Month/Cycle: Month 15, Cycle 10

CD/DPO: CD 28, 3 DPO 

Timing: Not sure what this is asking exactly…

Typical LP length: Not sure, I’ve never seen a positive OPK before.

Testing: We’ve always waited until a week after my period is expected, but since I actually know when ovulation was this time, maybe earlier? We’ll see what happens.

R/R: Ugh…a lot going on in my brain but don’t wanna share right now. 

CS/Q: Now that I’m not all over the place in my chart and know there was a peak, how do you stay calm during the TWW? I feel like I keep pulling up my chart and staring at it hoping this is actually going to be the time. 😬

@dmcg17 timing of sex around ovulation. so O-5 is 5 days before ovulation, O is ovulation, and O+1 is one day after ovulation. Other than that I have no chill during my TWW soooo I can't help you there other than Good Luck!!! I'm sure I'll be right there with you staring at my chart in a few days.

@stashattack Got it! So then timing would be -5, -3, -1, and O. 🤞🏻Best of luck to you too!

@dmcg17 Oh the wait is the hardest! I do the same thing, looking at my chart, comparing to old charts and charts on the internet. I hope the time passes quickly for you!

@dmcg17 hugs to you! I so hear you on the ‘lots going on right now’ front and hope whatever bumps are in your path fade soon!!

Hello again! Technically speaking I’m in more of an 8 week wait right now but missing engaging with you ladies so here I am!

Month/Cycle: 4/5 

CD/DPO: 25/10 - cycle 6 should be starting in just a few more days!

Timing: none yet. Husband is STILL gone!

Typical LP length: 13 days

Testing: finished my 3rd cycle of Proov PdG tests which really helped ease my mind a bit *TW* after a very unexpected CP *end.* Looks as though progesterone is just fine so I’m hoping we can move forward with one less fear come May/June

R/R: Mostly what I’ve already shared. I feel so excited that May is finally approaching. It feels like forever since he left and it was SO hard to accept that we wouldn’t really get a good chance to try after *TW* our loss in November. I work with a woman and really great friend who became pregnant just before me and I’ve actually felt so stellar lately because she has a full on noticeable bump now - just as I would had my pregnancy progressed - and despite working literally in each others personal space all day everyday I’ve really felt nothing but happiness for her and hopefulness for myself! *end*

CS/Q: Not right now

Month/Cycle: 5/5

CD/DPO: 15/1

Timing: O-1, O, O+1

Typical LP length: 11-13 days

Testing: I learned the hard way last cycle: DO NOT TEST UNTIL 14 DPO.  Knew better, did it anyway.  Hoping to avoid a repeat this time around.

R/R: Why am I always ovulating in the middle of the week lately?  Trying is so much easier on the weekends!

CS/Q: None yet.

@acarverrn Aw, man!  So sorry to hear about all you've been going through lately - and go you for holding up so well, and being such a great friend to boot!  So excited for you to get your husband back and start trying again in May!

@maggiemadeit Are you my unknown clone?  Every single cycle, I tell myself to lay off using the chart overlay feature on Fertility Friend to compare my chart to other women's pregnancy charts, and every single cycle, I fail miserably.  Such is my brain.
