Re: TWW Tuesday 5/21
*from yesterday*
@keikilove that's awesome that you could do an IUI right away! FX for you!
@ihaveprayed hope your presentation went well!
@nolemama24 happy belated anniversary. Sorry you and your DH couldn't be together to celebrate.
@whitealbum29 your weekend sounds lovely!
@puppylove8910 I can't stand those BSC dreams during the TWW! But I hope yours was prophetic.
@misshelen86 welcome back! We missed you too! Glad you had a nice time with your mom.

CD/DPO: 27/9
Timing: -5, -2, -1, 0
Typical LP length: 14
Testing: probably WFAF early next week.
R/R: I woke up an hour before my alarm and couldn't get back to sleep, ughh. But happy it's a pretty perfect day out today and that we're planning a couple of short trips coming up.
CS/Q: nope
CD/DPO: 27/12 or 13
Timing: Terrible
Typical LP length: 13
Testing: Nope, I expect AF today or tomorrow.
R/R: I'm going to this free informational presentation/seminar thing at my local "The Wellness Way" to see what they are all about. It is about their approach to inflammation. A year ago when I was looking for a more functional medicine minded practitioner I couldn't really find any in my area and went with the only one I found. While they have helped me a ton, I'm not sure they are right for me at this point in my healing journey. I'm interested to see what this place is all about. I guess they have clinics popping up all over the US. My local chapter is very active on social media and while it is obviously a business ploy, it seems like they genuinely want to spread they word that there is another way to feel better. My mom is coming with me too and I am excited, she is learning more about her health and advocating for herself after seeing my journey. She is diabetic and has high blood pressure. I recently found out that her latest TSH was at 6 and her doctor didn't think that warranted looking into.

Timing: Excellent
Typical LP length: 13-14
Testing: I was going to WFAF, but been having quite a few symptoms so may test this weekend... I will try and wait til DPO 12-13 at least!
Rave: Weather has been so gorgeous! I am loving Barcelona and it's been so relaxing hanging out in the warm sun.
Rant: I am annoyed at myself for SS. I know it's our first time trying and unlikely but it's so hard not too. Hopefully next month I will be calmer.
@ihaveprayed that sounds fun! Time to just enjoy the conference!
@misshelen86 hooray for half days and workouts! Those are the best! What are you going to do?
@whitealbum29 boo on not being able to go back to sleep, but the weather has been so nice, glad you're enjoying it!
@m6agua That sounds awesome - it's so great that your mom has been inspired to take her health into her own hands!
@samvsimpson Enjoy Barcelona!!!
Month/Cycle: 8/8
CD/DPO: 25/8
Timing: -2, -1, 0
Typical LP length: 12-14
Testing: Nope nope nope....
R/R: The SS is real, ladies. I'm trying to restrain the crazy and sternly telling myself every time I "notice" something to knock it off. I did have a really nice morning run, so I'm riding the endorphin high today which will hopefully help.

CD/DPO: 20/5
Timing: -6, -2, -1, +1
Typical LP: 14
Testing: I plan on waiting another week for an actual (I hope) missed AF.
R/R: none. This is my first cycle off of the pill. And I have to say it feels great! I am weaning off of my zoloft and am so happy to do so! My anxiety had been through the roof and my Blood pressure was elevated. I started the zoloft 8 months ago to help control both. My doctor said both could be hormonal and related to the birth control pill I had been on for 12+ years. The past 2 weeks I have felt such a difference!
