DoubleUp8 · July 2020

Month/Cycle: 3/3

CD: 8

WAYDTGKU: HIO, CM/CP, Temping

R/R: I think Temping is going well. My firs three temps have been between 98.11 and 98.33, so I feel like that is pretty consistent? Hoping this consistency continues and I see a clear spike when the time is right.

CS/Q: CM questions, may be tmi:

This morning my CM has a brownish tint to it. I would almost call it spotting. Not sure if this is due to AF still lurking. I have been working out and watching my eating (cutting back on carbs a bit like swapping salad for a sandwich and apple for pretzels or crackers) this week trying to get back on track with healthy habits, so maybe that is connected? Hoping this doesn't mean this cycle is messed up. My temp has been consistent the past 3 days, within a 0.21 range, so I am hoping that means my body has time to get it together before O.

**lurking** @DoubleUp8 I think that is totally normal for CD8, just a tad of old leftover blood making its way out.

DoubleUp8 · July 2020

@legallykate Thank you. I know I need to chill and stop being paranoid about everything I do impacting our chances.

Good morning!!

@DoubleUp8 sometimes my WTO temps are all over the place, but once I ovulate my whole pattern shifts up, sometimes almost a whole degree. And sometimes it changes month to month! I'll have one where temps are pretty consistent and then a month where they're all over the place for who knows what rea3son. Looks like you're off to a good start!

Month/Cycle: 15/13

CD: 15

WAYDTGKU: opks, BBT, hio eod

R/R: H got a stomach bug yesterday so we're not going to HIO for the next few days bc he's so miserable. Hoping we got enough sessions in for this cycle. BUT he stayed on the couch last night (his choice bc he wasn't sure if he'd sleep at all/wanted to be close to the bathroom) so I had the bed ALL TO MYSELF last night. It was amazing, I slept so well. Maybe this is a FFFC, but when I watch shows set in the 50s and they have the separate beds I'm always a little bit jealous - I sleep so much better by myself.

CS/Q: I think I might be in TWW but waiting for cross hairs. Had a temp jump yesterday but today's was lower and in my usual WTO range (although this WTO was lower than usual).

@DoubleUp8 I had light brown tint through CD8. Totally normal!
@_orchid_ dang, sorry about H’s stomach bug! Hopefully timing was still good if you have O’d already!

Month/Cycle: 2/2

CD: 11

WAYDTGKU: BBT, OPKs, CM, CP, PNVs, HIO EOD or ED (can’t decide)

R/R: nothing good but nothing bad. Life is pretty neutral here right now.

CS/Q: WWYD: based on previous normal cycles, I is projected for Sunday. OPKs are still low. If O does happen on Sunday, today is -2 timing. We HIO’d last night. Do we go to ED timing or stick with EOD until I get a positive OPK? I really like that -2 timing. No swimmer issues that we know of.

gingermama29 · July 2020

@DoubleUp8 definitely sounds like old leftover blood from AF. Yay for consistent temps!

@_orchid_ I hope YH feels better! Sorry you'll miss a few days but hopefully your timing will be good enough!

Month/Cycle: 13/8

CD: 15

WAYDTGKU: benched until August

R/R: so sorry I ghosted yesterday. That was a hell of a migraine and it lasted most of the day.
*TW* LC

I ended up calling DH at work and begged him to come home because I couldn't function and take care of a toddler. He did and I was so grateful.

*End TW*
Anyway, migraine aside, our new fridge is awesome and I'm so excited about it! DH still needs to return the uhaul but otherwise the process was relatively smooth. No big plans today other than a quick walk down to the library to do curbside pick up of an art project to do and a few books.

CS/Q:

DoubleUp8 · July 2020

@_orchid_ Oh no about DH. I hope your timing was still good! I hear you about sharing the bed. I am good in the winter because I am always chilly and DH is toasty, but in the summer nope. Also, FCCC I can fall alseep cuddling. I like to cuddle, but then I roll away and get into my preferred sleep position and I can't have anyone draped across me when I'm falling alseep!

@chindimples04 I would say ED or EOD is fine, what ever works for you two. You could always try for Saturday morning and Sunday night to space it out at less than ED but more than EOD. Or just plan to have fun and see what your mood is!

@gingermama29 Glad you are feeling better and the new fridge is all set!

Thank you all for reassuring my paranoia! I do like the temping so far. It feels like there is a piece I have control of, and for a detail oriented planner like me, that has helped lower my stress. Not sure if it will help during the TWW, but we'll see.

optimisticoctopus · July 2020

@DoubleUp8 your temps def sound consistent! I have been having more up and down temps the past couple of cycles, but then still get a clear temp spike when I O. So don’t worry if it goes a little rocky at times! Also, that CM sounds completely normal!

@_orchid_ hopefully YH feels better and your timing was still spot on!

@chindimples04 I think either ED or EOD would work perfectly! Whatever feels best for you guys!

@gingermama29 glad you’re feeling better and the new fridge is great!

Month/Cycle: 8/8

CD: 14

WAYDTGKU: temping, tracking CM, OPKs, PNV, baby aspirin, progesterone after O

R/R: Happy Friday!! I’m spending the weekend at the beach which is absolutely beautiful right now. And supposed to be good weather tomorrow too! Also I finally stopped spotting from the hysteroscopy! Somehow BDing this morning did the trick. Good day all around!

@runningoncookies you are winning at life today!! Enjoy the beach weekend and hopefully no more spotting!!

_orchid_ · July 2020

@gingermama29 glad you are feeling better today! I find when I get migraines I have like an hour window at the beginning to stop it or else I end up with it for the rest of the day. Hope you had a nice day and got some good stuff from the library!
