Re: TWW Friday 5/3
CD/DPO: CD 32 / 10 DPO
Timing: great
Typical LP length: 12
Testing: trying to hold out until Monday
Β R/R: my running speed is already better than last year. Last year I was supposed to run the Hartford half marathon in October but I never signed up because I assumed I would get pregnant. This year Iβm not stopping living! I signed up for a 95 mile relay with my running squad in august! My legs are 6.5, 4 and 3 miles.Β
Β CS/Q: temp rise could have been because I had to swat cat off the bed so not reading too much into that.Β

CD/DPO: 17/ either 1 or 2
Timing: not what I wantedΒ
Typical LP length: 14
Testing: I should just wfaf but Iβll be crazy and test stupid earlyΒ
R/R: thankfully we finally made it to Friday even though the cat woke me up AGAIN. Β We have dinner tonight with our friends for her bday. It should be a good time. I really need to cut the grass today. The weeds are getting a little tall.Β
CS/Q:Β Iβm hoping I oβd cd 15 so we have a better chance with our timing. Iβm just so annoyed with dh and his issues the past couple of days. Like I donβt have enough to deal with π.
Edit I forgot dpo
So exciting about the race! How many people are on your squad?Β
My normal running squad is 4 people but the relay has 6 people and goes from Pawtucket RI to Hartford. Itβs called the RiMaConn because it goes through three states! Currently itβs called 5 ladies and a dude but we need a better name.
btw either way your timing looks like you have been covered. You are lucky to have such an early o date. Weβve been doing SMEP which is EOD starting on CD 8 and I havenβt been ovulating until day 23/25ish and it is fβing exhausting.Β

Month/Cycle: 10/1AL
CD/DPO: 16/unsure
Timing: ED CD10-15
Typical LP length: 14-16 days
Testing: not for a while
R/R: I am pretty sure I Oβd. I didnβt use OPKs because there wasnβt anything I could change anyways (MH was gone until CD 10). But now Iβm wishing I had so I could know for sure. Probably going to HIO a little while longer just in case. I guess there are worse things right?Β
CS/Q: nope
@leksiL Iβve had cycles where I havenβt ovulated until cd 18/19. Of course that was when we tried smep and we had trouble with it lol. This is our first clomid cycle and I had great follicular response. Dh just got in his head too much and I had my hopes too high for timing. I was wanting cd15 and 16, but we failed.Β
CD/DPO: 21/4 now according to FF
Timing: hopefully good, could've been better but DH (and kind of me too though) hasbeen too tired last couple days
Typical LP length: not sure, first month tracking
Testing: not for another week
R/R: shopping for new dishes because ours are old/chipped like crazy and also, we just celebrated our 2 year anniversary, which is the China anniversary (modern) so it seems fitting. I'd be fully enjoying getting to shop around but DH and I haven't been agreeing on anything! I want something simple, classic, timeless. I'd love plain white with maybe a small decal or embossing but DH wants something more "interesting" π Generally he lets me have choose what goes in our kitchen since I'm the only one who cooks and it's basically considered MY kitchen, but he's holding firm. I suppose I should just give in but honestly, the man has bad taste with this!Β
CS/Q: not sure why FF says I O'd the day before I got positive OPKs. It even states it doesn't match up with my temp so who even knows!
@kbrown2385 sounds like you have a fun evening planned! I love celebrating birthdays π
@bobbyflies2020 ooh, those sound like nice gifts! Chanel No 5is so classic! I'm sure your gifts will be so appreciated π
@kbrown2385 - -2 has the highest chances of becoming pregnant, so you should be good!
@bobbyflies2020 - That's a sweet gift for your mom and grandma. I need to send my mom somethingΒ π€
@peppyj9 - Picking out dishes for the kitchen should be fun! I'm sorry that you and YH are butting heads about this. I'm partial to stoneware over ceramic.
Month/Cycle: 12/12
CD/DPO: 21/6
Timing: EOD
Typical LP length: 12
Testing: Probably Monday or Tuesday
R/R: Tonight I get to go to a play that DH has been working as stage manager/set builder. I'm super excited to see all his work!
I feel kinda cranky today, and I'm not sure why. It's probably just a surge of estrogen that's got me on edge.
CS/Q:Β
@kbrown2385 Sorry about the cat waking you up! Enjoy your time with friends tonight!Β
@bobbyflies2020 Such a cute gift!!! Enjoy your walk!
@MrsJessS Nothing wrong with a little extra HIO for good measure!
@peppyj9 Yay to new dishes! Hopefully you guys can agree on something!
@marebear15 That's so fun about the play - hope you have a good time! Sorry you're feeling cranky!
Month/Cycle: 9/9
CD/DPO: 22/6
Timing: Not good enough.
Typical LP length: Never just right lol.
Testing: Probably not.
R/R: So on Monday I had to get a bunch of tests for my dog. They found a tumor, were worried about her peeing a lot, etc. Everything came back great! The tumor is a fatty tumor so even though it isn't ideal - they usually are slow growing and it's not cancerous. Today I successfully was able to get a urine sample for her to bring to the vet. I had it in a ziplock baggie and everything. IT SPILLED IN THE BAGGIE. So I had to clean it all up in my work bathroom. NOT IDEAL. BUT IT'S FRIDAY!!!Β
CS/Q: Temp drop of doom. I was feeling AF symptoms yesterday so I'm not so happy about that!

@brookert615 maybe implantation dip and cramping? Got my fx for you this cycle! Glad your pup is ok!Β
Β
@peppyj9 choosing new dishes is a PITA. We finally made the plunge after having chipped and mismatched dishes for a couple years. Thankfully dh was on board with the white ones I chose. Hope you and yh are able to come to an agreement!Β
@leksiL Can you modify SMEP for late ovulation so you don't burn out?Β

@kbrown2385 lol at your testing prediction.Β
@MrsJessS I am jealous of your ability not to be obsessive bc YH was gone. When I was away during FW, I did OPKs for "data" bc I absolutely could not help myself & that was a whole fun mess of trying to do them while I was staying with friends.
@marebear15 Enjoy the play!
@brookert615 SO GLAD to hear that your pup's tumor isn't a bad guy! And πππat the pee-bag story. I feel like that one will go down in infamy. MH swears by this stuff called Nature's Miracle to get rid of pee smells, if that's an issue.
Month/Cycle: 7/3AL
CD/DPO: 19/5
Timing: FF says "high"
Typical LP length: 14-16 days
Testing: I was going to try wait until *next* Sunday (14 DPO) so basically WFAF, but then that day is toooo loaded for that, so probably 1 week from today? If I can bear to wait? I might have to make another meme for us about that, now that I am a meme-making machine.
R/R: So much to catch up on today before a campus event tonight! I invented this awards show when I was prez of our dept.'s grad student govt last year & they are following thru with the tradition this evening! My poetry reading went super well last night--so much so that someone who was there sent me an email at like 1am and must have been drunk & forgot & sent me another one this morning, both congratulating me on doing a great job. Yay!
CS/Q: In lieu of my chart, I give you this beautiful meme I have made for us:

@kbrown2385 - your timing is totally decent.Β sorry you've had a lot going on
@peppyj9 - have fun shopping!
@brookert615 - hooray for good test results!Β must be a big relief
@kagesstarshroom - so glad your read went well and love the drunken congratulatory emails. love the meme!

@kagesstarshroom so glad the reading went well! That meme is perfect!Β
@MrsJessS thanks!! Those ones look cute! We'll take a closer look π I'm still so confused on when/if I actually O'd... but your plan of just HIO is always a safe bet!
@kbrown2385 it really is! Ours are chipped to hell.Β
@brookert615 thanks! And OMG about dog urine!! π hope he is OK!
@sevenn thanks! Hmm, never tried mobile ordering! Glad it worked out well for you! π
