    Month/Cycle: 1/1

    Cycle Day/DPO: 17/ maybe 2-3? Not 100% positive. 

    Timing:  3x in estimated window with CM

    Typical LP length:  Not sure.

    Testing: I plan to on the 24th. That would be 2 days before my expected period. My periods have been pretty regular due to metformin (that's what my Dr. says). 

    R/R:  Nausea. I am so nauseous today, I pray I am not getting sick. The flu is rampant in this school and I have been trying so hard to avoid it.

    CS/Q: Anybody else get watery/eggwhite cm for like a full week??? It seems much more pronounced than any other month I have ever had this month.

    GTKY:  Tell me about your worst Valentine's Day ever....   I cannot stand Valentine's Day. Nothing bad happened, I just don't like it. My husband and I don't really do it. It seems that eating out has lost its appeal because so many people eat out all the time these days. So, we just kind of hang out :)

    due to the passing of a grandmother and a grandfather within a few days of Valentine's Day
    We went skiing with friends for our first married valentine's day weekend. The high each day was -15 but we were still having a ton of fun with friends. However on our way home our alternator died with 5.5 hours to go until we got home. Thankfully our friends car was still running so the 5 of us piled in there to stay warm. It took 2 hours for AAA to come tow us because so many people were having issues. We were lucky to find a shop open on Presidents day that was right next to a hotel. We ended up spending the night in a crappy hotel room in  eating crappy Vermont pizza. We tried to get wine or been from the gas station across the street but by the time we go there it was closed and it was way too cold to walk anywhere in town. We still laugh about this every time we drive through the town we stayed or go to Okemo mountain where we skied that day. 


  • Month/Cycle: 2/2

    Cycle Day/DPO: 29/13

    Timing: -3, -2, +1

    Typical LP length: Don't know

    Testing: See rant below

    R/R: Rant: I'm having a really tough TTC week. *TW Loss in Spoiler*
    My doc thinks I'm probably having a CP. I had faint positives a few days ago (I wrote it off because they were so faint and not getting darker) and had a negative this morning. I had brown spotting Sunday night and Monday. She said it's either a CP or my dates are off. She wants me to wait a week to test again. After that she will bring me in for blood work. My temp is still up so I'm just feeling really confused. 
    Rave: I have zero plans this weekend. I'm going to do absolutely nothing and I can't wait.

    In college I flew home to visit my boyfriend. We had been together almost a year and he was my high school sweetheart. Then he proceeded to break up with me. Turns out he knew he was going to break up with me before I booked a $350 flight home to see him. He wanted to do it in person, but that was a very expensive break up and a really crappy Valentine's Day.

    R/R: I think MH procrastinated on V day again. Itsok really because he’s a great husband but sometimes I secretly wish some flowers would arrive at work. He’s a very private romantic though and I’ve come to respect him for it. 

    CS/Q: No

    GTKY:  Tell me about your worst Valentine's Day ever....

    Years ago, a guy I was dating went skiing with some friends that he went to HS with. He claimed he didn’t come home for V day or our 2 year anni (within a day of each other) because they were snowed in and couldn’t leave the mountain. I found out later it was because he was cheating on me. He came home and gave me a necklace which he later asked to give back when I broke up with him. 
    People think we become mothers when we give birth but the truth is we become mothers the moment we start calling our babies to us in our thoughts, dreams and prayers. Some paths are short and some are so long that you can easily forget where you were headed.

    How I feel all of the time.

  • @tessiesmom26 Its nice he wants to know but the pressure can be a little hard. FX when your test day comes.

    @brookepdavis I'm so sorry about your week, a nice relaxing weekend of nothing sounds just the ticket.

  • Month/Cycle: 8/7

    Cycle Day/DPO: 27/7

    Timing: -1

    Typical LP length: 13

    Testing: I was just looking up the earliest some people found out. I need to wait till next week I think. Except that the little stick ones are so cheap, it's no big deal.... right???

    R/R: No rant today. Rave: My boss's new kitten is the best little thing ever, and I loves it. And I take care of it for them, so it's almost mine!


    CS/Q: 

    GTKY:  Tell me about your worst Valentine's Day ever....
    Ummmm... I don't know that I've had a bad one. One year my husband got me a pillow as a gift, which was interesting...
  • Month/Cycle: 14/5

    Cycle Day/DPO: 34

    Timing: Great

    Typical LP length: 14-15

    Testing: Tuesday

    R/R: I went down a googling rabbit hole yesterday, and then was just so bummed out, I didn't post my own update. DH was also very frustrating yesterday, but now all is well again in that department. So here is yesterday's post (for me it's yesterday's update already). I'm having some pretty bad cramping, and back pains. I'm not sure if they're normal though because...I'm not used to ovulating. I'm sure they are. I'm just not used to it. One website said that cramping this early is statistically a sign of not being pregnant....Ugh. Must stay off Google!

    CS/Q: 

    GTKY:  I had the biggest crush on a drummer in marching band (total geek here), and decided to tell him on Valentines Day. Well I dressed up, did my hair and makeup. I looked great considering most days I didn't even try. Well, he dressed up nice that day too. He even complimented me on my appearance. We had flirted back and fourth so I took this as a promising sign, but right as I was about to talk to him after school, I saw him sitting with a cheerleader. Turns out he was asking her to prom, and telling her that he had the biggest crush on her. I was bummed out to say the least. Whomp Whomp! Oh the days of high school....
