dsher · January 2021

Month/Cycle: 1/1

CD/DPO: 17/3

Timing: -5,-3,-1,0

Typical LP length: 11-12

Testing: Really trying to wait until Feb.1....we'll see

R/R: Due to covid and a whole bunch of other factors we have been living with my MIL for a couple of months and will prob be here till our big overseas move in June. There are no words for how not ideal this is. She is a v difficult person on the best of days so the whole lockdown is testing everyone's limits at the moment. Honestly surviving day to day here!

CS/Q: Nothing interesting!

jackie_dunny · January 2021

@dsher hii! Ugh still having issues with your MIL? I know lockdown makes it super hard but are you able to get away at all? Like going for a walk around the neighborhood?

Month/Cycle: 0/0?

CD/DPO: 21/4

Timing: doesn’t really count

Typical LP length: ~13

Testing: WFAF

R/R: I’m waiting on ONE reference to get back to my new job before they can give me a start date. They sent several emails, the first one being two weeks ago, and still no reply. All of my background checks and everything have come back, literally just waiting for this stupid reference. I tried calling them myself today but guess who isn’t working today 🙄

CS/Q: not yet

fitzfizz · January 2021

@dsher Good luck waiting until Feb 1! I hope things with your MIL calm down some.

@jackie_dunny Very annoying about the reference. Hopefully they aren’t doing it on purpose at all and it gets fixed soon.

Month/Cycle: 13/1 AL #2

CD/DPO: 27/10

Timing: -1,-2,-3,-5

Typical LP length: 13 days

Testing: Nope, not unless I’m late

R/R: My meeting yesterday was better than I expected and I got my salary up to what I was hoping for (and what I deserve based on recent numbers), so that’s good. I celebrated by shopping (a lot). I’m very glad my husband has no concept of what craft supplies cost...

CS/Q: Temp is back up today so who even knows what yesterday was.

jackie_dunny · January 2021

@fitzfizz oh yay! So happy the meeting went well and you got the salary you deserve! No better way to celebrate a pay raise than with shopping 🙌🏻

dsher · January 2021

jackie_dunny yay it's so nice to see you here! Welcome! And yes unfortunately still dealing with this living nightmare. Definitely do try to go for walks (we're limited to 5km of our houses at the moment) but motivation can be a struggle! Glad you're here and that is super annoying about your ref, I would totally chase them up again yourself on Monday!

@fitzfizz very happy for you that your meeting went well and you got the raise! Shopping is 100% the right call

misspricklepants · January 2021

@fitzfizz yay, exciting news! Happy to hear.

@dsher hope your situation improves sooner than later!

Month/Cycle: 2/2

CD/DPO: 29/15

Timing: -2, -1, 0

Typical LP length: who knows

Testing: Yes, from 9-14dpo... now WFAF

*TW*

9-14dpo (cheapie/FRER) produced faint, basically non-existent lines. Assuming CP at this point, unfortunately. Never experienced this before so any advice is welcome!

R/R: Rant: IT'S FRIDAY! 1/2 bath and laundry room home improvements are coming along nicely so hopefully will make more progress on those this weekend.

CS/Q: None

@misspricklepants Feel free to post in the TTCAL thread with any specific questions, but basics in the spoiler:
*tw loss*

CPs are the worst! I'm really sorry you experienced this. It's amazing how much hope and expectation can be placed on an extremely faint pink line. A couple of things:
(1) You aren't really out until you're out, and HPTs can be wonky early on. I would maybe hold off posting about anything that even resembles a positive test here until you get AF. Maybe that's a little over-the-top, so others can weigh in, but I tend to err on the side of caution. I think you've been doing a good job with spoilers, etc.
(2) If it is a CP, the good news is, there isn't really anything to do. There is no need to see a doctor, or track betas, or wait to try again because it was so early. Your body basically just sees it as a normal period, and if you get AF on time you will likely also O on time, no worries.
(3) If you find you are having many CPs in a row, then it's probably time to talk to a doctor. But having one CP is very, very normal if you're testing early, and the good news is it means that some things at least (sperm, ovulation) are definitely working.

@bumblebee0210 thank you for chiming in. I don’t have a problem with how @misspricklepants handled this but I do agree as a general rule, it’s probably best to not post about any kind of lines in the daily threads unless you are 100% sure you are out.
@misspricklepants I know we direct Peggys to the pee stick thread in first tri so it probably doesn’t seem like a legit thread, but that’s a perfectly valid place to go in times like these if you want to share your tests! Like @bumblebee0210 said HPTs can be wonky. I hope that’s the case for you.

@bumblebee0210 @bows22 THANK YOU ladies!!
