I have no experience with REs in general, @Winnie81 but it totally sounds like your doctor isn't all that invested. I'd be pissed. Good luck if you do decide to find another!
Month/Cycle: 4/4
CD/DPO: 31/13 or 31/14 but most likely CD 1
Timing: great
Testing: not great. BFNs all around
R/R/CS: so I switched from advanced to fam and my cross hairs moved a day. Didn't matter for timing. It was still great. But my LP has always been 12 days and I'm now on 13 or 14 depending on the method. Not much of a bother though - I had a .9 degree temp drop this am almost to coverline and have been very lightly spotting since Sunday. CD 1 is inevitable at this point.
GTKY: I can't get into reality TV. Just can't. I don't have too much that I'm embarrassed by in my TV repertoire but I'm currently rewatching Gossip Girl and am a bit obsessed.
Me - 30 DH - 36 Married 10/12/13 TTC #1 since 10/15 Chart!
@aliciabhen I'm with you on the PLL! I started watching at the beginning and just simply cannot give it up no matter how many more seasons there are. And @JasTay8 ... I hate to break it to you but it's not over...a new season just started a few weeks ago. It's a flash forward season so they've now all graduated college. Definitely still geared toward a high school audience but I definitely still can't stop watching.
Month/Cycle: 6/6

Testing: No plans yet.
R/R/CS: Don't really have any big rants or raves! I'm happy it's Wednesday...this week has already felt like forever.
GTKY: What is your guilty pleasure TV Show/Movie? The one that you will bash to most and then secretly squee about watching. I'm going to second @JayJay1212 and say that I am not guilty about my TV habits although the majority of the shows I watch are pure trash. I figure I'm not watching TV to be intellectually stimulated so might as well go all out, ha! I love the Bachelor franchise (including any spin-offs/specials), Vanderpump Rules, and I admit that I still love the Real World and the Challenge on MTV. Ok, maybe I should actually be embarrassed.
Testing: I caved and tested this morning because my LP had been 9/10 days since D&C and today is 11 dpo. Big white stark BFN....but I'm happy my LP is a bit longer!
R/R/CS: Waiting for AF..I'm an irritable insatiably hungry crab today. I will be happy when I get my period so I can start the next month and hopefully have a decent try in March!!

BFP #1: 11/18/15 - CP BFP #2: 2/8/16 - EDD 10/20/16 IT'S A BOY!!!! DS Born 10/16/16
Testing: I tested yesterday and today...see below.
R/R/CS: I don't even know if I need to TW this but I am just in case. I'd rather be safe than sorry. I tested yesterday morning and posted on yesterday's TWW thread that I thought I saw something but it was so faint that I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me. I tested again yesterday evening after a 4 hour hold and saw the same faint line. This morning my temp shot way up, the highest post-O temp I've ever had, so I tested again...same faint line. I lined up yesterdays tests and this morning's test and can see something, I'm just not sure what. I asked H to look at them and he said he could see faint lines on all three, but advised me to not think too much about it and wait until tomorrow to test again. He offered to buy me FRER but I think i'll wait. Whatever I saw this morning wasn't much, if any, darker than yesterday, so idk if maybe I have a bad batch of Wondfo's or if its some kind of strange shadow line?? It looks like theres color to it but its SO LIGHT that I just have no idea. If H didn't see it this morning I would've thought I was crazy. I'm not considering it a faint bfp at this point because you seriously have to stare at the test until you go cross-eyed, but something caught me and H's eye. I'm trying not to obsess over it. I've been disappointed too many times in the last 15 months. I JUST DONT KNOW GUISE I also wonder if I could be 10dpo instead of 11...my chart is confusing.
GTKY: What is your guilty pleasure TV Show/Movie? The one that you will bash to most and then secretly squee about watching. Oh man, I have a ton. My Big Fat Gypsy Wedding, Teen Mom OG, and Antiques Roadshow. Don't judge.
Ugh. My heart is pounding for you right now @ShallowSeas! I can only imagine the anxiety you have right now. Fx for a darker line in the next few days!

@1017Shannon I'm watching Gilmore Girls too! I'm team Jess but I also like Logan. Something about him reminds me of Jon Bon Jovi.
@Winnie81 am on season 7, episode 11 and Logan is such a charmer this season!!! I like him too. And dean...but for some reason I'm stuck on Jess!?!
As I type I'm on S:7 E:3! I think I like Jess because he portrays a sensitive intellectual, and I'm glad they evolved him from his stubborn, bad boy phase. I honestly can't stand Dean, not after the scandal!

Testing: Probably Leap Day when I'll be 9 (or 10) DPO.
R/R/CS: I'm pretty sure I O'd on Saturday, but it could've been Friday. I did Letrozole and a Trigger this cycle. Trigger was given Thursday morning, so I could've O'd anytime between Friday morning and Saturday evening. I had a "full" feeling in my tummy Saturday morning, so maybe that was it? It was weird, wasn't cramps, just felt like I had a very full bladder, even when I didn't. RE said that may happen, so I didn't worry.
Regardless of if O was Friday or Saturday, we hit -1, which is great timing. I go back for a progesterone test tomorrow. Praying that it's normal, but if not, we'll do progesterone supplements. RE says to test a week from tomorrow, but I'll probably start a couple of days early because I'll be driving myself crazy.
GTKY: What is your guilty pleasure TV Show/Movie? The one that you will bash to most and then secretly squee about watching I refuse to feel guilty about my trash TV - I own it!

R/R/CS: Not much for me today. I'm not feeling great today but at least have more energy than yesterday. Had a temp drop this morning that won't mean anything until tomorrow's temp. I'm SS and have a touch of the BSC but am much more chill about things right now than I probably should be.

R/R/CS: This is going to sound like crazy talk but the last time I was KU, my average daily resting heart rate went up immediately on my FitBit right after implantation--it was like a really huge dramatic change (66 resting to 85 over the course of 5 days and it stayed that way for weeks). I had something that resembled implantation bleeding yesterday and the day before (just one-time spots each day, no continuous bleeding, very faint) and this morning I woke up to see my average resting heart rate went from 65 to 72. It seems maybe promising but AF is due in 2 days so I'm trying to not let myself overthink it for now.
GTKY: What is your guilty pleasure TV Show/Movie? I'm super embarrassed to admit to this but I love watching episodes of Maury Povich on YouTube. Like I really hate it (depressing to think of someone bringing on 10 different men for a paternity test) but also find it hilarious.
I'm with you on the heart rate thing! I was stalking the BMBs yesterday and saw this referenced, so of course I went to look at my FitBit stats. The last two weeks, my resting HR has been between 71 -76. So far this week, it's ranging from 76-82. I'm telling myself there are a multitude of reasons that it's gone up - I didn't work out Saturday - Tuesday, when I typically would have exercised three of those days. I've been on a girls trip, so maybe all of the planes, cruise ships, buses and Ubers had me unknowingly stressed (even though I sat on the beach for two days? Not stressful!)? I'm only 4 or 5 days DPO, so there's no way anything could be affecting my heart rate. I'm aware of this, but it doesn't stop the BSC speculation.
Me: 31; DH: 31 NTNP: May 2015 TTC #1: late August 2015 PCOS Dx: January 2016, starting Femara Feb 2016 BFP: 2/29/16 - Happy Leap Day!
@Winnie81@1017Shannon@MRSCORKER ok, so I had no idea about the revival episodes! Def team Luke/Jess. Logan was too high maintenance. I have some re-watching to doooo
-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*- My Personal, Frequently Changing Gif Party>>>
R/R/CS: My temp decreased but is staying well above the coverline. I'm trying to resist the urge to test today or tomorrow. I'm sure it's too early, but it's my days off and I'm just trying to stay busy and not think about it (ha).
GTKY: I secretly like watching reality tv -- Real Housewives, Vanderpump Rules...
@NordyMN89 thanks! Space cadet indeed he has been a specialist for 45 years though.
Ahh...not be ageist, but he could just be getting old and his memory isn't what it used to be! Still, if your level of care isn't meeting expectations, find a new one.

His age has certainly crossed my mind as being the culprit, but I honestly think he just has his hands full with patients. You're right though, I'll be finding a new RE

Testing: I had some dollars to use up so I splurge on a box of 3 clear blue with weeks indicator. Tested this morning BFN. Not really feeling like testing again now.
R/R/CS: I had a very high temp (for me) of 98.27 this am. But the hotel room was like an oven....I was seriously toasty. So I pulled the covers off and waited to cool down and then got 98.08 so went with that. Doesn't really matter I guess...

I have no shame so I probably wouldn't bash one I liked but I LOVE don't tell the bride.... SO does too ☺
@babymish I just had to giggle at this, because I will take anything that makes me smile today. Wouldn't that be nice if CD1 was also O day all the time?!
It wouldn't let me attach this to my post but I'm so unhappy with how my chart is pretty much identical to my Nov chart. It's just ridiculous and exactly why I don't want to temp anymore in the tww.
I don't know of pregnant charts are meant to look different to none pregnant charts
@babymish I was wondering the same thing. I was playing with chart overlay and my chart this month looks totally different than last month. But, it looks identical to a chart from October. I obviously wasn't KU either time, so I am no more wise now than I was before.
But also it's really early for you. I know it's hard, but try not to be too down about the BFN.

@babymish I just had to giggle at this, because I will take anything that makes me smile today. Wouldn't that be nice if CD1 was also O day all the time?!
@babymish On the bright side, your dip on 8DPO could qualify as an implantation dip this time (unlike November) since it was > 0.3 drop, not to start the BSC and I know you are travelling as well. Just trying to give some hope, it seems tomorrow may be the real test to see if it starts dropping. FX it goes up!
@wineo929 - understandable <hugs>. Hope to see you soon
@LeCool - LOL, I'll be in the same boat in a few days, running to pee so I don't cave lol
@beary67 - my OPK never turned dark enough to really be positive either this month but going off other signs I'm going with the day it was the darkest of them all.
@DiFazette - any chance you live in NC? I'm only asking because my boss texed me this morning telling me the same thing (and freaking out) and she's in NC.
Month/Cycle: 4/4
CD/DPO: 15/4 (or 15/5)
Timing: -6, -3, -2 (or -5, -2, -1)
Testing: Going to try to hold out till Monday
R/R/CS: Not much to rant about today. I just wish I knew for sure when I O'd but I guess a one day difference isn't too bad.
GTKY: What is your guilty pleasure TV Show/Movie? This Season, American Idol. DH hates it LOL. The truth is I stopped watching for many, many years but I figured with it being the last season I had to watch LOL
@Sparty18That's true....also I haven't mentioned this as i was trying to stay away from the crazy but I usually "test" my temp through the day because I get a kick out if the 98.6+ reading (sad I know know) but when I did it during the day on 7 dpo it was 97.6 which was really surprising.
Obviously I sat there thinking omg I'm implanting right now and stroked my belly to coax the egg along....
Fingers crossed that those squinters get darker and we get some more BFPs tomorrow!
@wineo929 sorry about the BFN. Take as much time away from the board as you need and I hope you feel better soon
Month/Cycle: 1/1
CD/DPO: 21/unknown
Timing: craptastic
Testing: testing every day til AF. BFN this morning, and not really feeling any symptoms, but I'll just keep trying as AF isn't due until next week. Not knowing when exactly I O'd means it could still be too early. Still, I'm not really getting my hopes up.
R/R/CS: nothing much
GTKY: What is your guilty pleasure TV Show/Movie? The one that you will bash to most and then secretly squee about watching? Say Yes to the Dress, definitely. I could watch that or Four Weddings all day. I also shamefully watch Family Guy and American Dad like every other day.
@babymish I also temp at random times throughout the day!! I have a relatively low BBT so it makes me super happy to see temps anywhere in the 98 range, ha.

@babymish omg. I did the exact same thing yesterday. When I saw that my temp went from 98.18 to 97.75, I totally had a little pep talk with my uterus throughout the day. Haha. Back up to 98.42 today!!! Hopefully my little pep talks worked!!! Hahaha.

Trigger was given Thursday morning, so I could've O'd anytime between Friday morning and Saturday evening. I had a "full" feeling in my tummy Saturday morning, so maybe that was it? It was weird, wasn't cramps, just felt like I had a very full bladder, even when I didn't. RE said that may happen, so I didn't worry.
Regardless of if O was Friday or Saturday, we hit -1, which is great timing. I go back for a progesterone test tomorrow. Praying that it's normal, but if not, we'll do progesterone supplements. RE says to test a week from tomorrow, but I'll probably start a couple of days early because I'll be driving myself crazy.
GTKY: What is your guilty pleasure TV Show/Movie? The one that you will bash to most and then secretly squee about watching
I refuse to feel guilty about my trash TV - I own it! Probably the "worst" ones are the Kardashians and Real Housewives of Atlanta - I'm thoroughly entertained by both and have no shame

Timing: -4, -3, -2, 0, 0
Testing: Maybe Friday or Saturday?
R/R/CS: Not much for me today. I'm not feeling great today but at least have more energy than yesterday. Had a temp drop this morning that won't mean anything until tomorrow's temp. I'm SS and have a touch of the BSC but am much more chill about things right now than I probably should be.

Gilmore Girls! Although I don't feel guilty at all. I've been watching it for years and can't wait for the revival on Netflix.

Month/Cycle: 2/2
CD/DPO: 25/7
Timing: -5, -4, -3, -2, 0
Testing: Trying to wait until 10 DPO
R/R/CS: My temp decreased but is staying well above the coverline. I'm trying to resist the urge to test today or tomorrow. I'm sure it's too early, but it's my days off and I'm just trying to stay busy and not think about it (ha).
GTKY: I secretly like watching reality tv -- Real Housewives, Vanderpump Rules...
Ahh...not be ageist, but he could just be getting old and his memory isn't what it used to be! Still, if your level of care isn't meeting expectations, find a new one.

Month/cycle 5/5
CD/DPO: 24/9
Timing: -5,-3,-2,-1
Testing: I had some dollars to use up so I splurge on a box of 3 clear blue with weeks indicator. Tested this morning BFN. Not really feeling like testing again now.
R/R/CS: I had a very high temp (for me) of 98.27 this am. But the hotel room was like an oven....I was seriously toasty. So I pulled the covers off and waited to cool down and then got 98.08 so went with that. Doesn't really matter I guess...

It wouldn't let me attach this to my post but I'm so unhappy with how my chart is pretty much identical to my Nov chart. It's just ridiculous and exactly why I don't want to temp anymore in the tww.
I don't know of pregnant charts are meant to look different to none pregnant charts

Testing: BFNs on 10-12DPO no plan to test again unless AF doesn't show in a few days. I expect she will show her unwelcome self tomorrow.
R/R/CS: I am definitely feeling bummed knowing I had 3 follies and an IUI and am BFN.
GTKY: I watch way too many reality shows. Top Chef, Master Chef, Project Runway, etc.

@ShallowSeas and @peachykeen17- FX it gets darker for you!
@wineo929 - understandable <hugs>. Hope to see you soon
@LeCool - LOL, I'll be in the same boat in a few days, running to pee so I don't cave lol
@beary67 - my OPK never turned dark enough to really be positive either this month but going off other signs I'm going with the day it was the darkest of them all.
@DiFazette - any chance you live in NC? I'm only asking because my boss texed me this morning telling me the same thing (and freaking out) and she's in NC.
Month/Cycle: 4/4
CD/DPO: 15/4 (or 15/5)
Timing: -6, -3, -2 (or -5, -2, -1)
Testing: Going to try to hold out till Monday
R/R/CS: Not much to rant about today. I just wish I knew for sure when I O'd but I guess a one day difference isn't too bad.
GTKY: What is your guilty pleasure TV Show/Movie? This Season, American Idol. DH hates it LOL. The truth is I stopped watching for many, many years but I figured with it being the last season I had to watch LOL
Edit: CD
Sorry for the bfns today. Fx'ed for the 2 potential bfps!
Obviously I sat there thinking omg I'm implanting right now and stroked my belly to coax the egg along....
TEAM: PINK!!
@wineo929 sorry about the BFN. Take as much time away from the board as you need and I hope you feel better soon
Month/Cycle: 1/1
CD/DPO: 21/unknown
Timing: craptastic
Testing: testing every day til AF. BFN this morning, and not really feeling any symptoms, but I'll just keep trying as AF isn't due until next week. Not knowing when exactly I O'd means it could still be too early. Still, I'm not really getting my hopes up.
R/R/CS: nothing much
GTKY: What is your guilty pleasure TV Show/Movie? The one that you will bash to most and then secretly squee about watching? Say Yes to the Dress, definitely. I could watch that or Four Weddings all day. I also shamefully watch Family Guy and American Dad like every other day.

IUI #2 - BFP 7/1/20 -- EDD 3/14/21
CD/DPO: Either 22 or 15 / ~8DPO
Timing: Accidentally decent despite surprise early ovulation
Testing: BFN so far, have been doing morning POAS because I can't help myself (and due to cycle ambiguity post-IUD)
R/R/CS: Super pumped to find out my partner will likely not need knee surgery after all! Doc has him doing some daily at-home PT and cutting out soda.
GTKY: What is your guilty pleasure TV Show/Movie? It's not that guilty, but I love Marvel: Agents of Shield while my partner and best friend HATE it. Best part of a sick day is catching up on what I missed!
