@doggylover I completely agree! March-May we had virtual schooling...June was spent with as much time outside as possible. But July? It's been miserable and we won't hit the peak of the heat until the end of August/beginning of September. We are looking at getting a swing set to hopefully be able to get 10 quick minutes throughout the day to run outside to swing and slide and then come back in before we get too hot. Less than a month until school starts and that will be a big help too!! Enjoy the time with your in laws!! I'm heading into my parents for possibly the last trip we will see them until the end of winter break (my mom is a preschool teacher....trying to convince her to not go back this fall).
@Stargirl1993 I'm planning on OPKs, temping and using pre-seed. Since turning 30, I haven't had the CM that I used to so I'm hoping it helps!!
@Alligator but if you have cheapies available..... lol. i'm a POAS enabler. I just get the itch to pee on something and even knowing it will be negative, it lets me not stress about it for another day or two! So hopeful for you for this cycle!!
@Danizzychar wow! that's a crazy difference!!

AFM, let my boys play lego video games for a couple hours this afternoon so I could work more on getting our playroom converted into a homeschool room. I think the last thing I need to do for the closet (which is now a school/craft closet rather than a pile of storage) is bring a bookcase down and get our school books put on it. Then I can start "phase 2" of rearranging the room itself and getting some new posters hung up! My goal was to be done the end of July and nearly there! It's been a blessing having this come together when it did because it's a nice distraction from trying!!
Hey ladies , I’m going to jump over here from the July thread. I tested yesterday 9dpo and though I spotted something , took another this morning and same vvvvvvfl. I’m driving myself mad so I’m not testing again until af is due on the 2nd
Top 3 are from 9dpo and bottom is 10 dpo...

Totally understand needing to step back from the intensity that TTC can become. Have you thought about going to the doctors to see if there are any fertility treatments they think could help?
It can be yes. Hoping it doesn’t get too bad for you xxThis period seems to be very heavy? I’m guessing it’s normal first period after a miscarriage? x
My first one after my mc was awful, really painful aswell. Hopefully it eases for you soon xThis period seems to be very heavy? I’m guessing it’s normal first period after a miscarriage? x
Hi ladies,
hope everyone is well!
I’m 4dpo today and no symptoms yet I don’t think except I am soooo tired! I didn’t wake up til 9.30am today which is really unlike me
I’ve also decided to stop temping because all though my chart looks textbook I’m starting to obsess over it and I’m terrified of seeing temp drops and misinterpreting what I’m seeing etc it’s just stressing me out so I’m future I’ll temp to confirm O along with OPKs and leave it from there and see what happens!
baby dust to all

@doggylover im butting into this conversation- I’m a teacher in the US. Most every district is giving families an online option if they aren’t fully virtual. My district is going full time in person but with the virtual option for parents to choose. I’m really upset about this because our area is getting significantly worse. I am not comfortable being a guinea pig in this COVID experiment of fully opening schools. I was hoping to be pregnant by the time school started back up so I could maybe convince them that I need to be a virtual teacher. Ha!
Covid has us stressed. My dad's an over the road trucker and won't see us, my sister in law contracted it working at a nursing home and currently in hospital, my friend's who son does our yardwork & hung out this weekend had his football team suspended because the boy who gives him rides tested positive. My friend had a 4 week old and pulling her hair out. I'm so over this pandemic.
Sorry, I have kept that bottled up in RL because I've been terrified of the pandemic since early days and everyone around me is anti-mask/refuse to social distance.

I slept like crap, tossed and turned all night. I expected my temp to be high, but it actually dropped...? It's hovering my coverline.
@tbfromlv it’s crazy that anyone is even talking about opening schools... when we decided to close them all in March and the only thing that’s different now is that Covid has gotten WORSE, not better! We just got the email that school will be virtual until at least November 4 (my son is entering kindergarten and my daughter is entering 3rd grade), and I’m certain it’ll be longer (until January at least but likely the whole year). This pandemic can suck it. It’s absolutely relentless and so stressful. My husband is a bar manager and the place was pretty much the most successful, popular place in the city and now it’s been closed since March 17. No hope of reopening any time soon. And I get the reasoning but even with unemployment there’s only so long we can go without income. It’s terrible, it just is going on and on and on isn’t it. However I have loved having my husband home (don’t know what I’ll do when he finally does go back to work, I’ll miss him horribly!) and I do love having the opportunity to homeschool the kids because I love having the whole family home. Avoiding head lice and cold and flu season will be a major bonus, too!!
Sorry I won’t be able to respond to everyone a lot, we are finally visiting family in California that we haven’t seen since Christmas. And who knows when we’ll see them again!
I think I am ovulating earlier than I have been which is great. CD13 today and getting tons of ewcm, which I’ve been getting since cd10. Hoping to get in some time with dh tonight, it’s tricky staying with family but we’re on a mission haha.
good luck everyone!
