b_1029 · July 2019

Month/Cycle: 20/21

CD/DPO: 24/11ish

Timing: great

Typical LP length: 14-15

Testing: bfn today

R/R: well I guess I’m not one of the unicorns who gets KU right before they go to the RE, so that’s dumb. I’m honestly starting to doubt I’ll ever see a second line on a test but at least I can always look at the first tri board to see what they look like. As you can tell I’m in a horrid mood- woke up on the wrong side of the bed anyway without the bfn. Just gotta get till 2 pm today when I get to leave work and go to the RE, then I’m not logging on after.

CS/Q: the only shred of hope I have is because most of my higher temps were nights when I was tossing and turning.

@b_1029 I’m sorry for the BFN. I hope the appointment goes well.

Month/Cycle: 2/2 AL

CD/DPO: 23/8

Timing: -2, +1

Typical LP length: 10

Testing: Maybe Saturday if AF isn’t here first (it usually comes in the mornings)

R/R: I vacillate between BSC and mental period prepping. These psychosomatic “pregnancy” symptoms are insane. But also I’m having all my usual PMS and pre-period symptoms. I wish bodies and minds weren’t so ridiculous.

@b_1029 So sorry about the bfn friend

GL at the appointment today!

ruby696 · July 2019

@b_1029 I'm so sorry for the BFN. I hope your appointment goes well and I hope you'll update us tomorrow.

@tyrion_ Your chart looks great! FX your mental period prepping is a waste of time.

Month/Cycle: 20/

CD/DPO: 10

Timing: A+

Typical LP length: 10-12 days

Testing: Daily. 😕

R/R: Well another BFN today. I was also hoping I'd be a magical unicorn and get KU'd before starting IVF, but either 1) the pee tests are wrong or 2) I'm not a magical unicorn. Lame.

CS/Q: Nope.

kiki047 · July 2019

*lurking*
Oh @b_1029 you know I was rooting for you to activate your magical unicorn powers. In any case, I hope your appt goes well today.

Maybe we can be IUI buddies next cycle.

b_1029 · July 2019

@tyrion_ I hate the TWW mindf-ck! Keeping everything crossed for you!

@misshelen86 thank you ❤️

@ruby696 damn it, why can’t we be magical unicorns together?! Sorry for the bfn.

@kiki047 Love it when you lurk me! If you can convince DH to do an IUI then maybe we can be buds! Haha. Thank you ❤️

kiki047 · July 2019

@b_1029 what's his #? I'm on it.

mvt2003 · July 2019

@b_1029 So sorry lady! I'm rooting for you, hopefully you have a good RE appt!

@tyrion_ I feel the same way. I'm continually trying to tell myself I am absolutely NOT KU. However I am also the same girl who passed on the gym steam room last night and didn't take mucinex just in case.... Sigh.

@ruby696 So sorry about the BFN.

Will do my update in a few. I have a rant coming on lol.

mvt2003 · July 2019

Month/Cycle: 10/10

CD/DPO: 25/9

Timing: Good

Typical LP length: 12-14

Testing: Trying to hold out for Friday. We'll see how that goes.

R/R: Brace ladies, this is a rant! So thanks to Prime Day, MH accidentally saw my amazon search history. Normally nbd, but this time he saw I searched for Patriots onesies and was like UM WHY ARE YOU DOING THAT NO, BAD LUCK STOP. Basically, he doesn't even want it in our house. He told me that he does not want anything but me and the test strip. He's so superstitious, so I get it, but I'm majorly bummed. Both of my parents have passed away, so the only person I was going to get to "tell" would have been him. Guess I'll have to hide the baby board book I've already bought....

CS/Q: I almost feel too optimistic when I look at this chart. I really should stop temping, but I can't stop myself. Next cycle I promise I'll give it up as soon as I get CHs.

@b_1029 I'm so sorry for the BFN and rough morning. Best of luck with your RE appt, and I hope you get to take a little relaxation break for yourself after. Hugs!

@tyrion_ I hate the mind-body tricks EVERY DAMN CYCLE.

@ruby696 I'm really sorry you're also not a unicorn. You and @b_1029 both deserve to be the most beautiful of unicorns!

@mvt2003 Awwww, that's sweet but also frustrating. Also, I might stop temping after CHs next cycle to avoid the crippling disappointment when my temps drop like this cycle.

sevenn · July 2019

@b_1029 - so sorry for your disappointment, i can feel it for you through your post. hugs. hope your RE appt gives you back your optimism
@tyrion_ i hear ya with the SS.
@ruby696 - sorry for the BFN. can't we all be unicorns?!

@mvt2003 - is it bad that i find that superstitious nature rather endearing? lol! go pats!

Month/Cycle: 9/9

CD/DPO: 16/7

Timing: -2, -1

Typical LP length: 14d

Testing: hopefully holding out til 10 DPO but realistically 9 all bc of that FRER in my drawer

R/R: a good friend is having her first IUI today. i am so excited and hopeful for her.

CS/Q: nah. spotty temping for me post-O

ruby696 · July 2019

@mvt2003 I'm completely superstitious too, so I totally get YH. I don't even like to post my charts because I'm afraid it might jinx me. 😂 Can you keep the onesie at work so he doesn't know you still have it?

@sevenn You've got more willpower than me! I've been testing daily since 8dpo. Maybe I'm just a glutton for punishment.

mvt2003 · July 2019

@sevenn Ha it's not bad, it's actually kind of sweet and I know he wants this (almost) as badly as I do. Also a fellow New England fan?! Yay!!!!

mvt2003 · July 2019

@ruby696 I actually decided not to buy the onesie, I bought Jimmy Fallon's dada book.

I had already had it shipped to work. I'll sneak it home and will hide it in my craft closet. I was on the fence about doing it, but I felt like it's my symbol of hope. That no matter how tired I feel, and how burned out I feel, and how angry I feel at people in my life who literally sneeze and get KU, I still have hope.

shamrocandroll · July 2019

@sevenn @mvt2003 NE sports fan here, too! Everything except the Celtics.

shamrocandroll · July 2019

Month/Cycle: 12/ 3 AL

CD/DPO: 33/13

Timing: Good

Typical LP length: 14

Testing: WFAF, but will test again Saturday if she hasn't shown by then.

R/R: Our septic, plumbing, and fridge are all fixed as of yesterday afternoon! I am SO relieved, and hoping that's the end of things breaking on us for a LONG TIME after this!

CS/Q: 🤷‍♀️

inthewoods23 · July 2019

*lurking TWW*
I also recommend the book Experimenting with Babies if you're looking for a fun read 😄

lcking82 · July 2019

@shamrocandroll: take that, Mercury!! (I mean, silently gloating, with fingers crossed that everything stays fixed!)

@mvt2003: I love that your DH is invested! I'm kind of superstitious about these things, too!

@sevenn: loving the honesty about resisting testing

@b_1029: I'm so so sorry. Allow yourself to mourn - it's a-okay. This whole journey just blows.

@ruby696: Also sorry about the BFN. Sucks sucks sucks.

Month/Cycle: 11/10

CD/DPO: 35/??

Timing: well, who knows now?

Typical LP length: 14 days

Testing: BFN at "15 dpo" - which was NOT 15dpo, apparently

R/R: Just my ovaries/uterus - come on, kids, make up your mind and do something already. I keep going to check if AF has started, and simultaneously am sad and happy when no action. I also hate myself for having the small hope that I'm still in the game (spoiler alert- I'm really not....our BD has been so scant and spotty!)

CS/Q: Nothing to see here except a chart that won't end.

sevenn · July 2019

@lcking82 - that was me last cycle! Super annoying

tyrion_ · July 2019

@sevenn Your FRER might be a bad influence on me because I’m wavering on whether or not to test tomorrow with one of my 80 cheapies.
