4 DPO

& I just feel fat.

I hate this part of the cycle regardless of TTC or not. The natural surge of progesterone just makes me super bloated and constipated and blah. You're welcome, I know you all wanted to know I can't poo.

At the advice of a trusty follower, Courtney and I bought a puzzle...not just any puzzle a 2000 (!!!!!) piece puzzle. Of course we couldn't just get any 2000 piece puzzle, we had to get "Starry Night" I have always loved that painting...so why not? We even bought some puzzle glue stuff to preserve it when we finish it! I think we may start on it this evening. The dining room table is ready for us to get started!

Like the title says, I am 4dpo today. FF tried to say I was 3dpo today...but I went ahead and manually changed that business to the correct day. My temp was the lowest, I had ovulation cramps, and all the other lovely signs Thursday, nothing on Friday (but because my temperature took a day to make that spike, FF decided I didn't actually ovulate til Friday. This is the closest timing we've had for an insem. out of all 3...just two days early, let's hope that's all the difference we needed to get a sticky bean! I started taking my progesterone supplements last night...it tastes horrible. It is a liquid and I have to take 5 drops every AM & PM. gross.

So in a couple of days when I start to notice "symptoms," I can just attribute them all to the nasty progesterone supplements. For now, I am sitting at my desk with my pants undone so I'm not suffocating.

Keep sending us that BABY DUST!!!!
