Month/Cycle: 17/14
CD/DPO: 24/10
Timing: -3, O, +1
R/R: I am eternally grateful to whomever that this Monday is pretty slow (*knocking on wood*). I did not want to come to work today. I just wanted to stay home and get the house prepped for the guests coming in 2 weeks. We got bookshelves from Ikea on Saturday and put them up on Sunday. It looks so much better in the spare bedroom despite the crappy floor. It is the room that hopefully one day will house a tiny human so it felt good to clean all the crap out of it. I just wanted to stay home and make it look pretty. My parents brought me the pine toy chest that we had as kids so I dumped all of MF's toys into it. He doesn't play with them (a lot), but his little cousins love them. Hoping the day goes quickly and I can back at it!Typical LP length: 14-15 days
Testing: AF is due on Saturday. I am summoning as much will power as I can not to test before then.
CS/Q: -
Month/Cycle: 7/7
CD/DPO: 32/5 or 6
Timing: -5, -3, -2
R/R: We are watching Romeo and Juliet today, so I get to watch peak hottenss DiCaprio prance around all day.Typical LP length: totally unknown. FF made one up for me. But I think it's around 7ish days.
Testing: Like the utter fool I am, I peed on a stick this am. BFN, duh.
CS/Q: In case you care, here it is.
Month/Cycle: 3/3
CD/DPO: 25/10
Timing: -4, -1, +1
R/R: I wish my temp would just go up or down. I'm kind of in limbo between it being lower than I'd like, but still high enough to keep me in the game. I just want to know one way or another. I'm trying to mentally prepare myself for AF.Typical LP length: Average 10-11
Testing: Tested this morning (and yesterday, and the day before) all BFN.
CS/Q:
@ladylinsey Romeo and Juliet Leo is peak hottness. He was so cute and baby faced then.
Month/Cycle: 13/13
CD/DPO: 27/9
Timing: -4, -1, +1
R/R: I just cannot seem to wake up this morning. I'm super groggy and I have no idea why. I didn't stay up late and I didn't have any alcohol. Today may have to be my 1 cup of coffee for the week.Typical LP length: 11-13ish
Testing: AF is due Wed or Thurs. Trying to hold off. I'd been so good last week I wasn't tempted and i hadn't even considered testing early. This morning I really wanted to.
CS/Q:nope.
@meri-mac I know how you feel about cleaning out that room. We have so much crap in our back bedroom and the only thing tiny human related is the changing table my dad made when my brother was born. I did get DH to put a bunch of stuff up in the attic, but there is still more!
@meggyme sorry for the BFN, FX you are still in the game and AF doesn't come.
Month/Cycle: 6/6
CD/DPO: 30/11
Timing: -3, -1, 0
R/R: Monday. Need to finish something today, and I'm sooo behind. I should have done much more this weekend, but I find it so so hard to get anything done on the weekends, especially in summer. At least once I get this on paper I can relax a bit.Typical LP length: 13?
Testing: BFN this morning. Think it's time to accept defeat for this cycle. Onto the next.
CS/Q: Nope.
@hoodevil0611 Sorry about the BFN. I'm right there with you. Good luck with your thing. Hopefully it's something you can complete while enjoying the sunshine. Or at least a frosty beverage.
@meri-mac Glad that you got the book shelves that you wanted and that the spare room is starting to take shape for you now. It is such a good feeling when you can purge stuff like that and start seeing your vision come together! Wait for until AF is late. You can do it!
@ladylinsey For some reason your chart is not attached. Just an FYI. Sorry for the BFN.
@meggyme Sorry that you are frustrated with your body right now. Hopefully get you get a clear answer soon. FX
@thrgirlwhowaited One cup a week?! Do you at least drink tea in between?
@hoodevil0611 I hear you on not achieving much in the summer. I just want to be outside all the time if the sun is out.
Month/Cycle: 13/14 (4 benched)
CD/DPO: 24/11
Timing: -3, -1
Typical LP length: 13 days
Testing: Nope. I am the odd woman out and can't handle the BFN's so refuse to test until AF is late. Denial is great!
R/R: Spontaneous day off tomorrow and Wednesday as my niece and her bf are driving down. So excited to see them both and hang out with them. Bummed that DH wont be able to get off of work too, but we will make the most of it.CS/Q: Nope
@meggyme It is coming along. I wish we had gotten the floor done before, but it just wasn't in the cards. It will nag at me forever until it is done.
@thrgirlwhowaited It is amazing how much stuff accrues over time. I really wanted to test this morning too. I walked down the family planning aisle at lunch and I had to pull myself away. I am waiting for AF. I am waiting for AF. I am waiting for AF...
@nitnat007 Thank you for the cheerleading. It is so hard this month. Yay for spontaneity! What are you doing with you niece and her BF?
*Edit to add tag*
I applaud all of you who can wait it out to test. @thegirlwhowaited11, @meri-mac and @nitnat007. You guys are amazing. I mean, I've been down this road a few times now and I still pee on expensive sticks way before I should. I have zero self control. It's the same around cupcakes.
Also, @nitnat007 that's weird about my chart...I see it here on my comp. IDK why. I mean, it's nothing special.
@ladylinsey I think I'd have less control around a cupcake right now, so I have that going for me.
@nitnat007 I used to be a coffee addict so I try to stick to once a week and occasionally I'll have iced tea. Since I've stopped I do pretty well without it, but when I do have it I get super jittery.
Month/Cycle: 7/8
CD/DPO: 19/7
Timing: -2,-1,O,+1
R/R: Rave: RE appointment tomorrow! I am so, so nervous but also happy to be able to get a plan for next cycle.Typical LP length: 13-14
Testing: Gah. Probably 11 dpo-ish unless tomorrow changes anything.
CS/Q: I have a nasty cold so my chart is all kinds of messed up from having a slight fever. I will be discarding the last few temps, but here it is as it stands lol.
@ladylinsey & @nitnat007 All I can think about now is cupcakes.
@sparty18 sending good vibes for your RE appointment tomorrow!
@meggyme I super hate limbo, but I'm glad that I've been put out of my misery now. Sorry about the BFN!
@ladylinsey I have way less self control around cupcakes than pee sticks. Don't even get me started on donuts!
Me: 31 Him: 32

@meggyme i understand the feeling of just needing to know. FX for you this week.
@nitnat007 you have quite the resolve! So impressed by your self control.
Month/Cycle: 1/1
CD/DPO: 27/14? Not temping
Timing: 3,1, 0
R/R: I'm more okay this week than I was last week with the idea of being benched next month if AF comes. I've made my peace. But similarly, I just want to know either way.Typical LP length: As previously mentioned, we'll see this month. BC for 12 years, so not positive.
Testing: Last Wed (way early) & Saturday (BFN) and tomorrow.
Happy to busy with work travel. Too busy to go down the internet rabit hole.
