Month/Cycle: 34/36

CD/DPO: 25/8

Timing: -4, -2, -1

Typical LP length: it’s a mess

Testing: I actually did today (I don’t usually test this early) so that I can have some drinks tonight guilt-free. BFN obviously.

R/R: My RE saga is finally done and I’m allowed to do an IUI next cycle! I’m so relieved. I hope AF holds off a few more days even though I have been feeling like it’s going to start any minute since Wednesday. I told the RE that I had a 7 day LP last cycle and feel like it’s happening again. She said the clomid + progesterone will make my body do what it’s supposed to do so that’s good I guess, but hopefully I never have to go on birth control again for any reason because I feel like it totally screwed up my body. Happy Friday all!

Month/Cycle: 2/2AL

CD/DPO: 20/9

Timing: O-1

Typical LP length: 13/14

Testing: BFN this morning, knowing damn well it's too early. I also told DH I was going to run out last night to get tests and he told me to wait until Saturday because "what's two days?" He's not wrong.. but still! Haha.

R/R: I want to do a rave today because I feel like I've been a super negative nelly lately, so I will say I took all my vitamins everyday for over a week! Small victory but one that I am proud of! I also made it into bed by 10 last night and was actually able to fall asleep right away instead of scrolling on TikTok for hours so way to go me!

@bows22 I'm glad you got everything sorted with the RE and have a good plan for moving forward!

bows22 · September 2021

@tessiesmom26 it’s amazing how long 2 days can feel when you are waiting to test! I don’t like the buildup so I just get it out of the way (not usually at 8 dpo like I did today though 😆). I hope the early bedtime gave you energy today!

@anniemarie887

I used the day of my D&C as CD1 per the direction of FF, so I feel like that would be the same for your CP. It's really the only day you have to go off of until your body regulates.

@anniemarie887 I’m very interested in acupuncture! Are you going for fertility related reasons or were you doing it before?

anniemarie887 · September 2021

@bows22 feel free to ask away. I went religiously for stress and some neck/shoulder pain mgmt Dec 2016- Dec 2019. I am a huge supporter of it and encourage anyone I talk to that they should give it a go.
TW prior preg/live child/loss (gosh, all the things)

In 2019 when I knew I wanted to ttc I told my Acupuncturist and got pregnant the first month we tried. I was a week overdue with my daughter and fully believe acupuncture put me into labor 10 hours later. This time around we’ve been trying off and on since December. I actually had my first appt in August when I would’ve been like 3 weeks. Today she spent time putting energy back in from my CP and areas to focus on us trying again once I complete this cycle.
