bakes4u - who is the hottie in your siggy?! I've been meaning to ask you for the last few days.
Cycle/Month: 1/1
CD/DPO: 25/No Idea
Thoughts/Questions/Symptoms/Chart Stalks:Various phantom symptoms that are probably related to this being my first month off BCP.
Testing Plans:If I were still on BCP, AF would be due on Wednesday. I highly doubt that will happen, so I'm waiting it out until AF returns or I reach CD60. I'm not a very patient person, though.
What's your favorite Holiday Movie? Chevy Chase's Christmas Vacation!
Thoughts/Questions/Symptoms/Chart Stalks: Only symptoms so far is very very mild cramps, but it's way too early to know what it is from.
Testing Plans: Probably a week from tomorrow which will be 13DPO
What's your favorite Holiday Movie? I have too many, I can't just pick one....The Holiday, Christmas Vacation, A Christmas Story, Home Alone, and of course Garfield Christmas!
My Pregnancy/Parenting BLOG TTC since 5/2011, BFP #1 12/3/11, M/C 12/7/11 @ 4wks 2d. Began seeing RE Sep 2012.

Thoughts/Questions/Symptoms/Chart Stalks: Not going to temp until I have tried for 3 months. Then I will give in. As for symptoms, I'm sure the phantom symptoms are on their way.
Testing Plans: Nov. 21st right before I go on a big family vacation for Thanksgiving. If I get a BFP I will have to keep my mouth shut around my parents. If its negative, I at least can forget about it and enjoy the holiday. And have a drink, or two, or three...
What's your favorite Holiday Movie? All of them. Bust out the popcorn!
Thoughts/Questions/Symptoms/Chart Stalks: Timing was once again good, but we'll see. I'm battling feeling optimistic with trying to not get my hopes up at the same time. DH got his lab results back and his testosterone levels are now normal, so that's good. We'll hold off on him doing a SA for now.
Testing Plans: Waiting until CD30, which will be 14 DPO on Nov 19.
What's your favorite Holiday Movie? I'm a sucker for all of them. I love all the old school claymation movies, and National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation is a favorite too.

Thoughts/Questions/Symptoms/Chart Stalks: I've been really down as we approach the dreaded 12 month mark and I made an appointment for January at my OB for my annual and to discuss testing/referral to an RE. However, I really tried to pump myself up for this cycle, so I'm feeling pretty good. I'd love to be one of those girls that gets to cancel the appointment because I got pregnant. I've been charting on and off for all 12 months and I always get solid cross-hairs, but this is the most stable my temps have been!
Timing: We hit -3, -1, and O. I keep getting upset that we didn't get -2, but I know that's stupid. This is pretty good timing right?
Testing Plans: I'm telling myself to wait for 10DPO but I always cave at 8DPO. I might need everyone's help to hold off. So I'll try to check in the 2ww thread everyday. Don't let me do it!

Me (28) DH (28)
Dec 2012 Testing Complete: Me: Blood tests look great HSG "beautiful" DH: SA = normal Unexplained?
Thoughts/Questions/Symptoms/Chart Stalks: We had bad timing this month bc of Hurricane Sandy and the snow storm. DH has been working 18 hour shifts every day since 10/29. We hit O-4, O-3 & O-1. This month I was supposed to have 2 tests done and DH was supposed to have repeat SA so we could start IVF at the end of November. Unfortunately due to the hurricane all of our tests were cancelled until next month because my RE's office was affected as was the hospital where I was having my tests. This month is us trying on our own with no meds. AF is due in 11 days and then I can finally have my tests done and by Christmas we will begin our IVF journey.
Testing Plans: Im not testing this month. Im just going to wait for AF to show.
What's your favorite Holiday Movie? Home alone and National Lampoons Christmas Vacation

Thoughts - stupidly I'm not charting again this month. I really need to next month! My cycles have been regular since having DS (they were not before) but for this one, EWCM and a positive opk came later than usual. For the last one, AF came earlier than expected considering when I saw EWCM (wasn't using opks yet). I think I ought to chart so that I can make sure my luteal phase is long enough, for example. I know it's not supposed to be variable, but when we were TTC DS and I was charting, I had one luteal that was 10 and another that was 15. The temps were pretty clear...so I don't know what to think. With DS I had implantation bleeding at 8-9 DPO as well as the triphasic chart at that time so I'm hoping even if my luteal is on the shorter side it would be enough to support a pregnancy again. Really...I just need to temp next time.
Testing Plans - I am going out of town Thursday through Sunday. Originally, before I O'd, I thought this would be during the testing time/AF expected. Now I think I will get back right before the end of the 2ww, so I don't have to be tempted to test while I'm gone. I think I might test right when I get back, though, rather than waiting for AF at that point. And I also expect AF could come while I'm gone.
Timing: o-3, o-2, o. Technically we had sex on o-1, but dh didn't ejaculate so I am not counting that. We would have had sex on o+1, but I was so sure that I had o'd on day 19 and that would have been o+2
Thoughts/Questions/Symptoms/Chart Stalks: I still think I may have o'd on day 19, based on a reaaally dark opk on day 18, and day 19 was one that could have gone either way. But I'll go by ff's interpretation.
I'm starting a progesterone through a vaginal suppository tonight now that I have confirmed O. It was $60 for 30 pills (which will last 2 cycles) so I kind of felt it's a waste since I probably won't get pregnant this cycle. Not trying to be debbie downer, but the last 2 cycles I have gotten pregnant and who get's pregnant 3 in a row? But I'll take it just in case.
Testing Plans: Probably 10dpo. I don't know if I'm going to keep temping since I hear progesterone can mess with temps.

Thoughts/Questions/Symptoms/Chart Stalks: I have the faintest line on my wondfo this morning (at 5 minutes) at 10DPO. DH saw it, but he was definitely not impressed enough by it to get excited. I know a 'line is a line', but with wondfos I think caution is in order.
Would you get a FRER and test this afternoon or use another wondfo which I have? Or be patient and wait 'til tomorrow with FMU since it's so light?

Cycle/Month: 1/1
CD/DPO: 25/No Idea
Thoughts/Questions/Symptoms/Chart Stalks:Various phantom symptoms that are probably related to this being my first month off BCP.
Testing Plans:If I were still on BCP, AF would be due on Wednesday. I highly doubt that will happen, so I'm waiting it out until AF returns or I reach CD60. I'm not a very patient person, though.

My Pregnancy/Parenting BLOG TTC since 5/2011, BFP #1 12/3/11, M/C 12/7/11 @ 4wks 2d. Began seeing RE Sep 2012. October 2012 Metformin 1500 mg= ovulation on CD34 BFP#2 11/14/12 9DPO, EDD 7/26/13, DX Gestational Diabetes @14 wks, our angel born sleeping 3/24/13 @ 22wks 2d.

Cycle/Month: 2
Thoughts/Questions/Symptoms/Chart Stalks: Not going to temp until I have tried for 3 months. Then I will give in. As for symptoms, I'm sure the phantom symptoms are on their way.
Testing Plans: Nov. 21st right before I go on a big family vacation for Thanksgiving. If I get a BFP I will have to keep my mouth shut around my parents. If its negative, I at least can forget about it and enjoy the holiday. And have a drink, or two, or three...
What's your favorite Holiday Movie? All of them. Bust out the popcorn!
Cycle/Month: 6/6
CD/DPO: 21/5
Timing: O-3, -1, O
Thoughts/Questions/Symptoms/Chart Stalks: Timing was once again good, but we'll see. I'm battling feeling optimistic with trying to not get my hopes up at the same time. DH got his lab results back and his testosterone levels are now normal, so that's good. We'll hold off on him doing a SA for now.
Testing Plans: Waiting until CD30, which will be 14 DPO on Nov 19.
What's your favorite Holiday Movie? I'm a sucker for all of them. I love all the old school claymation movies, and National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation is a favorite too.

CD/DPO: 20/6
Thoughts/Questions/Symptoms/Chart Stalks: I've been really down as we approach the dreaded 12 month mark and I made an appointment for January at my OB for my annual and to discuss testing/referral to an RE. However, I really tried to pump myself up for this cycle, so I'm feeling pretty good. I'd love to be one of those girls that gets to cancel the appointment because I got pregnant. I've been charting on and off for all 12 months and I always get solid cross-hairs, but this is the most stable my temps have been!
Timing: We hit -3, -1, and O. I keep getting upset that we didn't get -2, but I know that's stupid. This is pretty good timing right?
Testing Plans: I'm telling myself to wait for 10DPO but I always cave at 8DPO. I might need everyone's help to hold off. So I'll try to check in the 2ww thread everyday. Don't let me do it!

Cycle/Month: 22/22
CD/DPO: CD19/3dpo
Thoughts/Questions/Symptoms/Chart Stalks: We had bad timing this month bc of Hurricane Sandy and the snow storm. DH has been working 18 hour shifts every day since 10/29. We hit O-4, O-3 & O-1. This month I was supposed to have 2 tests done and DH was supposed to have repeat SA so we could start IVF at the end of November. Unfortunately due to the hurricane all of our tests were cancelled until next month because my RE's office was affected as was the hospital where I was having my tests. This month is us trying on our own with no meds. AF is due in 11 days and then I can finally have my tests done and by Christmas we will begin our IVF journey.
Testing Plans: Im not testing this month. Im just going to wait for AF to show.
What's your favorite Holiday Movie? Home alone and National Lampoons Christmas Vacation
cycle & month - 2
CD - 21, DPO - 5ish
Thoughts - stupidly I'm not charting again this month. I really need to next month! My cycles have been regular since having DS (they were not before) but for this one, EWCM and a positive opk came later than usual. For the last one, AF came earlier than expected considering when I saw EWCM (wasn't using opks yet). I think I ought to chart so that I can make sure my luteal phase is long enough, for example. I know it's not supposed to be variable, but when we were TTC DS and I was charting, I had one luteal that was 10 and another that was 15. The temps were pretty clear...so I don't know what to think. With DS I had implantation bleeding at 8-9 DPO as well as the triphasic chart at that time so I'm hoping even if my luteal is on the shorter side it would be enough to support a pregnancy again. Really...I just need to temp next time.
Testing Plans - I am going out of town Thursday through Sunday. Originally, before I O'd, I thought this would be during the testing time/AF expected. Now I think I will get back right before the end of the 2ww, so I don't have to be tempted to test while I'm gone. I think I might test right when I get back, though, rather than waiting for AF at that point. And I also expect AF could come while I'm gone.
Holiday movie -- A Christmas Story, probably
Cycle/Month: 3/3
CD/DPO: 30/ 16 or 11
Thoughts/Questions/Symptoms/Chart Stalks: Nothing really, just anxiously playing the waiting game. AF was due yesterday and no sign of her yet.
Testing Plans: 3 more days
What's your favorite Holiday Movie? It's a Wonderful Life.
Cycle/Month:
CD/DPO: 23/3
Timing: o-3, o-2, o. Technically we had sex on o-1, but dh didn't ejaculate so I am not counting that. We would have had sex on o+1, but I was so sure that I had o'd on day 19 and that would have been o+2
Thoughts/Questions/Symptoms/Chart Stalks: I still think I may have o'd on day 19, based on a reaaally dark opk on day 18, and day 19 was one that could have gone either way. But I'll go by ff's interpretation.
I'm starting a progesterone through a vaginal suppository tonight now that I have confirmed O. It was $60 for 30 pills (which will last 2 cycles) so I kind of felt it's a waste since I probably won't get pregnant this cycle. Not trying to be debbie downer, but the last 2 cycles I have gotten pregnant and who get's pregnant 3 in a row? But I'll take it just in case.
Testing Plans: Probably 10dpo. I don't know if I'm going to keep temping since I hear progesterone can mess with temps.
What's your favorite Holiday Movie? Love actually, Miracle on 34th street.

Cycle/Month: 10/18
CD/DPO: 56/10
Thoughts/Questions/Symptoms/Chart Stalks: I have the faintest line on my wondfo this morning (at 5 minutes) at 10DPO. DH saw it, but he was definitely not impressed enough by it to get excited. I know a 'line is a line', but with wondfos I think caution is in order.
Would you get a FRER and test this afternoon or use another wondfo which I have? Or be patient and wait 'til tomorrow with FMU since it's so light?
Testing Plans: Started today.
What's your favorite Holiday Movie? The Santa Clause, It's a Wonderful Life, Love Actually, Elf, The Grinch Who Stole Christmas
DD2: Lucia (Lucy) 07/13
I would get a two pack FRER and use one test today. If it's a light line I'd feel pretty good. Then use the 2nd one tomorrow for more piece of mind.

Cycle/Month: 3/3
CD/DPO: 21/7
Thoughts/Questions/Symptoms/Chart Stalks: Had a pretty big temp spike this AM so I am not sure what that all means. I feel very bloated and am an emotional mess, but I also have some other things going on so it could be that too.
Testing Plans: Not until at least 10 DPO
What's your favorite Holiday Movie? I LOVE Christmas movies, so its tough to pick just one, but I would have to say The Family Stone.
CONGRATS!!

Thoughts/Questions/Symptoms/Chart Stalks: My boobs have been really sore since yesterday, but I wasn't thinking about it much until my husband came home he told me they looked bigger than normal.... thanks, now I'm freaking out about it.
Testing Plans: hopefully I won't test at all (unless late)
Holiday Movie? Home Alone or Love Actually. I also have a total guilty pleasure for "I'll be Home For Christmas" - that movie is hysterical!

Congrats!
Cycle/Month: 7/7
CD/DPO: 28/10
Thoughts/Questions/Symptoms/Chart Stalks: No symptoms really. I know I shouldn't be but I am a discouraged about it. We had great timing this month and I know I'm not out yet. Maybe I'm more just anxious for the 2WW to be over.
Testing Plans: Tested yesterday - BFN. I know, it was early.
What's your favorite Holiday Movie?I like so many of them. Elf is pretty funny. It's A Wonderful Life reminds me of my childhood. Chevy Chase Christmas Vacation is good.
Thanks! That's what I think I'll do. Are FRERs more sensitive or just more reliable?
