Wisdom Teeth Removed = A Good Time

I got my wisdom teeth removed on Tuesday, and although definitely not the best time I've had in my life, so far it hasn't been that bad.  The nurse did tell me today would be the worst day though, so we'll see if my perspective of how bad this is will change at all by the end of today!

So far the only thing that is really bothering me is not being able to eat anything "real".  I was on a clear liquid diet for first 24 hours (water, apple juice), now I'm on a creamy liquid diet (soups, milkshakes, mashed potatoes, etc) until at least Friday.  It doesn't sound bad, but when you haven't eaten since Monday and have been on a boatload of pain meds, liquids really upset your stomach everytime you eat!  I actually cried yesterday, I was so hungry, but even a few mouthfulls of jello or mashed potatoes left me feeling so sick.

TTC wise, lately I've been really slacking on recording my temperatures.  I really don't know why.  I guess after 9 months of waking up at the exact same time and temping just got to be  too much and my brain subconsciously decided that enough was enough and this month it didn't really matter.  Sometimes I forgot to set my alarm, sometimes I just didn't reach for the thermometer.

So because of this, I have the most messed up chart I have ever seen for this month.  Lots of missing days, weird temperature fluctuations, sporadic negative OPK results, temps that were for one reason or another not kept by FF....but it still managed to give me CH.  Oh, and not just CH my friends, but solid CH which are pretty elusive to me.  Go figure, right? 


Oh and I was put under general anesthesia 6DPO it turns out (I didn't have CH until yesterday), and I've been on crazy pain killers since then.  It might be the narcotic medication that I've been on for 2 days straight talking, but I really don't care.  I'm not going to go through this recovery without my pain meds if there is a slight chance I might be pregnant.  I know plenty of people who have done worse and have had been further along and nothing bad has happened.  I know that might sound totally selfish, but after 9+ months of TTC and never even seeing a BFP, I've honestly stopped watching what I do in the 2ww.   I mean, that's how a lot of women do it anyways, it only seems to be us who are TTC and temp who take it to the 2ww extreme.  

When I get a BFP then that's when I will do everything to the letter.
