Re: WTO Tuesday!!
CD: 7
What are you doing to get pregnant?: waiting
Rants/raves/chartstalks: so my chart and graph are predicting 2 different FW. I hope my chart is more accurate because the week my graph is predicting I will be out of state.
GTKY: If you could be on a TV show which one would it be? I would be on Hells Kitchen! I love cooking and I've watched that show since season 1!
CD: 15
What are you doing to get pregnant?: temping, opk's, pom, pnv,sex eod...the usual ttc stuff
Rants/raves/chartstalks: Last cycle I o'ed on CD15 which is really early for me so of course today I am all impatient! In reality, I have another week to go. Stupid wacky cycles.
GTKY: If you could be on a TV show which one would it be? Hmm...The Layover. I want to get paid to eat and drink in cities around the world!
CD: 7
What are you doing to get pregnant?: temping, cm, water pom juice and green tea because...well.. Why not?
Rants/raves/chartstalks: nothing to report! Hoping I O when expected so we can have lots of vacation sex!
GTKY: If you could be on a TV show which one would it be? I would be in Downton Abbey! I would walk around all fancy with gloves on. Love that show.
Thanks for starting @MiraK03.
Cycle/month:1
CD:15
What are you doing to get pregnant?: Green tea, pnv's, temping, OPK's
Rants/raves/chartstalks: I suspect I might move over to TWW tomorrow if I get another high temp. My chart is still confusing me slightly, but if I get another high temp I get dashed CH for CD13. Based on CM and CP that has changed, this could be right.
Frustrated that I didn't get a + OPK this month. Same packaging but new brand inside. Can't help but wonder if it might be the tests or me that is defective this month
GTKY: If you could be on a TV show which one would it be? I would love to be on Masterchef! Not that I'm that good a cook, but I think I would learn a lot.
Proudly on the dark side
CD:8
What are you doing to get pregnant?: pnv, temping
Rants/raves/chartstalks:not much today, chart is looking good so far, just waiting on O
GTKY: If you could be on a TV show which one would it be? Great Hotels with Samantha Brown. One of my favorite parts of travel is staying in fancy hotels!
CD: 10
What are you doing to get pregnant?: Starting EOD sex today! OPKs, temping, CM
Rants/raves/chartstalks: if it doesn't happen this cycle, I think we might take a few months break from TTC. I'm glad I found this board and started doing all the things but it's also made it that much more stressful. H and I have been on edge lately. We need a Vacay.
GTKY: If you could be on a TV show which one would it be? If I knew I wouldn't be killed off, can I play Darryl's love interest on TWD?
CD: 21
What are you doing to get pregnant?: BBT, OPKs, CM, PNVs, sex, raspberry leaf
Rants/raves/chartstalks: I think I O'd last night (pains on my side for hours last night) but my temp wasn't up this morning. All other signs also indicated O was coming. I am wondering if O-ing in the evening last night was too late for my temp to rise this AM? I guess I will have to see tomorrow.
GTKY: If you could be on a TV show which one would it be? I would like to be a judge on a food network show- probably Iron Chef would have the best food. Yum.
@MiraK03 Thanks for starting!
@goldenlove3 Boo for CD 1
@7DeadlyZins FX you O'd!
Cycle/month: 2/3
CD: 14
What are you doing to get pregnant?: temping, cm, cp, opks, epo, etc.
Rants/raves/chartstalks: I have watery cm today. This would be awesome, except I have no other signs of O, and last cycle I geared up FOUR TIMES before I actually O'd, and watery cm was present every time. Ugh.
GTKY: Another vote for Downton Abbey. I am a historical costume nerd, and their costumers are amazing. I'd love to wear all the dresses.
My Chart
CD: 17 (I'll spend one more day here)
What are you doing to get pregnant?: sex and charting
Rants/raves/chartstalks: I'm getting new house siding today! Goodbye ugly oxidized white aluminum siding, hello pretty tan vinyl.
GTKY: If you could be on a TV show which one would it be? Fictional: Supernatural Love me some Jensen Ackles Reality: Big Brother because I think I can harness my emotions pretty well and I am a physical competitor.
Cycle/month: 2
CD: 12
What are you doing to get pregnant?: Starting ED sex today, if DH can stand it. All the other things, too.
Rants/raves/chartstalks: Keep confusing DH's semen for my CF. Absorbs in toilet paper, his. This isn't rocket science.
GTKY: If you could be on a TV show which one would it be? @itshumpday, while I do LOVE Downton, I would love to be on Parenthood. Love how close the 4 siblings are, and what a tight knit family they are. Also, living in Berkeley sounds amazing.
CD: 20
What are you doing to get pregnant?: lots of sex!, temping, pnv, baby aspirin
Rants/raves/chartstalks: I had a huge temp drop this morning, a full degree. Not sure why, I did temp earlier than usual because i woke up randomly but my temps aren't typically affected by time. We finished painting the bedroom last night, so that's a good thing!
GTKY: If you could be on a TV show which one would it be? Probably Grey's Anatomy because I love every single character.
Hopeful all are succesful this month, hats off to those going ED!
@goldenlove3 sorry for d1... drink as needed
Cycle/month: 4/4
CD: 5
What are you doing to get pregnant?: nothing yet
Rants/raves/chartstalks: nope
GTKY: If you could be on a TV show which one would it be? House Crashers or Kitchen Renovation or Bath Crashers or Backyard Crashers... can you tell I'd love some renovation work done?
CD:7
What are you doing to get pregnant?: medicated IUI#2 with clomid and Ovidril.
Rants/raves/chartstalks: nothing other than my next ultrasound is Saturday and this week is going by incredibly slow...and DH and i drank way to much wine last night and jacked my temp up! I suck at charting!
GTKY: If you could be on a TV show which one would it be? Definitely one the Housewives show! My friends and I definitely need a show!
CD:9
What are you doing to get pregnant?:
Waiting
Rants/raves/chartstalks: so I was reading an article called "the most common mistakes couples make while TTC" and was surprised that this doctor asserts that everyday sex during FW negatively impacts sperm production. That's what my DH and I have been doing for two months! How can there be such a thing as too much sex when TTC?! I feel like the more I read, the less I feel confident that this is going to happen soon. I find a lot of conflicting advice.
GTKY: If you could be on a TV show which one would it be? Ooooo, I'd love to be on call the midwife. I love the idea of catching babies in post WW2 London. Is that weird?
CD:6
What are you doing to get pregnant?:charting, opks
Rants/raves/chartstalks: none yet
GTKY: If you could be on a TV show which one would it be?I love lucy
DD#1 born June '09
DD#2 born April '11

My Chart
@goldenlove3- So sorry for CD1!
Cycle/month: 2
CD: 17
What are you doing to get pregnant?: temping, PNV, sexing, OPK's
Rants/raves/chartstalks: Yesterday was the first time I've seen a slightly darker OPK line but i wasn't sure if it was as dark. Took another in the evening and it was about the same, did another this morning and it was super dark compared to the control line so I'm excited about that!
GTKY: If you could be on a TV show which one would it be? Hmmm I'll say The Walking Dead just because I wanted to kick some ass.
TTC #1: June 2014
BFP: 09/07/2014 EDD: May 18th, 2015
Me: 27 DH: 30
Married: August 31, 2012
CD: 9
What are you doing to get pregnant?: Starting EOD tomorrow, PNV, BBT
Rants/raves/chartstalks: My temp is back to normal today, which makes me happy.
GTKY: If you could be on a TV show which one would it be? Probably a home renovation show. We don't watch much TV, just Netflix movies on our Roku.
@mamablue85 I'm certainly not a dr but I think unless you have KNOWN sperm count/mobility, etc issues that is bull! Every day is the best.
@ttcminicofer slow down Nelly! You aren't out bc your temps are off, you are just not seeing a shift yet.
@allisong87 Hop on it lady! The elusive noticably dark opk is great!
@lubrie135 are you now having your first pp cycle? I'm confused by what you stated. My first pp cycle was full of spotting, it just takes a while for all hormones to level out and do their do
PS now I feel guilty for skipping the gym today...
My Chart
CD: 2
What are you doing to get pregnant?: waiting
Rants/raves/chartstalks: I'm enjoying a break from temping during shark week. I'll start OPKs in about a week.
GTKY: If you could be on a TV show which one would it be? Wheel of Fortune
Cycle/Month: 2
CD: 4
What are you doing to get pregnant? SMEP, Temping, OPKs, CBFM, fertility smoothie
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: Read up about the liklihood of Endometriosis in sisters and it stressed me out a lot. My sister had stage 3 and difficulty with IF. I know its early on to say that but I am preparing myself for a Lap if nothing happens in the next year. Also, I know that it is generally 12 months of trying before a RE is involved but is that consecutive? OR if we tried for 7 months and then this round 5?
GTKY: If you could be on a TV show which one would it be? Sons of Anarchy (just so I could stare googly eyed at Jax and for no other reason) to be a character I would choose the Ladies of London.

My Ovulation Chart
@ttcminicofer I understand now! Guess I should drink more caffeine prior to posting! Here's to hoping you o when your dh is around... I get the frustration over shitty timing believe me! The last 2 cycles my dh was not up to performance needs during fertile days!
CD: 20
What are you doing to get pregnant?: Monitored Clomid, BBT and CM (though I suck at analyzing it), OPKs, sex ED/EOD (as much as DH lets me)
Rants/raves/chartstalks: I got out of the habit taking bbt during our vacation which jacked up my chart. I've been using Clear Blue Ovulation Tests and they have said I've been at High Fertility since CD 12 and still say it. I finally read the fine print on the OPKs and they aren't going to be accurate 1) I have PCOS and 2) I took clomid... Sucky.
GTKY: If you could be on a TV show which one would it be?
CD:5
What are you doing to get pregnant?: Ripping out the IUD and getting dirty. No charting just yet.
Rants/raves/chartstalks: nothing ttc related but what does chalkstalk mean? Also a rant about my account name. I wish I could change it! I've had it since 2007 when I was on the knot and now it's just so douchey. Blah
GTKY: If you could be on a TV show which one would it be? The biggest loser bc I need Jillian to yell at me to get off my ass.
@MiraK03 ~ Hope your FW works out the be the better one!
@PinkRoses53 ~ Sorry your cycles are wacky. FX you O soon
@itshumpday ~ Vacation during FW is awesome! Have fun!
@goldenlove3 ~ Sorry for CD1
@FJM85 ~ Calling yourself defective just gave me the sads.
@babynica ~ Sorry TTC has you down. FX for you
@7DeadlyZins ~ FX you get to move to TWW soon
@3houlagirl ~ FX your cycle is more straightforward for you this time and you O soon
@DawnLilly ~ Yay for new siding. Also, if you think you could do BB, I think you are pretty awesome
@holly628 ~ I love Parenthood! Good pick
@mrsbuck ~ FX that is your O dip
@kelley72 ~ FX you can move in to the “doing stuff” phase soon!
@physiomeg1623 ~ I love your siggy gif
@jennycam ~ Hoping this week goes by quicker for you
@meg_2006 ~ Yay for a new couch! We almost bought one this weekend and now I am mad we didn’t
@mamablue85 ~ From what I understand, there is mixed info out there about ED vs. EOD sex. Most recently I read that it is the same amount of sperm either way, and that EOD only saves it up for another day. I like to think of it as cleaning out the lint in the dryer vent. Whether you clean it out every day, or every other day, the amount of lint will be the same.
@ashleyinva ~ How long have you had your current shoes? Do you have inserts? Get off the treadmill and go outside lady. It is way better of a workout. Although I do try to avoid pavement running when possible, because it can cause issues. I do trail/fire road runs.
@ttcminicofer ~ Don’t count yourself out yet
@lubire135 ~ From what I hear, weaning can make your hormones go wonky. I wouldn’t worry about it. Just give your body some time to regulate.
@allisong1187 ~ Sounds like you are on the right track and you will be headed to TWW soon
@AnaTTCat32 ~ Hopefully those OPKs start turning for you soon
@kdE2010 ~ Glad your temp is back to normal
@PenguinMG ~ I am sorry this cycle is frustrating for you. FX!!
@pmreed79 ~ Sorry to see you over here. FX this is your cycle
@K8lynjune ~ I know it is easier said than done, but try not to stress yourself out about stuff that you don’t know for sure are an issue. Just because it happened to your sister does not mean it will happen to you too. FX for you
@osesecret ~ That 70s show would be a good one too!
@rachelleck ~ You are right. Meredith DOES need a new person
@booklover811 ~ I would probably use the first one, but make a note of the second one in case you look back later and it makes more sense to use it.
@SurfBabe900 ~ If you log in to the knot, you can change your name J
Cycle/month: 4
CD: 3
What are you doing to get pregnant?: Nothing fun yet -still waiting out AF. I did start drinking my POM juice last night, continuing with the PNVs and of course, temping/charting. OPKs will start soon. Going to shoot for ED sex this time (hopefully DH won’t be out of town during part of FW again).
Rants/raves/chartstalks: Just ready to get to the part of this where I can actually do something again.
GTKY: If you could be on a TV show which one would it be? As much as I want to say The Amazing Race, they sometimes have to eat weird stuff and I just couldn’t handle that. I am going to go with Grey’s Anatomy.
Me: 25, DH: 28, Baby #1 Due: April 30, 2015
Team BLUE!!
@mrsberg9282013 You deserve a pat on the back for that effort! Hats off also for ED! Best wishes!
CD: 4
What are you doing to get pregnant?: Waiting for AF to end.
Rants/raves/chartstalks: Eh....just happy to be home during this next cycle so that we have a better chance of good timing.
GTKY: If you could be on a TV show which one would it be? I would have loved to be a part of That 70's Show. As far as current shows....maybe Big Bang Theory or one of the many sci-fi based shows (crazy costumes/hair/makeup would be cool).
CD: 4
What are you doing to get pregnant?: waiting, PNV, BBT
Rants/raves/chartstalks: Cramps suck, that is all.
GTKY: If you could be on a TV show which one would it be? Switched at Birth, probably. I'd love to have a group of friends near my age that I could sign with.
