Re: -*-W2O Sunday Edition-*-
CD: 1
What are you doing to get KU? Nothing yet
Rants/raves/chart stalk: nope
GTKY - Which family member (if any) do you most resemble? My mom. I am her spitting image. Even our voices sound alike.
Wtf is up with the app? It's trying to make me pick a birth month to be my home board. It must have updated in the middle of the night.
CD: 17
What are you doing to get KU?: sex, bbt, CM, PNVs, green tea
Rants/raves/chart stalk: I'm about to drive 2&1/2 hours to my friends's out of state bridal shower
GTKY - Which family member (if any) do you most resemble?: I've been told I look like a combination of my mother and my father but my facial expressions most closely resemble my mother.
Sorry @Bee1112 Cd 1 sucks.
Cycle/month: 2/4
CD: 19
What are you doing to get pregnant?: everything. I put EOD sex on hold since I am CLEARLY not ovulating yet, but still shooting for 3 times/week, just in case.
Rants/raves/chartstalks: I'm getting watery CM again. I'm hoping it switches to EWCM this time.
GTKY: Hands down I look like my mom. Except my hips. Those are from the sturdy Polish side of the family.
My Chart
CD: 14
What are you doing to get KU? Waiting for CHs, which I'll probably get tomorrow.
Rants/raves/chart stalk: I still can't believe I O'ed on CD12, but dummy tempts for tomorrow confirm it. At least we got a little sex it before it was too late.
GTKY - Which family member (if any) do you most resemble? Everyone thinks I look exactly like my mom... same curly hair and glasses.
What are you doing to get KU? All the usual things- temping, opk's, sex eod
Rants/raves/chart stalk: It looks like this is going to be another long cycle. I'm kinda pissed bc the 2 times I've gotten pregnant, it was always when I ovulated on day 14-15. In my head, I'm already out bc I am probably not going to O for another week.
GTKY - Which family member (if any) do you most resemble? My mom.
CD: 2
Pnv, opks, green tea, tracking cm, bbt
RRC: Just waiting for my period to end
GTKY: I look a lot like my Dad's sister. He has a picture of her in her early 20's and it's like looking in a mirror.
CD: 17
What are you doing to get KU? PNVs & folate. EOD sex (I'm not charting this month, so our plan is EOD sex from CD14-CD34. Not a foolproof plan, I know!). I have a shit ton of Wondfo OPKs, but I haven't started POAS yet, maybe today. I have an OB appointment on Tuesday, since this is our 12th month TTC, so we'll see how that goes.
Rants/raves/chart stalk: Nada
GTKY - Which family member (if any) do you most resemble? My aunt. We are TWINS (I'm even named after her, it's kinda weird)
CD: 13
What are you doing to get KU? mostly waiting on a +opk, but also EOD, pnv, temping
Rants/raves/chart stalk: i have consistently O'd between CD 12 and 15 (charting since January), so I'm surprised that sitting here at CD13 i still haven't seen a +opk. I read on another thread that some ladies show a darkening line leading up to a + test and some don't, and I'm thinking I will definitely be in the don't category.
GTKY - Which family member (if any) do you most resemble? Mom's eye shape, everything else comes from my dad's side of the family.
@YogiKC0519 that's a smart move. I hope it goes quickly!
Cycle/month: 4..5 maybe? I'm confusing myself
CD: 14
What are you doing to get KU? The usual stuff
Rants/raves/chart stalk: we started early this cycle since I've O'd on CD 13 and CD 12 the last two cycles... still waiting! My H is a champ though...he told me this morning that he feels really good about this cycle. FX
GTKY - I look just like my mom. I've looked at pictures of her from when she was my age and said 'I don't remember that'... Because it wasn't me! The scary thing is, DD looks just like me!
What Are Your Thoughts on Tap Dancing Penguins?
Cycle/month: 12/7
CD: 1
What are you doing to get KU? I AM BACK IN THIS MOTHER FUCKING GAME!
Rants/raves/chart stalk: After 11 cycles that were 10-14 days long, bleeding every other week because I'm a fucking idiot who used Depo twice, I THINK I JUST ENDED MY FIRST REGULAR CYCLE! It was 23 days long. I'm not sure if I ovulated because I stopped charting my temps but I'm feeling pretty good! Back to temping and pissing on sticks for this Bear!
GTKY - Which family member (if any) do you most resemble? My dad. Is actually scary how alike we are sometimes. I fucking love that man.
What Are Your Thoughts on Tap Dancing Penguins?
Cycle/Month: 15
CD: 4
What are you doing?: Temping and stuff
R/R/CS: nothing right now
GTKY: I'm a weird collage of many people. I've got my grandmother's complexion and nose, my dad's height and lips and hair, mom's hips, my aunt's tiny titties. In personality, I closest resemble my oldest brother even though we are 12 years apart in age.
TTC Since 6/2013 Early Loss: 9/2013 MFI Diagnosis: 12/2014
CD:12
What are you doing to get KU? Medicated IUI#2.
Rants/raves/chart stalk: I had a mid cycle ultrasound yesterday which showed two dominant follicles(16,15) on the right ovary(although my HSG said my left tube is probably clear my right tube was very clear), I had 2 other small follicles on my left(both 12's). My lining was at 9 and my blood work came back for my estrogen at 212 so I'm happy. I go in tomorrow for another follicle check and most likely trigger tomorrow night.
GTKY - Which family member (if any) do you most resemble? I don't look much like her now but I look a lot like my mom from her childhood pictures.
CD:12
What are you doing to get KU? Sex, temp, opk
Rants/raves/chart stalk:didn't get to take my temp this morning which sucks because I'm sure I'm about to O in the next few days. Just got my opks unpacked so I'll be using those today.
GTKY - Which family member (if any) do you most resemble? My mom. If you hold a picture of her when she was younger and a picture of a young me we look almost identical.
@Bee1112 sorry about cd1
@pippacricket hopefully you will have fun today
@YogiKC0519 good luck when you go start ttc
@3houlagirl sex three X week is still pretty good IMO. Good luck
@PinkRoses53 sorry about the long cycle
@swimmergurl1105 I think cd14 may be your O date
@LuluRM good luck at your appointment coming up
@SpartanChick88 good for your DH!
@DaBearsFansWife congrats on cd1 then!
@jennycam good luck tomorrow
Eta: apparently I need to check FF to remember my cd day
CD:17
What are you doing to get KU? just waiting for CH's.
Rants/raves/chart stalk: Hope I get two more high temps. Today is day drinking @ the Nautical Mile in Long Island for my friend's birthday. I should probably not have more than two drinks since hopefully I'll be in the 2WW in a few days. My friends definitely don't play around though.
GTKY - Which family member (if any) do you most resemble? My sister, and she's 14 years older than me. I don't see a resemblance really except we both have big cheeks.
@Bee1112 sorry about cd1
@pippacricket, you sound like a great friend! I know the drive sucks, but I'm sure you'll make your friend so happy to be there. Have fun!
@YogiKC0519, good luck when you start TTC in two weeks.
@3houlagirl, hope you get EWCM and O soon!
@PinkRoses53, sorry about the long cycle, but don't count yourself out yet!
@swimmergurl1105, looks like CD14 most likely is your O date.
@LuluRM, good luck at your appointment!
@SpartanChick88, glad DH is a good sport!
Cycle/month: 6
CD:19
What are you doing to get KU? Waiting for my CH tomorrow I put in a dummy temp to test for tomorrow just to see since this in my first month temping and I got the CH for CD 17
Rants/raves/chart stalk: I am going to relax today wash my hair and watch tv
GTKY - Which family member (if any) do you most resemble? I look like my mothers twin. Which is a good thing since she passed away three months ago RIP mommy!
I'm not doing anything special to get pregnant, since I'm reasonably sure I haven't ovulated and maybe won't anytime soon. I get the same kind of cramps for periods, ovulation, and pregnancy (at least I did last time) and I would take any one of the above, including my period, at this point. Alas, I've no signs of anything and my temps are very steady around 97 degrees, no spikes or drops. Sigh.
I am a pretty even combination of my parents.
CD: 27
What are you doing to get KU? bbt, eod sex maybe ed starting tomorrow, nettle leaf ice tea, prenatals, krill oil, probiotics, check cervical things, opk
Rants/raves/chart stalk: I just am starting to feel out of place here since it has been 27 days and will be at least a few more days according to my signs.
GTKY - Which family member (if any) do you most resemble? a combination of everyone in my family. I definitely have my grandmother's face shape and my dad's eyebrows but I look a lot like my mother too.
Make a pregnancy ticker
Cycle/month: 1
CD: 6
What are you doing to get KU? PNV, EPO, EOD sex, etc.
Rants/raves/chart stalk: last cycle I O'd on CD11, if that's the case this cycle I'll be O'ing during FI's bachelor party.....awesome. (Drunk sex is not good sex for us. More than two beers for him and we'll be having a flaccid Friday night.)
GTKY - Which family member (if any) do you most resemble? Definitely my mom! And my moms brother has a daughter who look exactly like me when I was four or five. Weird.

What are you doing to get KU? green tea, temping, PNV, preseed, waiting for wondfos to be delivered (they should be here wednesday!)
Rants/raves/chart stalk: why can I never get up on time on weekends? I woke up at 11 today (same as yesterday). I have to get up at 5 tomorrow so Monday is going to be super fun!
GTKY - Which family member (if any) do you most resemble? I am a spitting image of my dad both in looks and personality.
CD: 9
What are you doing to get KU? Temping, OPKs, sex, green tea, POM
Rants/raves/chart stalk: I had a temp spike this morning but I think it is from drinking last night, this would be crazy early ovulation for me.
GTKY - Which family member (if any) do you most resemble? If you look at baby pics, my brother and I look very similar. I'm a pretty equal combination of my parents though.
Cycle/month: 3/3
CD: 4
What are you doing to get KU? BBT, OPKs around CD14 (I O late), PNVs, just ordered preseed on Amazon, and I just started a B complex and also ordered Vitex. See below.
Rants/raves/chart stalk: I have had a 9 and 10 day LP since I started charting (this will be my 5th month off of BCPs). I'm trying supplements to see if I can extend my LP. Has anyone had success w the B complex or Vitex?
GTKY - Which family member (if any) do you most resemble? My parents say that my brother and I looked like the exact same baby when we were born (despite the obvious anatomical difference), and people do say that we look somewhat alike now. I don't think either of us truly looks like our parents, but I def act a lot like my mom (as tough as it is to admit!)
@DaBearsFansWife yay for CD1
Cycle/month: 4/6 AL
CD: 15
What are you doing to get KU? EOD sex, OPKs, CM, temping
Rants/raves/chart stalk: I finally got on my laptop and figured out my cycle/month thing and updated my siggy. I feel accomplished!
Also, I got a pretty dark OPK this morning, so ED sex will be starting soon.
GTKY - Which family member (if any) do you most resemble? My mom, fo sho
CD: 3
What are you doing to get KU? For now I'm waiting out AF. PNVs, temping, drinking more water
Rants/raves/chart stalk: Super heavy flow and bad cramps. Wishing I didn't have to work today so I could stay at home and drink all the wine in the house
GTKY - Which family member (if any) do you most resemble? I look and sound just like my mom.
@Bee1112 ~ Sorry for CD1
@pippacricket ~ Hope today turns out better than you anticipate. Creepy internet hugs being sent your way
@RinnyBee ~ FX you O soon. Sorry your temps are being off this time around
@3houlagirl ~ Hoping you O soon. Sorry your CM is being confusing
@kdE2010 ~ If you get your CHs tomorrow, GL in TWW. FX
@PinkRoses53 ~ Don’t count yourself out yet! Chin up
@Sillygirl85 ~ Sorry for CD2. That is always the worst one for me
@PenguinMG ~ I love your siggy challenge pic. That was my sister’s favorite cartoon when we were growing up
@AnnaTTCat32 ~ Yay for the +OPKs!
@swimmergurl1105 ~ I would think yesterday, unless you get a +OPK again today.
@osesecret ~ I am not sure why, but your “what are you doing” answer made me giggle. FX this is your cycle!
@LuluRM ~ GL at your appointment on Tuesday
@redheaded14 ~ FX you turn an OPK soon
@shmurrow06 ~ I had almost forgotten about “Hey Arnold!”
@SpartanChick88 ! FX YH’s intuition about this cycle is right!

@DarcyHermione ~ Take care of yourself and get some extra sleep in today
@jennycam ~ Glad things seem to be looking good from your appointment yesterday. FX!
@MiraK03 ~ FX you can still see a temp shift without todays temp
@holly628 ~ FX you get your CHs soon. And most of the ladies here follow the “drink ‘til it’s pink” policy. So enjoy your party
@thefrugalwife ~ FX you get your CHs soon. Enjoy your relaxing day today
@Catcherryesux ~ I could be wrong, but I am pretty sure the guideline is that if you reach day 60 with no AF and no positive pregnancy test, you should see your doctor to induce a period

@mrs2mommy92 ~ FX your timing works out well and Friday is not an issue

CD: 8
What are you doing to get KU? Temping, charting, PNV, OPKs, POM, really hoping to start having sex soon. Things just haven’t been working out in that category this week.
Rants/raves/chart stalk: Temp was super high today – but I think it was because I had to basically get up to get my thermometer that was on the nightstand at the foot of the bed. It was so high I discarded it.
**QUESTION** ~ I have been entertaining the idea of acupuncture for the last couple of days. Everything I have been reading though is mostly that people use it in conjunction with fertility treatments with an RE after they have hit that year mark. I am wondering if anyone here has tried, or known someone who has tried acupuncture before hitting that year mark? DH is all about it if it turns out to be something I want to do, but I am not sure if I am jumping the gun on this one.
GTKY - Which family member (if any) do you most resemble? My mom. In looks, mannerisms, everything. It is kinda creepy.
Me: 25, DH: 28, Baby #1 Due: April 30, 2015
Team BLUE!!
I have to wait 90 days. Maybe if I just randomly didn't have a period for 60 days after normal cycles, they would be concerned, but since this after coming off BC- they want me to wait 90 days before inducing a period.

CD: 17
What are you doing to get KU? Sex, OPKs, PNVs.
Rants/raves/chart stalk: Waiting for OPKs to turn feels like it takes forever. TMI, but... EWCM went crazy over-productive last night to the point that it felt like I was on my period. Holy crap on a cracker.
GTKY - Which family member (if any) do you most resemble? My mom. As in there've been some times that I've caught my reflection and thought it was her, then realized "she" was wearing my clothes.
CD: 3
What are you doing to get KU? Charting temps
Rants/raves/chart stalk: Nothing yet
GTKY - Which family member (if any) do you most resemble? I'm a mix. I have my mom's coloring and facial shape, but my dad's features (nose, ears, etc.)
Cd: 14 (t minus 48 hours to O)
What I'm doing: charting, cm checks, temping, opk, eod sex
Rants and races: right now I'm getting up with a toddler in the night and it's seriously screwing with my temps. Plus, I'm new to temping and I'm second guessing every temp anyway. To be honest, I e been fairly negligent in recording temps and I've promised by self in the event of bfn this month I will be better. My opk is flashing a smiley at me which lines up with my Chart, so I'm grateful for a regular cycle even if it's not the most accurate determination of O.
Who I look like: my mom. I know. Bor-ing.
