Congratulations @ajetter@jgrace82 and @carbsovereverything!
Since ajetter mentioned not being sure about the accuracy of Wondfo HPTs, I just wanted to share my experience with them. Especially for those who just started using them. I've been using them for years and they often have little dimples. Sometimes right where the line should be and the dye pools up there and can give the appearance of a squinter. Check your test in bright light for those before you use it. It can save you a lot of heartache. Good luck ladies!
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: None for now..Just hoping next week gets here soon!
GTKY - if nothing was holding you back, what is one skill you would want to learn? I would love to learn how to play the guitar! I love to sing and have tried learning how to play a while back so that I could sing and play guitar but I don't have the time to commit to that right now. Maybe someday!
Tried to edit to fix tag..but clearly today is not my day..GAH!
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: Nothing of note that is different from yesterday (wacky spotting, mostly). I have developed crazy chin acne over the last day or two, which is annoying. My rant is that I'm frustrated with my temps. This is my first cycle temping, and they're very "Rocky Mountain"-ish, according to FF. I'll probably try temping vaginally next cycle. With temps like these, there's no way to tell if/when my temp starts to go back down.
GTKY - if nothing was holding you back, what is one skill you would want to learn? I'd want to improve my baking/cooking skills. I love to cook, but I only do basic recipes because I don't feel like I'm any good at it.
Married to the love of my life since September 2013. TTC #1 since January 2014 Met with RE Nov 2014: Cyst on left ovary. Laparoscopy/Hysteroscopy 12/3 to remove cyst, endo, polyp, and fibroid 12/14: Natural cycle = BFN 1/15: Starting Femara for IUI #1
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: I was using the Ovia app and it just kept changing every time I entered data.. Moved everything over to FF and it seems pretty sure that I O'd on 10/19. This is my first cycle off of BCP and no AF yet so other than what my chart says, I have nothing to compare it to. My body is going crazy and every symptom could also be attributed to going off of the pill.. So I'm just waiting for something to happen either way!
GTKY - if nothing was holding you back, what is one skill you would want to learn? I would love to learn more about cars.. DH is a master at anythin with a motor & even though I love cars and like being around them.. I would actually like to know what the heck is going on lol
Testing Plans:today might have been a bfp, I will re test tomorrow
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: FF has been messing with my cross hairs this month so I was pretty frustrated with it. Then last night it changed my CH to cd 17 (which is when I was pretty sure I O'ed) and made me 10 dpo today. So I took a test and thought it was bfn so I threw it out. Then remembered it was early and I should wait the two mins to see if something shows up. Then got a very very faint line. Couldn't tell if I was seeing things. I sent a picture to DH to see if he saw two and he could barely. So we will wait and see.. Trying to not get to excited

@kelley72 I'm super inspired by sign language. But for me it's practicality. DH has a genetic disorder and it's very likely our children will be hearing impaired and perhaps even deaf as well. I want to be able to communicate with my children and to communicate better with my husband. Sign language classes are definitely on my bucket list.
I am the same way! I always did baby sign with my boys. Then two months ago we found out my 4 year old DS, Has serious hearing loss in one ear. I am so grateful now that I have at least introduces them both to sign.
@liz581, I temp in conjunction with OPKs. Pretty much do it all And I'm sorry about your friends' announcement. I've been dealing with a lot of that recently. And it always stings. My best friend in the entire world started trying the same time we did and just had her baby about three weeks ago. That was hard to deal with and she's like a sister to me. Good luck to you.

So my new batch of OPKs arrived today and for shits I took one of the 10 hpt tests included. Am I crazy or is there a line? The red does not go all the way down the test line - do you think it could be a bad batch?

I don't see anything in the first image, and the second didn't show up, but linked me to a cat picture when I tried opening in a new tab. 8DPO is very, very early to test, so keep trying! FX!

@laurenlalap I actually do see a super duper faint line. Did you take that picture within the correct timeframe?
Yes - but the whole test looks a little weird to me. I'm not sure if you can see it, but there's a pink tinge to the whole thing.. I think it might be a bad batch, especially when you look at my chart from this month; it ain't pretty..

I dunno, I just see a super squinty line. If you can hold out, I would wait til 10 or 11DPO and test again.
