Re: TWW Thursday
CD/DPO: 20/6
Timing: -5, -2, -1, 0
Testing Plans: soon and then often.
Rants/Raves/CS: My temps stayed high this morning despite me feeling cold all night.
GTKY: Autumn is upon us- what are you looking forward to the most this season? Well usually I look forward to Pumpkin Spiced Lattes but I don't like the taste of them this year so I guess I will say cooler weather so I can wear my handknits without looking like a loon.

Month/Cycle: 2/1
CD/DPO: 21/3
Timing: if FF is to be trusted, -2, -4
Testing Plans: none at the moment
Rants/Raves/CS: FF gave me crosshairs today and I just don't know if I agree?

*child mentioned*
My son is 1.5 so I'm really excited for him to really experience fall for the first time- like crunching leaves under his feet, going to a pumpkin patch, etc
Month/Cycle: 4/4
CD/DPO: 23/8
Timing:-4 to+1
Testing Plans: wait for af
Rants/Raves/CS: my temp went way back up this morning and still spotting. I am so confused by my chart this cycle.
GTKY: Autumn is upon us- what are you looking forward to the most this season?
I love everything about autumn, this year though, I'd probably say having our first anniversary. We had a fall themed wedding last November.

Fx for you

Fx for you too!
CD/DPO: 39/7-8
Timing: All the days...except maybe -4/-3
Testing Plans: No willpower. None.
Rants/Raves/CS: **PRIOR PREGNANCY/CHILD MENTIONED** Happy I'm getting 3+ hours of sleep in a row, even if FF isn't happy I've been waking up 15-30 minutes before it would like. I also had a nice .3 temp shift today for day 7/8. I'm horribly guilty of SS right now...bloating and gas aren't new before AF, but I'm usually never constipated. And SO thirsty (which happened to me last time). It's likely I'm just more hyperaware of my body since I just started TTC this cycle, and I'm trying so hard to keep emotions in check as to not get my hopes up. I got KU with DS on my honeymoon NTNP, so I constantly have to remind myself it may not be so easy this time.
GTKY: Autumn is upon us- what are you looking forward to the most this season? Fall is my favorite, so EVERYTHING. Leaves changing color, sweatshirt and jean weather, holidays, things smelling like cinnamon.
Month/Cycle: 1/1 temping
CD/DPO: 28/11
Timing: -3,-2-0
Testing Plans: got a BFN at 11 DPO this morning. Not testing until AF is late
Rants/Raves/CS: had to put a cold pack on my Boobs last night for pain/burning and been napping during the day. Well I guess it's AF showing her ugly head soon. Trying to stay positive because temp got slightly higher, but jet lag messed everything a couple of days ago so hard to tell
GTKY: Autumn is upon us- what are you looking forward to the most this season?
definitely the trees changing color! It's one of the most beautiful thing here Upstate NY. But I could still take a couple of week of above 75F weather!
CD/DPO: 18 / 6
Timing: -3 -1 +1
Testing Plans: On or about 12dpo.
Rants/Raves/CS: RE appointment this afternoon. I'm ready for more tests.
GTKY: Autumn is upon us- what are you looking forward to the most this season? Bow hunting and cooler weather. Going to the fair. Our anniversary is this month also. :x
DX - MFI Antibodies, High DNA fragmentation
IUI #1 November 2015 - 0% Motility
IVF #2 May 2016 - (FAIL/25 eggs, 1 5BB xx, PGS abnormal)
CD/DPO: 21/5 or 21/3 (what do you think?)
Timing: (-4, -3, -2, -1, O, +1) or (-2, -1, O, +1)
Testing Plans: No idea. I might just stick with the testing plans for Friday 9-11.
Rants/Raves/CS: My CH showed up this morning and they are NOT where I expected them to be!!!
CD 18: I still thought I had watery CM.
GTKY: Autumn is upon us- what are you looking forward to the most this season? I have a love/hate relationship with autumn. I love autumn but I HATE that it means winter is coming. I hate winter so much. Every year feels like a struggle to just get through it! But I do love pumpkin everything, the crispness in the air, cute scarves and layers, the colors, and boots. There is a mile-long stretch near my neighborhood of maple trees and when they all turn red at the same time, it's gorgeous. I refer to that area as Red Tree Lane, all year long.
CD/DPO: 32/13
Timing: -4, -3, -2, -1
Testing Plans: soon? Maybe starting tomorrow?
Rants/Raves/CS: at this point, I'm just waiting for AF to show up. Or to not show up. I'm ready to move on to the next phase, whatever it'll be...
GTKY: Autumn is upon us- what are you looking forward to the most this season?
I LOVE the fall! It's my favorite season. The crisp clear nights, the changing leaves, the start of hockey, thanksgiving (which starts off the holiday season...!) one of my favorite things I do every fall, about an hour away from me, up in New Hampshire there is the huge pumpkin festival/street fair. Every other food tent has cider donuts and caramel apples and hot cider. And everyone can decorate a pumpkin and they all line the streets and also this huge scaffold tower, and they light those ones up. It's awesome!
CD/DPO: 38/8
Timing: -1, 0, +1
Testing Plans: 13dpo (next Tues)
Rants/Raves/CS: Like Deeny14, I'm also hyperaware of my symptoms. Lots of abdominal discomfort (although not out of the norm for me). My temp bumped today but I didn't get much sleep last night, and actually haven't been sleeping well for the past 4-5 nights. I fall asleep ok but then wake up 1-2 hours before my alarm and can't fall back asleep. Now I'm worried I'll get sick because I often do if I'm sleep deprived. Yuck.
GTKY: Autumn is upon us- what are you looking forward to the most this season? I'm excited for the cooler weather and the leaves. I have a big exam coming up and then am going to New Hampshire with some friends for a weekend trip at the end of Sept so that's exciting.

CD/DPO:20/7
Timing:-4, -2(x2), -1, 0, +1
Testing Plans: I plan on waiting until I am 10 dpo, which is Sunday.
Rants/Raves/CS: Nothing at the moment. My body has been feeling like its falling apart lately. It can quit that at anytime -_-
GTKY: Autumn is upon us- what are you looking forward to the most this season? Cider and bonfires!

Month/Cycle:
CD/DPO: 25/ 1 day post IUI
Timing: IUI, so good
Testing Plans: I am currently testing out my trigger.
Rants/Raves/CS: Not much, but my trigger line is very dark.
GTKY: Autumn is upon us- what are you looking forward to the most this season? ALL OF IT! I love the cooler weather and anything Halloween.
Month/Cycle: 2/2
CD/DPO: 16/4
Timing: -4, -3, 0
Testing Plans: Not until AF is due, if I can hold out. I've got a huge stash of Wondfos in my night stand, so probably not.
Rants/Raves/CS: I'm very curious to see what temping will reveal for me next cycle. I think I have a good idea of about when my O day is based on CF, so it'll be cool to see how close or way off I am.
GTKY: Autumn is upon us- what are you looking forward to the most this season? The cooler weather, and hunting/camping with my family in October! Also, scarves.
BFP #1: 9/12/2015
DD: 6/1/2016
BFP #2: 1/16/2018 MC 2/2/2018
Month/Cycle: 4/4
CD/DPO: I believe 6 dpo
Timing:I'm new to this. Not sure exactly what this means. Can anyone fill me in?
Testing Plans: none. My husband was working night shift so haven't seen him much. Our schedules completely clash so don't think it happened this month
Rants/Raves/CS: raves:it's my weekend and just finished our first week of the school year. I have 2 classes this year and I think I've got 2 good groups!
GTKY: Autumn is upon us- what are you looking forward to the most this season?
I live in the desert so I'm looking forward to sub-100 degrees and of course pumpkin spice latte. I'm also celebrating my 30th birthday in Copenhagen, Denmark in 2 1/2 weeks. Amped for autumn!!!!
Month/Cycle: 2/1 (13/12 charting but not temping)
CD/DPO: 31 / 13 or 14?
Timing: -2 , 0
Testing Plans: Waiting for AF if not here then will test Sat AM before LBD wknd festivities.
Rants/Raves/CS: Ranting again about myself and not consistently temping the past few months. I would love to know for sure when I O'd this month. I've got none of my typical cramping/AF symptoms so I'm starting to wonder if this will be another long cycle like the one I had back in May that was 51 days long. I have an OBGYN appt coming up in 2 weeks so if that is the case then I'll be sure to bring it up and discuss with him. I should just POAS to be sure but back in May I was sure I was KU and peed on all the sticks and just got BFN after BFN and I really don't want to see that right now but I will Sat AM before a weekend of dranks for the holiday!
GTKY: Autumn is upon us- FAIRS, FAIRS, FAIRS. I live in New England and I've been counting down the days until the Big E starts since the Spring. I usually go 2 or 3 times I can't get enough. The craft common is my personal heaven.
And yay for another New Englander!
CD/DPO: 22/8
Timing: -3,-1,0
Testing Plans: DPO 11
Rants/Raves/CS: I stared at my stash of pee sticks for like 5 minutes this morning and was able to resist, mostly because DH had already left and we said only test while he is home too. Like others I think I'm just hyper aware of my body now and am failing at not symptom spotting. I woke up cramping this morning and am doing my best to not say it is AF or implantation cramps. AF due in 7-8 days and I normally start cramping 3-4 days before, but this is only cycle 2 off BCPs so there is no normal yet.
GTKY: Autumn is upon us- what are you looking forward to the most this season? BOOTS!!!!! I love wearing boots with dresses!
CD/DPO: 18/3
Timing: -2, -1, +1
Testing Plans: 13 DPO
Rants/Raves/CS: I woke up this morning and temped at the usual time and dozed off for a second while I was temping. I woke up when the thermometer beeped and my mouth was slightly opened and my temp was lower than normal. I tested again right away (I did move around a little to grab my phone, but didn't get up) to see if it would make a difference and my temp was .23 higher than the first time. If I put the first temp in then I don't get CH and if I put in the second higher temp then I do. I went with the higher temp because I know that I did it correctly that time, I just hope it doesn't mess up my chart. I guess my temp tomorrow will give me a better idea. If I really did O on CD 15 then our timing was pretty good this month!
GTKY: Autumn is upon us- what are you looking forward to the most this season? I love fall, it is my favorite season! My favorite parts of fall are the start of football season, wearing boots again, and pumpkin and apple everything!
Thank you!

Testing Plans: Not until AF is due
Rants/Raves/CS: My boobs are killing me this morning, actually my whole body hurts because of my workout yesterday. LOL. My temp dropped today, but still is above the coverline, hoping it goes back up tomorrow.
GTKY: Autumn is upon us- what are you looking forward to the most this season? I love fall! Yesterday I went to Hobby Lobby and bought a bunch of fall/Halloween décor. Is it too early to put it up? Haha. I love the comfy clothes (boots, sweaters, warm socks, scarves :x ) and all of the yummy food.
CD/DPO: 38/ ? (Didn't start temping untIL this week)
Timing: not sure since I wasn't temping last month
Testing Plans: every few days until AF arrives. Was testing obsessively for awhile, but at this point I'm not holding my breath for a BFP
Rants/Raves/CS: I have recurring ovarian cysts- not sure if it's PCOS or "just" cysts. When I was on the pill, the pain lasted maybe a week. Off the pill, it starts ~CD 12-14 and lasts pretty much until AF arrives. Since I'm currently on CD 38, this means my ovaries (both sides this time, yay) have been hurting for 3+ weeks now. Thankfully the pain is only mild-moderate this month, but it's still super annoying.
GTKY: Autumn is upon us- what are you looking forward to the most this season?
Lower humidity! July/august in the mid Atlantic can be rough.
CD/DPO: 24/12
Timing: -2, 0
Testing Plans: Saturday or Sunday morning. FF says AF should be here Sunday so I'm shooting for that.
Rants/Raves/CS: I've felt like crap in general the past few days. Slightly nauseous and today my throat is horribly dry and scratchy on top of all that. I'm chalking it up to just really crappy PMS symptoms.
GTKY: Autumn is upon us- what are you looking forward to the most this season? Fall is probably my favorite time of year next to Christmas time so I'm looking forward to tons. Pumpkin spice lattes, pumpkin beer (or not... Idk
So, 95.4 is super low. I am thinking maybe you were mouth breathing for that really low one. When this happens to me I just stay still, make sure my mouth is not too dry (close my mouth and sit for a minute or two), then re-temp. It has always comes back up to range after that. The key is just to not move around too much so it is still accurate.
Month/Cycle: 9/11
CD/DPO: 20/6
Timing: -3,-2,-1, +1
Testing Plans: All day, e'ry day.
Rants/Raves/CS: I accidentally turned off my alarm instead of pressing snooze this morning and woke up at 8 a.m., which is when I should be leaving the house. Also, I have a crick in my neck from how I slept. On the plus side, I got over 8 hours of sleep and feel super rested! Also, I decided to spoil my self and get 2 donuts and a large coffee from Dunkin Donuts; so I'm feel pretty good right now - full, caffeinated, and well rested.
GTKY: Autumn is upon us- what are you looking forward to the most this season?
Fall is the best season, and October is the best month. I love the color palette for sweaters (red, orange, yellow, and brown hues), tucking my jeans into equestrian boots, and having my hair stay sleek. At yesterday's haircut the stylist dissuaded me from getting side bangs until the fall when the humidity goes away; so now I have that to look forward to too. I love the way the air is crisp and fall foliage and (more so in the Midwest than out here in New York City) the smell of burning leaves. We are hopefully going to DC for an overnight later this month and will also try to drive up from New York City to take in some fall scenery for a weekend in October... maybe Maine, maybe Storm King, maybe Vermont (I hear they have great beer), or Cooperstown. I am also dying to see Olana, and my girlfriend wants to go to Hyde Park, New York. All these fairs people are mentioning sound amazing! I want to go home to Illinois for Thanksgiving to get in some family time, but would likely leave my husband behind to work and watch our kitties. Oh, also, the cats sleep on our feet more as it gets colder. Looking forward to and dreading my RE appointment in November.
CD/DPO: 24 / dpo 3
Timing: -2, -5
Testing Plans: After AF is late
Rants/Raves/CS:played around with FF during lunch and in-discarded a lot of temps. Got solid CH, but it made my timing a little worse.
GTKY: Autumn is upon us- what are you looking forward to the most this season?
Boots and pretending it's chilly in San Diego.
Edited bc playing with FF.
