~Team green turned Blue on 4/6/14~
Cycle/Month: 12
CD/DPO: 22/ 3-9 DPO?
Timing: ??
Testing plans: nothing unless either 1) my temp goes above 98.6 (my usual highest) or 2) my period is late
Symptoms: is being ultra-!itchy a symptom? I don't even want to be around me this morning...talk about getting up on the wrong side of the bed!
Thoughts/Rants/Chart Stalks: FF didn't give me CH's today - I was expecting them, maybe dotted since temp shift didn't match OPKs. I even put in a few dummy temps for the next few days, and nothing. I guess I'm still going to assume I O'd some time last week
GTKY: What is your signature dish/the best thing you can cook? meatloaf! I know, it doesn't sound appetizing, but I make my own BBQ sauce, and that makes it worth it. I'm also really good at burgers, but I think that's more the cookbook I have rather than my talent

CD/DPO:14/1
Timing:pretty good

Thoughts/Rants/Chart Stalks: nothing here
GTKY: What is your signature dish/the best thing you can cook? It is not very complicated but chicken marsala with mushroom risotto. It is my standard "company" meal when we have people over.
Cycle/Month: 1/1
CD/DPO: 26/12DPO
Timing: Good
Testing plans: tested again this morning and got another bfn.
Symptoms: cramping that feels more like AF is on her way.
Thoughts/Rants/Chart Stalks: being our first cycle "trying", i didn't realize how disappointing it is to see bfn's over and over. i am not sure i will test as early (before missed AF) next cycle.

Good Morning Ladies!
Cycle/Month:1/1
CD/DPO: 23/9
Timing: IUI on O
Testing plans: BFN this morning.
Symptoms: super nauseous (from the progesterone I believe....in fact any weirdness is it's fault) and lost about 5.5 lbs since the IUI, wicked wicked cramps two days ago that kept me up all night . Mainly just tired out and hating the wait
Thoughts/Rants/Chart Stalks: Just anxious over the progesterone affecting the temps. Today is my highest temp so far so hopefully soon I'll see something. Thoughts are always welcome.
GTKY: What is your signature dish/the best thing you can cook? We made the switch to paleo recently so all my best dishes are now out, in their place I am mastering some amazing faux-tatoes and some bomb brocc-iflower bacon soup.me:33 my wife:32 married in June '12

Testing plans: try to hold out to 12dpo if I can. Usually I breakdown and test at 10dpo with bfn ofcourse.
Symptoms: really sore boobs but this always happens post O. Nausea this morning.
Thoughts/Rants/Chart Stalks: ugh this was the first month I showed a fall back pattern. FF seemed to take it into account and still give me crosshairs but it makes my chart look so ugly.
GTKY:nbsp; What is your signature dish/the best thing you can cook? I make some really good pancakes and my grandmas macaronni and cheese!
I think I agree with FF. temps have been above coverline. And from what I understand, it is not unheard of to O on the same day as a + OPK. In fact, I believe that happened to me this cycle as well. GL!
Based on temps I agree also, but I got a + opk AFTER I O'd. Does that happen? I've O'd on the day I got a positive before, but never the day before a positive.

Thoughts/Rants/Chart Stalks: My temping is finally up in the 98's instead of 97's!

I make a mean lobster mac & cheese and I also make great risotto.
Happy Thursday!

CD/DPO: 34/14
Timing: not good enough
Testing plans: not going to test
Symptoms: Feels like AF is on the way, no spotting yet but I think it'll be here tomorrow
Thoughts/Rants/Chart Stalks: Third temp drop today, was hoping it would be heading back up this morning to keep me in the game this month, but apparently not, AF should be here soon
GTKY: What is your signature dish/the best thing you can cook? I'd have to say my lasagna, not a whole lot of dishes I've really perfected but I've definetly made lasagna my own!

Cycle/Month: 3 / 5
CD/DPO: 47 / 8
Timing: O, O+1, O+2
Testing plans: January 18, if I make it that long!
Symptoms: None

GTKY: What is your signature dish/the best thing you can cook? I make an awesome homemade spaghetti.Cycle/Month: 1/1
CD/DPO: 43/??
Timing: hard to tell since my cycle is so long and I wasn't temping
Testing plans: BFN on CD 33, 36, and 40. I will probably test again tomorrow and every 3-4 days. I know they say test 1x per week, but it's worth the cost of a cheap test for me to keep POAS.
Symptoms: I had cramping that I was sure was the harbinger of AF a couple days ago, but nothing yet.
Thoughts/Rants/Chart Stalks: Just annoyed with my long cycle. I am ready for cycle 2 to start so I can at least temp and have a clue what might be going on.
GTKY: What is your signature dish/the best thing you can cook? Pasties (short a, not the stripper nipple covers). They are like pies filled with meat, potatoes, carrots, and onion. It's one of those family recipes passed down from Grandma. They are so good smothered in ketchup and butter.
ETA: grammar
I thought it was odd too. It doesn't make sense to me.

Timing: O-3,O,O+1
Testing plans: FF still says 24th, so I'm still going to go with that
Symptoms: None
Thoughts/Rants/Chart Stalks: HUGE temp spike today. I marked it as sleep deprived though, because Mandie woke us up at 4 to go outside and I didn't fall right back to sleep (argued with DH over whose turn it was). I should've just taken my temp then (I usually temp at 5) but I was hoping to avoid an open circle since my chart has been so pretty, if I do say so myself. Either way, big fat open circle.
GTKY: What is your signature dish/the best thing you can cook? Chicken pot pie. I also make bomb cheddar alfredo butter mashed potatoes.

GTKY: What is your signature dish/the best thing you can cook? I mostly love to bake and really don't have a signature dish yet, a go to for me though is chicken teriyaki stirfry.
