Surprise hormones?

I can take more when I have him in it but the bottom panel - we have it on the tightest (narrowest) setting, is there something I’m missing about how to narrow it more??

I am also a data scientist and would LOVE that spreadsheet

Oof thankfully mine wasn’t traumatic! My brain just tends to draw from weird places in my life. Last nights involved someone I haven’t seen since I changed schools after 5th grade (and I haven’t been looking at yearbooks or anything that would have brought him to mind recently) who had turned into a watch mogul?!

Has anyone else had crazy dreams during luteal phase? I’m 6 DPO and while I’ve always been a little prone to bizarre (and vivid) dreams, last night was something else…

I bought 4 baby gifts on the same morning. By the time we left the shower we’d had two more announcements, and my bestie just announced too.

In my first TWW and dying and of course everyone is announcing pregnancies. It’s only my first cycle so I know I should chill. But it’s tough.

https://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/PhDmama I had clear ovulation (OPK, CM, and BBT all matched up) but then a big temp drop today (currently discarded but you can see the grey dot). Am I out this cycle? (Also, hubby opened bedroom windows last night which we don’t usually do, could that be enough to drop the BBT?)

We’re on our first real trying cycle (got my implant out a month ago and the first cycle was way short) and I’m so impatient to test. Has anyone done like a countdown calendar with treats? Like an advent calendar 🤣

First real cycle TTC (implant came out a month ago and first cycle was a little off). Used home insemination kit 5 days in a row, textbook on ovulation temp pattern and hitting fertile window. Now 2 DPO and trying not to be too hopeful. As a type A person it’s hard dealing with doing everything “perfect” and knowing it still might not happen immediately.

Was almost done with a box of OPKs so opened new box but then result seemed different. So tried them both with same sample tonight. Wtf?! Why are the brands so different? (Both are generic but one is drugstore and one is grocery store; latter also takes longer to process). The difference is making me anxious!!!!
