    WAYDTGKU: bbt/ opks

    R/R: today we have a beautiful, sunny, 73 degree day so far! I don’t really have any plans and mh is already annoying me about packing for vacation that starts Friday. Like he packs anything ever anyways. *multiple eyerolls* It always gets done, quit micromanaging me, dude! 

    CS/Q:  how important is getting a temp at the same time everyday? Like I try to get it in the 5:30-6:30 time frame, but sometimes I’m a little early and if I’m on the late end of that ff yells at me.

    @paytonpedro I totally feel your pain, MH will disappear into the bathroom for 45 minutes and then come busting out wondering why we aren’t ready to go RIGHT THIS SECOND. Also, on the days I work I get up at 5 am but I’m not about that life on my days off so my temps are either at 5 or 7. The rage from FF though 😳 I think if you’re within an hour timeframe you should be okay!

    WAYDTGKU: BBTs, CM/CP, BD EOD, PNVs

    R/R: Today is the first day in a long time I can just take it easy. We’ve been going at 200mph for the past month and a half and things are finally settling back to our crazy “normal”. Looking forward to doing nothing!

    CS/Q:  I had a temp dip today and EWCM the past few days (maybe TMI, sorry) although FF is telling me O day isn’t until Saturday. This is only my second cycle off BCP so I’m wondering what my normal is… I’ve been on one form of BC or another for so long I’m not sure what my cycle looks like without it so there’s a big learning curve for me. I might order OPKs next week for some extra insight.

    @paytonpedro In my experience it's pretty important - I get rocky mountain temps if I don't temp at the same time every day. BUT also in my experience, with entering CM as well as temps, FF has still been able to pinpoint O even with the rocky mountain temps.

    @aloha_mama FF is just guessing when O day is going to be based on previous data - it only "knows" when it detects a sustained temp shift for three days. So right now your signs point to you being fertile right now, but FF always says don't stop doing it until you know that ovulation is in the past. PS I feel you on just wanting to relax after being so busy! Sometimes days at home doing nothing and seeing nobody are the best.

    WAYDTGKU: at this point, twiddling my thumbs and waiting for fertile CM to show up in a couple weeks. Welcome to the very boring first half of my super long cycle...

    R/R: Nah. I'm having a good day today, but nothing noteworthy

    @paytonpedro I had the rockiest rocky mountain temps like @wisewitch222 last cycle and my temps were taken within a 30 min window-often like, a 15 minute window. I thought it was just my body being weird but maybe it does make really THAT much of a difference for such a short time. 

    @aloha_mama enjoy that down time! I love a day of nothing after days of go go go!

    @wisewitch222 I'm laughing at your, "nothing noteworthy". 

    Month/Cycle: 3/3

    WAYDTGKU: OPK, CM, CP, temping

    R/R: We leave for vacation on Thursday-I love a good road trip! Just going to Baltimore and DC for a few days for a baseball game. 

    TW LC

    The kids have never been to a baseball game and H, a diehard Orioles fan, insists their first game is in Camden Yards. So once we do this game we can finally do other baseball games.

    @aloha_mama literally why are they in the bathroom so long?!? Ugh. Mh does the same thing. Or gets pissy if I do forget one thing. Ya coulda helped! Haha. Grr. 
    So glad your pace is slowing and you finally get to take it easy!! 

    @wisewitch222 I’m glad you’re having a good day! Thanks for the bbt advice! I’ll have to try and narrow down my timing. I usually just temp when mh gets up for work and wakes me up- but he doesn’t set an alarm and sometimes it varies. 

    @smashjam I hope you guys have so much fun on your vacation!! Yay for packing this week haha.

    @wisewitch222  Wow, I totally stand corrected on the timing of temps! I had no idea it mattered that much. And I am definitely treating this as FW no matter what my crazy, all-over-the-place temp chart says 😂 Thank you for the advice!
