Re: ~~TWW FRIDAY~~
CD/DPO: 25/10
Timing: -3, -2, -1
Testing plans: BFN this morning. BUT...I used a WalMart cheapie that said to read the test after 3 minutes. so I set my timer and looked then...stark white. I dumped my cup, and picked the test up to look again cause I was annoyed. If I looked closely and at an angle, there was maybe a line? When I first wake up my vision is blurry while my contacts settle, so I didn't trust myself to not be seeing something because I really wanted to. Also, at this point it was 5 minutes after starting the test, so maybe it was just an evap line. I have no idea. I thought about using a FRER for a second but 1)no FMU and 2)pretty sure this is in my head. When is the next testing group? Tuesday? That will be 14dpo for me so maybe I will test again then if no AF.
Rants/raves/symptoms: Oh, besides the 5 back to back dreams about BFPs that I had last night? (Where 2 lines popped up immediately each time) Nothing. Although the pain in my lower right abdomen has returned. Its been on and off for a week or so. Also, my bbt wouldn't clear yesterdays temp, so I'm not sure I trust the last couple of days of my chart now.
GTKY: Coffee of tea? Coffee in the morning, tea in the afternoon.
Cycle/month: 2/4
CD/DPO: 31/5
Timing: O-4, O (2×)
Testing plans: I've got a bunch of Wondfos that came with my opks, so maybe 10 DPO, just for kicks.
Rants/raves/symptoms: My temp dipped this morning. Not below coverline, but pretty far. At this point it's not implantation, so whatevs.
GTKY: Both. Coffee FTW in the morning, but tea at night. Unless we're talking Irish coffee; I'll drink that any time.
ETA: @redheaded14 Grab an FRER and test again! The suspense is killing me!
My Chart
Cycle/Month: 15
CD/DPO: 16/4
Timing: -6, -5, -3, -1
Testing Plans: none
R/R/CS: I can't think of anything TTC related, but I do know I have an awesome husband!
GTKY: both depending on mood. But I ALWAYS have coffee in the morning.
TTC Since 6/2013 Early Loss: 9/2013 MFI Diagnosis: 12/2014
CD/DPO: 26/11
Timing: good
Testing plans: don't know if I'll test again
Rants/raves/symptoms: the symptoms I had a few days ago seem to be gone. I thought I might test again this morning if my temp went up but it didn't. I don't want to be disappointed again. I had such high hopes for this month. Feeling pretty crappy now.
GTKY: Coffee of tea? Neither. Diet dr pepper for my caffeine.
Cycle/month: 3
CD/DPO: 25/9
Timing: EOD
Testing plans: I couldn't hold out and tested this morning, BFN! I mean what did I expect at 9 DPO?! but it still made me sad. Maybe I will test again Tuesday (when I should have tested w/ everyone else) if AF hasn't come
Rants/raves/symptoms: I have been very crampy, headache and a little bit of spotting yesterday. Most likely AF is on her way, but I am BSC and tested this morning....not sure why I did that to myself, not only did I waste a test, it made me sad. Guess I'm not out of the game until AF so I'll still hold on to hope!
GTKY: Coffee of tea? mmm Both! coffee is a hobby of ours. DH roasts his own beans (from green beans), grinds and brews through a variety of methods everyday. Nerd alert, I know! My favorite treat in the winter is a "London Fog"---early gray tea with steamed milk and vanilla. mmm
*I guess that's one good thing about my BFN...I can drink a ton of coffee today and not worry about it
Cycle/month: 14
CD/DPO: 21 / 8
Timing: High
Testing plans: Trying to hold out until Monday!
Rants/raves/symptoms: Boobs are still a bit tender but not much else going on.
GTKY: Coffee of tea? Coffee in the morning and tea later in the day.
redheaded14 and I’m sorry you also had a BFN this morning!
@ NeverTooManyShoes love the kiddie coffee!
CD/DPO: 7dpo
Timing: O day
Testing plans: Maybe 14 dpo
Rants/raves/symptoms: nope, no symptoms at all which is weird not even bloated early pms feelings
GTKY: Coffee of tea? Coffee all day everyday no matter what! I'll drink it black, sweetened with or without milk or cream...iced, hot anyway! I started to drink coffee-milk as my grandmother called it when I was about 8 or 9. It was milk warmed with coffee and a little sugar. It was a special treat she made just for me (none of my other cousins liked it). I have had a very long standing love for coffee.

BFP! 17 Aug 2014 | EDD 26 April 15
CD/DPO: 32/who the heck knows!! 17 if you go by my count.
Timing: ??????
Testing plans: No more testing. I have had 3 BFNs. My body hates me this month. I can't wait for cyle two to get going.
Rants/raves/symptoms: I have cramps from hell and no period to show for it. I am so sick of waiting for AF to show up!
GTKY: Coffee of tea? Tea - Iced and unsweetened, with extra lemon!
Cycle/month: 2/5
CD/DPO: 77/14
Timing: good
Testing plans: none. Was going to tomorrow, but temp dropped to cover line today so I'm out.
Rants/raves/symptoms: I was so hopeful... So I'm a little sad today. I'm really bummed that my cycles have kept getting longer... 35, 39, 55, 77. I hope that doesn't mean another three months til my next chance. I have an RE appointment next month. Hopefully that Dr can determine if this is "normal" post BC (been off for 10 months) adjustments, or if the strange hormone levels my OB found on bloodwork mean something else.
GTKY: Coffee of tea? Coffee with almond milk... Yum.
Sorry for any BFN's today. I hope to see at least one BFP in the group!
Cycle/month:6/5al
CD/DPO:21/9
Timing:" high" but maybe not high enough
Testing plans: BFN today
Rants/raves/symptoms: My temp went down a bit today and my face is breaking out like crazy. AF will prob be here on schedule.
GTKY: Coffee of tea? Definitely coffee. Yum, can't live without it.

Cycle/month: 1
CD/DPO: 19/5
Timing: good
Testing plans: thurs, if no af
Rants/raves/symptoms: woke up in the middle of the night last night thinking "omg! I forgot to temp!" Lol. I was delirious enough that I actually did, and then promptly fell back asleep. Some abdominal discomfort this morning... Probably just gas (tmi, sorry).
GTKY: Coffee coffee coffee coffee coffee coffee coffee forever!
CD/DPO: 32/7
Timing: -3, -1
Testing plans: I'll probably test tomorrow at 8dpo. I have no self control.
Rants/raves/symptoms: I still feel fullness/crampy in my abdomen and have a ton of cream CM (like I had with my last 2 bfp's). I also felt off with the way things tasted last night. However, Ive never really made a point to notice these things when I've gotten bfn's so it very well could be in my head. I just want this so badly!
GTKY: Coffee of tea? Coffee! Cutting down on coffee while ttc has been tough!
Cycle/month: 1/1
CD/DPO: 25/8
Timing: -3, -2, -1, O
Testing plans: trying to hold out until Tuesday which will be 12DPO
Rants/raves/symptoms: I'm having a moderate amount of right sided abdominal pain, which I'm sure I would pay no mind to at all if we weren't TTC. The closer the end of my LP comes, the more nervous I get convincing myself this wasn't our cycle.
On a positive note, I took my kids to Dunkin donuts this morning, so I'm sitting on the couch with 2 happy, frosting mouthed toddlers. Not a bad start to this Friday!
GTKY: Coffee of tea? Coffee is everything.
CD/DPO: 29/13
Timing: -2, -1
Testing plans: None.
Rants/raves/symptoms: Cramping now so just waiting for AF to start so could start cycle 3. Given DH's prostatitis, I'm already thinking about jumping to IUI at 6 months instead of waiting a year. I know we haven't been trying for long, but I'm just feeling really discouraged and that last month's CP was a fluke.
GTKY: Coffee of tea? Coffee in the morning, tea with lemon and honey later in the day. Unless I'm exhausted, then coffee at lunch/3 pm slump.
CD 76, 9 DPO
Timing: okay not great
Rants: took an HPT test this morning at urging of husband. It was negative. This was sobering because although I *know* 9 DPO is way too early, it's still a kick to the gut and reminds me that a week from now I could still have the negative test and be staring down another 80 day cycle. My next cycle could be shorter but short for me is 5-6 weeks so not much comfort there.
I'm not testing anymore. Not even tempted. Temp dropped .5 degrees this morning, and I'm just discouraged. I'll just wait for period due Thursday or test Friday or Saturday.
CD/DPO: 16/5
Timing: -3, -2, +5
Testing plans: at LEAST 10 DPO if I can't hold out until AF is due....
Rants/raves/symptoms: So I was at a friends house last night who just had a baby about a month ago. She is adorable. DH came over when he got done work and I fell in love with him all over again seeing him with this adorably baby girl. He went from big tough guy to all mushy. Talking to her in baby talk, holding her, feeding her, burping her. Sooooo baby fever. Yes. FX for this being the month
GTKY: Coffee of tea? Coffee -- although I gave it up. It has been a whole week since I had coffee.
Hysteroscopy 10/28/14 - septum removed
HSG 10/31/14 - All Clear!
CD/DPO: 21/9
Timing: good
Testing plans: 10DPO and every day after until AF rears her ugly head - I cannot hold out until 15DPO
Rants/raves/symptoms: slight tenderness in boobs, but otherwise nada today - starting to feel that I'm out for this cycle
GTKY: Coffee of tea? Coffee, but I am moving to the UK - I drink more tea when I'm there
Cd 26/ 8 dpo
Testing plans: none, though I did but some tests yesterday. I'm going to try to hold out to weds. Sigh! I O'd later this cycle so it's especially long
Symptoms: nothing really. Mild cramping on my right side.
Rants and raves: two of my friends just announced their pregnancies. Am genuinely happy for them but also green. Feeling bad about that.
I love coffee but I hardly drink it anymore due to bf. when I drink it it makes my toddler restless so I quit caffeine.
Sorry for BFns ladies. Fx someone gets a bfp soon!
Cycle/month: 3/3
CD/DPO: 15/1
Timing: -5,-4,-3,-2,-1
Testing plans: would love to hold out to DPO 12 - 14
Rants/raves/symptoms: DH and my 5 year wedding anniversary today. Looking forward to an evening out.
GTKY: Coffee of tea? Tea
CD/DPO 19/4
Testing plans- I'll start at 8dpo. That's what cheapie a are for
Symptoms- nothing to early
Rants, Raves, chartstalk - I lost my freaking bbt and couldn't temp this am. I need to go buy a new one tonight. Maybe not remembering shit is a pregnancy sign!
I hate coffee and tea!
BFP #1 Chemical Pregnancy
BFP #2 DS Bennett
BFP #3 Missed Miscarriage 8wks
BFP #4 Miscarriage 6 wks
BFP #5 Due August 10, 2015
@redheaded14 FX for you!
Cycle/month: 3AL/6 months total
CD/DPO: 36/10 or 12?
Timing: not good
Testing plans: none
Rants/raves/symptoms: The frustrating cycle never ends! I'm supposedly 12DPO today but I don't buy it. I've never ever had an LP longer than 10 ever. On CD23 and 24 I have very low temps and I believe that to be because we slept without our comforter those nights. If I take those temps out, my CHs move to CD 26 which would make me 10DPO with a period due tomorrow...I can't trust a 12 day LP so I think I'm going to believe that CD 26 is now my O day. I hate this cycle.
GTKY: Neither, I'll get my caffeine from something delicious like energy drinks or soda!

Cycle/month: 1
CD/DPO: 21/3
Timing: -3, -2
Testing plans: None yet, probably will cave next weekend
Rants/raves/symptoms: Going away for the weekend in a few hours! Can't wait!
GTKY: Coffee of tea? Must have at least one cup of coffee every morning.
@newbostonmomma that’s so cool that you roast your own beans! Sounds delish.
@kelly6892 I’m so sorry. I hope the RE can help you!
@holly628 I know they say to wait a year but I would talk to your OB. If there’s a known issue they will often refer to an RE early. I know several women younger than 35 whose OBs referred them at 6 months because of various extenuating factors (DH age, known endometriosis, etc)
@jmgbaby Happy Anniversary!
Cycle/month: 1/1
CD/DPO: 23/10
Timing: -4,-3,-1,O
Testing plans: I have 1 pregnancy test at home so now that I know about the Tuesday Team – I’m going to try to hold out. FX AF doesn’t show up before
Rants/raves/symptoms: Some spotting yesterday but nothing this morning. My temp has dipped so sure AF was on the way, but it came back up a bit this a.m. Now I’m wondering if the artic temperature in my MIL’s guest room is affecting my temp? Especially since I’m a mouth breather and temp orally.
GTKY: Coffee of tea? Tea is nice, but coffee is essential. Especially a tall starbucks latte with an extra shot. Mmmmmm.

CD/DPO: 27/8
Timing: -5, -4, -1, 0, +1, +2
Testing plans: So the crazy train rolled in today....but I just waived it on by. I didn't POAS (because I know at 8dpo that's just craziness) Yay for 8dpo self control! Tomorrow is a different story however. I would really like to make it at least 10 dpo (sunday).
Rants/raves/symptoms: Nothing really, just sore boobs and some cramping last night/this morning.
GTKY: Coffee of tea? I have 1 cup of coffee first thing in the mornign (cream, no sugar) and then a cup of tea. Any sort of caffeine after noon will keep me up all night!

CD/DPO: 16/3
Timing: Excellent
Testing plans: missed period, if I can wait
Rants/raves/symptoms: can't even think about TTC right now. My mom is going in for emergency shoulder surgery today. She lives across the country from me and it kills me that I can't be there with her. I am so worried about her but I keep trying to tell myself that she'll be ok.
GTKY: Coffee of tea? Coffee!!!! Especially Dunkin Donuts coffee. I rarely have it now since there are no DDs in California. But we do have Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf which is pretty damn good too.
CD/DPO:24/9piui
Timing:good
Testing plans: I believe I tested my trigger out today. Squintiest of lines today so hoping for darker ones soon!
Rants/raves/symptoms: time is dragging!
GTKY: Coffee of tea?coffee!
I know, you're right. It's just that looking at that blank screen is just such a throat punch. I'm going to just wait out until period is due.
@MrsC0617- sorry about your mom. My mom had a breast cancer scare earlier this year and it killed me I couldn't be there for any of her surgeries. Hope everything works out!
CD/DPO: 28/11
Timing: -4, -2, -1, 0, +1, +2
Testing plans: BFN this morning...will try again on Monday.
Rants/raves/symptoms: Cramping sensation for multiple days and some twinges going on in my abdomen. I have been so tired this last week too; I just cannot get enough sleep! Here's hoping it isn't AF!
GTKY: Coffee of tea? Tea (chai if possible!)
