Testing: yesterday (so I wouldn't feel guilty about cheat day wine last night). Going to try to hold off until Thursday before I test again.
R/R/CS: My chart looks all icky with a massive temp drop thanks to stupid night shifts still hovering just above the cover line but it makes me anxious to look at it. Ugh.
GTKY: Based on the past few days...LETS SEE THOSE CAKES! What flavored were they? (If you aren't married, what's your dream cake or what flavor a is your favorite?)
We did cupcakes because I didn't really want a big fancy cake that would likely mostly go to waste. Favors were vanilla/vanilla, blueberry pancake with maple buttercream (and candied bacon...I was obsessed with these) & I think the third was banana pecan.
R/R/CS: So basically, yeah. With all you ladies on the BSC SS train. Woohoo! This afternoon I experienced some pretty weird cramps, and so obviously THAT was implantation. *eyeroll* I didn't think this level of crazy would happen to me, but then again, I've never paid this close of attention to my body's small aches and pains before. Anyway, I was whining to DH about whether or not to buy Wondfos, because we use our B/SIL's Amazon Prime and I don't want them to get any ideas, but I don't want to wait for slow shipping, and he was like, "stop. We're going to Walgreens right now and you're picking up some pregnancy tests." So...now I have two FRERS and I'm still freaking out because according to Amazon reviews they're not all that accurate. Sigh. So we'll see re: testing.
GTKY: My cake! It was pretty, but I seriously have no recollection of the flavors! The place that did it included a one-year anniversary topper, so we didn't have to eat frozen year-old cake.
@babymishand @JamieMichelle12- Thanks so much! I have been trying to hold it together! I have been doing good not SS and I'm not jumping to POAS, but interpreting my temps.... Oh, that has me google crazy!!!!
I feel your pain. I may have Google several bsc things today, but checking in with you all brings me back down to earth ☺
Hi there ladies! I have been m.i.a for over a week now because I got absolutely slammed with work and, well, life haha glad to be back for the support though!
Month/Cycle:7/7
CD/DPO: 15/2 plying around with FF it looks like I will get my crosshairs tomorrow, O on cd13
Timing: -4, -2, +1
Testing: Since my timing was so bad I'm not too excited to start testing, so if no AF by the 6th then I will try
R/R/CS: Just disappointed, we were doing great with the EOD and were planning to start ED, then DH ended up hurting his neck and back pretty badly and it just so happened to be on what turned out to be -1 and O. So it just upsets me, another month down the tubes.
GTKY: Based on the past few days...LETS SEE THOSE CAKES! What flavored were they? (If you aren't married, what's your dream cake or what flavor a is your favorite?)
We started planning about 3 different types of weddings and just kept getting frustrated because no matter what, our families were going to be upset, or left out in some way etc. One morning I mentioned to DH that I wasn't even really excited for a wedding because it wasn't really going to end up being for either of us since all of our choices were revolving around making others happy. He said, ok, lets get married now so that its on our terms. So, we eloped! No wedding dress, cake, colors, photographer or big to do and I couldn't be happier!
R/R/CS: I was up all night finishing a cake for an order. It turned out soooo cute but now I'm exhausted!!
GTKY: Based on the past few days...LETS SEE THOSE CAKES! What flavored were they? (If you aren't married, what's your dream cake or what flavor a is your favorite?) I did a big dessert bar and cake. I made everything myself (which I totally regret because I was so busy I didn't get to enjoy myself leading up to the wedding). But we were on a tight budget so I saved a ton of money and got exactly what I wanted. I had a variety of flavors:vanilla, strawberry, lemon with raspberry, chocolate with caramel and toffee....
@joyful08 that guitar cake is amazing! My DH would *love* it, he's a big guitar guy (there may be a guitar room in our house...with five guitars, a keyboard and a ukulele).

@comealongponds I know exactly what you mean! We also have a guitar room. DH has three guitars, 2 amps, a keyboard, and this big pedal thingy and is trying to convince me he now needs a drum set. (He's a band director but plays guitar on the side)
R/R/CS: I will not be surprised if FF changes my CH. I've been sick the past 2 days, so that may have elevated my temperature. I haven't had a fever though. I've never ovulated before CD15 in the past, but who knows. I'll just wait and see what happens with more temps.
GTKY: Our cake was chocolate and made by a family friend as a wedding present. It was the best cake I have ever tasted.
Testing: I tested this morning, bfn. I'll probably test every day until a bfp or AF.
R/R/CS: I've felt lousy all day
GTKY: Based on the past few days...LETS SEE THOSE CAKES! What flavored were they? (If you aren't married, what's your dream cake or what flavor a is your favorite?) We had the classic white wedding cake with a mint green topper that I made. Each tier was a different flavor. We had French vanilla, marble, and spice cake. It was delicious.

@joyful08 I LOVE the guitar cake. I might have to consider something like that for my husband's birthday this year. He is also a musician and has at least 5 guitars, a keyboard, recording software, and who knows what else in his "man cave." We also bought a gorgeous upright piano last year, it just needs to be tuned.

GTKY: Based on the past few days...LETS SEE THOSE CAKES! What flavored were they?
My wedding cake was my absolute favorite thing about my wedding (obviousky besides marrying my husband). I am still obsessed with it 2.5 years later! We had 4 diff flavors total, the only one I remember was lemon. Funny story, my wedding coordinator came up to me right after we cut the cake and told me that one of my crazy (drunk) bridesmaids was insisting that she not cut the bottom layer as we had to take it home and save it. I told her that was ridiculous and I didn't want to save any of the cake..... I sure did go home with the entire bottom layer of my cake!
