Re: TWW Thursday 11/5

  • Month/Cycle: 17/10

    CD/DPO: 63/3

    Timing: excellent

    Typical LP length: 13

    Testing: probably next weekend

    R/R:  Got my CHs this morning! I'm feeling a little less anxious about the election but I won't be able to relax until it's called for Biden. But to top my election anxiety, I found out last night that my school district got its first COVID case so that's fun. It's in the HS so I'm at least in a different building. I knew it was only a matter of time though.

    CS/Q:  
  • Loading the player...
  • @gingermama29 it’s honestly impressive your district lasted this long without a positive case. Schools around me have been going remote for 2 week stretches for a while now due to cases in the schools

    Month/Cycle: 2/1

    CD/DPO: 34/4

    Timing: good

    Typical LP length: unknown

    Testing: going to hold out as long as possible

    R/R: I got to sleep in this morning which felt great. I’ve already been starting to SS and MH keeps bothering me to see when the soonest I could test is. I’m trying to keep our expectations realistic but since this is our first cycle trying I think we can’t help ourselves. 

  • @gingermama29 girl I am so impressed with your perseverance. All those - OPKs but then finally when everyone else is in high stress with the election your body is like "it's go time!" Like how?  :D And I'm just so proud of you for sticking with it with everything else that has been going on. I'm getting emotional now. Sorry  <3
    @pharmd93 sleeping in is so nice! 

    Month/Cycle: 12/12

    CD/DPO: 25/10

    Timing: good

    Typical LP length: 13 days

    Testing: probably Saturday 12 dpo so we can prep ourselves for CD 1 and the RE

    R/R: I have just been a whole ball of anxiety and emotion this week and I am fighting with MH and he's really pissing me off. We have scheduled time today to talk so I guess I'm just going to make a list of my grievances. 

    CS/Q: none

    *TW LC*
    Me & MH: 32
    DS: 6/1/18 (Pre-E; IUGR; seizures; NICU)
    TTC #2: 12/2019
    Sept 2020: HSG possible blocked right tube
    Nov 2020: Letrozole + TI - BFN
    Dec 2020: Letrozole + TI - BFP!!! EDD 9/18

  • Month/Cycle: 13/12

    CD/DPO: 30/9

    Timing: -5,-3,0

    Typical LP length: apparently 11 days

    Testing: tomorrow? Sunday?

    R/R: the pharmacy lost my refill request on Monday so I couldn't take my SSRI last night because I ran out. I had to go first thing this morning to get it and take it 12 hours too late and 12 hours before my next dose. This will probably make me sick today. 

    CS/Q: if this cycle isn't it, this chart is a MAJOR troll 



  • Month/Cycle:  1/1

    CD/DPO: CD26/10DPO

    Timing: good 

    Typical LP length: 13 days

    Testing: another BFN this morning. 

     I will likely test once again tomorrow but I’m positive I’m out at this point. If I was going to get a positive, I would have seen it today for sure. For me personally, I’m not going to see a positive if I didn’t get one today. 

    R/R: I can’t take the stress of the election anymore. I need it to end. Yesterday I was so stressed out that I went to relax in a bath. I forgot to plug the drain though and by the time I realized it the water was running cold. I was so annoyed with myself. 

    CS/Q: my temps are still up pretty high 🤷🏻‍♀️ At this point, I’m going to request a new sensor from Tempdrop. I don’t trust it after the issues I have had this last week. This is so random and it’s really bad timing. It will take weeks to get a new one because it ships from Israel. 🙄



  • I will be back for tags later. 
  • @gingermama29 I agree. Definitely feeling better about the election, but I just want it to be over!
    @pharmd93 SS is the worst. MH has also been wondering when I’ll test. 
    @krash_ sorry you are having a tough week. I hope your talk goes well.

    Month/Cycle: 3/3

    CD/DPO: 23/7

    Timing: good!

    Typical LP length: 11 days?

    Testing: I am going to try to make it to Sunday, but I have a feeling I might cave sooner.

    R/R: I took out my Christmas decorations today, and my new fake tree is being delivered today. Need some holly jolly in my life after this ridiculous year. I’m not normally one to decorate before Thanksgiving, but this year it is warranted. 

    CS/Q: just waiting til the weekend. Temps are still up. I’m still on the fence of when I O’d. FF says I am 7dpo, but the Premom app which has all of my OPKs and temps says I am 8dpo.🤷🏼‍♀️


  • @gingermama29 sorry COVID has hit so close to home. Hopefully you can continue to avoid it. 

    @pharmd93 I’m jealous of you getting to sleep in. I was wide awake at 5 am. 

    @krash_ I sorry you’re fighting with DH. Hopefully y’all have a productive talk today. 

    @legendairymomma I’m so hopeful for this to be your month! Your chart is looking amazing! 

    @daisy528 We are planning to decorate some today too. Probably not the tree but we are getting some light up. I have noticed in AK people start decorating in October (for Christmas) and don’t take them down until March or April. 😳 I assume it’s because of the ice but you would think they would turn them off after January. 
  • @legendairymomma your chart is purrrrrrty! I’m totally keeping my FX crossed for you!

    @emeraldcity1214 with your temps still up, I def wouldn’t count yourself out just yet. 10dpo is still early, especially if you have a 13 day LP!
  • @daisy528 premom always auto calculates the day after your peak OPK to be ovulation. I suspect that ff is correct more times than not. 
  • @legendairymomma ooh good to know - thanks!
  • @pharmd93 I'm jealous you got to sleep in today! And the SS struggle is real! It's so hard not to when you're closely tracking every aspect of your cycle.

    @krash_ awww thank you friend 💕. I hope your scheduled talk time went well and we productive today!

    @legendairymomma ugh that's so frustrating about your SSRI. I hope missing a dose didn't send to making you sick.

    @emeraldcity1214 sorry for another BFN. I'm still crossing fingers for you that you're still a little too early for testing. Hopefully we'll get election results soon and can all breathe a collective sigh of relief.

    @daisy528 all rules are out this year. If decorating early makes you happy, do it! 
  • @daisy528 Based off of my past experience it would be very odd. With my Tempdrop sensor acting weird I feel like I can’t trust my temps at this point. I sent my logs to support and I’m still waiting for a reply. I’m going to push for a new sensor at this point. I may try a regular BBT next cycle just to have solid accurate temps until I get the new sensor. I just have a hard time waking and remembering to temp. I have spoiled myself with my Tempdrop. 🤦🏻‍♀️ It has never let me down like it has this cycle. 

    @gingermama29 I really wish I could just put my head in the sand until it’s all over. My Fitbit logged me as exercising yesterday and I did no such thing. The stress has had my heart rate up that much. 😳 I am generally an anxious person so it doesn’t take much but even with my intense anxiety a few weeks ago, it wasn’t this bad. I honestly think it’s just been building over the months and the fact it isn’t over is just pushing me over the edge.

    @emeraldcity1214 ugh I feel that so much. Sending hugs. I'm also a generally anxious person that has seen it ramp up enormously this year. I saw my doctor in August and got put on anxiety meds because I felt paralyzed by it and honestly it's one of the best decisions I've made. I think I would be a wreck right now without it. 
  • @gingermama29 I felt like I was getting to a point where I wasn’t able to function a few weeks ago. I have no idea what ramped it up so bad. I got to the point I could barely bring myself to leave my house. I pushed really hard for us to get a new puppy because I found one that my husband wanted. Snuggling that little puppy has done amazing things for my anxiety. We lost our dog to cancer in March and I used to sit and just pet him and snuggle him in the evening. Even in college I would tell my husband I needed to bring him with me when I needed to do a presentation. I ended up having to get a beta blocker just so I could defend my thesis. 🤦🏻‍♀️
