Software engineering (aka coding)

Oh brilliant. My eldest is in uni doing his degree in something similar.

Yeah he doesn’t have a degree in it, he’s doing a training program that gives you basically a coding boot camp for free then gets you a job with a big company doing it. His degree didn’t pan out for job opportunities unfortunately, but he did take a single coding class in college and his best friend got a job through this company (though he had a degree), so he’s trying it. So far he’s doing well.

BFN today. At least my temp jumped back up. Not feeling super optimistic at this point, but maybe I’ll be pleasantly surprised.

The fact your temp jumped back up is promising. Can you share your chart?

Hey ladies just a update. I'm on cd4 and so far I've had really bad cramps and my lining must have been thick as I've had some big clots. Heavy bleeding too. It hasn't been this bad I a while. My son's 17th bday is this weekend. So praying af slows down. Usually lasts 5 or 6 days so almost done. Have lots to do.

Sounds rough. Enjoy the bday celebrations with your son.

Thanks it will be a blast. He's having a few friends over to spend the night and some family will stop by through out the night. At least I can have a few drinks.

Are you sure you ovulated on the day you think? Looks like you may have ovulated a little later. Your dip could definitely be implantation. Exciting x

I’m pretty sure, I had pain on one side and everything the day after my positive OPK, but I know the temps are a little weird. Apparently it can take a few days for the spike to happen sometimes, I googled it at the time.

 

[3boys]

Yeah

ah ok. I thought you might have been similar to me and ovulated a couple of days after positive opk.

 

[shaescott]

Yeah

Ah yeah I’m pretty consistently 12-36 hours after first positive. That said, my temps and progesterone levels have both been wonky this cycle, so anything is possible. My progesterone level in my urine today is so low I should have gotten my period (my spotting is still super light, definitely no increase), but my temp rebounded perfectly. Like, what? The signs are all over the place, totally inconsistent. I read that being sick could be slowing my metabolism of progesterone resulting in lower urine levels, which seems more likely than a falsely elevated temp considering I didn’t start bleeding significantly, but who the heck knows.

Yeah being sick can definitely mess things up.

Just popping on to say I hope everyone has a lovely Christmas and Happy New Year. I hope you all get your Christmas miracle .

It’s the angel-versary tomorrow of my mums sudden passing. I was about 8 weeks pregnant with my last ever baby. My rainbow baby. A baby she never knew about or met. I’m feeling all the emotions but I have to give my baby the same Christmas cheer and excitement than my older children got. It’s incredibly hard for me at the moment. I just needed to vent.

@Jess0685 and from ours to yours aswell thinking of you xxx

 

[shaescott]

Whelp, I’m out ladies. 12dpo BFN, progesterone still low, spotting increasing, and a bit of a temp dip. Feeling the PMS mood super hard today. Being sent to a quiet hut away from society isn’t sounding so bad today
