GTKY: What is the most ridiculous nightmare/dream you remember having?

Re: TWW Weekend 2/12 - 2/13

  • Month/Cycle: 25/19/2AL

    CD/DPO: 22/9 (I think; my phone is too far away to confirm)

    Timing: it was fine, but I'm pretty sure we're out this cycle

    Typical LP length: however long I want it to be given progesterone

    Testing: 2 BFNs in a row; not expecting miracles with progesterone for 7.6 at 7DPO

    R/R: It's the weekend Yay! We have more unpacking to do this weekend but also will try to take it easy. We've got no plan for Superb Owl since neither of us are into sports ball, we don't know anyone in the neighborhood, and there are so many better ways to spend a Sunday afternoon. Fight me for it. 

    CS/Q: Nope. 

    GTKY: What is the most ridiculous nightmare/dream you remember having? I'm not great at remembering dreams, especially those that happened years ago. But in the last... I would say.. 6ish months, I was having dreams where I'm somehow forced to get back with my ex. And I can't leave him even though I want to be with my H. So weird. I'm guessing it's therapy uncovering a lot of stuff.

  • @acleverusername I’m sorry for your BFN’s 😔 I’m sure therapy definitely contributed to your dream. That’s strange, and definitely shakes you a bit. I hate dreams like that! 

    Month/Cycle: 2/2

    CD/DPO: 24/3dpo

    Timing: -3, -2, -1, 0

    Typical LP length: 12ish days

    Testing: starting at 10dpo probably 

    R/R: today was auditions for my color guard group! I finally got to see my high school director for the first time in 2 years! We saw each other last right before Covid hit, so it was amazing to see her, and to combine my color guard worlds! 

    CS/Q: finally got crosshairs this morning! 



    GTKY: What is the most ridiculous nightmare/dream you remember having? I’m so bad at remembering them long term! I can’t honestly think of one right now…
