CD/DPO: 24/10-ish
Timing: very good
Testing Plans: Tested this morning for a BFN, which I expected. It's still early.
Rants/Raves/Chartstalks: My freaking boobs were killing me last night, like to the point where I woke up because they were sore from being laid on throughout the night. On a whim I tested this morning. I knew it was too early but I did anyways. BFN, just like I expected. Damn you titties. Shut up with your hurtin'.
GTKY: What is your favorite breed of dog/cat? You can base it off looks and/or personality, and you don't have to have ever owned one. I love big dogs! We had great danes growing up. My husband grew up with labs though and refused to get anything else, so we have a chocolate lab named Griswold. He's pretty awesome.
Cycle/Month: 8
CD/DPO: 19/5
Timing: Hoping good enough
Testing Plans: The 19th or 20th depending on temps
Rants/Raves/Chartstalks: I like the 2WW way more than WTO. Is that an UO? Anyway, while I am expecting this cycle not to be the one, I am also starting to feel hopeful again.

Timing: -4,-2-,-1,O

Rants/Raves/Chartstalks: Yesterday I had ewcm really early. Usually I get it right before I start my period like 10-11dpo but yesterday I got home and was like du fuq is this? Oh well it's probably nothing. Last night I couldn't sleep AT ALL, I think I woke up every hour and I have a stomach ache boo.

My pup is a Bernese Mountain Dog so I may be biased, but it's definitely become my favorite. He's beautiful. And responds to the names "lil shit" and "poops"

Hands down, the Boxer. I absolutely love their "forever young" personality, great with kids, BEAUTIFUL, loving, cuddly, and generally everything else about them.
I am not a cat person.

BFP: 05/17/2014 EDD: 1/25/15 MMC: 06/30/2014
CD/DPO: 23/9
Timing: -3, -1
Testing Plans: This morning. I got a BFP on a Wondfo. (I had checked the lot numbers when I got them to make sure I didn't have one that was supposed to be in a "bad" batch. Of course, now I can't find the list.) I tested again with a FRER with the same urine (which was actually fairly diluted SMU) and it was a stark white BFN. No misinterpreting - I took it apart, there wasn't even a shadow of a line. I am positive that what I got on the Wondfo wasn't an evaporation line, which I've seen plenty of times before. It was pink, and while fainter than the control line, it came up right away. I'm so upset that I'm sick to my stomach. For anyone who's curious, the lot number on the false positive Wondfo is W00130943-4.
Rants/Raves/Chartstalks: Nothing. I'm angry and can't stop crying.

BFP: 05/17/2014 EDD: 1/25/15 MMC: 06/30/2014
CD/DPO: 23/10
Timing: -3, -1, +1
Testing Plans: Sunday at 12DPO. Early but I know I won't be able to wait past then.
Rants/Raves/Chartstalks: My temperature is still pretty high today. It's not in the 98° range like it was yesterday, but it's still the second highest temperature on my chart and I did not drink it all last night. I'm hopeful but I still feel like I have a ticket to the crazy train because I'm sitting around staring at my chart and wondering what it all means.
GTKY: I've always had huskies so I'm partial to them, but I also love German Shepherds. As far as cat breeds go, I love any kind of long-haired cat, but especially Mainecoons and Norwegian Forest cats.
CD/DPO: 15/3
Timing: -3, -1, +1
Testing Plans: I guess if the crosshairs don't move, I'll be testing around the 23rd or 24th.
Rants/Raves/Chartstalks: I just can never tell if I'm doing this right. I think my chart was frustrating because of multiple open circles, so I couldn't necessarily tell what was going on. I know I'll get more used to it over time, but for now I'm just going to trust FF.
GTKY: What is your favorite breed of dog/cat? You can base it off looks and/or personality, and you don't have to have ever owned one. (Bonus points for pics) My favorite breed of dog is the boxer. I have one, so I'm obviously biased, but she is the sweetest, prettiest, goofiest dog I've ever encountered. And I just LOVE her jowls!!
CD/DPO: 25/5
Timing: -2, -3, -5
Testing Plans: CD1 should be 12/22, so I'll try to hold out till 12/25 for a Christmas surprise. Being cycle 1 of trying, I'm quite likely to jump on board the crazy train.
Rants/Raves/Chartstalks: I finally got (dotted) CHs
GTKY: What is your favorite breed of dog/cat? You can base it off looks and/or personality, and you don't have to have ever owned one. (Bonus points for pics) I grew up with big dogs, and would love to have a husky, or even a pomsky because they're adorable. My favorite cat breed is the Bengal, they can learn to fetch and often like water, and they're beautiful. I also love my two boys who were rescued from a boat.
CD/DPO: 26/12
Timing: -4,-2-,-1,0, +1
Testing Plans: Not sure I might test Monday if there is no period and if my temps continue to rise.
Rants/Raves/Chartstalks: My temp went back up a little today. I really thought FF would move my CH's and that I ovulated on Monday. I guess not, or may be we'll see if my period arrives on Monday. I have awful cramps this morning too and my boobs have been pretty sore which are typical PMS signs.
GTKY: What is your favorite breed of dog/cat? No particular breed of cat but I love all black cats or black and white cats the best. I'm not really a dog person but I would love a Cavalier King Charles.
CD/DPO: 30/5
Timing: -4, -3, -2, -1, O
Testing Plans: next Thursday or Friday. We will see.
Rants/Raves/Chartstalks: I feel very meh about this cycle. I don't think this is the one.

I really REALLY really want a Corgi or Saint Bernard. I'm so in love with both breeds.
CD/DPO: 19/8
Timing: -4, -2, -1, O
Testing Plans: Got a BFN this morning but I realize it is really early to test. Next will be 10DPO
Rants/Raves/Chartstalks: Having a really difficult morning. Was spotting this morning. Cried on my way into work this morning over everything we have been throguh in the past six months. Lost my credit card and had to cancel it. Cried to my BFF before students showed up this morning. My one class is in a panic over grades and an upcoming test. BFFs dog probably has cancer. I have been on the verge of tears all day. I know it's a little AW but I'm just really down on myself today, I haven't felt like this since I came back to work. Creepy internet hugs are welcome
Cycle/Month: 1/1
CD/DPO: 27/4
Timing: -2,-1, O, +2
Testing Plans: If AF doesn't show up, I'll probably test on Christmas Eve.
Rants/Raves/Chartstalks: I got dotted cross-hairs this morning, but if my temp is slightly higher tomorrow I will get fully lined cross-hairs for a different O date. I think our timing would still be alright, if that happens.

I love all animals, but if I had to choose: I love Black Cats. I did have an orange Tabby that lived to be 17; he was my all time favorite pet. I lost him 2 years ago and it still stings the heart. Dog wise, I really love larger dogs. DH always had dachshunds so talking him into something larger was hard. I have always had a soft spot for Pit Bulls (American Staffordshire Terriers). They are so loving & loyal but always get a bad rap. We have a beautiful blue mix with blue eyes; she is my baby girl and I adore her.
Below are pics of my Tabby and my Pit.

I am surprised there isn't a phantom symptoms question because I am having a major one that is giving me tons of hope. My face feels hot.... this is the same feeling when I was pregnant with DS. I know it is so early so it's probably just my crazy but I am one of those types that are super sensitive to changes in my body. Trying to ignore it.
With that said I am going to wait to test, but holy snokes!!
GTKY: I am a bulldoger lover/owner. My Zeke is 7 and is 3/4 English 1/4 Old English. Not sure how to post a pic from phone, but he is adorable!!
DS#1- Born August 2011
CD/DPO: 21/7
Timing: pretty good (O-3, O-2, O)
Testing Plans: wait til AF is late, so maybe around 12/20
Rants/Raves/Chartstalks: I don't feel good about this cycle. I was sick during O, and I think I still did O but just feeling kind of 'blah' about our chances.

Cd/ dpo : 15/3 dpo
Testing plans: not till the 24th or 25th.
Rants / raves / chart stalk : none right now. I've felt really yucky and stressed out today, which is really screwing with my body. Ugh.
GTKY : mine is also a FFFC I really don't care for either cats or dogs. Mainly because I'm allergic to most of them (any with fur). So I tend to get annoyed with them.
