Big math conference this morning, I got to sleep in a little! Much needed on a Friday! Cycle/ Month: CD: What are you doing? Thoughts/Rants/Questions/Chart Stalks?: GTKY: What are your weekend plans?
What are you doing? Temping, OPKs, EOD sex (we tried ED, that really didn't work), more water
Thoughts/Rants/Questions/Chart Stalks?: Come on O, what is taking so long! I really hope this is our cycle, I know it is only the 3rd cycle but this is really taking a toll on us.
Not to mention the MIL was bitching about how she does not have a grandchild at dinner the other night. Trying our best over here but ya know its not like I just put a baby in my uterus for her.
GTKY: What are your weekend plans?
Friday: Relaxing tonight
Saturday: Making homemade grape jelly, going to dinner with my brother and his girl friend and then going to a comedy club
What are you doing? Temping, charting, checking CM, CBEFM
Thoughts/Rants/Questions/Chart Stalks?: My temp was up yesterday and really spiked this morning, so I probably O'd. Waiting for FF to confirm tomorrow before moving over to 2WW.
GTKY: What are your weekend plans? Tonight into tomorrow, I'm going to be studying hard for a certification exam I'm taking Saturday afternoon. Saturday night, DH and I are going out to celebrate our belated anniversary. On Sunday, I'm meeting up with my Mom to help her train for her first 5K next month.
Cycle/ Month: 1/2 CD: 5 What are you doing? Got to work early and youtubed the genius that is "cat lover" upon my sister's 1 am recommendation. and OMG. Thoughts/Rants/Questions/Chart Stalks?: nope. GTKY: What are your weekend plans? I start a part time job Saturday night from 10pm-4am, so there goes my weekends. Other than that, just grocery shopping and doing some art projects and park time with the little monster
Cycle/ Month: 7/10 CD: 10 What are you doing? temping, charting, opks 2x day now until O is confirmed, EOD throughout cycle Thoughts/Rants/Questions/Chart Stalks?:This cycle is going by fast... can't believe it's almost O-time. I started opks yesterday afternoon and the line was darker this morning. Still - but will now start testing 2x/day. I feel (mentally) different this cycle - more relaxed and not so consumed with the TTC process. GTKY: What are your weekend plans? decorating the house for fall (mums, pumpkins, etc). Nothing too exciting since H is working all weekend.
Cycle/ Month: 1 CD: 30 What are you doing? Opk's, eod, temps, cf, cp Thoughts/Rants/Questions/Chart Stalks?: just waiting... I got a pretty dark second line yesterday afternoon but not quite there yet, hopefully it happens this weekend. GTKY: What are your weekend plans? I have an ultrasound this afternoon. Going to see the movie Prisoners tonight with DH.
ME: 29 DH:29 TTC #1 since September 2013 BFP Aug 27 2014, EDD- May 9 2015 - MMC Oct 16 2014
What are you doing? Temping, charting, cm, PNV's, drinking more water, HIO (we don:'t really keep to a schedule but we have increased our activities during my FW)
Thoughts/Rants/Questions/Chart Stalks?: I should O soon but my temps have been crazy all month so it's hard for me to gauge. Last month they were easier to read.
GTKY: What are your weekend plans? Dinner with my IL's tonight. Tomorrow is my birthday and we're going hiking & looking at a house that's for sale. Church on Sunday.
Thoughts/Rants/Questions/Chart Stalks?: Not yet. Just waiting.
GTKY: What are your weekend plans? Nothing exciting. Tonight, DH wants to go out for dinner in town and I'm playing along but I really don't care if we go into town or not. I'm happy to stay local (Read: I'm lazy). Then he is working the rest of the weekend and I'm supposed to have dinner with my uncle tomorrow night. Nothing too exciting.
@AandJ28 I've been meaning to get some mums and put the fallish stuff out, too. That might be a good idea for Sunday.
Cycle/ Month: 3 CD: 6 What are you doing? temping Thoughts/Rants/Questions/Chart Stalks?: nope GTKY: What are your weekend plans? I am going to find a second-hand dining room chair because I am cheap. This afternoon I am going take care of some weeds that have overrun our yard (we're *those* neighbors right now...it ends today!)
@lest12 - I feel like you all the time when it comes to going out to dinner... H will mention going downtown and I'm always telling him "Umm... how about not?" LOL. After driving into the city all week, the last thing I want to do is come back in here on the weekends. Do you and H have a fav restaurant? I feel like we always go to the same spots and I'm always looking for reco's and new places to try (when I actually feel like driving in).
What are you doing? Temping, preseed, sex ED during fertile window or at least EOD, inc water intake, trying to exercise more often
Thoughts/Rants/Questions/Chart Stalks?: Woke up too late to get an accurate temp for today, but no big deal since it's only CD3
GTKY: What are your weekend plans? We are celebrating my SIL's bday on Saturday. We're going to have to leave early in the morning to go hiking somewhere that's 3-4 hrs away, and there will be a nice dinner afterward. Then we have to spend the night at DH's parents' house so that we can pick up a piece of furniture in his home town the next morning.
ETA: I forgot it's also supposed to rain and thunderstorm on Saturday, so we'll see how the hiking turns out. We're probably still going to try because DH's family can have a one track mind sometimes, haha...
Married since 8.2.08 DS born 8.11.14 BFP #2: 9.14.16, EDD: 5.24.17
What are you doing? waiting for AF Thoughts/Rants/Questions/Chart Stalks?: I have the day off work. Good thing because I have a cold/sore throat. My thermometer read above 98 today but I'm assuming it is because I'm sick.
GTKY: What are your weekend plans? Babysitting my nephew who is 4 months younger than my DD. They are pretty much brother and sister, well they fight like it anyways.
@lest12 - I feel like you all the time when it comes to going out to dinner... H will mention going downtown and I'm always telling him "Umm... how about not?" LOL. After driving into the city all week, the last thing I want to do is come back in here on the weekends. Do you and H have a fav restaurant? I feel like we always go to the same spots and I'm always looking for reco's and new places to try (when I actually feel like driving in).
@AandJ28 - Exactly! Driving in and finding parking is a pain... and then if we both want to drink, it's even more of a hassle worrying about a cab or whatever.
We are the same way! We have a couple of spots that we really like - Masa in the South End, Tapeo on Newbury for tapas or sometimes Houston's if we're in Faneuil Hall... 9 times out of 10 we end up at those places.
My sister gave us a gift certificate for the Salty Pig last Christmas, though - that place was great! I'd recommend it (if you're into pork products, of course !)
I kinda rambled on, lol... but are there any places you guys like to go? We could use a new places ourselves!
@lest12 - I havent' heard of those places and have made a note! yay for new restaurants! (although I'm not a pork person so the Salty Pig may not happen)
We typically head into the North End... and will head into wherever there isn't a huge long line. Parking sucks everywhere and H is super picky because his car is his baby - in the North End, he can park in the Coast Guard barracks which is super convenient.
We also LOVE Silvertones. It's off Tremont, near the Omni Parker Hotel. It's where we had our first date and while it's small, the food is amazing and the bartenders mix up some really good drinks!
I agree that while it's great to come into the city, it's also a pain. Lucky for me, H isn't much of a drinker but it still sucks having a 30minute drive after a nice night out.
What are you doing?
OPKs, temping, charting, exercise, Metformin
Thoughts/Rants/Questions/Chart Stalks?:
Nope
GTKY: What are your weekend plans? My gym is doing a special tomorrow morning where they have samples of classes that are 30 mins long. You can go in each one just to test it out. There are a few I'm interested in but never have commited to going for an hour. The most inticing one for me is kettleball. Besides that deep cleaning our guest bath. We are planning on listing our house at the beginning of the year so I want to slowly get things ready so I don't have to do all the hardcore cleaning at once.
What are you doing? Temping, CM, PNV, OPK, ED sex, Preseed, lots of water
Thoughts/Rants/Questions/Chart Stalks? Wtf DH! Why are you having a hissy fit? I should be the one that's pissed off! You did absolutely nothing on our anniversary (not even a card!) because you said we were doing a trip this weekend. Then last night you threw your hands up all woe-is-me because you didn't like my logic of not driving up in the middle of the night to stay (and pay for) an additional night in the hotel. So then you say you don't want to bother going at all! To top it off you said you were too frustrated to have sex. You wanted to do ED buddy! So drop your drawers and do it!
GTKY: What are your weekend plans? Anniversary trip... or murdering my husband, only time will tell...
Cycle/ Month: 3/almost 7 CD: 51. FML. What are you doing? Temping, CM, CP, OPKs, Acupuncture, Chinese Herbs, lots of water, BD EOD or so, PNVs, Vitamin C supplements, praying a lot, and trying not to freak the eff out trying to stay calm. Thoughts/Rants/Questions/Chart Stalks?: A few things, actually.
1 - I love everybody on these boards and honestly are genuinely happy when I hear success stories, but I can't help but be green with envy when I see normal cycle lengths. I would give a lot to have a normal cycle naturally.
2 - I was REALLY REALLY REALLY certain that I O'd yesterday (+OPK two days ago, EWCM, increased sex drive, O pain, SHOW CP, and a temp dip), which would mean I would get a temp spike today. 'Yay!' I thought. But no. This morning it was a very normal temp. I'm feeling so irritated. I just want to cry.
3 - DH said to me the other day 'Don't you think everything you're doing to get pregnant might just be overkill?'
This was me:
And he was like:
Then I was like:
GTKY: What are your weekend plans? We are big time WSU Cougar fans and there's a home game this weekend in Pullman so I bought us tickets and we are driving down to the campus for a day to drink beer at our old college bar and cheer on the team at the game. Then Sunday is all about NFL (Go Hawks!), naps, and new crockpot recipes. YUM.
@jlynn62511 What was the conference? I'm a math lady myself. Big math conference this morning, I got to sleep in a little! Much needed on a Friday! Cycle/ Month: 6/#2 medicated CD: 4 What are you doing? Clomid + trigger, PNV, sex, acupuncture Thoughts/Rants/Questions/Chart Stalks?: None GTKY: What are your weekend plans? I'm maid of honor in a wedding this weekend.. very excited for the bride, very nervous about my toast.
Cycle/ Month: 2 CD: 3 What are you doing? Temping, cm, trying to drink more water Thoughts/Rants/Questions/Chart Stalks?: I'm considering getting some OPKs, just to confirm O day this month. GTKY: What are your weekend plans? Well the Wheelmobile is coming to town, so I could try out for Wheel of Fortune (don't laugh- I still haven't ruled that out)! But I'll more than likely sit around and watch college football. This is our first weekend without big plans in a while
@ramseySD - I was on The Price Is Right and I would highly recommend trying out! It's a once-in-a-lifetime thing and it would be so cool if you got on!
What are you doing? Charting temps...maybe starting OPKs this weekend... just trying to keep my head screwed on straight right now!
Thoughts/Rants/Questions/Chart Stalks?: OMG what a crazy past few weeks. It feels like ever since I got back from vacation things have been insane. I want to be good about temping and charting but this month I can barely remember to eat let alone chart. I really wanna jump DHs bones too but I've been so exhausted that I have passed out as soon as my head his the pillow every night.
GTKY: What are your weekend plans? RELAXING!!! I want to do absolutely nothing...
Jan15 December Siggy Challenge: Holiday Fails
TTC Since 4/13 | Me: 28 DH: 29 | DX: PCOS + High T + Arcuate Uterus (11/13)
Thoughts/Rants/Questions/Chart Stalks?: My temp went up some today. It has only ever been this high when I just started AF. It seems early to O, but this is my first month charting and off BC, so I have no idea what to expect. Thoughts? I'm totally overthinking this I think.... I also have no idea how to share my chart. Noob.
GTKY: What are your weekend plans? My parents are coming to visit tonight. Other than that probably just housework and grocery shopping. Woo! :-p

SLOs training, just learned we need to have 2 SLOs for the new OTES, Ohio teacher evaluation system. Our admin clearly have the wrong idea about SLOs, glad I went to this conference. It was very informative and the guy was even a former high school math teacher which is rare at these things!
Thoughts/Rants/Questions/Chart Stalks?:
It's been raining off and on all week here. So happy, we needed it.
GTKY: What are your weekend plans? Tonight, going to buy my goddaughter a bday present, books and something for dress up. Tomorrow, if it's not pouring we're going to plant a few things and get the front garden set up like I want to add more plants for fall planting season. And probably give the dogs baths. Sunday we'll hopefully finish painting the bedroom.

Cycle/ Month: 3/3 CD: CD4 What are you doing? Temping, waiting for my period to end. Then OPK's, CM, green tea, water, HIO. The usual. Thoughts/Rants/Questions/Chart Stalks? Horrible, heavy period this time around. Someone get me a heating pad. GTKY: What are your weekend plans? DH and I are re-finishing our cabinets. May go out to dinner with friends tonight. Take out and cabinet painting tomorrow night. Looking for new jobs.
What are you doing? At this point, just PNVs, temping and waiting for my period to leave. My husband wants me to skip temping and opks this month and just wing it because he thinks I'm stressing too much (and I got pregnant with our daughter with "just sex"). But now that I know about charting and whatnot, I'm afraid that I I'll stress *more* wondering. So I'll probably stick with it.
Thoughts/Rants/Questions/Chart Stalks?: Nah
GTKY: What are your weekend plans? My husband is playing in a rec softball league on Saturdays this fall, so if the weather's nice, DD and I will go watch/play at the field. Other than that, I'm not sure. I should do some major cleaning/organization. But I doubt I will

Thoughts/ rants/ questions/ chart stalks: I am using the clear blue fertility monitor for the first time this cycle! Only been trying 2 cycles, but I am eager to learn when I actually O. I failed epically at charting with temp and cervical mucus, so hopefully this dummy method helps! What are your weekend plans?: beach, hiking, relaxing
What are you doing? Temping, OPKs, CM, Green tea, some POM, about to start Mucinex. Thank you for reminding me ::goes to take Mucinex and comes back::
Thoughts/Rants/Questions/Chart Stalks?: I need to not O before DH gets here late this Sunday night. I know no one can do anything about this, but maybe, just maybe if I say it enough times in waiting-to-O posts... Hah.
GTKY: What are your weekend plans? Nothing special. Going out with some friends tonight. Staying in to avoid college football crowds tomorrow. Waiting to not O on Sunday.

What are you doing? Charting temps...maybe starting OPKs this weekend... just trying to keep my head screwed on straight right now!
Thoughts/Rants/Questions/Chart Stalks?: OMG what a crazy past few weeks. It feels like ever since I got back from vacation things have been insane. I want to be good about temping and charting but this month I can barely remember to eat let alone chart. I really wanna jump DHs bones too but I've been so exhausted that I have passed out as soon as my head his the pillow every night.

It seems early to O, but this is my first month charting and off BC, so I have no idea what to expect. Thoughts? I'm totally overthinking this I think.... I also have no idea how to share my chart. Noob.

GTKY: What are your weekend plans? Tonight, going to buy my goddaughter a bday present, books and something for dress up. Tomorrow, if it's not pouring we're going to plant a few things and get the front garden set up like I want to add more plants for fall planting season. And probably give the dogs baths. Sunday we'll hopefully finish painting the bedroom.
