WAYDTGKU: OPKs and (thanks to this group!) BBT
R/R: Really nice happy hour with my husband last night. Also, feeling grateful to this group to have a plan that will help me confirm ovulation this month.
CS/Q: Not today but probably soon!
Month/Cycle: 3/2

WAYDTGKU: on the lookout for fertile CM (still in the long boring first half of super long cycle)
R/R: In laws are visiting for the weekend and we’re going to do fun stuff, yay!
Month/Cycle: 1/1
CD: 9
WAYDTGKU: Benched this cycle, tracking for future cycles.
R/R: Vacation is next week and we finally nailed down some plans. Between family plans and a double date night, I am really looking forward to it!
CS/Q: None at the moment. I think today is O day but will have to watch BBT to confirm.
@agesandstages It took a while for me to get used to temping and I am honestly the worst at temping on the weekends because I am always late, but since I have been doing it for a while, it really does help to see cycle patterns and get a better idea of where I am in my cycle.
@wisewitch222 Yay for family stuff!

@anniemarie887 Welcome back, glad you’re feeling better!
@tessiesmom26 Hooray for vacations!
@agesandstages You’re going to love the charting your BBTs will give you! They are really good at making things clearer.
Month/Cycle: 2/2

WAYDTGKU: PNVs, BD EOD, BBTs, CM/CP
R/R: Heading to my grandparents’ rental today to spend time with them!
CS/Q: Should I be HIO every day during fertile week or is every other day okay? I know every day is preferable.
@tessiesmom26 what are the plans? Awesome to nail something down!
@aloha_mama I try to hit every day in case ovulation is wrong. But I feel like I've heard ever other is fine? More than one person on here has said that their RE mentioned hitting -1, 0, and 1 so maybe those are good days to go every single day?
@agesandstages the combo of temping and OPK really makes me feel more in control of a mostly uncontrollable situation! Hopefully it does the same for you!
@wisewitch222 it's awesome that you're excited to hang with your in-laws! Hope all the plans go well!

WAYDTGKU: temping, cm, cp, opk
R/R: on vacation!! I'm tired, lol. And I forgot my thermometer and I'm in a wasteland where there is literally nowhere nearby to get one. And o should be Saturday. It is NOT a good day to have a blank temp spot!
