    @Sparty18 ugh, stinkbugs! I've never lived somewhere with them, but I've visited...how long does the "season" last? I hope for your sake it is a short one!

    Month/Cycle: 5/5

    CD/DPO: 22/8 (going with Clue's guess on this one)

    Timing: -4, -2, +1 (if Clue is right)

    Typical LP length: idk

    Testing: probably not necessary this cycle

    R/R: Rave: Friday! And we are headed to the Lake for one last weekend before it gets too cold. Rant: PMS is striking hard and striking early this month. Hellacious cramps and mood swings all day yesterday and the insomnia (anyone else get PMS-induced insomnia?) FX that the PMS hormones ease up today and this weekend. 

    Edited to add: I am a huge baby about cramps because I usually only get a zit and the insomnia, so it's nothing like many ladies have to deal with...I am just a weakling who isn't used to it.

    Don't crush them! It attracts more! Pick them up with a tissue gently and then flush them.....its made a HUGE difference in our house.

    @harrierwife Oh yeah, we definitely flush them all.  I still hate them.

    @spacepiraterunner It lasts until it gets really cold, so we will see them for a couple of months now.   :/

    Month/Cycle:  3/3

    CD/DPO: 28/ 14-ish or 7-ish

    Timing:  not great

    Typical LP length:  11-12 days

    Testing:  Well BFN'ed last night, so I think Ovia was wrong on moving my O date up (usually O around day 20 or so).  I'm guessing I'm closer to the 7 dpo, following along with previous cycles (and FF prediction, although I bombed out of temping this month).  Which means timing was terrible.  So I'm waiting for AF to show up (and wish she would just hurry on up so we can move on to the next go-round!)

    R/R:  It's Friday and there's a good chance the weekend will be a little rainy here, so I'm looking forward to RELAXING a bit!  (And not feeling like I need to be productive!)

    CS/Q:  Nope.

    @sparty18 Keeping my FX for your IUI! I just googled what a stink bug was and totally had no idea those are what I've been stepping on in the office lately. Thank you @harrierwife for the tip, I will be sure to run screaming for someone else to flush it next time!

    @Sparty18 I see those sporadically in my house and never knew that's what they were...I typically just leave them alone unless they come close to me haha. Good to know!
    @lcking82 same for our weather, I'm excited to be forced to be stuck inside and get some things done around the house (aka the laundry I've been putting off for a while). I'm sorry to hear about the O date confusion...hopefully AF comes soon and you guys can start the next round!
    @nmbrcrnchr1 we're going to the movies too for the first time in forever! What are you seeing?
    @spacepiraterunner have fun at the lake! Sorry to hear about PMS...never fun.
    @ThompsonHM2 hope you feel better and get lots of rest this weekend!

    Month/Cycle: 10/11
    CD/DPO: 20/ 9 or 10
    Timing: good
    Typical LP length: 14-16
    Testing: took one this morning because...I am who I am. Period is coming in the next 5-8 days so not sure what I was expecting here.... -_-
    R/R: Rave: it's Friday + payday aka pay all the bills day! And DH and I are going to see a movie tonight. We're doing a race together in the morning, then will have a date night tomorrow night. Very excited for all the chill quality time!
    Rant: I keep finding myself getting down about how long it's taking us to conceive (and I know it's nothing compared to how long other people try for, which also makes me mad at how sorry for myself I feel when others have it way worse). I guess if it doesn't happen this cycle, next will be #12 and after that we will probably get back in touch with the RE who did all our testing a few months ago. I was just hoping it wouldn't get to this point, but it is what it is. 
    CS/Q: none

    @Sparty18 stink bugs are the worst! One of my cats loves to eat them and then gets sick 

    @b_1029 it sounds like have a nice weekend planned, I hope you have fun! And hitting the 12 cycle mark is really really tough, and generally not something any of us ever expected.  I am sorry and hopefully it doesn’t get to that point!
    @nmbrcrnchr1 fx, that dip does look good!  Enjoy your movie!

    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.

    Month/Cycle: 2/2 with ov kits, 4/5 total
    CD/DPO: 30/11
    Timing: -2, 0
    Typical LP length: 13
    Testing: bfn today 
    R/R: ok, so I had sharp pains in my breast and I've been a bit nauseous the past 2 days. I have a strong stomach and rarely get a nauseous or sick so I remained calm but of course my mind was still thinking... So I took a test, bfn. Then I noticed when I wiped. The faintest dark red on the toilet paper. 0I truly thought this was the month but I guess af is flying in. :-( I don't want to accept no for an answer this month.
    CS/Q: none
