Thanks all. And TBH - and of course I don't want to piss anyone off - people said the same thing about LO and she was a gem. Piece of cake. Of course we were tired but she seriously is so awesome and I know how lucky we are (were) to have a relatively easy baby. Maybe we'll get lucky with the next 2??

(YEAH RIGHT. God is still laughing at our last "plan").

Your feelings are valid. There isn't one person I know who had twins that didn't have the same, exact feelings and they are okay. It will be a big adjustment but you guys will make it work.

And I don't think that's that close AT ALL.  My dad and his sister were one year apart TO THE DAY - how crazy is that?  

My dad is 9 months and 23 days older than his brother .  (My uncle was born about a month early)

My grandma had 5 kids in less than 4 years: my dad & uncle, followed by another uncle 18 months later...followed by my aunts (twins) 18 months after that. 

(Totally not trying to one-up anyone--I just think it's just too crazy of a story not to share!)

Isn't it crazy?  My mom is one of 8 and seriously, has like 75 cousins (so it goes to show you how many kids my grandma's siblings all had).  And my grandpa was 1 of 11.  HOW DID THEY DO IT?

My FFFC: Now that DS is eating normal food, I order him kids meals/entrees when we eat out, knowing that he'll only eat a little, because it means more leftovers for me. Yesterday I got takeout for myself and DS (DH is on a business trip). Today I have a delicious lunch thanks to DS only eating about 1/4 of his.

I do this too!  I used to order one meal for the twins to share, but now that they like different things I get two meals worth of leftovers from them.

My hairdresser was telling me about a client who had twins, a year later had a third and a year after that had another set of twins.
OMG

We had previously talked about the possibility for #3, so this just seals the deal for us.  My husband already mentioned a vasectomy the day we got home from the US.  But going for #3 and getting #3 AND #4 sounds a little worse to me...

We were so worried that it was going to be twins again when we found out we were pregnant with #3.  That u/s was such a relief for us to see just one.

I have one!
I roll my eyes at one my co-workers constantly. Her dog has been sick and near death (?) for months and it is all she ever talks about. Today she had a consult with a pet psychologist at lunch. I get that her dog is really important to her but she makes parallels to her dog dying and people dying.
I don't care how much a pet means to you, it is not the same as someone losing a parent for example like another co-worker just experienced.

Or maybe I'm way to freaking obsessed with this chart of mine. and it doesnt make sense and i'm not even currently ttc stupid ssm!!!

I just chart stalked you. There's probably no pattern to it because of all the open circles. Are you temping at the same time everyday after getting at least 3 hours of sleep in a row? Are you temping orally or vaginally?

[EatsRitz]

ssm go to that place that made you a better person.

DH and I are back and forth on whether we want 3 or 4 kids, so I've joked before that I hope that I get pregnant with twins next so I don't have to make the choice.

I don't really want that. I just don't like making decisions.

I've jokingly said the same thing because DH wants 2 and I want 3 kids. Hes a twin so he cringes every time I say it LOL

Currently, I am completely confused why the last 3 circles are open...They were all taken at the same exact time.  So, I'm very confused about that....  Before that, there were definitely odd times thanks to B waking up motn.  
and orally temping.  

[cbowl]

on ff do you get more open circles if you're not temping to the .00 degree?

Did you add in any other symptoms or secondary signs? Like, a fever or poor sleeping? I think that will also make your circles open. Also, I don't like temping during AF because my temps are all over the place and it makes my chart ugly. You might want to try that next cycle. So, looking at your chart starting on day 6 looks better than the previous 5 days, but that dip is a really, really low temp. I don't get it.

One day might have had disrupted sleep....But, that is a common secondary factor in my charts.  Headache is a common secondary sign as well.

I have no idea about this, tbh. I always do .00 degree because that's what my thermometer shows.

If you're still getting erratic temps, you could try switching to vag temping. Especially if you snore or sleep with your mouth open. But it's more the pattern that you want to try and see, not individual temps.
