Re: TWW Weekend 8/3-8/4
Month/Cycle: 8/9
CD/DPO: 23/8
Timing: -4,-3,-1,O
Typical LP length: 12
Testing: Tuesday
R/R: We have a fun weekend planned! We are hanging out with some friends today and might go to a winery. I won’t drink much since I’m getting later in the TWW but they usually have live music in the afternoons on weekends so it should be fun. Tomorrow we are celebrating FILs birthday. I’m glad we have plans to distract me from obsessing over my (mostly absent) symptoms
CS/Q: ugh, huge drop. Off to google implantation dips...
Month/Cycle: 7/4/2 AL
CD/DPO: 22/8
Timing: just once
Typical LP length: 12ish
Testing: never
R/R: This might be my first cycle TTC that I'm actually able to hold off on testing. I'm out of town for work Monday- Thursday and we are camping Thursday & Friday and going out of town for Saturday night. Typing that out I realized tomorrow will be my last night in my bed for a week! And if AF comes, that will be sucking timing for camping.
CS/Q: nothing to see

@millpe ahhh camping + AF doesn’t sound fun, but camping does! Are you guys going somewhere far? Sounds like you have a lot to keep you distracted!
Month/Cycle: 21/22
CD/DPO: 15/ no clue
Timing: ? Hopefully covered our bases
Typical LP length: 14-15
Testing: The 14th (will be 2 weeks after trigger shot)
R/R: I have no idea what I should base O off of haha. It’s stressing me out for the DPO up there! Oh well. Today should be fun- we’re going to “green egg fest” at a local hardware store with DH’s family and my BFF+ her little fam. You pay like $20 and there are a bunch of different tents set up with different cooks, then a huge buffet of food..and everything is cooked in a green egg! I’m just glad I’m going to the gym in 20 min before I eat my face off 😂 Then my uncle and 2 little cousins will be driving through on their way back from junior olympics in NC and we’re going to go to CPK for dinner. Apparently it’s my cousin’s favorite and she’s turning 13 today so my uncle wanted to do something fun for her. She totally thinks she’s too cool for me now, but I’ll hold onto the memories of her as a little kid and worshipping my every move haha! Tomorrow DH and I will most likely pull the trigger on a new washer dryer set. Wooooooo
CS/Q: nope
ETA CD
Good morning!
Month/Cycle: 12/11/1st AL#2
CD/DPO: 31/10
Timing: -4, -3, -2, -1
Typical LP length: 12-14 days
Testing: Blood test if I make it to 8/9 with no spotting/AF
R/R: I had a really vivid dream last night that I was KU. Like I could feel him/her moving and everything. Subconscious, WHY do you do this to me?? Oh, and I spoke too soon about feeling OK on the progesterone. Yesterday the bloat and hot flashes hit and OMG it sucks.
CS/Q: *sigh* I give up trying to interpret this hot mess. Had some cramping yesterday and I know what that means.
@bows22 your visit to the winery sounds like so much fun! Have a little wine for me, please! I can't drink right now on these supplements because they make me super-tired.
@millpe have fun camping! Hope AF doesn't crash the party.
@emeraldduchess I hate those dreams! Hoping it's a sign for you though 🤞

@bows22 - have fun at the winery and at the bday party tomorrow! that sounds like a lovely weekend. Sorry about the temp drop but I hope it is implantation!
@millpe - camping in the park sounds fun! I hope AF stays away!
@b_1029 - I'm with you this month on not being fully confident of DPO! I was also confused about the green egg and had to Google.
That sounds like a fun weekend!
@emeraldduchess - I hope the dream is a good sign! It wouldn't be unheard of... Let's just pay attention to the dream and not the slight temp drop!
Month/Cycle: 12/11
CD/DPO: 36/10
Timing: good I think
Typical LP length: 14
Testing: nope
R/R: Not feeling optimistic about this cycle! I feel exactly the same as I always do a few days before AF is expected. Boob tenderness and slight cramps. I'm kind of "whatever" at the moment and am sort of looking forward to calling my doctor and saying "Okay it's been a year, let's get moving on something." I already had some hormone testing earlier this year (all okay) and want an SA for my SO like yesterday! I wish his doctor hadn't told him last year that he should wait a full year before looking into anything...he is 40! I was a few weeks away from being 35 when I started getting things tested but I feel like there's this attitude among so many people that age is really only a factor for women. Anyway....can you tell I'm supposed to be working right now?? Hope everyone is having a good start to their weekend!
CS/Q: nope
@b_1029 your day sounds so fun! It made me so hungry reading.
@emeraldduchess ugh I’m sorry about the dream. I hate that. I hope the cramps are a good sign versus bad!
@whitealbum29 I hope you don’t need to make that call to your doctor, but I love the attitude! Sometimes doctors need a little pushing
@whitealbum29 ugh that's frustrating about the dr telling H to wait a year! I hope hope hope this is your cycle, but if not I would definitely encourage your H to get an SA. I'm sorry if I should know this, but will you be pursuing any treatment if this cycle isnt the one? (Again, really hoping it is!!).

Testing: yeah I caved and poas today.
R/R: the waiting game is sooo torturous but I did manage to enjoy a nice picnic today.
CS/Q: thirst! Have any of you ladies been extremely thirsty around 8-9dpo resulting in a bfp?
@bows22 super early! FX for you my friend!
@millpe very fun!
@whitealbum29 I hope you both are able to get moving quickly on some testing! Sorry you feel like you’re out this cycle.
@bows22 FX it’s just too early!
AFM: Pretty sure AF came today at CD23....I'm just glad this seemingly an-o cycle has been short. Moving onto trying for May BMB!
@whitealbum29 hugs to you too, friend. That's annoying that your SO's doctor said to wait a whole year. Hopefully you can start the testing process soon for both of you.
@bows22 9dpo is definitely VERY early! FX so hard for you!
@bows22 boo BFN! But it is still early! I know I just said yesterday I wasn't going to test, but now I have the urge to test tomorrow before leaving
