[wannabmama]

Hi y'all!
How's everyone doing?? Merry Christmases all around? Update us!

QOTW: got any fun NYE plans?

[wannabmama]

Hi everyone!!
Got a bit of an update...
TW

SPOILER: Click to show

I've been testing (sort of by accident...I tested out my trigger but before it went white, it got way darker) since 10dpo, the lines are nice and dark, definitely the darkest I've ever had. I've had four early losses, so I'm very nervous, but my first beta was today. Now I sit on pins and needles until they call. Praying for a good first number and doubling time...

QOTW: I'm going to be up in NH in the morning for a baptism of my godchild that morning, then driving home. MH and I talked about having a little get together, but I'm hoping that never comes together and we can just order Chinese food and hang on the couch together! Though I do love hosting, so that'd be fine, too!

[obscurereference]

wannabmama Woohoo!!! So excited for you!! I hope you have a perfect 9 months!

I'm hanging out in the TWW of cycle 6. It was extra fun to fit sex in over Christmas but we managed I think.

I tried to do too much for Christmas this year but it was fun besides a serious lack of sleep. The lack of sleep also contributed to me getting sick. Again. Or still. Not sure which.

NYE we will probably watch a movie after the kids are in bed. Christmas with my dad on New Year's Day. I'm so cooked out I think we might just order some deli sandwiches from Publix!

Lurking, but wannabmama I am so incredibly happy for you. FX for great betas and a very happy and healthy 9 months. Please let this be your rainbow(s).

[caer]

I've been stalking your updates wannabmama! I'm so happy for you. I hope the beta today is awesome. Update us if you can!

[bex15]

Yay wannabmama, crossing everything for you!!

[bex15]

I'm on CD15, hoping I don't have another long and weird cycle like last month and I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I O in the next day or two. RE prescribed progesterone supplements to help with early spotting so it's nice to be trying something new at least.

Does anyone use OPK's at work? I can't figure out how the hell to do this logistically.

QOTW: We're supposed to go to a friend's house in the afternoon for day drinking but will be in early, MH has to work the next day so I doubt we'll stay up for midnight.

[wannabmama]

I never could do opks at work bex15 I tried once and it was a disaster. I think it depends on your work bathroom situation. I know people use toss out cup and wondfo with the thin wrapper so they test in cup and out back in wrapper...but it wasn't worth it for me ha!

[obscurereference]

bex15 I've never done them at work but I have done them out and about. I just do a plastic cup. Pee in cup, dip test, dump pee in toilet, throw cup out, and I put the test on top of the wrapper if I can and set it as horizontal as possible in my purse. You could probably put it back in the wrapper, too. Set a timer on my phone and then leave bathroom as normal.

ETA: I use wondfos. Not sure about the wrapper situation on other brands.

[bex15]

Thanks wannabmama, and obscurereference! I've been using Clear Blue recently but I have a ton of Wondfo's still and it would definitely be much easier using those!

[sleepymonkey]
