Testing Plans: Still holding out for 10DPO. I'm going out of town Wednesday - Sunday so I'll test right before I leave, then again when I'm home at 14DPO if AF doesn't arrive first.
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart stalk: Had crazy cramps for a little while last night, my breasts are still really sore. I think AF is about to rear her ugly head. Sleeeeeepy too. Mondays...
GTKY: Other than TCOYF, what was the last book you read and did you enjoy it?
The Heart Does Not Grow Back by Fred Venturini. It was really good!
Testing Plans: BFN so I will keep testing until AF comes...
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart stalk: looks like chart is going triphasic, but who knows.
GTKY: Other than TCOYF, what was the last book you read and did you enjoy it? Currently reading both "outlander" (like the tv series) and "the Martian" (like the Matt Damon movie that the trailer is now in theaters for) and both are really good! The Martian is easier to read than outlander, just written in a more casual style that flows a bit more easier, but I love both of the plots!
Edited for wrong emoji. Silly fat fingers on such tiny keyboard...
Testing Plans: I got a faint BFP this morning. Tested with other brands and it came back BFN. According to FF BFP brand has highest reliability rating (80%+) at this stage so I am going to go out and get more of those to test again tomorrow. I am trying not to get too excited yet.
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart stalk: I was certain my temp would drop today but it actually went up dramatically. I actually woke up because I was feeling really sick to my stomach. Tested as above.
I am still not feeling all that great, the thought of food is disgusting. I am also trying to talk myself off the symptom spotting ledge...
GTKY: Other than TCOYF, what was the last book you read and did you enjoy it? The last book I read was The Night Circus and it was AMAZING! I was annoyed that the story ended! I am currently reading Flight Behaviour and Wildwood Imperium and enjoying both immensely!
Testing Plans: Tested this morning and I thought I saw a line on a pink dye Dollar Tree test, but it was so faint that at first I though I was seeing things. I am going to wait and test again.
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart stalk: My temp dropped pretty dramatically this am, but not below the coverline and I did get up an hour earlier than normal. So, before I tested, I was pretty convinced af was coming soon. Now I am not sure.
GTKY: Other than TCOYF, what was the last book you read and did you enjoy it? Nantucket Nights by Elin Hilderbrand@kristiea Good luck!
GTKY: Other than TCOYF, what was the last book you read and did you enjoy it? i have kindle unlimited and i read a book every other day and they are mostly erotica. lol
Testing Plans: Plan on taking a HPT on 10DPO and another on 14DPO unless AF comes.
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart stalk: no symptoms, no rants, nothing to bring up.
GTKY: Other than TCOYF, what was the last book you read and did you enjoy it? I love science fiction and romance novels. Sherrilyn Kenyon is one of my favorite authors. I tend to read a few novels at a time, and about 2-4 a week. right now I am working on Kenyon's League series, and Nick Sparks Safe Haven book.

Testing Plans: 7th or 14th depending on if I can hold out or AF comes
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart stalk: hot flash this morning but that could be because of anything!
GTKY: Other than TCOYF, what was the last book you read and did you enjoy it? I re-read The Undomestic Goddess by Sophie Kinsella. It's my favorite summer book. I just ordered the new Jane Green (Summer Secrets) and it should arrive today!
Testing Plans: Won't test until Friday or Saturday (9 and 10 DPO).
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart stalk: Would like a bigger temp increase post O, but my overall temps this cycle are definitely higher than last cycle. Probably has no meaning though.
GTKY: Other than TCOYF, what was the last book you read and did you enjoy it? Just about to finish Eighth Grave After Dark by Darynda Jones. Pretty entertaining and easy to read paranormal fantasy series.
I'm not technically in the TWW (a few more days) but I just wanted to say @KristieA good luck!!!!! And I loved Night Circus also! It was so visual! I wonder if they'll make a movie for it.
Testing Plans: I have a short LP so I will probably test next Sunday, at 9 DPO, if that is BFN then I'll hold out for a few more days before testing again.
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart stalk: though I had 2 small temp rises before O date it put my O date at CD 17, it felt like I O'd CD 16 based on other symptoms but oh well either way timing seems good, and I'm excited to have CH and move over to TWW!
GTKY: Other than TCOYF, what was the last book you read and did you enjoy it? Currently reading Ready Player One which I'm enjoying, before that Golden Son was good.
@mommy grams thanks- i'm having a strange temp increase: https://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/5a4424 not sure what to make of it. The open circles mean nothing IMO, i woke up a 7am vs. 6am. I still temped right after waking. Its just strange and I'm still figuring out all the Ins and Outs.

That is interesting. Honestly I'm not sure. @cattlebride what do you think? I'm @Kristin712's chart her temp spike/elevation did correlate to her bfp, but I'm not sure.
ETA: here's the lesson on it from ff--I posted the wrong link. It's lesson 17 from ff that teaches about pregnancy patterns. Sorry!!
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart stalk: I guess the TWW is over for me. AF still hasn't fully showed up, scheduled for yesterday and just had some spotting so I took the test anyway. Oh well. Now to wait for AF to fully come and start planning a 4th of July BBQ with the fam.
GTKY: Other than TCOYF, what was the last book you read and did you enjoy it?
I am currently reading Dumb Witness by Agatha Christie. I previous read The Quiet Gentleman by Georgette Heyer. Book nerd alert. 8-)
@KristieA I read The Night Circus and loved it too! FX for you!

GTKY: Other than TCOYF, what was the last book you read and did you enjoy it? I have been reading the Decent series. They have been very entertaining.
CD/DPO: 28/ not sure when I O'd.not temping or using opk until next cycle if I continue to get a BFN this month. DH just wants to "do it naturally" which I explained that temping & using opk's is still natural you just know more around when to hit the nail on the head haha
Timing: hopefully good
Testing Plans: waiting until after this weekend since we have a huge Fourth of July party planned. AF if she shows her face will be here Tuesday. So I plan to try & wait until she doesn't arrive
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart stalk: I've been having headaches but I think that's from sleeping too much (had a slow week at work). I'm excited to be a little busier this week it will keep my mind off of poas everyday!
GTKY: Other than TCOYF, what was the last book you read and did you enjoy it? I haven't read a book in so long ugh. Once I get caught up in a book I don't put it down until I'm finished which distracts me from other house hold chores & such!
