GTKY: Let's talk fashion! How do you like to dress/what's your style? Jeans and a hoodie or long sleeved t shirt when I am out and about. Pajamas or sweat pants the minute I am at home
R/R/CS: Going through "charts like mine" looking for some hope. There are >1000 charts with negatives before the first positive on 15dpo. I'm doubtful that will be the case here, but I'm trying to stay hopeful since AF still hasn't arrived. Other rant, jet lag caught up with me. I woke up at 2am and couldn't fall back to sleep. I work a 12 hour shift today with an hour commute on each side. Ugh.
GTKY: Scrubs! I'm always a little sad when I have to put on real clothes. When I'm not wearing scrubs, I just wear jeans and t shirts usually. I love sun dresses in the summer though!

R/R/CS: Trying to beat back the SS - and doing an okay job at best. In addition to zit-gate, I've also now discovered that that my tongue almost feels like it's gotten a paper cut in one spot. Super strange as I don't remember eating paper or anything else sharp recently. LOL. Now, could this be an early symptom? Sure! Dr. Google certainly says it could be a possibility. But so could tonight's martian landing, so..... Really trying here!!!
GTKY: Let's talk fashion! How do you like to dress/what's your style? I definitely love fashion - clothes, accessories, the whole nine. I would say my style is inspired by what's "in", but I'm not committed to doing what everyone else does either. These days, I lean "edgy", I guess - you're likely to find me in a healthy amount of black and grey (though I'm not afraid of color!), black leather booties, leggings, funky jewelry and a pop of red lipstick to offset my very short hair (something like when Rihanna first chopped her locks off). Fashion is a fun form of self-expression in my eyes!
Me: 36 | DH: 34 Married: May 2008 TTC #1 since August 2015 FET #1: November 4, 2016 BFP: November 13, 2016 EDD: July 25, 2017
Testing: BFN again this morning. Not counting myself out yet. But seriously want to stop peeing on things until I miss my period.
R/R/CS: I've been looking at charts on FF desperately trying to rationalize that I am totally KTFU...
GTKY: Let's talk fashion! How do you like to dress/what's your style?
I've alway been more of a tomboy. Jeans, tshirts, hoodies, sneakers lol. Drove my mother crazy. I dont think I voluntarily wore a dress until my wedding when I was 25. I still prefer the relaxed look and feel but am a little more grown up. I do like wearing dresses and skirts every so often, but I also rock my jeans and hoodies alot too. Fortunately for me my job did away with the dress code years ago and you can pretty much wear whatever you want.
R/R/CS: welp started spotting late yesterday afternoon. Still spotting today so I think tomorrow will be cd 1 and I'll be back in WTO. Hope to see lots of BFPs for the rest of you!
GTKY: hmmm. At work I'm usually classic, dresses and heels and stuff. If casual I like skinny jeans/leggings and blouses, or sometimes a more boho look depending on the day. At home I like my yoga pants or leggings, a tank top and a hoodie.
R/R/CS: Temp drop today. I thought FF would take away my CH because of it, but it just lowered my cover line. It makes my weird temps from the past few days look normal now, but it also seems really arbitrary to change the coverline.
GTKY: Let's talk fashion! How do you like to dress/what's your style?
I make a lot of my own clothes, so they're pretty unique but I'm not sure what I would describe the style as. I prefer skirts and dresses to pants, but I live in a cold climate so I hardly get to wear them ETA: I used to be a total tomboy and never wear skirts, but that changed while I was in college.
R/R/CS: my temp this morning confirmed O. So pleased it happened early and I got back in time for some good timing. I'm really pleased with it this month and can now relax on my holiday ☺
Rant - I've had the worst tummy bloating ever since Monday. It's so uncomfortable
GTKY: Let's talk fashion! How do you like to dress/what's your style?
I'd say fairly classic with a few 'on trend' pieces.
R/R/CS: Finally feel like I'm turning the corner on this cold. It's nice to be able to taste food again. Oh and it's also nice to see a high temp this morning. My first 3 post-O temps hovered just above coverline which seemed odd. Every other cycle I temped, the jump after O was always around .5-1 degrees. My temps this month are just all over the place so, overall not feeling all that optimistic about our chances this month.
GTKY: Let's talk fashion! How do you like to dress/what's your style? Comfortable. Simple. Jeans and a causal top is usually my go to. At home, yoga pants all the way.

@hupp0013 When I get home
from work, I’m literally in my PJ’s by 6 so I can relate. Lol
@zrain Sorry about the
rough night sleeping! I’m having some
trouble adjusting to the time change too.
@SongbirdintheCity Haha I
love the way you talk yourself off the SS ledge. It’s hilarious!
@JediAlly85 Sorry about
the BFN but yes, still not out!! I can’t
get my ass off of the charts like mine. I’ve officially graduated to BSC this
cycle so at least you’re not alone.
@SandwichLover Sorry about the impending CD 1, I’m hoping you’re
wrong!
@britters314 That’s so cool that you make a
lot of your own clothes. What an awesome talent to have!!!
@babymish Welcome back to the TWW. Wishing you all the best this cycle! Great timing!
@kellybean1988 Yeah, that is strange. I’m not sure.
I think your best bet is to wait a couple more days and see what your
temps do. Maybe FF will figure it out
then. That is really strange
though. Your high temps at the beginning
of your cycle are definitely throwing FF for a loop! FX it gets figured out soon though.
Month/Cycle: 5/4
CD/DPO: 27/9
Timing: -5, -4, -2, -1, 0
Testing: Friday/11dpo (if I plan on drinking
that night). If I don’t plan on drinking
I want to hold out until 12dpo at least.
R/R/CS: OMG my boobs. I couldn’t
even lie on my stomach last night they hurt so badly. This isn’t out of the ordinary though. This happens every couple cycles where they’re
unbearably tender. Glad it’s already Wednesday. I’m off work Friday so today is technically
my Thursday. That makes me happy but
also reminds me of how much I need to get done at work before then. The only problem… I cannot seem to get my
mind off of the TWW this cycle. I’m
officially going BSC with all the SS.
Seeing @MrsDho11 ’s BFP yesterday gave me some extra hope. So happy for her!
GTKY: Let's talk fashion! How do you like to
dress/what's your style? Hmm this is a tough one. I wouldn’t say that I have a specific
style. If I think it’s cute, I’ll rock
it!
*Chart stalk in R/R/CS* *somewhat long post alert*
Month/Cycle: 3
CD/DPO: 26/ totally unsure now
Timing: don't know lol
Testing: POAS this morning due to FF messing with my mind--BFN--See below.
R/R/CS: WTF is happening! FF moved my CH back to CD13 again today, but with a dotted line, which means they have no clue what is going on (and neither do I!) I thought CD20 was more logical due to CM signs, but with my temp today, it moved them back. So, of course the BSC lightswitch flipped on and I had to go pee on the one remaining stick I had in my house in case I actually AM 13dpo. It was of course a BFN, but this is also a test that has been out of the packaging for 2+ months because I thought I was going to use it, opened it and got it ready to pee on, and then AF showed up so I put it in a plastic baggie. It was kind of more faint than the last tests I've done, but def a BFN. What is happening? I don't know if I need to HIO more, expect AF, or just keep waiting to get further into DPO to test again. I am definitely getting more pee sticks tonight so I can test tomorrow for the green beer reason, but I am not sure what's going on. I caved and bought FF VIP in hopes that it may tell me something else. Even switching awareness method from Advanced to FAM left dotted CH at CD13. Any thoughts? I don't know what to think at this point! Also, I can't figure out how to overlay my current chart with my last ones, it will only let me overlay my previous ones? Weird. Here it is!
*TMI* In addition, I had the most minute amount of brown spotting last night on a panty liner (not on TP like normally 3 days before my period) and I'm like COULD IT BE IMPLANTATION BLEEDING of course. But if I'm really 13dpo, I would guess that it's early sign of AF...however, I don't have a drastic temp drop like normal before AF. Sigh. This is how crazy I am right now!!!!!! :
GTKY: Let's talk fashion! How do you like to dress/what's your style? This is a tough one for me. I like to be comfortable but also I would say my fashion sense is "eclectic". Lol I shop at Goodwill!
R/R/CS: I am still here! I am living yesterday and today moment-to-moment victories thinking AF is starting now and she doesn't. Here's the BSC, (which is also **TMI**): I've been constantly checking for spotting, thought I saw a tiny orange tint to CM, and only after swiping and wiping was there a hint of pink/orange. Devastated. Note spotting in FF. Bye LP. Then I realized this morning it was only when I did that, so maybe save spotting for like real spotting that shows up without your help and quit doing that? My temps are still well above the coverline but I'm pretty sure AF is going to show up like hahahahaNO today.
GTKY: Let's talk fashion! How do you like to dress/what's your style? I'm getting more "preppy" in style I guess, but it's definitely limited by my wardrobe budget.

R/R/CS: Just sitting here waiting for AF! This is the only bad thing about 15 - 16 day LP, PLEASE CD 1 get here! Slight cramping, acne, bloating, just overall look beautiful while waiting for AF. First time in my life that I have had any light spotting, but its more like *TMI* tinted CM. Super weird, my body is always surprising me!
GTKY: Let's talk fashion! How do you like to dress/what's your style? Well, I am pretty conservative during the day, manage a MD office, so basically JCrew is my capsule wardrobe. On the weekend, I like to be comfortable, I love Madewell!!!!

Testing: after BFN yesterday, I don't feel like testing anymore until my period doesn't come (but I may give in and dip a wondfo at some point).
R/R/CS: I'm a crazy cakes and am driving myself up the wall. Yesterday I googled "12 dpo bfn" to see how likely it was to still turn a positive test (I'm thankful for all the other crazies that have posted their life stories online haha!). I know it can still happen but I feel defeated this week. Boobs are killing me and I'm pretty sure it's PMS.
GTKY: When I'm at home, I live in yoga pants and t-shirts. When I'm out I usually wear skinny jeans and a longer shirt. I love flats and flip flops so I'm glad it's warm enough to wear them now! I also love purses and hope to someday actually buy a nice grown up purse.

@hupp0013 OMG PJ’s
and sweat pants the minute I get home too! Yes.
@zrain I wish I had a reason to wear scrubs. They are so
comfy. Maybe I will just buy them anywhere, wear them around the house, and pretend
I am on Grey’s Anatomy, lol.
@SongbirdintheCity Your
fashion sense sounds awesome! Gotta love the red lipstick. And I feel you about
the SS…see how BSC I am in my recent post, lol.
@JediAlly85 I have been looking at FF charts too doing the
same thing. Ugh! FX for you.
@SandwichLover Ahh so sorry you’re spotting and heading to
WTO. Hoping for a quick visit from AF and you can move on to your FW!
@britters314 Ahh FF obv did something weird to my chart
today too! So strange. I love that you make a lot of your own clothes, that is
so cool!
@babymish I am so glad you are feeling so great about this
month! Enjoy your holiday! Hope your bloating goes away soon!
@kfair001 my temps are DEF throwing FF for a loop!
Seriously! Ugh. I’m so sorry your boobs hurt so bad!! I hope that goes away for
you, and hoping it’s a good sign. Yeah, I was super excited about
@MrsDho11 ‘s BFP too!!!
@virginiaham I feel
you about the spotting BSC. I have definitely been in that boat before! Hoping
you get a good result tomorrow!
@Zoey1019 omg I HATE
waiting for AF once I know for sure she is gonna show. It is the absolute
worst. I hope you get it soon so you can move on to your FW!
@beff12 Oh girl I am with you on the BSC train. And I know I’m one of those other crazies,
lol, I’m cool with it!! I’m just glad I have all of you to relate to, or else
this journey would be miserable. Hoping you get some answers soon!

GTKY: Let's talk fashion! How do you like to dress/what's your style? I tend to dress classic/chic. I follow some trends, but as I get older I tend to pick more practical and classic items I can dress up or down.
@kellybean1988 thank you!! YES I'm so thankful for this board. No one IRL can understand my craziness about this so the TTGP board has been a game changer!

Testing: last night and today, both faint but they are there. Cautiously optimistic though nervous. **DETAILS NOTED have been away for work so no temping, less obsessing. Woke up w brown spotting yesterday, figured I was out. Sat outdoors for lunch and a bird pooped on my head. Flew home last evening, took a test to see if the bird-poop-good-luck thing panned out. It did. **DETAILS DONE
I don't post a ton so I hope this one is ok-- but have spent the last 10 months here and it has helped immeasurably. You are all so supportive and smart and articulate and just a lovely community. Thank you x 10!
Testing plans: Friday...maybe tomorrow depending on what my temp looks like.
R/R/CS: Well, my BSC got a gut-check this AM with a steep decline in temp. Not anywhere near coverline and very similar to my temp 3/4 days ago. The last 2 days of extremely high temps were when my BBT didn't beep...so I'm not-so-secretly hoping that the past 2 days temps should really be consistent with 3/4 days ago and today and my temps are really staying consistent, not dropping. This honestly would make more sense since yesterday's non-beep temp was 98.59 and then when I had been up for a while, a beeping temp was 98.4. So...it obviously should have been lower than that when taken at normal time without being "awake". My open circles are really, really giving my Type A a run for the money, but I've constantly been waking early to pee and/or have been having pretty significant insomnia. Oh whatever, BSC today too.... We'll see what my temps bring tomorrow.
GTKY: Comfort. Sweatpants as soon as I walk in the door. Generally jeans and a tshirt otherwise. Sometimes a pair of leggings and a tunic.
***TW: Multiple BFPs Mentioned (None of them mine)***
Hey ladies!
I am so sorry to post and ghost yet again this week! With midterms for my students and trying to get all of my grades in, all I can really do is lurk every so often during the day. I'm hoping I be able to come back later and respond!
Month/Cycle: 7/6
CD/DPO: 28/6
Timing: -4 (I finally went in to look at FF.)
Testing: None. I'm just waiting for AF to show her face.
R/R/CS: DH was a doll last night. After the delightful BFP on here last night, I heard from what felt like a million other people about their BFPs (when in reality it was like 4). I was really happy for everyone one minute and then wallowing in self-pity the next. He just held me and let me have my cry. I definitely remember him saying that I'll get my tests done soon and he'll get his done and then we'll have some answers. He was being so sweet and so comforting that it made me cry even harder because I feel like it's my fault that he won't be a father, because obviously he's going to be amazing. It was a rough day, but I got my tears out and now I'm feeling better. I am always super excited for people with their BFPs, but I definitely had a moment last night where I was convinced it's never going to be me.
GTKY: Let's talk fashion! How do you like to dress/what's your style? When I'm at work I dress like this (NOT ME IN THIS PICTURE!):
But when I'm at home I dress like this:
And somehow, DH still thinks I'm cute.
Edited because words are hard when I haven't had my coffee...
R/R/CS: I decided to go ahead and get my progesterone tested just in case, and for the Dr. to also know what to expect next cycle. I'm nervous about the results, because on 100mg of clomid my progesterone was only a 12. Good but it should be between 15-20 on a medicated cycle from everything i've read. So I'm anxious to see how "bad" it is. A rant would be that the new nurse stuck me and wiggled the needle around for a good 2 minutes before deciding she can't find the vein...i hate needles! But she was nice so its hard to be annoyed at a nice person.
GTKY: Let's talk fashion! How do you like to dress/what's your style? Currently - frumpalicious. It's one of my new years resultions to take more time on myself and look nicer. With the weight gain and the stress I just resolved to wearing baggy black clothes and my hair in a bun. Back when I was young, skinny and beautiful my style was VERY glitzy. I could outdress any of the Gypsy Sisters, big hair and all! Now I'm trying to go for the classic, sophisticated look.

Cycle: 4
CD/DPO: 24/12
Timing: -4, -3, -2, O
Testing: all BFNs
R/R/CS: So bloated-my work clothes barely fit this morning! I know I've put on some weight but nothing drives that home faster than trousers that won't zip! Just waiting on AF to arrive now-probably tonight or tomorrow.
GTKY: Let's talk fashion! How do you like to dress/what's your style? Work-suits, cardigans, etc. Home-yoga pants, tshirts
Testing: Well I kept saying I was waiting until Friday, but I tested this morning. BFN. Its still early, so maybe something good will happen in a few days.
R/R/CS: SS is bad this week. But it always is! Why do AF symptoms have to mimic pregnancy symptoms?!?!
GTKY: Let's talk fashion! How do you like to dress/what's your style? Lately, its been sweatpants/yoga pants & Tshirts. Been lazy lately.
@kellybean1988 Sorry your temps are wonky.. i'm not much of a chart reader (my own is very ugly this month) so i hope someone more experienced can help!
@kellybean1988 Isn't it so fun having a weird chart? Based on yours, I am not 100% convinced you O'd. What FF has is believable, but it isn't a super clear shift and the date is definitely not clear. I would keep HIO just in case, if I were you. ETA: Have you stopped paying attention to CM? You probably would have noticed if you got EWCM again, but if I were you I would pay attention to it again since your chart is so ambiguous right now.
@kellybean1988 I keep looking at your chart wanting to help, but it has me stumped a bit too. Which tells me it's possible you may not have O'd yet and I agree with @britters314 that there is not a clear shift. I'd keep HIO. I'd also recommend using OPKs if you aren't. They can sometimes help make things clear if your temps aren't cooperating. I'm still hoping your O day was CD20 so we can remain TWW buddies.
R/R/CS: well I think I should be here, if not I will hang my head and take the walk of shame back to WTO tomorrow. Chart attached if you want to judge for yourself. I sure as heck hope Ff has O right or else my timing will suck. DH has been working his ass off on some home renovations and I just couldn't get myself to push him to HIO last night to be safe. I just felt too bad he was so tired. Anyways, I love TWW so FX I'm here for good! I probably only love it because I spend 26 days in WTO and only 7 here lol... Hopefully the vitamin c+b6 and RRL tea will help with that!!!
GTKY: Let's talk fashion! How do you like to dress/what's your style? i have recently become more confident, wearing heals more (mostly heeled boots but I'm looking for some platform ankle booties now) I love black everything, I swear by skinny jeans and leggings, and I almost always have some type of cardigan/sweater over my tops in the cooler months
@britters314 and @Sparty18 , thanks for your feedback. I was worried maybe I haven't O'd yet either. I kind of did stop paying attention to CM so I guess I better start again, and maybe I will pick up some OPK's. This is so frustrating, thinking I'm WTO one day, TWW the next, and back to WTO. Oh well, such is life. Thanks again for your input, I'm gonna keep HIO and hoping for the best. Just trying not to freak out that it's CD26 and O may still not have happened, although I realize this is possible!

R/R/CS: Going through "charts like mine" looking for some hope. There are >1000 charts with negatives before the first positive on 15dpo. I'm doubtful that will be the case here, but I'm trying to stay hopeful since AF still hasn't arrived. Other rant, jet lag caught up with me. I woke up at 2am and couldn't fall back to sleep. I work a 12 hour shift today with an hour commute on each side. Ugh.
GTKY: Scrubs! I'm always a little sad when I have to put on real clothes. When I'm not wearing scrubs, I just wear jeans and t shirts usually. I love sun dresses in the summer though!

R/R/CS: Trying to beat back the SS - and doing an okay job at best. In addition to zit-gate, I've also now discovered that that my tongue almost feels like it's gotten a paper cut in one spot. Super strange as I don't remember eating paper or anything else sharp recently. LOL. Now, could this be an early symptom? Sure! Dr. Google certainly says it could be a possibility. But so could tonight's martian landing, so..... Really trying here!!!
GTKY: Let's talk fashion! How do you like to dress/what's your style? I definitely love fashion - clothes, accessories, the whole nine. I would say my style is inspired by what's "in", but I'm not committed to doing what everyone else does either. These days, I lean "edgy", I guess - you're likely to find me in a healthy amount of black and grey (though I'm not afraid of color!), black leather booties, leggings, funky jewelry and a pop of red lipstick to offset my very short hair (something like when Rihanna first chopped her locks off). Fashion is a fun form of self-expression in my eyes!

R/R/CS: I've been looking at charts on FF desperately trying to rationalize that I am totally KTFU...
GTKY: Let's talk fashion! How do you like to dress/what's your style?
I've alway been more of a tomboy. Jeans, tshirts, hoodies, sneakers lol. Drove my mother crazy. I dont think I voluntarily wore a dress until my wedding when I was 25. I still prefer the relaxed look and feel but am a little more grown up. I do like wearing dresses and skirts every so often, but I also rock my jeans and hoodies alot too. Fortunately for me my job did away with the dress code years ago and you can pretty much wear whatever you want.

Testing: none. I'm out.
R/R/CS: welp started spotting late yesterday afternoon. Still spotting today so I think tomorrow will be cd 1 and I'll be back in WTO. Hope to see lots of BFPs for the rest of you!
GTKY:
hmmm. At work I'm usually classic, dresses and heels and stuff. If casual I like skinny jeans/leggings and blouses, or sometimes a more boho look depending on the day. At home I like my yoga pants or leggings, a tank top and a hoodie.
CD/DPO: 25/12
Timing: -5, 0, +1
Testing: none anymore
R/R/CS: Temp drop today. I thought FF would take away my CH because of it, but it just lowered my cover line. It makes my weird temps from the past few days look normal now, but it also seems really arbitrary to change the coverline.
GTKY: Let's talk fashion! How do you like to dress/what's your style?
I make a lot of my own clothes, so they're pretty unique but I'm not sure what I would describe the style as. I prefer skirts and dresses to pants, but I live in a cold climate so I hardly get to wear them
ETA: I used to be a total tomboy and never wear skirts, but that changed while I was in college.
CD/DPO: 16/3
Timing: -2,-1,0,+1
Testing: unsure
R/R/CS: my temp this morning confirmed O. So pleased it happened early and I got back in time for some good timing. I'm really pleased with it this month and can now relax on my holiday ☺
Rant - I've had the worst tummy bloating ever since Monday. It's so uncomfortable
GTKY: Let's talk fashion! How do you like to dress/what's your style?
I'd say fairly classic with a few 'on trend' pieces.
TEAM: PINK!!
CD/DPO: 17/4
Timing: -1
Testing: If AF doesn't show (next Sat)
R/R/CS: Finally feel like I'm turning the corner on this cold. It's nice to be able to taste food again. Oh and it's also nice to see a high temp this morning. My first 3 post-O temps hovered just above coverline which seemed odd. Every other cycle I temped, the jump after O was always around .5-1 degrees. My temps this month are just all over the place so, overall not feeling all that optimistic about our chances this month.
GTKY: Let's talk fashion! How do you like to dress/what's your style? Comfortable. Simple. Jeans and a causal top is usually my go to. At home, yoga pants all the way.

@hupp0013 When I get home from work, I’m literally in my PJ’s by 6 so I can relate. Lol
@zrain Sorry about the rough night sleeping! I’m having some trouble adjusting to the time change too.
@SongbirdintheCity Haha I love the way you talk yourself off the SS ledge. It’s hilarious!
@JediAlly85 Sorry about the BFN but yes, still not out!! I can’t get my ass off of the charts like mine. I’ve officially graduated to BSC this cycle so at least you’re not alone.
@SandwichLover Sorry about the impending CD 1, I’m hoping you’re wrong!
@britters314 That’s so cool that you make a lot of your own clothes. What an awesome talent to have!!!
@babymish Welcome back to the TWW. Wishing you all the best this cycle! Great timing!
@juliebeannn Glad you’re feeling better!
@kellybean1988 Yeah, that is strange. I’m not sure. I think your best bet is to wait a couple more days and see what your temps do. Maybe FF will figure it out then. That is really strange though. Your high temps at the beginning of your cycle are definitely throwing FF for a loop! FX it gets figured out soon though.
Month/Cycle: 5/4
R/R/CS: OMG my boobs. I couldn’t even lie on my stomach last night they hurt so badly. This isn’t out of the ordinary though. This happens every couple cycles where they’re unbearably tender. Glad it’s already Wednesday. I’m off work Friday so today is technically my Thursday. That makes me happy but also reminds me of how much I need to get done at work before then. The only problem… I cannot seem to get my mind off of the TWW this cycle. I’m officially going BSC with all the SS. Seeing @MrsDho11 ’s BFP yesterday gave me some extra hope. So happy for her!CD/DPO: 27/9
Timing: -5, -4, -2, -1, 0
Testing: Friday/11dpo (if I plan on drinking that night). If I don’t plan on drinking I want to hold out until 12dpo at least.
GTKY: Let's talk fashion! How do you like to dress/what's your style? Hmm this is a tough one. I wouldn’t say that I have a specific style. If I think it’s cute, I’ll rock it!

Month/Cycle: 3
CD/DPO: 26/ totally unsure now
Timing: don't know lol
Testing: POAS this morning due to FF messing with my mind--BFN--See below.
R/R/CS: WTF is happening! FF moved my CH back to CD13 again today, but with a dotted line, which means they have no clue what is going on (and neither do I!) I thought CD20 was more logical due to CM signs, but with my temp today, it moved them back. So, of course the BSC lightswitch flipped on and I had to go pee on the one remaining stick I had in my house in case I actually AM 13dpo. It was of course a BFN, but this is also a test that has been out of the packaging for 2+ months because I thought I was going to use it, opened it and got it ready to pee on, and then AF showed up so I put it in a plastic baggie. It was kind of more faint than the last tests I've done, but def a BFN. What is happening? I don't know if I need to HIO more, expect AF, or just keep waiting to get further into DPO to test again. I am definitely getting more pee sticks tonight so I can test tomorrow for the green beer reason, but I am not sure what's going on. I caved and bought FF VIP in hopes that it may tell me something else. Even switching awareness method from Advanced to FAM left dotted CH at CD13. Any thoughts? I don't know what to think at this point! Also, I can't figure out how to overlay my current chart with my last ones, it will only let me overlay my previous ones? Weird. Here it is!
*TMI* In addition, I had the most minute amount of brown spotting last night on a panty liner (not on TP like normally 3 days before my period) and I'm like COULD IT BE IMPLANTATION BLEEDING of course. But if I'm really 13dpo, I would guess that it's early sign of AF...however, I don't have a drastic temp drop like normal before AF. Sigh. This is how crazy I am right now!!!!!! :
GTKY: Let's talk fashion! How do you like to dress/what's your style? This is a tough one for me. I like to be comfortable but also I would say my fashion sense is "eclectic". Lol I shop at Goodwill!

Testing: tomorrow!!
R/R/CS: I am still here! I am living yesterday and today moment-to-moment victories thinking AF is starting now and she doesn't. Here's the BSC, (which is also **TMI**): I've been constantly checking for spotting, thought I saw a tiny orange tint to CM, and only after swiping and wiping was there a hint of pink/orange. Devastated. Note spotting in FF. Bye LP. Then I realized this morning it was only when I did that, so maybe save spotting for like real spotting that shows up without your help and quit doing that? My temps are still well above the coverline but I'm pretty sure AF is going to show up like hahahahaNO today.
GTKY: Let's talk fashion! How do you like to dress/what's your style? I'm getting more "preppy" in style I guess, but it's definitely limited by my wardrobe budget.

Testing: after BFN yesterday, I don't feel like testing anymore until my period doesn't come (but I may give in and dip a wondfo at some point).
R/R/CS: I'm a crazy cakes and am driving myself up the wall. Yesterday I googled "12 dpo bfn" to see how likely it was to still turn a positive test (I'm thankful for all the other crazies that have posted their life stories online haha!). I know it can still happen but I feel defeated
this week. Boobs are killing me and I'm pretty sure it's PMS.
GTKY: When I'm at home, I live in yoga pants and t-shirts. When I'm out I usually wear skinny jeans and a longer shirt. I love flats and flip flops so I'm glad it's warm enough to wear them now! I also love purses and hope to someday actually buy a nice grown up purse.

@zrain I wish I had a reason to wear scrubs. They are so comfy. Maybe I will just buy them anywhere, wear them around the house, and pretend I am on Grey’s Anatomy, lol.
@SongbirdintheCity Your fashion sense sounds awesome! Gotta love the red lipstick. And I feel you about the SS…see how BSC I am in my recent post, lol.
@JediAlly85 I have been looking at FF charts too doing the same thing. Ugh! FX for you.
@SandwichLover Ahh so sorry you’re spotting and heading to WTO. Hoping for a quick visit from AF and you can move on to your FW!
@britters314 Ahh FF obv did something weird to my chart today too! So strange. I love that you make a lot of your own clothes, that is so cool!
@babymish I am so glad you are feeling so great about this month! Enjoy your holiday! Hope your bloating goes away soon!
@juliebeannn LOVE ME SOME YOGA PANTS
@kfair001 my temps are DEF throwing FF for a loop! Seriously! Ugh. I’m so sorry your boobs hurt so bad!! I hope that goes away for you, and hoping it’s a good sign. Yeah, I was super excited about @MrsDho11 ‘s BFP too!!!
@virginiaham I feel you about the spotting BSC. I have definitely been in that boat before! Hoping you get a good result tomorrow!
@Zoey1019 omg I HATE waiting for AF once I know for sure she is gonna show. It is the absolute worst. I hope you get it soon so you can move on to your FW!
@beff12 Oh girl I am with you on the BSC train. And I know I’m one of those other crazies, lol, I’m cool with it!! I’m just glad I have all of you to relate to, or else this journey would be miserable. Hoping you get some answers soon!

have been away for work so no temping, less obsessing. Woke up w brown spotting yesterday, figured I was out. Sat outdoors for lunch and a bird pooped on my head. Flew home last evening, took a test to see if the bird-poop-good-luck thing panned out. It did.

I don't post a ton so I hope this one is ok-- but have spent the last 10 months here and it has helped immeasurably. You are all so supportive and smart and articulate and just a lovely community. Thank you x 10!

CD/DPO: 29/12
Timing: -5x2, -4, -1, O, +1
Testing plans: Friday...maybe tomorrow depending on what my temp looks like.
R/R/CS: Well, my BSC got a gut-check this AM with a steep decline in temp. Not anywhere near coverline and very similar to my temp 3/4 days ago. The last 2 days of extremely high temps were when my BBT didn't beep...so I'm not-so-secretly hoping that the past 2 days temps should really be consistent with 3/4 days ago and today and my temps are really staying consistent, not dropping. This honestly would make more sense since yesterday's non-beep temp was 98.59 and then when I had been up for a while, a beeping temp was 98.4. So...it obviously should have been lower than that when taken at normal time without being "awake". My open circles are really, really giving my Type A a run for the money, but I've constantly been waking early to pee and/or have been having pretty significant insomnia. Oh whatever, BSC today too....
We'll see what my temps bring tomorrow.
GTKY: Comfort. Sweatpants as soon as I walk in the door. Generally jeans and a tshirt otherwise. Sometimes a pair of leggings and a tunic.

Hey ladies!
I am so sorry to post and ghost yet again this week! With midterms for my students and trying to get all of my grades in, all I can really do is lurk every so often during the day. I'm hoping I be able to come back later and respond!
Month/Cycle: 7/6
CD/DPO: 28/6
Timing: -4 (I finally went in to look at FF.)
Testing: None. I'm just waiting for AF to show her face.
R/R/CS: DH was a doll last night. After the delightful BFP on here last night, I heard from what felt like a million other people about their BFPs (when in reality it was like 4). I was really happy for everyone one minute and then wallowing in self-pity the next. He just held me and let me have my cry. I definitely remember him saying that I'll get my tests done soon and he'll get his done and then we'll have some answers. He was being so sweet and so comforting that it made me cry even harder because I feel like it's my fault that he won't be a father, because obviously he's going to be amazing. It was a rough day, but I got my tears out and now I'm feeling better. I am always super excited for people with their BFPs, but I definitely had a moment last night where I was convinced it's never going to be me.
GTKY: Let's talk fashion! How do you like to dress/what's your style?

R/R/CS: I decided to go ahead and get my progesterone tested just in case, and for the Dr. to also know what to expect next cycle. I'm nervous about the results, because on 100mg of clomid my progesterone was only a 12. Good but it should be between 15-20 on a medicated cycle from everything i've read. So I'm anxious to see how "bad" it is. A rant would be that the new nurse stuck me and wiggled the needle around for a good 2 minutes before deciding she can't find the vein...i hate needles! But she was nice so its hard to be annoyed at a nice person.
GTKY: Let's talk fashion! How do you like to dress/what's your style? Currently - frumpalicious. It's one of my new years resultions to take more time on myself and look nicer. With the weight gain and the stress I just resolved to wearing baggy black clothes and my hair in a bun. Back when I was young, skinny and beautiful my style was VERY glitzy. I could outdress any of the Gypsy Sisters, big hair and all! Now I'm trying to go for the classic, sophisticated look.

CD/DPO: 18/4 (I'm pretty sure. I see a shift right before fever days)
Timing: -2, +1, +4 (just in case the fever screwed with O)
Testing: not bothering to get my hopes up, we'll see if AF is late
R/R/CS: my mom is getting her stent out today so yay for that! DS has an ear infection which explains the fever and headache (though if he's like me, he'll end up with a headache every time he has a fever) and I'm existing lol tomorrow is the last day of meds for shingles which are starting to heal up now.
GTKY: Let's talk fashion! How do you like to dress/what's your style? I'm a fan of casual, jeans/jeggings (yeah, I'm awesome like that lol) tunic length tops with leggings. I like a lot of tops similar to what Ree Drummond wears (pioneer woman) I'll do skirts or dresses but only when I have to. I desperately want to wear them but I just can't because I feel like I have to wear bike shorts under them But....
lol I love that!
ETA: Around the house lounging or working I'm all for some yoga pants/capris and t shirts. Also, I do not own a single pair of shorts. the shortest I go in the summer is capris/walking shorts (the ones that are knee length and fitted)

@kristen627 Congratulations!
ETA (haven't had caffeine yet!): sorry to all of the BFNs and CD1s
Cycle: 4
CD/DPO: 24/12
Timing: -4, -3, -2, O
Testing: all BFNs
R/R/CS: So bloated-my work clothes barely fit this morning! I know I've put on some weight but nothing drives that home faster than trousers that won't zip! Just waiting on AF to arrive now-probably tonight or tomorrow.
GTKY: Let's talk fashion! How do you like to dress/what's your style?
Work-suits, cardigans, etc.
Home-yoga pants, tshirts
CD/DPO: 28/9
Timing: -3, -2, -1, 0, 1
Testing: Well I kept saying I was waiting until Friday, but I tested this morning. BFN. Its still early, so maybe something good will happen in a few days.
R/R/CS: SS is bad this week. But it always is! Why do AF symptoms have to mimic pregnancy symptoms?!?!
GTKY: Let's talk fashion! How do you like to dress/what's your style? Lately, its been sweatpants/yoga pants & Tshirts. Been lazy lately.
I'll be over on WTO when I manage to wake up for real. I'm only awake because DH had to go into work early and couldn't find an undershirt.
FX for all of you. Hopefully no one has to join me.

@hupp0013 I love putting on my "comfortables" as H and I call them as soon as i get home too!
@zrain sorry for the BFNs and jet lag
@Songbirdinthecity Your style sounds awesome! I loved when I had a funky short hair cut too. I definitely wore more jewelry and makeup then.
@JediAlly85 Sorry for the BFN!
@britters314 Sorry for the temp drop. How awesome that you make clothes!
@babymish glad your temp confirmed O and you can relax on your holiday!
@juliebeannn glad you're feeling better now!
@kellybean1988 Sorry your temps are wonky.. i'm not much of a chart reader (my own is very ugly this month) so i hope someone more experienced can help!
@virginiaham FX for you tomorrow!
@Zoey1019 sorry for the BFN!
@beff12 I know those BSC google searches well...
@Sparty19 enjoy the BSC free days of TWW, haha. That's a funny and true statement.
@Kristen627 congrats on the BFP!!!
@Berkebaby love those mint pants! and Hugs to you. I'm sorry you had a rough evening but DH sounds like a sweetie.
@juliehollz13 good luck on the progesterone testing. I love watching the gypsy sisters, haha!
@ladystinson glad your mom is getting her stent out but sorry to hear DS is getting sick!
@CajunSnowWhite89 sorry for CD1. I'm sure I'll be joining you tomorrow.
@mtvkv5 FX for you - its still early!
@20T sorry for the BFNS!
@kfair001 FX for you and good luck holding out on testing!
ETA: Have you stopped paying attention to CM? You probably would have noticed if you got EWCM again, but if I were you I would pay attention to it again since your chart is so ambiguous right now.
CD/DPO: 26/3
Timing: -5,-3,-2,0
Testing: ha... We'll see
R/R/CS: well I think I should be here, if not I will hang my head and take the walk of shame back to WTO tomorrow. Chart attached if you want to judge for yourself. I sure as heck hope Ff has O right or else my timing will suck. DH has been working his ass off on some home renovations and I just couldn't get myself to push him to HIO last night to be safe. I just felt too bad he was so tired. Anyways, I love TWW so FX I'm here for good! I probably only love it because I spend 26 days in WTO and only 7 here lol... Hopefully the vitamin c+b6 and RRL tea will help with that!!!
GTKY: Let's talk fashion! How do you like to dress/what's your style?
i have recently become more confident, wearing heals more (mostly heeled boots but I'm looking for some platform ankle booties now) I love black everything, I swear by skinny jeans and leggings, and I almost always have some type of cardigan/sweater over my tops in the cooler months
