Month/Cycle: 6/6AL

CD/DPO: 19/ probably 4dpo

Timing: very good

Typical LP length: 10/11 days

Testing: when af is due

R/R: Well. I forgot my thermometer (which because the cabin was so warm, probably wouldn’t have been reliable anyways) and wasn’t able to confirm O. So I temped this morning at home, but was definitely on the cooler side and my temp reflected that. Andddd now I don’t really know what to think. Otherwise we had a really good weekend and everyone stayed safe.

CS/Q: Should I just assume O is where it usually would be and actually happened? For the sake of my sanity? 😅 I don’t have a history of anovulatory cycles. I think that’s what I’ll do. I *feel* like it happened…

Lurking from wto @paytonpedro yes I would just go with CD15 as O. Btw your timing is making me exhausted hahaha

paytonpedro

@bows22 thank you for answering my question!! I just switched ff to opk only for the moment and it yelled at me. Lol. Yeah, we got a chance this cycle to really…enjoy… each other. Lol. 

Paturkey

@paytonpedro I'm glad you had a fun and safe weekend! I would agree with bows and go for CD15 for O, just try to mentally prepare yourself for a longer LP in case it was later (though OPK looks good for it).

Month/Cycle: 3/3

CD/DPO: 24/12

Timing: -2, O, +1

Typical LP length: 11, but apparently maybe 12.

Testing: BFN today. Now WFAF.

R/R: I'm going out with a friend to a pub tonight to gather intel for my job interview on Thursday so wanted the all clear for a pint- I got it. AF should be due today but if FF was right about O last month then my LP was 12 then so maybe I'm just destined for nice symmetrical 12 FP/12 LP cycles? I would certainly find that mathematically pleasing if so. So rant: BFN, rave: pub date with my buddy. Swings and roundabouts as they say around here. 

CS/Q: Nay. My chart is ugly this month but clear. No tricky 'triphasic' BS either, just nice and rocky 

paytonpedro

@Paturkey thanks! I made ff acknowledge O was the cd15. I’m definitely going to keep in mind it could be off. 

Im sorry about the bfn, but have fun at the pub with your friend! So weird, I’m in such a thanksgiving/ holiday state of mind- I was like Thursday is a weird day for an interview! Lol. But anyways, best of luck with it!!

annanbby

@paytonpedro Wow that timing haha that's great though, and I agree, it sounds like O has already happened.

@Paturkey Ugh, sorry for the BFN, but sounds like a fun night to look forward to!

Month/Cycle: 3/3

CD/DPO: 17/4

Timing: -2, -1, O

Typical LP length: 14-16 days

Testing: Probably around Dec 5 if AF doesn't show.

R/R: Three. Day. Work week. That is my rave today lol Also, my husband wouldn't let me decorate for Christmas until after Thanksgiving this year, but he said we could decorate as soon as we get home on Thursday from our family's houses, so I mean, okay I guess haha

CS/Q: That little dip this morning makes me uncomfortable, but anyway, had a pretty clear shift and great timing this cycle, so that's exciting. 

paytonpedro

@annanbby hey dpo buddy! Your chart is much prettier than mine! I wouldn’t worry about the dip quite yet, as long as it goes back up tomorrow. Yay for a 3 day work week! I am team no decorating for Christmas until after thanksgiving lol. We usually decorate the weekend after.

*lurking*

@paytonpedro I second @bows22 comment re: your timing this month. So happy you and YH just enjoyed each other. I want to go back to those days! (My anti-anxiety meds are a major barrier.) For now, I'll be happy for others. 

annanbby

@paytonpedro I’m actually kind of impressed with my chart since last month it looked a little chaotic haha Hopefully yours will get clearer in the next couple days!!
Definitely hoping to see a better temp tomorrow morning. 
I used to always wait until after Thanksgiving, but something switched in the last few years and now I just want more Christmasy-time in my life 😂

paytonpedro

@acleverusername ok now I’m kinda embarrassed 🤣🙈 I might also have a smidge of a problem with wanting it all the time. So lucky for me this cycle worked out. I’m so sorry your meds are creating a barrier! That’s how I felt years ago on bc and I’ll never use it again.

@annanbby I’m hoping we both see better temps tomorrow! I guess I hear you on wanting more Christmas, one month is really too short to be joyful lol. But thanksgiving is my favorite so I just hate that it gets overshadowed lol. Maybe I’ll incorporate Christmas music a little sooner, would that count?

Paturkey

@annanbby Go for all the Christmas decorations!! I approve 😂 The more the merrier.

@paytonpedro Lol, I know. My best friend thought it was hilarious that my interview is on Thanksgiving and I'm all, "Just another Thursday..." 😁
