Re: TWW Tuesday 8/17
Month/Cycle: 10/10
CD/DPO: 19/~2
Timing: -3
Typical LP length: 14
Testing: doubtful
R/R: allll byyyyy my selfffffff. lol. i know i've been crummy about posting, and i also feel like there's a quieter lull in the board? i am doing better taking my vitamins tho! wooo. but alas, i hurt my shoulder and got put on steroids, so that ruined our plan for timing this month. ugh.CS/Q: natm
@anniemarie887 I agree, the board has been really quiet. I think once it gets like this it has a hard time picking up again because it’s harder for lurkers to kind of slip in. I’m glad you decided to jump back in!
Month/Cycle: 33/35
CD/DPO: 24/1
Timing: benched
Typical LP length: used to be 12-13, dropped down to 10 but is occasionally longer again.
Testing: zero chance of a positive so no
R/R: we had a wonderful vacation with my family. It was insanely hot so we spent most of our time at the pool versus the beach but it was the perfect escape from TTC, from work, from general life stress. I’m feeling really rejuvenated and happy! Also feeling happy that I ovulated and am another step closer to AF, scheduling my biopsy, and finding out what is going on in with my lining.
CS/Q:
Month/Cycle: 5/4
CD/DPO: 29/6
Timing: - 1, 0
Typical LP length: 10
Testing: probably starting tomorrow if I unpack the test strips from my suitcase.
R/R: I'm super irritated with everything right now. Not sure if that's a symptom of pregnancy, pms, or just normal. Drove to my parents house to get my phone screen replaced (they don't service my neck of the woods) but something got screwed up and they're not coming so I could have been home unpacking but I'm here instead. And everyone (mom, aunt, sister) just keeps asking why aren't they coming and making a bigger deal about it. They're just not leave it be. Oh and I have to be nice to the tech because my back glass is broken and they're not supposed to repair back glass, but my last tech told me to buy the back glass and just give it to him and he'll do both instead of paying the $150 deductible to replace the phone... Well that tech didn't have an appointment slot before I left our place for the summer so I don't even know if the tech here will do it, or report me for fraud..... So irritated with everything.... Rave, I'll be headed home soon and will be able to depeople for a couple days which will feel nice.
CS/Q:
@anniemarie887 & @bows22 it is very slow and hard for me as a lurker, wannabe poster to hop in without feeling like it's not a space i can be in yet.
@fantasyflyte I think you're right about vacations this time of year.
@bows22 I’m so glad you had a good vacation and got the well needed rest and relaxation you needed! That sounds delightful!
@jhysmath that sounds very frustrating! I’m sorry! I hope everything works out for you and you can get home ASAP!
Month/Cycle: 3/3AL
CD/DPO: 20/5
Timing: -2, 0
Typical LP length: 9/10 maybe?? I really don’t know lol
Testing: if AF is late, probably in a week
R/R: this vacation has been so much fun but so fast paced I have barely had a second to sit down where I wasn’t exhausted lol. To top it off, I have herniated discs in my back that decided the last 3 weeks would be a good time to flare so I’m in so much pain. Ugh. But I’m still trying to enjoy myself as much as I can.
CS/Q: nah. I gave up on temping because I was drinking on vacation and my temps were wonky as f.
