeks. I was hoping I ovulated but then I started bleeding the next day. It wasn't just spotting either so it couldn't have been ovulation bleeding.

RRNFNSQ: I have finally night weaned my 1 yo. He is starting to STTN too. I'm kicking myself bc I should have started this a long time ago. My next obstacle is getting him out of my room and into his crib. That way me and the H can have a regular sex life.

GTKY: I don't have a going to bed snack. I eat dinner and then I'm done.

[bunnyfungo]

Numbers: Zero. 10.5 months PP and still waiting on CD1 😒
Circumstances: Breastfeeding
RRNFNSQ: Just side-eyeing my body. I went 10 months after DD2 before
I got my period so I'm looking at my body with jeopardy music.
GTKY: What is your go to bedtime snack? Is alcohol a bedtime snack?

[gabride2010]

Hi @babylentilbean! Yay for stopping bleeding all the time. That must have been really annoying.

Hi to you bunnyfungo. I hope your period comes soon. I think alcohol definitely counts as a bedtime snack!
