What are you doing to get pregnant? The usual.
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: I have questions. And I don't want to post new discussions with things I should probably know. So, how long should I wait before taking my PNV if I'm having coffee in the morning with breakfast?? And, is WebMD's information regarding having more than 2 drinks being considered "moderate" alcohol consumption really linked to a 60 % reduction in fertility? Ahhhh, thanks if anyone can answer this.

What are you doing to get pregnant? temping, waiting out AF
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: opks should come in today, going to try them out next week
GTKY -- What do you prefer, beach, pool, or the mountains? And why? I grew up on the beach so have always kind of taken it for granted so I guess I prefer the mountains. They are so beautiful to this flatlander!

What are you doing to get pregnant? waiting out AF at the moment
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: Nothing really to report here! Hoping to relax more this cycle. We will be traveling to Europe during my FW so hopefully we get lucky with some vacation sex!
GTKY -- What do you prefer, beach, pool, or the mountains? And why? The beach. Always the beach! I love love love the sand, the waves, the sun. Everything. I like the peacefulness. Luckily we get to go every year. It is my favorite week of the year

What are you doing to get pregnant: Nothing unusual
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: Nothing to complain about, it's almost weekend
GTKY -- What do you prefer, beach, pool, or the mountains? And why? I love the nature in general, but there is just something magical about the beach and waves! to me it is the most soothing sound in the world.

What are you doing to get pregnant? Nothing yet
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: Just got Wondfo package in the mail, it's like Christmas morning
GTKY -- What do you prefer, beach, pool, or the mountains? And why? Beach. I love camping on the beach, bonfires, sand, and sun. Not so much the sand in the butt crack...

What are you doing to get pregnant? Stuff
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: Didn't get a temp this morning as I was up sick on the couch all night with diarrhea and a migraine. Happy Friday.
GTKY -- What do you prefer, beach, pool, or the mountains? And why? It's a tough call but I'd say mountain/lake. I love being on a boat surrounded by mountains and it's something I've done with my family all my life. I like to water ski and kayak too.

What are you doing to get pregnant?: The OPKs I ordered are coming today, so I'll probably start peeing on those this weekend.
Rants/raves/chartstalks: It's Friday, so no.
GTKY: I seem to have the UO on this. I LOVE the mountains. I really hate the beach (sand. everywhere. Big ole nopetopus on that) but DH is a water rat so I suck it up and go every once in a while. My favorite is canoeing in the middle of nowhere. I'm getting DH canoe chairs for his birthday so we can stay out longer without my butt falling asleep...

What are you doing to get pregnant? Sex, temping, charting, preseed
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: My chart is messed up because I missed my temp on CD13 but I had EWCM for a few days and a +OPK and temp spike on CD14 so I think I O'd or will today. Had good timing thus far, was out of town last night so will HIO one last time tonight and hope for CH's soon.
GTKY -- What do you prefer, beach, pool, or the mountains? And why? BEACH!! We are boat people and spend as much time on the water and the beach as we can in the summer. My profile pic is our boat slip number at the marina.

I hadn't heard the absorption of iron, but so check to see if your pnv has iron at all. Many of the gummies don't. Iron isn't super important now, but will be once you actually get pregnant. Good to check though.

What are you doing to get pregnant? Everything.
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: I got CH this morning, it seems SUPER early. My last cycles have been 61, 39, and 28. The 28 day cycle was when I first stopped BC. Than it was 39 and 61. My cycles before the pill were also irregular but never less than 35. I guess I just need someone to say "yes dummy, you ovulated, now go to TWW" here is my chart. Someone reassure me? All my temps were taken at different times because toddlers are crazy and don't always sleep through the night.

GTKY -- What do you prefer, beach, pool, or the mountains? And why? Beach or pool. I love the water. When I was pregnant we had an older lady as a neighbor who was terrified I was going to give birth in the pool since I was in it all the time. My avatar picture is the beach at our resort in Jamaica from our honeymoon.
@holly628 another vote for PNV before bed. That way nothing is interfering with it!

What are you doing to get pregnant?: bbt, CM, sex, green tea
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: All this talk about vitamins made me realize I've been forgetting to take mine recently! Oops.
GTKY -- What do you prefer, beach, pool, or the mountains? And why?: Beach!! I just love the ocean. I could sit on the beach for hours because it's so relaxing.

What are you doing to get pregnant? Waiting for AF to end. Going in to see the RE today for my CD 3 sono (since CD 3 is tomorrow), then will start Clomid this cycle with an Ovidrel injection to O.
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: Feeling really nervous about taking Clomid and giving myself an injection to O. RE thinks I have a slight ovulation defect, hence the need for the Clomid but I'm unsure why I need the trigger (will find out today). I'm assuming because I O late and have a short luteal phase, the trigger will give them a better time frame in which I O so they can give me progesterone if needed. Wish me luck!
GTKY -- What do you prefer, beach, pool, or the mountains? And why? Beach, beach, beach. But, I hate going in the ocean. I just like to look at it.

What are you doing to get pregnant? temping, OPKs, prenatal, sex
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: I've had a steady temp rise the past 2 days so DH is having a blast getting laid.
GTKY -- What do you prefer, beach, pool, or the mountains? And why? Beach all day everyday. So relaxing and beautiful!

What are you doing to get pregnant? PNV, watching CM, and sex
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: Wanted to do the first cycle just based off of CM so I'm guessing that I haven't O, because I have yet to see any EWCM, but then again who knows? If nothing happens this cycle I will buying some OPKs!
GTKY -- What do you prefer, beach, pool, or the mountains? And why? Definitely the beach and mountains! I love both! I only live about 20 minutes from the beach, but I love going to the mountains in the fall.
CD: 49
What are you doing to get pregnant? Gaining weight, Temping, PNV, EOD/ED Sex
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: Appointment with OB/GYN went really well yesterday. She said she is almost certain that other than coming off the pill the reason I haven't ovulated yet is my low BMI - so as much as I love to work out and eat healthy it's time to up the calories and add in some rest days from the gym.
GTKY -- What do you prefer, beach, pool, or the mountains? And why? Pool where you can see the ocean! All of the benefits of the ocean minus the sand.
@nittanyllama hope you feel better!
@Bee1112 I think I would be suspicious too, given your previous cycles. One time fertility friend gave me CH for CD 12, I didn't trust it so I kept temping, waited it out, had sex EOD just in case and it took them back several days later. I went on to ovulate on my usual day of CD 20. I hope your cycle isn't so long this time though!
Cycle/Month: 3AL/5 months total
CD: 15
What are you doing to get pregnant?: Finally in my fertile window! Yay. Five days until O! (probably anyway) So I'll start OPKs today, ED sex with pre-seed starting tonight, and continue my PNVs and temping.
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: No! Don't look at my chart! It isn't ready yet! Also, going on vacation to Tennessee to see family tomorrow. Which reminds me, I might not get to be on much. I've been told there isn't internet at the cabin. I think they are lying to me but we'll see...
GTKY -- Can I be a special snowflake? I don't really dig any of those options. I don't swim well so the ocean although lovely, sort of freaks me out. Same problem with pools, too tall for the shallow side and don't swim well enough for the deep end. Mountains are pretty but I can totally look at them in pictures without all that hiking jazz. I'm from Missouri and we love the forest. I'll take a good old Missouri creek or river any day. The water is clear and awesome!

What are you doing to get pregnant? The norms and added green tea into the mix.
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: Raves-getting creative sneaking sexy time in after bedtime since we are watching my nieces for a month. It's adding some excitement in and we are trying new rooms of the house! (baby is sleeping in our room) Rants-Monitor is on day 9 of high fertility. Come on peak! But we have managed a lot of sex this month so that is pretty awesome! I should have known my O would not be before CD 16!
GTKY -- What do you prefer, beach, pool, or the mountains? And why? The pool!!!! No animals to bite you (I have been bit by a fish and stung by a jelly fish)! I am not the hike for fun kind of girl so the mountains sound terrible!

What are you doing to get pregnant? usual stuff
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: just hoping this cycle will be shorter than the last one of 47 freaking days
GTKY -- What do you prefer, beach, pool, or the mountains? And why? Mountains all the way. Wonderful memories of going to my cousin's cabin in CO every year for the 4th of July. Also if I am traveling during the summer, I would rather go somewhere cooler (mountains), not the same temp or hotter (beach).

What are you doing to get pregnant? Temping and will start OPK's tomorrow or Sunday and ED sex starting Sunday
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: I can't find the regular CB digital OPK's All I have seen are the advanced one's and they are SUPER expensive 10 tests are $46 WTH were are the regular one's that were $26 very frustrating
GTKY -- What do you prefer, beach, pool, or the mountains? And why? I prefer the pool. Even though the beach is pretty I can't stand the sand getting everywhere and the mountains are not even an option for me.

What are you doing to get pregnant? sex, pnv, opk
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: I am getting really discouraged with ttgp. It took 14 months to get ktfu and one miscarriage and I was really hoping it wouldn't take that long for #2. ugh!
GTKY -- What do you prefer, beach, pool, or the mountains? And why? beach and pool. I love the sun and water!!!!

What are you doing to get pregnant? BBT, PNV, raspberry leaf, EOD sex
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: I think I am going to O soon! My OPK was discouraging tonight though- it had a line (still negative) this morning and now it is stark white. I will try again in the morning (and maybe later tonight if I feel like it).
GTKY -- What do you prefer, beach, pool, or the mountains? And why? Love all of them- but probably the beach! DH is not a beach person but I am trying to get him to take a trip to the Outer Banks with me.
