**This is a thread that welcomes all regardless of where they are at in their TTC journeys. Please be mindful of topics that are discussed that could be hurtful to those going through tough times. Mention of children or pregnancies of others should have a TW (trigger warning) and be in a spoiler if possible, and only be mentioned if it is extremely pertinent to the conversation. Thanks for keeping this a safe place for us all to engage!**

Re: TWW Wednesday 11/25
Month/Cycle: 6/6
CD/DPO: 25/10
Timing: -2, O
Typical LP length: 11
Testing: Friday if AF doesn’t show
R/R: I got almost all my project done yesterday so today I’m going to finish decorating for Christmas! DH still feels super awful without Advil in his system, so he’s still home from work. He was supposed to start training for his new job this week but obviously that’s not happening. I just hope he feels better soon. He almost never gets sick, so it’s weird seeing him down and out.
CS/Q: Well, that’s either an implantation dip or AF is showing up early. 😔
Me: 26 DH: 27
TTC #1 | June '18-August '18 | DD | Born April 21, 2019 | Due May 10, 2019

Month/Cycle: 6/5
CD/DPO: 28/7

R/R: I made a wonderful and terrible decision last night to stay up until 1 AM finishing The Queen's Gambit
Wonderful in that I loved it so much, terrible in that I still had to work a half day today. But, as of this moment I am officially off until Monday! Thank goodness. MH and I pulled up all the Christmas decorations out of the basement last night, so that's on my agenda for this afternoon -- along with laundry and cleaning. I'm excited! And hopefully I'll be distracted from TWW and testing.
CS/Q: Weird zigzagging happening but the first one is a truly late temp and the second one.. IDK? I had our heating unit on at 62 which is low, but I woke up all sweaty. We have such a heavy winter blanket that I keep it off most nights and I think I should probably just continue that.
@fameonmain2 DH and I had to really really pace ourselves with the queens gambit haha! I totally get how you stayed up late to finish it...it was so good!! Enjoy the long weekend and Christmas decorating 😊
Month/Cycle: 13/11
CD/DPO: 25/5
Timing: -3, -2, 0(IUI), +1
Typical LP length: on progesterone so at least 14
Testing: a week from today at the absolute earliest
R/R: DH and I are trying to figure out our Thanksgiving morning plans. Usually we run a 5k with my family, but that’s obviously cancelled. So my family had decided to do our own 5k but now it’s supposed to rain. Do I really want to do an optional rainy 5k tomorrow? No. Is it tradition? Yes. So we shall see haha!
CS/Q:
@fameonmain2 The Queen's Gambit is sooooooooo good. I read an article saying that enrollments in online chess classes are way up because of that show.
