Month/Cycle: 8

CD: 11

WAYDTGKU: PNV,BBT (when i remember oops), OPKs 

R/R: happy hump day! got a lot done at home over the past few days, and hopefully more today.  also trying to get some work done up front so being off for 1.5wks wont be such a headache coming back from.

CS/Q: being reallllllly relaxed this cycle, barely thinking about temping specifically, so my chart will be a mess. but not just gotta focus on HIO

@asf0613 I finally got all my dishes cleared out yesterday! Been so busy I can't get things done around the house

Month/Cycle: 3+ years

CD: 1

WAYDTGKU: repeat baseline testing and DH's SA, HIO in FW, supplements, attempting more exercise, GF and DF diet, taking care of my mental health!, and feeling like I'm missing something else

R/R: I feel dumb for even having a shred of hope that we had success this cycle considering all the BFNs and the major temp drop this morning haha. I mean, it was *TMI* brown when I wiped this morning and that doesn't happen so. Please tell me to stop being an idiot . Better remind myself after lunch to call the new clinic so we can get testing done!

CS/Q: nah, just a lonely dot today

@asf0613 good you are getting a lot done in person for vacation and that you are going to be about to get away. Sometimes taking it easy is the right time to do.

@inthewoods23 I don't think you should feel bad for being optimistic. I think having hope is a good thing! I'm sorry you are back here again, but I hope you find prioritizing your mental health helps you.

Month/Cycle: 4/4

CD: 3

WAYDTGKU: OPKs (1st time), BBT, HIO EOD (if we can manage it)

R/R: Tired, didn;t sleep great. DH was restless and it kept waking me up. Worried about AF, because yesterday it was like Carrie and now it barely qualifies as light. Really hoping this isn't the beginning of another wacky cycle and that AF just went and got it all out of her system in the first two days.  

CS/Q: only 3 days in, not much to see.

@DoubleUp8 sometimes my AF is like that too (or has been in recent months anyway). My last cycle was like that. Super heavy one day and then the next it was barely anything. I went from changing/emptying my cup every 5 hours to very little in the cup overnight. Went to using a regular tampon and that had barely anything after 8 hours. I don't believe it's any cause for concern though.

@inthewoods23 That's what I am hoping. Considering I used feminine products for 16 of the 33 days in my last cycle, I would appreciate the reprieve as long as all is good for TTC this cycle. Hoping between BBT, OPK, and HIO EOD (#couplegoals) that we have a shot!

@inthewoods23 optimism is good and never silly to have! however, CD1 still sucks so sorry for that
@doubleup8 sounds perfectly normal to me.  sometimes not worth questioning something that is a relief like that!
