Re: TWW Weekend of 8.1-8.2

  • Month/Cycle: 2/2

    CD/DPO: CD26/7dpo

    Timing: -5, -3, -2, -1, O

    Typical LP length: 11-14

    Testing: Monday, if I can hold off long enough. I ordered wofondo early result strips that will be here today, so may test tomorrow morning just because I have them. 🤣

    R/R: We made a down payment and schedule the install of our new flooring! I am so excited. However, the 50% down was what I was hoping the whole project would cost, so we have some more saving to do. But the new flooring will drastically increase the value of our house, so it will be worth it! I’m going art shopping with my mom today to find something’s for our big, empty living room wall. DH is also getting done with work pretty early today (11 am ish) so I’m super excited about that. ❤️ No real rant, I guess!

    CS/Q: chart looks good, I feel! 


    GTKY: What do you spend too much time doing?

    Scrolling through Facebook/Instagram. I totally have a problem but I can’t stop!

  • Month/Cycle: 3/3
    DPO: 13 days post IUI
    Timing: -3, IUI, +1, +2, +4, +5
    Typical LP: 10-14
    Testing: Thursday (because of HCG shots)
    R/R: Rant? I guess all the hormones I'm on are making me super uncomfortable. Also stressed because I go back to work as a teacher next week and I don't feel like my district is really protecting us.
    CS/Q: Not sure what this means
    GTKY: Napping and peeing. Stupid hormones.

    @mamasnek Welcome to the group! If you haven’t already, please introduce yourself in the Newbie Intros thread. You should also check out the https://forums.thebump.com/discussion/12685680/the-ultimate-ttgp-guide-newbies-read-this-first#latest. Among the group's rules, it lists all (well, most) of the acronyms that get used in this group. (CS/Q means Chart Stalk / Questions). It's also a good idea to lurk in the various threads to see how / what we post and talk about. This is seriously the most organized internet group I've ever come across, so there's a lot of value in checking out the rules, and lurking to get to know the lay of the land. In return, you'll find one of the most accepting and supporting group of women here for you on your TTC journey. Good luck! Hopefully your stay here will be short.

    @chindimples04 your chart looks great! Congrats on choosing the flooring, though of course too bad about the price. But it's great that you're looking at it from a future value perspective! That's a smart financial decision.

  • @acleverusername I did have a temp dip today, not below cover line but below 98 which I didn’t have last cycle. Makes my cautious optimistic! I schedule the appointment for the flooring yesterday for mid September! So excited!

  • I introduced myself in infertility a few weeks ago. Do I have to do it again? I got t that it was chart stalking. But I don't have a chart?
  • @mamasnek welcome! If you don’t have a chart, no need to post! Not everyone charts or shares their chart. :-) I personally don’t check the IF thread as it is not something that I am experiencing, so introducing in the general newbie thread would help people like me get to know you better! :-)
