Phantom Symptoms: Is not sleeping worth a damn a symptom? Are vivid dreams of BFPs and temp drops symptoms? If no, then nothing.
Timing: O-2, O-1, O, O+1
Feelings about this Cycle: No effing clue. I dont really know how long my LP is supposed to be. My temps are still up. We will see what my temp is tomorrow.
Testing Plans: tested again this morning - stark white test. Boo.
GTKY - What is your favorite stress-relieving activity? (Other than sex, of course!)Crossfit is a great stress relief after a hard day. I also just like to turn on some loud music and jam out.
dmw, I think you & I are in the same boat... I've been having some crazy vivid dreams too. And I also have no idea how long my LP typically is, been getting BFNs since 10DPO. Your chart looks great, best of luck to you!
Your chart looks good too! Hopefully we get some answers soon!! I'm a little annoyed by the crazy dreams and lack of sleep. The past 5 days have been horrible! FX!!
Feelings about this Cycle: Cautiously optimistic... we had great timing but it's only my 2nd cycle
Testing Plans: Gave in & starting testing yesterday. BFN's so far, but my temps are still up so I'll keep testing until they go down and/or AF shows up.
GTKY - What is your favorite stress-relieving activity? (Other than sex, of course!) Reading, taking a nice long walk, or playing with my dogs
Your chart does look good, Laura. Good luck, girl!

Cycle/Month: #5
CD/DPO: 23/5
Phantom Symptoms: Too early
Timing: FF says good but we only got sex in once during my FW on O-1. However, we did it O-4 and O-5 too so maybe there's hope.
Feelings about this Cycle: Not so good...but I almost always feel that way.
Testing Plans: Not even thinking about that. I'm sure I'll just be waiting for AF to show.
GTKY - What is your favorite stress-relieving activity? (Other than sex, of course!) I really love to read and I can always submerse myself in a good book to take me away from my problems. That and snugging with DH and our dogs
Phantom Symptoms: I was really, really trying not to overanalyze these this month but, come on, last night I had my first BFP dream ever (really weird, vivid dream), I've been having acid reflux (don't think I ate anything to trigger it), and lower back/hip pain.
Timing: O-3, O-2, O-1, O+1
Feelings about this Cycle: I don't want to get my hopes up. It's so hard.
Testing Plans: Only if AF is a no-show. I have 7 more days to go.
GTKY - What is your favorite stress-relieving activity? (Other than sex, of course!) Napping, which is what I wish I was doing now.
*TTC since 09/11
*Me-29 (low AMH)
*DH-35 (moderately low sperm count)
*First RE appointment 09/12
*IUI #1 with injectables 12/12
Phantom Symptoms: I'm trying really hard not to think about them as much this time around and so far it's working.
Timing: O-3, O-1, O, and O+1.
Feelings about this Cycle: Quite positive, though I don't want to be disappointed, so I'm trying not to overanalyze everything. My temps look good though, but who knows.
Testing Plans: Well, my temps keep rising, so maybe tomorrow but I'll try to hold out for at least Friday or Saturday since my LP is usually 14 days.
GTKY - What is your favorite stress-relieving activity? (Other than sex, of course!) I love listening to music or just laying down with my DH and talking.

Well ladies I am off to the Waiting to O board. AF has arrived in glory. I will say this, after 2 years of insanity with annovulation, having a nice normal 35 day cycle is....well....very pleasing! Next month I am hoping for a nice normal cycle so I can predict my O and get our BD on!!!

Thanks! He can be a handful but overall is a great dog. It's amazing how smart Corgis are. Is your dog a Corgi too? He kind of looks like one except his ears are pointier than I usually see on Corgis. Love that "Corgi smile" he's got going on, so cute!
Thanks! He is definitely all Corgi He can also be a handful, we rescued him almost a year ago and are working on his dislike of other dogs (and squirrels, and cats, and everything furry) but he is such a sweetheart otherwise!
