Starting this because no one else has! Wooop my first time starting a TWW thread!

Cycle/Month:

CD/DPO:

Timing:

Testing Plans:

Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks/Phantom Symptoms,Etc:

GTKY: If you were a crayon, what color would you be? Explain yo'self!

ImJessesGirl · May 2014

Cycle/Month:2/2

CD/DPO:32/10 dpo

Timing: -2

Testing Plans: Not until AF doesn't show.

Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks/Phantom Symptoms,Etc: Ok, correct me if I'm wrong here, but I think when you're KTFU, your temp gradually rises every day, correct?? If so, then I am not KTFU, because my temp is gradually declining since 8 dpo. Am I reading into it too much??? Ugh, probably so!!!! F U, TWW!!! I am also cramping a bit like AF is on her way. That bitch.

GTKY: If you were a crayon, what color would you be? Explain yo'self!
I'd be red because it's a passionate color. I have red hair and people say it suits me because I'm feisty!

MrsMCBMar2014 · May 2014

ETA: @ImJessesGirl - YAY for starting your first 2WW thread!!!

Month/Cycle: (I changed it because it makes more sense) 3/4

CD/DPO: 21/3

Timing: -4, -2, -1, +1 = good on FF - but great per me!

Testing Plans: FF says 5/31 but possibly next Thursday (10dpo) or next Saturday (12dpo)

Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks/Phantom Symptoms,Etc: Just happy I got my CH. Using OPK this month helped me greatly. DH was excited when I got the smiley face...and has been even more excited after I said I got my CH this morning. I told him to not get his hopes up.

GTKY: If you were a crayon, what color would you be? Explain yo'self! Ooohh boy. I'd probably be bright pink, because I love the color and well, it's bright dammit! Not to mention, DH thinks it's because I'm bright and bubbly.

ImJessesGirl · May 2014

@MrsMCBMar2014 Hollaaa for CHs!!!

MrsMCBMar2014 · May 2014

@ImJessesGirl - I know right? As soon as I took my temp this AM and entered it, I nearly jumped out of bed for CH's showing up. I normally don't get that excited but our timing is great and I'm hopeful...but won't get super hopeful, ya know?

ImJessesGirl · May 2014

@MrsMCBMar2014 I so know what you mean. You want to be hopeful, but afraid to be at the same time because you're protecting yourself from being disappointed.

@michyme123 hahahaha, popped my cherry! What thermometer are you currently using??

ImJessesGirl · May 2014

@michyme123 When I first got here, I asked if the room/house temperature would affect your temperature and they all said no.

ava826 · May 2014

@michyme123, I feel like we're in the same boat at the moment.

Cycle/Month: 1/1

CD/DPO: 21/7

Timing: -5, O

Testing Plans: I just remembered that my cousin gave me her supply of cheapies after she got KU, so why not? Prob. at 14DPO even though I don't have high hopes for this cycle.

Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks/Phantom Symptoms,Etc: And my temp's back down. I have no idea WTF is going on anymore. I think I said that yesterday. I'm not really even sure I O'd.

GTKY: If you were a crayon, what color would you be? Explain yo'self!

I'd prob. be very dark blue, cause that's the color I always choose.

Irishcurls · May 2014

Cycle/Month: 1

CD/DPO: 25/3

Timing: Meh

Testing Plans: No

Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks/Phantom Symptoms,Etc: I got CH this morning, but I'm sort of hoping my temp spikes again and ff changes them.....because....that would improve our timing. This is the weirdest cycle I've had (TTA for 5 previous), very low pro-O temps, very late (for me) O. Who the fuck knows. I hate Coldstone Creamery.

GTKY: If you were a crayon, what color would you be? Explain yo'self! They make a chartreuse crayon in the big 128 color box right? I'd be that one, cause it's the best, happiest, best color on the planet.

rlpointer · May 2014

Cycle/Month: 2/3

CD/DPO: 30/11

Timing: O-4, O

Testing Plans: Saturday I guess. My temperature usually drops two days or so before AF comes, so if my temperature drops that day then there we go, I probably won't test. But if it doesn't then I will.

Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks/Phantom Symptoms,Etc: I woke up with a monster of a headache. I've had a headache the last couple of days that I just can't seem to get rid of. It's driving me bonkers. Otherwise, I'm just dragging. It seems like no matter how much sleep I get, I'm still completely exhausted.

GTKY: If you were a crayon, what color would you be? Explain yo'self! I'm going to go with green. No clue why. It's just the first color that popped into my head. Maybe that means something...?

LadyXaverian · May 2014

@Imjessesgirl Do you have VIP FF? Your temp does not need to climb and climb. It can be up and down and still end with a BFP. If you have VIP, off on the side, click on "chart galleries" and choose "charts like mine" and then choose "pregnancy". It will make you feel better about your fluctuating temps, although you might lose an hour of your day. It's easy to spiral in the FF chart galleries.

Good luck!

smg2302 · May 2014

@imjessesgirl it always makes me happy when you throw a y'all into your post. I was hoping there would be one!

Cycle/Month: 1/1

CD/DPO: 22/8

Timing: good

Testing Plans: 10 dpo, after AF

Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks/Phantom Symptoms,Etc: I went to bed at 8:30 last night and slept until my alarm at 5:30. It was glorious but ridiculous.

GTKY: If you were a crayon, what color would you be? Explain yo'self! 128 box macaroni and Cheese because Macaroni and Cheese.

ImJessesGirl · May 2014

@SarahL77 , I don't have VIP FF, but I've contemplated buying it. IDK...

@smg2302 sorry to disappoint y'all, lol. I'll make sure to throw it in there from now on!

ImJessesGirl · May 2014

@sugahcookie01 Sorry about the BFN... but hey, you're having a longer LP, which is a step in the right direction, OR you're KTFU!! Let's hope for KTFU, lol. Also, I love the color you chose. Your happy-go-lucky attitude makes me really just like you a whole bunch, lol. (was that awkward??? ha ha ha)

MaddScientist · May 2014

Cycle/Month: 8 (5AL)

CD/DPO: 32/17

Timing: -3, -2, O

Testing Plans: BFN

Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks/Phantom Symptoms,Etc: So, for my loss cycle I took my very first test and got my first (and only) BFP at 17DPO. However, the line was faint, much fainter than it should be at 17DPO. I rationalized: I took the test at night, urine was too dilute, the line showed up fast, a line is a line, etc. But, obviously there was some truth and a week and a half later I was bleeding and it was over. I was very very scared the exact same thing would happen if I tested today. However, I am a rational empiricist so told myself to stop being silly. So, I tested and in fact the same thing didn't happen - instead I got a big fat 'not pregnant' on a digi this morning. FML and my long LP!

GTKY: If you were a crayon, what color would you be? Explain yo'self! BLACK!! (at least this morning)

EDIT: so I went out at lunch and got a FRER for comparison/experimentation (and apparently because I am a masochist) and it was a faint positive, even lighter than my last pos. at 17DPO with my CP - So, the exact same thing I was afraid of happening, in fact, IS happening. And, now I am assuming I am in the midst of another CP. Fuck. Me.

UnicornsAndGlitter · May 2014

Cycle/Month: 1

CD/DPO: 29/8

Timing: good

Testing Plans: none at this point

Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks/Phantom Symptoms,Etc:
Got a new thermometer (Mabis) and a bunch of Wondfos in the mail yesterday!

GTKY: If you were a crayon, what color would you be? Explain yo'self!
I have no idea. Probably one of the metallic ones, because... I like them?

MrsMCBMar2014 · May 2014

@smg2302 - Macaroni and Cheese....reminds me of the Friends episode...

Friends is my jam.

ava826 · May 2014

sugahcookie01, I discarded that one temp because my DH woke me up an hour before I temped to turn on the ceiling fan, so I hadn't slept for 3 hours and I was freezing when I woke up.

ImJessesGirl · May 2014

@MaddScientist sorry about the BFN.

@UnicornsandGlitter omg the silver and gold crayons were my freakin jam back in elementary days. I also got a shipment of Wondfos in for next cycle.

For some reason that Tyga song "Rack City" just popped in my head and now I'm singing "stick city bitch, stick stick city bitch... "

Hi- I have been a lurker for some time now, and this is me and my DHs first month TTC.
Cycle/Month: 1/1 (did I do this right?? I still can't figure out what the difference is between cycle and month- checked the newbie blog and everything)

CD/DPO: 15/2

Timing: -7, -3, 2, -1, O, +1

Testing Plans: 10 DPO (before I leave for vacation) then I will go from there...

Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks/Phantom Symptoms,Etc: To be honest, I feel like crap. I never ever wake up at night, and last night I woke up with terrible stomach pains/nausea. Proceeded to become besties with my toilet bowl. Woke up this morning wanting scrambled eggs. Made them, had like 4 bites, then threw them out because my stomach was in knots again. If I do get a BFP, then I have a longgggg road ahead of me if it is anything like this. Oh, and next thing I need to do is get a signature. Putting that on my to do list.

GTKY: If you were a crayon, what color would you be? Explain yo'self!: I would probably be Cerulean. It was my favorite crayon color growing up, and I personally think it is the prettiest blue in the box.

Because your cycle can go longer than a month. For instance, if you have a 40 day cycle, that's longer than a month.
Welcome aboard and hope this is it for you!!! Have a great vacation!
BTW, I just like the word Cerulean.

LadyXaverian · May 2014

Cycle 4

CD 25/10 DPO

-5, -4, -3, -2, O

Testing: BFP!

Please forgive me for not knowing the exact BFP format, but here is the info...

EDD: January 26th, 2015

Details: I got a faint BFP on a wondfo last night at just 9 dpo. I swore I'd wait until 12 dpo, but I have felt off for a couple of days, especially yesterday, so I POAS on a whim. I was very surprised to get a faint but obvious line. I picked up an FRER and a Digi and tested this morning. Both tests were positive.

Symptoms: There was nothing that screamed "pregnancy". I had some cramping a few days ago, and yesterday, I had a couple of waves of feeling nauseated and ravenously hungry at the same time. I mean, I could list a dozen little things, but not of them are really out of the ordinary for the 2ww, so who knows.

How I told DH: When I got the faint + last night, I was getting ready to leave for a HS graduation. I took the stick to him and said, "I hate to tell you this and then leave, but I think I'm pregnant." He agreed he could see a faint line. He told our daughter, "Your little life is about to be turned upside down!" We are pretty excited and nervous because I'm "AMA" and not at a healthy weight right now, but we've agreed to just do the best we can to keep me as healthy as possible.

Love for all of you: I've been lurking on this board pretty much non-stop after my last BFP in 2010, but it was weird coming back in as an active poster with a new group of regs and a different dynamic. I have felt so welcome, and I've really appreciated the support and encouragement of the 2ww threads where it is ok to ride the crazy train in all its glory. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

I'll still be lurking and hoping for BFPs for all of you, and I'll be posting in the grad check-ins.

chaysefaith · May 2014

Haven't had a chance to read all the responses yet.

Cycle/Month: 1/1

CD/DPO: 26/12

Timing: Good

Testing Plans: every damn day. I thought maybe more super squinters today, but if today was a super squinter yesterday was a bfn. I think I mostly just have line eye.

Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks/Phantom Symptoms,Etc: last month my temp took a nose dive 2 days before my period, which should have happened today and didn't. I'm certifiably insane.

GTKY: If you were a crayon, what color would you be? Explain yo'self! Pink. Because it's awesome. Just. Like. Me. (I kid, I kid)

ImJessesGirl · May 2014

@SarahL77 omg omg omg congratulations!!! That is awesome!!!! Best wishes to you for a happy and healthy 40 weeks! BTW, if I get a BFP this cycle, we'll have the same due date!

ImJessesGirl · May 2014

@SNLT1012 What brand test are you using?

Bennfield10 · May 2014

::dirty lurking::
@SarahL77‌ Congratulations <:-P n T&P for a very H&H 9mos!!!
Btw: No worries I will be considered AMA as well and I feel it means absolutely nothing

chaysefaith · May 2014

Yeah, nothing to show in pics, that I can tell.

@ImJessesGirl‌ I like hoar myself around to all brands. I've used the .88 cent Walmart cheapies, wondfo, Walmart's Answer brand, and FRER.

smg2302 · May 2014

@sarahl77 congrats on the BFP!

@adoucette06 Cerulean reminds me of The Devil Wears Prada...anyone?

ImJessesGirl · May 2014

@adoucette06 I pronounce it Seh-roo-lean ... I think that's right. If it's wrong, I don't wanna be right. BTW, I am going to assume that's your last name (Doucette)... can I ask where you're from??? I'm from South Louisiana and that's a pretty common name in this area that I haven't seen elsewhere. If you don't want to tell me, that's fine too!

Irishcurls · May 2014

Congrats @sarahl77!!!!

chaysefaith · May 2014

@sugahcookie01‌ here's my BFNs. In person I can see where the line wants to be, but not in photos at. all.

ImJessesGirl · May 2014

@adoucette06 ok cool. There is a very heavy French population here in South Louisiana as well. I guess that's why there's the similarity!

@sugahcookie01 omg I am so confused. I had no idea who that person even was or what she had done. I've only been here since March...
ETA: I think some of the posts or whatever have been deleted...

chaysefaith · May 2014

sugahcookie01 said:
@SNLT1012 Yeah, I don't see anything Could be too early?

Yup. I'm definitely either pg or about to start my period. My BFP in October didn't come until the day I was supposed to get my period, so I'm still holding out hope, but I won't be surprised if AF shows.

[Deleted User] · May 2014

Holy crap! 50+ comments already? I don't know how I'm going to balance work AND catching up! lol

Hello Ladies

Cycle/Month: 6/15

CD/DPO: 19/3 - got my CH today!

Timing: -3 (yay -_-)

Testing Plans: I probably should wait out AF. I'll be out of state during testing time anyway.

Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks/Phantom Symptoms,Etc: Nope.

GTKY: If you were a crayon, what color would you be? Explain yo'self!

Purple.. because it's the color of royalty.. which I am, clearly

Irishcurls · May 2014

Super cliffsnotes: awhile ago there were 2 shitty posters who turned out to be the same person, lied and caused drama and said really really mean things (I was not around). Turns out, this person also created a third ("real") sn and tried to make right/stop being a huge jackwad but got found out and people were rightly upset and hurt and she has since been banned.

Robi1 · May 2014

Cycle/Month: 1/1

CD/DPO: 27/10

Timing: -1

Testing Plans: been testing randomly, all BFN, including today with FMU. Considering my LP is 11-12 days, I'm fairly confidant this is not our month. Excited to start peeing on OPKs soon though. I didn't realize how much I missed peeing on stuff.

Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks/Phantom Symptoms,Etc: meh

GTKY: If you were a crayon, what color would you be? Explain yo'self! Black. It's the best color.

Irishcurls · May 2014

sugahcookie01 said:

@IrishCurls THANK YOU. This makes much more sense!

Welcome! I'm missing a lot obviously, but yeah. Shit show.

zantster · May 2014

@ImJessesGirl Isn't it so frustrating when you have so much hope and then you get to the last few days of your LP and want to scream NOOOOO! at the BBT.

@rlpointer The same thing happens to me when I'm a couple days from AF. On the one hand it takes some of the edge off the disappointment if it pops up out the blue. But it's still difficult.

@SarahL77 FF VIP is awesome! I love scrolling through the charts. But I haven't done the charts like mine piece so I'll do that today. Thanks and Congrats!!

NoeliaV · May 2014

CD1 for me today, but FX for all those still waiting in the 2WW and big ol' congrats for the BFP ( @sarahl77 )! <:-P

zantster · May 2014

Cycle/Month: 5/5

CD/DPO: 22/9

Timing: O-3, O-2, O-1, O, O+1

Testing Plans: None unless AF doesn't show up this weekend

Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks/Phantom Symptoms,Etc: Right now my chart is pretty much following a similar path as last month so I'm not super optimistic to be honest. I wish I could be more positive. But it's hard.

GTKY: If you were a crayon, what color would you be? Explain yo'self! Blue!! It's my favorite color. It's my birthstone color. Go September babies! And it's the color in my ring which is sapphire and diamond. Me and DH got married in September as well with blue and gold for our wedding colors.

ava826 · May 2014

Congrats @SarahL77 !
