Re: TWW Wednesday 3/12
Month/Cycle: 10/7/2 AL
CD/DPO: 23/12
Timing: Almost missed the boat entirely
Typical LP length: 10-13 days
Testing: Like a maniac. Nothing but blazing white staring back blankly.
R/R: Rave: I’m up late/it’s early and I’m not behind on these posts!
CS/Q: The dreaded temp drop of doom, I believe.
CD/DPO: 30/8
Timing: best I’ve ever had
Typical LP length: 12-13
Testing: umm...ffwc? I took one last night (I know)...and this morning...*shakes head*
R/r: I felt really queasy yesterday, so getting annoyed at my high hopes, I took a test. But knowing that it wasn’t fmu and that’s it was 7po, it did very little to ground me. So then, after waking up super early and needing to use the bathroom, I figured I’d try again this morning. You know the result; I’m here. I don’t feel queasy anymore, so I’m taking that as a bad sign. Also rant—I keep waking up early and mh snores, so I keep failing at falling back asleep. Our policy is that I can wake him up whenever he snores. Now he’s just blowing bad breath into my face and it’s essentially wake up time. Ugh, I hope the day improves. Anyway, going back to the original plan, I will use my first response Friday morning. That will be definitive...maybe. 🙄
cs/q: here’s what I’ll be staring at and coloring with symptom all day
@begging4abump hahaha that’s MH and my policy as well. Morning breath makes me queasy. I just get out of bed. And brush my teeth. It makes me feel better. Lol
Month/Cycle: 2/2
CD/DPO: 27/6
Timing: -5, -4, -2, 0
Typical LP length: 12-14 days
Testing: when AF doesn’t come
R/R: Too much about work, not enough time to post. I love my job. I love my job.
CS/Q: temp went back up today. This is getting my hopes up. My chart looks pretty!
@begging4abump sorry for the BFN, even if it's too early, those sting. Hopefully NovTENber just needs a couple more days to work it's magic. Also, hubby snoring is the worst! My first year of marriage I swear I spent all night rolling my hubby over... Maybe I've gotten used to it now?
@ejoseph16 that is a pretty chart! I hope work is a "rave" rather than a "rant" soon!
Month/cycle: 9/10
CD/DPO: 19/6dpo
Timing: B+
Typical LP length: 11ish
Testing: heck nah
R/R: all the news yesterday was about the incoming "snow cyclone" or "bomb blizzard" and waking up to absolutely nothing this morning was totally anti-climactic. Now I have to decide if I should work from home, or go to work but risk lots of snow later...
CS/Q: nope!
CD/DPO: 25/8
Timing: Good
Typical LP length: 12/13
Testing: Tomorrow
R/R: I have officially started to point in my cycle overanalyzing every feeling I have, as if the same exact thing didnt happen last cycle. I am not falling for it this time!
CS/Q: nothing today
CD/DPO: 28/13
Timing: not enough
Typical LP length: 14
Testing: BFN this am (decided to test when my temp was still above coverline this am)
R/R: I had low expectations this cycle but was still sad to see BFN this morning. Now I am glad I didn’t wait for missed AF to test - work has been busy this week and maybe this will help me be less distracted.
CS/Q: nah.
@jennifer_louise: stay safe in the bad weather!
@begging4abump: my dH is a snorer too. Some nights I have to wake him up, with hopes that I can fall back asleep in the 10 min it will take for him to start snoring again.
@keikilove - Hugs
@ejoseph16 - Sorry about your work. Your chart does look good!
@jennifer_louise - The Weather channel is so dramatic about all these storms, naming them an everything. Hope everything stay clear for you. You've had enough snow for the year.
@kerco925 - All the "symptoms" that are just PMS drive me crazy.
@lcking82 - Sorry for the BFN. It's hard seeing it even if you expected it. I guess it's good that we still have that nugget of hope left in us, and that we aren't completely jaded.
Month/Cycle: 11/10
CD/DPO: 22/9
Timing: -5, -3, -2, -1, 0, +1
Typical LP length: 12
Testing: Tomorrow!!!
R/R: Finally got to watch The Crimes of Grindelwald, and it was fantastic! (hehe) Made for a late evening though and I didn't get my workout, but it was fun to be able to chill with DH.
This morning it was breezy with a little nip that reminded me of all. My basic self wanted a PSL of course.🍂
CS/Q: Going to temp tomorrow until the end of my cycle probably.
Btw- I've been wanting to see Crimes of Grindelwald forever! But I haven't seen Fantastic Beasts yet (Oooh just got your joke).
Good luck testing tomorrow @marebear15 @kerco925! Go glow up the grad thread.
@lcking82 sorry about the BFN, I hope work keeps you too busy to think about it. (I know that's basically impossible, but I still wish it)
CD/DPO: 24/6
Timing: nope
Typical LP length: 13
Testing: nope
R/R: had a great follow up with my re. I’m glad I was prepared with all my science and we have a clear direction on what’s next. She actually listened to me instead of brushing me off. I kind of got a little snippy with her and basically asked her why she doesn’t do anything I’ve seen other re’s do. Once we got past that she seemed to be more willing to try other avenues.
CS/Q: nope
@begging4abump snoring is the worst way to wake up. When dh does it to me I’m so cranky for the rest of the day. Still early for you so I’m keeping hope!
@ejoseph16 it’s wednesday! You’re on the downhill slide to the end of the week! I have faith you can make it lol.
@jennifer_louise here’s hoping the snow bomb stays away!
@lcking82 sorry for the bfn. Hugs ❤️
@marebear15 loved crimes of grindlewald too! 🤦🏻♀️ for your joke 😉
@jennifer_louise I also need to see CoG--but I *did* watch Fantastic Beasts when it came out on whatever streaming service it is/was on and enjoyed it WAY more than I thought I would.
@lcking82 Sorry for the BFN =(
@kerco925 Fight to BSC! (& I don't mean "The Babysitters Club"--)
@begging4abump What's FFWC? the internet has a LOT of different opinions on this, and I am fairly certain you don't mean "flood forecasting and warning center" but what do I know...
Month/Cycle: 6/4/1AL
CD/DPO: 34/13
Timing: n/a
Typical LP length: 14-15
Testing: n/a
R/R: DH overall seems in a slightly better place than he was when I last posted about his mood---thanks for all yr support---but he's still down and the situation that's causing it hasn't changed. In addition, I'm annoyed w/ him for a number of reasons and PMS is notttt helping. / I have finally learned how to cook for two ppl w/ little leftovers--H doesn't do leftovers for the most part, and too often in the past have I made meals that came w/ too many leftovers for me to finish before I would get bored of them/let them go back. The past 4 meals I've made have been perfectly proportioned with like 1 small portion left or less!
CS/Q: How reliable are +OPKs *not* in terms of WHEN you're gonna O but just... that you have in fact O'd? I def. got negatives and then a positive and then negatives, but my temps are kind of wonky, so I am worried/overanalyzing etc.--thinking that maybe I didn't O, but then like also like "calm down, your chart is fine, you're being paranoid, AF will be here soooon." ::upside down smiley face emoji::

1st month TTC and 7DPO.
I am thinking about testing on Saturday, using a First/Early Detection test. It is exciting to think about, but also trying to keep expectations in a reasonable place.

Month/Cycle: 8/7
CD/DPO: 24/5
Timing: not good, my partner got sick my last two fertile days and we didn't try enough earlier in my fertile period. Just -5 and -2.
Typical LP length: 13-14 days
Testing: not for a couple weeks.
R/R: I just turned 35 and definitely had some feelings about it! Just being several months into trying and hitting that age -- even though obviously, intellectually I know many many many women get pregnant after 35! And personally know several. On the other hand a few years ago I'm sure I pictured myself not even in a position to be TTGP when I turned 35 so there is that!
CS/Q: Is anyone else just doing OPK's and not BBT? I did BBT for a few months very diligently but just found that it made me overanalyze and wasn't helpful!
