Re: TWW Friday 9/6
Month/Cycle: 9/10
CD/DPO: 29/11
Timing: -3,-1,O,+1
Typical LP length: 12
Testing: BFN today
R/R: My lack of symptoms had me hopeful. At least now I’ve had no symptoms, all of the symptoms, and everything in between so no matter what it means nothing.
CS/Q: I had a crappy night of sleep because I was anxious about testing so I didn’t bother temping
Month/Cycle: 3/2
CD/DPO: 38/12
Timing: -5, -4, -2, -1
Typical LP length: unsure
Testing: maybe Sunday or Monday. FF has AF predicted for Monday
R/R: another BFN this morning. I have my annual checkup scheduled with my midwives this afternoon. I'm also officially aboard the BSC train with SS. I woke up with heartburn just before midnight and had myself convinced that it was the beginning of symptoms. Plus any little twinge to the boobs or tummy. I seriously need to chill tf out.
Edited for autocorrect
CS/Q: very consistent temps over the last several days.
@bows22 So sorry about the BFN
. I hope you can still have a good day after that and the bad night of sleep.
Month/Cycle: 3/2
CD/DPO: 27/11
Timing: -3, -1, 0
Typical LP length: ??
Testing: Maybe tomorrow.
R/R: So sorry to post and run yesterday. I read through everyone's responses but couldn't respond before I passed out. I'll try to do better today but it's our freshman day, so it's a bit busy. Then a colleague and I are off to a conference. I made sure to pack a couple tests and AF supplies. Also coffee.
CS/Q: My temp rising is toying with my feelings. But the BFN at urgent care the other day is still keeping me in check.
@jrouge12 your chart looks great! have fun at your conference. Going anywhere good?
Good morning, ladies! Happy Friday!
Month/Cycle: 13/12/2nd cycle AL#2
CD/DPO: 27/9 (according to me and not FF)
Timing: good
Typical LP length: 12-14 days (without progesterone)
Testing: betas next week
R/R: I got some really disappointing news about our teacher salary yesterday afternoon which put me in a not-so-good mood. On top of that, I am 99.9% sure that a package was stolen out of my mailbox. I had a text confirming delivery but when I got home it wasn't there. Now I get to file a claim with the USPS, which will probably go nowhere because I don't have any evidence to prove someone took it. Oh well. At least it's Friday and I can sleep past 5am tomorrow!
CS/Q: Nah, we're good.
@jrouge12 that temp rise is so pretty! Hope your conferences is productive.
@gingermama29 so sorry about your BFN, too. I've been trying to stay off the SS train but it's so hard! Every little twinge gets to me, too.
@gingermama29 sorry for your BFN also. Hope the checkup goes well and your heartburn means something!
@jrouge12 hope your day goes well and passes by quickly! Your chart looks great!
@emeraldduchess I’m sorry for the salary news
Month/Cycle: 23/25
CD/DPO: 21/8 ish (10 post trigger)
Timing: great
Typical LP length: 14-15
Testing: not 100% sure yet
R/R: I tried to go to bed earlier than normal last night, and legit felt hungover this morning. I’m exhausted. Of course that made me hopeful but the stark white test this morning (I’ve been testing out the trigger) got that in check real quick. I’m just looking forward to the weekend even though I thought we had no plans and now we have plans every night 🙄🙄 I just want to chill and not have to talk to people for once- boo. Literally all I’ve done for work the past 2 weeks is sit in meetings. I’m tired of listening to people!
CS/Q: no
Month/Cycle: 1/1
CD/DPO: CD 27
Timing: 10, 12, 14, 16, 18
Typical LP length: idk
Testing: BFN again today
R/R: Period due this weekend. I have accepted it didn't happen for us this cycle. I'm down some crazy train hole of "I wonder if, if an egg fertilizes but doesn't implant because something is wrong with it or whatnot, you get ridiculously bad PMS...." because, seriously, I've had a load of symptoms - obviously of PMS at this point - and like...why? I never get it like this.
CS/Q: I'll have a chart next cycle.

@gingermama29 i'm sorry for your BFN too. I'm with you on the SS & I hate how it fecks with your head.
@jrouge12 I have everything, even my toes, crossed for your hopeful testing tomorrow
@emeraldduchess ugh teachers are not paid enough as it is...so I give the big ass middle finger to anything negative to do with your salary. I'm sorry
@b_1029 bleh to meetings and stark white tests.
Damn this is just a bleh day all around isn't it...

@bows22 ugh, I’m so sorry for the BFN.
@gingermama29 Sorry for your bfn.
@jrouge13 I hope the test from urgent care was just too soon. Fingers crossed for you!
@emeraldduchess All of that is infuriating. At least I hope USPS will resolve your claim. I’m so sorry.
@b_1029 I hate when I try to get more sleep and actually feel worse. Sucks. Sorry for the BFN, they are such a punch to the your whole dang soul.
Month/Cycle: 4/4 AL
CD/DPO: 20/8
Timing: -3,-2,-1,+1
Typical LP length: 12-13 lately
Testing: Not testing, WFAF
R/R: Hoping for a less cranky day today. I could feel my PMS lifting as the day went on which hopefully means the worst of it is over. Tomorrow I’m having friends over for board games, pizza and football. I’m so excited!
CS/Q:
Edit: added a spoiler
@gingermama29 so sorry about the BFN!!! I feel you on SS though - in every TWW my google history is like “8 dpo headache” 😂
@jrouge12 good luck at your conference! Hoping AF stays away!!!!
@emeraldduchess ughhh I would be so mad! That’s part of why we got a ring camera, packages get stolen all the time. Hopefully it just got delivered to a neighbor!!! I also think teachers salaries are obscenely low for the amount of work they do!!! It’s maddening!
@b_1029 I totally feel you on not wanting human interaction. Super same!!!! Please let me sit and cross stitch the entire weekend in peace! ❤️
@saladflambe so sorry AF is on her way!!! ❤️

CD/DPO: 23/9
Timing: Excellent
Typical LP length: 12-14
Testing: Nope
R/R: I’m pretty sure my LP is going to be another fairly short one - saw some slight spotting this morning. Feeling super out right now, just waiting for AF to arrive and confirm it.
We have tickets to see IT Chapter 2 tonight, so that should be fun! I have low carb movie snacks to smuggle in my purse! I also have a 5k this weekend that may defeat me (it’s a local hill/trail run that involves a 485 elevation) but guess I’ll see how that goes! At least I have distractions while I wait for AF.
CS/Q: Temps are still hanging out, I assume I’ll see a drop in a day or two.

Temping Questions ahead:
1. Do you temp during your period or wait til the bleeding stops to start?
2. If you wake up a zillion times to pee at night, at what point do you temp? Like, say my typical wake up for the day is 5am, but I wake up at 3am to pee, do I temp at 3 or wait til 5? What if I wake up at 4 to pee? Pee is a problem, folks lol

@saladflambe I’m sorry you are feeling out. I hope your killer PMS eases up soon!
@tyrion_ I’m glad your PMS seems to be easing up. Your chart looks amazing haha. I know it doesn’t necessarily mean anything but what a tease.
Edit clarity
@saladflambe thanks! It’s my first one so I’m hoping I do ok!

@bows22 - I'm so sorry about the BFN.
The least our bodies could do would be to give us some consistency so we know what to expect.
@gingermama29 - so sorry about the BFN! I hope your appt goes well.
@jrouge12 - really hope your chart means something! It looks good.
@emeraldduchess - so sorry about the salary news! At work I've been writing a lot in the last year or so about teachers going on strike in Oklahoma, Arizona, Colorado...so many places. It's infuriating how teacher salaries and school funding are always the first thing on the chopping block!
@b_1029 - I hope you get some time to yourself this weekend.
@saladflambe - so sorry for the BFN.
@tyrion_ - your weekend plans sound fun!
@mvt2003 - so sorry you're feeling out.
I hope the movie and 5K are good distractions!
Month/Cycle: 13/12
CD/DPO: 29/unsure
Timing: unsure
Typical LP length: 14
Testing: nope
R/R: Dr's appt is at 4pm so leaving work an hour early today...I don't really know what to expect from the initial appointment but hopefully it will at least be good to get an expert opinion on how to proceed. Other than that hoping to finish my book this evening and then start a new one this weekend.
CS/Q: nope
Month/Cycle: 3/3
CD/DPO: 1/0
Timing:
Typical LP length: 12-14 days
Testing: no
R/R: I'm stuck out of town for a work thing and so nothing fun is happening.
I came to post my CD 27/DPO 13 update and ask for strength to not test, ask for input on the nausea I've had, etc., but I got up to pee in the middle of typing this and... AF has come a few days early. I'm out.
TGIF.
@tyrion_ I think it’s probably from this cleanse / challenge thing I’m doing with my SIL. Day 3 without coffee or sugar and I’m struggling. Tomorrow sounds so fun, hope you guys have a great time!
@mvt2003 ugh sorry for the spotting. I’m sorry you’re feeling out, but hopefully the spotting is good this time?! Have fun at the movie tonight! Date night with YH? wow, that 5k sounds crazy. AND with no carbs?!!
@whitealbum29 I hope your appointment goes well today! What book are you reading?
@bows22 same for you!!!

@b_1029 Just popping in to say how much of a trooper you are. I know this ride has been a roller coaster. You're freakin' awesome for hanging on as well as you have. I just wanted you to know I think about you often and I'm rooting for you.
@gingermama29 Sorry I missed you this morning! So sorry about the BFN too!
Ah bell! I'll try to get back here soon!
@emeraldduchess sorry about the salary. It's so frustrating how underpaid teachers are. I hope your package was just accidentally delivered to the wrong address!
@b_1029 so sorry for the BFN. Way too many of those going around in this thread. FX for you still.
@saladflambe so sorry for another BFN. I suspect I'm gonna be out this cycle too. I was super irritated with DH this morning out of nowhere and suspect pms so I'm sure AF is around the corner too.
@tyrion_ friends, pizza, and football sound like the makings of a perfect weekend! Have fun!
@mvt2003 good luck with the 5k this weekend!
@whitealbum29 I hope everything goes well at your appointment today!!
