prpl11butterfly · October 2018

Month/Cycle: 14/11

CD/DPO: 28/12

Timing: -4, -2, -1

Typical LP length: 13

Testing: tomorrow and super nervous

R/R: Omg, my wart looks aweful today. Huge white blister forming on my friggin index finger with a large crater in the center. Looks super professional.... I really want to cover it with a bandaid but don't know if that's okay or not 😖🤢

CS/Q: temps are not where I would expect/hope for potential BFP but I need to test either way due to the testing I'm scheduled to have. But aside from temps, things are lining up to look ALOT like last cycle.....

chichiphin · October 2018

Month/Cycle: 5

CD/DPO: 27/10 (going with FF advanced)

Timing: good

Typical LP length: 9

Testing: BFN this AM. WFAF, but testing on Sat morning if I make it

R/R: Got up and made it to the gym before WFH today. However I have some awful groin ligament tenderness. Must be from walking all over campus the past two days for meetings. I think I logged 6.5 miles on Monday.

CS/Q: So. temped an hour early (by mistake) but even if I were to adjust the temp by what I see on google, it would still be a big drop. Temp was discarded. I'm trying to convince myself that FF was right, this is 10DPO and either AF is coming today OR I had a 9/10 DPO implantation dip. HI I AM CRAZY TODAY.

b_1029 · October 2018

@chichiphin FX it’s an implantation dip!!
@prpl11butterfly good luck testing tomorrow! 🤞🏼

chichiphin · October 2018

@prpl11butterfly fx for testing tomorrow. temps still look good. ugh sorry about that finger! I'd prob bandaid it for any meetings, etc. then take it off to breathe hah

elle-0409 · October 2018

@prpl11butterfly I'm sorry about your wart. Those things are a nightmare to get rid of. Did you find out if you could cover it?

@chichiphin 6.5 miles? Get it, girl! Also, FX for you.

@ everyone at the SS table (from yesterday), I am sending you lots of positive thoughts!

Month/Cycle: 3/3

CD/DPO: 28/8

Timing: -3, -2, 0

Typical LP length: 7

Testing: WFAF

R/R: I can't believe I've made it to 8 dpo. It's a Halloween miracle! I'm going to credit the B12 shot and B6 vitamins. Thanks, everyone for all of the advice. I never would have researched what a short LP was without you.

CS/Q: Nothing.

marebear15 · October 2018

@prpl11butterfly - That wart sounds awful. I'd think a bandaid would be more professional than having people potentially be grossed out. I'm going to be waiting tomorrow with baited breath for you.

@chichiphin - I'm sorry about the BFN and the temp drop

Hey, a least it's a little bit longer LP.

@elle-0409 - Yay for a longer LP!!! And maybe a positive in your near future?? So if you're WFAF and it's 1 day past due, when do you think you'll test?

Month/Cycle: 5/5

CD/DPO: 25/7

Timing: -5, -3, -1, +1

Typical LP length: 8-11

Testing: Trying to hold off til Monday. But my weekdays are busy, so I may do it Sunday...or Saturday, I'll be 10dpo! Guys, talk me down.

R/R: I put on a few pounds in the last month since I weighed myself. There's just been too many fall goodies, and then we have Halloween candy, Thanksgiving, and Christmas cookies. HELP! Lol. I just need to say no.

CS/Q: Temp keeps rising! I'm way too hopeful about this cycle, it's scaring me.

cpiper39 · October 2018

@prpl11butterfly Fx this isn’t like last cycle
@chichiphin So sorry for the BFN. Hoping AF stays away
@elle-0409 Yay for longer LPs!
@marebear15 I think we’re in the same boat with the temps! Try to hold out until Monday if you can 😊

Month/Cycle: 3/3

CD/DPO: 25/9

Timing: High

Typical LP length: 12-14

Testing: Sunday

R/R: After a crazy last couple days for work, I fly home today, which I’m happy about. Also, I kept tossing last night and slept horrible! One of those... if I fall asleep now, I’ll get x hours of sleep.

CS/Q: That said, I think my temp is slightly high because of that. I’m excited that they keep going up, but I’m nervous that the other shoe will drop...

chart in spoiler

elle-0409 · October 2018

@marebear15 If AF still hasn't shown up, I'll test on Friday because my sister is coming to visit and we are supposed to ride roller coasters all day. Otherwise, I'd probably wait a bit longer.

I'm so happy that your temp keeps rising! FX for you! And yay for eating all of the things!

@cpiper39 I'm happy that your temps are going up! Have a safe flight home.

rikiteacup · October 2018

Month/Cycle: 6/6

CD/DPO: 21/6

Timing: -3, -2, -1, 0, +1

Typical LP length: 13-15 days

Testing: H did his SA today. Results at the end of the week.

R/R: I am so mad at myself. I changed jobs 2.5 years ago and with my new insurance, I can only go to a certain health system. The PCP I've been using for the last 4 years isn't part of this system (of course) and I just realized it yesterday after I did my physical. I was wondering why I had to pay so much out of pocket. I just assumed it was my insurance. The OB/GYN office I have been seeing for the last 4 years is part of this health system. Guess what? I never saw a bill from them in the last 2.5 years. Good thing I rarely go to the doctor but now I know and I need to find a new PCP

CS/Q chart in spoiler. Nothing major happening right now.

rikiteacup · October 2018

@prpl11butterfly today's temp look good! Still way above the cover line and in the same range with the few you already have after ovulation. Good luck tomorrow!
@chichiphin Sorry for the BFN. I wouldn't discard the temp. 1 hour early might be fine for FF. I know I've done it 45 mins early and still got a blue dot.
@elle-0409 yay for a longer LP!
@marebear15 temps looking good!
@cpiper39 looking good too!

chichiphin · October 2018

@rikiteacup I'm sorry about your health insurance coverage. that sucks that you are stuck within your health care system. I hope you find someone you like. as for the temp, when I uncheck discard, there is a solid blue line to the temp, but an open circle now. So I can leave it like that I suppose!

asupernovablizzardstorm · October 2018

@prpl11butterfly sorry about the wart. Why didn't they just cut it off since you have had frozen before?

@chichiphin sorry about bfn. Still crossing my fingers!
@elle-0409 Yay for longer LP. Have fun on the coasters. I'm terrified of them.
@cpiper39 hope you get some rest today.
@marebear15 Temps looking good!

Month/Cycle: 10/10

CD/DPO: 27/13

Timing: good

Typical LP length: 12-13

Testing: nope

R/R: just wishing AF would start to get to the next cycle and I can start back drinking the fertility tea.
Edited for missing words.

CS/Q:

prpl11butterfly · October 2018

@chichiphin sorry about the bfn. I was super hopeful for you. Fx that maybe just maybe your not that cray.

@elle-0409 that's great that your LP seems to be responding well! FX that even if this isn't THE cycle that you LP continues for a few more days.

@marebear15 fx that those temps are a good sign!!

@cpiper39 I hope that other shoe stays put. And, I actually want this cycle to look like last ....just needs to end better then that one....

@rikiteacup I hope the SA results are good. Sorry about the insurance issues. Such a frustrating thing to deal with even not TTC.

@asupernovablizzardstorm sorry AF is dragging her feet. It's only even been frozen by a PCP and DIY kits. The stuff the Derm used was much stronger. Then the salicylic acid she has me using is something new. I'll try it. After a few months ill probably just ask her to amputate 😂

jessg2223 · October 2018

Month/Cycle: 5/5

CD/DPO: 23/5

Timing: Good

Typical LP length: 13-14

Testing: Next Friday if I can hold out.

R/R: I picked up some extra hours at work yesterday and tomorrow and my workout plan is suffering. I haven't run in a few days and need to figure out when I can over the next few days.

CS/Q: Temperature dropped a bit today, still above the coverline, no questions or SS yet!

@chichiphin Sorry about the BFN
@elle-0409 I'm glad your LP is lengthening!
@marebear15 FX!

cpiper39 · October 2018

@prpl11butterfly Oh! Well FX for similar cycles, just with a better end result 😊

marebear15 · October 2018

Wow, I just counted June, and we have 8 of us TTGP over there (less, depending on how you count). Hoping for a few more from this group!

Wow, that's a LOT. Not a bad thing though. Hopefully we get a few more.

chichiphin · October 2018

ugh I just need AF to get here. Realistically, I am out, but I am SS like crazy and my google searches are SOO embarrassing, to the point where I am exclusively googling on my phone rather than my work-issued laptop

mamanbebe · October 2018

@prpl11butterfly What did they use to remove the wart? When I've had them removed I think I was able to keep them covered up so that they did not get infected.
@chichiphin Good for you on making it to the gym! My goal is to start going back next week when my rec center reopens, after conveniently closing when I finally built up the motivation again

@elle-0409 Congrats on the longer LH! FX that this cycle works out for you!
@marebear15 Your chart looks so good!
@cpiper39 Yay on the temp rising! I hope you get some good rest tonight.
@rikiteacup That is so infuriating. I wish that Dr offices were more forthcoming about whether or not they are providers for your insurance, not just whether or not they will bill to them. I had this happen with a dentist recently where they acted like they were providers but then I got a $250 bill for a cleaning.
@asupernovablizzardstorm I'm sorry about the temp drop

@jessg2223 I've read that a temp drop around 4-5dpo is totally normal. FX for your temp to keep rising!

Month/Cycle: 3/2

CD/DPO: 32/1

Timing: Great

Typical LP length: 12

Testing: Mid to late next week

R/R: Rave/ having real O cramps today and that makes me feel super excited that despite starting out an-O, things are looking up! Rant/ I've got nothing today, just feeling good and trying to stay positive.

CS/Q: Giving my old BBT thermometer a try this week. My super long cycle is bizarre to say the least but I am feeling good about O this time!

prpl11butterfly · October 2018

@mamanbebe they used liquid nitrogen to freeze it and every night I have to put RX strength salicylic acid and cover it with duct tape. She said to uncover it in the morning and wash it good.

harrierwife · October 2018

Month/Cycle: 6/5

CD/DPO: 22/10

Timing: -3, -2, -1

Typical LP length: 11-12

Testing: WFAF (Friday) but my willpower is crumbling fast. I went to two grocery stores this AM to look for a FRER, but both were sold out. Perhaps its a sign to wait.

R/R: The wait is killing me. I just want to know. I'm extra anxious because I'm going home in exactly two weeks to see my best friends for a long girls weekend and for a family wedding. I'm so excited to see everyone I could scream. This would be icing on the cake, but I'm getting ahead of myself.

My head is so unsettled right now that I'm having a hard time focusing on anything other than my uterus. I know that this is all self-induced and that I have the ability to calm myself (thank you, years of therapy) but I think there's a part of me that doesn't want to calm down.

Anyway, I've been bloated as hell the last two days. I'm only able to wear leggings right now. My hands and feet are swollen and I have no appetite. My boobs hurt and my nipples could cut glass. I fell asleep with a hot water bottle last night. AF needs to just show herself or not already. Or maybe its still this Mississippi heat. Who knows.

CS/Q: If you're interested, my chart is in the spoiler.

harrierwife · October 2018

Sheesh - SO many of us at the ends of our LPs...... I CAN'T HANDLE THE ANTICIPATION

elle-0409 · October 2018

@chichiphin I literally thought today just how random and weird my Google searches have been.

@harrierwife Hopefully we will get some answers soon! Are you going to test tomorrow?

harrierwife · October 2018

@elle-0409 - I want to, I do. I might. I dunno. AHHHHH.

kiki047 · October 2018

*lurking* I have some FRERs at home, who can I courier them to because someone needs to POAS. I'm dying on anticipation over here

@elle-0409 yay for longer LP! That's great news. FX for you!!

OOoh yes, that makes sense. I recall something about depriving of oxigen (duct tape) but also drying it out (hence washing and leaving uncovered) are really helpful. I hope it works! If it doesn't go away this time, I've had luck with Cantharidin, which they put on the wart, then you cover it and let it blister deep, keeping it covered until it all peels away after a week or so.

b_1029 · October 2018

*lurk*
@harrierwife I would be SS too if I were you, FX for you!! And for everyone else testing in the next few days!

grangerhp37 · October 2018

Month/Cycle: 6/4

CD/DPO: 29/11 (or 29/9?)

Timing: -5,-4,-3,-1,+1 (or -5,-3,-1,O if I’m 9DPO)

Typical LP length: 12 days

Testing: BFN on a cheapie today, saving FRER for tomorrow and Friday. Was hoping I’d have a definitive result before this weekend - we’re going out of town with family for a wedding and I could really use a drink if I’m able to! But if I did actually O later I might not even get AF in time to have that confirmation 🙄

R/R: Rave: Finally getting into a groove at work (at a new school this year). Rant: I just keep grabbing my boobs like a crazy person. My right boob is definitely sore, like the upper inside part towards my chest. No idea if it’s from all the grabbing or when I Googled, it could just be from TWW hormones. I need to stop grabbing and see if it goes away when/if AF shows.

CS/Q: Temp is still rising... but no spotting yet. I think I usually get a day of spotting before AF so that should be a warning, hopefully before this wedding if that’s the case... My high hopes are slowly being knocked down to normal levels.

chichiphin · October 2018

so many charts look soo good! fx fx fx

grangerhp37 · October 2018

Sorry to P&G earlier... was dealing with benefits issues at work.

@prpl11butterfly I'll be thinking about you tomorrow

@chichiphin Hi crazy! I'm also crazy. FX for you that AF stays away. A longer LP is always a good thing!! I hope you get a definitive answer soon.
@elle-0409 Yay for a longer LP!!!
@marebear15 I always prefer testing on the weekends (if you work regular M-F hours). I hate having to go to work after testing. FX for you!!! All the TTGP'ers in June is going to make me WAY MORE BUMMED if I end up out this cycle.
@cpiper39 I hope your temp is high tomorrow too!
@rikiteacup Chart looks great!! Ugh dealing with insurance is the worst.
@asupernovablizzardstorm Sorry about the low temps

I hope you have something fun/relaxing to do this weekend!
@jessg2223 FX for a rise tomorrow!
@mamanbebe FX that you are right about O and your cycle is finally getting its act together!
@harrierwife I'm right there with you!! All the feels at the end of this TWW, especially with so many of us left hanging!

elle-0409 · October 2018

So AF decided to show up, even though I told her to lose my number. I made it to 8 dpo, but I'm going to give my doctor a call in the morning and try to find some answers. Fingers crossed for you beautiful women!! I will definitely be lurking.

grangerhp37 · October 2018

@elle-0409 Damn

Hugs to you lady. Treat yo self!

chichiphin · October 2018

I’m sorry @elle-0409 I’m glad you got one more day out of your LP. I hope your doc is helpful!

cpiper39 · October 2018

@elle-0409 So sorry... good luck with next steps with your doctor.

@marebear15 I saw those posts too! Hopefully, that sends good vibes our way 😊

lillywonderland · October 2018

*lurking from WTO*

Sweet baby Jesus there are a ton of you so close!!! I am keeping everything crossed for good news from all of you!!! Well...TBH everything except my legs because FW is around the corner for me. 😉

suzycupcake · October 2018

@dogmomma271 Are your temps Fahrenheit? That is a serious rising up. It's like the stairway to fucking heaven. Do your temps normally do that?

Sweet baby Jesus is right @lillywonderland Y'all need to poas already! This is like the turtle race on Hart of Dixie for those of you who might be loyal fans.

Regardless of what happens ladies, all the hugs to all of you!

Remember to be kind to yourselves

grangerhp37 · October 2018

@suzycupcake Yes they’re Fahrenheit. I have no idea what’s normal, I switched to using Ava last cycle. With BBT my temps usually rose but then stayed somewhat consistent. Last cycle I had a temp rise with Ava, then 3 low temps below cover 6-8DPO, but after that my temps shot back up and kept rising. Starting 9 DPO I spotted until AF came. So not sure if I had a progesterone crash or something and then it started to rise again or what the deal was.

suzycupcake · October 2018

@dogmomma271 Oh Ava! That measures on your skin right? Phew! I was about to tell you to get your thyroid checked

kiki047 · October 2018

@suzycupcake you always have the best comments

stairway to heaven, LMAO.
