Good morning!!!

Month/Cycle: 10/10

CD/DPO: 21/4

Timing: Ok

Typical LP length: Average around 11

Testing: Probably Monday lol

R/R: The storms are so bad! DH has to drive his brother home last night because his car broke down. He called and asked if I wanted to ride up and we could get food aka Chik-fil-a 🤤. There were lines down on the highway so the shut down a chunk of the highway and were detouring everyone on the exit! What a mess! I got my spicy chicken sammie and peach milkshake so all is good I guess lol. On the way home it was closed southbound so we had to take a scenic route until we could jump on. Felt so bad for everyone stuck!

CS/Q:

NYTino24 · May 2019

Month/Cycle: 6/6

CD/DPO: 26/8

Timing: -4, -1, O+1

Typical LP length: short and all over the place

Testing: maybe soon if my temp doesn’t go down

R/R: I have some mouth ulcers, which I used to get in the TWW due to the progesterone surge. I think it means my progesterone is going up and back to normal. Hopefully this means a normal LP!

CS/Q: I had a jump instead of a drop!!!

@brookert615 It’s always worth it when it ends in a milkshake!

mrsvp614 · May 2019

@brookert615 mmmm milkshake!

@nytino24 Sorry about the ulcers, but yay for temp spike!

Month/Cycle: 5/5

CD/DPO: 23/6?

Timing: Good?

Typical LP length: It's only been 8 these past 2 cycles.

Testing: Not until next week.

R/R: Rave: I shared in randoms, but my boss told me he's leaving. I'm happy, since he's kind of an AH, but nervous about what it means for the future. This is also my last day of work this week. I'm taking tomorrow & monday off

CS/Q: I played with my times a bit, but FF still isn't giving me CH. I'm still going with O on day 17. Who knows.

NYTino24 · May 2019

@MrsVP614 Yay for positive work changes! I hope your LP lengthens.

bobbyflies2020 · May 2019

Month/Cycle: 4/4

CD/DPO: 23/8 -10 dpo

Timing: -5, -3, 1, 0

Typical LP length: 12-14

Testing: Saturday

R/R: MH suggested testing today, so I went along with it and got a BFN. I will retest this weekend but feel it is a bust.

I have some down time today so I plan on going on my 2 mile walk outside and following it up with some high resistance on my elliptical.

I used to do multiple cardio sessions a day but have been slacking lately.

CS/Q: I have heard Tylenol is safe to take while TTC. Does anyone else take it for cramps?

bobbyflies2020 · May 2019

@NYTino24 Crossing F+T for you this cycle!!

@brookert615 Lines down on the highway sounds pretty bad. Are you in the Mid-atlantic region? (if you don't mind me asking)

varimama · May 2019

Month/Cycle: 2/1

CD/DPO: 34/10 estimated since I’m not temping)

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

Typical LP length: not sure I think ~12 days

Testing: BFN not surprised but of course disappointed. I’ll test again Saturday just to be in the clear for sure for the Bridal shower I’m going to

R/R: I’m currently trying to rig up some sort of temporary curtain for when I have to pee today I realized when I woke up that all my curtains are gone and there will be half a dozen men working on/in my house. Should be fun times 😬

CS/Q: none

mrsvp614 · May 2019

@bobbyflies2020 I've always taken tylenol, especially for headaches
*TW*

I took it as pain relief through my previous pregnancy and was told it was okay.

varimama · May 2019

@brookert615 glad you guys are safe and you got your chik-fil-a!

@NYTino24 yay for the temp bump! Fx for you this cycle!

@MrsVP614 I hope you can switch shifts now!

@bobbyflies2020 sorry about the BFN

bobbyflies2020 · May 2019

@MrsVP614 Thanks for the reassurance!

@varimama Thanks. Sorry about yours, as well. Good call on the temporary curtains, lol!

sevenn · May 2019

Everyone is up and at em early today!

@brookert615 - wow that i an adventure! weather stuff is so scary. glad you are all okay and even managed some CFA out of it hehe
@NYTino24 - what a strange symptom! progesterone is whacky but that'd be great if its a good sign for you
@MrsVP614 - long weekend ftw!
@bobbyflies2020 - sorry for the BFN

yea, definitely go for it with the tylenol. IMO ibuprofen is fine too.

Month/Cycle: 7/7

CD/DPO: 19/8

Timing: -3, O

Typical LP length: 14d

Testing: WFAF?!

R/R: i've been out a town for a few days and supposedly some framing has happened on our addition! DH has refused to send me photos I think so I will be surprised, which is both irritating and endearing. can't wait to see for myself.

CS/Q: not much to see. cute temp spike this AM, happened last cycle too. i wonder if it just generally being hotter is resulting in an overall increase in my BBT.

NYTino24 · May 2019

@sevenn Isn’t it weird? My dentist actually told me it has to do with hormones. When I looked it up, he was right! He also told me about the link between *TW* MC and gum disease. */TW*

kmornelas29 · May 2019

Month/Cycle: 1/1

CD/DPO: 17/3

Timing: -2,-1,O,1

Typical LP length: 14-16

Testing: June 5th? 9 dpo?

R/R: I did really good in one interview yesterday, and I think I did horrible on the other. At least I did good on the position I wanted more!

CS/Q: none

brookert615 · May 2019

@NYTino24 Love seeing that temp jump! Normally I wouldn't be excited about mouth ulcers but that's awesome if it means things are going back to normal!

@MrsVP614 Enjoy your time off! Hope you get those CH's soon!

@bobbyflies2020 Sorry about the BFN. Hopefully this cycle isn't a bust!

Enjoy the workouts today! Also, I'm in southwestern PA! We have been getting hit a lot recently with some flash flooding and just high winds. The other day we had some pretty bad hail that caused damage to cars! Crazy!

@varimama Sorry about the BFN

. Hope you can figure out a way to hide today lol.

@sevenn Thank you!!! Yay on the progress in your addition! Look at that temp spike!

kagesstarshroom · May 2019

@kmornelas29 Glad you did well on yr interview!

@sevenn Yes, being in a different climate can affect overall BBT temps. It is based on the temp in the room you're in though--if it's cold outside but your heat is cranked, you might find yr temps are higher--and if you go to a friend's house and it's cold outside but they keep their AC on instead, they'd be lower, if that makes sense.

@varimama Sorry for the BFN, friend. =(

@nytino24 Yay for the jump instead of the drop!

@bobbyflies2020 I've taken tylenol for bad headaches and cramps since I've been TTC.

@brookert615 I hope you and yrs are okay after the storms! Some friends of mine in PA had some fallen trees--my one friend's mom had a tree fall on their deck. Wild.

Month/Cycle: 8/4AL

CD/DPO: 2 (still waiting for CHs, but should get them tomorrow)/17

Timing: if my O prediction date is accurate: -5, -3, -1, O

Typical LP length: ~16 days

Testing: not anytime soon.

R/R: DH has been having the roughest week. The guy he's working for has not been paid in forever (7 weeks--AGAIN) so they had to shut down that project... AGAIN & DH is the lead on the project--which means he is supposed to get paid a large amount at the end (and ideally weekly). Since the guy he's working for has to take a loss, though, bc of all the delays, DH now has to take one too--he's FURIOUS. He went above and beyond on this project. I feel so bad--plus, I haven't been able to get a job yet/figure out what I'm going to do for work this summer. Luckily, I get one more paycheck June 1 for teaching spring semester, but I'm a grad student so I barely get paid. Everything is just REALLY bad & I hate when DH is like this--he is SUPER sensitive and generally glum & there's nothing I can do about it. I feel like I need a rave now... My dissertation writing session w/ my friend went well yesterday. We wrote for an hour and talked for almost two. We're gonna try to make it half and half next week lol.

CS/Q: Got some open circles today bc I took my temp 5 minutes later than my latest BBT, but it's all still w/in an hour soooo it's fine.

**lurking: I missed my cycle buddy @kagesstarshroom in WTO so came here to check on her.

Ugh, I'm so sorry about the pay mess up! What does YH do? MH hasn't been paid in 4 weeks now because they keep passing him around from one person to another at the short term disability place, and I am getting SO ANGRY and wish I could call and yell at them for him!!! I hope he gets paid ASAP!

brookert615 · May 2019

@kagesstarshroom Sorry about YH - that's awful! I'm so sorry you guys are getting hit like that!!!

So happy to hear your dissertation writing went well! Also another rave YOU'RE IN THE TWW! YAY!

varimama · May 2019

@sevenn hope you like what they’ve done on the addition so far! That must be frustrating, I’m not good with surprises lol

@kmornelas29 glad you did better on the job you wanted more! Interviews are the worst

@kagesstarshroom That must be so hard for your DH and for you! I hope his work get sorted out soon and you find something for summer!

update on my privacy situation, I had some fun making paper “curtains” in spoiler 🤣

kagesstarshroom · May 2019

@shamrocandroll

he's a restoration carpenter. he basically swooped in & prevented a building from falling down/rotting to nothing & more. it's 25% of a much larger restoration project that now he doesn't even want to bid for. I FEEL YOU on wanting to call & yell at these people. MH says ppl are just so used to liars/getting screwed over, than the good people get screwed over now. & I'm like yup.

misshelen86 · May 2019

@brookert615 Traffic sounded like a nightmare, but your meal sounded so yummy! Now I want a milkshake!

@NYTino24 Wow that short looks fantastic! Sorry about the ulcers.

@MrsVP614 Hope you have a lovely long weekend!

@bobbyflies2020 Enjoy your workout! Tylenol is safe, but ibuprofen is not as it can interfere with ovulation and implantation.

@varimama Sorry for the BFN.

Pee party turned pity party?? Hope you find a solution so you can have privacy in your bathroom!

@sevenn It will probably be better to see it in person anyway! Hope you love it.

@kmornelas29 Hope you hear something back soon!

@kagesstarshroom Sorry YH is going through such a rough time right now. Glad your dissertation writing session went well!

Month/Cycle: 9/9

CD/DPO: 28/14

Timing: -4, 0, +1

Typical LP length: 12-14

Testing: BFN

R/R: Going for acupuncture this afternoon, where I will also hopefully get the results of DH’s SA. Then DH is going to take me out for a belated birthday dinner!

CS/Q: nah

kagesstarshroom · May 2019

@misshelen86 Sorry for the BFN. I hope your belated bday dinner is delicious.

brookert615 · May 2019

@misshelen86 Enjoy your acupuncture treatment (not sure how to refer to the appointment)! Hope you can get the results of the SA! Where are you guys going for your birthday dinner! By the way HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY!!!

misshelen86 · May 2019

@brookert615 Thanks friend! We are going to a local restaurant that makes delicious comfort food!

brookert615 · May 2019

@misshelen86 Oh yum! That sounds lovely! Enjoy yourself!!!!

varimama · May 2019

@misshelen86 sorry for your BFN too, hope you have a great belated birthday dinner and enjoy your acupuncture!

bobbyflies2020 · May 2019

@misshelen86 Sorry about the BFN. Enjoy your acupuncture and birthday dinner ❤

kagesstarshroom · May 2019

@shamrocandroll @brookert615 @varimama So to cheer MH up AND perhaps make some small amount of $ instead of the nothing I'm bringing in (I *do* get paid for May one last time on June 1 though, which maybe I mentioned--anyway,) I am putting some of his pottery together on an Etsy page. It's not live yet bc I want to show it to him before I make it public, but I hope it makes him happppyyyyy. I have been having fun doing, like, ceramix photo sessions in our backyard haha.

brookert615 · May 2019

@kagesstarshroom My goodness! How cute!!! My heart is melting because you're so stinkin' cute!

NYTino24 · May 2019

@kagesstarshroom That sucks. I hope they just hurry up and finish the project so you can get some cash flowing. Good luck with the job search and pottery business.
@varimama So creative! I’m laughing over here.

shamrocandroll · May 2019

@kagesstarshroom You might be the sweetest person ever. That is adorable of you!

kmornelas29 · May 2019

@misshelen86 Thanks! The wait to find out about the job is making me anxious! So much is up in the air right now. Hard for a type A personality.
