@JL I'm jealous, I'm still EBF but got my period back at 10 weeks post, so must have ovulated at 8 weeks post partum even though my boy was feeding EVERY HOUR day and bloody night, I felt so cheated, but it's worked out for us. We waited until he was 8/9 month so that I can continue to feed him until he's 1 before my supply takes a pregnancy hit! Good luck with getting a BFP :) I'll be eagerly keeping an eye out for you!

11 do and 11 days since IUI I have mild cramping. Trying to resist buying a preggo test

I'm CD 4 and hate the wait lol. I'm restless and bored. I need a hobby to keep me busy. I'm job hunting at the moment. Maybe a good job will come along and I can dive into it to help distract me. I can't think of much else. Maybe start writing. I always say I will, but never get round to doing it

@Mat try crocheting! Thats what I've done and boy does it KILL time, plus I've learnt to make some cute hats for my little boy and I've made a baby blanket for the next one!

@matarick, I'm CD3 right behind you. I think focusing on myself has helped. My SO and I even just went for a walk around the neighbor hood and it was nice to get out and work on us. I've decided to write in a journal as well to track my progress.

@trying Welcome! Fingers crossed for your BFP this cycle!
@shanta that is a good sign. Can’t wait for you to test!
@bug and matarik Hats off to you ladies for focusing on some self care.
AFM I made the mistake of going out last night. First time since last October. It was my estimated ovulation day, and I drank too much to even bother temping. It wouldn’t have been accurate. So I won’t know if I actually ovulated or not until I temp tomorrow and hopefully see a significant rise. So fingers crossed!!!

I do adult coloring..lol

@shanta... me too!!!

Adult coloring is so relaxing!

Do you ladies count ovulation day as your peak/surge day, the day after the LH surge, or the second day after the LH surge?
I had 3-4 days of left sided ovulation cramping, which is typical for me, but I am not sure what day to count as my ovulation day because of how long I have cramping.
