    Cycle/Month: 2/2

    CD/DPO: 32/11

    Timing: good

    Testing: Did not POAS this morning. Will probably do it tomorrow morning if AF doesn't show today. 

    R/R/CS: Temp drop this morning. Not by a lot (still above cover line) but feeling discouraged. But my body did such bizarre things this month with my late O that who knows what this means. 

    Question: Has anyone looked at the HPT gallery in FF? I swear I don't see second lines on half the pics that claim they're positive. Maybe it's the photos but maybe people just can't read them right?


    GTKY: What's the #1 thing on your bucket list? To see a live giant squid.

    R/R/CS:  cheezburger  animals fail running mouse <-- me right now.  "Is this my period?  crap this is my period.  Oh wait, it stopped.  Must not be...just some break through bleeding... okay this could be it again... NO wait... AHHHHHHHH" *this is where I fall off.*  And I can't get in to see my MW to discuss my crazy LP crap until next month so, yay.  I feel for you ladies that have spotting and such.  These symptoms only started after my D&E and, of course, now I'm thinking I did something wrong....

    GTKY: What's the #1 thing on your bucket list? Not sure what #1 is.  I guess I should think on it but the the few things coming to mind are - flying a helicopter, living frontier style for a month or more, staying on one of those huts in the water in Bora Bora, see the Northern Lights, and regain my fluency in Spainsh.  Maybe also learn Chinese.

    Cycle/Month: 6/8

    Timing: excellent

    Testing: tomorrow? maybe?

    R/R/CS: i feel pretty normal, except for odd cramping here and there, but that's not unusual for me, really. it's happened every other cycle, anyway. i'm a little scared to test because i know if it's a BFN i'll be so so so disappointed - this was H's and i last cycle trying the "natural"  way (well, if you can call shooting yourself up with hormones to force your body into cooperating natural). we move onto IUI next, which, as a treatment plan i feel good about, but obviously hope that we don't have to go there. siiiiigh.

    GTKY: What's the #1 thing on your bucket list? i don't really have a bucket list, but i'd love to get over to europe  again - explore more of france and italy and britan.

    Testing: We will be on vacation in the testing time and coming home on projected CD1, so I haven't decided yet.

    @Schumerator It actually made me feel better to look at the HPT gallery and realize it was not accurate because FF tells me annoying things like "34% of positive HPTs are reported before 10DPO" but now I know it's BS.

    Cycle/Month: 8 (7TTC)

    Testing: July 7th at 12DPO if no AF, I have my yearly OB exam that morning so I guess I should test beforehand, if it's still necessary at that point.

    R/R/CS: Someone please tell me to take my BSC and go away. I'm 5DPO...FIVE. CALM DOWN SELF. I'm all cuckoo over the fact that my post-O temps are higher than they've been since getting my first PP cycle back in Nov 2015. I know it means nothing, it's 5DPO so please, gtfo BSC self. 
    Somehow I went from not wanting to get my hopes up yesterday to convincing myself this is it. Ugh, the roller coaster never stops. At least, if I'm not pregnant, my temps are higher and hopefully my LP is a bit longer this time around.

    GTKY: What's the #1 thing on your bucket list? To travel Europe with a mix of backpacking and taking the tram through multiple countries. I'd like to do this once DH and I are done having kids and are old enough to walk with their own backpacks and enjoy the scenery.

    Ummm ok so that place just got added to my list @Sugargirl1019

    I'm sure it's photoshopped/has a filter, but it looks beautiful!!

    Sorry for the temp drop @Squiddly!
    Ughh @bornmommy I'm so sorry for the roller coaster :(
    @sammajane19 Fx hard for you!!
    @Schumerator I know, I hate when I miss days temping in the 2WW when I'm fully charting!
    @linzrunz How long is your LP usually?
    Sorry for your BFN @LadyMillil

  • Options

    @TravelingCouple Normally it's 12.  Last month was weird at 14.  I can tell AF is coming, she's just taking her sweet time.  :-\  Plus two BFNs at 12 and 14 dpo doesn't give me much hope.

    Also, I just now realized that I put that I got my BFNs on CD12 and CD14 in my original post...which I totally meant dpo.  That was definitely before coffee.

    Testing: Just got a negative yesterday :(

    R/R/CS: So happy that it's the day before the long weekend!

    GTKY: What's the #1 thing on your bucket list? The #1 thing on my bucket list was to be on the Price is Right, which I did in 2007!  Then #2 was to visit Santorini, Greece, which I did on my anniversary last month!  I need to add more to my bucket list, lol.


    So I got a negative test result yesterday, BOO!  I've been pretty good with logging symptoms and CM.  My FF app said yesterday that AF is due on July 11.  Today, it says AF is due tomorrow?  I guess maybe logging all my stuff made the app change my dates?  UGH SO CONFUSING.  I guess maybe my body/cycle is still not recovered from my Europe trip.  I was so sure it would be positive because I have been feeling different (cramping, but not the usual AF cramps, heartburn, missed period, tired, emotional, different CM than I was used to)....SO I guess I continue to try.

    Cycle/Month: 1/1

    CD/DPO: CD30/11DPO or 13DPO...I had one questionable temp...right around O...seriously inconvenient.

    Timing: Either O, O+1 or O-1, O Again, crazy temp...who knows.

    Testing: Maybe tomorrow. I may wait until Sunday...I don't know. I may just wait for AF..

    R/R/CS: I'm one month in and frustrated with this temping thing. Today, I woke up needed to pee and temped. Come to find out it was a couple hours earlier than I usually temp. I don't have a regular sleep schedule, and so far things have been pretty clear if I just temp after the same amount of sleep. So, I went back to bed, slept for a almost three hours and the temp is more along what the rest of my chart is doing. I just wish I new what temp was right...The first means a significant (.3 degrees) drop in temp, but still above cover line, the second means still solidly above cover line. IDK. And since it's month one, I don't really have any other information to work with. Needless to say, I have a couple of apps with different things going on. One with my first temps, no matter how questionable, and another with the questionable temps replaced with the temps that make more sense. Either way, I want to know what this month holds because if this month happened to be the month, my due date would be right around my birthday next year and that would be kind of exciting. Plus it would be close to my mom's birthday and her great-grandmother's birthday. So, it would just be a kind of fun time. Sorry this is so long...you fine folks are the only people I have to share this stuff with...thanks for reading the ramblings of a crazy girl.

    GTKY: What's the #1 thing on your bucket list? I don't know if one thing in particular is the top, but it includes: See the Northern Lights, Cruise the Panama Canal, Visit all 50 States (I've seen 35), Travel Europe, Reach Mount Everest Base Camp (not crazy enough or fit enough to climb the thing, but to say I've been on Mount Everest would be pretty damn cool) And other cool travel related stuff. Also, live in NYC.

    @Bettyb1114 I feel you on the questionable temps things. I'm either 3DPO or 5DPO. I'm going with 5 just because it makes me feel better. But it's throwing off my testing times, so I'm sure I'll really be hating it in a week.

    @AngelaPlus3 I'm using being 11DPO instead of 13DPO, so at least when I test, I know both times are covered. It stinks because I have to wait longer, but it at least I'll have a lower chance of a false negative.

    @Bettyb1114 That thinking is so much more practical. I'm sure I'll base timing off of later ovulation too. It's a bummer to wait the extra days, but probably worth it emotionally. Lots of fx for you since you'll be testing much sooner than me!

    @Bettyb1114 FWIW, no matter where I am in my cycle, my temp is definitely lower if I wake up significantly early. If I were to have woken up three hours before my normal time, I can see it being a lot lower. If it were me, I'd probably put the second temp in (maybe shave just a little off?) and then put a note in there.

    @Squiddly I know what you mean. I've looked at a lot of those galleries and I also don't see a lot of the second lines. 
    @Schumerator I've been there. I lost my thermometer for my tww back in December and it was stressful at first but then once I accepted that I would be pregnant or not either way it was quite relaxing not temping! 
    @swimsister Oh scuba! That's a great one! I love snorkeling and would also love to do scuba some day.

    @MrsJennaSheppard03 Oh my god I love Price is Right! I watch it every day if I'm ever home at 11 AM. My husband calls me grandma because of it. Did you get to compete?!?!?
    @BettyB114 Temping can be suuuuper frustrating in that sense but I like this cliche saying from TCOYF: it's about seeing the forest through the trees. Every day is such a roller coaster with ttc but you have great timing either way so now you just have to wait and see!! I'm impressed you haven't tested yet! My first month I was all over POAS on like 7 dpo.

    Cycle/Month: 8/7

    CD/DPO: 26/8 dpo

    @PennStateCait Thank you! I have already been all over Google today looking up "sensitivity of Wondfos", "possibility of BFP after BFN at 14 dpo", and pretty much any other combination you can think of.  When I got to the point of looking at other people's pee sticks, I decided I have officially crossed over to BSC.

    By the way, there are a LOT of pee sticks out there that totally look negative to me but others were saying positive.  So that helped... :|

    @Schumerator - Thanks. I think I got my answer today... but who knows.  Really jealous of you for getting to see them!  I'm pretty sure thats my only bucket list item I might actually get. 

    @TheJerilu - I hate a serious love/hate relationship with that gif. Its like a car wreck.  I hate it and its ugly and someone was probably injured but I can't look away...  and I don't like that!  HA!

    @Kiki75 - Thanks.  I have supreme guilt for not listening to my gut.  I might get over it someday. 

    @swanbrooner - I thought it was something ridiculous like Ninja Warrior LOL Have fun!  I know those things are like information overload.

    @Bettyb1114 - I have.  I have country on all the time. :)  I HATE the "new country" though. I'm an outlaw country gal.

    Question: Has anyone looked at the HPT gallery in FF? I swear I don't see second lines on half the pics that claim they're positive. Maybe it's the photos but maybe people just can't read them right?
    I'm glad it wasn't just me who noticed that! (...or rather didn't notice that) I thought something was wrong with me that I couldn't see two lines on a lot of them, but I'm glad I'm not alone!

    @AngelaPlus3 If we would have tried a year or two ago I would not have been as practical...but I've been doing counseling after being diagnosed with depression and it's really changed my outlook on things like this. It's definitely good in times like this! FX for you too! GL making it through the TWW!!

    @Kiki75 That's very reassuring! I hadn't thought about it, but if I added the suggested .2 for every hour early, that would put my temp right where it makes sense for the big picture. I think I'll follow that. It pretty much places the number smack dab in the middle of the two temps for the day! So many thanks to you!!! 

    @PennStateCait I've never been a forest girl...I can pick out a single tree like no ones business! As for avoiding POAS, I just have one in the house...and it's an expensive one...and the hubs would die if I went out buying more when I have one...so it does help keep me away from it.

    @bornmommy What do you think of the song? It's one of my favorites! I'll admit, I don't hate on any of the country. Even if it's the more pop country. But, I grew up in Texas so I also enjoy some good Texas Country. I'm not too picky.
