Re: ~*~2WW WEDNESDAY~*~
CD/DPO: 21/6
Timing: all the days
Testing Plans: holding out until 12 dpo. Or earlier. You know how it goes.
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: I'm starting to get anxious about the cycle. I just really really really want it to be this month. And I have zero symptoms so that's making me discouraged. My boobs were super sore yesterday and today nothing. Wtf. Temp is still climbing. Usually I started dropping on 8dpo so if it stays up I'll feel better.
GTKY - if nothing was holding you back, what is one skill you would want to learn? Photography. I've always wanted to take classes. It would be a great skill to have when we have kiddos. Until then I would just take pictures of my cats..
Also DH is hearing impaired. We have talked many times about taking sign language classes together but we never get around to it. We survive based on him reading lips and texting each other.
CD/DPO: 18/6
Timing: -5, O
Testing Plans: late AF. Me being out of town next week for work will help with will power
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: none
GTKY - if nothing was holding you back, what is one skill you would want to learn? Tough question....i would love to have the knowledge and skills to become a fantastic cook or chef. I'm seriously challenged in this area unless I have a recipe to follow and I follow it word for word. DH can just throw a bunch of things in a pot with no meal in mind and it tastes wonderful.
Month/Cycle: 3
CD/DPO: 17/4
Timing: great
Testing Plans: late next week maybe
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: nada
GTKY - if nothing was holding you back, what is one skill you would want to learn?
I would love to speak a couple other languages fluently. I took German for years and even lived abroad, and I just don't have an ear for languages. I would love to speak Italian, and Spanish would be helpful in my neighborhood also.
@mustloveerica Don't be discouraged by a lack of symptoms at 6 dpo! If the egg fertilized, it hasn't even implanted yet, or is just getting around to it today.

Testing Plans:
I tested this morning... BFN. Guess I'm out this month. Af will be making her appearance tomorrow.
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: I'm really upset that this month didn't go well for us. Next month, my dh will be away hunting for a week, and it is looking like he will be gone the full week leading up to O and not getting home until the day after O. I will still use OPK's to make sure, but it is looking like we won't be able to try again until December.
GTKY - if nothing was holding you back, what is one skill you would want to learn?

Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks:
Lots of symptoms, maybe all in my head, very bad heartburn before/after eating nausea in the morning and evening, irritable and lots of creamy cm. DH says nipples are darker but I'm not sure I agree!
GTKY - if nothing was holding you back, what is one skill you would want to learn?
Professional wedding planning! Maybe a maternity leave project?
CD/DPO: 14

GTKY - if nothing was holding you back, what is one skill you would want to learn? sign language, I am so impressed with those that know how to sign, I'd love to learn and use it professionally @mustloveerica Wow! I wrote mine out before reading others... it is an amazing skill/ language isn't it? ok it must be inspiring to a lot more people than I thought... @melco19
Also, I'm sorry for the loss of your mom. My mother passed away about seven years ago, so I know what you're going through. ((Hugs))
Month/Cycle:
CD/DPO: 38/16??
Timing: -3,-1,O
Testing Plans: So I caved yesterday afternoon and tested, and right at the 5 minute mark I saw a squinter. I tested again this morning with FMU (although I only slept about five hours) expecting/hoping to get a darker line, but it was the same kind of squinter, right at the 5 minute mark. I don't think it was an evap, but I'd also think the line would get darker. I'm using wondfos and I've heard good and bad around here about their HPTs, so I may or may not have saved my pee cup and plan to go grab a FRER.
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: Because of the above I think I either A) guessed my O date wrong, totally possible because I don't temp. Or
GTKY - if nothing was holding you back, what is one skill you would want to learn? I'd love to be a better cook, or learn to sew, but if I really didn't have to be practical? I'd like to take ballroom dance lessons. I was a dancer growing up, but LOVE watching the latin ballroom dances and would like to be able to do it.
ETA: I bought a digital and a FRER and turned them both! I'm seriously in shock!! Still feeling a little unsettled for some reason, but the digital is impossible to misread and there was no question about the FRER either. For the moment I'm KTFU!

CD/DPO: 30/11
Timing: -5, -4, -2, -1, O
Testing Plans: BFN this morning.
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: sore boobs, cramping, and the worst acne I've had in my life.
GTKY - if nothing was holding you back, what is one skill you would want to learn? I'd like to learn how to drive a manual transmission vehicle. My dad tried to teach me once, but it didn't quite "click" at the time, so I stuck with automatics.
CD/DPO: 23/5
Timing: -4 -3 -2 O
Testing Plans: 12DPO
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: I'm getting super antsy about testing. I'm normally fairly zen during the TWW, but because this might be our last chance til next spring, I'm super anxious.
GTKY - I want to learn how to poll dance. Like really frickin cool, acrobatic, athletic poll dancing.
CD/DPO: CD30/ 11DPO
Timing: I think good.
Testing Plans: Tested yesterday BFN. If no AF by Friday, test again.
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: I had spotting yesterday so I fully expected to wake up to my period this morning, my leutal phase is usually 11-12 days without meds but nothing. No symptoms either. Afraid I am going to have to jump start my period this time to get going on this next cycle which just sucks. Going to wait until after the weekend and confirmation from my doctor to take provera.
GTKY - if nothing was holding you back, what is one skill you would want to learn? Learn another language. I didn't take it seriously in high school but would love to be able to speak a different language now.

Testing Plans: 11/5 - 14dpo
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks:
Nada
GTKY - if nothing was holding you back, what is one skill you would want to learn? Photography. I was in a class when I was pregnant with my first but had to drop it because 1st Tri was a bitch.
Month/Cycle - 2/2
CD/ DPO - 32/13
Timing - Basically every other day.
Testing Plans - I've tested everyday since 9 DPO and all BFNs. I suspect AF's arrival is imminent.
Symptoms/ Rants/ Raves/ Chart Stalks - No symptoms. I am doing my best to stay positive about no being succesful this cycle, but its really getting me down.
GTKY - If nothing were holding you back, what is one skill you would learn? The ability to speak a couple foreign languages. I would love to be fluent in spanish, french, arabic and chinese. How awesome would that be!!
Month/Cycle: 6
CD/DPO: 29/??dpo
Timing: I thought terrible, we only had sex a few times since I had oral surgery and then was sick.
Testing Plans: expected to wake up to cd1 and nothing, so tested. Bfp on my cheapie! I'm literally in shock. Going to get a frer after work and then I'll really be ready to call it!
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: been having heartburn for about a week now, but chalked it up to eating really shitty foods. Could still be I guess lol
GTKY - if nothing was holding you back, what is one skill you would want to learn?
play an instrument. I'd love to be musically inclined!
Do not board the crazy train and remember, you're not out until af shows her whore face.
Sorry for the BFNs, ladies. I'm going to try and hold out on testing until AF is due as I find BFNs so demoralizing. They put me in a mood i can not shake sometimes.
CD:25/4 dpo
cycle: 5
Timing: Good! -5,-4,-2,-1 (X2), O, O+1
Testing Plans: None.
rants and raves: nothing much. DS is sick so we have had to cancel some Halloween plans which I was excited about. Oh well, what are you going to do? Kids get sick. On the plus side, I have been getting a lot of snuggles. Hopefully he feels better by Fri.
GTKY: play the guitar. I've always wanted to learn.
CD/DPO: 23
Timing: Covered our bases!
Testing Plans: Last night I squinted really hard and thought I saw the shadow a line, but we're going to go with BFN because I can't trust that at all. Bought more tests and I'm making myself wait until tomorrow night. And that's the last test I'll give myself before AF.
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: I'm annoyed with myself for breaking down and testing last night because I've been assuming that I'm not pg this whole 2WW and now in the 11th hour I'm like, "D'OH BOY! I MIGHT BE!" With absolutely no symptoms. Dumb.

Month/Cycle: 9
CD/DPO: 27/8
Timing: -5, -4
Testing Plans: None at the moment
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: FF is unsure if it wants to take my O day away. I'm not convinced I actually ovulated when it says I did.
GTKY: I'm going to agree with people above and say photography. My H got me a really nice camera but I don't really know how to use it.

TTC #1 since 2.14
Month/Cycle: 2/3
CD/DPO: 1
Timing: Not good enough
Testing Plans: Yeah, totally took my first test yesterday as I was tied for my longest cycle ever (among other things). AF took that as her cue to show up overnight. Doing a lot better that last time though. I’m kinda looking forward to charting this cycle, with a goal to actually get CH this month. It’s like a challenge! (gees, you can tell I haven't been doing this long).
GTKY: Basket weaving would fun. Ditto on all the languages including signing.
Off to WTO for me. @carbsovereverything FX for you!

Testing Plans: wtf! Turned a faint pos on a wondfo yesterday...twice. Couldn't believe my eyeballs! So I POAS this am...still positive and darker! My mind is blown.....
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks:
All the usual pms symptoms but a bit worse. BBs are achy, was so tired yesterday and headaches.
All I can say is I love this board! I've found so much info on here after lurking a few months then getting the balls to join the conversations. I think all you girls are awesome! I'm cautiously optimistic and so is DP. But today, I am pregnant. Just going to roll with this and enjoy the ride!

I always wanted to get into woodworking! Love the smell of wood shops

@whenweawake, welcome to TWW and best of luck! I would definitely suggest following the advice of PP's.
FX this is your lucky cycle @jags8 & @ajetter!
A huge congrats to @carbsovereverything for your BFP!!
Month/Cycle: 4/3
CD/DPO: 16/3
Timing: -2, -1, O
Testing Plans: AF is predicted the 11/9. I am going to try to hold out until then.
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: I am nervous going into this cycle. I have experienced both a sharp BBT drop letting me know that it wasn't our lucky month, as well as, high temps with no drop before AF. I was even a day late which prompted my hopes to soar only to be dashed when AF arrived without warning. My thought is to go into this TWW staying as possible as possible, not over analyzing every fluctuation of temperatures and not reading into every little twinge I feel.
GTKY - if nothing was holding you back, what is one skill you would want to learn? I would go to school to drive my passion for culinary arts. Second, would be delving further into weight lifting and fitness training.

Ooooh. Crap. I just figured out what WTO means when I read your comment. It's not on the acronym list in the Newbie Guide (or at least I didn't find it), so yesterday I saw the questions in the thread and dove right in!

CD/DPO: 18/3
Timing: high
Testing Plans: Not for a while
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: Nada. Just happy for a high temp today and to see a Sunday O confirmed on FF. That meant our timing was very good.
GTKY - if nothing was holding you back, what is one skill you would want to learn? Probably guitar. I wish I stuck with music when I was younger because I think I would really enjoy it as a hobby. Also, for all of you that say photography and have a nice camera but don't know how to use it, go take a beginners class at your local community college! It's not hard to learn the basics if you have a good instructor and it is a really fun hobby!
Month/Cycle: 4
CD/DPO: 20/6
Timing: -4, O
Testing Plans: Next week sometime
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: Still way too early for anything to be showing up, just waiting.
GTKY - If nothing was holding you back, what is one skill you would want to learn? I speak some Spanish but I'd love to master it. And my mom's family are all quilters but I've never figured out that one, either. But my first thought was cooking-- I'd love to take a few classes or even go to culinary school!
