    Month/Cycle: 14/5

    Cycle Day/DPO: 35/5

    Timing: Great! -5,-4,-2,-1,+1

    Typical LP length: 14-15

    Testing: Tuesday

    R/R: My cramping has slowed. Now my pelvis just feels heavy. My boobs are hurting as well. I know it's just the progesterone from ovulating doing this. Blah! Good thing we gave a four day weekend. It'll keep me busy and my mind busy!

    CS/Q: 

    GTKY: The earliest crush I had was in kindergarten. His name was Eric, and he was adorable, and the fastest runner...lol. We started our romance in the swings and it ended a few weeks later on the merry go round.

    @josie12367 Yay for long weekends! I have one too, but MH doesn't so I can't wait for all the me time on Monday!
    @offtoneverland That's cool that you are in a book club! My aunt hosts one but I've never read enough to join one. Maybe someday!

    Month/Cycle: 1/1

    Cycle Day/DPO: 21/9

    Timing: -5, -3, -2, O

    Typical LP length: 15/16

    Testing: Hoping to hold out until Monday, but might cave Saturday.

    R/R: All raves for me today! MH made me bacon mac and cheese for dinner last night and then we had the best non-TTC sex. All around solid night! Tonight I am going to a show with some cousins called "Masters of Illusion" and I am really looking forward to it!

    CS/Q: Chart in Spoiler


    GTKY: Who was your first crush? My first crush was this kid named Kevin. I remember we did a school play and he dressed up like a lion and sang a song. Fast forward to high school and he because friends with MH and low and behold they because such good friends that he was the Best Man in our wedding last year!

    @offtoneverland Aww shucks! Coming from you (an editor right?) that's an amazing compliment! Maybe I should...lol. No plans really for the weekend at this point other than the market on Saturday, and possibly a day trip on Monday. Your chart sure is pretty! What are you doing this weekend to distract yourself?

    @tessiesmom26 Yes! What in the world are you going to do with your free day! I vote naps...lots of naps!

    I agree @josie12367. You are a great story teller. Makes me feel like I'm there. Do you blog anywhere? Also, I'm glad the cramping has subsided. I know it was pretty bad yesterday. How's your back?

    @offtoneverland "Going to try my hardest not to test this weekend..." Translation: I'm gonna po all s and there aint nothing anyone can do to stop me. :#

    @tessiesmom26 I've never seen a chart like that before. It just looks so stable and pretty.


    Month/Cycle: 3rd IUI

    Cycle Day/DPO: 19/3

    Timing: Good

    Typical LP length: varies on treatment 14-16

    Testing: WFAF

    R/R: I didn't realize it was Thursday until ten minutes ago. Nice surprise.

    CS/Q: No

    GTKY: Who was your first crush?  Leonardo DiCaprio in the 6th grade. Other than that, I really wasn't interested in boys until I was 16.

    GTKY: Who was your first crush? The neighbour Fraser, he was my age, popular, quite pretty and I imagined all kinds of scenarios that he would fall madly in love with me when I was 11.

    @lokibear89 Hugs. I hope the spotting goes away and doesn't turn into af. Do you typically spot five days before?

    @suzycupcake Thank you! I was trying to think of a celebrity crush but there were so many that I went to RL LOL.

    @suzycupcake @tessiesmom26 Thanks I really hope it isn't AF either. I have spotted before but its not a regular thing. Temps are still up so I still have a little hope that it won't turn into AF but....
  • Options
    @suzycupcake I don't blog :/ I kind of wish I did though. It's therapeutic to tell some of my stories. I'll have to think about it. My back is okay. It's so weird. It's been killing me this cycle. Hopefully that means I ovulated out a nice, big, fat, mature egg! Hah! Here's to hoping! Leo is a good choice...I mean, Titanic, am I right?

    @josie12367 To this day, when I see Kate Winslet in any movie, I'm so mad with her for not sharing the door! And weren't there so many other pieces of furniture around to be used as flotation devices???

    Backs are strange around the monthly. Sometimes, mine hurts a lot. Other times, I don't feel a thing there. In your case though, I hope it means you Od a super egg. All of that HIO has to be doing something in there. Damn bodies!

    Well, if you ever blog, loop me in :)

    @josie12367 Yes, I'm an editor. But I edit boring business-related products not exciting works of fiction! MH wants to go ice skating this weekend. That means he'll be skating beautifully (he grew up playing ice hockey) and I'll be falling on my butt.  :# Maybe I can convince him to let me sit on the sidelines with hot cocoa.
    @suzycupcake lol! Surprisingly, I'm not feeling the urge to POAS yet! Hope I can hold out to 12dpo. I'm obsessed with Leo. He's so handsome!  <3
    @tessiesmom26 Your Valentine's night sounds fantastic. Bacon mac and cheese...mmm! That's too funny that your first crush ended up as your best man.
    @lokibear89 Sorry about the spotting. Are you feeling better?

    @offtoneverland have turned into a moody horrible monster, so my guess is AF on the way. On a positive note I go on holiday on the 26th and I will be able to enjoy wineries and the bath at our air bnb. Still crossing fingers I'm wrong though. It does seem quite light in the TWW though.

    @offtoneverland my book club is doing Lilac Girls too! I chose it, so I feel a little bad since it IS so heavy, but I really like it

    Month/Cycle: 8/7

    Cycle Day/DPO: 28/8

    Timing: -1

    Typical LP length: 13

    Testing: Waiting

    R/R: Rant: For some reason my persuasive communications teacher is making all of us read 10 articles about IVF, and then we all have to write a post about our opinions, and then we all have to respond to each other's posts. The purpose is for the class to work on seeing things from other perspectives, but does it have to be a topic that is so possible, and not about something like term limits? Rave: My husband and I went out to a fancy dinner tonight, and it was suuuuuper yummy and awesome. 

    CS/Q: 

    GTKY: Who was your first crush? A boy from down the street. Extra weird now that we're all growed up, and he got a little skeevy. Thanks Facebook.
