Ugh, my blood pressure still has not recovered from my team's Sweet 16 game. Sigh, no Elite 8 for us

Sorry your team didn't get to move on. What kind of game was it? Whatever it was, it sounds like it was intense!!

The NCAA men's basketball tournament - March Madness!

Oh, duh! For some reason when I read it I though it was a game you were playing in!

scoutradley - Ugh, I hope the Tylenol kicks in/kicked in quickly and that you are all able to get some good sleep tonight!

Thanks. It took awhile but they finally slept. Then DS2 woke up super early. I'm so tired lol.

We are taking DD to a drop in daycare tonight and going to go see Beauty and the Beast. I am really looking forward to the child free time...it has been a long week.

It's already almost 11 and I have to be up at 5:30 tomorrow for work. Instead of going to bed like a sane person would, I just went out for ice cream and I'm netflix binging *sigh*

FF question: didn't someone mention that FF predicts the earliest day you can test and get a BFP? I'm not seeing that any where on the app. Am I imagining this?

I am pretty sure they don't do that. They do tell you a recommended testing date that is usually a day after AF is expected and they warn against testing before that. Each day after about 9 DPO they do give a percentage for each day as to how many positive tests are reported by that DPO.

Okay, so I did imagine it. I didn't know that about the DPO percentage though. I'm new to FF. Thanks!

Hey y'all! I helped my friend paint her new house tonight and she treated me to Indian takeout. It was SO good. Chicken tikka masala & lamb biryani. It was amazing.

I did not know about the dpo test percentage either? Where would I find that? daisy818 and yes they suggest a test date 1+ days after they would predict AF.

During your LP, there is an analysis tool called Pregnancy Monitor - it suggests a test date and also gives you the Pregnancy Test Probability for whatever your DPO is that day (in addition to several other things).  This might just be a VIP feature on FF, I'm not sure.

Ok ya I forgot to ask if you had VIP. Yes the pregnancy monitor is a VIP perk.

Ah, I see.  I just realized it's almost time for me to get my third year-long VIP subscription.  Sad.

Hugs daisy818 I'm trying to decide if I actually want to pay for one.

I like the features, plus it gives me something to play around with.  I think you can try a free trial and they usually have discounted rates (I've heard that on Twitter they will sometimes also have codes to get a free month or something like that).  I especially like the chart overlay, which is great for comparing multiple cycles at once (usually I use it to see if my temp is really staying elevated longer than on prior cycles - I use that as my basis for whether to take a HPT or not.  Although I'll be honest, at first I only bought the 90 day package because I was super sure I'd be KU within 3 months. It's a bit more expensive per month, but it's a good way to see if it's something that you'd like to use (and hopefully you'll never need to look into an annual plan!)
