when TTC. I took today off of work because my SIL is getting married tomorrow, so I'm taking her out for a day of pampering before the rehearsal dinner. Even though I didn't set my alarm, I always wake up at my normal wake up time for work and temp (around 615). I temped, got a high temp which confirmed three days of higher temps after ovulation. Now, this is my 2nd month charting, but my last few cycles were crazy and I don't even think I ovulated. After getting off BCP last summer, my body has taken quite awhile to regulate (I think running/training for a half didn't help either), so this is the first time that I know I actually ovulated, and on day 16 in my cycle!
Anyway, I was so excited that my temp was still high, I literally had to get up out of bed to go login to FF to enter the temp and actually SEE the crosshairs. My first set of crosshairs! hahaha I couldn't even get back to sleep...so pathetic. Isn't it funny what excites us when TTC? I am so excited I ovulated and my cycle seems back to normal, that getting pregnant would just be another bonus! (not getting my hopes up just yet) I'm trying not to think it was a "sign" that I got a + opk on our 2nd anniversary ![]()
Happy Friday everyone!
Re: The things we get excited about...
Ok, good to know that I'm not alone!

Guilty of this too!
Awesome! I didn't know they had a phone app...way easier! And I think we are all guilty of running to input any updated info, haha if my husband only knew!
Thanks, ladies!
ME TOO!!!I'm Britt. Me 29 | MH 29
Definitely invest in the FF app. It's great access to stare at your chart without other people noticing.
And the bolded part, I don't usually have my phone with me but while I'm laying with my hips propped for 10 min (yeah, yeah, I know), my H usually tosses it to me because he know I will input it.
Me, too!
