Re: ~*~*Waiting to o~*~*~
Happy Hump Day!
Cycle/Month: 3/3
CD: 11
What are you doing this month: Temping, charting, CBFM, and HIO
Chart stalks/thought/rants/raves: So far my monitor is still saying low fertility, even though my CM is changing and I'm experiencing O pain. Or so I hope. The pain came with a vengeance yesterday afternoon and it's still here. It goes from throbbing to sharp pains on my right side and if I sit long enough, I initially have trouble getting up to walk. DH and I tried to BD this morning, but the pain was unbearable. I'm worried that my Endo might be back so I'm going to call my Dr. this afternoon if the pain doesn't subside. So not happy right now.
GTKY: Biggest pet peeve: Improper grammar. And not necessarily when writing, but more so when speaking. Bugs the crap out of me.
cycle/month: 16/18
cd: 1
What are you doing this month: Pom, green tea, opks, cm, temping to confirm o, sex
chart stalks/thoughts/rants/raves: just moving on to another cycle
gtky: piggest pet peeve: Butting into people's conversations, chewing and talking at the same time...I could go on and on
cycle/month: 13/11
cd: 4
What are you doing this month: Temping, OPKs, preseed, sex
chart stalks/thoughts/rants/raves: Nope. Still on break until AF is gone.
gtky: piggest pet peeve: Umm...I hate the phrase "pet peeve" so maybe that. I also get really annoyed when people turn on red when it's not clear. I don't know if that counts as a pet peeve or not.
cd: 15
What are you doing this month: OPKs, PNVs, vaginal temping, charting CM
chart stalks/thoughts/rants/raves: I think I o'd on CD 12, but due to a wonky temp yesterday I have a couple more days before I get cross hairs
gtky: piggest pet peeve: When people try to argue about something they aren't educated on.
Big thumbs down for CD 1!
cycle/month: 5/6 since coming off BCP
cd: 17
What are you doing this month: Still TTA so its a good thing i resisted the urge to HIO on monday otherwise based on my predicted O date we would have risked a surprise BFP this month.
chart stalks/thoughts/rants/raves: one more elevated temp and I will get CHs!!!! Squeeeee!! Hoping this means I'm back on track after two long assss wonky cycles!
gtky: piggest pet peeve: Ok so this may not be the biggest, but its fresh on my mind. When a patient has been sitting in the waiting room and as soon as you call them back asks to use the bathroom first. Seriously?? You've been out there for 10 minutes. Now you have to go???
BFP #1 11/28/09 ~ EDD 8/6/10 ~ DS Born 8/9/10
BFP #2 8/27/13 ~ EDD 5/8/14 ~ Natural MC 9/18/13 at 6 weeks, 6 days
BFP#3 3/28/14 ~ EDD 12/7/14 ~ DD Born 11/21/14
BFP#4 6/15/17 ~ EDD 2/20/18
cd: 15
What are you doing this month: the usual
chart stalks/thoughts/rants/raves: Of course the cycle I just want to get over with is the cycle my body is going to take its time Oing. Just perfect. I'm going to Blogher at the end of July and really want to squeeze in another cycle before that, but if I dont O soon, that's not going to be able to happen and I'm going to have to skip another month of meds.
gtky: piggest pet peeve: This doesnt really effect me, but it totally grosses me out when people brush their teeth with warm water. Like I find it offensive.
Joining you on CD 1, Lauren. Ugh.
cycle/month: 10/11
cd: 1
What are you doing this month: I'll be traveling all month, so we'll see how that affects things. I *think* I've packed all my "equipment" so FX I didn't forget anything. Going to be better about green tea this month. Also going to call an RE for an appointment when we get back (as we'll have hit 1 year by that point). Time really flew.
chart stalks/thoughts/rants/raves: Feeling bummed about above. AF also showed up 2 days early, which kept me from taking any tests, but once again puts me at having gotten AF right before arriving at my parents (just like last month). Technically it's good I can't throw my little pity party, but gosh darn it, I just want a night to be sad and indulge.
gtky: piggest pet peeve: People who don't follow rules, or who try to keep me from following them. I'm very, very big with rules, so anyone who breaks them (either set ones or social ones, like driving rules) drive me crazy. I have a highly developed sense of fairness, to the point that I get very frustrated with people for things others don't at all care about. It's especially tricky since a lot of my "rules" don't seem to be rules in anyone else's mind
.
cycle/month: 4/4
cd: 6
What are you doing this month: temping, checking cm, opks (and losing weight/attempting to drink more water)
chart stalks/thoughts/rants/raves: AW: I've lost 7 pounds since tracking with MyFitnessPal in the past month. Still kicking myself for not doing this like a year+ ago.
gtky: piggest pet peeve: The one that comes to mind right now is people cutting their nails at work, which my cube neighbor likes to do. Why do people think this is ok? It's disgusting!
Logan 10/20/2010 ~ Addison 8/26/2014
Team Purple!!!!
cycle/month: 1/1
cd: 6
What are you doing this month: temping, charting, opks, BD
chart stalks/thoughts/rants/raves: My FW started today, O is suppose to be here Saturday and AF won't leave! UGH!
gtky: piggest pet peeve: People who continue talking even when they have food in their mouth. Or people who chew with their mouth open lol just sounds so disgusting.
cycle/month: 6/10 (was bfing)
cd: 11
What are you doing this month: temping, opks, EOD sex, praying
chart stalks/thoughts/rants/raves: none yet just waiting
gtky: piggest pet peeve: sigh I have alot. Um... I guess it really bothers me when people say they are going to do something and then don't (ie pay you back, call etc)
cycle/month: 8/11
cd:8
What are you doing this month: OPKs, temping, PNVs
chart stalks/thoughts/rants/raves: I feel like this week is going by so slow right now and just looking forward to the weekend.
gtky: piggest pet peeve: As a professor I hate getting e-mails from students that sounds more like a text as well as when they don't include their name in the e-mail.
cd: 13
What are you doing this month: Temping and OPKs
chart stalks/thoughts/rants/raves: Had a huge temp drop on CD12. I'm betting that was the O, but OPKs were negative. Temp is on the way back up today, but hubby and I woke up too tired to get it on this morning before work. He's on a 24 hour shift, so no chance for anything until I get home from work on CD14. We've had some pretty lousy timing the last few months and I'm getting annoyed.
gtky: piggest pet peeve: I have too many to count; everything irritates me!
Baby GIRL born 9/16/201
BFP! EDD 8/1/2019 CP 4w2d
cycle/month: 4/4
cd: 15
What are you doing this month: temping, OPKs, EPO
chart stalks/thoughts/rants/raves: I had a positive OPK yesterday and today it was negative. I'm thinking yesterday was O day, but my temp was up less than .3 degrees. Any thoughts? I think I'm just going to have to wait it out...I've had a couple cycles where I've had a slow rise.
gtky: biggest pet peeve: Hmmm, I usually can think of a lot, but not too much is bothering me this morning! I would say I hate DH's beard clippings in the sink though.
Congrats! 7 lbs in a months is awesome!
cycle/month: 1/1
cd: 13
What are you doing this month: temping, CM, OPKs, dietary changes
chart stalks/thoughts/rants/raves: I know I'm only in the first month and wouldn't normally post here, but I have an odd situation. My H is starting a clinical trial at the end of the month, and we aren't allowed to conceive after that. I only have this month to get pregnant, or we have to move to iui w/ frozen sperm. So I'm trying to do everything right. I'm stressing myself out so much, I'm afraid I have thrown off my cycle. I've been stalking you ladies for advice.
gtky: piggest pet peeve:
cycle/month: month 7
cd: 2
What are you doing this month: Confrimed from RE that I will be on 150mg of clomid cd3-cd7. Ultrasound cd10, and daily blood work to look for surge. Doctor is happy that we have found the dosage that is working from me and we are starting off on a good foot accoring to RE.
chart stalks/thoughts/rants/raves: Sometimes I wish I could just trigger instead of daily blood work just out of my own convience.
gtky: piggest pet peeve: white lies
Married in September 2010, started TTC journey November 2012
Me-
7 IUI- 2 CP- 2 BFN
RPL blood work 12/27, showed a balance translocation in chromosome 11;22
Spouse-
PCOS 4 IUI-4 BFN
New Plan: Reciprocal IVF, me as carrier wife's eggs. Just went through insurance and received partial approval, so my part will go through my IVF benefits and wife's part will be out of pocket. Now just finalizing finance plans to cover the oop costs. Doctors office is in process of moving to a new building so there are no IVF start ups until March/April 2015.
Cycle/Month: 1/1
CD: 26
What are you doing this month: Charting temps CM, PNVs, sex
Chart stalks/thoughts/rants/raves: I'm starting to wonder if this is just going to be an anovulatory cycle for me. I'm holding on to the glimmer of hope that I did get a .3 increase today with no other outside reason it should happen. If I did happen to O yesterday, could BD O plus 1 help?
GTKY: Biggest pet peeve: Leaving the toilet seat up...which happens ALL the time with MH.
ETA: Stupid mobile eating punctuation.
Boo for CD1.
cycle/month: 2/2 charting
cd: 2
What are you doing this month: Practicing the usuals, temping, OPKs, timing
chart stalks/thoughts/rants/raves: Glad to know i have a chart pattern to compare to from my last cycle
gtky: piggest pet peeve: Unorganization. This makes me what to just start cleaning. I've been comparted to Monica from Friends on more than one occasion.
MH has done this the entire time I've known him and it drives me crazy too! Unfortunately, now I find myself doing it too because that's where the faucet handle is and I just flip it up.
Joining you on CD1 - boo.
cycle/month: 8/8
cd: 1
What are you doing this month: the usual (temp, opks, charting) plus testing for me since last month we discovered that DH has very poor morphology in his SA. FSH bloodwork on Friday and HSG on Monday. Fun times.
chart stalks/thoughts/rants/raves: bleh - nothing today.
gtky: piggest pet peeve: hmm this is a tough one. I'm going to say today my biggest pet peeve are rude commuters. We live in the city where we rely on public transportation and the subway antics that people do can get out of control.
Thanks! Only 4-6 more lbs and I'm back to pre-baby weight!
Logan 10/20/2010 ~ Addison 8/26/2014
Cycle/month: 6/8
Cd:16
What are you doing this month:
This is the first month I told dh we have to have sex eod until I can confirm ovulation. He is totally on board with it!
Chart stalks/thoughts/rants/raves:
I am having fertile cm but only super faint lines on opk's. Pretty sure I geared up to O but failed. Way to go ovaries! ::claps slowly::
Gtky: Biggest pet peeve?
People who do not use please or thank you. People who purchase things while talking on their cell phone. People who do not give up their seats for the elderly, disabled or heavily pregnant. I do not truck with selfish asshats!
cycle/month: 7/7
cd: 4
What are you doing this month: green tea, water, vitamins
CS/thoughts/rants/raves: I introed earlier today...looking forward to joining you wonderful ladies!

cd:2
What are you doing this month: I think I will temp again and just do a natural cycle. Not ready for meds or more doctors visits.
chart stalks/thoughts/rants/raves: not much to say now. Just getting my feet under me.
gtky: piggest pet peeve: I have a friend which I use the term loosely who bitches that her now ex boyfriend was helping out an ex by loaning her money but got upset if he wasn't shelling it out for her as well. Don't *** about him helping someone out but be birchy if he doesn't buy you dinner, even after you broke up with him. Why should he pay for your dinner when you aren't dating.
My Ovulation Chart
**All AL Welcome**
TTC since July 2012 Me(42): normal HSG low progesterone 2.5 and TSH 13.9 DH(41): normal SA
Happy cd 1 for me....hope I didn't forget any waiting to o questions...
cycle/month: 8/9
cd: 3
What are you doing this month: Continuing to take hypothyroid medicine (just started recently), progesterone pills after ovulation, preseed, BD every other day and then a few days in a row once I get my + OPK
chart stalks/thoughts/rants/raves: I'm so frustrated with my body right now. And I want my DH to have his sperm count tested, because I feel like I beat myself up soo hard every month and it may have nothing to do with me at all... I may be slightly over dramatic lately!
gtky: piggest pet peeve: I'm irritated right now with a coworker. I hate people that just decide they don't like you since you won't kiss their a**. I expect to be treated as an equal - not bossed around when they aren't even close to being my supervisor! I can't wait until this person retires at the end of this year!!
Otherwise - my biggest pet peeve would be narrow minded people. I think that about covers any rant I could go on right now...
