Beginning of the cycle 10/6

[Jalapeñomel]

Post here if you are at the beginning of your cycle or waiting to ovulate. 

[Jalapeñomel]

I've been having all these crazy sex dreams, and I'm on my period. What a cruel joke!

I have my SHG scheduled for Wednesday afternoon.

Checking in!

This is my first cycle temping and taking OPKs. I actually find it really fun (thought it would be stressful). My temp times are all over the place but I’ve been experimenting and have found that when I take it multiple times (immediately upon waking 2-3x/night) there are very seldom notable changes

I know there’s nothing to see yet but I’m excited to have a chart to share 🤓

[Jalapeñomel]

tacom analyzing charts is fun!

CD5 day 3 of Femara here. I’m not the hopeful this month because we’ll be staying with friends during most of my fertile period... but what EWCM I get comes early, so maybe that will be better timing anyway? We’ll see.

[Jalapeñomel]

My period is so heavy this month. It’s pissed about last month. 😫

[melsamoony]

Cd1 and now having all the feels. Oh I love you hormones.

I hear you melsamoony All the feels.

[melsamoony]

So glad to have you lovely ladies to keep me company as I deal with cd1...and cookie butter oreos.

Trust they are awesome.

CD1. LP was 11 days. Was it B6 that's supposed to help lengthen It?

[compassrose]

@pennycandy, yeah, that's really short. I think a B vitamin helps, but I'd maybe ask your doctor about a couple of days of progesterone supplements.

I had to postpone my SHG because I still have my period! Wtf.

DH had his sample done today, so it’ll be interesting to see what they say about that.

WTF indeed. That sucks.
I hope your DH’s numbers are great.

What are we drinking? I am drinking a whiskey sour my new go to.

The benefit of not being pregnant I get to use the 4 lemons I bought for drinks.

[compassrose]

I had a beer with our department speaker last night. I plan to drink all the wine this weekend when we go visit SO’s BFF and his wife.

[melsamoony]

This cycle my cramps feel like diarrhea. Not a fan.

Apple Crown Royal is amazing. I may need to stop at the liquor store.

[tacom]

I don’t like this as much anymore. Hah.

CD 16, No positive OPK and my cervical mucus keeps changing between fertile and not. 😐


I just would really like to confirm ovulation!!!!!

[tacom]

My chart

I threw out CD 13 temp because my family (visiting for the weekend) kept me out waaay past my bedtime and sleep was awful.

[Deleted]

I feel like complete crap this week and kind of just want to go to bed and cry.

[melsamoony]

@pennycandy I feel ya. Cramps, stomach ache, hormones, blaaaaaaaah

[tacom]

I got my first positive OPK ever!

Hellish week at work and my husband’s first ED trip last night (he’s fine). This was a welcome surprise after 18 negatives

[compassrose]

I finally have clear EWCM without any creamy this cycle. About time!

[RITS]

Hi. I’m back. With DH gone last month I didn’t want to think about TTC at all to make the time go by faster. I should be ovulating in the next few days. Fingers crossed this is it.

[compassrose]

I had some spotting today, which I never have mid cycle, so I’m thinking I ovulated early at CD11 today. Guess we’ll see tomorrow

[katespade]

CD1 here, and all I want is sugar. I need some candy in my life and I need it right now.

Stupid no sugar diet.

Unfortunately, I'm not a dark chocolate fan. What I want is Sour Patch Kids. lol. I almost bought some while I was at the store today, but decided to be good and skip them. I do have some Halo Top ice cream in the freezer, though...

[compassrose]

No temp rise this am (not unexpected. Given the last two months, it would be tomorrow or Monday), but no EWCM anymore and I’m still spotting. I’m perplexed.
