I was under the influence of many drugs yesterday (no more wisdom teeth!), so I was not around to start this on time. Here we are, a day late.

Age of LO(s): 2yo
Month/Cycle: 7/6
CD/DPO: 21/--
RRCS: I had a high temp Monday, but I woke up late, so it could have been that. Or maybe I've ovulated. I don't know. I haven't temped the last 2 days. I'll see where I am once I'm done with all these meds and maybe pee on an OPK tomorrow. I have a doctors appointment Monday to chat about the state of my ute.
GTKY: What are you most looking forward to this summer?
MH surprised me with a trip to Chicago in August! We just got back from a vacation, so I had nothing on my radar and he came out of nowhere booking flights, hotels, and babysitters all on his own. I don't know who this man is or what he did with MH, but I'm letting him stay.

RRCS: I think it's prob time to start getting frisky but the OPKs don't seem to agree... i feel like my cycles are getting weirder. I'm still nursing and we just aren't ready to stop yet, but Idk if that's messing with things.
GTKY: What are you most looking forward to this summer? We are going to my parents beach house for like a month. I'm very excited.

RRCS: Just waiting for now. I know from tracking my cycle for years that I'm due to ovulate the exact same date this month that I did when DD was conceived. That's totally crazy to me.
GTKY: We are vacationing in San Diego this summer and I have never been. Looking forward to checking out the zoo with the kids! ☺️

Age of LO(s): 20 months Month/Cycle: 10/10 CD/DPO: cd 8 RRCS: As each cycle comes and goes I just stress more and more. Since I want to be very proactive I need to think about getting appointments on the books with my midwife and then an RE for when we hit the 1 yr mark. GTKY: What are you most looking forward to this summer? At the moment, nothing? No vacation planned because H is working too hard, I also never thought I'd get to summer and not be pregnant yet so I'm a super downer lately. cinnamon, how fun! My parents grew up in SD and all my extended family was there so we made multiple trips a year... it was always my second home. It's a great family destination - you'll have a blast  Check out Coronado Island if you have the time, it's my fav! |

Month/Cycle: 4/4
CD/DPO: cd24/ No clue. I haven't temped this cycle because we were out of town for two weeks.
RRCS: I think this next cycle we should have DH's sperm count back to normal. I'm still annoyed at the stupid gp doctor for giving DH testosterone shots when we told him we were ttc.
GTKY: What are you most looking forward to this summer? Going to VA for a couple of weeks to see my family and throw my sister a baby shower.

Canoeing. We haven't been since 2014 when I got pregnant with DS. He's 2 now so he can come too (with a life jacket of course and the water is maybe 3 ft deep in most spots)
We also want to go somewhere for vacation in July. But haven't decided where yet. I'm thinking maybe Tennessee.

GTKY: What are you most looking forward to this summer? We're renting a giant house on the beach with some out of town friends in August. It'll be 6 adults and 3 toddlers so it should be interesting!

We are going to a wedding in Minnesota this weekend when I'll be ovulating, and we conceived DS last time we were in Minnesota for a wedding. So of course I have my hopes on something magic about Minnesota and my uterus. |

RRCS: Almost definitely in the fertile window. Trying to stay cool.
GTKY: What are you most looking forward to this summer? A weekend in wine country with a big group of friends while the baby stays with grandma. While of course I'd love to get pregnant now, there is a silver lining in not getting knocked up before that.
Jealous of all the people going to beach houses!

RRCS: Just finishing up my first period after my early loss. As long as things go as they normally do I should O before H heads back out of the country and we are apart for 3 weeks. So glad we won't miss this opportunity.
GTKY: What are you most looking forward to this summer? For me it's just the time I get to spend in the states. It's so nice to be "normal" for a few months.

GTKY: What are you most looking forward to this summer? Getting KU? Water table fun, hate being cooped up in the winter.

auri We anchor just off the shore of a National Park. I grew up doing it so I do it with DD now. Having her on the water all the time terrifies me (she can't swim without a life jacket) but once I am past the fear we have a great time just being away from civilization!

RRCS: We only hit -3 because of a busy weekend and hosting family during FW. So I don't have much hope for this cycle. I doubt I'll test and just get geared up for next cycle. I Oed on CD19 this cycle though. So that's an improvement.
GTKY: What are you most looking forward to this summer? I'm actually looking forward to the end of summer the most. DD1 starts kindergarten this year and I am so. excited.

So I get you on not even getting to the testing point before you know you're out. It sucks! Especially when you O later too. It's like ok, guess I'll just go back to waiting. I hope yours is longer this cycle. |

Sounds like I need to make it a must-see! Is it something that we could do with the kids? Definitely kid friendly! Depending on where your staying and if you'll have a car, you can drive over the bridge or take the ferry across (which leaves from downtown). Coronado is super walkable, the downtown area is cute with little shops and restaurants (and a yummy ice cream place), and there are pretty, clean beaches. Also fun to rent surreys (you know, those golf cart looking bikes) and ride around - also kid friendly eta: clarity |

I must know more...What do you do with your days while on (or off) the boat? Do you have a partner that's staying with you or is it just you and your DD? |

Thanks for starting imapenguin. I hope the missing wisdom teeth don't hurt too much and that you have good drugs. sammysam, I have all the questions about the boat too. It sounds amazing! Do you drive the boat places during the day? Do you hook up to a septic and all that? Age of LO: 16 months Month/Cycle: 1/1 CD/DPO: 17 RRCS: I'm not temping but based on CM I think I may ovulate soon. Timing has not been good, it feels like a sort of half hearted attempt this month. GTKY: Visiting my in-laws lake cabin. We've never been there but we're planning to spend almost a week. They have all kinds of boats and drinks, and they'll be happy to entertain the toddler for awhile. |

Check out Coronado Island if you have the time, it's my fav!
