I had one drink last night. ONE. But I think it was deceptively strong under the sweet, because I had a killer headache all night, couldn't sleep much, and woke up with a pathetic hangover. And ALL I wanted for that was a McD's sausage biscuit and diet coke.
So that is exactly what I had. And every time I go to the gym, my trainer asks me what I had for breakfast. I might actually lie to him today. lol.
I met with my trainer slightly hungover once and after throwing up in the locker room I enacted a very strict, not even a sip of alcohol on the nights before training policy. She however, thought it was hilarious but she's a trainer so she's obviously a sadist.
I can already feel myself becoming a ttc crazy. I started entering data (not temps) on FF, and downloaded the app to my phone. I am considering temping because it's just not as satisfying to look at the chart w/o the temps on it. lol noooooo
Ugh, I'm sorry pantsparty. I think he misses you and wish he was in Seattle with you. It doesn't excuse his behavior, though. Unacceptable. I'm sorry he's acting like a jealous meanface, and I hope he ends the silent treatment soon and apologizes profusely once he realizes how ridiculous he's being. If not, just rent a car and drive a few hours south and come stay with me! I hope your day gets better. xoxo

I just downloaded the app, too! And ordered a thermometer from Amazon. Uh oh.
She got loads of comments, but the one that stuck out most was the one saying that letting your child CIO is the same as a husband beating his wife so that she wouldn't talk to him during the soccer game. Mmmk.
Wtf? I hope she was called out for that comment. A lot of people who use CIO really struggle with it and use it for last resort so seeing a comment like that could really hurt someone (as in, the person who posted it in the first place, for starters)

Temping was not really that bad, and I wasn't very strict about it. I just temped whenever I woke up as long as I'd been sleeping for 4 hrs or more. I got a few wild readings, but there was enough consistency to pinpoint ovulation. And it was fun to see the charts forming. Or maybe I just have rose-colored glasses looking back and it actually sucked. lol
That's good to know! Hopefully it won't suck that much. I'm so excited for a tambbaby#2! I hope you have another girl! Haha.
I'm mostly worried that temping won't be accurate for me bc I travel so much. TCOYF is scaring me because I feel like she's said 10 times already that traveling affects your temps. I'm only really worried because I'll be charting to semi-avoid at first (though again, since I travel so much, I probably won't be home during the window anyway, so I'm sure I'm worrying for no reason).

Oh she was. Though most of the other commenters were pretty much calling my cousin a bad mom, so there was not a lot of understanding.
But that comment was not polite disagreement. It was just offensive.

Me too!
If I were TTA, I probably would have been a lot more concerned about having a perfect chart! Charting to avoid scares me, and I have pretty regular cycles. Just don't have unprotected sex until after you have had 3 consecutive higher temps around the middle of your cycle. Also monitor your CM. That is a great indicator for me.

That's terrible Do those people want to go to your cousins house every night and deal with the sleep issues? If not then they should stfu
Since I discovered Jockey Skimmies, I want to wear skirts all the time. They are the best things ever.
Aren't they? I love them. And for $20, why not? They also help smooth things without rendering you unable to breathe. They are, by no means, a fat sucker but they do help in giving that feeling of being held in place.
I am having a sad trombone day today. My H and I are in some sort of weird not talking thing after he said yesterday that he doesn't think he wants a second child because he's pretty miserable with the way our life is now and that made me really really sad. I'm really frustrated about my weight and my total lack of motivation to change it. My mom told me last night that my old cat, who was like 18, died before Easter but she and my dad didn't want to upset me by telling me so they have been lying to me for months now when I ask about how she's doing. I hate my job and am not having much luck finding a new one. I'm just all womp womp today.
Yeah, I kind of just decided to start ttc yesterday. Well, I have been feeling like I want to for a few weeks, but I was being sensible and waiting until I signed back up for STD. But that won't go into effect until JANUARY, and I just can't wait that long. I'm just going to save my leave, and save the $ I was going to put into STD to cover any additional weeks. And if I'm not pg by October, I'll sign up and then stop ttc until Jan. We supposed to be not really TRYING right now and just having fun... but who am I kidding, we are trying.
Tamb. Weren't you just posting recently that you resented your H because he has more freedom than you since you had the baby? And you make it fairly clear that you don't like being married to your H all that much. Why are you trying to make another baby right now?
sorry pants. just for another perspective, sometimes when h is working a lot of hours and has work events ( dinners with clients, etc), I miss him, which sometimes manifests as jealously of his coworkers. I try to check myself about that.
I'm having two soft pretzels and a beer for lunch. H asked me to make him a doctor's appointment - he can't get to a phone at work today. It wouldn't be a big deal, except that he hasn't seen a doctor since we put him on my insurance and the doctor he chose last Oct. has since stopped seeing new patients. I kept bugging him to go in for a physical and now he's stuck with a doctor with shitty ratings. And the woman making the appointment was an idiot who kept asking if I'm sure we don't have a home phone and other really stupid questions. Then I had to call our insurance to change his PCP to make sure the visit will be covered. I have no idea why this is aggravating me so much. I think I need a massage or another beer.
My mouth/throat still hurts from canker sores so I can't eat anything but mushy foods. My co-worker is noisily crunching potato chips and I'm sad that I can't have any. I just want real food! I'm hungry and tired of yogurt, applesauce, and oatmeal.
On a more positive note, I just watched the first episode of Orange is the New Black on Netflix. It was really good. But I have a bit of a prison fetish, so there's that.
