What are you doing to get pregnant? PNV, BBT, OPKs, raspberry leaf tea, keeping stress down
Rant/rave/chart stalk? Nope- still have like two weeks before I O so all is calm.
GTKY: What do you have planned for your Friday night? Dinner with the hubby and then driving to pick up our friend (about an hour away) who is going to stay with us for the weekend. I won't be driving so I may indulge in some wine both before and after the drive.

What are you doing to get pregnant? Sex, BBT, OPKs, CM, PNVs
Rant/rave/chart stalk? I think I finally got a temp rise after 4 days of positive OPKs! If I put in a dummy temp for tomorrow, I get crosshairs for Wednesday at CD26. So FX I keep up a temp tomorrow!
GTKY: What do you have planned for your Friday night?
Do laundry, watch Netflix.
CD: 4
What are you doing to get pregnant?: Temping, opk's, going to start back up with Pom, green tea and I would love to try to have sex ED during FW
Rant/rave/chart stalk? no too early.
GTKY: What do you have planned for your Friday night? Just hanging out with my H. We are taking our son to the zoo this afternoon so I am sure we will be wiped out afterwards
Cycle/Month: 3/4

What are you doing to get pregnant? PNV and BBT. Will do OPK and ED sex sometime next week.
Rant/rave/chart stalk? Just waiting to O. I have longer cycles so it'll be a little bit.
GTKY: What do you have planned for your Friday night? Absolutely nothing and I am so excited. We are always on the go so it will be nice to stay home and relax!

What are you doing to get pregnant?: waiting for shark week to be over.
Rants/raves/chartstalks: I am SO VERY TIRED. DHs PTSD was on overdrive last night. I woke up at 2 and he was asleep on the couch with no memory of how he got there. When his alarm went off at 4 (ugh) he couldn't find his glasses, because he carried them into the office and set them down on the desk during his nighttime wandering. I had to get up and find them for him. My temp for today is worthless and I want to go back to bed.
GTKY: Hopefully I can go to bed crazy early tonight. Tomorrow afternoon we're going to a barbecue at a crocodile reserve. After dinner the owners will take us out to find crocodiles so we can see their eyes glow in the flashlights. It should be a unique experience.
ETA: Stay safe, @littleliverpill !

@littleliverpill - stay safe and keep all of your newly-delivered treasures safe as well!!
@Jags8 - FX for crosshairs!
In other news, home inspection went pretty well. The reality of having significantly less money to save every month and costs of home ownership are weighing on me!
Cycle/Month: 1/2

What are you doing to get pregnant? ED sex through weekend/Monday, Preseed, PNVs, OPKs x2, temping, charting.
Rant/rave/chart stalk: well, this will go down in history as my longest cycle ever. I have been having mild cramping since Tuesday and felt as if I was either pregnant (suspected 8-9dpo from last almost-+ OPK) or getting my period or going to ovulate. Well, OPK last night at 11pm was a full-on + and this morning as well. DH and I hadn't had sex since last Friday (thinking I O'd last week and wouldn't possibly O this late..) so when he got home from an awful workday at 2am, he was under strict instructions to wake me for middle-of-the-night sex. He did and he did it with bells on despite having been awake for 18+ hours. So, we plan to sex this evening, tomorrow morning (maybe night as well) and Sunday and Monday and im going to hope FF shows me O'ing...hopefully on Saturday. So, lesson reaffirmed that EOD sex must be maintained. Stupid me had EWCM since Tuesday so I should have relied on that as it's pretty reliable for me.
Anyways: sex at 3am on (technically) Friday morning - should I consider it Thursday PM sex or Friday AM sex on FF? I really don't want to have sex 2x/day but we may find ourselves there to maximize this timing.
GTKY: I hope tonight we sex and watch more Breaking Bad on netflix. And wine, wine to celebrate our house! We have a super busy August so I'm happy to lie low now!

What are you doing to get pregnant? BBT, OPK, PNV, and wanted to get in EOD sex, but we haven't had sex since Tuesday :-(. Last month, I O'd on CD20, so we still have time, but I'm disappointed
Rant/rave/chart stalk? Last month, I had a very nice/consistent fade-in pattern, but so far this month, I've only had two very light (still negative) OPKs. Hoping today's is darker. I've had small amounts of EWCM since Monday, so I feel like O has to be coming soon. Oh, and temping is really difficult while I'm off work all summer (not complaining about not working though!). My temps are all over the place bc of varying wake up times.
GTKY: What do you have planned for your Friday night? I'm hoping sex as soon as MH gets home from work. We have a party to go to tonight, and sex AFTER will likely only result in a homerun for me :-)

What are you doing to get pregnant? Temping, CM checks, PNV, sex, CBEF monitor, OPKs just in case
Rant/rave/chart stalk? I had a pretty high temp today but the room was warmer than normal. Also breaking in the new monitor and it thinks I have highs yesterday and today which I do not. I won’t O more than luckily until at least CD 16 so this monitor thing could be a bust.
GTKY: What do you have planned for your Friday night? We sold our house and finally have the money in the bank so we are paying off all of our debt! Yep super cool Friday night for nerds!
FX for you @jags8
Stay safe @littleliverpill. I would be freaking out!!!
@3houlagirl-sorry H is struggling right now. PTSD is no joke and I hope it is short lived for you guys. Also your weekend sounds amazing!
@Budders12-my charts tend to no have similarities until after O. Pre-O I feel like it is a crap shoot.
@wine&cupcakes- Impressive for 3am sex! I would call it Thursday since I usually go by anything that happens before I am up for the day as the night before except AF, when it comes I mark that day.

What are you doing to get pregnant? nothing yet
Rant/rave/chart stalk? My husband usually asks what my temperature is in the morning when he hears the beep, even though technically I would say he is still asleep. When I tell him, he usually follows up with something like, "I think that is really wonderful." I like the encouragement
GTKY: What do you have planned for your Friday night? Family time with the in-laws I think.
@swivelchair5 - haha! How sweet with the encouragement!

What are you doing to get pregnant? PNVs, temping, OPKs, and CM check.
Rant/rave/chart stalk? Pretty big temp spike this morning. I REALLY hope this is not meaning O yesterday. I had two neg OPKs the last two days and if I Od on CD 8, my range of O is pretty big... I'm crossing my fingers on it just being stress, crying, and poor sleep
GTKY: What do you have planned for your Friday night?
Nothing. Hoping MH can get home at a decent hour and just hang out. He's been so stressed too.

@Jags8 FX for high temps continuing!
@littleliverpill that sounds super scary! Stay safe!!
@PinkRoses53 the zoo sounds like fun
@booklover811 sounds like a great BFF weekend!
@3houlagirl sorry to hear about your H's PTSD. Hope your plans tonight are as fun and interesting as they sound
@KateRN08 FX for Oing early and working out like it did last time.
@ashleyinva sorry about your migraine
@wine&cupcakes 3am wake up call sounds impressive!
@linny1012 so sorry about the insurance issues and the horrible news about your childhood friend
@saltbox40 I tend to drink a lot of water and I'm still able to get + OPKs each cycle. I do them first thing in the AM and when I get home from work around 5:30p.
@SwivelChair5 your H's sleepy encouragement is cute!
@Iubire135 the best feeling is right after AF is over and no more pads/tampons and they can go back under the sink! Lol

@saltbox40 I've definitely noticed when i do OPKs twice a day that the one i do in the AM is usually darker than the one in the PM. I had been doing them before i go to work in the morning and right when i get home. I drink water all day long at work. So yesterday i waited until a few hours after I'd been home from work to do my evening test, and it looked exactly like the morning one. Have you tried testing at different times of the day? Urine concentration could be an issue, but you could also have a short surge that you're just not catching.
CD: 20
What are you doing to get pregnant? all of it, basically.
Rant/rave/chart stalk? I'm about 95% sure I O'ed overnight last night. I had +OPKs at 7am and 7pm yesterday and i had a .4 degree temp jump this morning, accompanied by a -OPK (still a decently dark line but definitely not positive anymore). I also had a weird pang of unplesantness in the left ovarian region around 9pm last night (but that's probably insane and based solely on my expectation of ovulation...it was most likely gas or something). Unfortunately, H had a migrane last night so we didn't have sex. But we did on Wednesday night and Monday night (-1 and -3), so i should at least have a horse in the race this cycle.
GTKY: What do you have planned for your Friday night? The usual...which is lay our butts on the couch, grill up some dinner, and watch TV. Maybe split a bottle of wine if H's headache is gone. We're super exciting.
CD: 1
What are you doing to get pregnant? OPKs, pre-seed, sex.
Rant/rave/chart stalk? Nothing.
GTKY: What do you have planned for your Friday night? DH is finally going to be home! Making meatloaf, doing a grocery list, shaving my legs and pits (after a week alone with a toddler), snuggling on the couch.
CD: 15
What are you doing to get pregnant?
BBT, CM, OPK, H2O, PNV, HIO ED
Rant/rave/chart stalk? Got a positive OPK today! We've been HIO ED, so I'm hoping I O soon. I'm tired!
GTKY: What do you have planned for your Friday night? Probably finishing up a few embroidery orders, so I can start making stuff for DS2's 3rd bday.

What are you doing to get pregnant?

CD: 17
What are you doing to get pregnant? Sex, temping. No OPKs this month
Rant/rave/chart stalk? I think I O'ed two days ago and am hoping for my crosshairs tomorrow. That would give us timing of -2.
So remember my complaints about no sex? We've had sex 4x in the last week. He's only been able to finish once and the other times lasted FOREVER. Be careful what you wish for! Hahaha.
GTKY: What do you have planned for your Friday night? Not sure yet! It's raining.
Cycle/Month: 3/3

What are you doing to get pregnant? Charting temp and CM, sex
Rant/rave/chart stalk? I think I O'd yesterday, just waiting for the continued rise. I'm not crampy, temp went up, just not a spike. But I don't even know what time it was, since I took my temp when my kid woke us up in the middle of the night. So maybe it would have been higher if I temped at regular time? We'll find out tomorrow.
GTKY: What do you have planned for your Friday night? I got a bottle of wine this week as a reward for a good job done at work, so DH and I will probably open that and watch last week's True Blood after the kid goes to sleep.
CD: 53 (or as I say fifty fucking three)
What are you doing to get pregnant? Charting, temping, OPK (all have been negative or faint lines), guessing. Oh, and having sex, not a lot, but some.
Rant/rave/chart stalk? Someone else said they wish they could text their body to ask what's up, I am SO on board with that idea. I am trying not to yell at mine, just waiting until i see my doctor on the 28th to see what she has to say.
GTKY: What do you have planned for your Friday night? Walk the dog, grill some "Juicy Lucy" burgers then relaxing with my hubby, I'm sure we'll watch something incredibly exciting on our DVR like Pitbulls and Parolees or Modern Family. Getting into the weekend mindset of being happy, calm and grateful for our lives.

lovegrilledcheese good call on getting a second opinion. I would be extremely dubious of an OB whose initial reaction to your pain is "you should take clomid." Clomid (a) isn't going to stop your pain and (b) needs to be taken with the supervision of an RE. It is not to be trifled with; it could negatively affect your ability to concieve in the future if you wanted a second child.
Also, if you go to a doctor about pain, they should try to find a solution to your pain instead of suggesting drugs that will make you ovulate when you appear to be already ovulating on your own. WTF.
