  • Month/Cycle: 5/5

    CD: 14

    WAYDTGKU: BBT, OPKs

    R/R: DHs car is dying so I’m off to go look for a new car today. I really loved not having a car payment but I’m looking forward to a new, safe car. His current car has had the cruise get stuck at 70 mph going down the interstate (couldnt get the car to stop at all), has no power steering anymore, and is constantly leaking fluid. It’s a hot mess and I never feel safe driving it.

    CS/Q: another interesting temp spike today thats corresponding with HIO the night before. 🧐

    GTKY: What would your “last meal” be? No dietary restrictions, just the best things you could possibly eat:   A full course Italian meal would be my choice!! Yummm salivating thinking of it.

    @chindimples04  Holy cow, that car sounds like a death trap! Hope you guys find a good one today with a reasonably monthly payment. 

    @canucklehead123 Boooo to the snow, but yeaaah to the Zara gift card! Enjoy your shopping😊

    Month/Cycle: 29/idk

    CD: 19

    WAYDTGKU: Lots of extras

    R/R: Rant: I was too tired to HIO last night—fell asleep waaaay early & DH couldn’t wake me up. I’d been having more ovulation-like cramps yesterday afternoon so we really should’ve gone for it because I don’t know if yesterday was O or the day before. And my temp dropped this morning, which doesn’t happen to me right after O, so that isn’t telling me anything. 🤷‍♀️ Rave: I got 11 hours of sleep!!! I think today will be a good day haha. 

    CS/Q: The temp drop today is going to delay my crosshairs by a couple days...


    GTKY: What would your “last meal” be? No dietary restrictions, just the best things you could possibly eat. Hmmm, lobster with lots of butter, probably some raw oysters, maybe grilled scallops & shrimp, maybe steamed mussels & clams in a delicious broth with a baguette. But just a couple bites of each because just thinking about all that food is making me feel gluttonous & nauseous!

  • @chindimples04 good luck searching for a car. Not being able to break while going 70mph is def a good reason for a new car lol!

    @canucklehead123 I love when I find old gift cards that still have money on them. Get something good!

    @keikilove so jealous of your 11 hours of sleep - that sounds glorious!!

    Month/Cycle: 3/3 

    CD: 4

    WAYDTGKU: FF, bbt, prenatals, HIO EOD, OPKs 

    R/R: DH is home this weekend, so he is helping me clean this hell hole of a house we live in. My OPKs should be coming in today, so I’ll have those by the time AF moves on out. 

    CS/Q: nothing to see

    GTKY: What would your “last meal” be? No dietary restrictions, just the best things you could possibly eat. Ooh good question. I would probably go with a caprese salad, filet minion cooked medium with a balsamic reduction, mashed potatoes, Brussels sprouts, green beans, warm French baguette, with fresh strawberry cheesecake for dessert.

    @chindimples04 Good Lord, you definitely need a new car! You don't need this added anxiety!
