Re: TWW Friday 6/5
Month/Cycle: 6/6
CD/DPO: 24/7
Timing: -5, -3, -1, O, +1
Typical LP length: 9-10 but on progesterone
Testing: Holding out until Tuesday (11dpo) if AF doesn't show before then.
R/R: Soooo happy it is Friday. We are going to do drive thru burgers tonight. That's about all we have planned for the weekend other than my plan to not work at all on Sunday. We decided things seem stable enough with my job to have this company come out and give us a quote to install turf in our yard (which I've been wanting to do forever) so I am looking forward to that but it probably won't be until next week.
CS/Q: WTF is this nonsense. Feeling crampy today too. If I have a 6-7 day LP on progesterone I am returning my ovaries.

@bows22 - I hope AF can wait until Sunday for you!!! That's the last "present" you need tomorrow. Let me know if you make those martinis!!! I'll be whipping a couple up over here
Month/Cycle: 1/1
CD/DPO: 36/11
Timing: good
Typical LP length: 13
Testing: BFN yesterday, will test again tomorrow morning if no AF by then
R/R: PMS has me breaking out, ravenous, and exhausted. Not good. But looking forward to socially distanced dinner w friend and her H tonight, and MH's birthday tomorrow.
CS/Q: I've been using the Ovia app for the last several months and it seems to think AF was due yesterday, which is bizarre since my typical LP length is 13 days. May need to switch to FF like most of you use.

@bows22 sorry about your BFN. AF on birthdays should be impossible. Definitely have a few drinks! Do you have ingredients for mimosas??
@priyadoc have so much fun with your friends tonight and YH birthday tomorrow! Martinis sound delicious.
Month/Cycle: 13/11
CD/DPO: 24/10
Timing: great
Typical LP length: 12-14
Testing: BFN yesterday and with today's temp drop I'm thinking AF is on her way. It usually drops 2 days before AF.
R/R: hi! I haven't been around the past few days bc I have been having a hard time - I got some devastating news about a student Tuesday night and haven't been able to really focus on anything. The staff of my school has been doing a lot of zoom time together to talk about the student but it's not the same as being together. I'm zooming with a group of friends tonight bc I told them I need that hang out time, and I'm hoping I'm able to function a bit better after this weekend.

@_orchid_ Thank you!! I'm so sorry for what you're going through with your student. I'm glad you were able to reach out to your friends for some time. I know Zoom with your other students and your friends isn't the same as seeing people in person, but I hope it's still helpful
@bows22 I am thinking about going out for stuff for mimosas for myself this weekend. Pretty sure I'll be back in WTO by Monday so that might be a good way to transition over. Where are you planning to go in October?
@legallykate Hope your burgers are delicious! I also hope that the temp is a drastic indicator of implantation, FX!🤞🏽
@bows22 I remember the "period on my birthday waaaaah" peggy. I hope & pray that is NOT the case for you! HAPPY BIRTHDAY tomorrow!!🎉🎁🎊🎈🍰❤️
@priyadoc Enjoy the socially distanced dinner--sounds fun. And enjoy the bday drinks for DH's bday! I hope your symptoms are not in fact PMS...
@_orchid_ I am so sorry about your student. Anything bad happening to students is just devastating. I hope your friends on Zoom can comfort & cheer you up. Sending you hugs!💓
AFM, I'm just hanging out here in limbo until AF shows, will move to WTO whenever CD1 appears.
Month/Cycle: 25
CD/DPO: 28/15
Timing: Shoulda been good enough🤷♀️
Typical LP length: 10-13
Testing: BFNs for days...
R/R: Rant: Feeling quite irritated & itchy the past few days, having a mild allergic reaction to something lately. Annoying! Rave is that I have been doing really well on the gluten-dairy-sugar-free diet and feeling healthier overall, so that is something to celebrate.
CS/Q: WTF, why is my temp staying steady after stopping progesterone 4 days ago?! I’m ready for it to drop already.
