Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart:Loving how my chart looks this cycle. From the fertile window on, it just looks "right". My early cycle temps were all effed up from weird work hours as well as too much drinking... /:)
GTKY: What is your guilty pleasure/favorite trashy TV show? Through the years, it's been... Desperate Housewives, America's Next Top Model, The City, Laguna Beach, The Hills, The Real Housewives of (Beverly Hills, D.C., New Jersey), One Tree Hill, Gilmore Girls, Hart of Dixie, Gossip Girl, and The Paradise. And now it's Pretty Little Liars and Death in Paradise. All of the shows eventually blur together, though, and then I find myself thinking...

Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart:
Meh. I feel decent about my chart and our timing, but in trying to not symptom spot
GTKY: What is your guilty pleasure/favorite trashy TV show?
I don't really have one. I watch wrestling with SO and I've kinda gotten into that, but if he doesn't put it on I don't watch it. I have a hard time keeping on top of shows anymore so I prefer to binge watch them once they're over.
Testing Plans: Not sure, but I will try to hold out as long as possible.
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart: Finally got my temp spike, I was worried yesterday when it barely budged but FF moved my crosshairs over 1 day and the timing is actually better now.

This breaks my heart, I know exactly how you feel. *Creepy internet Hugs
GTKY: What is your guilty pleasure/favorite trashy TV show?
Bachelorette! Premiers tonight woooo But I like the bachelor better. Jersey Shore back in the day, the OC, Greys Anatomy (the original seasons), Laguna Beach and The Hills. Love watching old seasons when I have time
Timing: -4, -2, +1 (still holding hope that FF was 1 day off)
Testing Plans:
I really want to wait, as I feel like I just can't handle seeing a neg.
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart:
Dissappointed with our timing, DH had a fever the day before/of O. Also have a weekend travelling with good friends this upcoming weekend, and I'll be 9/10/11 DPO. It's going to be SO HARD not to drink.
GTKY: What is your guilty pleasure/favorite trashy TV show?

The Vampire Diaries - I think it started out as a really good show but it just keeps getting dumber. But I love it.
Month/Cycle: 2/2 CD/DPO: 20/8 Timing: -2, -1, 0 Testing Plans: waiting for AF on May 27th... if AF is a no show, I will test.
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart: my temp spiked up this AM. I'm not sure it means anything as this is only my third day of temping. I thought I O'd last week (+ OPK, although I know now this means nothing without more data). I do have a few OPK's from my last box, so maybe I will POAS and see what it says just in case. For now, gathering all the data and trying not to get my hopes up.
GTKY: What is your guilty pleasure/favorite trashy TV show?
DH and I watch Catfish on MTV. The first few seasons were good, but this last season I feel like they are being used by people trying to meet one another. Most of the time, I am just sitting there like "what the h***?, how have you been dating (by text) for 2+ years and never video chatted?" "seriously? wtf!"
Testing Plans: Have tested just about daily for a few days and all negatives, ugh. My luteal phase varies between 16 and 18 days so just waiting impatiently now.
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart: Spotting and cramps have stopped for two days now so I guess thats good. Could someone look at my chart please and let me know if my temp dips the last few days are getting close to a normal drop around AF? This is my first month temping.
GTKY: What is your guilty pleasure/favorite trashy TV show? I feel like I watch all the shows. I'm pretty excited for the new Bachelorette : )
edited because I have no idea why but here were about a thousand weird links that showed up in my post
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart: too early for any symptoms yet but I am hopeful.
GTKY: What is your guilty pleasure/favorite trashy TV show? Last night I watched a show called Retro Wives about women that live like it is the 1950's. It was very interesting. It was on after the Submissive Wives Guide to Marriage. Also very interesting. I secretly love when DH falls asleep in his chair early so I can catch up on TV!

Baby #4 Due: 2/4/2016 Feb16 August Siggy Challenge Favorite TV Mom
Testing Plans: actually tested this morning bc of spotting and not being certain about O date (which sucks btw)- negative. I'll test again Wednesday morning if I don't get my period by then. I'm thinking I'll start any minute now though...
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart: more of our friends told us they are pregnant by accident and while I'm happy for them, it sucks. And my hubby has been so optimistic and upbeat even after the MC but for the first time this announcement hit him pretty hard and he told me its starting to get to him too. Broke my heart a little. He's ready for me to go see my dr and I think I will if we're not successful next cycle (I think I may have a progesterone issue). And even though it's early, I told him I would research adoption which he was extremely open to.
GTKY: What is your guilty pleasure/favorite trashy TV show? Teen Mom
Testing Plans: Tested at 9dpo BFN. I tested this morning (12dpo) and was BFN after 5 minutes then I showered and got out to look and pretty sure I saw a faint line. Not to be trusted as it's a blue dye and I read it at about 15 minutes. AF is due Wednesday so I'll wait it out. Definitely not getting my hopes up.
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart: . Sore boobs and nips since 7 dpo, cramping since 9 dpo, nausea on an empty stomach since 10 dpo. All totally normal for PMS especially since it's my first month off BCP. My chart looks good except for the open circles because of drinking and interrupted sleep. So who knows if I would have had a temp drop one of those days.
GTKY: What is your guilty pleasure/favorite trashy TV show? 16 and Pregnant and Teen Mom! I could watch it all day. Also I sometimes watch Spongebob. ">
@tiffk10 -- Thx! And you're exactly right, it's still early days. Just ordered Wondfos bc I am officially joining the "Addicted to POAS" club and they are soooo cheap. This will be my first time using them!

Colin Patrick born on 4/29 via emergency C-section following 41-week induction
Testing Plans: Still trying to hold out until this Friday (13 DPO).
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart: No bloating yet which I'm grateful for since last month I was bloated from O day until AF showed up. Ugh. A little cramping and fatigue but I'm sure that's due to my bad sleep. My big symptom complaint is sore boobs which started on Saturday. Since my mc in January, my boobs have been totally normal even around ovulation and before AF. Not a single moment of tenderness in over 3 months which is highly unusual. They're not tingling though so it's probably nothing.
GTKY: What is your guilty pleasure/favorite trashy TV show? Lately it's been Alaska State Troopers. I don't know why I can't turn it off!
@navegalejos I completely get that. I bought my first batch of walmart cheapies over the weekend and I would have POAS this morning at 8dpo if they wouldn't have been in my car 8-}
Testing Plans: none. Waiting it out as long as I can manage. I know it's still much too early.
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart: not much to say today. Non-ttc related... I don't want to be at work today.
GTKY: What is your guilty pleasure/favorite trashy TV show? When I occasionally actually watch some TV, I love documentaries. I can't stand most of today's "reality TV" but I must confess I love "I didn't know I was pregnant" it's absurd and I watch it out of morbid curiosity mostly.
Testing Plans: happy to wait for AF at the moment, and at least after our weekend away, so maybe 5/27?
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart: woke up sweating this morning and my temp spiked. weird, but hubby said it happened to him too. Maybe it was the bloomin' onion we shared at dinner?
GTKY: What is your guilty pleasure/favorite trashy TV show? I can fall into a pit of Bar Rescue from time to time, and I still pretty regularly watch Hell's Kitchen. DH says it's dumb because it's just everyone always yelling, but whatevs.
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart: My temp is dropping a bit but still above the cover line and I did not sleep well last night, so that's probably why. Not too worried because my LP temps can be kind of wonky.
GTKY: What is your guilty pleasure/favorite trashy TV show? I actually don't have one at the moment, but Bachelor/Bachelorette, DWTS, and Vampire Diaries have all been guilty pleasures in the past.

Testing Plans: Thought about trying to wait until when FF suggests which would be the 26th (16dpo), but that isn't happening. I'm having a hard time waiting now! I'll at least try to wait until Wednesday (10dpo).
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart: Feeling really good this cycle! My chart looks better than it has since I've started charting and I don't know- I'm just really thinking like this might be the one! Of course, trying not to get my hopes up. My boobs are killing me, though. They always get a little sore before AF- but this is unreal! I'm thinking its because of the clomid.
GTKY: What is your guilty pleasure/favorite trashy TV show? I don't really watch much TV- but when I do it is more Bones, CSI-cyber, NCIS, the Flash- those types.
Testing Plans: Have tested just about daily for a few days and all negatives, ugh. My luteal phase varies between 16 and 18 days so just waiting impatiently now.

Testing Plans: actually tested this morning bc of spotting and not being certain about O date (which sucks btw)- negative. I'll test again Wednesday morning if I don't get my period by then. I'm thinking I'll start any minute now though...
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart: more of our friends told us they are pregnant by accident and while I'm happy for them, it sucks. And my hubby has been so optimistic and upbeat even after the MC but for the first time this announcement hit him pretty hard and he told me its starting to get to him too. Broke my heart a little. He's ready for me to go see my dr and I think I will if we're not successful next cycle (I think I may have a progesterone issue). And even though it's early, I told him I would research adoption which he was extremely open to.

CD/DPO: 27/12
Timing: -4, -3, -1, O
Testing Plans: Tested at 9dpo BFN. I tested this morning (12dpo) and was BFN after 5 minutes then I showered and got out to look and pretty sure I saw a faint line. Not to be trusted as it's a blue dye and I read it at about 15 minutes. AF is due Wednesday so I'll wait it out. Definitely not getting my hopes up.
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart: . Sore boobs and nips since 7 dpo, cramping since 9 dpo, nausea on an empty stomach since 10 dpo. All totally normal for PMS especially since it's my first month off BCP. My chart looks good except for the open circles because of drinking and interrupted sleep. So who knows if I would have had a temp drop one of those days.
GTKY: What is your guilty pleasure/favorite trashy TV show? 16 and Pregnant and Teen Mom! I could watch it all day. Also I sometimes watch Spongebob.

CD/DPO: 25/9
Timing: -4, O
Testing Plans: Still trying to hold out until this Friday (13 DPO).
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart: No bloating yet which I'm grateful for since last month I was bloated from O day until AF showed up. Ugh. A little cramping and fatigue but I'm sure that's due to my bad sleep. My big symptom complaint is sore boobs which started on Saturday. Since my mc in January, my boobs have been totally normal even around ovulation and before AF. Not a single moment of tenderness in over 3 months which is highly unusual. They're not tingling though so it's probably nothing.

CD/DPO: 19/5??
Timing: -4, -3, -1, +1
Testing Plans: none. Waiting it out as long as I can manage. I know it's still much too early.
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart: not much to say today. Non-ttc related... I don't want to be at work today.
GTKY: What is your guilty pleasure/favorite trashy TV show? When I occasionally actually watch some TV, I love documentaries. I can't stand most of today's "reality TV" but I must confess I love "I didn't know I was pregnant" it's absurd and I watch it out of morbid curiosity mostly.
CD/DPO: 22/6
Timing: 0
Testing Plans: happy to wait for AF at the moment, and at least after our weekend away, so maybe 5/27?
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart: woke up sweating this morning and my temp spiked. weird, but hubby said it happened to him too. Maybe it was the bloomin' onion we shared at dinner?
GTKY: What is your guilty pleasure/favorite trashy TV show? I can fall into a pit of Bar Rescue from time to time, and I still pretty regularly watch Hell's Kitchen. DH says it's dumb because it's just everyone always yelling, but whatevs.
CD/DPO: 20/4
Timing: -5,-3,-1
Testing Plans: none yet
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart: My temp is dropping a bit but still above the cover line and I did not sleep well last night, so that's probably why. Not too worried because my LP temps can be kind of wonky.
GTKY: What is your guilty pleasure/favorite trashy TV show? I actually don't have one at the moment, but Bachelor/Bachelorette, DWTS, and Vampire Diaries have all been guilty pleasures in the past.

Timing: Every day -3 to 2
Testing Plans: was on medicated iui with trigger been testing out. Line is getting much lighter as each day goes. Hoping to believe a test by 11-12 dpo

GTKY: What is your guilty pleasure/favorite trashy TV show? LOL toddler and tiaras, Bad Girl Club and RHONJ
CD/DPO: 28/8
Timing: -3, 0
Testing Plans: Thought about trying to wait until when FF suggests which would be the 26th (16dpo), but that isn't happening. I'm having a hard time waiting now! I'll at least try to wait until Wednesday (10dpo).
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart: Feeling really good this cycle! My chart looks better than it has since I've started charting and I don't know- I'm just really thinking like this might be the one! Of course, trying not to get my hopes up. My boobs are killing me, though. They always get a little sore before AF- but this is unreal! I'm thinking its because of the clomid.
GTKY: What is your guilty pleasure/favorite trashy TV show? I don't really watch much TV- but when I do it is more Bones, CSI-cyber, NCIS, the Flash- those types.
