Testing Plans: Probably tomorrow at 10 DPO maybe I will have some self-control and wait.
Rants/raves/Chart Stalks: This is by first month temping so still trying to figure everything out and my temps look a little crazy up until the point when I started taking them at the same time.
GTKY: what’s your favorite time waster game? I am not much of a game person. In my spare time I am on the bump!
Testing Plans: I broke down and tested this morning with a FRER... And.... Absolutely nothing! Not even one line. Check and its not expired, I just get a dud. I think it's a sign to wait but symptom spotting like crazy. Ugh.
GTKY: what's your favourite time waster game? Game? -- fruit ninja or where's my water... But now after hearing these trivia games I thing I need to get in on that. I trivia muchly.
The bump is also not blocked at my work but, I feel like I have to bump from my phone bc everyone is so nosy and they keep looking at my computer screen while my back is turned and they say " THE BUMP... OMG ARE YOU PREGNANT" I don't even want them to know that I am trying so I just simply so NO when I really just want to say will you just mind your own business.
FX @MrsEmuTavi and @andtheheartbreakers!!
Cycle: 3
CD/DPO: 29/15
Timing: -4, -3, -2, O, 2
Testing plans: AF is due today. So if she's a no-show, tomorrow morning.
Rants: Seriously work??? I can't focus on you today. I just can't.
GTKY (time waster): definitely Bumping. It's my prep period and I have a stack of quizzes to grade. And I'm here... Oops!
This is also me currently. Just sub in journals to mark for quizzes.
Testing Plans: FF is guessing my period will start Sunday, so I guess if it doesn't come then I'll test. No plans to do so beforehand.
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: I think my temp two days ago was a fluke or something, don't know why it would drop so much then spike again. ::shrug:: I don't know whether to discard it or not at this point.
GTKY: what's your favourite time waster game? Well, playing on the TB, though not a game, and I just downloaded Trivia Crack - H was playing it last night and had me addicted!

::lurking:: @thechickencoop, I wouldn't recommend discarding your temp. I know the ladies around here are big on never discarding temps, just making notes. It gives FF more to work with. Just my two cents.
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
Rants/raves; ordered my thermometer so it should arrive next week. i will start temping if needed next cycle. I am glad its friday and the DH and I are planning to go see a basketball game tonight! Looking forward to date nite!
GTKY: What is your favorite time waster game? I do not play any games. I dont even have one game app on my phone, actually the only game i do have is charades. that one we play when we are waiting in line at disneyland
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: I have been waiting to test all week, and now I am not sure if I want to. I was so upset last month when I saw the negative. I cried and DH got mad bc he couldn't do anything to "fix it." Of course, the first month of trying I thought I had every symptom possible. I had to jump off that crazy train and relax. We are going to dinner with friends tomorrow night, so I better test if I plan to have a glass (or 5) of wine... TGIF is right. It has been a great week back with all my 5th graders, but I am beat. I got all my grading done early in the week, so I don't even have to think about school until Monday morning. Wooohoo
GTKY: what's your favourite time waster game? I love quizcross, other than that I am pretty addicted to facebook. Not that I post much, but I'm always checking the news feed for something interesting when im bored, but seldom find anything. DH and I love to record Jeopardy and The Chase. We are pretty good when we can pause and think for a second!
@LaurynCbb, we are cycle twins!!! Same DPO, same timing, and we are both teachers! Good luck testing tomorrow, I'm testing too.
Now to everyone talking about husbands symptom spotting (@risscabobs & @emilie818) MH is hilarious! I told him if I didn't start spotting before Saturday that I would think our chances are good. He texted me in the AM once he got to work and after my work day was over Monday through Wednesday asking if I was spotting yet. Then I started spotting Wednesday so now instead of asking if I'm spotting (because I spotted before my +HPT with our previous pregnancy) he asks if I got my period yet. There are moment when it drives me batty, especially when I am in a bad place, but most of the time I find it so endearing that he is THAT into TTGP. I think if he could have peed on a stick for me he would have started at 3DPO, haha.

4/2014 1st BFP * 8/2014 Caleb Emmanuel became an angel * 11/2014 Started TTC Again
Testing Plans: Tuesday at the earliest, but going to try and hold out until Thursday (when I'd definitely be 12 DPO)
Rants/raves/Chart Stalks: Having some cramps today, and trying not to read into them. I'd love to be positive on the day I O'd.
GTKY: what’s your favorite time waster game? I go in spurts. My latest one has been the sims, but I un installed it a few weeks ago to quell the crazy.

BFP #3 07.18.2014, MC 07.31.2014 5w6d
DX: RPL due to submucosal uterine fibroid. Hysteroscopy 12/16. All clear!
DH keeps asking if I can test yet. It's fun to see him so excited, but when he starts calling my stomach names, it is too much. His SIL announced her 2nd pregnancy just after thanksgiving , so he has been all about it this cycle. I will never complain about more sex, I just don't want him to be let down if this isn't our month.
Testing Plans: Not until missed period! Crazy month! 2 of my best friends have IVF transfers this month. I feel like I need to be patient more than ever this month. Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: Met with my Dr. this month. Ugh. Going in for blood work he is talking about putting me on Clomid after this cycle. I had problems ovulating to get prego with my daughter.
GTKY: what's your favourite time waster game? Don't really play games.. but PINTEREST takes so much of my time and it is addicting!!

Please check out other threads on the board about Clomid. My understanding is that it is a very dangerous drug if used improperly and it should be seen probably as a last resort. I would AT LEAST wait the full year of TTC before taking Clomid.
If you are having trouble ovulating, if you don't mind my asking, how are your cycles approx. a month? I ask because some other women on here have had trouble ovulating and one full cycle could easily be 40+ days. I ask because I'm curious and I figure the more informed I am the better prepared I am for the future.
