Re: *WTO Monday*

What you're doing to get KU: Temping, charting, lots of sex
Rants/raves/chart stalks: Thankful there are so many knowledgeable women here who can look at charts and give advice
GTKY- First car: Toyota Camry
My Ovulation Chart
CD: 16
What you're doing to get KU: temping, checking cm, charting, drinking more water, sex every other day, cutting back on caffeine.
Rants/raves/chart stalks: Tried the chart overlay on FF, and it is really cool! I just stared at it for a few minutes. My temps are following the same general pattern as last month, so that is neat to see.
GTKY- First car: sky blue '95 Taurus. I was so proud of that car!

TTC #2 - Jun 2017
BFP on 8/24/17
CD: CD 2
What you're doing to get KU: Honestly, just hoping to have sex more than once during my fertile window. I'm going to try drinking green tea during this cycle in the hopes of producing more CM as well as staying super hydrated. I also just bought wondfos and a new BBT (the mabis) - so nothing I haven't been trying already, just tweaking a few things
Rants/raves/chart stalks: I'm just still really bummed about last cycle. And while I know I'm still well within our year of TTC, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a bit frustrated. I'm just also going to blame AF for how I feel right now since literally everything makes me want to cry right now.
GTKY- First car: 2000 Plymouth Neon - man I loved that car. I actually had him through the end of 2010 and just yesterday I was wondering if he's still running and who's driving him now. I'm not a car person but I did drive that sucker for 7 years so a lot of stuff happened during that time. Just makes me nostalgic thinking about it. (and yes, my car was a boy and his name was Beans).
TTC #1 - Nov '14
DS born 10/18
What you're doing to get KU: Finally being good about trying to temp at the same time every day -- only 1 open circle so far! I had a shitty BBT last cycle, so I'm anxious to see how my chart looks with the Mabis one from Amazon. Hopefully it will be easier to interpret this time around!
Rants/raves/chart stalks: Kinda hoping that I ovulate earlier or later than FF anticipates... we are going to be out of town that weekend and.. sharing a hotel room with my sister and her friend. Not conducive to gettin' it onnnnnn. I'll be using my OPKs and watching my temps closely that week before we leave. :-w
GTKY- First car: Ahhh, I miss my first car. It was a sexy little 1996 BMW 328i, black with tan leather interior. Sunroof, 18-inch racing wheels, chrome exhaust, white "Euro" turn signals, awesome sound system. I thought I was the SHIT. B-)

What you're doing to get KU: wondfo opks, checking cm, temping, having sex
Rants/raves/chart stalks: AF showed this morning. I'm bummed and feeling like crap.

Rants/raves/chart stalks: @nicoash88 I feel you!! AF started this morning. I knew she was coming as I saw some evidence of her yesterday. Tried to convince myself maybe it was IB but I already knew better. So, I had a bottle of sangria last night while watching GoT. On to the next one!
GTKY- First car: 1999 Honda Accord, 2D coupe. Best car I ever had!

What you're doing to get KU: temp, opk, green tea, desperately trying to hydrate (I hate water), no booze, low caffeine, oh yeah and sex
Rants/raves/chart stalks: got my first flashing smiley! (Showed DH and he said: "what does that mean? Are you pregnant?" He's been gone for 2 weeks and knows I had af and that this week in fertile. But I really should have thought about showing him a happy faced pee stick. Sorry hubby.)
GTKY- First car: 1982 vw rabbit. She was a mess but she was my mess. My parents sold her without telling me when I left for college. I bawled when I found out.
CD: 3
What you're doing to get KU: Nothing yet
Rants/raves/chart stalks: I am going in to have my progesterone levels checked at 7DPO this cycle. I looked up other symptoms of having low progesterone, and almost all of them fit me. While I don't want there to be something wrong, it would also be nice to have an answer.

What you're doing to get KU: Sex.
Rants/raves/chart stalks: This is the part of the cycle I hate most. AF still hasn't left te premises. The clean slate doesn't feel so clean anymore. Getting back in the game is no use fertilty wise, and it's no fun either due to AF.

What you're doing to get KU: This is my first attempt at temping and checking CM. Sex every other day.
Rants/raves/chart stalks: As soon as I decided to start temping last week I got sick. Now my chart is pretty confusing because my cold is still lingering around. According to FF I may ovulate in the coming days, but who knows.
GTKY- First car: 1996 Saturn, 2D. It was dark purple and the most fun to drive car I've ever owned. Over 200k miles when we sold it.
This is my first post since joining a few weeks ago. I can't believe how much I've learned already! You ladies are great

What you're doing to get KU: sex every day this cycle- pretty excited about that part! preseed, water, prayer, positive thinking, blah, blah, blah
Rants/raves/chart stalks: Still bummed I'll be away from my hubby all next week but determined to stay in a positive space this cycle
GTKY- First car: 1996 maroon chevy cavalier. It had been a rental car in Hawaii in its previous life. Horn didn't work, power windows didn't work (picture opening the door at every drive though and atm...). Didn't help that I also scraped the whole left side against concrete and parked it into a small tree once. Ooops!

What you're doing to get KU: temping and prenatals in preparation for June
Rants/raves/chart stalks: FF is now saying I'm 3DPO but that can't possibly be right because my temps haven't changed at all! Just waiting for her to get less confused. I think we both hate my PCOS together.
GTKY- First car: 2002 Dodge Neon! Joining the Neon club! He was named Blue Lightning. My parents traded him in for the 2007 Ford Focus I have now. His name is Mohinder. He's a good car.

What you're doing to get KU: OPKs (clear blue advanced), first cycle trying to temp, sex every day, Increase water intake.
Rants/raves/chart stalks: I THINK I have this temping thing down. I know you can't tell much but here is my chart! Other than the moving around a lot in my sleep I have tried to be pretty consistent.
GTKY- First car: I didn't get my license until I was in my 20s due to living in NyC and not really needing to drive anywhere. So my first card was a BMW 335i. LOVED it!

Rants/raves/chart stalks: feeling frustrated this cycle but it's probably the hormones from AF. Lots of holiday time booked this month so hoping it helps me chill out a bit.
GTKY- First car: haha Plymouth Laser! That thing was sweet.

What you're doing to get KU: Guys, today was my first day temping and I'm excited!
Rants/raves/chart stalks: I realized last week that I'm genuinely excited about being pregnant again. I was sort of wavering between nervousness and excitement until then. Whenever I do get pregnant, I'm sure there will be some anxiety until I hear a heartbeat (we never heard a heartbeat with our miscarriage) but I know I'm ready to take on that fear. I have to say I think joining this board, hearing your stories, reading all the advice and interacting with others who are TTC has really helped me get to this point so thank you all!
GTKY- First car: 1987 Pontiac 6000! It was definitely NOT cool and was the same car (even color) as the drivers ed car but I loved it anyway because it was mine!

Month/Cycle: 3
CD: 14
What you're doing to get KU: I've been taking my PN, temping, using OPK's, and checking CM.
Rant: We weren't sure if we were going to skip TTC this month. According to a birthday predictor (yes we look at this for fun) our potential baby would just about have the same birthday as my 2 y/o Niece/God Daughter. It's not that my sister would have a problem with it (she's laid back). It is more that I didn't want my family to have to do back to back birthdays. Anyway, we decided to still try. WHO KNOWS what will happen and I didn't want to waste a month over something so petty. According to FF calendar and other signs I should be O tomorrow or Wednesday.
GTKY- First car: I had a dodge neon as well but I don't remember the year. The air conditioner was broke but I had a loud stereo system that made up for that (LOL).
CD:16
What are you doing: Charting, checking CM, and at least every other day if not everyday( we are trying to keep it fun)
Rants/Raves/vents: None for today
GTKY: First car a 1986 Buick Century. My friends and I called her Gertrude. I got her from my Godmother's mom it was her middle name. The car was a weird rose blush color. I Loved it until someone stole it.

What you're doing to get KU: Waiting for AF to leave the building
Rants/raves/chart stalks: I'm 90% sure I'm not ovulating, so two more months of trying before I go to the dr to get checked out. I haven't gotten a positive OPK, I'm spotting throughout my whole cycle and have no EWCM. Of course this all started exactly when we decided to start trying for #2.
GTKY- First car: A red acura integra. I loooooved that car. Still my favorite car ever.
