Re: TWW Tuesday 10/27
Month/Cycle: 10/3 AL
CD/DPO: 30/13 or 14
Timing: Good
Typical LP length: 13 days
Testing: BFN on FRER 3 days ago, AF expected today, I had to convince myself this morning not to waste an FRER
R/R: Work yesterday was truly awful. I hate that I have to pretend that I really want to help all of my patients, but sometimes you get one who is just a dick and you detest them. I wish we could fire patients but you really can’t unfortunately. Maybe today will be better, but the imminent arrival of AF says otherwise.
CS/Q: Temp still not down below cover line
Month/Cycle: 5/5
CD/DPO: 24/7
Timing: -4, -2, -1
Typical LP length: 11 days
Testing: Thursday, I have a therapy appointment that day so figured I could talk through my emotions
R/R: I think I have a UTI. 😭 So that sucks. It’s also DHs weekend so I’ll be WFH with him home. Hopefully I get stuff done. 🤣 I spent my afternoon yesterday painting my nails for photos we took yesterday so I need to get some work done today. 🙈
CS/Q: No more charting this cycle and it’s honestly so nice. 10/10 would recommend stopping temping after confirming o.
Me: 26 DH: 27
TTC #1 | June '18-August '18 | DD | Born April 21, 2019 | Due May 10, 2019
TTC#2 | June '20-February '21 | DS | Due October 27, 2021
Month/Cycle: 12/10
CD/DPO: 31/11
Timing: -2, 0(IUI), +1
Typical LP length: on progesterone so at least 14
Testing: Friday? Thursday? Who knows lol
R/R: It’s yet another rainy morning here. It has been just so gross and makes getting out of bed so darn difficult. I made some tea for the morning, which def helped brighten my mood a little bit. It’s the little things lol.
CS/Q:
Month/Cycle: 1
CD/DPO: 25/unsure
Timing:
Typical LP length: 11 days
Testing: bfn yesterday, might test again tomorrow.
R/R: wasn’t sure I would be in tww today, last night I had a little pink spotting and figured it was af. But this morning it has stopped so I guess I’ll hang in here. We watched Spotlight on Netflix last night which deserves a TW* and is pretty controversial but was done really well and we really liked it. It’s been on my watch list for a while and we finally got around to it.
CS/Q:
Month/Cycle: 1/1
CD/DPO: CD17/1DPO
Timing: I haven’t used OPKs so I’m just going to say O was yesterday. -1 and -3
Typical LP length: Last cycle was 13
Testing: DH made me agree to no testing. We will see if I hold out.
R/R: I Have a dinner date with some friends. Our cases have been on the rise so I’m glad we picked a place in the valley because they won’t shut the valley down. Masks aren’t even required out there. Rant is that I’m suppose to be at the lake in a few hours to meet some friends and I will need to dig my snow pants out. I’m just hoping it stays in the upper 20’s with no wind. 🥶
CS/Q:I was expecting a shift today. It looks good but I’m sure Tempdrop will adjust that temp down some tomorrow. I will be shocked if it doesn’t. Timing was surprisingly good considering DH’s work schedule.
@runningoncookies Lots of rain definitely brings my mood down too. I’m glad your tea lifted it some. What kind of tea are you drinking?
@chindimples04 good luck with therapy today. Glad to hear that not charting after confirming O is helping as well!
@runningoncookies tea sounds nice! It is the little things on rainy days!
@paytonpedro sorry for the BFN, hope you get some clarity soon!
@emeraldcity1214 enjoy your friends dinner date!
Month/Cycle: 11/12
CD/DPO: 16/1
Timing: -5 (does that even count?), -3, -2, 0, maybe we will add +1 today but I'm not really feeling it
Typical LP length: 13 days
Testing: not unless AF is late
R/R: the dog was barking at a deer in the back yard at 3 am. I'm so glad I'm not temping this cycle because they would have been all over the place. We have another kitchen estimate today really just to get more than one quote but then I think we will move forward with the one we got last week.
CS/Q: none
DS: 6/1/18 (Pre-E; IUGR; seizures; NICU)

Nov 2020: Letrozole + TI - BFN
Dec 2020: Letrozole + TI - BFP!!! EDD 9/18
@paytonpedro sorry for the BFN and the spotting. Hopefully AF is staying away and it was just too early.
@emeraldcity1214 yuck to snow pants! It was 18 degrees when I woke up and it’s just too early!
@krash_ I always count -5 when/if it happens. I can’t wait to see before/after a of your kitchen (if you’ll share with us!)
I am major symptom spotting today! 🤣 Backache and cramps have me think AF will arrive on time. But also, 7dpo could be implantation. And I can smell the ridiculous corn chips DH is eating in the other room, but do I normally smell that? Idk! 🤣🤷🏻♀️🤔🤪

@emeraldcity1214 enjoy your dinner date tonight! That sounds so nice! I go caffeine free during the TWW, so just some flavored rooibos tea, it was super super yummy though. Reminds me of a breakfast tea without the caffeine.
