Re: ***WTO Thursday***
CD: 14
What are you doing: Temping, CM checks, OPKs.
Rants/raves/chart stalk: Temps are still down. Got a light line on an OPK so I hope that's a sign my body is still gearing to O. Hoping I get more fertile CM in the next few days. Can CM can go from sticky back to EWCM before going back to sticky again? Ugh. I'm just so stressed! Yesterday I hung out with my coworkers babies and they were so sweet and amazing.
GTKY: If you had to pick a celebrity to play you in the movie of your life, who would it be?
CD: 23
What are you doing: BBT, PNV, OPKs, sex, raspberry leaf
Rants/raves/chart stalk: I am hoping for CH tomorrow!
GTKY: If you had to pick a celebrity to play you in the movie of your life, who would it be? Kristen Bell- she looks nothing like me but I love her.
Cycle/month: 4/3
CD: 1
What are you doing: Nothing but PNVs and temping for now.
Rants/raves/chart stalk: CD1, sigh....
GTKY: If you had to pick a celebrity to play you in the movie of your life, who would it be? Can I have the girl who's Hermione Granger, followed by Rachel Weisz, please? In my film I'm a much more glamorous version of me
Cycle/month: 2/3
CD: 16
What are you doing to get pregnant?: All the acronyms; so far we've been keeping up with EOD sex. DH seems pleased
Rants/raves/chartstalks: Well all my impending O signs disappeared, just like last cycle, so I'm in for the long haul again, I guess. Maybe this cycle I'll only have two fake outs instead of three, ugh. At least my increased sex drive is hanging around, so EOD sex is still fun. Bright side, yo.
GTKY: Sarah Paulson, even though my best friend is convinced I look like Kirsten Dunst (I don't). Besides, Sarah Paulson is a WAY better actress.
Extra rant: I have THE WORST headache today, and I'm pretty sure it's from limiting fluids to use OPKs. I usually drink an obscene amount of water, so even waiting two hours is like torture. I'm gonna have to make sure to drink extra when I get home from work.
My Chart
CD: 18
What are you doing: starting opks, checking CM, temping, pnv, metformin
Rants/raves/chart stalk: We leave today to go to the Finger Lakes for 5 days and I'll likely O while we're there. Hoping we can get out of sharing a room with DS. Also, it's my birthday today
GTKY: If you had to pick a celebrity to play you in the movie of your life, who would it be? Jennifer Lawrence? I don't know. I reserve the right to change my answer.

EDD July 1, 2015
CD: 1
What are you doing: right now just PNV, BBT, and mainlining Midol.
Rants/raves/chart stalk: My first period off BCP was VERY light and short and almost nonexistant...this one definitely feels real. I have terrible cramps right now. i guess i'll probably feel better about it once this "real" period is over.
GTKY: If you had to pick a celebrity to play you in the movie of your life, who would it be? Scarlett Johansson. i really like her. and we have similar builds. she also went to high school in NJ (like me) and is close enough to my age that it wouldn't be weird. i mean i also love jennifer lawrence and emma stone, but i don't know that they could play convincing 32 year olds. ;-)

CD: 19
What are you doing: bbt, opks, pnv, sex
Rants/raves/chart stalk: Annoyed... I have no friggin clue if I O'd yet. Had a temp dip on CD14 and have higher temps since but FF and Kindara are not detecting O. On CD 14 also had a negative OPK but had positives on CD 16 & 17. I am toats out of wack and confused. Boo.
GTKY: If you had to pick a celebrity to play you in the movie of your life, who would it be? Jennifer Lawrence. She's the best!

What are you doing: all the things
Rants/raves/chart stalk: So yesterday was my due date from my m/c and my best friend was induced 3 weeks early so that was a little rough. I had wine for lunch and dinner.
GTKY: If you had to pick a celebrity to play you in the movie of your life, who would it be? Hmm.. I have to think about this one

What are you doing: waiting out AF - and I remembered to temp this morning!
Rants/raves/chart stalk: rave - I had a great run this morning. Over 3 miles and I felt like I could have kept going (but had to come to work!).
GTKY: If you had to pick a celebrity to play you in the movie of your life, who would it be? I'm with @redheaded14 on Anne Hathaway. I look nothing like her but someone said I reminded them of her once. I have no idea why.
@Adlestrop @delujm0 @DaikokuJess - sorry for cd1 (and anyone else I might have missed!)
@nittanyllama - happy birthday!!!
@ashleyinva - your post made my chuckle. Thanks for that!

Rants, Raves, Chart stalks- I just really hate waiting to O, I feel like it goes so much slower than the two week wait. I hate stressing about how are timing will be. Shit I keep forgetting to order opks this cycle, I need to do that now!
What celebrity Id want to play me in a movie- Jennifer Lawrence, I love her and I think she does justice to all the characters she has played.

Rants/raves/chart stalk: my chart hates me, open circles galore! Tmi but a side effect of clomid is reduced CM, but my body said fuck that, that shit is everywhere!

What are you doing to get pregnant? SMEP, Temping, OPKs, CBFM, fertility smoothie
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: Fertility Friend alerted friends and family to my ttc news, so I have been dealing with unsolicited advice from my fertile myrtle cousins, friends and the weirdest.....a girl I had one class with in college.
GTKY: If you had to pick a celebrity to play you in the movie of your life, who would it be?I would like Dolly Parton circa 70-80s.....even though she is much too sweet for me.

Cycle/month:6CD: 16
What are you doing: SEX ED temping, opk
Rants/raves/chart stalk: This is my first month temping and it is a little confusing to read and understand what I am doing this first go round. I also have had three days of positive OPK"s so I am a little overwhelmed today. I am tired and in need of coffee
GTKY: If you had to pick a celebrity to play you in the movie of your life, who would it be? I have no idea.... But I would like to have my husband played by Omari Hardwick!!!!!
I friended them on Facebook to try to get a coupon, literally got a text from a friend 4 hours later. Not good.

@7DeadlyZins - FX for your CH's, your chart looks good!
@Adlestrop, @delujm0, @DaikokuJess - Sorry for CD1.
@nittanyllama - Have a great time!!
@ashleyinva - Hoping today is your day, have fun this weekend.
@allisong1187 - can you link your chart? I would guess with +OPKs on CD16/17 your O was later than CD14. Keep temping and HIO!
@babynica - sorry you're having a rough time, hugs to you!
@lubire135 - sorry you are feeling frustrated
@Kellybenelly83 - Don't you love it when O date is on the weekend! Have fun!!

@ginger1228 CD2 twinsies yup pretty much sucks but after it's over let's hope this is our month !
@K8lynjune wtf I can't believe FF did that hopefully you can find a way to delete it so more people don't pry.
@thefrugalwife this is my first month temping to looks like you are further into your cycle so I can throw my uber newbie questions at you
Cycle/month: 7/7
CD: 2
What are you doing: OPK , waiting for my bbt to come from amazon, PNV,
Rants/raves/chart stalk: Ughhh my cd1 came yesterday while my boss and I were stuck in a car together. I did get to drink an entire bottle of wine last night an that made me feel better . So tired today thank goodness tomorrow is Friday.
GTKY: If you had to pick a celebrity to play you in the movie of your life, who would it be?
I would like to think it would be jennifer Lawrence but more realistically Drew Barrymore from like never been kissed days Hahahha.
Cycle/month: 2/2
CD: 1
What are you doing: continuing PNV; Will start OPK around CD 12; possibility of starting temping tomorrow (see RRCS)
Rants/raves/chart stalk: I knew to expect AF but that never makes it any easier. I am taking it surprisingly well (granted I'm at work and don't want to have a meltdown so we'll see how tonight goes when I'm alone and it sinks in) I'm still up in the air about temping. My schedule is weird and I'd literally probably have to temp at like 2 or 3am because my alarm goes off at 4am and I undoubtedly always wake up and have to pee just a couple hours before I have to get up, and I'm not convinced I could remember or be diligent enough to temp at that time. I know it would end up making my life easier but I can see myself screwing it all up majorly or reading the temps all wrong or inputting it wrong.... So I have no clue!
GTKY: If you had to pick a celebrity to play you in the movie of your life, who would it be?
Hard to say..... Melissa McCarthy is hilarious (even though I'm not.... It'd be fun to see her play me!)
My Ovulation Chart
CD: 14
What are you doing: EOD sex, OPKs, B complex/PNVs, preseed as needed. Reduced caffeine, mostly because the crashes from even a single cup of coffee is worse than the benefit at the moment.
Rants/raves/chart stalk: Using OPKs finally. DH is more responsive to me initiating this cycle, so hopefully timing will be better.
GTKY: If you had to pick a celebrity to play you in the movie of your life, who would it be? Drew Barrymore. Closest to reality.
@nittanyllama Happy Birthday!!
@k8lynjune I would be pissed; hope the situation gets fixed soon!
@pmreed79 Happy Anniversary, enjoy your trip!
@3houlagirl That's gotta be obnoxious.
@babynica *super internet hugs* That's gotta be rough.
Cycle/month: 3/3
CD: 6
What are you doing: BBT, PNV, waiting game
Rants/raves/chart stalk: Woke up at 4:00am this morning for some bizarre reason and tried to wait out getting up until my alarm went off at 5:30. My bladder wasn't down with that plan, so I had to temp at 4:45am instead of my normal 6:00am. But it seems to be fine, so we'll see.
GTKY: If you had to pick a celebrity to play you in the movie of your life, who would it be? I'm not sure who could pull of my particular brand of quirkiness. Can I combine Jennifer Lawrence, Shailene Woodley, Melissa McCarthy, and Natalie Portman into one person and have her play me?

Cycle 1
Cd 22
What we are doing- the usual ttc stuff which brings me to my question since I don't feel like looking it up. Opk I know it's 4 hours after last pee ( yeah that never happens since I drink 100oz water day) but I remember there being an optimal time frame some time in the afternoon, when is it?
No rants today just trying to wait patiently to o.
Who would play me on a movie- Jenna Coleman because she is the only name that come to mind right now, lol.
Make a pregnancy ticker
@K8lynjune I would have been soo mad!
@holly628 um, I know it sounds gross, tmi disclosure so if you don't want, don't read: but I made notes last month, like my ewcm was white with hardly any stretch, then watery, then watery with little white clumps, then ewcm kinda stretchy but snapped, then oh wow that's stretchy. It kinda helped me understand that mine changes it up a bit. Then I had what I think may have been ovulation spotting, just the tiniest bit when wiping, but my ewcm didn't come for two more days...so everybody's different.
@AnnaTTCat32 give yourself a candy bar and a push of encouragement! Your O is probably "right" here to surprise you! It's about to happen and you can catch it! (Just think if it's a 35 day cycle your just coming into your fertile window 35-14 =cd21.)
Sorry to see all the cd1's
Cycle/month: 2
Cd: 3
What are you doing: This was my first morning to temp! We shall see how I do! Bbt, cm, cp, good old timing-fx
Rants/raves/chart stalks: umm my first real period in 10 years, it sucks. It's not quite as excruciating as I had in my head, but it's no walk in the park. DH asked me to explain how temping worked last night. I feel lucky to have him and that he doesn't think I'm strange. He's a keeper.
GTKY: ohh probably Rachel McAdams!
CD: 13
What are you doing: usual, green tea, temping, checking CM
Rants/raves/chart stalk: CM is headed toward fertile, whoo!
GTKY: If you had to pick a celebrity to play you in the movie of your life, who would it be? Anna Kendrick. She is hilarious and doesn't take herself too seriously.
