Re: TWW Wednesday 11/11

  • Month/Cycle: 17/10

    CD/DPO: 69/9

    Timing: excellent

    Typical LP length: 13

    Testing: Friday if I can hold out that long

    R/R:  The BFP dreams have started 🙄🙄. I'm trying to hold off testing though because it's still pretty early but those very vivid dreams are not helping my resolve!
    Enjoying a quiet day off with DH today.  We need to catch up on some laundry and kitchen cleaning but hopefully we'll get some relaxation time too.

    CS/Q: the SS has started too. Chill out gingermama! 😂

  • @gingermama29 I'd be SS'ing too with a chart like that! Hang in there! FX. And enjoy your day off today. I guess YH also has today off? 

    Month/Cycle: 10/10

    CD/DPO: 18/7

    Timing: excellent

    Typical LP length: on a lower dose of progesterone this month so idk 

    Testing: on Monday I guess? I dunno. I'm SO OVER testing. Haha. But I think I should since I'd need to make plans for next steps if BFN. 

    R/R: woke up with a headache this morning and it's still lingering. Gah. Today is going to be a busy day as we're driving up to the cabin for the weekend this afternoon. MH has the day off so he's luckily doing all the prep for our trip (we're bringing some food, etc.). I made a flippant comment/ask to the tune of "can you do this, since you're not working today?" and he feigned an expression of horror and indignation and replied with "I AM working very hard; now I know how housewives feel!" Which, you know, obviously is true. 

    CS/Q:  I'm not charting and it's actually pretty freeing. I do have my Oura ring that tells me what my temperature deltas are, and it's been all over the place this TWW so 🤷‍♀️. The lower dose of progesterone is definitely better since I don't have sore boobs anymore. Probably not a good sign though.

  • @gingermama29 your chart looks good. I would be SS too! 
    @acleverusername yh response is hilarious! I don't know why, but when dw calls me on her break at 8 pm and ask what I'm up to. I feel guilty if I'm sitting on my phone or watching tv. Not like I haven't been up and doing 99 other things since 6am or so that morning.

    Month/Cycle: 5/ 2 AL

    CD/DPO: 19/6

    Timing: excellent

    Typical LP length: 14

    Testing: debating 12 dpo

    R/R: dw tells at noon me the guy is supposed to replace it gutters today. It's almost 4 and no gutter guy. 🤷

  • @acleverusername have fun at the cabin this weekend!!

    @Kenneylynn3 ugh that's so frustrating. I'm assuming they didn't call or anything either?
  • @gingermama29 nope. I'm leaving the task of calling him or whatever to my wife.
