R/R: today should be O day! I triggered Saturday night. Yesterday sucked though. It was my dad's bday since he passed 2 months ago. my phone kept giving me a suggestion to call him because his bday is in my phone. It was a hard hard day for so many reasons.

CD: 11
WAYDTGKU: BBT, OPKs, CM
R/R: I’m just super tired and jealous that my husband took today off after we flew to NY and back this weekend for a wedding.
CS/Q: is it normal for OPKs to go from light to dark and back to light over the course of a few days? I’m totally new to this so I don’t know. I have only had one where the test line was even close to being as dark as the control then it went right back to being super light.
@bearmomma1 I’m so sorry for your loss and that yesterday was so tough for you.
@bearmomma1 I'm so sorry. That does sound like a hard day.
@iiirene hmm, that's interesting. I'm honestly not sure. I know other people have experienced that, but I don't know if that's the norm. I don't usually start my OPKs until CD 9 or 10 and then I usually O within a few days, but I wonder if there's a difference if you test longer.
Month/Cycle: 9/9
CD: 9
WAYDTGKU: BBT, OPKs, CM, clomid
R/R: MH is leaving for a work thing on Sunday night so I'm a little concerned about timing. Normally I O no later than 14dpo (which would be Sunday), but I don't know if the clomid will affect that? Let's hope it's a little early so we can have good timing!
CS/Q: Missed a day of temping cause we stayed over at MH parents house and I forgot my thermometer lolll but my temps feel less chaotic this cycle, so that's nice.
Oct '21 somewhat improved AMH (.51) and significantly improved FSH (8.9). Maybe it's all the pills I swallow.

Feb '22 FET (low-level mosaic): CP.
May '22 egg retrieval, lupron flare protocol. HGH priming for 1 month before stims; md lupron 20/20u daily; menopur 225, follistim 225, 10k trigger after 8 days of stims; AFC 10; 13 retrieved; 10 mature; 8 fertilized. All frozen at 2PN for later thaw, grow, and biopsy.
