Re: @-&gt;-- TWW WED --&lt;-@

  • Hello lovely ladies!  I apologise for my absence but I have been trying to get my house in order proverbially as well as literally.  I am still off sick from work and waiting to see the rheumatologist for further testing (because just taking painkillers and paxil isn't really fixing the problem).  In the mean time I have been taking matters into my own hands by actually seeing a therapist despite my doubts, practicing yoga daily, meditation, walking and spending a couple of hours a day between naps cleaning and organising to help keep my mind off things.  I folded my husbands boxers... this situation is becoming cray-cray over here!  OK so lets get on with it... will be posting slowly as I catch up with reading!

    Month/cycle: 9 (was 12 but I decided the non-temping/timing months don't count because I don't need one more thing to be concerned about)


    CD/DPO: 28/?? 

    Timing:  We had some sex

    Test plans: I was really focused on fixing myself this month and didn't temp/track etc... then I realised it was day 28 this morning... now I have the crazies... going to have to at least hold out till tomorrow for FMU

    Rants/Raves/symptoms: my boobs hurt, then again everything hurts right now

    GTKY: What is on your Christmas wish list this year? New rugby gear for coaching, pressure cooker

  • Month/cycle: 1 (al)

    CD/DPO: 20/3-4

    Timing: high

    Test plans: seriously unsure

    Rants/Raves/symptoms: I've been bloated and crampy since yesterday late morning. Also noticed hot flashes earlier? And my boob/nipple soreness hasn't gone away since O time. Strange to me. I feel weird. And I want bacon. But my life is weird right now, so I'm sure none of this is pregnancy related. Super elated that it's less than an hour from the end of my shift and I can go home, sleep and eat. One more night this week (tonigjt) and oh my am I ecstatic!

    GTKY: What is on your Christmas wish list this year?

    I haven't put too much thought into what I myself want for Christmas this year just yet to be honest. I'd be happy with a new microwave and a gift card to buy new gear for work (whoa, how lame, haha). I do know that I am extremely excited to be getting my mom an iPad (hopefully on Black Friday) which she has been wanting for a while now :)

  • Welcome back @CaveWmnInBrit‌! Glad to hear you are taking some time to take care of yourself. Hope the new therapist and routine works out for you.

    Month/cycle: 3

    CD/DPO: 24/8

    Timing: -4, -2, -1

    Test plans: 2 more days.

    Rants/Raves/symptoms: nothing really

    GTKY: What is on your Christmas wish list this year?
    I suck at Christmas. I'm not good at waiting to buy things. It drives my mom crazy. I always end up asking for gift cards. Honestly, I wish they'd just stop buying me stuff altogether but she feels the gift exchanging is important. DH and I don't exchange gifts.

    Month/cycle: 6/5 (3AL)

    CD/DPO: 30/12

    Timing: -4 -3 -2 O

    Test plans: (ETA) BFN just now. White as can be. I have absolutely no hope that I'm pregnant this cycle. And this was our last chance til next April or May.

    Rants/Raves/symptoms: After that temp dip two days ago, it started rising yesterday, and it was pretty high today. That dip was so weird!

    GTKY: Honestly, I'm really just looking forward to meeting my niece (BIL's baby), because they live halfway across the country. She will be 9+ months by the time they come for Christmas and I get to meet her for the first time. Also, two of my sisters are pregnant with girls, and one has her c-section set for 12/29. So I am so excited to meet her too!
  • Sorry you've been having a hard time, @cavewmninbrit!

    Month/cycle: 18/12

    CD/DPO: 27/2

    Timing: -2

    Test plans: I'm getting a progesterone check with my RE on Saturday. If it's low, we will supplement. I'm guessing maybe 10dpo if I make it that long?

    Rants/Raves/symptoms: This cycle will be the earliest I've ever O'd! I also had the strongest +opk ever. I'm wondering if this is due to the metformin this cycle or the HSG...or maybe my body's finally getting back on track! If no BFP this cycle, we are starting Femara next cycle!

    GTKY: What is on your Christmas wish list this year?
    The only thing I really want (as lame as it sounds) is a gel nail kit...the one that comes with the light to set/dry your nails. I'm too cheap to get them done professionally lol.

    Welcome back @CaveWmnInBrit‌!

    Cycle: 5

    Cd:32/11dpo

    Timing: very good

    Testing plans: I woke up this morning feeling weirdly optimistic despite my cervix being low and have zero symptoms, so I POAS. Bfn. Of course.

    Rants and raves: I'm feeling super down. I had a long cry to H last night and woke up feeling like someone hit me over the head with a mallet. I don't know why I POAS as it did not make me feel any better. I also woke up to terrible election results here in Florida, which is making me extra pms ragey. I don't even want af to show up to start a new cycle. I don't want to put so much energy and time into charting. I just want to wave a magical wand and be pregnant because right now I'm sick of this shit. /endrant

    GTKY: last year DS was one at Christmas and really didn't get it. This year I feel like he will finally enjoy it for the first time, so I'm looking forward to his excitement and face in Christmas morning. That's really the only thing I want for Christmas. That and a new area rug, ours has been destroyed by toddler and cats....

    I'm so sorry @jags8 I wish I had something helpful to say, but right now, everything sucks and I feel your frustration.
  • @Jags8‌ I'm so sorry hun. *bewbie hugs*

    @CaveWmnInBrit‌, hey girl hey! I was thinking about you yesterday and am glad to see you're back but soo sorry you're not feeling well.

    A nice hoodie sweatshirt that is thick and made better than the Old Navy one I have now, and is long enough for my long torso. There are some cool " Made in Detroit" ones around here. If anyone has any suggestions though that would be great!

    CD/DPO: 28/13

    Timing: perfect

    Test plans: none

    Rants/Raves/symptoms: I had super light brown spotting for two days and then nothing. But my temp is super low. I have no hope left for this cycle. I'm also stuck in NYC for a business trip and don't have DH to make me happier.

    GTKY: What is on your Christmas wish list this year? Nothing. I thought I would be pregnant by now and would be asking for baby stuff. I have no idea what I want.

    Rants/Raves/symptoms: My UTI symptoms went away... a little odd, but I won't complain they are gone and never amounted to anything.

    Rants/Raves/symptoms: Temp stayed low today so who the hell knows. I really really just want this cycle to be over one way or another!  

    GTKY: What is on your Christmas wish list this year? A new workout program I have been wanting or new clothes since I have lost a bunch of weight. 

    @jags8-so sorry for the BFN, here is to hoping that maybe you will have a BFP tomorrow, you know what they say-you aren't out til you're out.

    Test plans: I'm saying I'm not going to test this cycle.  I doubt I'll be saying that next week at this time

    Rants/Raves/symptoms: My chart is so wonky this cycle.  I have no idea when I O'd if I O'd at all.  I don't have clear crosshairs, and I never got a positive OPK.  I don't know what to think.

    Test plans: Waiting to see how long my LP lasts.

    Rants/Raves/symptoms: Not having any signs of AF is making me hopeful! I would also be happy to just have a normal LP length this cycle.

    GTKY: What is on your Christmas wish list this year?
    I will be asking Santa for a BFP. I would also like a crockpot, restorative yoga passes, or other stuff for experiences like a restaurant gift card or groupon weekend getaway.
  • Month/cycle: 15

    CD/DPO: 26/6

    Timing: -2, 0

    Test plans: November 15

    Rants/Raves/symptoms: I have a follow up appointment with my RE in about an hour to go over my bloodwork, DH's SA, and schedule my hysterscopy to remove a polyp. I had a weird dream last night that I peed on this new HPT that printed out your results on a receipt. Of course mine was positive and it somehow knew my betas? After I got my printout, I looked at the test and saw it was a blue dye and then my results magically changed into a negative. Even my dreams won't let me have a BFP. Lame.

    GTKY: What is on your Christmas wish list this year?
    There are a couple of holiday palettes that I want from Sephora. I also want the Walking Dead graphic novels.

    Month/cycle:
    4/4
    CD/DPO: 18/6
    Timing: -5 -3 -1
    Test plans: Probably 10 POD / Sunday

    Rants/Raves/symptoms: Feeling a bit more anxious to test this cycle. The past 3 I've been able to distract myself and not get hopeful, but this is our best timing yet and of course I would love to share the good news around the holidays.

    GTKY: What is on your Christmas wish list this year? I always ask for clothes. DH usually picks me out a cool piece of art or something I complain about not having all the time. I'm totaly stumped on what I'm going to get people too.

    Timing: high

    Test plans: probably not going to happen

    Rants/Raves/symptoms: I started spotting last night and am spotting a little bit this morning so I am thinking I am out. Just waiting for AF to fully come now. This seems to be following the same pattern as last month (3-4 days of spotting and then AF). I'm super bummed.

    CD/DPO: 15/3

    Timing: -2, -1, O

    Test plans:  Trying not to think about it.

    Rants/Raves/symptoms:  Nothing that can't be explained.  Except I may have gotten a little overractive about technical issues with TB this morning.  Is the F-bomb really appropriate?

    GTKY: What is on your Christmas wish list this year?  That my rehab for gringy-ness takes this year.  Yeah, I'm one of those...

  • Thanks for all the love everyone. I've been spotting more so I'm sure my period is right around the corner.
  • Welcome back @cavewmninbrit and thanks for starting.  I hope you start feeling better soon!

    Sorry about the BFN @jags8, keeping my FX for you though!

    Sorry for the all of the other BFN's as well. 

    Month/cycle: 3

    CD/DPO: 23 / 10

    Timing: -2, -1, O, +1 AI

    Test plans: Friday

    Rants/Raves/symptoms: DW and I talked about testing this morning depending on what my temp looked like, but it took a little dip (.04) so waiting it out until Friday.

    GTKY: What is on your Christmas wish list this year? All I truly want for Christmas is to be pregnant.  I have no desire for anything material, so we are keeping things low key and will put the money we would have spent on presents into our baby savings fund.

    @KayWay85 - I have been there many times.  Hang in there!

    Congrats @wineandwalter

    Month/cycle: 5

    CD/DPO: 18/4 (maybe???)

    Timing: FF took away my CHs this morning so I'm not sure anymore.  If it was when the original CHs came in we were -4, -2, +1

    Test plans: None...yet!

    Rants/Raves/symptoms: This is my first month temping and I can't for the life of me figure out how to add my chart to get some help analyzing it.  I had a super low temp this morning which took away my CHs.  I had positive OPK the days leading up to the original O date (CD14) but now with my CHs I don't know.  The only thing I did different this morning is I took my temperature while lying on my back - normally I am on my stomach when I temp before getting out of bed.  Could this have caused a drastic change? Should I discard the temp for this morning?  I had been so happy I had O'd because I just wanted to confirm that I actually had functioning ovaries. UGH!

    GTKY: What is on your Christmas wish list this year? I don't really need or want anything right now - I would prefer to do away with gifts, but my mother insists that we still exchange gifts. Since there isn't anything I want/need I ask for gift cards which she hates giving. Then she wastes her money on things I will never use/don't like.  It drives me nuts!

    Timing: -4, -1 (FF just changed it today per temps) (had better timing before)

    Test plans: November 20 is 18 DPO. Maybe November 17. I tested yesterday lol.

    Rants/Raves/symptoms: Just I swear I've been feeling sore boobs, but it's for a minute a day and goes away. I'm going kind of crazy this month.

  • Congrats @wineandwalter!!  
    Sorry for all the BFNs seen - not fun at all.

    Month/cycle: 2


    CD/DPO: CD19

    Timing: I'm pretty confident about timing - only time will tell.

    Test plans: Not til CD30 - but I have no self control so if any symptoms start popping up next week I'll probably start POAS.

    Rants/Raves/symptoms: Nada. Too early for the phantom ones to set in.

    GTKY: What is on your Christmas wish list this year? Some stuff I got in an ipsy bag a couple of months ago, some new Toms, and maybe even some new furniture for my craft room/office.  I need a fix in there, it's just one disorganized cluster.

    GTKY: What is on your Christmas wish list this year?  Clothes.  I desperately need a new wardrobe.  A stylist to pick out said new clothes would be nice too.
  • Damn. CD1 for me. This is my first month recording BBT's but if my O date was right, that means my LP is only 9 days. That's not good, right? I have had short cycles since I started tracking them 7 months ago. They range 23-27 days.

    Give it a couple more months and see for sure that they are truly short. It's better to have hard data then to say its an issue after only one charting cycle.
