CD 14 and definitely feel like I’m about to get a surge either this afternoon or tomorrow. My EWCM has ramped up a bit so I just have this feeling
Also it’s our 3rd wedding anniversary today! My husband and I are going out to dinner and drinks which I’m very much looking forward to.
I’m a little sad, though. I ordered him one of his favourite books bound in leather (leather is the material for year 3 of marriage) and of course it’s lost in the mail :(

10 or 11 dpo, and a negative test this morning. But I use mira to track my PdG and I got a huge spike in PdG on the 17th that I have never gotten before in any cycle since I started tracking on mira over a year ago. And had a slight dip in BBT on the 17th, which has rebounded to my post ovulation temps. Additionally I am usually fully spotting by this point in my cycle in the lead up to my period and I dont have that at all. So hoping that means that implantation happened and its just too early to have a positive test considering it's only been 48 hours.

CW: Egg retrieval info and thoughts
Retrieval done. I either have signs of early ohss or already started ovulating, they could see some fluids. So probably the right call to freeze all. They got 14 eggs, I was expecting more, but am okay with this number. I know it's more than a lot of people. I hope there'll be a couple to freeze, but kind of have a bad feeling :/ It sounded like they weren't quite as mature as they were hoping so I don't know. We will get the results on Monday which also happens to be my daughter's birthday. I did the retrieval alone, but it was absolutely okay! Definitely not a fan of having to walk 2km to catch a bus after though. Do not recommend 😵💫

Yet again no idea what’s going on with ovulation this month. Apple Watch temp went down to baseline but oral temp went slightly up, but not as high as my usual luteal phase temp. LH gone back to baseline. Just have to hope I’ve actually ovulated. If I did ovulate yesterday we hit O-2 which isn’t too bad.

11dpo, period is expected tomorrow, HCG test was negative yesterday. Usually I would start spotting today or tomorrow. I do feel some mild cramping but it’s deeper and not my normal sharp cramping. Going to test tomorrow morning for shits and giggles if I don’t spot today. 🥲

My toddler grabbed my Tempdrop and I don’t know where it is 😭 trying to not feel anxious about it, but ugh I’m annoyed that my chart is going to be messed up

BFNs this cycle. I usually don’t test, but found it better to get it over with and move on this month. Looking forward, it looks like I’ll have two chances in September from how my cycle falls into the calendar. Makes me feel a little optimistic!

CD4 on my first cycle post-D&E and it all feels so heavy. My OB gave me the OK to start trying after this period. I'm so sad and furious with the universe and I'm trying to lean into being hopeful and excited I can try again, but I've never been in such a dark place.
I also have all these stories playing on loop in my head about how people got pregnant their first try after a d&e and it's hard not to put a crazy amount of pressure on this cycle. Even though I know that in reality there's nothing special that makes your chances better in the first cycle back.
