Month/Cycle: 2/2
CD/DPO: 26/8
Timing: -4, -2, O
Typical LP length: 10 based on my only month of date.... looks like O happed a couple days earlier this month so we’ll see.
Testing: I’m 3 days away from predicted AF and just couldn’t help myself this morning 🤦🏽♀️ BFN
R/R: Boss told me yesterday that he wants me to do an Azure basics training course. I was pretty excited because I’m a contractor so the company investing him my growth is always nice and indicates they might hire me permanent. I was even more excited after reading the email he forwarded me that said the company would also pay for the certification exam. This is decent momentum on my New Years resolution to continue to focus on career growth.
CS/Q: none. Chart is ugly due to not temping regularly enough and having to rely only on OPK for O prediction.
