Getting my first CH's! I didn't think I'd ever be able to actually temp because I tend to have temp spikes/drops from RLS. I figured I'd just give it a shot anyway and WOW, I had no diea I O'd so much later! I swore I O'd around CD 15 but this month it showed up at CD 20. So now I'm waiting to see if I just O'd late, or if I have a short LP since I typically run 29/30 day cycles.
This may be insignificant, but I didn't cry when I started cycle 8. That was the first time was able to take AF in stride. I think I'm slowly learning how to relax, and try for a baby without stressing myself and DH out.
I had a 14 day LP last cycle. Usually I'm at around 11-12 days, and it's always concerned me a little even though I know that's in the "normal" range.
Yay for small victories!

My small victory this week was making it alive & partially sane to my 5-day Turkey Break weekend. My students were seriously killing me this week, plus I'm in the 2ww, so anxiety is running high.

Re: AW your small victory
My victory is that I know that I O each month and that I have a sufficent length LP.
I may not have gotten pregnant on my first try (last cycle), but I know that it will happen. I just have to be patient.

I got my first REALLY positive opk yesterday and a slight temp rise today.
<<<Insert victory dance>>>
Here's to hoping that temp just goes up and up so I really did O and this isnt just a psyc out!
Thanks me too! ANd Charlie Brown. Lurve him.
Great post, repen!
I charted! Three days in a row I took my temperature, took a pic of it on my phone, and went back to sleep! Yay for me!
That DH's semen analysis was good! Only one small problem (semen too thick) and its an easy fix with mucinex twice a day!
One more part of testing down.
