Eta:Yup looked horrible. Fixed hopefully!
CD/DPO: 10
Timing: good
Testing plans: Today...BFN. I'm going away for the weekend, so I'll test again on Sunday.
Rants/Phantom Symptoms/Chart Stalks: lower back pain and cramps. I usually don't have pms cramps this far away...I'm ont due for AF until Wed.
GTKY: What is one thing you see current parents doing and you tell yourself 'I am not going to do that when I have a kid(s)'? No watching their kids at a playground. I'm not going to be a helicopter parent, but I'll at least watch my kids.
CD/DPO: 28/10
Timing: -6, -1
Testing plans: BFP this morning!!!!!! I'm kind of in shock. Was sure with all the spotting mid-LP that I was having another short LP. Set up my appt to get bloodwork and discuss it with my OB. Looks like I'll be changing that appt
Rants/Phantom Symptoms/Chart Stalks: Been AF-like crampy the past week (was like this when PG w/ DD2), been really tired the past week and falling asleep an hour earlier than usual at night. Used to drink a ton of coffee but for whatever reason, it's tasted gross to me the past few days and I've been drinking tea instead. Weird.
GTKY: What is one thing you see current parents doing and you tell yourself 'I am not going to do that when I have a kid(s)'? This is a loaded question

Cycle/Month: 3

Timing: -4,-3,-2,-1
Testing plans: today in the Friday cult and BFN on a FRER
Rants/Phantom Symptoms/Chart Stalk: my temp has been pretty high
GTKY: What is one thing you see current parents doing and you tell yourself 'I am not going to do that when I have a kid(s)'?
I am sure it will happen. I hope I make sure my kids don't touch other people's things with sticky hands
@lissydee , sounds like a congrats is in order hopefully!
FX for everyone else testing today!

Cycle/Month: 11 month trying
CD/DPO: 21/6
Timing: good according to FF
Testing plans: trying to wait til at least 10 DPO
Rants/Phantom Symptoms/Chart Stalks: yesterday I was tired, then later in the day had cramping and at night some spotting. Today I feel fine so far but somehow I'm sure that will change as the day progresses. My "symptoms" are sporadic
GTKY: What is one thing you see current parents doing and you tell yourself 'I am not going to do that when I have a kid(s)'? I feel like my parents still try to shelter me from bad news. I've talked to them about that and they've been better about keeping me in the dark. I hope that when I have kids and they are adults I won't still treat them like kids.
Cycle/Month: 5/5
CD/DPO: 17/6
Timing: -2, +1, so not great.
Testing plans: Tuesday because H has a day trip and it would be a cool surprise for him to come home to. Which is my cover story for "Tuesday is 10dpo and I like to pee on things"
Rants/Phantom Symptoms/Chart Stalks: No phantom symptoms that aren't made up in my head. And I couldn't get 3 hours sleep last night, so no temp this morning. I'm just a hot mess this cycle.
GTKY: What is one thing you see current parents doing and you tell yourself 'I am not going to do that when I have a kid(s)'? My biggest one was always technology related things. We make a huge effort to stick to not letting the kids have computerized things that aren't age appropriate. It's hard to do with our family being a blended family, because the other parent of each child likes to buy pricey whiz bang gadgets to buy love. DD had a conniption fit when I told her she couldn't have the laptop her BF bought her one Xmas, but dude, she was 6.
CD/DPO: 21/8
Timing: -1, O, +2
Testing plans: None yet
Rants/Phantom Symptoms/Chart Stalks: I've got nothin'. I'm tired? That's all.
GTKY: What is one thing you see current parents doing and you tell yourself 'I am not going to do that when I have a kid(s)'? I have a hard time answering this question, because I don't have kids.. and we all know how that works. You tend to do a lot of things you say you won't when you actually have one. Never say never and all that cliche stuff. But I will never SCREAM at my kids and belittle them like the lady across the street does.
CD/DPO: 43/11
Timing: -5, -4, -2, O, +1
Testing plans: Tomorrow. I will be 12 DPO and 12 is my lucky number.
Rants/Phantom Symptoms/Chart Stalks:
GTKY: What is one thing you see current parents doing and you tell yourself 'I am not going to do that when I have a kid(s)'?
CD/DPO: 25/6
Timing: -2
Testing plans: next week
Rants/Phantom Symptoms/Chart Stalks: temp went back up above coverline after yesterday's dramatic dip.
GTKY: What is one thing you see current parents doing and you tell yourself 'I am not going to do that when I have a kid(s)'? Have an obvious favorite. My mom has 4 kids and really treats one differently. I'm almost 30 & it still hurts.
CD/DPO: 18/6
Timing: -4 through O
Testing plans: at 10dpo (next Tuesday?)
Rants/Phantom Symptoms/Chart Stalks: Just not really sure when to test because I'm not positive when I O'ed. I've also had some lightheadedness and cramping, but I've been getting that all cycle.
GTKY: What is one thing you see current parents doing and you tell yourself 'I am not going to do that when I have a kid(s)'?
Spanking. I have a few friends who do lots of spanking. And I say less processed foods, but I'm realistic. I know that I won't be perfect, but it's something that's very important to me and DH so we'll do our best.
BFP 6/15/14 EDD: 2/24/15
@bim38106 Congratulations! Post pics!

@lissydee FX for darker more obvious line tomorrow!
Cycle/Month: 4/4
CD/DPO: 25/10
Timing: good... i'm hoping
Testing plans: this morning... I'm saying a BFN
Rants/Phantom Symptoms/Chart Stalks: Well tested again this morning at 4am (I woke up to pee and thought hey, why not) and the FRER was BFN. If I look at it now I can maybe make out a faint line but it's too long past the time I took it. I was so sad that I had gotten myself (and DH) all excited yesterday, that I could not go back to sleep. Tossed and turned and maybe got about an hour and a half. Took my temp when I woke up and it dropped again. Not below coverline but it was a drop. I didn't get a solid 3 hours before, so it might not be a valid temp. Took a Wondfo when I woke up and a BFN... but after 20 mins there is a faint line.... that's the evap line right? Too long to after the fact to really see a true result right? Well now all I can do is keep on testing until AF comes on Monday and pray that a line appears. I still feel nauseated and exhausted. RANT COMPLETE
GTKY: What is one thing you see current parents doing and you tell yourself 'I am not going to do that when I have a kid(s)'? Before I had DS I hated how parents yelled at their kids in public, but now that he is solidly in the 2s, I can see how I could be pushed to yelling in a crowded store when all your kid wants to do is get out of the cart and run the aisles. I like to think I keep my cool most of the time, but we all have those days. And as @lissydee said parenting kids is tough!

BFP #5 9/21/2014 due date 6/4/2014
CD/DPO: 19/3
Timing: -4.-2, O (so good)
Testing plans: Not for a while
Rants/Phantom Symptoms/Chart Stalks: I am just excited I actually got CHs today! This is my first time temping!
GTKY: What is one thing you see current parents doing and you tell yourself 'I am not going to do that when I have a kid(s)'? For us its cell phones. I was actually talking to my boss about this kids get phones in the 6th grade and that just feel so early! I said I would rather my kid be a loser then deal with the late night texting, calls or whatever else bad can happen when kids have phones!
CD/DPO: 32/12
What we did: We hit -2,-1, +1
How I told DH: DW passed me the wondfo this morning and I came out the bathroom saying "COME AND LOOK AT THIS". It was faint, but not a super squinter- but I have line eye. She agreed she saw something so I ran to the store and bought my first FRER. I tested SMU with that one and that's the one we cried over.
Mushy stuff: I have only been here since November and I've learned so much from your experiences. The internet is a dangerous place for people TTC and you guys were a safety net keeping me from entering the crazy abyss. I hope you don't mind if I continue to stalk- I've gotten quite addicted to pee stick photos.
EDD: 11/2/2014
@alphiesmom yay for CH! Temping is awesome.
BFP 6/15/14 EDD: 2/24/15
CD/DPO: 20/10
Timing: O-2
Testing plans: BFN on an IC this morning. Thought I had a FRER at home but I didn't. Picked some up on the way to work and will use waste one with SMU.
Rants/Phantom Symptoms/Chart Stalks: My phantom symptoms have been really light this LP. I'm starting to get a little bit of cramping, but it is a dull achy cramp rather than sharp stabby cramps I seem to get before AF. But that probably means nothing.
GTKY: What is one thing you see current parents doing and you tell yourself 'I am not going to do that when I have a kid(s)'? Never say never. 3 years ago I used to see toddlers with tablets and thought it was ridiculous and now it's a godsend with my 3 year old.

CD/DPO: 31/8
Timing: -4, -2, O, +2
Testing plans: 14 DPO if no AF
Rants/Phantom Symptoms/Chart Stalks: My breasts are killing me, I have some nausea, and I'm so tired. I think I got some kind of stomach bug on Wednesday and let myself jump on the crazy train looking for other possible symptoms.
GTKY: What is one thing you see current parents doing and you tell yourself 'I am not going to do that when I have a kid(s)'?
FX for you tomorrow @lissydee!
@lissydee I think I see something, but can't be certain it's not an evap. FX for a darker line tomorrow!

FX @lissydee I do see a line and it looks pink. I'd bet that's not an evap line.

Timing: -1, O, O+2
Testing plans: I chickened out this morning- there is a baby shower for a coworker today and I didn't want to watch her open cute baby girl gifts fresh off a BFN. LOL. So I will wait until tomorrow morning (maybe this afternoon after work if I can't wait any longer)

Rants/Phantom Symptoms/Chart Stalks: I'm just all over the place. For those of you keeping up with my dog saga, she went in for an ultrasound today, I told the vet to call my Husband with the results because I know I won't be able to get through the work day if it's bad news. My Mom is coming in town tonight for my sister's baby shower and I already told her it may be a rough night with lots of wine.
Chart wise, my temps have been slowly rising, guess that's a good thing?
GTKY: What is one thing you see current parents doing and you tell yourself 'I am not going to do that when I have a kid(s)'? I obviously have no idea how hard it is to raise kids but I really hate that our niece and nephew don't have basic manners. Our kids will know how to say please and thank you, and ask to be excused from the dinner table.

CD/DPO: 3dpo
Timing: -4, -1
Testing plans: 9-10dpo.
Rants/Phantom Symptoms/Chart Stalks: I just started progesterone today, so I'm sure the cramping and bloating will be here full force by Sunday.
GTKY: What is one thing you see current parents doing and you tell yourself 'I am not going to do that when I have a kid(s)'? Eat too much junk food. Well, three picky eaters later and I've found that my definition of "junk food" has changed dramatically. These days, I'm happy if I can get them to eat fruit.

What we did: eod since CD 11,
How I told DH: I had planned to take it sneakily in the downstairs bathroom while DH was in the shower and surprise him tonight, but he came down early for his cup of coffee. I heard him asking the cat where I was and said I was peeing. He asked if I was testing and I said yes, as I watched the test turn. He asked what is said and I asked "are you ready for this?" (romantic I know). I came out and showed him the test and he said "wow."
Mushy stuff: I have only been lurking since November and posting since January but in that time I have seen that you women are amazing! I have learned so much and enjoyed your snark and straight talk. I have my FX for all of the other Friday Cult testers and all of the other women here!
EDD: 11/2/2014
And now what I know you have been waiting for, the pee stick:
