Fully wean before vacation or after

My 2 year old has weaned aloooooot the last month and I’m ready to cut the nighttime feed and the couple daytime feeds out. We were all day and all night a few months ago so we have made huge strides.

My question: we are leaving for a weeklong vacation in 7 days. Would it be reasonable to stop right now, have the hard week weaning and then go on vacation or should I just wait until we get back?

Neighbors broken farm tile swamp runs directly on our well

Hi experts. Please don’t scare me. We are having this issue where we have renters next to our house and they have a broken farm tile in front of their house that floods and consistently runs off and directly onto our well. I just had our well tested and we have 11 TC and zero e. Coli…I had it tested after we actually replaced the pump in January and it was 4 TC and 0 e. Coli.

Unfortunately, nobody gives a shit that this is happening. The department of health won’t do anything because it’s not sewage running onto my well. The HOA doesn’t care. And neither does the county. Aside from getting a lawyer we appear to be out of options, but my concern is contamination from their stagnant water.

Please let me know your thoughts or if you have any advice.

Included pictures of the swamp. I did not get a good picture of it Running onto our well, but it does pretty regularly whenever it rains- we have a French drain installed to help with the flooding

Well water testing from kitchen faucet

We had our well pump replaced and tested. E coil negative but TC 4. It’s been 4 months and I wanted to retest and had the department of health do it… he tested it right from the kitchen faucet after using a little alcohol and the TC was 11, e coil negative.

When we initially had the well pump replaced, the guy had been doing it for years and said that our number was pretty close to acceptable limit, and any given time you would test your water, That number might be high ….so he didn’t advise shocking it. The Ohio Department of Health says we probably should shock it based off the 11, but I’m wondering if there’s any problem with his collection from the kitchen sink making the numbers go off?

The more I read the more confused I get. I read that studies show there’s an 8 hour lag on ovulation tests and that once you hit your peak you’re likely ovulated based on research and on and on it goes.

Initially, I had believed you would ideally have sex the day before your line starts turning dark and maybe that day it turns dark and you would typically ovulate that same day. I’m also seeing discrepancy on turning dark vs a true positive- it only matters when your line starts to turn dark versus a true LH positive test, some women will never even get a fully dark positive, but are still ovulating?

Historically I’ve been trying to have sex the day it starts remotely turning dark and the day after.
My tests will typically, for example, be low on Friday, have a first “start to turn dark” on Saturday, be dark on Sunday, still dark on Monday, but then start lightening Tuesday.
How would you handle that?
