Re: ~*Waiting to O Monday*~
CD: 17
Rants/Chart Stalks: Thinking that maybe today is O day? CD17 is "normal" for me, but CBE Advanced OPK does not match. I got peak CD13. Guess I have to wait 3 days to see what my temps do.
What are you doing to get KU? OPK, EOD in FW, PNV, BBT
GTKY: Do you make New Year's Resolutions? If so, how long do you usually keep them?
I quit making them because I ended up breaking them within a month. Now, if I want to improve myself, I don't do it around New Year's. (And I still have a hard time sticking to it.)
Cycle/Month: 2/1
CD: CD1
Rants/Chart Stalks: Ok this is the cycle where I start temping. I'm going to start tomorrow just to try to get into a habit sooner rather than later. It will be hard because I have a feeling that New Years Day won't be easy to temp and I'm going away this weekend but I'll see what I can do. I'm excited to try again.
What are you doing to get KU? PNV, temping (starting tomorrow)
GTKY: Do you make New Year's Resolutions? If so, how long do you usually keep them? I honestly don't remember if I made a resolution last year - I was very sick at New Year's so I don't think I thought about it. Most of the time, they stick for a month or two.
CD: 11
Rants/Chart Stalks: I think I have a cold again. Damn cold season.
What are you doing to get KU? OPKs, temping, sex when DH wants it.
GTKY: Do you make New Year's Resolutions? If so, how long do you usually keep them? Nope, I can't remember them past a month or two so I end up breaking them because of forgetfulness.
Mio Marito per Sempre: Married 2009. SD is 12 yrs. DD is 4 yrs.
DS born 12/29/14
CD: 17
Rants/Chart Stalks: I was really hoping that I would see a temp spike today, but alas, I have not. Guess that means more sex tonight!
What are you doing to get KU? PNV, Preseed, Temping, CM
GTKY: Do you make New Year's Resolutions? If so, how long do you usually keep them? I do. Typically to lose weight/get healthy. I usually do OK for a couple of months but then fail.
CD: 36
Rants/Chart Stalks: Ugh, my temps are all over the place. I got too cocky with my 35 day cycle last month and now I'm paying the price.
What are you doing to get KU? sex whenever we can. I'm temping, using the OPK and preseed. Nothing I can do now but continue on.
GTKY: Do you make New Year's Resolutions? If so, how long do you usually keep them? I hardly ever make them. When I do, they are usually broken mid to late January.
CD: 9
WDTGKU: More laid back approach this month... FF n OPK's. Temping completely stressed me out last month :-t
R/CS: Actually nope. Riding the merry holiday wave still I guess.
GTKY: In the past. And when I have they rarely make it past February..lol! I generally do a blanket " to do better than the previous year " resolution. Nice n vaguely generic
CD: 14
Rants/Chart Stalks: I feel like people who have never TTC should not comment on the TTC process or bring it up with people they are not close to. Last night a woman started telling me, after demanding to know when I plan on having kids and me being vague, how TTC can't be that difficult since the teens she works with are always getting KU. She thinks people who have to try must be "doing something wrong". I'm proud of myself for keeping my mouth shut and walking away rather than causing a scene by punching her in her rude face.
What are you doing to get KU? EOD sex, temping/charting, PNVs, lots of water/green tea, debating using OPKs.
GTKY: Do you make New Year's Resolutions? If so, how long do you usually keep them? I haven't made a mew years resolution in a couple of years simply because I don't ever stick to them. I generally just hope the new year is better than the last and go from there.
BFP April 24, 2018 | EDD December 29, 2018
Cycle/Month: 20/18
CD: 5
Rants/Chart Stalks: I had such high hopes for this past cycle; I was really bummed. It ended up being a really weird cycle to the point where I finally just decided I need to post more often in the waiting to O and TWW threads. I think it will help my mind.
What are you doing to get KU? I drink green tea every morning and love how much CM it gives me. But I'm going to try a different approach with temping this month too. I am such a shitty sleeper that I wake up all night. I usually wait for the chunk of sleep in the morning to temp, but I've usually been rolling around in a half sleep haze by then. I think I'm just going to temp the first time I wake up as long as it has been three hours and tell FF it is the same time so I don't get open circles. Hopefully it will help to have a prettier chart. I don't want another cycle like this past one.
GTKY: Do you make New Year's Resolutions? If so, how long do you usually keep them? This year I'm not. It has been such a shitty year that I just need to get through all my medical bullshit and get better and KTFU.

CD: 22
Rants/Chart Stalks: Meh.
What are you doing to get KU? Temping, CBEFM, CM/CP
GTKY: Do you make New Year's Resolutions? If so, how long do you usually keep them?
Not really. I'm a pessimist/realist, so I wouldn't make the assumption that I'm more likely to reach a goal just because it's a new year, or whatever people do. I set regular goals, but they have nothing to do with when a new year starts.
CD: 8
Rants/Chart Stalks: I am hoping my ovulation date is more around CD 16 this month instead of CD 9 like last month.
What are you doing to get KU?: Temping & OPK's -- also this cycle we decided to have sex every other day starting a few days ago. Since my ovulation date was so wacky last month and we missed it, we are trying to cover our bases this month.
GTKY: Do you make New Year's Resolutions? If so, how long do you usually keep them?: Yes and no. I did more so in college. Now my husband and I usually set yearly goals we would like to achieve instead. We usually do pretty good at meeting them.
Married: August 2012
DD: 9/22/2014

Rants/Chart Stalks: Nope, feeling good this cycle.
What are you doing to get KU? FF, BBT, CM, EOD/ED during FW
GTKY: Do you make New Year's Resolutions? If so, how long do you usually keep them? I don't make them. It wasn't something we did in my family growing up, so I never started.

Rants/Chart Stalks: It's difficult when my step kids are home to HIO EOD, because my stepson's bedroom is directly below ours. He hears everything. LOL!
What are you doing to get KU? See above
GTKY: Do you make New Year's Resolutions? If so, how long do you usually keep them? I normally don't. I tend to set goals during the year at various times, depending on what is going on in my life.
It's not a "resolution" necessarily, but H and I set a goal to have sex (or have sexy time) at least 180 times in 2013. We set up a track-it app to keep our stats (because we're total nerds). And we did it! I think we're at 183 or so right now. It was fun to look back at which months were busier than others, busiest weekends, driest spell, etc. I don't think we're going to do it again this year though. :-) (I know, we're totally fucking strange.)

Rants/Chart Stalks: FINALLY got matching lines on my OPK! Bow Chica Wow Wow...
What are you doing to get KU? OPKs, HIO, PNV, CM
GTKY: Do you make New Year's Resolutions? If so, how long do you usually keep them? I make them every year. It usually just depends on what they are as to how long I actually keep them. It's fun to try though!

Rants/Chart Stalks: no
What are you doing to get KU? Tracking basal temp and CM
GTKY: Do you make New Year's Resolutions? If so, how long do you usually keep them? No. I don't need one more thing to stress about.
CD: 9
Rants/Chart Stalks: entering my FW, so I'm hoping to HIO as much as possible. DH actually asked me last night when my FW was... I haven't said anything to him this cycle about it so I'm glad he initiated the conversation.
What are you doing to get KU? lots of sex, checking CM, PNV, FF
GTKY: Do you make New Year's Resolutions? If so, how long do you usually keep them?
It's called Keep Track Pro. We have Android devices. I think it's meant to be for working out or something, but we use it for our own "workouts." ;-)
CD: 11
Rants/Chart Stalks: Getting nervous that we are really about to ttc baby 2! Not sure we're quite ready but DH is 35 and I'm 34 and my clock feels like it's a tickin'!
What are you doing to get KU? PNV, been charting for a few months now, will HIO EOD starting in a couple days, have some CBE OPK's as well.
GTKY: Do you make New Year's Resolutions? If so, how long do you usually keep them? Yes, usually it's to give up something bad (last year soda - I lasted for 6 months so what is my NY resolution this next year? Give up soda again) : /
Surprise BFP# 5 - 9/2/16 - Due 5/13/17
CD: 20
Rants/Chart Stalks: I keep thinking I have O'd because of my symptoms (sore boobs, I had O pains [i thought] the day before yesterday) but still no temp spike. So I'm just impatiently waiting. I really, really hope I O today, because if not our timing will suck...DH's penis got scratched on his zipper and I don't think it will be sanitary to have sex with an open scrape.
What are you doing to get KU? temping, charting
GTKY: Do you make New Year's Resolutions? If so, how long do you usually keep them? I usually make them...I don't usually keep them.
CD: 13
Rants/Chart Stalks: none today!
What are you doing to get KU? BBT, PNVs, OPKs, HIO, water, exercise
GTKY: Do you make New Year's Resolutions? If so, how long do you usually keep them? I usually do... it depends on what it is and how invested I have to be in it. Last year I set a goal to run a mini marathon. Did it, 3 times! Now working on a marathon!
CD: 18
Rants/Chart Stalks: first month charting and it's not very beautiful because I didn't chart at the same time every day plus I was sick. Supposedly I am still in my fertile days, which is interesting because I totally would have thought it was over based on my previous prediction method of just guessing. If I keep this up we will probably HIO more times in a two week period than ever before.
What are you doing to get KU? Temping and Humping
GTKY: Do you make New Year's Resolutions? If so, how long do you usually keep them?
Never made one, but DH suggested one this year that we can't drink alcohol on days we don't make our goal on the Nike Fuelband. I think I should go along with it because I intend to spend most of 2014 pregnant and not drinking anyway. Win Win!
CD: 16
Rants/Chart Stalks: I got peak fertility on my OPK and had O pains today, so hopefully I will ovulate today or tomorrow
What are you doing to get KU? PNV, CM charting, CBE Advanced OPKs. sex ED now
GTKY: Do you make New Year's Resolutions? If so, how long do you usually keep them?
CD: 14
Rants/Chart Stalks: 7 days of "high fertility" on a digital O test, still no EWCM. Getting annoyed because apparently O is supposed to happen in two days...
What are you doing to get KU? Charting CM/CP, temping, OPKs...
GTKY: Do you make New Year's Resolutions? If so, how long do you usually keep them?
My New Years Resolution every year is not to have a New Years Resolution...so every year I both fail and succeed.

CD: 15
Rants/Chart Stalks: I was getting worried I wasn't going to ovulate this cycle because it just felt different (doing Clomid). But, I got a positive opk today, which is exactly when I got it last cycle, so I expect to o tomorrow! Woo!!!
What are you doing to get KU? HIO like rabbits...100 mg Clomid CD5-9, PNV, half assed my BBT this month (tried to give myself a mental break for the holidays), Opks
GTKY: Do you make New Year's Resolutions? If so, how long do you usually keep them? I don't make them anymore because I don't usually make them. And I don't typically celebrate the new year til March anyway, because I am an auditor so I always think of it as the new year when I finally stop looking at 2013 numbers.

I was hoping for a Christmas baby based on high/peak digital OPK, but then got lows, so now I am hoping for a NYE baby too!!
