@varimama - I love the drive in! I moved to New England two years ago and had never been to one before, it's such a fun weekend activity. The ones around us all seem to be playing Aladdin and Avengers too. @emeraldduchess - your chart looks great!

CS/Q: nope
Happy FriYAY! I fully expect AF to show over the weekend when I'm offline, so I'll probably resurface in the WO thread on Tuesday. I hope everyone has a fun and safe weekend! Happy summer!!!!
@varimama the drivein sounds fun! It's on our summer bucket list but haven't made it there yet! The problem is the one closest to us is an hour away, which makes for a very very late night! #wereold #over30
@emeraldduchess your chart is soooo pretty!!!! And takeout pizza sounds perfect!
@keikilove wild weekend!!! LOL!
@whitealbum29 Boooooo on working Monday!!!!

R/R: Tennis got cancelled due to weather last night, but I did get a nice little run in this morning. Focusing on my activity helps keep me sane in the TWW. My office is super quiet today, so I'm def sneaking out a little early! Extra long weekend for moi!!!

Typical LP length: 12-14 days
Testing: Probably 10 dpo
R/R: Sigh. According to Google, O usually happens within 24 hours after your LH peaks. But based on CM, I think I may have stopped HIO too soon. Womp, womp.
*TMI* Anyone else use Pre-seed and find it difficult to figure out their CM after HIO?

@emeraldduchess I missed the update about your RE appointment. Testing is such a mixed bag of emotions. Hopefully you get a chance to relax this weekend!
@keikilove I hope grading goes smoothly.

@mvt2003 ours is 45 min away so it’ll be so late. I’ve packed all the caffeine and Saturday we will be useless human beings 🤣 Sneaking our early is the best! Enjoy the long weekend
@bobbyflies2020 I have no advice on the CM bc I actually have the same question and might have done the same thing! I found one graph that says you can have EWCM up to 2 days after O which was about what I saw but idk most seem to say 24 hours. And yes I’ve also been nervous that I’m mistaking semen or pressed for EWCM 😬

Testing: I have to decided to hold off completely until Monday (13 dpo- when AF would be due).
R/R: So ready for the long weekend and we are supposed to have beautiful weather ALL 3 days! I seriously can't believe it. Haha! Rant- ALLERGIES are kicking my behind this past week. I'm just itchy and sluggish.
CS/Q: I temp vaginally. Would allergies affect temps if temping vaginally? Thanks!

@emeraldduchess Your chart is looking SUPER pretty! FX you won't need any of the RE testing. BUT, if you do need the testing, try and take it step by step. One test at a time.
@keikilove Your chart is looking great too!
@whitealbum29 I'm sorry you need to work on Monday.
@mvt2003 Enjoy the long weekend!!
@bobbyflies2020 I use Pre Seed. I feel like I'm able to distinguish pretty well between Pre Seed and EWCM. I find that the Pre Seed looks the same going in as it does coming out (if that makes sense, haha!). Also, it doesn't seem to be stretchy like my fertile EWCM...more of a thick liquid.

@bobbyflies2020 I use Preseed too and like @puppylove8910 said, it's not stretchy like EWCM.
@mvt2003 enjoy your extra-long weekend! I hope AF doesn't show. 🤞
@whitealbum29 I'm sorry you don't have Monday off, but enjoy the quality time with your SO!
@keikilove your chart looks great! Hope you can take a break from grading and relax.
@varimama that's quite the marathon of movie-watching! Get lots of snacks. 🍿🥨🍫
@puppylove8910 good luck holding out testing! Enjoy the beautiful weather!
@emeraldduchess I packed so many snacks! I made subs and packed cherries, a giant tub of cheese balls (DHs request, they are his fav), trail mix, gummy bears, and sour patch kids. Plus Monsters and Diet Pepsi to stay awake lol

@emeraldduchess We really are twins this month.. I’m ordering pizza tonight too! Glad you’ve got all the tests being done, keeping FX this will be your month though! Your chart looks awesome. Testing buddies sounds great.. I was thinking Wednesday or Thursday?
@keikilove Enjoy the long weekend! Hopefully you can find some time for something fun!
@whitealbum29 Enjoy your weekend. Anything fun planned?
@mvt2003 I agree with keeping as busy as possible with TWW. Have a great weekend!
@bobbyflies2020 I’ve had EWCM at odd times, not necessarily right before O.. either way, it looks like you were HIO enough you should be ok!
@puppylove8910 Sorry about the allergies.. hope you are able to enjoy that weather!

R/R: It’s been a stressful few days. I got notified my gastroscopy was cancelled and rescheduled for 5 weeks later which was incredibly frustrating.. I’d like to get this issue fixed ASAP so I can be healthy enough to make a baby! (I’m getting tested for Celiac disease). I ended up speaking with a very kind receptionist who pulled some strings to get me in next week! So pizza tonight to celebrate. Just realized what a weird thing I’m celebrating, but I’ll do anything to get KU!
CS/Q: Pretty chart!
