Re: TWW Friday 10/11

  • I’m moving over here now, but I should have confirmation tomorrow. 

    Month/Cycle: 1/1

    CD/DPO: 16/2

    Timing: -3, -2, -1, 0, +1 

    Typical LP length: not sure yet

    Testing: most likely wfaf, unless my temps show something different 

    R/R: I was starting to get over having so much sex, so I’m happy that that is over and we can go back to our normal routine. Also, I thought that it was weird that I only had one truly perfect cm day, but ff was/is saying that I still possibly fertile. And it’s Friday!!!

  • @whitealbum29 Thanksgiving is super late! Everyone I spoken to about it agrees. I’m glad that you caught that before you bought the tickets! 

    I also feel like if it doesn’t work this cycle, then nature truly has a cruel sense of humor. I know there is only a 20% chance each month, but dang! 

    @kpearse99 I hope this weekend flys by so that Monday is here for your beta!! And enjoy your alone time. I value my alone time so much now a days. I hope that when you have the SA that you can get some answers.

  • @whitealbum29 I agree it's super late this year! I swore Thanksgiving was always supposed to be the 3rd Thursday in November... did that change somewhere?!?! I'm sorry that you feel AF is pending, although I'm still holding onto hope for you that she's not. It's so so hard to be trying for this long with nothing to really show for it. I hope YH gets his SA done soon.  I should know this, but did you do any other testing yet?

    R/R: Well today I’m feeling much better and I think my cold is on the upswing finally.yay. I don’t feel perfect but I’ll take the little improvement today 😁 Another Beautiful but chilly day here. Least it’s a long weekend and I’ll be off work till next weds for Canadian Thanksgiving. Yay! DH and I will be going to his parents house on Monday for thanksgiving. My MIL always makes wayyy too much food lol. Turkey, ham, roast beef, stuffing, veggies, potatoes, salad, tons of desserts etc. 🍗🥗🧁🥧🍷I will have to be rolled out to the car when we leave haha 😆 looking forward to relaxing this weekend and sleeping in and enjoying time with family. I love seeing my SIL and BIL. Been having some slight cramps this morning so I’m either KU or going to get AF coming soon. I’m leaning towards AF. ☹️ Also, I have been having the craziest most wild dreams ever. Like they seem sooo real and I can like feel the softness of peoples shirts in my dreams. 

    CS/Q: None

    @kpearse99 I Hope your hubby has fun in his golf tournament this weekend. Enjoy your quiet alone time on Saturday night 👍 that’s always nice. 

    @blackgirlmagic welcome to TWW. Happy Friday 😁 Great timing you have 😉 FX for you this cycle. 

    @whitealbum29 wow your thanksgiving is Nov 28th? Wow that is so late. I never understood why the states has theirs in Nov. seems too close to Christmas for me and too busy. I like ours being in Oct in Canada. You get the couple month break in between of turkey lol. Sorry you were getting weepy last night about your cycle. *hugs* ❤️ Hang in there girl. It can be tough. Where you headed on the plane?

    @mindyb2019 That is SO much food!!! But it all sounds amazing!! I'm so happy you are finally feeling better! Vivid dreams can be an early pregnancy symptom - so you could be KU!! I'll keep my FX for you!
    I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving and a great long weekend - hopefully it brings you some wonderful news!!

    ETA - I'm not really sure why we celebrate Thanksgiving in November. The first thanksgiving, celebrated by the pilgrims, was in October... Somehow it got moved to the 4th Thursday (not the 3rd Thursday... duh self!) in November.

  •  Month/Cycle: 4/2

    CD/DPO: 39/11

    Timing: -2,-1,0

    Typical LP length: unknown 

    Testing: since like 8 dpo. Oops! 🤫

    R/R: AF is definitely on her way. I’m not spotting yet but I have all the symptoms. I’m sure it will start Monday. It’s hard when you do everything right to not feel like maybe something is wrong with you that keeps it from happening. At least today I’m off and going kayaking with friends. 

    ******tw****** a close friend of mine just told me she’s pregnant. She wasn’t even trying and is super upset about it and came to me for support yesterday. I’m like really? I’m sitting here cramping waiti for my period after another unsuccessful month and you get accident you pregnant in the one weekend every other month your boyfriend visits?  End tw********

    CS/Q: none. 
    @kpearse99: your temps are back up still! Fingers crossed so hard for you. 
    @blackgirlmagic: I’m always like honey I love you but I can’t handle another week of this lol. After that first cycle when the excitement wears off it’s no longer fun lol. 
    @whitealbum29 sorry That this cycle is hitting you hard. Some are worse than others. 
  • @kpearse99 ya it’s a crazy amount of food. I eat sooo much and feel so full and sleepy, aww thanks. I hope you have a great weekend too. I hope it does bring some good news but I’m not counting on it. I don’t like to get my hopes up so that I’m not terribly disappointed. I guess in due time I will see. 
  • @beckylookatherbump ugh that's probably one of the harder hits for a TW that you just went through. I'm so sorry you were blindsided by your friend. It sucks so so much that some people get KU by blinking, and they weren't even planning on a child... and here we are, trying for months and months and even years - feeling broken and damaged. Sigh.  Thankfully you are still pretty early on in the TTC game, so there's still so much hope for you! Hang in there - and at the same time allow yourself to feel however you want/need to feel.  You are entitled to your feelings.

  • @kpearse99 I know right. Sooo quiet. I was going to say the same thing lol. Where the heck is everyone? Haha 
  • @kpearse99 - I know, it's absurd! I'm so glad I'm obsessive about triple checking everything before finalizing while booking plane tickets - the fact that they're non refundable freaks me out so much! I just had some blood work done earlier this year at like the 7-8 month mark - progesterone, estradiol and FSH and they were all fine, so I'm having him do the SA before I do anything else!
    @mindyb2019 - I hope your crazy dreams and the fact that you don't feel 100% still are both good signs! Happy Thanksgiving! Yeah ours is the 4th Thursday of November so super late this year b/c of how the weeks fall...I read that Abraham Lincoln moved ours to November and then in the 1940s there was some debate about if it should the 3rd or 4th Thursday and they went with 4th. I don't know why they ever moved it from October tho! We are going to Chicago this year where two of my brothers live. Have fun with your family!
    @beckylookatherbump - so sorry you're also feeling like AF is on her way. And sorry you had to hear a hard announcement! I seriously don't understand how people get accidentally pregnant, like are you kidding me?? What are they, magicians???
  • @whitealbum29 thanks 😁 I will enjoy my time with my family. I sure hope my crazy dreams are a good sign. I don’t think so as I feel I’m out this cycle but you never know. Time will tell. Ya having thanksgiving later in Nov is kind of dumb I think. Sorry but everybody everywhere should be oct lol. Cool Chicago. That will be exciting. I hope you guys have a fun time when you go 👍 

    @beckylookatherbump so sorry about your friends announcement. That’s tough to hear when people just get pregnant by mistake. Makes me sooo mad and frustrated. *Hugs* ❤️ 
  • @kpearse99 @whitealbum29 and @mindyb2019 thank you all. I’m so glad I have you ladies. Also I think everyone has left us for the wto board. I however was kayaking today and my friend said it’s a short trip, well ) hours later that was a lie and I am exhausted lol.
