Test plans: Friday Morning 12 DPO..Maybe Tomorrow Morning LOL
Symptoms/chart stalks/rants: I didn't temp this cycle just used CM and OPK. I will start temping next cycle if AF comes, due on the 12
GTKY: What is your favorite part of Thanksgiving dinner? My Favorite part is my moms cheddar cheese sauce and pumpkin pie, ok and having the fam together
Symptoms/chart stalks/rants: Had our 1st RE appointment today, we covered a lot of info but glad to have a plan to get started.

TTC #1 January 2009 January 2010 SA results: Count 16 million, Motility 40%, Morphology 2% January 2010- Surprise BFP! DS born 10/1/2010 January 2013 TTC #2 September 2013 Repeat SA: Count= 1.7 million, Motility= 24%, Morphology= 2% November 6th 1st Appointment with RE: diagnosed with severe MFI Testing to try to determine a cause & possible treatment for MFI CD 3 blood work for me. RE does not want to repeat my HSG/lap at this point, but may want to before moving forward with any fertility treatments. After seeing the uro, DH is currently taking lots of supplements and clomid to try to boost his count. We will have a repeat SA in February to see if it works. Follow up SA numbers are: Count= 4 million, Motility= 40%, Morphology= 1% Uro wants us to have another follow up SA 5/9 to see if we see further improvement than we are back to the RE to make a game plan.
SA 5/9/2014 Count: 12 Million, Motility: 60%, and Morphology 2%. We will be doing iui #1 in late June
IUI #1 6/28 clomid + ovidrel, post wash count 3 million total sperm= BFN
IUI # 2 7/21 clomid+ ovidrel. post wash count 900,000 total sperm= BFN
IVF planned for early November- cancelled due to cyst
question for all of you wise ladies: My family lives out of town, and they're coming next month. DH's family lives nearby and we would see them a few times before my family comes to visit, including for thanksgiving. I think it would be really great to tell them at the same time over dinner when my family is here as well, but I have no idea if/how I can hold the news to ourselves that long. It's also my mom's birthday today, which would be so great to tell her then, but I might want to hear the heartbeat first before telling anyone else (which we would most likely be able to do prior to the family all being together in Dec, I think?).
Turthfully, if anything went wrong I would want my mom to comfort me, so for us, we told our parents right away. Even though I lost that pregnancy, it was worth it to tell the parents. PLUS it's her birthday and that would be such and awesome B-Day gift!
For the rest of the family I would wait until heartbeat.

CD/DPO: 23/6 or 8 DPO (missed surge, uncertain of exact O day) - my opks never got darker than control line, but darkest point was CD13, FF predicted CD15. Last cycle was off as I Oed earlier than predicted and only had 12 day lu cycle. I feel like it was likely the earlier of the two. Had EWCM both through entire time period. This is why I will be temping next month.
Timing: good for both possibilities.
Test plans: Friday (10 dpo for first estimation), Sunday (10 dpo for second), Then waiting for AF due on Wed (based purely on FF prediction)
Symptoms/chart stalks/rants: Still sick with cold so I think that is throwing me off as I feel like crap, low cramping (vaginal area), slight extremely heightened sense of smell that I keep noticing, lots of creamy cm. Honestly, until I'm 100% done with this cold, I won't know what is what. I've been feeling sick to my stomach, not hungry and achy as can be - all likely caused by cold. The rest, could be either.
GTKY: What is your favorite part of Thanksgiving dinner? Is it sappy to say family time? Otherwise, I love the turkey and mashed potatoes/gravy.

Test plans: Probably Friday so I can do some guilt-free weekend drinking.
Symptoms/chart stalks/rants: I'm still not sure if/when I O'd. I'm feeling pretty good about CD28 compared to CD20, but my temp shift wasn't huge. And it went below the coverline today. I had to wake up earlier than usual, so I'm hoping it goes back up tomorrow or I might lose my CH's...and my mind.

Mashed potatoes! I also love bread, broccoli casserole, wine, and pie. So, you know, everything.

Symptoms/chart stalks/rants: My chart went triphasic today which has never happened to me before. I am scared shitless over how hopeful I am right now. Fingers crossed for you! AND: thank you, I learned what a triphasic chart is today
Test plans: BFN today :-( (FF said not to test until Nov. 12, but I didn't listen!)
Symptoms/chart
stalks/rants: I have more zit than I have ever had in my life, my boobs hurt, my stomach has been upset, I am exhausted, and my chart looks different than my other two. I know my charts are cray cray and I should temp vaginally, but...it seems like I may have some higher temps the last few days. What do you ladies think?
GTKY: What is your favorite part of Thanksgiving dinner? I love all of it! I am a piggy! My mom's dressing is my favorite thing of all. (With cranberry sauce in a can. I don't like the homemade as much as the stuff that comes out still shaped like the can!)
@MonkeyJD - Congrats! Very clear line on your last test! Yay!!
@summerlovin314 - Congratulations too! We waited until I was 10 wks along but it was really hard. Looking back, I probably should've shared earlier. If you happened to m/c, would you tell them that you did? If you would, then you can probably announce to your families soon but if you would not want them to know or see you go through it, then I would hold off at least til you hear the heartbeat.

Cycle/Month: 3-3
CD/DPO: 17dpo
Timing: great
Test plans: BFN after BFN after BFN...
Symptoms/chart stalks/rants: CRAMPS (AF) related. I'm 3 days late and on CD34! Longest cycle I've ever had. I must be stressing myself out.
GTKY: What is your favorite part of Thanksgiving dinner?
Sweet potatoes with the marshmallow topping!! :P
@iam3jenn Honestly I would maybe even consider that your O was around CD 24... it seems like your clearer temp spikes are all above 97.2(ish).
Even on your last 2 charts I would consider that O could have been CD 28 (August chart) and CD 22 (July chart) which would make your LP before temp drops about 12-13dpo... AND is still consistent with FFs test date of November 12 for this cycle putting you at 12dpo if I'm right.
Maybe I'm way off, but it seems like a pattern and it would suck if you were timing around an incorrect O date. I'm sorry if I made this way too confusing!
Just to update- I took another Wondfo (I'm strong but lets be real) when I got home. It was another squinter, keep everything crossed for a darker line tomorrow, please? We've never had a BFP so I'm pretty nervous!
Ugh! Major temp drop this morning. However, it was a sleepless night, I woke up at 3:50 to temp, and I usually temp at 5:00am. Drop was not below coverline.
@victoria+james That would suck!! DH got sick after what we thought was my O, so we quit HIO since he felt bad and we "thought" we were good to go.
