Re: TWW Wednesday 6/9
Timing: 👍🏻
Typical LP length: not sure, first time doing bbt in a while. Around 14
Testing: not till late next week
R/R: i think our AC upstairs is out (there’s a unit on each floor in our new house) which is just...so frustrating. They’re still working on our million dollar roof, soffits, and gutters and I’m already frustrated bc they said 3-5 days and started on 5/21. DH is trying to calm me down but I already regret moving and now the new house is proving to be a money pit just like our old one was when we first moved in. Like are we the unluckiest homeowners or what. Other than that I have a day completely packed with meetings and it’s raining. Bring on the anger, and coffee 😆
CS/Q: FF gave me CH! Yay
Edited for CD and DPO- apparently reading numbers on a chart is hard for me haha
Timing: -3, -2, -1, O, O+1
Typical LP length: Last month was only 10 days, but it was also the first month I'd been charting, so not sure yet
Testing: Waiting until at least 10 DPO
R/R: DH wanted pizza for his birthday last night, but we were too lazy to make one of our own healthier pizza recipes, so we ordered. We're both seriously regretting the grease. My stomach is pretty sensitive to grease and sugar due to medication I'm on, but we went all out. Why do we do this to ourselves?
CS/Q: None
@awello sorry you're feeling the pizza today. I hope it was tasty at least!
Month/Cycle: 8/7
Timing: O-3, O-1
Typical LP length: 10 days
Testing: Tuesday or Wednesday next week
R/R: woke up with a headache but I think it's from how I was sitting doing homework last night. Not much happening today, probably more cross stitch and homework, maybe a little cleaning.
CS/Q: happy with my temp shift this cycle, though FF is freaking out that I ovulated earlier than usual and didn't have a positive opk lol.
Yay for CH!! Sorry about your AC, I hope it gets fixed soon! 🥵
@awello because pizza is sooooo good!
@fantasyflyte haha FF is freaking out because I also have no positive opk and because I ovulated late 😂 but that's a good temp shift!

@b_1029 I knew it was a fallback rise! Too bad we're not DPO buddies 🥺 I feel like our house is a money pit too. At least we've committed to living here for a while
@awello mmmm pizza. If we didn't have burger meat that was about to go bad I'd totally suggest it for dinner tonight. We'll just have to have it tomorrow! Sometimes greasy food sounds super tasty and half the time the regret is there when it sits in the bottom of your stomach. And omg rips in the butt?? You should just toss those jeans in the trash!
@fantasyflyte that shift is definitely there! Are your surges short?
@pajamstagrams my previous job I had a coworker who would fall asleep at his desk. Due to his medication, but still annoying!
