@jagiese - "Timing" means how good or bad the timing of sex was in your fertile week. for instance, mine is -4 and O so i had sex 4 days before ovulation and the day of ovulation. or you could just say "good" or "ok"
Cycle/month: 4 Cycle day/DPO: 23/5 Timing: -4, O Testing plans: NYE which is when my period is due. i'm one of those people that would much rather see my period than a stark white BFN. Rants/raves: no rants today. Just glad to be keeping busy with Christmas and family obligations over the TWW to distract myself. GTKY: A week off with my son, hanging out with family, no work.
eta: one slight rant is that i'm debating whether or not to bring my thermometer on the road with us to my in-laws... i temp vaginally and don't really want to deal with cleaning it, someone finding it, etc. and i'll be drinking a lot probably ...bah
Testing plans: I was planning on 12dpo but I just realized we will still for Christmas, so probably tomorrow at 11dpo.
Rants/raves/chart stalks: I really just want to rave about this morning's TWW thread. Thanks to all the great FF advice, I switched my method to FAM and it moved my ovulation back a day. I was pretty sure I o'd on CD14 but FF had set it at CD15 (I think due to CM) I didn't even realize there were different methods. Thanks ladies!
GTKY: What are you most excited about this holiday season? H finally having a job he can enjoy and not feeling miserable all the time. It's been especially great now that the holidays are here because he's just so much happier and we both feel like we can enjoy them more.
Rants/raves/chart stalks: I am excited that I'm learning more than I ever thought I would about fertility and tracking. This is my first month temping and I find it to be a huge PITA. Just hoping it pays off in the end!
GTKY: What are you most excited about this holiday season? I am mostly excited to spend my first Christmas Eve/Christmas Day with my husband. He works a crazy schedule (nights/weekends/holidays) and he's always had to work since we've been together. I'm also REALLY excited for a nice long break from work. We don't go back to work until January 5th.
Cycle: 4
CD/DPO: 29/12
Timing: Alright
Testing: BFN at FMU this morning with a FRER. :-(
Rant: Waiting for AF so I can move on. Side boobs sore and "thick" feeling. Exhausted. Trying hard to stay awake. No cramps (which is bizarro). Went to bed early last night with a headache and slept like a rock. Still exhausted. My temps have been steady/creeping up, but I don't know my normal. Also constantly hungry and feel like my blood sugar is low, but left the tester at home.
GTKY: Sleep.

This exactly how I feel!! BFN @ 14DPO and still no signs of period!
Rants/raves/chart stalks: my vagina is a painin'. Like seriously, there is so much pressure that I think its going to fall off (out?). Also, crazy train peeps, peeing on things at 5dpo makes absolutely zero sense and you know it'll result in a bfn. Dont be dumb. Dont do it.
GTKY: What are you most excited about this holiday season? The fact that it's almost over. I'm cranky, I know. But really, watching my kids open their gifts and our xmas eve tradition.
Rants/raves/chart stalks: I dunno. I think my temps look ok...I was kind of worried there for a few days because I was barely above coverline. I'm so not on the bsc train though. I don't feel out...just...patient, I guess.
GTKY: What are you most excited about this holiday season?
Food, food, some more food, and stuffing my nephews' faces with food.

Hugs. I dealt with this last cycle and I was just tired of being in limbo. I didn't care which came first, just that I got one of them soon.
Thank you... it is a terrible place to be. This is new for me and so confusing!
@mandy522 by moving FF to FAM my O day is now moved to CD34
If you don't get a BFP or your period by 18dpo using your current CH, I would be inclined to believe the FAM setting. It's really unlikely that your LP would be longer than 18 days.

Completely agree thank you so so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Testing plans:Tomorrow morning. FX. We are at my grandparents house for the week, so I have to be super secretive. Rants/raves/chart
stalks: I am still having gas like cramps and getting nauseated with some indigestion after pretty much every meal for the last 3-4 days. I sure hope it means something. I still have none of my normal AF signs. As of tomorrow AF will be about 2-3 days late. GTKY: What are you most excited about this holiday season? I'm happy to see all of my extended family on Christmas, and happy to have 2 weeks off of work. We will spend a few days at home relaxing.

Rants/raves/chart stalks: Stalk me please!! O date says CD 12. Think thats really when I O'd? I'm a bit doubtful and would think CD 15 is a better candidate (in spite of CM being early), but I'll roll with it if everyone agrees.
GTKY: What are you most excited about this holiday season? Decorations. I'm obsessed. Christmas decorations just make me feel happy.
