Re: WTO Monday 8.24
Month/Cycle: 4/4
CD: 1
WAYDTGKU: OPK (first cycle, so I may have questions), HIO EOD if we can manage,
R/R: AF showed up with a vengeance today, not surprised as our timing wasn't great and last cycle was wacky AF/spotting on and off for the first 15 days. I have a follow up with the OB/GYN next week on my wacky cycle last cycle, but since AF started in a more usual fashion for me than last cycle, hopefully it was just a fluke.
CS/Q: The data nerd in me was really impressed by the corresponding temp drop and how noticeable it was on the graph. Weird thing to geek out over, but it's fascinating. Also, makes me feel like my first cycle temping, while not resulting in success, taught me a lot about temping and was a great start.

@doubleup8 sorry for AF, but it seems like this cycle will be exciting for you (as a data nerd) since you've got the temping under your belt and are starting the OPKS
Month/Cycle: 8 AL
CD: 9
WAYDTGKU: PNV, BBT, OPK, etc
R/R: it feels good to be posting today. i have been totally out of the TTC mindset lately. i find myself very stressed about this, job searching, finances and overall health. DH thinks that i need to be kinder to myself in this process, so thats what im trying to do this cycle. i havent been crazy about temping, and i guess ill start OPKs this week at some point. just giving myself a little break from obsessing over everything. in non TTC news, we have to cancel our Hawaii trip because they cancelled the pretravel testing program for visitors. and thats fine. we will probably still take the time off and go somewhere a little easier--maybe my IL's beach house in florida and just stay there with minimal contact with outside world.
CS/Q: posted this in TTCAL, but second progesterone level came back at 1.5 at CD9. doc said CD7 (4.38 reading) was def not mid cycle (which i figured) so we caught it on downswing but she feels confident it peaked higher. doesnt think testing again next month is necessary, and DH and i decided to just go with that instead of forcing the issue for now. but we have agreed that if by November we are still in this TTC boat, that we will proceed with more testing.
Month/Cycle: 3/3
CD: 7
WAYDTGKU: temping, charring, OPKs
R/R: I have been in denial about school starting back up, but this week I need to snap out of it. I have a bunch of summer work to grade and prep work to do, so I’m hoping to get started on that this week.
CS/Q: nothing to see yet
@fameonmain2 yes, I was surprised by the drop. When I started temping I was all over the map. Who knows what tomorrow will bring.

@DoubleUp8 Sorry about AF
@asf0613 Sorry about your trip! I'm glad you'll still be able to do something more local. It sounds like a relaxing time at the beach house will be a great break for you, though.
@fameonmain2 Good luck getting that schoolwork started!
Month/Cycle: 5/3
CD: 12
WAYDTGKU: Mira, OPKs, PNV and others, HIO EOD
R/R: It's only Monday morning and I'm already overwhelmed by work. Looking forward to having a 3 day break for Labor Day! Can't go anywhere though, since MH will be working. Otherwise just waiting for my OB-GYN appointment this Thursday to discuss wacky cycles and starting testing.
CS/Q: none. Based on previous cycles I may O in a couple weeks or not at all
@priyadoc hopefully you have a good appointment on thursday!
