WAYDTGKU: BBT, OPKs, starting EOD
R/R: I had a long discussion with myself in the shower this morning about needing to shave my legs with FW starting, but I was tired/lazy. Spoiler alert: I did not shave my legs. Sorry H. We seem to be getting early hurricane bands already so I’m hoping today will be less busy than earlier in the week.

@fitzfizz did you forget your update too? 😂 TGIF!

WAYDTGKU: OPKs, Tracking CM
R/R: I took wondfos when I got home from work and before bed and they were very negative so I was thinking the CBDA may have been right but I took one this morning and it is darker so we will see. Ovulating on CD12 is going to make my period timing so inconvenient so hopefully Ill still see a surge. I have another long day of work ahead of me, complicated by the fact that the Invisible Fence people are coming to install. I know people probably have mixed feelings on these but we are only allowed to have a 4 foot fence in our borough and our dog can unexpectedly jump over baby gates that are that height so we feel like we need that in order to let him be able to run around and play outside. He has responded so well to training so I know he will catch on quickly and love it. I’m excited!
CS/Q:
@bows22 I have one dog that can jump 5 ft without a running start, so I totally feel that! I feel like a 4 ft fence is a really odd rule. You’d think they’d be cool with any height, so long as it keeps dogs in. 🤷🏻♀️ I never understand neighborhood rules.

WAYDTGKU: vitex prenatals, vitamin c and e, OPKs, BBT, CM, CP, HIO EOD
R/R: It’s that time of year in Wisco where we get all 4 seasons in one day. It’s currently 28 degrees with a high of 81. 🤣 I never know how to dress. I need a winter coat in the morning and a bathing suit come the afternoon. I’m just happy for sunshine! Heading to school today since my internet won’t hang. Got kicked off of every zoom yesterday. A bit frustrating, honestly.
CS/Q: Still very consistent, low temps. It’s quite satisfying.

WAYDTGKU: Clomid, ovidrel, IUI
R/R: So so so happy it’s Friday! This has felt like the longest week ever. DH is the best and got me surprise Starbucks this morning in case I woke up feeling yucky from my Clomid dose last night. I woke up feeling a little groggy and out of it, but the coffee made it 10x better. We are having dinner with my parents and my ILs tonight which should be fun! They haven’t seen each other in a long time but get along really well. I’m glad that they both know generally what’s going on in our lives so hopefully no one is expecting any sort of announcement when we are all together. We don’t have a whole lot of plans this weekend, so I think we are going to go to the farmers market tomorrow which will be fun!
CS/Q:
@bows22 4 ft fence is tiny. That means automatically you can't have certain breeds due to fence height, which I find crazy. Also, do you test every time you pee, and do you wait the suggested four hours?
@chindimples04 that sounds so frustrating about getting kicked off yesterday. Weather has been that way here too, I can't decide how to dress, either too cold in the morning or too hot in the afternoon.

WAYDTGKU: opk, bbt, cm/cp, PNV, AI, baby aspirin
R/R: today is the day! And I hate opks. CM and (possibly) bbt say today/yesterday if O but opks are super light.
CS/Q:
@chindimples04 ohhh your temps are satisfying!! that’s so annoying about your Zoom though. And yes we purposely didn’t buy a house in a development/planned community because we didn’t want to deal with an HOA and then our borough had dumb rules anyway. We did know the fence thing before we bought and I guess it’s actually kind of common around here. So dumb.
@chindimples04 Hope things go more smoothly with school & the technology! And I am not jealous at all of your weather chana. That kind of up and down/don’t know how to dress weather makes me crazy.🤪
@runningoncookies How sweet of YH! Surprise coffee is always a nice gesture. Enjoy dinner w the fam tonight!
Month/Cycle: 29/idk
CD: 12 & noooo sign of O
WAYDTGKU: Lots of stuff, but took a little breather from most of it the past couple weeks
R/R: Rant: Agree w @chindimples04: this has been the longest week ever! I’ve vague-posted a few times over the past several months about a legal issue with work. I burned the midnight oil every night this week working with our attorney to get some documents exactly right, then up at 5 am daily for work meetings/trainings. SO GLAD today was the last day of that schedule!!! Rave: I was too busy all week to even think about HIO, & it looks like I’m having a delayed O so yay for my body being weird this month!😆 I usually start to get positive OPKs around CD10, but they are suuuuper light & temp has been low low low so who knows when O is due? 🤷♀️ Hopefully the OPKs will start to darken just as I start to feel well-rested from this past week of work
CS/Q: Bo-ring
@runningoncookies Surprise Starbucks is the best Starbucks. Your husband sounds very considerate, I like him.
