Re: TWW Thursday 3/12
Month/Cycle: 15/17 including 2 benched
CD/DPO: 25/11
Timing: -3, -1, O, +1
Typical LP length: 12-13
Testing: BFN today, I’ll test tomorrow but that thing was stark stark white
R/R: I usually can muster up a silver lining, for example I could still be pregnant on our Disney trip but only barely so I probably wouldn’t have morning sickness, but I don’t think our trip is going to happen. I have zero fear of going, but with all the extreme measures being taken to prevent the spread of coronavirus, it seems like it’s only a matter of time before air travel is restricted and/or the parks close. Which I totally respect. I know there are much much bigger problems in the world but I’m going to be self-centered today and have a pity party for myself. 😞
CS/Q:
@bows22 Sorry for the BFN and about the Disney trip. Be kind to yourself today
Is there anything else you can plan that will be something to look forward to?
Month/Cycle: 3/3
CD/DPO: 20/3
Timing: -5, -3, -1, O
Typical LP length: 9-10
Testing: Not until 3/18
R/R: I did not sleep well last night. Between Trump's speech and Tom Hanks and the NBA, everything is getting really scary, and having CNN on in the background when I went to sleep was probably not a wise choice. I think I need to start watching Disney movies or something.
CS/Q: No CHs yet. I think FF is confused by my high temps early in the cycle (based on some Googling). There are three high temps after 6 low temps though so come on FF. I know in the grand scheme of things it doesn't really matter what my chart looks like or what FF says but I like the sense of order it brings.
Me: 37, MH: 38; Married August 2017
TTC #1 October 2017: BFP on 12/1/2017, DD born 7/24/2018 @ 37+1 after induction due to preeclampsia
TTC #2 January 2020: AMA, dx with DOR in May 2020
IVF July 2020: 16 eggs retrieved, 14 mature, 12 fertilized, 3 blasts, 2 PGT-A normal
FET 10/7/20: BFP on 10/12/20!!! (EDD 6/25/21); First beta 10/16/20 (9dpt): 148; Second beta 10/19/20 (12dpt): 621; Third beta 10/26/20 (19dpt): 4732; Fourth (and final!) beta 11/2/20 (26 dpt): 22,000+
CD/DPO: 25/3
Timing: -4, -2, -1, +1
Typical LP length: 12ish
Testing: holding out for a while
R/R: I have meetings allll day today, which means I won’t get to provide therapy to any of my kiddos at school. Sometimes these full days of meetings are okay, but other days I just feel like I could/should be doing so much more during my time at work. And seeing my kids would actually be useful, whereas I’m not necessarily needed in these meetings. Oh well! My district is also starting to put together a plan for if the need arises for us to close for coronavirus. This has all gotten so crazy!
CS/Q: Got my CH’s today! My chart for this cycle is so much easier to read than last cycle, which makes me happy.
CD/DPO: 30/13
Timing: Pretty good.
Typical LP length: 15-16 (doesn’t matter with progesterone).
Testing: Shooting for 15DPO to stop progesterone if necessary.
R/R: Happy day before Friday!! This week has been going somewhat slow, but tomorrow is Friday...so we have almost made it to the weekend! All the Coronavirus stuff is a bit scary...it’s become so widespread now! Hope we can all stay healthy!! I’ve got a lovely headache this morning, so I’m hoping that goes away soon!! Also, November...
Month/Cycle: 8/8
CD/DPO: 26/11
Timing: okay
Typical LP length: 11-13
Testing: AF is coming tomorrow
R/R:. Time change is just kicking my butt this week. My mom is coming for the weekend and that means a bunch more early mornings. She does not sleep in. I have Monday off, but a bunch of appointments. Just trying to make it to going home time and PJs. Also probably wine- normally don't drink but AF can get a girl down!
@bows22. Sending tons of love today! Hoping tomorrow looks better for you! When is your trip to Disney? I know a lot of places are trying to balance the business and the health concerns. Maybe they will stay open and it will be smaller crowds.
@legallykate My MIL watches the 6 hour Pride and Prejudice every night while falling asleep. She is literally asleep before the opening credits finish every night. Much better than the news!
@bluetickgal and @runningoncookies All this virus excitement is a bit scary. Hopefully it will calm down soon. My MIL texted me about making sure we have enough food for a couple weeks. My sister has stockpiled an insane amount of food.
@dobiemom11 ugh, my mom is the same! She is also the complete opposite of me in that she can never sit still.... she’s always doing something.... while I just enjoy my chill time more.
@runningoncookies my company is actually starting to think about a plan too! That’s how you know it’s bad. We plan for nothing. Things are getting crazy but I like plans. Yay for CHs!
@bluetickgal thanks friend! I know, since I’m not temping I don’t technically know when I ovulated so part of me is like...maybe I’m only 10 dpo? But the other part of me knows that I couldn’t even squint enough to see a line so I doubt I’ll get a different result tomorrow. But I hope I do! I agree this coronavirus stuff is nuts. I think since they couldn’t really name patients it seemed so abstract but now that they are announcing celebrities getting it, it’s a bigger reminder that anyone could get it.
Month/Cycle: 5/4
CD/DPO: 29/10
Timing: -5, -1(x2)
Typical LP length: 10-15, guessing 11-12 this cycle
Testing: Saturday!
R/R: I was not hopeful on like Wednesday, but now I am weirded out by my lack of AF symptoms because she’s supposed to be here by Sunday and I normally have sore boobs by now. Of course as soon as I start to get hopeful, that B will probably show up. 😒
CS/Q: not temping in TWW
TW
CD/DPO: 33/15
Timing: -2
Typical LP length: still regulating
Testing: BFN today all faint lines vanished did both FRER and wondfo but real white. WFAF I guess
R/R: I don’t know how to feel. I feel crazy as if I made up the lines but I went and looked at them and I can definitely see them. I’m angry I made the first appointment yesterday and have to call back today.

R/R: I’m tired today. I had a crazy nightmare last night about the Stupid coronavirus. It was horrible. It was soo scary and gross etc. It really creeped me out and woke me up at 12:30 am and I couldn't go back to sleep for a bit. It’s seriously getting to the point of I’m dreaming about it 😂 wtf? On another note, I have no idea why but my skin has been breaking out with pimples everywher so bad lately. My skin is never like this. I’ve always had good skin and it’s rare when I break out. As soon as one pimple goes away another shows up etc etc. It’s frustrating and I feel like I’m 15 again 😆 I hope it clears up soon cause I feel gross and ugly.
@bluetickgal yay to the November Hype girl. ya this coronavirus stuff is getting a bit scary. I hope we all stay safe and healthy.
@runningoncookies yay for CH’s. I hope your meetings go well and go by quickly today. Sucks when you have them alll day. Sorry you don’t get time to see your kiddos.

@mindyb2019 girl, I feel your pain with the acne. But I am kind of used to it. I was lucky as a teen and pretty much never had any, but once I went to college it started and never left! It’s been 12 years now and it’s the bane of my existence. So sorry about your scary dream! I hope you get more sleep tonight and that acne goes away for you!
@krystrist2014. Fingers crossed.
@allthingscozy. Sending love to you! You are amazing!
