    Month/Cycle: 2/2

    CD/DPO: 27/7

    Timing: -5, -2, -1

    Typical LP length: last cycle (1st post IUD) was 8

    Testing: trying to hold out but let’s be real… I will test tomorrow

    R/R: I am just hoping that my LP is longer this cycle. If it is 8 days again, should I be reaching out to my OB? I have been cramping the past 3 days, so I don’t have much hope.

    Timing: -5, -4, -2, -1, 0, 1

    Typical LP length: 12-14

    Testing: BFN today to be expected. I have no chill. Gonna try and hold out until 12DPO again... But again re: no chill

    R/R: Just at peace with this cycle. Either way it'll be what it is. 

    CS/Q: nope

    @AmMcc12 I think it’s pretty normal to have a short LP in the months after coming off of BC or hormonal IUD. I know it’s hard to wait but I would give it another month or 2 and see where you are at. Hopefully your body will start to regulate soon.

    Month/Cycle: 19 since we started trying, but 5th cycle back after time off for loss/benching/etc

    CD/DPO: CD15/2DPO

    Timing: -2, -1, 0

    Typical LP length: 14 days 

    Testing: I always test too early and then torture myself with “what if” scenarios and google searches until AF arrives. I’d like to avoid that this month and wait for 12DPO but realistically I probably will test at 10DPO. 

    R/R: My acupuncture doc mixed me up some new herbs for this cycle, one for follicular phase and another for luteal phase. Unfortunately they both taste like licking the bottom of an old shoe 🤢. Also I wish we had tried one more time last night, but football got in the way lol. 

    CS/Q: I’m a lazy charter (no temps) but here it is so far.

    @maggiemadeit who were you rooting for last night? Or probably more accurately DH?

    @Ammcc12 fingers crossed for a longer LP

    Hi!  I intro’d on the post and wanted to jump in here.

    @AmMcc12 hey!  FX for a longer LP.  What BC were you coming off of?  Re: reaching out to your OBGYN when you get to that point—they’ll look at what might be causing a luteal phase defect (sure, it could be from coming off BC and needing time to regulate).  Treatment can be simple with progesterone or hcg (I’m guessing trigger injection?).  If still short this cycle, esp depending on how far out they’re booking, I’m team make-the-appointment-then-cancel-if-needed.

    @stashattack I’m glad you’re at peace but also FX.

    @maggiemadeit thinking calm thoughts for holding out testing.

    Month/Cycle: TTA 1/1 after IUD removal

    CD/DPO:  22/4

    Timing: zilch

    Typical LP length: we’ll see

    Testing: none

    R/R: Just coming off hormonal IUD and I have PCOS and long, irregular cycles and, well, rave—solid crosshairs!

    CS/Q: Remind me how we type in a spoiler box again?

    Well I finally got a reliable temp after being sick for so long and it was high, so it looks like I probably did O. I’m not exactly sure when, but I’ll go with the earliest possibility.

    Month/Cycle: 2/2

    CD/DPO: 22/8

    Timing: -5, -3

    Typical LP length: 12-13 days

    Testing: probably Monday at 10DPO 

    R/R: I’ve been getting a ton of nosebleeds the last two days, so of course I googled if it could be an early pregnancy symptom and apparently it can be, so that’s giving me some hope. It’s probably just the dry weather though. 

    CS/Q: chart in the spoiler

    @britters314 Glad you finally got some clarity. Confusing charts are the worst! I hope you’re feeling better! 

    AFM, I am half way through this TWW and I swear time is moving backwards…
