DPO: 4 (though I haven't started charting yet, so it may not be all that accurate)
Testing Plans: I am going to try and hold off until AF (the 8th) but I will be out of town for work that week and I may try earlier and hope for an early result so I can share with my hubby!!
Phantom Symptoms: Driving myself crazy with these since its our first cycle trying, mild cramping, major loss of appetite, tired
Feelings about this cycle: this is only Cycle #1, so trying not to get my hopes up (though these phantom symptoms are killing me!), I know its extremely rare to get pregnant on the first try.
Guilty Pleasure: Last night I spent two hours and youtube looking for how people told their families they were pregnant, very heart warming stories though!
Happy Sunday all! Cycle #: 10 DPO: FF says 3, I think 1 or 2 though. Testing Plans: Oh geez, not for at least a week! Phantom Symptoms: None, definitely too soon. Feelings about this cycle: I can't help but be hopeful...fingers crossed! GTKY: What's your "guilty pleasure"? Definitely a glass of wine and trashy reality tv!
Cycle #: 3, but I think this might be the first one that I ovulated. Started Metformin this month and I am guessing from my chart that I ovulated. My Ovulation Chart
DPO: 10
Testing Plans: Tested 4 times already (not a good idea) on DPO 7, 8, 9, 10. Now I am waiting until at least 12 or 13.
Phantom Symptoms: Getting up 3-4 times at night to pee. Boobs have been killing everyday since O. But I don't know what a real cycle feels like for me, so it could just be my first experience with normal cycle symptoms.
Feelings about this cycle: Was really good at first - really timed things well. But starting to go downhill with the negative tests, plus no increase in temp or implantation dip since O.
What's your "guilty pleasure"? FF - I am constantly doing chart comparisons to find some way of clinging to hope that my flat-lined chart could still lead to BFP.

DPO: 5. I'm bummed I didn't temp today. My SIL got married last night and I went a little overboard with the champagne.
Testing Plans: trying to hold out until Saturday which would be 11 dpo
Phantom Symptoms: nothing really, a few cramps here and there, sore bbs, creamy CM
Feelings about this cycle: this is my first month where I know I O'd ( had some wonky cycles when we first started trying) and we had good timing. I'd love an October baby, but not getting my hopes up.
GTKY: What's your "guilty pleasure"? All desserts (sugar lover) and too many trashy reality tv shows to list

I hope everyone is enjoying a lazy Sunday! Yep, been in my PJs all day & don't event feel bad about it
Cycle #: 5th charting/1 actively TTC
DPO: 6
Testing Plans: If I have to make DH lock the tests up, I'm not testing until FF says so! (Okay I'm saying that now but we'll see how it goes). By Feb 9th.
Phantom Symptoms: Super super tired, little appetite, cramps, headache & cranky.
Feelings about this cycle: Eh, 50/50. Timing was good but I'm not even sure I O'd (FF was being a little stingy with my crosshairs).
GTKY: What's your "guilty pleasure"? Snacks (sweet, salty, doesn't matter) & a few shows I like: RHONJ, Private Practice, Grey's Anatomy, Dog the Bounty Hunter & House Hunters.
Testing Plans: Either Tueday, before I go OOT or Saturday, when I come home from OOT.
Phantom Symptoms: A little crampy today and my usual heartburn. Still not sore boobs.... (I always have sore boobs, so this is the symptom I am focused the most on!)
Feelings about this cycle: A little too good after my temp rise this morning. I hope this cycle doesn't smack me in the face in a few days!
GTKY: What's your "guilty pleasure"? Toddlers and Tiaras, Dog the Bounty Hunter, and Britney Spears.
I feel so trashy every time I watch Dog but I just can't get enough!
DPO: 12 if you go by FF. But I wouldn't doubt that it's actually 11
Testing Plans: tested yesterday. bfn. :-( Now, I guess I'll just see how I feel daily.
Phantom Symptoms: none that I can't blame on my period I guess.
Feelings about this cycle: My chart just looks so nice, I want to feel positive about this cycle. But the bfn ruined that. I know my temp is going to drop tomorrow. I'm dreading that feeling.
GTKY: What's your "guilty pleasure"? reality tv. I can get sucked into any show.
