Happy weekend ladies!

Month/Cycle: 36

CD/DPO: 25/8

Timing: -4, -2, 0

Typical LP length: 13 days

Testing: 27th

R/R: DH commented yesterday that he likes me in this happy mood I'm in. This is the me he wants. Then he made the comment that maybe my mood change is because I'm KU 😂. Nah, probably more likely due to my therapy appointment going well but I had the same thought too. Hoping to get my laundry all cleaned and put away this weekend and get some stuff in the trash.

CS/Q: happy my temp is back up but it's also hotter than hell outside so that could be the bump too.

Happy weekend and officially Happy Summer, everyone!🌞🌼🌷🌺💐🌸 @inthewoods23 So glad you’re feeling better! It’s great that your therapy session went well. And let’s hope that your mood is also up because you’re KU! 

Month/Cycle: 25

CD/DPO: 15/DPO 2 or 3

Timing: IUI on -1, -1, O (I think, forgot to temp day after IUI so idk)

Typical LP length: 10-13

Testing: Beta on July 1

R/R: I’m having such a relaxing weekend! After 2 weeks of intense work all day everyday, these days with no agenda feel amazing! 

CS/Q: Nothing yet. Still waiting to confirm O.

Late posting today, even though I've been up since 5:45. My phone died overnight because it wasn't properly charged so I had to wait for it to charge and then ended up starting on some of my weekend chores. 

@inthewoods23 so glad to hear that you're feeling happy and that DH has noticed. Therapy is amazing; I've actually been thinking about adding that to my "relaxation efforts" during TTC. BTW, how do you make OPK AM & OPK PM show in your FF? 

@keikilove good to see you on TWW. I hope your IUI yields results.🤞🏻🙏🏻 

Month/Cycle: 5/5

CD/DPO: 24/5

Timing: -4, -2, -1, 0, +1 (this month we decided to do opposite of what we've been doing thus far, which is every other day)

Typical LP length: 10-13; still trying to figure it out. 

Testing: nah -- lol, I can read the signs w/o needing a test... like cervix position. Also currently I'm monitoring my progesterone levels since last month I didn't have sufficient as measured by Proov; this month is looking good, but the real test will be when I test 7-10DPO. Plus I have a Day 21 blood test on Monday. 

R/R: Only raves today!

1) Follow-up on the "inactive husbands rant" from yesterday: last night DH suggested we go for an extra long walk today -- granted, for him that would be a 30-45 min walk. Normally, when I can get him out, our daily walks are ~20 min, but it's to the top of the mountain so fairly good cardio kick. So we went for a 40 min one this morning. Then afterwards, he's like "let's go for another longer walk tomorrow!" Where is my husband and what have you done with him?!?!? 

2) Each month I learn more and more about my body and how it works (as it pertains to ovulation). This month, one more thing I've learned but it'll be another 6-11 days before I can say for sure and that is: I suspect that my progesterone levels are going to be OK based on my resting heart rate measurements. My hypothesis is: progesterone increase positively correlates with increase in resting heart rate. Anyway, I will know more once I start testing with Proov. 

CS/Q: So now it's looking like tempdrop is starting to "learn" my pattern. According to my Premom bbt thermometer, my bbt has dropped last 2 days (still above coverline); but tempdrop is showing something different entirely. Premom thermometer = Premom App; Tempdrop = FF.

@inthewoods23 your temps are looking great! Not sure I believe in it, but maybe implantation dip? Maybe you _will_ be hiding a pregnancy come 4th of July 🙏🏻🤞🏻

Btw - would that be an easy thing to hide? Or would there be major give aways i.e. not drinking that would give it away? 

inthewoods23

@acleverusername I've drank.... Maybe 3 times since starting to TTC 3 years ago? I was never one to drink prior anyway so it wouldn't be weird.

The OPK AM and PM are under custom tests (I think is the name) in the settings.

@inthewoods23 that's great! I remember when my sister got pregnant, all of her friends knew by the time she was 6-7 weeks because she suddenly stopped drinking wine. Dead giveaway!

Month/Cycle: 6,2

CD/DPO: 49,14

Timing: Ehh.

Typical LP length: 14

Testing: Tomorrow if no AF

R/R: I'm SS uncontrollably. Last cycle, my period started at 2pm 14dpo. I feel hopeful since I haven't even spotted yet, but this morning started out with my classic impending AF cramps, though they tapered off and now I'm only feeling sharp pain on one side, and I'm not "out of the woods" yet. AF can come any time and break my heart.

My last cycle on Clomid, my period was late and I kept testing negative. My hopes were so high and I thought my tests were a bad batch. When my period came about a week late, I couldn't keep from crying. My very kind boss sent me home. I was so devastated that I'm trying to remind myself that I don't have a positive test yet so I should still expect AF to come. I don't want to feel hopeful because AF is late and then feel heartbroken when she arrives later than expected.

@mighty_montgomery what's your chart looking like? 

s_montgomery

@acleverusername I haven't charted so I am in the dark in that aspect.

inthewoods23

@keikilove yay relaxation! I have yet to work on the things I've wanted to do, but that's alright! It's a rainy weekend here so I may as well spend some time just chilling.

@mighty_montgomery I used to have that as well that my period would always show up right around 10am the day she was due. Now she seems to like to show up right before I wake up or late afternoon. Lame.

I'm supposedly 15dpo today, confirmed by Clearblue Advanced Digital Ovulation Test. I couldn't sleep last night. Took a test this morning and it's negative. At this point it's very unlikely that I conceived this cycle and I'm just waiting for my period to show.
 🙄
I'm looking forward to my day though. MH and I are visiting a different church this morning and we're excited! 😷

@mighty_montgomery it's not over until she shows. 🤞🏻

Well, bummer. Did another Proov test this morning and the line is darker than it was 2 days ago which means negative test. That means my progesterone is likely low. I'll know more tomorrow when I get my blood test done. But I'm pretty bummed out.
