Testing Plans: probably next Friday if no AF...if I can hold out that long.
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart: Weird cramps yesterday, and a little bit today. I swear they are coming from my ute but might just be from all the cake I've been eating. Cause you don't need a reason to make cake. It is not a lie. You bet I read every post on implantation cramps yesterday though.
Testing Plans: tested this morning before work and I had a crazzzy faint squinter on a dollar store test... It was my last test and I'm planning to go immediately to the store to pick up more tests tonight.. I'm trying to not go crazy bc maybe I was just seeing things
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart: okay let's be honest, I've been freaking out all morning! My husband is out of town until next Thursday and I need to come up with a good way to tell him. (if this is really the one!!!)
Testing Plans: shoot, i've been POAS since 7 DPO. All BFN's
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart: https://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/5a4424 My small bit of hope is that my temps are staying high, but in all honesty I'm expecting AF this weekend
CD/DPO: 22/ ??? (I really screwed up this month, so I THINK I'm either 4 or 7 DPO)
Timing: If going off of 7 dpo, -3, -2, -1, 0
Testing Plans: Waiting until AF doesn't show up.
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart: We decided a few days after AF ended that we should go ahead and try this month, so I wasn't prepared with tracking things. No major symptoms to note - had lower back pain the past few days, but that went away today. I kind of just wanted to play along in this TWW and see how everyone else was doing, even though mine is kind of a big joke since I wasn't really tracking anything that well. If AF shows up, I'm starting to temp and check CM next month!
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart: my chart is a rocky mountain. I temp as soon as I wake up but don't always wake up at the same time. Im not temping vaginally tho (had no idea that was a good way to do it til i started reading threads and such so thanks ladies!) I plan to start next cycle if i get a BFN.
GTKY: I’m lazy – head on over to the doughnut post!
@katiett Yes FX! I was thinking for whenever I get to tell
my hubby that I will get an "I'm sorry" card...and on the inside
write that I'm sorry he has to take over litter box duty for the next 9 months.
I'm sure you can come up with something better than that though J
@MayBeSomeDay16 creepy internet hugs. It’s hard to say
without a lot of history. I know I typically have a significant drop the day of
which messed with my head a lot (I was thinking it would be more of a gradual
shift). Here’s hoping that doesn’t happen to you!
@labackerThanks for
joining in! It’s a TWW regardless
@LWilliams1219V As long as you are seeing a shift and FF
gives you crosshairs, a rocky chart is fine. I temp between 5:15 (when I’ve
been actually waking up lately) and 6:45 (when my alarm goes off), and I still
get a clear shift. I did switch over to vaginal temping though, because I was thoroughly
confusing FF with oral temps.
Testing
Plans: Tried to test this morning with a Wondfo, but I think it was a dud. I didn't see the pink dye move past the first section to where the lines are so no control line showed up, it was like it got stuck at that little plastic section above where you dip it (if that makes sense). I'll try again tomorrow and then probably Monday. Tempted to use a FRER tomorrow.
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart: I've had sensitive nipples the past several days but I think that's pretty normal for this time of the cycle for me. Some light cramping on/off the past couple days, but that's it.
Me - 30, DH - 31 Married - May 2014 TTC #1 - March 2015
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart:first month charting. I hold my breath as I enter in my temp since FF has already changed my O date once lol. TGIF!! Oh and I start my new postion on Monday as a property manager
Hey Ladies, hope it's ok to intro here...I've been in the boards since my 2nd was born in 2012 and I've lurked (pretty much everywhere and) since then.
Anyway, I have 3 kids (boy, girl, boy) aged 6.5, 3, and 17 months. I was unexpectedly pregnant when my youngest was 7 months old, but had a mc aground 6-7 weeks. I got pregnant again in February and at the very end of April when I was at my 14 week appt and there was no heartbeat. I had a d&c, then a week later had severe bleeding and has a 2nd d&c and spent the night in the hospital because I had lost too much blood.
I'm currently waiting for either my cycle or a bfp but didn't want to start a new thread to intro since I'm kind of in the 2ww.
We've been having sex every 3ish or so days since I had the ok from my dr and if af shows I will start temping.
Today was my last day of teacher in service (I teach kindergarten) so I stocked up on dollar store tests and I'm planning to drink til it's pink to celebrate summer vacation!
Thanks for starting @mouse315

@mouse315 - I can't wait for DH to be on semi-permanent litter duty either! Love the card idea. I'm having him get practice now during the week of ovulation and the TWW.
This is my first month off BC so I have no idea if I've O'd yet or whether I'm still WTO. If AF ends up coming this month (fx it doesn't!) I plan to better track using BBT and FF so that I can participate more accurately in the TWW.
Best of luck ladies!
edit (again)/rant: gifs aren't working... i don't know what i'm doing wrong, i did it the same way i did last time and was successful then. :-/
I didn't know where to put this and it doesn't warrant its own thread...if the postpartum preparedness thread were still open I would put it there, but..... I'm really into stand up comedy and cracked up listening to this guy:
Testing plans: I'm going to wait to take a test next till not Friday if I can hold off the long. So DPO 13
Symptoms/rants/raves/charts: I'm hoping this cycle works. It's my first clomid cycle so I'm trying to stay extra positive. No symptoms. However I've been mildly cramping all freaking weeks which is super weird I don't ever cramp. RE says everything looks good though!
SYMPTOMS/RANTS/RAVES/CHARTS I do not chart but I know my ovulation.( well I'm pretty sure) my period is 3 days after expected start day. ( yes I know it's not always the same and can change at anytime) the last time I was pregnant I didn't get a positive until 2 weeks after my expected period (19DPO) . So I'm hoping that's the case this time. My boobs just started being sore today and for me that's happened with all 3 pregnancy along with nausea. It has also started on and off. I know if I have symptoms I should turn a pregnancy test but I never do i get nauseated a few days before. My dr said it just takes longer for some women. If I am not positive this month I will be temping and charting next month. Edit for adding info
Testing Plans: Tested today, BFN. Will probably test daily until AF now.
Symptoms/Rants/Raves/Chart: Had bad cramps 9dpo and 10dpo with a bit of brown-tinged mucus. Really hoped it was implantation when it stopped on 11dpo but then BFN today and a bit more pink mucus so it's probably just AF taking her time
Update: thank you all for the FX bc this morning I got a BFP on a FRER!!! Over the moon excited! This will be the longest week ever waiting for my husband to get home so I can tell him!!!!

This is my first month charting and I was surprised to see that i ovulated early ish (cd 12). I am falling in love with charting. I'm liking the whole in charge, scientific feel of it.
Hey everyone! This is my first time posting, but I've been lurking for awhile. I really appreciate all of the information on here. Thanks everyone! My husband and I are both 29 and TTCing our first.
