    Typical LP length: 12 days… though last month was 9  

    Testing: Jan 8 or 9 - I want to know asap so I can start progesterone immediately  

    R/R: As I expected Friday blood work was too early so I need to go again on Wednesday as my doc wants to confirm ovulation.

    @wanderlustsoul hopefully bloodwork on Wednesday comes back positive!

    I don’t really know where I belong, see rant below. Edit because technically this is month 2…

    Month/Cycle: 2/1

    CD/DPO: 33/7

    Timing: -4, -1

    Typical LP length: unknown

    Testing: later this week if crosshairs come back

    R/R: I finally received dotted crosshairs on 12/26, but lost them today with a low temp. I’m hoping my temp jumps back up tomorrow and they come back. I have had 0 ovulation signs for over a week so I think I actually did ovulate. Just frustrated..

    CS/Q: for science 


    Me: 26     DH: 25
    DS1 -- 9/30/2016


  • I'm back after taking a few weeks off from all things TTC.

    Month/Cycle: 8... maybe.

    CD/DPO: 15/??? Not actively tracking- likely 2-5 DPO based on previous cycles

    Timing: EOD for Fertile window... kind of. We had a couple "oopsies" so not sure things got where they were supposed to. 

    Typical LP length: 25 days

    Testing: I won't be testing early, so 1/13 (let's be honest, I have HPTs so... we'll see)

    R/R: So many R/R. I lost my sh*t while trying to actively TTC to I'm **trying** to let things happen. More importantly, I got tests from my OB and my Estradiol was SKY high. 482 on day 3. My AMH is also low- .79. All of this combined makes me think this won't happen for me. I've just been having a hard time with it all. I have an appt with my OB on Thursday, so we'll see what she has to say. Based on last appt, she will reccomend Clomid. Not sure how I feel about that nor how my hubby will feel about it. Long story. So, that's all for now. 

    CS/Q: Nope. 
  • @AmMcc12 Not what you want to hear, but it doesn’t look to me like you actually O’ed yet. If I were you I’d keep BDing just in case.

    Month/Cycle: 2/1

    CD/DPO: 15/2

    Timing: -3, -1

    Typical LP length: 12-13 days

    Testing: probably at 10 or 11 DPO, which will be next Tuesday or Wednesday 

    R/R: 

    CS/Q: 
  • Month/Cycle: 2/2

    CD/DPO: cd 16

    Timing: -4 +1

    Typical LP length: 12d

    Testing: probably just wait for AF since it was a bad month,m

    R/R: Timing was awful but last week was awful at work and I worked late a bunch. 

    CS/Q: Not temping this month!

    Month/Cycle: 26/too many to know 

    CD/DPO: 23/9DPO

    Timing: -3,-2,-1,O

    Typical LP length: 12ish days 

    Testing: coming off the stomach bug and just feeling off (I’m sure a combo of the bug and progesterone supplements), took a test knowing it’s too early (taken 1/1). Negative. Trying not to test again until Wednesday when I know 10DPO could actually turn a test.

    R/R: omg the stomach flu has managed to knock MH and I down, separate timing at least.

    CS/Q: 



    @wanderlustsoul fx for bloodwork for you!

    @ammcc12 no expert, but I would agree probably haven’t ovulated based on your chart not showing a clear “biphasic” pattern

    @sunshine134 I’m sorry your lab work came back differently than expected

    eta: 2 i forgot, which is why i shouldn't bump on my cell phone at midnight when i can't sleep

    @britters314 fx crossed for you!

    @emmylou78 hoping for a better week at work!

    @AmMcc12 I find charting so hard because you have to be so precise and accurate with temping. 

    @sunshine134 I am sorry that your blood work didn’t come back as hoped. I hope you’re doing ok! 

    @britters314 FX for you for your cycle! 

    @emmylou78 I hope the rest of the week is quieter at work for you! 

    @anniemarie887 ugh stomach bugs are the absolute worst. I’m sorry about the negative but it is indeed early!

    *Live, Love, Laugh, Learn*

  • @wanderlustsoul I hope the bloodwork Wednesday confirms O.

    @AmMcc12 Argh, charting is so cruel. It can be so helpful to learn more about your body, but it can also be super stressful when you get a confusing chart.

    @sunshine134 I’m sorry about the bloodwork. I hope your appt with your doc goes well and you can formulate a plan moving forward.

    @britters314 Good luck this cycle! 

    @emmylou78 I hope work is a little calmer this week and you guys mail the timing next cycle. 

    @anniemarie887 I’m sorry the stomach bug got you. Keeping it all crossed for you for your next test! 

    Month/Cycle: 18 months since we started trying, with time off for losses/benching/etc. 4th cycle back TTC again

    CD/DPO: CD15, I think 3 DPO (not tracking anything this cycle, but ovulation pain on CD12)

    Timing: A whole bunch of unplanned, untimed vacation sex

    Typical LP length: 11-12, but it’s been 14-15 since I started acupuncture 

    Testing: I really want to avoid testing early this month, but I’m sure I’ll change my tune in a week or so. Why oh why does the TWW make me so crazy? 

    R/R: It felt good to take some time away from weekly treatments and OPKs and sex timing this last month. Back to acupuncture this morning and she mixed me up some fresh herbs, so feeling good and trying to stay hopeful for a the new year with new possibilities. 

    CS/Q: NATM
  • I got my blood work results and my progesterone at 4-5dpo was 40 (so 12.6 ng/mL) which seems great for that stage!

  • I'll try my best to reply to everyone

    @wanderlustsoul I hope bloodwork goes well. Any type of bloodwork can get the nerves going, especially TTC bloodwork!

    @AmMcc12 Hopefully you got some helpful info from your doctor!

    @sunshine134 That really sucks. My AMH is 0.8 and I'm only 25. My doctor did say that AFC is a better predictor for recent egg availability. Maybe you can have an ultrasound to check your AFC. I'm not sure if this is accurate info or not. Someone can correct me if I'm wrong.

    @anniemarie887 oof, the stomach bug plus progesterone. How are you surviving?

    @britters314 wishing you luck!

    @emmylou78 Honestly, after the first 6 months of TTC, I never took a test again. I just waited for AF. It helped a lot with my anxiety around TTC

    @maggiemadeit I definitely feel like there needs to be a better name for the TWW that encompasses the stress and anxiety associated with it



    Month/Cycle: 30/20 maybe? I tried to count in my head just now, probably very inaccurate

    CD/DPO:  16/3

    Timing: IUI 1dpo

    Typical LP length: 14

    Testing: blood test 14dpo but might do an at-home test 13dpo

    R/R: I'm trying hard not to get my hopes up, but it's so hard! I spent 2 hours looking at baby names today. Also, I love my SO, he is so supportive, but why does he keep rubbing my belly and saying "hello two cells"?!?! What does he not understand about "don't get our hopes up"?!?!

    CS/Q: Nope
  • @mokamonster that sounds like .... a doozy! i hope the next 13 days fly by for you!
