WAYDTGKU: Waiting for my crosshairs!

R/R/CS: So my temp did stay elevated this morning, YAY! After my 4:15 alarm and taking my temp I went to the bathroom and when I came back DH was half asleep and goes "how's your temp?" I was like "it's good!" And he goes "I'm glad, my penis needs a break". Oh DH, always the charmer. Now that being said my BSC has come out in full swing. I actually woke up at 2am and had to use the bathroom so I temped and it was 97.04, which is .4 lower than it was yesterday. Still above what would have been but I wasn't thrilled. When I took it at my normal time it was 97.35. When I enter those temps into FF one (the first lower one) gives me crosshairs and says I O'd 3 days ago. The other temp gives me no crosshairs unless I have a temp spike tomorrow and says I O'd two days ago. I've split the average and it sticks with scenario two. I've also switched to FAM and research mode just to see what it says. I really don't understand my body this month or know what to believe but I had an almost positive OPK on Sunday of this week that was then stark white the next day, and I had fertile CM for a full week that just ended today! Either way I just hope my temp stays up so I can feel confident I O'd at some point. End rant. 

GTKY: I think I had this one before and I wasn't sure but DH said Jenna Fischer and I could see it personality wise! Plus she's gorgeous so I would be honored.

Month/Cycle: 1/1

CD: 10

WAYDTGKU: BBT, OPK, PNV+ DHA, CM

R/R/CS: No temping today ugh. I got woken up by my dog freaking out and barking, so of course I just had to walk around the entire house to check all the doors and windows... totally creepy since H is already at work and it's dark! Any who, now that I'm thoroughly creeped out I'm going to try to go back to sleep for a couple hours, happy to bump early though, maybe I can actually get comments done today before work for once!

GTKY: What actress would play you in the movie of your life? Hayden Panittiere. She's probably the most similar to me looks wise, minus her being super thin, and that I am not.

WAYDTGKU: Waiting for AF to leave...

R/R/CS: Last two days have been rough. Yesterday bump wouldnt even let me post. And being it was Cd 2 after another very promising cycle I just gave up. I ended up taking yesterday off. I had a job interview in the morning and could have just went in for a half day but I was just so upset. We've been doing everything we can possibly do. I gave up caffeine completely which was not easy since i love my coffee. I was eating as healthy as I could, we BD'd so much we were both sick of it, but ended up getting perfect timing. And still nothing. I know it takes a healthy couple up to a year and I have PCOS so I know that doesnt help. But I know I am ovulating I'm getting a clear temp shift every month and we are BDing great timing every cycle and I just don't get it. 

This 6 month mark was not an easy one to take. There will be no 2016 baby for us and that was also hard to take. But onto 2017 baby I hope. 

GTKY: What actress would play you in the movie of your life? 

I think last time we did this I said Tina Fey cause she is hilarious and fits me pretty well.

Good Morning Ladies!! 

Month/Cycle: 13/16

CD: 6

Clomid + IUI #3 + progesterone & IVF consult

R/R/CS: my BSC sister had her baby earlier this week and texted multiple times in the middle of the night to rub it in that she has a baby and I don't. She knows we are struggling but apparently having a baby was a competition that she won

GTKY: What actress would play you in the movie of your life? Natalie Portman

Steelerfan78

@AliciaGoose Sorry if the GTKY had been done before, I'm still sort of new to this board. I think H said the same thing to me the other day. Haha! 

@LittleChick2 Our puppy has been waking up early lately and I can relate to the temping issues it causes. Hope you get some extra sleep in. 

@JediAlly85@LadyMillil So sorry you are having touch days. Hope things get better soon! 

Month/Cycle: 14/6

CD: 26

WAYDTGKU: anything & everything 

R/R/CS: I spent yesterday messing around with the chart overlay feature on FF. I was able to sort of line up a pattern and it looks like I may O tomorrow. Of course I've thought that the past 2 weekends, so who knows at this point... Just going to try to stay optimistic and keep HIO ED. 

GTKY: Amy Schumer. H thinks we look alike, probably because we both have chubby cheeks and blonde hair. I just love her sense of humor. 

ETA: Good luck @mrsdaddario !! Hope all goes well today! FX

Month plus cycle: 8/4

CD: 8

WAYDTGKU:  Metformin, PNV, P in V, temping 

R/R/CS:  I feel like @mrsdaddario yesterday and Annie because I'm singing tomorrow haha. I took an OPK this morning and it was very negative. I've never had a positive one but I don't know if I've ever had one this negative… Maybe that's a good thing? Haha. Sure.  

GTKY:  Maybe Blake Lively... But I'm brunette, flat chested, and not that thin... Things are always better in the movies

danceitout

Hopping over to the TWW board but wanted to thank everybody for the answers yesterday! Totally didn't mean to ignore them. I thought I had changed my notification settings and apparently didn't, so I didn't even see your responses until this morning.  FX that everyone has a great day!

houseofsetters

Briefly coming out of hiding, @mrsdaddario , to let you know I've got all my fingers crossed for your RE consult!! Thinking of you today! 

leekat14

Shout out to @kfair001 and @minipig90 who appear to be joining me with CD1


Month/Cycle: 5/4CD: 1 boooooooo
WAYDTGKU: nothing. Drinking beer and eating bad food because I can.  I do plan to try to do something to get H out of his rut before FW. See below
R/R/CS:  long rant sorry...so...due to some performance issues H is avoiding the one thing that we need to make a baby.  I am open for any ideas to help.  He's seen a dr and they  ruled out medical issues which is almost worse for him because he has it in his head that he can't perform and I don't know what to do.  My goal is to try to focus on time together, snuggling and fun stuff so that maybe something is rekindled.  I just don't know what to do.  and now that my cycle is back on a shorter cycle he might be gone for most of FW making timing even more important. I'm not talking about where I'm at in my cycle hoping I can just start seducing him all the time and he won't get stressed that it is important.  He doesn't even know AF started, probably thinks there is still a chance this month. Ok, I'm done. Thanks for reading
GTKY: What actress would play you in the movie of your life? 
Sandra Bullock.  Funny, doesn't seem to take herself seriously
Edit because mobile bump SUCKS

WAYDTGKU: usual stuff

R/R/CS: Today should be O day! Positive OPK last night so just trying to convince H to keep going today and tomorrow! 

GTKY: What actress would play you in the movie of your life? Katie Holmes in the face I guess, definitely not the body!

FrancesGrace630

@JediAlly85 I know how you feel, the 6 month mark was hard and so was moving on to a 2017 prospective baby. Hugs.

Month/cycle: 10/10

CD: 10

WAYDTGKU: My first acupuncture appointment is today! I'm so excited! + all the other stuff.

R/R/CS: I'm excited for acupuncture, it's a beautiful day out, and it's almost the weekend! I'm in a good mood today

GTKY: Rashida Jones, bc DH finds her attractive haha

GTKY: What actress would play you in the movie of your life? Emma Stone!

felix08

My suspicions were confirmed this morning that I O'd on CD16. Just wanted to tell you ladies this was an enjoyable WTO window with all of you (seriously, seemed to go by faster than normal) and I hope to see you over in TWW soon!

Also, I will be lurking to get an update from @mrsdaddario ! FX your appointment is everything you dreamed it would be (and that DH was in a pleasant mood). 

sLass42

@aliciagoose FF makes me crazy somtimes, Fx for solid crosshairs.

@jedially85 The 6 month mark is hard. Fx for 2017 being the year!

@steelerfan78 Keep HIO, Fx!

@leekat14 Might be time for a mini vacation or something relaxing and ttc related. We'll book a jacuzzi hotel room for one night sometimes just to take our mind off things. 

@20t yay for O day!

Month/Cycle: 8/7

CD: 6

WAYDTGKU: all the things. Hio, RRL tea, prenatals, opks, ordered ttc astroglide (it's like preseed)

R/R/CS: AF has left the building. Just waiting to get far enough in to start using opks and poas obsessively. Temps are still rocky since I can't wake up consistently, but I feel better having them charted. I'm relying more on opk, cm, and cp and using temps as backup to confirm O. I feel good about this cycle, I'm prepared like a disaster prepper...bring it on!

GTKY: What actress would play you in the movie of your life? 

Emma Watson. But dorky & weird Emma Watson, not glamorous Emma. 

[Deleted User]

Month/Cycle: 1/1

CD: 12

WAYDTGKU: Sex EOD until O, pnv, coq10, bbt, opk, and all those type things.

R/R/CS:H expressed how he was actually starting to get less excited about the sex part of this whole thing.  First time in our whole relationship he has expressed that - and we are only doing every other day!  Hah, poor guy.  I don't think we will ever be that couple that does it every single day.

GTKY: What actress would play you in the movie of your life? Isla Fisher or Amy Adams!

TheJerilu

Month/Cycle: 3/3

CD: 13

WAYDTGKU: OPK, RLT, PNV

R/R/CS: 

GTKY: What actress would play you in the movie of your life? 

Melissa McCarthy or Zooey Deschanel, methinks.

MonaLisaRalphio

Month/Cycle: 6/5

CD: 10... does anyone else have to look at FF every single day to remember what CD it is?  I never forget DPO (because BSC), but I lose track of CD.

WAYDTGKU: BBT, PNV, GDTPT (Goin' Down To Pound Town... I'm making GDTPT happen and you can't stop me.) ED

R/R/CS: Feeling a little less like a brat than I was yesterday.  Early WTO gets me kind of restless and pissy.  I am also noticing some slight watery CM today, which is, like, five days earlier than last cycle and two weeks earlier than previous cycles.  It's so weird to not have 3 weeks of waiting after AF for things to start happening!

GTKY: What actress would play you in the movie of your life? People always say I look like that brunette who was in Twilight, I think?  Ashley something or other?  But personally, I would pick Jennifer Lawrence because BFF.

SnobunnieMel

Month/Cycle: 6/4 with an mc and a cp in there

CD: 6

WAYDTGKU: PNV, bbt, OPK, fertilaid, fertilecm, ovaboost, myo inositol, getting ready for the weekend to start sexing it up 

R/R/CS: don't think I have much here today. Made my first acupuncture appointment for Saturday 

GTKY: What actress would play you in the movie of your life? Katherine Heigl. I have heard for so many years I look exactly like here. Especially her early greys anatomy years, the first 2 the most. Doesn't help I work in surgery. 

beary67

@mrsdaddario I hope your appointment goes well today!   FX for you!

@20T YAY for today being O day!  BOO for no longer being cycle buddies  

Month/Cycle: 6/6

CD: 11

WAYDTGKU:  BBT, OPKs, CM, Sex EOD, Exercise, Yoga, Acupuncture 

R/R/CS:  Work has been super busy lately so I'm sorry I haven't been the best Bumpie lately!  I still love y'all dearly!  

GTKY: Zoey Deschanel or Mindy Kaling

sammajane19

@mrsdaddario looking forward to an update from you on your first RE appt! fx it goes well!

Month/Cycle: 6/4

CD: 25

WAYDTGKU:  Clomid + Ovidrel, Metformin, HIO

R/R/CS:  Day 3 of my first round of Clomid. No real negative side effects yet, other than bloating and random, mild twinges/cramps in my lower abdomen...but that could be anything. Just hopin and prayin that I actually respond to this. I go back in on Tuesday. 

GTKY: Emma Watson or Sandra Bullock. 

KristoKekerooni

Month/Cycle: 20/20

CD: 14

WAYDTGKU: Errr'ytang

R/R/CS:So irritated. I told my hubs that we needed to HIP every other day till at least Sunday, since I haven't temped or OPKed this round. I normally O right on schedule, so I haven't been too stressed, I figured we would just have sex and be good. So last night was one of our EOD HIO days, and he won't have sex with me. And I am gradually got more and more ticked as he kept rejected sex and telling me "later" (because like, I have a job and midnight is too late!) and finally I just flipped because I was pissed. Like, literally all you have to do is have sex with your wife. I'm sorry you live such a terrible life and that's a burden for you. But I'm sorry, suck it the fuck up. I'm so angry because I am certain today I am Oing and the last time we had sex was 3 days ago. I know the sperm can last five days or whatever, but he already has sperm issues, so I doubt the five days rings true to him.I'm so angry. This happens every month, you think I'd be prepared for it.  

GTKY: What actress would play you in the movie of your life? 

Don't know, don't care. 

PepperAT

**Lurking**

 @AliciaGoose  Yay for a temp rise! I have been crossing my fingers for you. lol to your Hs comment.

 @mrsdaddario I came to check it for an update, but just wanted to wish you luck on your appt today and  hope everything goes well. Your DH better stay in check.

MamaCoffin

Month/Cycle: 6/4

WAYDTGKU: nothing right now 

R/R/CS: allergies. 

GTKY: What actress would play you in the movie of your life? 

She's got a decade on me but I've been told I look like Winona Ryder at least once a week since I was about 10. I'll take it.

Aurora1973

Month/cycle:  4/5

CD:  8

WAYDTGKU:  Charting, PNV, EPO, CoQ10, Mucinex, OPKs, oh, and started RRL tea, HIO when OH and I are in the same zip code

R/R/CS:  The other night, I was discussing his check-up with his doctor with OH, and he mentioned that his doc wants to do additional blood work.  Apparently OH told him that he feels like his energy has gone down in the last year, so he wants to test for low testosterone.  I haven't researched it heavily, because I'm totally scared to, you guys, but I did see enough to know that this could also mean sperm issues, and I'm so trying not to freak the eff out.  My stepson was conceived about 5 years ago, so who knows what has changed.  I honestly don't think his testosterone is low, but the BSC may get the better of me.  I should know more next week. 

GTKY:  LOL, a few years ago when I was single and online dating (as well as meeting guys other ways), this was a question on the site I was on.  I think my answer is still the same, Rachel McAdams.  We don't really look alike, but I feel like she would nail it...and I think as a back-up, Emma Stone would totally bring it for my particular brand of snark.


Definitely brunette Rachel...blonde Rachel just couldn't pull it off.

Month/Cycle:  8/7 (1st cycle TTCAL)

CD:  22

WAYDTGKU:  charts, temps, vitamins/coq10, sex again in May

R/R/CS:  No O in sight, which I should have expected more than I did.  It could happen any day now and even if it doesn't, CDs1-21 are all behind me, so that's feeling like a win today.  ***TW pregnancy mentioned***  Last night I lurked HDBD threads on like 3 different BMBs.  Is that creepy?  It wasn't really torture but more just a reminder to me that several of those women have a lot of history, waiting and tears behind their bumps.  I'm still in the waiting part, and today is important even though I'm sad, frustrated and impatient.  But, today is important.  And now you all may read and know all of my current head games.

GTKY: What actress would play you in the movie of your life?  Katherine Heigl.

WAYDTGKU: Waiting for AF to leave...

R/R/CS: Happy that once I knew I wasn't pregnant, I didn't have to wait long for AF to come.  Bummed about having to try again, though.  

GTKY: What actress would play you in the movie of your life? I want to say Emma Watson, as I have a huge Hermione obsession

@leekat14 I can relate.  Last cycle, we had this weird thing going on where he kept slipping out...It may be a case of two much lubricant or not enough arousal.  In any case, once he slipped out, he would loose the erection, and we'd have to work back up to it again. When he'd finish, he wouldn't be very far in.  I'm trying to put less pressure on him and rekindle the fun with more cuddling, foreplay, etc.  Good luck!

meilay

@MonaLisaRalphio Yes! I pull out my phone and check every time I'm getting ready to post. I actually always have the right day in mind but feel like I'm going to get it wrong when I go to write it. 
@mrsdaddario hoping for a positive appointment and no orange jumpsuits!   

Month/Cycle: 3/3

CD: 8
WAYDTGKU: OPKs, BD ED in FW
R/R/CS: Finally got back in the gym yesterday and I always feel so great. I don't get why it's so hard for me to make it a habit. Didn't drink enough water and I'm paying for it with a horrible headache. 
GTKY: What actress would play you in the movie of your life? No idea based on looks but I would choose Maya Rudolph based on personality.
Edited because formatting is being a jerk even though I'm not on mobile.

WAYDTGKU: So much patience. 

R/R/CS: A coworker left the company and left a plant behind that no one really wants. I felt bad just throwing it out so I listed it for free on Craigslist just to see if someone might want it. You would not believe the number of responses I've gotten in less than a day. It's insane! 

GTKY: What actress would play you in the movie of your life? Kristen Bell or Aubrey Plaza. I feel like if they were just normal people and we met, we could definitely be friends. They're both funny, take zero crap, but are nice. They're like prettier, skinnier, richer, generally better versions of me.

ETA: FX for those of you with RE appointments today/tomorrow! I'm thinking about you!!

aammyy33

@virginianham I do that too! Also have slowly been working my way back through birth announcements. SO MANY, I think I'm on Dec'15 right now. Maybe it is creepy but as long as I'm not having a really bad TTC day, it gives me hope that one day I may be posting an update like that!

Month/cycle: 5/1

CD: 116

WAYDTGKU: PNV, back to HIO because IDGAF anymore.

R/R/CS: Mostly just came here to see if @Mrsdaddario posted yet! Not having a very exciting day, which isn't a bad thing. I'm so busy on Tuesdays and Wednesdays I don't ever get a chance to check in, so have to lurk all the threads when I come back.  So just relaxing, having a drink and catching up. Oh and watching my dogs meticulously pull every single dog toy out of the bin that I just spent the morning picking up!

GTKY: Hilary Duff. Same age-ish and look similar, seems like she'd be a nice person and very down to earth IRL and is prettier, skinnier and richer than me.

krisnicole23

Month/Cycle: 2/2

CD: 5

WAYDTGKU: Just going to wing it.

R/R/CS: No charting, no temping, no opk this month.  Just going to do our thing and see what happens.  

   Going to try make this month as stress free as possible.

GTKY: What actress would play you in the movie of your life?  Definitely Emily Blunt.  Same body type (I'm just a few inches shorter).  Her street style in pretty much my every day wear.

LadyBrettAshley23

Month/Cycle: 3/4

CD: 3

WAYDTGKU: prenatals + DHA (temping and CM soon, EOD/ED during FW)

R/R/CS: AF is not kicking my ass anymore so I'm just trying to stay positive about this cycle. So pretty much this:

and this:

GTKY: What actress would play you in the movie of your life? @Steelerfan78 good, tough question! I think someone like Emma Watson or Anna Kendrick. A smart, girl-next-door type that isn't too serious:

I went a little gif crazy this afternoon...

allysondunn2

Month/Cycle: 1/1

CD: 12

WAYDTGKU: PNV, OPK, CMN

R/R/CS: O day should be any day, but I got a negative OPK today so who knows what is going on. Also, I have not had sexual time in 3 days!

GTKY:  Megan Fox only because our features are similar.

LadyBrettAshley23

@JediAlly85 I'm so sorry you're having a couple of rough days. I definitely understand where you're coming from and share many of the same feelings. I'll be thinking about you!

AliciaGoose

@Steelerfan78 It's ok! It may have been we were in different threads one week, and even if not still not a big deal! I was actually glad I had done it already cause I had a hard time with that one last time!

@virginiaham HBDB is my favorite BMB thread! I don't know why but I stalk it every week. That and the announcements as well. So you're definitely not alone!

@PepperAT Ah, thank you!! I'm hoping to join you in TWW tomorrow!! 

@Aurora1973 Soery you're worried! FX everything comes back fine for OH.

@MommyForTheFirstTime Sorry your DH didn't perform his duties yesterday! Men really are frustrating sometimes. I hope he comes around and you can get back on track. 

@beary67 I've had the same problem since Monday! It stinks. Work really cuts into bump time. 

@JediAlly85 Sorry you're having rough TTC days!

Alright I have to run! It's date (slash cheat on my diet) night tonight with DH! I'm excited for some Cheesecake Factory and a trip to the mall! No healthy eating for me tonight. 

mrsdaddario

You guys!! Thank you all for the luck today!! I'm so lucky to have had your good vibes with me today! The appointment went really really well! AND DH rallied himself to the max and was pleasant all day. No jail for me! The doctor gave us four options ranging from starting on ovulation inducing meds + IUI, all the way to IVF. He thinks because our only issue is anovulation, that our chances of conceiving with just meds and IUI are high within 3-4 cycles. He mentioned Letrozole as his choice before Clomid. I got base line blood work, genetic testing too, and an ultrasound. The US verified that I have not ovulated. The doctor didn't seem to think I needed to start AF before starting Letrozole (Femara), but the nurse disagreed. So I'll wait to get my blood work results back tomorrow to see what my hormones are doing (to see if AF is gearing up on her own or not) and hopefully order the meds! Seriously, thank you again for the positive juju! Side note, I got to use a power washer for the first time tonight and it was amazingly fun. Thus the late post!!

Mlight28

Month/Cycle: 13

CD: 31...

WAYDTGKU: Clomid plus all the letters

R/R/CS: Oh, I don't even know anymore. Bumping from the airport and heading out on vacation. Doing lotssss of sightseeing in Europe for 12 days, and hopefully still having enough energy to BD EOD, because I refuse to give up on this cycle. I planned a full itenerary, so we will be tired. 
I also didn't bring my thermometer. I don't know how accurate it would have been with time changes, and at day 31, I don't even know if it will happen, but just maybe it will.  

GTKY:  Reese Witherspoon or Jennifer Aniston because those are my girl crushes. 

cabu14

Month/Cycle:  4/4CD:  2WAYDTGKU: Just hanging out with AF for a while.  Bought different PNVs today though.. didnt realize they cost $26 until I bought them.. ouch but totes worth it if i get KU. totes drinking right now.. R/R/CS:  Just want to say here that I kind of am sick of going to work everyday.. like I like what I do enough to get out of bed... but I really need a vacation day home without anyone.  Rave.. the hubs just got home so I'm gonna to go flirt with him.GTKY: What actress would play you in the movie of your life?  JA of course.. hottest woman duh. 

pretzel2plus1

@AliciaGoose I snickered about your DH needing a penis break! haha! FX for another high temp and cross hairs!

@JediAlly85 Sorry you're having a rough day and that you hit the 6-month mark. It's definitely not easy. Hang in there, and take care of yourself!

@LadyMillil Sorry about your sister. That's a really terrible thing for her to do. Hugs!

Sorry for CD 1, @leekat14!

@mrsdaddario I'm so happy to hear that your RE appt went well! (and that you're not going to jail!)  

Month/Cycle: 9/8

CD: 21

WAYDTGKU: all the usual, plus starting CBAD OPKs tomorrow or maybe over the weekend, I keep putting it off because I typically O so late, and I don't want to waste them because they're so expensive!

R/R/CS: My brain is so fried today. Work was completely mentally exhausting. H is at a meeting at work, so I think I'm just going to veg out in front of the TV for the rest of the evening.

GTKY: Lauren Graham or Zooey Deschanel
