Test Plans: I planned on waiting till Sunday (13 DPO), but on a whim I used a wondfo test at 9 DPO yesterday. I know I saw a line, the question was - was it an evap? Apparently so, since I did not get a + with a FRER with FMU today. I had never had an evap on wondfo before, and it looked like it was pink to me! Booooo.
GTKY: What is the strangest food you ever ate? I am the least adventurous person ever. The strangest food I ate was the brie on Tuesday that I posted about yesterday (if I could eat it while TTC).
DPO: I think either 4 or 5. Symptoms: Nothing, really. Although I will say that I have been extremely tired the past couple days. Don't think this is a symptom though. We've been very busy lately. Test Plans: Since I am unsure of my exact O date, I will try to wait until I believe I am about 12-13 DPO. We'll see though. I always test early. GTKY: What is the strangest food you ever ate? When I was a little girl, a boy dared me to eat a worm. I did. It was gross. lol I don't think I'd consider that a food though, so in second comes my experience at a chinese buffet where I ate some type of grilled snake. It was .... well, not for me.
Symptoms: Achey lower belly - different than cramps, because it's a constant ache. I was also a little naseaus last night and have had heartburn the past two evenings.
Test Plans: If my temp stays up tomorrow, maybe tomorrow. Otherwise, Saturday.
GTKY: What is the strangest food you ever ate? Gizzard....I am a picky eater and DH made me try a fried gizzard once.....it was gross!
Symptoms: None really although this morning I was super tired and couldn't get my behind out of bed to make it to the gym. Weird for me as I go 5 days a week.........So i guess tired
Test Plans: Way too early to test and AF is due when we are out of town so I will probably hold off
GTKY: What is the strangest food you ever ate? None...i don't do weird foods. I barely do regular foods. The list of foods i don't like is endless......... unfortunately chocolate does not fall into that category

Symptoms: All AF symptoms. Cramps, sore boobs, bloat... but I also have a cold so I've got aches, exhaustion, and a sore throat. Awesome.
Test Plans: FF told me to wait until tomorrow and I actually listened! I was gonna temp today but feel sooo AF-y that I didn't bother wasting the test. We'll see if I get to test day without her.
GTKY: What is the strangest food you ever ate? On our honeymoon, we had this crazy fruit that was spiney on the outside and had a jelly blob of sweet seeds on the inside. I have nooooo idea what it was, but it was delicious once you got past the ick-factor of the texture.

TTC #1 since October 2010 | Began Testing in January 2012
DH SA - low motility with 0% morph; varicocele (repaired); low T (on Clomid)
IVF w/ICSI (long Lupron w/ Repronex and Follistim) in September 2012
Test Plans: I held out pretty good last time, so probably 14 DPO hopefully.
GTKY: What is the strangest food you ever ate? Hmmm, I would say a steamed clam? Not really strange but it was definitely nasty, we were in VA Beach and it was huge and in its shell still!

Test Plans: I am so conflicted. My LP is usually 12 days. That would put 12 DPO on the 4th of July. My parents will be in town visiting, and I just think it would be amazing if I took a test that day and got a BFP. But at the same time, I've been promising myself not to POAS this cycle unless AF is late. My parents live 800 miles away, and it would just be amazing to be able to tell them in person that I'm pregnant.
GTKY: What is the strangest food you ever ate? Literally NOTHING is coming to mind as "the strangest." I eat a lot of stuff that most people think is strange, like lentils and quinoa and seitan, but it doesn't seem strange to me.
Symptoms: Sore boobs, a little nauseous here and there, cramps. Obviously most of them could mean AF is soon to be here and I'm really losing hope, my chart is the only thing giving me hope.
Test Plans: I should have AF by tomorrow, but if I don't start I'll hold out testing until Monday probably.
GTKY: What is the strangest food you ever ate? Alligator? I'm from Louisiana though, so that's not really strange here.

DD born Oct. 9, 2013 via c-section
Good morning all! On phone so please forgive formatting. I am 5 DPO. No symptoms yet, but I think it's probably too early for that. My doctor wants me to take prometrium as soon as I get a +HPT so I will start testing the earliest I dare - 14 DPO. I had a temp drop this morning though so I'm not feeling too positive right now. (open circle bc I woke up 1 hour before test time). Strangest food for me is a toss up b/t frog legs (yuck) and alligator sausage (not too bad).
Symptoms: Nothing today. I had stomach cramps and bloating the last few days though. One night I think it was 9DPO I had twinges on my left side that hurt!
Test Plans: I already tested twice at 9DPO and today 11DPO both BFN. My temps are still up so I am going to wait until Sunday and test again.
GTKY: What is the strangest food you ever ate? Ummm, one time at a BBQ I tried a small piece of deer meat...

Hi all! Checking in from vacation while DH does a little work before we go hiking!
DPO: 7
Symptoms: tender nips & creamy CM
Test Plans: *sigh* I've been really torn on this one. Since we're on vacation for the next week part of me thinks it would be super neat to get a BFP while we're out having fun, but the other part of me knows how a BFN would be a downer during vacation. This is only cycle 2 so I don't have a good feel for my LP yet, but the last one was 10 days. I'll hit that this weekend, and we'll be on vacation through Wednesday. Also, I'll be with my sister this weekend and, like Cho, would love to get a BFP around family since we live so far away, but that would be testing early.
Anyone want to weigh in on what you would do in this situation? (oh, and I'm taking time off temping while on vacation - felt so weird this morning!)
Weirdest food: Donkey. We went to a restaurant in Venice renowned for their gnocchi, and the night's special was donkey gnocchi. Hate to say this, but it was delicious!
Siggy Note: Drunk Ron Swanson is on a break while Amy Poehler takes over for a while, summing up my thoughts on all this birth control, prenatal testing, women's issues stuff in the news.
dx: LPD & low progesterone 11/2011
BFP #1 August 23
Thanks, trying not to get too optimistic here. I had a complete freak out this morning my DH is convinced I am. We have an RE appointment on Monday, I'd love to cancel it. LOL.

GTKY: What is the strangest food you ever ate? I have eaten a lot of weird food. My aunt was a chef ad she always made us eat it before she would tell us what it was. If we didn't like it, we didn't have to eat anymore. She just wanted us to try it. So ive learned to try anything once.
