TWW thread for the week of 2/2 through 2/8

[lickwed]

Let's go ladies.  This is the place you can talk about all the craziness that comes with the dreaded two week wait.  Phantom symptoms, implantation dips and possible spotting, what you are doing to make the time fly by, and much much more.  Post as often or as little as you want.  We are here for you.  Chart stalks available upon request or if there is a link, we may look just to pass the time or out of curiosity. Gifs are also welcome.

QOTW:  What is the last book you read?

Of course we all just with we could

Stop the Insanity!

Yay! I just posted this over on GKU but happy to go here! Thanks for starting lickwed!

Cycle/Month: 3/3

CD/DPO: 21/5

Timing: Good (EOD during FW)

Testing Plans: FF says Sunday (11DPO base on +OPK). I will be waiting until then.

Rants/raves/chartstalks: My LP has been short the last two cycles and I'm already feeling crampy and having other period symptoms so I'm not too optimistic. Still haven't completely weaned and I've pretty much convinced myself that it won't happen until I do. We shall see.

GTKY? You didn't post one so I will take the liberty. I think I saw this on GKU over the weekend but I'm going to repeat here because I need some book suggestions. What is the last book you read? I recently finished Station Eleven and loved it. I have a thing for apocalypse books.

And in honor of Groundhog Day:

Officially in the TWW as of Saturday I think. I have not tracked due to this being my iui cycle but I'll be going in tomorrow to confirm O with an u/s and blood draw. Testing will be Feb. 11.

I was oddly crampy this morning. Too late for O, too early for implementation. Just the crazy over analyzing. It was probably the poor choice in partaking in the velveeta dip during the Super Bowl.

I might be in the TWW but it's not clear this month, thanks to an ill timed strep throat!! Ugh! I woke up Sat am with temp over 99 and sore throat. Since then have had no fever, but my morning temps have been high for me. I'm usually around 97.2 pre-O and since Sat I've been around 98, but no fever on normal thermometer during the day at all.
I marked two days as fever on FF, but not really sure if fever or just post O. Today I entered as if no fever but not sure if that's right either (just got throat future not on meds yet). Ugh!
My recent O day has been CD 18, I'm on 16 now...but I've thought some were really CD 16 in past. So...who knows! I managed a bd yesterday so maybe that'll do it. I don't think knowing I have strep will help me get any now, ha! Damn sickness! What terrible timing!! Sorry for the AW, but I'm so annoyed and frustrated!
I'd link my chart but am too dumb to figure it out....

Thanks octavia65 I didn't think to put one in because it would be up all week, but that is a great idea.  I guess if you answer the question the first time, you don't need to answer it if you post again.  I will include one in next weeks, and edited to add this to it.

lickwed - Ahhhh didn't think of that! No worries either way - I'm new so would love to get to know all the ladies on here but doesn't have to be a specific question.

wannabmama - Sorry about the sickness messing up your timing. So frustrating. We have all had so many colds this season...ready for all the germs to go away.

boobacat - Didn't think about cramping being related to Super Bowl food but I did eat a lot of wings. Maybe that explains it

DPO/CD: 10/28

“Good” timing per FF, which also says to test on Thurs but I’ll probably wait until Friday. (I say that now … we’ll see how the week goes)

I was pretty sure I had a successful cycle in September and was (obviously) wrong so I am not sure what to think right now. My acupuncturist was excited with my progress and my later (potential) O date. I guess I have some “symptoms” (gassy, fatigue, sore boobs) but ever since my MMC, my PMS symptoms mimic those from my successful cycle. Not too much further to wait so time really will tell.

I started to read The Passage what feels like 100 years ago. Initially, I was going to start over at the most recent section but I might have to go to the beginning (ugh). I have a lot of other books in my GoodReads list so maybe I’ll switch genres and come back to it later & start fresh.

FX for all of us!!

Okay, I got cross hairs today. According to FF I am 3 DPO although it won't make them solid just dotted. Its probably because I wasn't checking CM as we are NTNP. The only thing I am really looking at is my post O temps. The first few cycles after my loss with a D&C they were below where they were with my BFP cycle. The next time I got a BFP was after my post O temps were back where they were when I got a BFP. I am interested to see if it takes another few cycles for the temps to go up or if they will go up right away since I used meds with this loss. The bad thing is CD1 will come around Valentine's Day. Poor DH. Guess he will have to settle for a Blowing Times Day. Not expecting anything, just waiting for my results from the blood testing they did. Hope I know something by the end of the week and if there is something wrong, it is something treatable.

QOTW: I just finished Outlander and want to start on the second one, although I'm not sure if I am emotionally ready to deal with some of the events that take place in the book.
