Re: *~*~*~*2WW*~*~*~*

  • Cycle/Month: 5

    CD/DPO: 22/8

    Timing: O-3, 2, 1, O

    Testing Plans: I'm thinking of not testing at all and waiting for AF

    Symptoms/Thoughts/Rants/Chart Stalk Requests: No symptoms, just trying not to get my hopes up, fully expecting a BFN this month. 

    GTKY: What job/profession do you have?  Is it your ideal/dream job? ER doctor- I'm not sure if its my dream job. Some days I love my job and I can't imagine doing anything else, some days I'm miserable because I work nights, weekends, holidays, and it takes a toll. Maybe being a SAHM would be my dream job but I'm not sure b/c I don't have kids yet.

  • Cycle/Month: 17?

    CD/DPO: CD 29 / 15 DPO

    Timing: Good.

    Testing Plans: Done testing.

    Symptoms/Thoughts/Rants/Chart Stalk Requests:  Today is my birthday (the big 30!) and judging by the temp drop today, I should be getting another present.

    GTKY: What job/profession do you have?  Is it your ideal/dream job?  I am a project manager for a marketing research firm.  I like my job, but I am not sure it is my dream job.

    Symptoms/Thoughts/Rants/Chart Stalk Requests: poor sleep, dreams, sore nips - all unrelated to pregnancy of course but my mind is trying to convince me otherwise

    GTKY: What job/profession do you have?  Is it your ideal/dream job? I'm an insurance broker, not really my dream job but the office I work in is amazing.  The people I work for and with mean I will probably stay forever if they will let me.

  • Cycle/Month: 8/9

  • Cycle/Month: 3/3

    CD/DPO: 26/12

    Timing: excellent

    Testing Plans:  tested at 10 and 11 DPO.  BFNs.  I guess I'm out.

    Symptoms/Thoughts/Rants/Chart Stalk Requests:  I was convinced this cycle was it, but it looks as if it's not.  I'm considering temping now just to add another boost to everything.  I have three more cycles until I need to call my RE, so something has got to give before then.  I'm ready to be KU already. 

    GTKY: What job/profession do you have? Is it your ideal/dream job?   Credentialing Supervisor for hospital providers.  My dream job would be a hospital dietician, which I'm considering going back to school for, or involve a position where I'm able to work from home.

  • Cycle/Month:  1/2

    CD/DPO:  48/8

    Timing: Good, O-2 through O

    Testing Plans:  Maybe Thursday, but for sure on Friday since we have a holiday party in the evening

    Symptoms/Thoughts/Rants/Chart Stalk Requests:  Happy the post-O headaches went away for a few days, but they are back again today.  Not trying to read into any other symptoms since this is the first cycle of BCP and I don't know what is my "normal"

    GTKY: What job/profession do you have? Is it your ideal/dream job?   My original plan was to be a chemist, even finished out my BA in chemistry.  Back in school for accounting now.  The plan is to be a SAHM while we have younger kids.  My dream would to slowly start up my own business as our kids get a bit older, either photography or wedding planning.

  • Cycle/Month: We aren't officially trying till January.

    CD/DPO: CD8

    Timing: AF just left the building and I'm not far enough into charting to tell, purely basing it off of my 21 day cycle and just giving it a whirl till next month..

    Testing Plans: Just gonna do the 2ww because that's when AF will return for me.

    Symptoms/Thoughts/Rants/Chart Stalk Requests: Just crossing my fingers, we all know how nice it would be to not have to work at it to get ktfu.

    GTKY: What job/profession do you have?  Is it your ideal/dream job? I have my CNA and plan on going back for my lpn sometime soon. My CNA is definitely not my dream job. I have an AA in business, but once I was in the field hated it. I'd like to get my PA one day, but the motivation has yet to hit me. :-/ If I could do anything, I'd like to be a tattoo artist, but I'm not good enough.

  • Cycle/Month: 3

    CD/DPO: 14/5 (I think, going by CM only and math based on a 22 day cycle since I'm always either 22 or 26)

    Timing: -2O only, so I'm not overly optimistic...unless my O date is wrong...oh, who knows??

    Testing Plans: Going to try to wait until AF would be here next Thursday, but we'll see.  I'm so glad I'm not the only one who's discovered an addiction to peeing on things!

    Symptoms/Thoughts/Rants/Chart Stalk Requests:  Bloating and gas, but the bloating is nothing new.  It's unbelievable how much I notice my symptoms now that I'm paying close attention.  And how much I always think "This is new, I've never felt this before!", but really, I probably felt it last month.  I'm exhausting to deal with.

    GTKY: What job/profession do you have? Is it your ideal/dream job?. Market research...not sure if it's my dream job but I do enjoy it!

    Cycle/Month: 1/1

    CD/DPO: 30/12

    Timing: not the greatest

    Testing Plans: tested on 9 DPO and 11 DPO - both BFN

    Symptoms/Thoughts/Rants/Chart Stalk Requests: Ladies, I had a temp drop today and its my first month charting and TTC. Do I give up hope for this month now? I've had two BFN's.. so I'm pretty confident I'm out. But is there a glimmer of hope?? Confused  

    GTKY: What job/profession do you have? Is it your ideal/dream job? I'm an accountant. My dream job would be in animal care,

    There's always hope until AF shows.  Although 12 dpo seems late in TB world, it's actually still pretty early IRL.  Good luck.

  • Cycle/Month: 3/5

    CD/DPO: 28/4

    Timing: O-4, O-2

    Testing Plans: 12 - 14 dpo, depends on how long I can hold out

    Symptoms/Thoughts/Rants/Chart Stalk Requests: just mild cramps here and there and a sore right breast (yep, just the one) for the last two days. That's gone now. Getting less hopeful about this cycle, though there's no reason for that.

    GTKY: What job/profession do you have? Is it your ideal/dream job?. I teach high school math and science. I've always thought it was my dream job but now that I'm in the thick of it, I'm not convinced. Not sure what else I'd rather be doing, though I think about it from time to time. I wouoldn't rule it out in the future but it's too complicated to change careers right now.

    Testing Plans: Saturday, couple of days before my expected period

    Symptoms/Thoughts/Rants/Chart Stalk Requests: I am too much of a control freak to not chart so wishing I had just started charting in the beginning.

  • Cycle/Month: 6/8CD/DPO: 24/7Timing: O-4, 0-1, O+1Testing Plans: I like to think I will wait until 14 DPO, but I'll probably test on Friday (10 dpo) because I'm going away for the weekend and will likely have a few drinks if I"m not pregnant. Symptoms/Thoughts/Rants/Chart Stalk Requests: No real symptoms, some mild cramping this morning but it went away. GTKY: What job/profession do you have?  Is it your ideal/dream job? I am a faculty member at a large public university. I am mainly involved in research but also teach graduate-level courses from time to time. Yes, it is my ideal job- it is very flexible, I love the people I work with, and I work from home often.

    Testing Plans: Sunday

    Symptoms/Thoughts/Rants/Chart Stalk Requests: I'm just happy my boobs aren't hurting much this cycle. A couple months ago I developed a small painful lump in my left boob that's made my left boob ache post-O. The lump is going down and pain is so much less this month. 

    GTKY: What job/profession do you have?  Is it your ideal/dream job? I work for the health department in disease intervention. I interview people newly diagnosed with syphilis and/or HIV, make sure they get treatment and encourage them to tell me about their sex life so I can get their partners tested. It's sometimes difficult, but usually interesting. My dream job would be to return to the job I left 4 years ago after a move, which was a Children Services  adoption caseworker. I seriously loved it.
