The very first low dip, I woke up freezing. I really don't feel it was accurate. The peak after that is bc I slept with extra blankets and turned up the air so it wouldn't affect it and also had a few drinks that night (I think I over compensated lol) If I take out yest temp, it says I o on sat like I thought.
Testing Plans: have tested and got BFN's (obviously too early just got a little too excited)
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart Stalk: So I just started temping a couple days ago to get used to it before next cycle and I've got a crazy spike in temp the past 2 days...I figured I have already ovulated due to CM & CP that I was tracking (yes I know you cannot truly confirm O'ing based only on this but for our first month of TTC I figured I would just have fun with it) but maybe I'm O'ing later with a longer cycle after coming off the pill in June?. Also a little grumpy after the night shift I just worked, I swear everyone and their mother was pregnant last night (I work in a hospital laboratory), and I had to go to OB floor 5 times to take blood on women giving birth and just about every preg test ordered by the ER came up positive....really!!!!!! I'm pretty sure a BFP is not happening this month and if AF could just show up and get things over with that would be great......
GTKY: When you are up way too late what are you doing (besides trying to get KTFU!) Watching tv/Netflix (if I found a new series to binge watch) or on my phone
ETA: words are hard and I only slept 4 hours after my night shift

Could be because you're missing a bunch of temps around when you think you O'd - FF usually wants three temps above the cover line to confirm O. Also, why the open circles today/yesterday? Did you temp at a different time?
TTC #1 --- BFP #1 5/15, loss at 5 weeks --- BFP #2 12/15, loss at 4+3 --- RE testing 3/16 normal, still trying for our rainbow
@dixie7701 While I was at an annual visit, my OB gave me the name of the RE she recommended I see after I told her we were trying with no luck. She said she couldn't do the HSG testing but to come back to her when I got PG. I didn't schedule with the RE until several months later and I emailed my OB for the name again. I think she would have given me the name via email anyway, so I don't think you need a referral. Maybe just a recommendation!! This was my experience.
Edit: I do think it depends on your insurance too. I have a PPO plan.
I also have a PPO plan and I didn't think that required a referral, but I wasn't 100% sure. Thanks for the info!

The open circles are because I had just typed in all of the temps from another app I was using and those two were actually in the morning. Yeah, I stopped doing bbt because I got the peak on opk and thought I was doing better just charting cm and opk testing. Then after reading everything yall wrote, I went back to doing bbt every day. I guess I will wait for af and try better at charting next month. I just don't want my donor to feel like this is taking too long (he won't ever complain, just my own fear).
RE DX for me: Anovulatory cycles/Mild PCOS RE DX for DW: Endometrioma on left Ovary. Reciprocal Ivf Feb 2016. DW eggs and I am carrying. EDD: 10/27/16
Testing Plans: Friday DPO 11 or by Saturday DPO 12.
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart Stalk: Nothing really. I haven't really been paying attention to any symptoms - kind of over that for now. BUT, went to another Fertility Clinic today and DH and I LOVED them. They were so friendly and helpful and we did not feel rushed or pressured at all. They gave us so much information and were so helpful and informative with the financial stuff. So we decided to cancel our follow up appt with the other fertility clinic and are going with this one. We also found out that DH has amazing coverage for infertility and we'd be covered 85-100% while mine is only 50%. We had always planned to put me on his insurance since I don't plan to work after having a baby so that decided it. But that means we have to wait until January (likely) to start treatment because have to wait until open season closes (I believe). But this allows us to get all the testing and pretreatments done at a better pace. This also means DH has time to have his procedure to repair the two varicocele veins and potentially see the difference in a few months. If they improve significantly (not betting on this) we could potentially do IUI, but we are looking at IVF w/ICSI right now. It feels so good to really have a plan even if we have to wait a few more months. I mean, I could still end up pregnant within a year from when we started trying! :-)
GTKY: When you are up way too late what are you doing (besides trying to get KTFU!) Watching videos online or reading. The interwebs are addictive.

Testing Plans: Erm, probably in 2weeks time of AF hasn't arrived. Who am I kidding though, I won't last that long before I just have to poas
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart Stalk: Well I'm not totally happy with our timing, DH didn't feel like it on the weekend and I either misread my cm or didn't have any of the good stuff until the day of o, which is coincidentally when I started taking mucinex so I'm thinking I'll do that a bit earlier next cycle.
GTKY: When you are up way too late what are you doing (besides trying to get KTFU!) I go to bed really early, but on the odd occasion I stay up late I usually have got too engrossed in a book
Sorry for the 2 charts, I did that by mistake and it won't let delete one
Edited: not only had I attached a chart twice it was also totally the wrong one and now it won't let me attach the right one. Sigh.
Testing Plans: Maybe this weekend, but its still a little early
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart Stalk: I really thought I had pretty good timing this month and then FF went and changed my O date. Oh well!
GTKY: When you are up way too late what are you doing (besides trying to get KTFU!) I usually get sucked into playing on my phone or I'm just binge watching a show on Netflix.
Month/Cycle: 2-3? Not sure where to make the distinction.
CD/DPO: 28/ 7-9
Timing: Pretty good!
Testing Plans: I'd like to wait at least 1 more week. My plans are to start testing next Wednesday
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart Stalk: Is this the slowest week of my life?! Also, curse the human mind for seeing patterns in everything!!!!
GTKY: Usually reading, watching netflix, or playing video games. Last night it was binge watching "Call the Midwife" while incessantly refreshing TB. XD
Testing Plans: Friday even though it'll still probably be too early
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart Stalk: Will someone chart stalk me? I have solid CHs for CD14 but I didn't start charting until CD9 and my temp just keeps jumping up. I'm afraid maybe I ovulated later?
GTKY: When you are up way too late what are you doing (besides trying to get KTFU!) Either catching up on shows or playing on my phone!
Testing Plans: I really want to wait until AF is late (or even the day I expect it to show up) so around Aug 10-11
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart Stalk: nothing much... Just so impatient. I am trying to be more relaxed this cycle. Honestly, it almost feels like it will never happen (even though we have only been trying for two months).
GTKY - When you are up way too late what are you doing (besides trying to get KTFU): usually lurking about the bump, pinteresting or reading... I don't have any trouble wasting time it seems.
Testing Plans: I have all these cheapie hcg tests lying around so I gotta use them up. I plan on holding out till 11 or 12dpo. Some women feel like getting BFNs is more frustrating but for me it's almost more relaxing. Once they're negative and my temp drops I no longer speculate. I find it to be more stressful holding my breath wondering if AF will show versus waiting at the door for her arrival.
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart Stalk: Had some random blood-tinged CM today. Totes not symptom spotting or anything
GTKY: When you are up way too late what are you doing (besides trying to get KTFU!) Reading though all these threads on the bump. I seem to always go to the same 5-6 websites and about 3-4 of them are message boards so I just rotate through them over and over looking for new posts until I get too tired. Obsessed much??
