    Month/Cycle: 5/5

    CD/DPO: 21/1?

    Timing: Good!

    Typical LP length: It's been short the past two cycles. :neutral:

    Testing: Not for a while.

    R/R: I wasn't around here over the long weekend, since my mobile app sucks and we were out of our normal routine. It was a nice weekend though, and we managed to HIO several times during the FW. My LP has only been 8 days the past few cycles, so we'll see what happens. Part of it may all have to do with my irregular temping times and ugly chart. (See below)

    CS/Q: My chart is a mess! Lots of open circles, since I've been off work and didn't temp at 1am. No crosshairs yet either, but I'm going with it.

  • Good morning, ladies! Who else keeps thinking it's Monday?

    Month/Cycle: 10/9 (4th cycle AL)

    CD/DPO: 26/11 or 12

    Timing: good

    Typical LP length: 12-14 days

    Testing: Nope, just WFAF at this point.

    R/R: Had a messy meltdown last night over end-of school stress, ttc stress, family stress...you get the idea. DH was less than sympathetic. We have a field trip today which I hope is fun. It's going to be structured with specific activities rather than a free-for-all, thank goodness. 

    CS/Q: Didn't temp this morning. I am taking this busted cycle harder than I thought I would. It's also turning out to be a much shorter cycle than normal which is doing nothing for my nerves.  I need to step away from Google. 
  • Month/Cycle: 2/1

    CD/DPO: 32/8 estimated since I’m not temping)

    Timing: -4,-3,-1,0,+1

    Typical LP length: not sure I think ~12 days

    Testing: I’ll take my first test 5/30

    R/R: Still no AC but parts that were missing should get here tomorrow! I’m all screwed up with this long weekend and woke up thinking  it was Monday. Also I fell off the diet and exercise train hard this long weekend so trying to get back on it today!

    CS/Q: is there any benefit to FF VIP if you aren’t temping? I might attempt to temp next cycle but my wake up times are still so variable idk if I’ll get much from it.

  • @MrsVP614 FX your LP is longer this time. I only mobile bump so I just use my browser instead of the app bc the app annoys me. 

    @emeraldduchess I’m so sorry you’re having a hard time with this cycle. Try to be kind to yourself and maybe do something just for you today!

  • Month/Cycle: 7 A, I think

    CD/DPO: FF says 3 dpo.  Pretty sure I am 2 and it will shift tomorrow. 

    Timing: Good 

    Typical LP length: 13 

    Testing: Probably 9 dpo.

    R/R: 2 days until we close on our house!  I cant wait to get through the next 2 days!  We took 3 trips to Lowes yesterday to look at kitchen appliances. 

    CS/Q none
  • Month/Cycle: 2/1 AL

    CD/DPO: 29/14

    Timing: -5, -3, -1, O

    Typical LP length: 12-13 days

    Testing: I'm not. Spotting has started.

    R/R: Well, this TWW has been the ultimate mindf*ck and I am glad to see it's over. I started spotting so I'm sure AF will be here later today or early tomorrow. I haven't cramped this long leading up to AF in a long, long time so I wonder if my hormones are a bit off since my *TW, CP* last cycle. Silver lining, I leave for London at the end of the week. But I genuinely HATE flying with AF 😭😭

  • Month/Cycle: 3/3

    CD/DPO: 19/6? (not sure on DPO because i'm not tracking it, so just a guess)

    Timing: Good. HIO multiple times during my FW, but had a 3 day lull when I got sick with a cold virus! Hopefully I had already ovulated, but we will see.

    Typical LP length: don't know

    Testing: will not test unless I miss my period (that is what i'm telling myself, at least ;) )

    R/R:
    Rant: I'm feeling extremely anxious right now. I woke up with panic attacks through the night, and this morning hasn't been much better. We are in the middle of a move, so I can't be too surprised I'm having this reaction! Trying to breatheeeeeee


    Rave: I'm finally feeling much better after a nasty cold virus! I reported in on Friday that I had a sore throat, but it progressed even further by Saturday! I was bedridden until Sunday morning, but I started to improve after that. HECK YES for my body bouncing back quickly!

    CS/Q: n/a

    No time to reply back to everyone right now! If I get time this afernoon, I will try to respond to you all! Back to packing! *hugs to everyone and wishing us all a relaxing TWW*

    @puppylove8910 @emeraldduchess so sorry about the rough/busted cycles! I was a couple days ahead of both of you and was hopeful for all three of us last week! :(
  • Month/Cycle: 1/1

    CD/DPO: 15/1

    Timing: -2,-1,0,1

    Typical LP length: 14-16

    Testing: 9 dpo, plus 

    R/R: being optimistic so these two weeks don’t drag by, but realistic!

     **TW** my oldest daughter somehow caught on to the fact that we’re trying again, and is really excited. I tried to tell her it wasn’t true, so she won’t get her hopes up...just Incase! Secretly, I’m praying to be able to tell her! Like we probably all are! 

    CS/Q: what are you ladies doing to distract yourself these next few weeks!? My goal, stay super busy!

    @MrsVP614 - nice timing!  hope you get your CH soon
    @emeraldduchess - ugh, your DH's lack of sympathy is definitely frustrating.. like you put it all out there and then.. womp womp... i definitely know the feeling
    @kerco925 - exciting about your upcoming closing!  any frontrunners on appliances?
    @flowntheloop - hopefully your nerves settle down soon <3

    Month/Cycle: 7/7

    CD/DPO: 17/6

    Timing: -3, O

    Typical LP length: 14d

    Testing: WFAF 

    R/R: return to work after this long weekend is hitting me hard and i am hateful.  usually i can pull myself out of it with a delicious coffee but i think i'm resigned to it.  hopefully it will wear off as i have a ton to do today!  in fun news, we came home to a semi-surprise set of triplet baby goats last night!  i mentioned my goats in yesterday's post- we have a herd of about 40, 25 of which are babies born earlier this year.  very fun- most of the time!

    R/R: I had such a good time out with my friend IRL yesterday who is also TTC. Going out with friends and *by myself* has been such a helpful distraction. Yesterday I barely thought about the TWW once. 

    Happy short week, everyone!

    @puppylove8910 Sorry about AF. I hate having cramps for the entire TWW. It always means nothing for me in the end.

    @flowntheloop Sorry about the anxiety. Panic attacks are the worst and I wouldnt wish them on my worst enemy. Good luck with your move.

    @emeraldduchess I am so sorry ❤ I hope the end of school moves quickly and smoothly for you.

    @kerco925 FX for you! Lowes trips sounds exhausting. I hope you find your dream appliances!

    @sevenn I love goats. 40 is a ton!! Is this your main line of work? Goat triplets sound like a handful (but really cute!!)

  • @bobbyflies2020 @sevenn Thank you both. I'm feeling a little more calm this afternoon. I guess pairing a move with my TWW can make me a little more crazy than usual :) Here's to hoping the move just keeps my mind off of it rather than making it more difficult!

    @MrsVP614 Congrats on all of the HIO! Wishing you lots of luck this cycle!

    @emeraldduchess It really DOES feel like a Monday! So sorry for all of your stress and your meltdown. I can totally relate right now. And, guh! I hate it when guys are douchey like that! WTF

    @puppylove8910 So sorry about AF. :cry:

  • @MrsVP614 I hope your LP is longer this cycle. FX for you!

    @emeraldduchess I'm so sorry you're having such a rough cycle as well. I'm having a hard time today too. :( Thinking of you!

    @varimama I haven't signed up for FF VIP yet, but did so in 2015-2016. I don't quite remember all the benefits of it, but if you're not temping then I don't think it would be worth it.

    @kerco925 Good luck with the closing! What an exciting (& I bet, stressful) time. BUT it's a great TWW distraction! 

    @flowntheloop I'm glad your virus has left, but please take care of yourself. Thinking of you and hoping your anxiety lessens once the move is complete.

    Thank you @whitealbum29. It was a tough TWW and I'm just feeling blah. I'll see you over in WTO now that AF is officially here. 

    @kmornelas29 Definitely staying busy helps! And trying not to Google every single little feeling. Like what I did this month. 😂 That didn't help at all!

    @sevenn Oh wow! Baby goats are so cute!

    @bobbyflies2020 That's so great that you had a wonderful weekend! Nothing is better than distractions during the TWW.
