    WAYDTGKU: BBT, tracking CF, using FF, OPKs, prenatals

    R/R: I'm excited for tonight! My best friend is going to be in town and is coming to spend the night. She used to only live an hour away but over the summer she moved in with her boyfriend and now lives 4 hours away. Thankfully it's a good situation and they're super happy together so while I don't love the distance, I'm really happy for them. Anyway, I'm super excited to see her tonight! Sunday, I'm meeting up with my sister and SIL and we're going to the fall festival in my hometown. It should be a good weekend!

    CS/Q: Continued frustration with this cycle. I need a HIO break. I'm exhausted.

    R/R: FX my appointment this AM goes well. I'm excited for the wedding this weekend so I'm going to do my best to keep any bad news out of my head. The wedding is about a hour from where we live and the hotel is a resort with an indoor water park. Hoping we can find a chance to actually use it! Even if it's just to chill in the lazy river (I think th

    CS/Q: I need to get better about remembering to temp. Woke up later than normal since I'm off of work today but I had already thrown the covers off me and had my leg out when I remembered I need to temp. No big deal though, temp was the same as yesterday

  • @gingermama29 my husband and I would call sex that we didn’t really want a business transaction 😂. I hope that you enjoy your weekend! 
    @inthewoods23 good luck this morning. Let us know how it goes. Do you have an alarm set to temp? I have one set for 5 every day. When I don’t have to actually wake up at 5, it is so easy for me to roll back over and go to sleep. 
    @feather_heather that is great boss you have. Sounds like a great start to the weekend!

    WAYDTGKU: pnv and bbt

    R/R:  nothing much is going on. I’ve been checking my cervical fluid just because I’ve been nervous about my husband being gone this weekend. It’s still pretty high and creamy so I think that I will be good until Sunday night. I’m also thinking about putting some moonshine in the freezer and enjoy a nice cold one tonight when my husband leaves. I have a busy weekend, but then I’m off again on Monday. I also hate that this app does not do a period when I double tap the space bar like I normally text. 

    CS/Q: nothing much going on atm

    R/R: it’s my second day off! Yesterday was lazier than I had liked so I’m going to try to be more productive after I get off here. But it’s pay day which makes me happy, hoping to start hio today maybe try to get a lil smep in but we will see. Going to try to take my first opk later today too.

    trying to get laundry folded and this is how the dogs feel, they’re lucky they’re cute.

    CS/Q: nothing much except for two dots now!


  • App is freaking out and not letting me add spoilers to pics so I’ll have to go on my computer to fix. Sorry!

    @gingermama29 yay I’m glad you have time with your friend planned!! Sounds so fun! & omg your cycle is being a tw! Props to you for keeping up hio!!

    @inthewoods23 hoping your appt goes well! And that you can enjoy yourself this weekend at the wedding. Lazy river sounds amazing!  I’m in the same boat as you with temping. I always fall asleep without setting an alarm on my days off.

    @feather_heather yay for cardiac clearance and that you are able to leave early for lion king!!! That’s awesome! 

    @blackgirlmagic I’m glad your O seems to be holding out for your H! And oh cold moonshine sounds so nice! Moonshine is usually so dangerously good.

  • @bows22 yep, officially a July due date! Yes...let’s all flood July!! ☺️

  • @gingermama29 Have fun tonight! It sounds like it will be a great way to blow off steam. Don't forget to take a BD break if you need it! 

    @inthewoods23 Let us know how the appointment goes. Fx crossed for you!

    @feather_heather Congrats on the clearance for IVF! Hopefully the insurance doesn't drag its feet.

    @blackgirlmagic Enjoy the moonshine! There is a great distillery where I live that has Apple Pie moonshine and it is divine. GL with timing!

    @bluetickgal Enjoy! It is so nice to have a plan and I am happy you are feeling good about things!

    @konoha Your dogs are adorable and terribly helpful :wink: ! Fx for your OPK/cycle!

    Month/Cycle: 34 for both

    CD: 1

    WAYDTGKU: Just had my first IVF appointment. Given that AF has shown, we were able to hammer out a drug schedule and tentative ER/transfer date. There is a kind of serenity in knowing what is going to happen and to just follow a plan.

    R/R: Nothing really. Just working on managing expectations with IVF cycle. Don't want to get my hopes up too high nor do I want to be pessimistic. We are able to try again at a lower cost if this cycle doesn't work, but if it does 'Hooray'.

  • Month/Cycle: 1/1

    CD: 10

    WAYDTGKU: PNV, temp, so far did it once 

    R/R: Work has been a bitch. I work in a nursing home and to make a long story short, some bitch made a petty and unfounded complaint about us and the dept of health came in. We figured it would be quick but then they were here two days so we were panicking a little but it’s all good. Just a lot of time I’d rather spend actually with my patients. 

    CS/Q: Nothing too interesting here yet. I forgot to temp this morning.
