Chart stalk/Rants/Raves/etc.: my pre-O temps are higher this month. I'm hoping I see a clear shift when I do O.
GTKY: What are you looking forward to this weekend?
H and I are going out to dinner. My mom is watching C for us. Sometimes it feels like we are passing one another on the way in/out the door, so it will be nice to reconnect.

What are you doing to get KU? I got a new Mabis (after I melted mine last cycle), so there's that, PNV's, my green tea, iron & D3 which I don't think I've mentioned before but I was found deficient in them so I made sure that I am taking them. In the fall I wasn't so great at remembering. Also H switched to boxers after last cycle. I might also try mucinex this cycle just for fun.
Question: Those of you who have taken mucinex specifically for TTC, did you take it from CD1 onward to O, or just around when you thought you'd O?
Chart stalk/Rants/Raves/etc.: nothing just popping my head in here sporadically, rather than posting religiously. I think it's helping.
GTKY: What are you looking forward to this weekend? Working on the house (as much as I don't love doing it anymore it means we're progressing), and a friend's engagement party Saturday.
CD: 60!
What are you doing to get KU? Pretty much given up on temping.
Chart stalk/Rants/Raves/etc.: My appointment with the fertility clinic that we are using for donor eggs is on the 24th so I'll let them decide how to end this cycle.
GTKY: What are you looking forward to this weekend? Doing absolutely nothing. The past three weekends we have been out of town so I need a weekend to recoup.
CD: 13
What are you doing to get KU? Sex, OPKs
Chart stalk/Rants/Raves/etc.: Starting to get antsy about O, was hoping to sneak in some sex this AM but DH got up and went to work early. We will be out of town this weekend and he's already expressed the fact that he does not want to have sex in someone else's house even if it means potentially missing my FW. Part of me wants to respect that, the other part wants to scream and tell him to suck it up that I'm not missing out on this month. Besides, it's not like we've never had sex at someone else's house before, so what's the big deal. The nail in the coffin is there's a good chance he will be out of town next month during what could very likely be my FW. I'll be damned if we miss out two months in a row.
GTKY: What are you looking forward to this weekend? I'm looking forward to seeing my family and celebrating my grandma's 100th birthday! Even if DH is being a cock block.

@englandxo I'm not great at reading charts, sorry. You know your body though!
@emsrdh03 my DH would probably feel the same way. Sorry! Hope you get in some sex anyway
Cycle/month: 3/4
CD: 12
What are you doing to get KU? Green tea, PNV, water, sex
Chart stalk/Rants/Raves/etc.: LOL at FF giving me an 18 day FW. Good one, FF. Obviously neither of us have any idea when I will O this cycle, but I'm feeling optimistic that it will be earlier this time! Still not sure when to start OPKs...
GTKY: What are you looking forward to this weekend? More 50 degree weather and hanging out with my husband and daughter
@FINEdoubleLINE I hope all goes well today! I know it's a big step. Hugs!
Cycle/month: 9

What are you doing to get KU?POM(lots of EWCM last cycle)FF, temping n OPK
Chart stalk/Rants/Raves/etc.:just happy that AF is wrapping up... I'm ready for a loooonng vacation from her...UGGH
GTKY: What are you looking forward to this weekend? A new hair do,sexy time and a baby shower n maybe the 1st two things will lead to another baby shower for me in December
Cycle/month: 2/2

What are you doing to get KU? temping, FF, sex EOD (might do ED starting tonight through Sunday though), green tea, lots of water

BFP 9/27/13 - Natural MC 10/6/13
April 2014 IUI #1 - Femara + Ovidrel + Crinone = BFP! EDD 1/1/15
CD: 19
What are you doing to get KU? temping, HIO at least EOD
Chart stalk/Rants/Raves/etc.: Nothing problematic, I think I O'ed the day before yesterday just waiting on temps to confirm before heading to the 2WW (I worked overnight last night so I won't be taking today's temp until I wake up this afternoon). If I did in fact O, this is the first month that we've had really good timing so I'm excited about that!
GTKY: What are you looking forward to this weekend? My husband and I are going out of town Saturday for a fancy dinner at this brewery, 5 courses with beer pairings and pretty much all you can drink. Very excited to get away! And very excited that it's early enough in the 2WW that I don't feel weird drinking slightly excessively.
CD:4
What are you doing to get KU?: so far: PNV, BBT, green tea and pom juice. Sex soon
Chart stalk/Rants/Raves/etc.: none. I'm just loving the fact that this is probably the only time in my cycle I'm not analyzing everything..too soon to O and not in the mindfuck that is the 2ww.
GTKY: What are you looking forward to this weekend? St. Patty's celebrating!!! I love this holiday. We have a hotel booked and are going to party like we're back in college.
Good luck @FINEdoubleLINE
CD:18
What are you doing to get KU?PNV, temping, OPK, coconut oil
Chart stalk/Rants/Raves/etc.: I think I O'd yesterday, as my temp this morning was 98.2 and it was 97.2 yesterday. Will probably HIO once more tonight while I wait for CH's.
GTKY: What are you looking forward to this weekend? We're moving on Tuesday, so we're going to be packing this whole weekend. Can't believe I'll be in my new house at this time next week!

@kap617 I have 50 Wondofos just sitting in my cabinet...thinking I'll start next week in the spirit of optimism...you?
Cycle/month: 5
CD: 14
What are you doing to get KU? Sex the last two days in a row, EOD before that, and a whole bunch of other things (pom juice, green tea, tons of water, preseed, FertileCM, temping and opk's).
Chart stalk/Rants/Raves/etc.: I'm a little confused this morning. I had a pretty big temp spike, but also my first truly positive OPK. I had one that was kinda dark yesterday afternoon, but after I had been drinking lots and lots (like a ridiculous amount, actually) of fluids throughout the day due to wanting to increase CM, so I am wondering if the urine was just too diluted and I O'd last night. I do seem to not get the positive until the actual day that I O, but based on the temp I think that probably happened yesterday. Oh well, I put in positive OPK for yesterday and today into FF due to the pretty dark one yesterday and the blazing positive today. Guess I'll just see what my temps do moving forward.
GTKY: What are you looking forward to this weekend? My parents are visiting us! They live about 3.5 hours away so it's nice when they come for a weekend. I want to continue HIO though because I'm not totally sure I already O'd, so that will mean awkward quiet sex. Oh well, I'll take it!

What are you doing to get KU? temping, opks
Chart stalk/Rants/Raves/etc.: I'm trying to be more relaxed about the TTGP thing. Hopefully it happens.

Cycle/month: 5/5 (+20mo not charting)
CD: 1
What are you doing to get KU? Going to schedule an HSG and FSH. Continue charting, start OPKs around CD 10. Hopefully moar sex leading up to and throughout FW.
Chart stalk/Rants/Raves/etc.: Nothing yet. But I feel like I got an uppercut (uppercunt) punch to the vulva. Ugh.
GTKY: What are you looking forward to this weekend? Some SUNSHINE! And hopefully doing some re-grouting and fixing the leak at the washing machine.

What are you doing to get KU? Temping, checking CM, PNV, preseed
Chart stalk/Rants/Raves/etc.: being tortured by unlikely dotted crosshairs. Ladies in the newbie thread agreed that it didn't look like I really O'd yet. Rats. https://fertilityfriend.com/home/374c83
GTKY: What are you looking forward to this weekend? Leaving for vacation and getting away from all the snow!
@Salamander610 I missed the convo, but why the rocky chart? How confident are you in the CM checks? Are you using OPKs? If not, you might want to try them. My charts are always rocky too (and this month is looking crazy already) but everything else always lines up for me and the shift is a bit more obvious. Still, you have a definite upward temp trend!
CD: 20
What are you doing to get KU? Metformin, Femara, OPKs, Temping
Chart stalk/Rants/Raves/etc.: What the shit. Why have I not ovulated yet? My RE is out of town W-F of this week and I'm going out of the country tomorrow for two weeks. I have no idea what's going on in my ovaries since my last appointment was on Monday. Gaaaah, I'm going to miss my fucking fertile window again. I just have to keep reminding myself that this is the last work trip I'll ever have to do, next month will be our month for sure.
GTKY: What are you looking forward to this weekend? I have a long flight ahead of me, sooo the free wine in business class?
TTC #1 October 2012

2/14: Benched = BCP
3/14: Femara = BFN
4/14: Break for job change = BFP!! EDD 1/5/15
I am definitely going to try OPKs next cycle if this one doesn't work out!
CD: 13
What are you doing to get KU? HIO, temping, PNV, water, green tea
Chart stalk/Rants/Raves/etc.: my chart is so ugly. I had a slight temp rise today so I'm wondering if I O'ed yesterday. It's so hard to tell, my chart looks like a mountain range. I don't feel like I did O (I usually get bloating and cramping) so I'm sticking around here for awhile and keep HIO. I'm drinking this weekend so that won't help my chart any.
GTKY: What are you looking forward to this weekend? Going out on a dinner/martini date tomorrow, I can't wait.
BFP 6/15/14 EDD: 2/24/15

What are you doing to get KU? PNV, Pom juice, OPKs, Temping, Preseed just arrived
Chart stalk/Rants/Raves/etc.: I have had a couple dips but I know I haven't ovulated yet, way too early for me. Just a waiting game now. W2O is so much less stressful than 2WW
GTKY: What are you looking forward to this weekend? relaxing, maybe some drinking for St Paddys day

What are you doing to get KU? All the things. Maybe adding Pom juice.
Chart stalk/Rants/Raves/etc.: nope, but that will start when I begin OPKs next week I'm sure.
GTKY: What are you looking forward to this weekend? My sister and BIL are coming over to hang out. I will be giving her maternity clothes. I hope the weather is nice so we can talk DD to the park but I think it's going to be too cold
CD: 19
What are you doing to get KU? PNV, temping, OPK, acupuncture
Chart stalk/Rants/Raves/etc.: I really thought I O'd on CD16... I had a very positive OPK the day before, EWCM, had a temp drop on CD16 and then it started rising back up on CD17&18 (and the OPKs are negative now and the EWCM went away), but today my temp went back down. So frustrated. WTF body.
GTKY: What are you looking forward to this weekend? Looking forward to spending some time relaxing with my husband, hoping it doesn't rain the whole weekend so we can get outside a little bit!
@englandxo I would also say yesterday as O day, but it's showing up really weird for me for some reason.
@DarcyHermione I hope O is eminent. FW during the weekend would be good timing!
@emsrdh03 I hope DH loosens up and you guys can DTD.
@""Kawaii Kitsune" happy birthday!! Birthday sex is the best.
@katehgee I love to get a +OPK, too!
Sorry about this cycle @Brewgirl1980. I hope it goes back to baseline soon. Enjoy your alone time!
@SassyMommaC I hope the virus is all gone by tomorrow! I love to clean an empty house!
@Siamese253 I hope you O soon and get one more fertile day in there.
@haloform I can't see your chart, but could it be a fallback rise? I've had them the past 2 months.
@norweigan happy late birthday! If we don't succeed this cycle I think I'm going to go with a more relaxed approach as well.

What are you doing to get KU? Sex and PNV..temping.
Chart stalk/Rants/Raves/etc.: I'm irritated today. I thought I O'd CD21. I had a temp dip that day (which I've had a few of) and then a big rise...but I had a little tiny dip today. I finally have some post O symptoms and am tired and have some sensitive boobs. Can anyone chart stalk me and give me some hope I finally O'd? No CH's obviously, but with my CP and CM I'm thinking I had to have O'd a couple days ago.
GTKY: What are you looking forward to this weekend? Let's see, we are action packed. We've got DD softball game and opening ceremonies, DH's grandma's 89 b-day, A baby shower, a friends birthday party, dinner with my parents...and somewhere in there I need to visit costco. I don't know if there is time
CD: 18
What are you doing to get KU? sex, temping, CM checks, prenatals
Chart stalk/Rants/Raves/etc.: For those who remember me saying we needed to buy a new car, we bought it yesterday. That wasn't the plan, but our old car broke down completely on our way home from a test drive, so we went back and bought the car we test drive. Luckily we had been looking and it was one of out top 2 cars.
GTKY: What are you looking forward to this weekend? Resting from the emotional mess that was this last week.
CD: 20
What are you doing to get KU? Giving up on sex at this point. Temping. PNV.
Chart stalk/Rants/Raves/etc.: Had a temp spike today but negative OPK. We'll see what happens this weekend. I just want to O or get AF already.
GTKY: What are you looking forward to this weekend? I'm a dork, but I'm looking forward to cleaning my house. I love the smell and feel of a clean home. I don't get much cleaning done throughout the week and hate having a mess and piles of clothes. I also look forward to drinking some wine and pina coladas!

What are you doing to get KU? Cabergoline, Provera.
Chart stalk/Rants/Raves/etc.: Tonight is my last night of Provera! Yay for hopefully moving on soon!
GTKY: What are you looking forward to this weekend? H and I were going to go to a nice restaurant for my birthday (which was about a week ago), but we are both pretty sick, so we're rescheduling to some time when we can actually enjoy it. Instead, we'll probably get carry out and maybe go purse shopping! :-)
CD: 3
What are you doing to get KU? Not sure yet.
Chart stalk/Rants/Raves/etc.: I went to my RE This morning, my HCG is back negative so I'm no longer pregnant but I have 2 large cyst on my right ovary, 22mm and 17mm. My lining is still 7mm and I'm still bleeding a lot. I have to go back next Wednesday for an us to see if the cyst go down. If they don't I have to get on Bc until they do. It also looked like I ovulated 3 eggs and not 2. One of them grew quickly in the last stretch. 3 fucking eggs, you would think 1 of them was good.
GTKY: What are you looking forward to this weekend? My fun started today AFTER the appt. I've been at a garden show all day buying tons of plants. I'm going to help a friend plant this evening and then go have drinks at a friends on the porch. Tomorrow I'm doing my planting and I have tickets to see Memphis tomorrow night. Then Sunday is the mother son dinner at my sons school.
CD: 17
What are you doing to get KU? Trying to temp/chart but it's been a crazy month.
Chart stalk/Rants/Raves/etc.: my temp was up for 3 days and I got dotted CH on ff. I had NO fluid at all and was surprised. I get Ew cm last night and still today. Guessing I didn't O yet. H had surgery so I am guessing we are out this month already as I don't think anything will be happening anytime soon. I has a sad.
GTKY: What are you looking forward to this weekend? Spending time with H.
