R/R: I said this last night but I was on the phone alllll day yesterday. Everyone I talked to was so chatty. I got nothing done at my client, so I really need to focus today. The person I have with me really stepped up though and got through a ton of work. Picked up on my slack haha. Hopefully I can have a productive day today though. I’m not starting off well since I’m still in bed! Just really wanting to get through this week and get back in my covid bubble 😷 

CS/Q:

inthewoods23

Hello hello! Happy to have made it this far

@bows22 wish I could be like "the week is almost over!" but it's only Tuesday 😆 GL having a more productive day.

Month/Cycle: 1 AL

CD/DPO: 17/1

Timing: -3, -1, 0

Typical LP length: 13 days, although last was 12 so we'll see if it's changed with the loss

Testing: Friday next week maybe

R/R: Gave myself a nasty burn on my wrist yesterday from hot oil. Thought it might be 2nd degree burns since I had some raised bumps 😬. Eventually I let water run on it for a good amount of time and slathered on the triple antibiotic and wrapped it in some gauze. Looks much better this morning with only the spots that got contact with the oil are red. Minimal pain to the touch so everything should be okay.

CS/Q: very pleased with my temp bump

Eta: added spoiler

@bows22 oof that sounds like a rough day! I hope today isn't nearly as busy but is still productive!

@inthewoods23 oh jeez! I'm glad it's better today but that sounds awful!! So happy it wasn't worse!

R/R: I stayed up too late watching football last night. It was worth it though cause the Bills won!!!! But I am so tired this morning. We finished baking gingerbread cookies last night. I think we're planning to roll out the sugar cookie cut outs tonight. I also called my doctor's office yesterday and successfully pushed my appointment been to next Thursday instead of Monday. I should definitely know by then if I'm KU or not.

CS/Q: I'm expecting O day to move to Saturday tomorrow.

@bows22 good luck getting stuff done today! I actually have no meetings this afternoon or tomorrow morning so I too need to get sh*t done!
@inthewoods23 I have a friend who is a pharmacist who recently got burned by her toaster oven and she said that putting aluminum foil on burns helps! Wild I know, but after a few hours her burn was almost gone and the sting had gone away. 
@gingermama29 MH stayed up too late watching football and I was reading in bed until he came in so I in turn stayed up too late because my book was so good I lost track of time!

Month/Cycle: 13/13

CD/DPO: 29/4

R/R: I have so many sewing projects to finish before Christmas and zero desire to do any of them. People may be getting I.O.U's this year

CS/Q: Temps dipped this morning, but I woke up without blankets so I dunno.

@bows22 I hope today is a more productive one for you. I deal with eldery people for my job and get stuck on the phone all the time. It is definitely worse now with covid, everyone is so lonely.

@inthewoods23 burns are the worst! I am glad it is feeling better this morning.

legendairymomma

@baby_yoda1986 I wish I could sew. I tried it a few times but quickly gave up.
@krash_ the book nerd in me HAS to know what you are reading. 
@dobbysfavoritesock I love any Christmas movie. I just signed up for the Lifetime Movie Club so I can watch more
@gingermama29 cutout cookies are the hardest for me. I had a meltdown last time and hubs had to come do it for me 
@inthewoods23 hopefully you heal fast! 
@bows22 covid bubble 🤗

Month/Cycle: 14/14?

CD/DPO: I think I am 11dpo

Timing: 🤷

Typical LP length: 13 ish days

Testing: tomorrow...

R/R: I had to take the cycle off for dental surgery but hubs is convinced he knocked me up on Turkey Day. According to my app, I was fertile but I didn't track temp so who knows.  It would be suuuuch a shame if I got knocked up this cycle.. Eh universe? 😉

gingermama29

@krash_ oooh I'm also curious what you're reading! 

@baby_yoda1986 I can't get up the energy to start my Christmas shopping yet. I hope you can find your motivation.

@legendairymomma cut out cookies are a pain in the butt but so delicious!

Month/Cycle: 5/6

CD/DPO: 18/ 4? 

Timing: -2, -1 

Typical LP length: 12-14d? 

Testing: next Monday probably 

R/R: I keep thinking today is Friday. I slept horrible last night so I’m ready for bed already! 

CS/Q: does the regular FF give the cross hairs or is that a VIP feature? 

gingermama29

@emmylou78 regular FF gives CH. And ugh I so wish it was Friday right now.

bows22

@inthewoods23 very glad to see you over here friend! And yikes on the burn, glad you seem to be on the mend
 @gingermama29 I hope so much you get to cancel the appointment! I’m playing against Josh Allen in fantasy football so I was a little nervous about how well the Bills were doing but my other players did enough to pull me through! 

 @krash_ boooo I checked earlier today and was so disappointed hahah good luck tomorrow!  

@baby_yoda1986 oh my, you win with the old people phone calls. You are probably the best part of their day though! My temps were always affected by blankets too, so annoying. But if you confirmed O then your temps don’t really matter at this point! 

 @legendairymomma I love that your husband is convinced he knocked you up on a certain day. I hope he’s right! 

 @emmylou78 I don’t see ovulation in your chart. Do you temp orally or vaginally? Just wondering if you could be sleeping with your mouth open and skewing your temps?

emmylou78

@bows22 vaginally. I had a couple high temps early on with a cold I had. It’s my first month temping but what do you mean you don’t see it? Honestly, the opks and bbt have made this more stressful! I thought I knew my body well enough! 

@krash_

@baby_yoda1986 what are you seeing? 

bows22

@emmylou78 I don’t see a temp shift that indicates ovulation. The positive OPKs and fertile CM could be a false surge, but I was just curious if you really just had some bad temps the past couple of days and that was the reason. Maybe you didn’t put the thermometer in as far on the days with the lower temps? I’d be on the lookout for any more fertile CM just in case you do have another surge.
