Month/Cycle: 8/7

CD: 16

WAYDTGKU: BBT, OPKs

R/R: Short weeks are the longest weeks, amirite? Happy it’s Friday. It’s going to be cold here this weekend so I anticipate a lot of staying in and sitting by the fire patiently waiting for my fw.

CS/Q: My TD has been giving me much smoother temps than I had been getting orally which is exactly why I wanted to get it, so I’m happy about that

@fameonmain2 I didn’t have a short week but it still feels especially long! TGIF! Hope you start seeing some FW signs and can capitalize on staying in!

Month/Cycle: 26/28

CD: 12

WAYDTGKU: OPKs, Tracking CM

R/R: I need to start taking OPKs...but we started EOD on Wednesday so at least I have the important part covered. I haven’t been around much this week, I started working out in the mornings and tackling my non-work to do list during my lunch which are my 2 main bumping times! At some point my to do list should be empty though if I keep this up? Today was scheduling an appt for a physical. I’ve been feeling kind of off the whole month - anxious in the evening a few times a week for no real reason. Like my body can’t decompress from the day or something. Then once I’m settled on the couch watching TV I’m fine. It’s just a little unsettling. Anyway, I was due for a physical anyway so I figured I’d take care of that and see what they have to say!

@fameonmain2 I worked Monday so no short week for me, but certainly has been a long and frustrating one. How cold is cold for you? We're like a high of 14 today My phone's weather report said it was 7 this morning feeling like -4 or something. Yikes lol.

@bows22 girl you forget your OPKs every cycle lol. I swear you did that last month or the month before. Hope everything with your physical goes well and they have some tips or thoughts to help you with your anxious feelings.

Month/Cycle: 43/3 AL

CD: 3

WAYDTGKU: GF and DF diet, OPKs, temping, Conceive+ if needed, maybe getting DH a little tipsy on O day if it happens on a Friday or Saturday hey that's what might have made it work last time

R/R: I don't think it's official yet, but sounds like our president/general manager wants everyone back in the office on a semi-regular basis starting next month. 2x a week in February then bump it up to 3x a week in March. I told DH to get my KU ASAP so I can hopefully get more time at home haha. Also because his work is having everyone stay home through all of 2021 and I'll be jealous. I really hope they don't make us go in too much until we get quite a few vaccinated. Since the start of the pandemic our location has only had 6-8 cases but obviously we know what happens when everyone starts relaxing the rules....

CS/Q: still nothing exciting going on here

@inthewoods23 I think my cycle just gets away from me. And on like CD 10 I’m like “eh I still have time” and then all of a sudden it’s CD 13! And wtf to your work? It’s pretty odd that they would have you home the whole time and then send you back right before people get vaccinated? Like they can’t wait a few more months? So strange.

fameonmain2 · January 2021

@bows22 nice on the working out and getting your to-do list done! I was much better with that last week (the to-do list part at least) but this week I have not been able to keep my focus at all. Hope you get some answers from your physical and they're able to give you some tips for managing those anxious feelings! I know that the not being able to do anything bc of the pandemic has been wearing more on me now than it had in the summer/fall.

@inthewoods23 this weekend it's supposed to be in the 20s but with the wind chill it will feel like 0, so close! I can deal with mid- to upper 20s but below that and I'm going to wrap myself up in blankets like a burrito indoors lol. Also wtf to your work? It seems silly to push people back in before the vaccine is widely available. What's the rush?? Also laughing so much at your WAYDTGKU & getting YH tipsy

bows22 · January 2021

@fameonmain2 thanks! I am pretty sure it’s the pandemic messing with me somehow. It’s hard to explain because I won’t even have a stressful day but will still feel that way? Just feels like my body is telling me something isn’t right even if it is just that I’m spending too much time looking at a screen! Just curious to get their thoughts because I’m sure I’m not the only one. And I’m sure it’s more difficult for you to get things done during the day with your job! My time is a little more flexible

@bows22 that's pretty fair, CD13 came sooner than I thought last cycle. Well also... I think that was like right after the holidays so that time between AF ending and getting to FW just flew by with all the time off I had. I should also note with going back to the office that we'd all be in some kind of rotation so it's not like everybody back on certain days. There may be some departments/people that come in Monday/Wednesday and others will do Tuesday/Thursday (building is always closed on Fridays yay). Idk, my boss probably wasn't even supposed to tell us yet haha so he said not to spread it around. It is kind of weird though because that's like a week away so you'd think they'd give people more time in case they needed to coordinate school/daycare.

@fameonmain2 brrr! yeah the 20s isn't bad, but once it gets down in the teens that is definitely bundle up with a scarf and hat weather. I think the push is just our company too, it's not coming from our parent company. Eh, we'll see. He has been wanting people back in the office since like October though. I had heard he wanted us back in the office in some capacity by December or something and that obviously didn't happen.
