What are you doing to get KTFU? PNV, Temping/Charting, trying to keep up with sex
Rants/Raves/Symptoms : Temp spike this morning with no positive OPK this month. The last few months I have turned a digi but not a wondfo (always close but not a true positive). Definitely had EWCM for the last three days but I am not sure how concerned I should be with the OPK? Tested twice a day so not to miss a surge.
GTKY: What is the last picture you took on your phone? I took a picture of some salted caramel apple pie bars I made. I have a really irritating habit of taking too many pics of food.

What are you doing to get KTFU? temping, OPK, trying to be functional and not feel like crap
Rants/Raves/Symptoms : I can not wait to see my rheumatologist and get this shit sorted- I went to yoga today and couldn't do half the poses then when I got home I left the car running with the keys in it on the street.... only realized when I couldn't unlock the door. If I get pregnancy brain on top of this I will need to live in a bubble!

GTKY: What's the last picture you took on your phone? (Or with a camera if you don't have a camera phone). A picture of some adorable kids. I was babysitting for one or my close friends.

What are you doing to get KTFU? Not a whole lot right now. Pretty much writing this cycle off as a bust.
Rants/Raves/Symptoms : no clue as to if/when I O, so I'm just gonna hang out here a couple more days of that's ok?
GTKY: What's the last picture you took on your phone? (Or with a camera if you don't have a camera phone).
My new Keurig with the carafe so I can make all the coffee, H bought it for me yesterday because I'm sick and miserable/spoiled. Also I had the original keurig, like very first one ever that was almost 7 years old. It's still chugging along, but it's on its last leg for sure.

What are you doing to get KTFU? chart temp, cp/cf which means nothing if there is no Sex... maybe tongiht
Rants/Raves/Symptoms : ok, so random cycles occur and this is one, wouldn't you know the one cycle I decide to use opk's my ovulation is later than typical, so my first true positive this am! Hoping my dh is ready to screw tonight!
@trickyjedi The end of the first cycle trying was hard for me too. I knew going into it that it can take a while, but I was not prepared for my reaction. I don't know if it was because it was the first month or what, but I feel for you.
Cycle/month: 2

What are you doing to get KTFU? Getting better at temping (but probably not good enough for this cycle), PNV, CM, hoping to BD tonight, as it is 'date night' and 'hump day' and that it's good enough timing. Darn H's work deadlines
Rants/Raves/Symptoms: Nothing out of the ordinary
GTKY: What's the last picture you took on your phone? Spaghetti squash and salad dinner. I too take too many pictures of food @gypsymermaid.

What are you doing to get KTFU? Nothing much right now. I'm still at least 10 days out from ovulating.
Rants/Raves/Symptoms: I keep having sexy dreams about totally random guys, so I've been pretty randy in the morning, which is unusual for me. I have a pretty low libido. But I'm liking it! Also had a BFP dream two nights ago. Ugh.
CD: 16
What are you doing to get KTFU? Temping EOD ( we are going to ED) OPK CM
Rants/Raves/Symptoms : I got my first positive OPK this morning so we are really going to hump it out this hump day and maybe extend the holiday a few more days.
CD: 8
What are you doing to get KTFU? OPKs, EOD sex, prenatals, green tea, nothing out of the ordinary
Rants/Raves/Symptoms : Sitting in the ER yesterday morning with a few fainting spells, but they seem to think they are panic attacks (they aren't, but they snowed me with Ativan anyways). They kept asking "are you sure you're not pregnant?" No, Doctor. I'm an L&D nurse, I am actively trying, I got my period a week ago, but I have no idea what I'm talking about! UGH.

What are you doing to get KTFU? As of today, drowning my sorrows in all the carbs I can possibly shovel into my mouth. Aside from this, BBT, PNV, Vitex, green tea, water and eventually I will add OPK and AI into the mix.
Rants/Raves/Symptoms: Last cycle was the biggest mind fuck so far in our ttc journey. A stupid dog bite our puppy's ear last night at the dog park after she went for what I guess was his ball (he was no where near it), and actually pierced it. She's fine, but I'm a mess over it.

What are you doing to get KTFU? Nothing right now.
Rants/Raves/Symptoms: Same old AF complaints. Cramps, nausea. Also, DH and I got in a huge fight last night because I'm incapable of setting boundaries with work and have been deprioritizing my family for way too long in favor of a job that regularly makes me cry. The situation will be completely unmanageable with another baby and I need to get the balls to do something about it, but I'm scared of quitting and I'm scared of trying to find another job, even though DH is incredibly supportive of either option. I'm not good with change. Anyway, if you made it this far thanks for reading my dear diary post.
GTKY: What's the last picture you took on your phone? (Or with a camera if you don't have a camera phone). I've been trying to get a pic of the view outside my office window for @JustinsLovo's photo challenge! It's been raining here all week, though, so the skyline is all cloudy and gray.

Rants/Raves: see above and below.
GTKY: What's the last picture you took on your phone? (Or with a camera if you don't have a camera phone).
Ugh. A picture of my kitchen floor covered in dog shit when I got home from work last night. It's the only time out dog has ever done that and I know it was an accident but it was disgusting and the last thing I wanted to clean up.

What are you doing to get KTFU? All the things
Rants/Raves/Symptoms: I'm with the low libido ladies. DH has low libido too but it works for us. I'm in this marriage because I love him. Not just for sex lol. The whole trying to make a baby thing means we sometimes have forced sex which is not so fun.
GTKY: What's the last picture you took on your phone? (Or with a camera if you don't have a camera phone). The last "picture" I took on my phone was my new stove. We're renovating the kitchen one piece at a time and converted from an electric range to gas. I was pleasantly surprised when I cooked my first meal in the new range that it sings a song and flashes it lights when it preheats! The little things. But boo no videos allowed on mobile bump :-(

Plan to have sex as everyother day if we don't get too tired of it (Ya right hehe) also im thinking I might start checking my bbt because last month opk gave me a + but I'm not sure if it was completely accurate
Rants/Raves/Symptoms : started period last night at work.. And it's second one off BP so it's heavy and im super uncomfortable.. Luckily my scrubs were saved! Sorry for tmi
GTKY: What's the last picture you took on your phone? (Or with a camera if you don't have a camera phone).

What are you doing to get KTFU? temping, pnv, some sex
Rants/Raves/Symptoms : My temp jumped this morning so I'm hoping I O'd yesterday. It is significantly higher than the rest of my temps except for the mornings after all the booze. I am wondering how/if those high temps are going to affect FF giving me crosshairs. Anyone else have super high temps after drinking?
GTKY: What's the last picture you took on your phone? (Or with a camera if you don't have a camera phone). My dog. Always my dog.

What are you doing to get KTFU? All the things!
Rants/Raves/Symptoms : Today was the first morning I temped. I was so worried about not getting 3 straight hours of sleep or sleeping through my alarm that I kept waking up throughout the night/early morning.
GTKY: What's the last picture you took on your phone? (Or with a camera if you don't have a camera phone). My poor sweet Lily Belle with her cone of shame. I'm so happy she finally gets it off tomorrow! (Mobile bumping, sorry if the pic comes out sideways/huge/wonky)
Cycle/month: 1...just starting!
CD: 16
What are you doing to get KTFU?: sex every day! Lucky DH...also currently doing a doTERRA cleanse to clean out all the metals and toxins in my body from the birth control. Cleans out any bacteria in the uterus (fingers crossed)
Rants/Raves/Symptoms : I fully enjoy the BD...totally hating the walk to the bathroom and clean up (yuck sauce)
GTKY: What's the last picture you took on your phone? (Or with a camera if you don't have a camera phone).
A picture of my current oils I'm using in my water lol total Instagram pic haha
CD: 9
What are you doing to get KTFU? EOD sex, PNV, BBT, green tea, starting mucinex today
Rants/Raves/Symptoms : I have been away for a while- I had a health scare over the weekend. Spent all day in the ED on Sunday with unexplained pelvic pain with associated leg numbness. Follow outpatient apts on Monday. The good news is they couldn't find anything abnormal, but I am still having pain and numbness. Also, I switch back to working night shift tonight so my schedule is a bit off. Other than that, nothing related to ttc. Thanks for reading my rant.
Oh...and never tried anal so I couldn't contribute to that one lol
CD: 6
What are you doing to get KTFU? Trying to temp (if I can ever get the hang of it) and opks.
Rants/Raves/Symptoms : was out doing errands this am and didn't get to use an opk and I won't be home tomorrow morning either
GTKY: What's the last picture you took on your phone? (Or with a camera if you don't have a camera phone). A book cover so I can buy it for my eReader lol
CD: 6
What are you doing to get KTFU?: All the things... OPKs, EOD sex, charting/temping, going to start drinking pom juice today after I pick some up from the store.
Rants/Raves/Symptoms : Nothing much... Had a big temp spike yesterday but I'm thinking it had to do with the wine I drank. Which was a lot.
GTKY: What's the last picture you took on your phone? DH loves to force our little cat, Tori, to snuggle, mostly because she hates it. He had her pinned last night and was petting her so I got down on the floor and took a picture of her face, which was of her just barely tolerating DH's shenanigans. She can handle petting for about .3 seconds and then she's done.
CD: 16
What are you doing to get KTFU? The usual - PNV, pre-seed, temping, OPKs, sex
Rants/Raves/Symptoms : Looks like I might ovulate earlier this month than previous months (hoping today), which I am happy about! When my body used to like me, I ovulated on CD 16ish with a 13 day LP. The past 5 months have been O'ing on CD 20 with a 10 day LP with no luck getting BFP, so I'm hoping this cycle is a good one!
CD: 16
What are you doing to get KTFU? ED sex, PNVs, green tea, PreSeed, anxiously waiting for CH to magically appear on FF...
Rants/Raves/Symptoms : really hoping I get my BFP by the end of this year. We might be benched for 3-4 cycles in Jan-April due to DH attending training out of state. Then he is supposedly getting deployed next fall... Gotta love the military life!
GTKY: What's the last picture you took on your phone? (Or with a camera if you don't have a camera phone). A photo from when I was putting Icy Hot on my husband's lower back. He was convinced that I was drawing a penis with it (I wasn't... At least not this time). Lmao!
