Re: TWW Friday 11/1
Month/Cycle: 1/1
CD/DPO: 24/8
Timing: -4, -2, -1, +1
Typical LP length: not sure
Testing: Sunday, I think
R/R: After WWIII on my town’s FB page with people arguing for/against moving trick or treating due to predicted rain, it ended up being a great night last night. Still have a ton of candy leftover, but I’m ok with that!
CS/Q:
CD/DPO: 42/11
Timing: -4, -1, O
Typical LP length: no idea
Testing: WFAF or maybe Monday
R/R: we also had a decent crowd @kmalls although my old place used to have 500 trick or treaters and where we live now gets like 70.
Month/Cycle: 18/11/2(AL#2)
CD/DPO: 33/16
Timing: Not good enough.
Typical LP length: 14-16
Testing: BFN this morning!
R/R: Rave - It’s Friday!! Can’t wait for the weekend! Needed to get the positive out first...Rant - I HATE progesterone! After my temp/RHR went up this morning, I was super hopeful for a positive. But, apparently the progesterone was just tricking my body! I had already taken it this morning before I tested, but that’ll be the last time this cycle so hopefully AF will show soon! I just need to sulk for a bit, and then I’ll be ready to try again next cycle...but I won’t let myself get too excited until I see a positive, no matter what my chart looks like! I did learn that the progesterone does what it’s supposed to though, which is great! I just can’t let it fool me the next time around! Sorry for being a Debbie Downer!!
CS/Q: None.
@kmalls so glad everything worked out with the trick or treating! Our town didn’t move it either, even though a lot of the surrounding towns did, and it turned out ok! We sat inside (we normally sit out with the neighbors but it was way too cold & windy for that) and we had quite a few come by...they all got several pieces of candy but we still have a ton left too! Wow, what a lovely temp spike! Fingers crossed for you!
@pocketrose 500 trick or treaters, that’s crazy!! I bet that was fun though, no lulls I’m guessing! Have fun with the 3 parties tonight!! And good luck testing if you decide to on Monday!!
Month/Cycle: 13/11/1 (AL #2)
CD/DPO: 18/4 dpiui
Timing: -4, -3, IUI +PM
Typical LP length: 14 with the meds
Testing: Betas on lucky 11/11!
R/R: We had some craaaaazy winds and heavy rain last night! I ended up even having a vivid dream about damage that the winds did (thankfully no damage IRL though!) but I'm still thinking about that dream.
Rave: I have a girls night out tonight with 2 of my dearest friends! We are going to a wood workshop place and making our own wooden projects. I've been wanting to go for a while now so I'm really excited we finally made it happen! We will be honoring our dear friend who was killed by a drunk driver 5 years ago at midnight on Halloween.
Rant: 2 of our other friends was supposed to go but they bailed last minute. I'm not upset about the bailing, I'm angry about the fact that if I didn't ask them last night if they booked their spot then they probably wouldn't have told me...
CS/Q: nope!
@kmalls same here with all of the complaining and then it ending up being a perfect night! It was 73 degrees while we were out!
@pocketrose 3 parties?! Dang girl! Party it up and enjoy it all and then I hope you get to sleep in tomorrow! I live on a main/busy-ish street so we typically only get like 10-20 trick-or-treaters. I can't imagine 500 but it would probably be awesome!
Damn @bluetickgal

Happy effing Friday!
Month/Cycle: 8/8
CD/DPO: 22/7
Timing: Good—EOD during FW
Typical LP length: 14ish
Testing: I’ll probably start on Sunday, even though that’s still pretty early, because I don’t have self-control 🙃
R/R: I avoided Halloween sadness yesterday (I wrote about this in the holiday support thread a few weeks ago I think) by just staying at work late. Then I came home, had a glass of wine with MH, put on Nightmare Before Christmas, and went to sleep. It was a good day.
CS/Q: No ma’am.
@kmalls I’m glad your Halloween worked out despite the weather!
@pocketrose Good luck with your parties! That level of social interaction on a Friday night sounds exhausting to me haha
@bluetickgal I’m so sorry for the BFN and the mixed signals. As if this road isn’t hard enough as it is...

I imagine it will be exhausting @ssbl but I'm a textbook extrovert/ENFP so I'm pretty pumped!
@bluetickgal sorry about the BFN.
@kpearse99 I hope you have a wonderful girls night out! That sounds fantastic.
@ssbl I'm glad you were able to have a nice Halloween despite it being a triggering holiday.
Month/Cycle: 3/2
CD/DPO: 28/15
Timing: -2, +1
Typical LP length: 12
Testing: BFN
R/R: My rave is that my luteal phase seems to have lengthened a bit this cycle. And so far no spotting! At this point I'm ready for my period to start so I can move on.

@bluetickgal ugh I’m so sorry for the bfn, and doubly sorry your chart looked so promising. TTC is such a damn mindf***k.
@kpearse99 that’s super annoying about the friends that bailed (the probably weren’t going to tell you part). Is it that hard to send a text? But that’s awesome you get a girls night out tonight, hanging with old friends is the absolute best.
@ssbl +1 to no self control. Should I test tomorrow? Absolutely not. Will I test tomorrow? More than likely
@NamelessAria so sorry about the BFN. Glad you’re ready to move on.
Month/Cycle: 5/4

R/R: We had a nice afternoon, we went out with our friends for a while and then did our dinner, everyone was tired from work so it was a pretty early night. Now on to my favorite time of year! I LOVE the thanksgiving/christmas season. Our tree will probably go up mid november so I can enjoy it as long as possible. I do the music and everything. Its the best!
CS/Q: Temp fell to coverline today, so im expecting Af today sometime. (hopefully this posts, im on desktop atm)
@pocketrose 500 trick or treaters sounds insane!! I dont think id even want to hand out candy to that many! Enjoy your parties, miss popular!
@bluetickgal Im so sorry for the BFN, that sounds like a mindfu*k. *Hugs* At least the progesterone is doing its job. FX for you for next cycle!
@kpearse99 Sounds like a stress dream to me! The worst! Thank goodness there was no real damage though. I hope you have a good afternoon with your friends. I would be frustrated at those 2 as well. Flaky people annoy me so bad.
@ssbl That sounds like a wonderful halloween afternoon. I hope you had a good time!
@namelessaria same girl.

@photographerwife thanks friend! Ugh, so sorry for the temp drop! Hope all of us that don’t make it to July can make it to August! I love decorating our tree with Christmas music playing! We wait until just after Thanksgiving...but I say you do you and enjoy that tree as early as you want! ☺️
