Morning! Good morning ladies! Only 3 more days until Christmas!
Cycle/Month: 6/10
CD: 27
What are you doing to GKU? Temping, sex, started opk's
RRCS: cannot wait for some time off. 2 more days of work.
GTKY: Now that the Star Wars fiasco has passed, what movie coming out soon are you most looking forward to? My husband made me watched sw4-6 and I just finished 6 on Sunday. Planning to see if over the Christmas break. Next movie will see will be my pick so anything Romantic Comedy. We are not big movie goers.
RRCS: No temp spike today, surprisingly...Clearblue said peak was yesterday and the day before and today was negative, so I feel like O should have been yesterday, but maybe it's today. I think H and I did all we could to get in a couple sessions with both DD and all of his in laws around. It's too much of a hassle to get someone to watch her and then sneak off while we're on vacation so it is what it is this cycle lol.
GTKY: Now that the Star Wars fiasco has passed, what movie coming out soon are you most looking forward to? Not really sure. The last movie I was waiting for was the Martian.
What are you doing to GKU? bbt, cm, femara, metformin, pnv, opks (still neg) ed hio.
RRCS: Yesterday's ultrasound showed two follicles: 18.5mm and 11.5mm. So, likely I will only release one, but I'm happy that something is happening. Now, if only that lead follicle would eventually become a baby.
GTKY: Now that the Star Wars fiasco has passed, what movie coming out soon are you most looking forward to? It has already been released, but I am excited to see Sisters! I love me some Tina and Amy.
TTC #1 March 2014 BFP #1 April 2015 - MC 12 weeks, D&Cs on 6/17 and 6/24 DX: PCOS & Endometriosis Current TX: Metformin and Femara Lap to remove stage 4 endo - October 2015
RRCS: Still no O and nothing even close to a positive OPK. Please do not be a delayed O cycle again, please. We leave for vacation Thursday, so I really need it to happen before then so I don't have to explain to my sister why I need her to leave the hotel room occasionally.
GTKY: Now that the Star Wars fiasco has passed, what movie coming out soon are you most looking forward to? The new Jennifer Lawrence movie, Joy, looks interesting.

Cycle/Month: 13/13 (today is officially the one-year anniversary of the day I stopped taking BCPs)
CD: 7
What are you doing to GKU? OPKs soon, temping, sex, seeing an RE
RRCS: Started temping again - should get enough temps in to confirm O.
GTKY: Now that the Star Wars fiasco has passed, what movie coming out soon are you most looking forward to? I am not a big movie theater person - we go to the movies maybe twice a year. But I kinda want to see the Big Short. Or maybe Joy, bc JLaw.
What are you doing to GKU? Temping, EOD sex (we really need to get back into that in case I didn't O), Checking CP and CM
RRCS: Temp stayed up again this morning, even though I had to temp early because I got paged (fuck being on call while WTO). If I put in a similar temp tomorrow, I get dotted CH's for CD15. I don't trust that temp dip though for two reasons: (1) it was freakishly cold in our house that morning, and (2) I didn't wear underwear that night. If sleeping with your mouth open affects the accuracy of oral temps, then I wonder if underwear affects the accuracy of vaginal temps. If I discard the temp on CD15 after putting in a dummy temp for tomorrow, I get solid CH for CD12, which matches up with my CM, CP, and what I think was O pain.
GTKY: Now that the Star Wars fiasco has passed, what movie coming out soon are you most looking forward to? DEADPOOL! I cannot wait. The teasers and trailers look amazing. And Ryan Reynolds is hysterical, and adorable.

AFM: CHs this morning - off to TWW. Hope to see you ladies close to O over there soon.
GTKY: Now that the Star Wars fiasco has passed, what movie coming out soon are you most looking forward to? Not sure why RajahMD referred to it as a fiasco, lol, but I'm looking forward to The Secret Life of Pets and Joy, although we will most likely wait until they're in RedBox to watch them.
What are you doing to GKU? charting temps & CM, PNVs, sex
RRCS: The next two days are going to DRAG. Work is so slow (I'm not complaining) and I just want to not be here.
GTKY: Now that the Star Wars fiasco has passed, what movie coming out soon are you most looking forward to? Well... I'm looking forward to seeing Star Wars on IMAX this Sunday, actually.

Cycle/Month: 16/16
CD: 6
What are you doing to GKU? Waiting out AF.. and probably nothing.
RRCS: Yesterday my RE called me... Apparently, my cysts are not regular cysts. They are endometriomas. Great. So I have multiple endometriomas with scar tissue/adhesions, AND anatomical distortion (that sounds like a cool 1980s punk band, right?!) I also had a borderline TSH of 4.66, so I will be repeating that in 2 weeks and probably started on 25 or 50 of synthroid. I meet with the robotic surgeon on 1/8 to discuss when he will cut this crap out of me. Hopefully soon. Otherwise, it looks like I am officially headed over to the 3T board.
GTKY: Now that the Star Wars fiasco has passed, what movie coming out soon are you most looking forward to? DH and I will see star wars on 1/7, and we will go to see Sisters- which I am more excited about. I know they are both already out, but we haven't been to see a movie in a couple of years.
hydrangea1019, ((hugs)) sorry you are back here. LadyNymeria, GL!! skidevil87, I'm so sorry for the diagnosis, that can't be pleasant to hear. I wish you lots of luck with the surgery and hope that it will allow you to have an easier time going forward.
Cycle/Month: 2nd PP cycle
CD: 13
What are you doing to GKU? BBT, CM, EOD
RRCS: TMI but I'm really not good at interpreting CM. Most days I don't think it really looks like any of the pics I have seen of the different types. Especially the stuff that I sometimes *think* is EW...because it is not even close to being clear, even though it is fairly stretchy. I really don't know how to get better at this. GTKY: Now that the Star Wars fiasco has passed, what movie coming out soon are you most looking forward to? Lol I'm not really sure what you mean by "fiasco"--I thought that movie was outstanding! That said, DH and I are like once every two years movie people so after seeing Star Wars last weekend I think we're good for a while and can go back to being completely out of the loop on what movies are coming out.

Ugh. I am so sorry lady. I hope they get things scheduled quickly! I know all practices/hospitals are different, but they scheduled my surgery for about 3 weeks after the surgery consult, so here is to hoping!

Cycle/Month: 3/2
CD: 2 (period started yesterday afternoon)
What are you doing to GKU? Sex when my period is over. I'm also going to start temping this cycle.
RRCS: I decided to start temping this cycle and then of course completely forgot to take my temp this morning. I'm hoping I remember tomorrow.
GTKY: Now that the Star Wars fiasco has passed, what movie coming out soon are you most looking forward to? The Hateful Eight. It's getting a limited release on Christmas Day in 70 mm film and I'm hoping we can find a theater nearby that's showing it. If not, then we'll just wait until the digital release on NYE.
Hahaha. By fiasco I mean the media sensation surrounding the premier. I swear that's all I've heard about lately. As someone who's not a fan, it's a bit obnoxious.

Cycle/Month: 12/11
CD: 1
What are you doing to GKU: Nada for now.
RRCS: Not excited today. I didn't think we'd still be trying after this long and I know it's not nearly as long as a lot of you so I feel a little like an AW posting this. Took the day off and hopefully my mood will turn around.
Post by hydrangea1019 on Dec 22, 2015 12:07:48 GMT -5
jubilantsquirrel I usually don't temp during my period, but more power to ya if you decide to. GL temping for the first time thelittleredm ((hugs)) the whole process sucks. Hope your day turns around. GL in the TWW LadyNymeria!! ugaqueencity GL with MIL being in town. Drink all the drinks! ((Hugs)) skidevil87. So sorry about the Dx. Hopefully they can get things moving along for you!

GTKY: I have no idea. All the kid ones lol
I didn't think we would either. It's common to feel that way. I know most people hit that brick wall when the 1 year hits. big internet hugs to you.
RRCS: After my bad day yesterday, DH bought my flowers on the way home from work this morning. It was a very pleasant surprise. I officially have DS's cold, but I'm trying to make the best of things today.
GTKY: Um? I don't watch TV enough to even know what's our or expected to come out. Pass, next question.
Post by jubilantsquirrel on Dec 22, 2015 12:26:09 GMT -5
hydrangea1019, I was hoping temping during my period would help get me in the habit. I'm a zombie at 4:30am and I'd like to be able to temp without having to think about it. I'm guessing it'll take more than one cycle for me to get to that point.
Cycle/Month: 7/12 CD: 2 What are you doing to GKU? Bbt, starting clomid tomorrow. RRCS: Staying at Inlaws for a few weeks through the new year. Having a super heavy flow without the comfort of my own bed and shower is no fun! GTKY: Now that the Star Wars fiasco has passed, what movie coming out soon are you most looking forward to? I am a hermit and don't know what is coming out.
mikaela20 - Yay for time off! ellabee - I'm in the same boat...waiting for that temp to spike soon! ironbaby - Hah! Are you and your sister close enough that you could have that conversation? @sparky85 - Do you OPK twice a day? I seem to have to because I can only catch my surge at around 7pm it seems, but I keep doing on with FMU as well because I am a direction follower. hydrangea1019 - Sorry for CD 1. I hope the doc can give you some answers, and more importantly, some solutions! daisy818 - I'm sorry you've hit that milestone. It sucks. No way around it. Did they do a dye test on your tubes when they performed your lap? (Just curious because my doctor didn't do an HSG because she said they'd check it out during my lap...she actually showed my husband a video of the dye going through the tubes. Man, science.) LadyNymeria - Go get that TWW!!! FX!!! jwinct - I LOVE seeing movie like SW in an IMAX! Enjoy! ugaqueencity - Nice Bloodhound Gang reference. dashook - The CM struggle is real. I just keep plugging away, thinking it will get easier next cycle and that at some point I'll stop doubting my interpretations. But, NOPE. You're brave to have checked out pictures! jubilantsquirrel - GL with temping! thelittleredm - Sorry for CD1, lady. Patience is hard, especially with this baby making stuff. I keep telling my body, "DO YOUR JOB." britta - I am sorry about your cold, but "YAY!" to the flowers. watermelonseed - So close to the end of the week for you!I hope time passes quickly, but just until 5...and then it can slow down so you can enjoy the holiday!
TTC #1 March 2014 BFP #1 April 2015 - MC 12 weeks, D&Cs on 6/17 and 6/24 DX: PCOS & Endometriosis Current TX: Metformin and Femara Lap to remove stage 4 endo - October 2015
Carrot - Yes, she did the blue dye test but nothing came through my tubes So I went to the RE thinking my tubes were blocked, but he said that tubes that appear blocked with the dye test during the lap are not always actually blocked - he explained that sometimes all the pushing around of the uterus and other organs to search for endo can cause the tubes to appear blocked. The OB actually had also mentioned that sometimes the tubes will spasm during a lap and appear blocked, and that I'd need to have an HSG to figure out what was going on. So now I've moved from "very sad about my blocked tubes" to "cautiously optimistic about my maybe not blocked tubes." Plan is to probably do an HSG in January (and some other fun tests next week).
