Dragonfly- Wisconsin has a mask mandate too however there are a lot of people that don't wear them. (In the case that happened with my daughter's class; the teacher's assistant. She doesn't wear one out in town but only wore one in the classroom.) Also a long history with the assistant she is related to my ex husband through marriage. She also happens to be my sister in law's neighbor.
Alex- we are waiting it out because if I do get her tested, I would have to miss work and I just started. I can't afford to miss.

Hberry I’m hoping for the best for you and your family. Missing work in days like this is not an option unfortunately. I understand!

Alex- we're just trying to catch up on our bills right now especially because my unemployment never came through. We're hoping that my unemployment does hurry up and come through.

Hberry fingers crossed.

Ttc wise I’m somewhere around 8DPO and I feel like it’s been so long since I actually “heard” my body. I have severe boob pain witch is usual for me and some light pre af cramping. I have less than a week since AF and I’m not really expecting much but I caught my self counting this morning. Hopefully in this second quarantine (witch will last a month minimum) I’ll get to relax a bit and get back on track!

How’s everyone else is doing?

Just jumping on here, hoping for a BFP this month. I’m on cycle day 7 and just started using OPK tests. The two trackers I’m using are giving me two different fertile weeks so I’m hoping that gives me a better idea of what’s going on. I feel completely out of touch with my body. Other than being cranky the week before and cramping the day of, I never pay attention to what my body is telling me. I think having an app that tracks everything for me has allowed that, and I’d like to change that. AF is due on Thanksgiving, so I’m hoping I have a lot to be thankful for this time around....

Vintage welcome aboard and hopefully you won’t have to stay for long! Are you trying for your first one?

Hello! New to the boards today. This is my first cycle ttc for #2. My first is going to be 6 in december so it's been quite some time since I had a TWW and I forgot how crazy it can make you feel! I'm 4dpo and wishing I could fast forward time sooooo bad. It doesn't help I found out a sister in law is preggo. We were actually pregnant at the same time with our girls back in 2014. So it's kinda a funky coincidence that she told my mom in law last weekend they're expecting and we just started trying.

Southern hi! Welcome! I love those kinds of coincidences. It would be so interesting if you get your bfp this cycle which I truly hope for you! How long have you tried for your first one?

Not much to report here. Just ovulated, so I'm approx 1 dpo (going by how I usually feel at 1 dpo) but ovulating today according to my monitor. It said high yesterday, but urine were so diluted I took another one with smu that should have been counted as a peak if the monitor could've read it. I trust my bodysigns more than the monitor that have been a day or two off before. So the countdown begins..

I’m trying for my second, but my first is 8 so it’s been awhile! I totally get forgetting how crazy it can make you... and I also just found out my SIL is expecting her first! I would love if we could go through it together. My best friend and I were pregnant at the same time with our firsts and it was so wonderful to share it with someone.
With my first I was so in tune with my body. I took temperatures, filled out charts, measured cervical position, did tests... this time around I’m vaguely aware of when my period is supposed to start, lol. It only took two months to get pregnant with my first, I’m worried being so out of touch means this time will take a lot longer. I feel like I had much more obvious signs and my body is completely different now. It does worry me, even though everyone is telling me it shouldn’t take me too long. I’m only on day 7 of my cycle right now, so I haven’t even gotten to the ‘trying’ part of this month yet and it’s still never far from my mind.
