Rant/Rave/CS: this is the earliest I have ever O'd and I wasn't expecting it, luckily we had BD'd for fun anyway. This cycle I had been doing vaginal and Oral temps and wanted to see if both gave me crosshairs. They both did, it's just interesting to see the difference. Vaginal is the second one.
GTKY: what is your favorite food and is it something you make yourself? My favorite thing to eat is pizza. I love deep dish bbq chicken without the onions, and not made by me.
Testing Plans: I will not test today. I will not test today. I will not test today. I'll probably test this afternoon.
Rant/Rave/CS: FF says my chart may be triphasic. So that's cool.
GTKY: what is your favorite food and is it something you make yourself? Pizza. I make it myself if putting a frozen pizza in the oven counts as cooking.
Timing: -5, -4, -2, -1... somehow only a score of "good" on FF. Now I'm doubting whether we'll ever get "high"
Testing Plans: 10dpo
Rant/Rave/CS: just happy for CH at the moment. In last month's TWW there was some major stress eating and I put on a few pounds. I will be focusing more on my diet and keeping up with myfitnesspal this time both to prevent that from happening again and to distract myself
GTKY: what is your favorite food and is it something you make yourself? Steak at a steakhouse. With grilled shrimp on the side.
Rant/Rave/CS: FF is saying I O'ed on CD14. Generally matches with my temp shift and secondary signs. That day, I got + OPKs at 4pm, 815pm, and 11pm. When I tested with FMU the next morning and that afternoon, the OPK showed my LH surge was already fading. So, I don't buy O less than 12 hrs after an LH surge...:-/ But temps and 2nd signs show FW is done, so I'm at least 1 DPO!
GTKY: what is your favorite food and is it something you make yourself? Hmm, I'd have to say burritos. Yes, I make them at home--most often veggie and black beans with allll the fixins!
Testing Plans: Negative yesterday and positive today!
Rant/Rave/CS: Tested with a Wondfo at 0430 in the morning and saw a squinter. DH said he saw a faint line too so we pulled out an FRER to double check, and there was no denying it was positive. I definitely made him late to work this morning! There were many tears and hugs...
Thank you all so much for accepting me into this community, for all of the support, and for all of the laughs over the past few months. I feel like charting and TCOYF was the key I've been missing all along...and metformin...lol. I hope September continues to be a great month for the TTGP ladies!
Rant/Rave/CS: I know we haven't been trying that long, but I'm already getting discouraged. I was so excited and optimistic my first month and couldn't wait to test, and now I just feel like meh, it will probably just be negative anyway. Le sigh.
GTKY: what is your favorite food and is it something you make yourself? My favorite foods are bread and potatoes. In any form. Every form. All day, every day.
Me - 30; DH - 30
TTC #1 since June 2015 3/16 - Started infertility testing 4/16 - SA results: borderline low count/morph 8/16 - Ultrasound and HSG: all clear! Prescribed Bromocriptine for elevated Prolactin levels. 9/16 - Prolactin down to normal levels!
Testing Plans: BFN this morning, but I know it's early. I'll keep testing with Wondfos every day until AF or BFP.
Rant/Rave/CS: I hate the TWW. I hate the TWW. I hate the TWW. Other than that all good.
GTKY: what is your favorite food and is it something you make yourself?
I love a dish called "Toad in the Hole" at a local restaurant. It's sausage wrapped in cheddar cheese and pastry dough served with apple chutney. So delicious!
Testing Plans: waiting until my period doesn't come, if possible
Rant/Rave/CS: attached is my chart. for the second month, my temps have dipped at around dpo3. I know I shouldn't obsess over individual temps but trying not to be discouraged so quickly again. We also tried sex EOD and now I wish we just did ED
GTKY: what is your favorite food and is it something you make yourself? I love any kind of seafood, which I always destroy making myself so I leave that kind of cooking to the professionals

Rant/Rave/CS: I tried to put on a bra this morning and my boobs almost didn't fit! I LOVE this symptom, until I get randomly hit on in public places. This happens a lot. I don't think I'm particularly drop dead gorgeous, I just think I have one of those friendly faces that people automatically wanna talk to. My SIL is the polar opposite. She scares ppl w/ her RBF! ETA: GTKY: I make a mean black bean chili with honey-butter cornbread. I love to cook and would do so every day of the week if I could!

GTKY: what is your favorite food and is it something you make yourself? I'm with @RachelT1234 I love seafood! But I will make it at home, I also like going out to eat it.
@oandmplus1: I
thought about doing oral and vaginal temps to see the difference. I do
notice that my temps are a good .7 or .8 degrees higher than they were
when temping orally. So that is interesting to see the comparison!
@LizM61409: I

timing (from -3 to +1). I think you had really good timing though.

Rant/Rave/CS: So I was totally half asleep taking my temp (vaginally) and I was just waiting waiting waiting and like two min goes by and it still hadn't beeped so I take it out, but I have no light to see the temp so I have to open my kindle to get some light, only to realize that I never turned it on...
GTKY: what is your favorite food and is it something you make yourself? PIZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZA. I make pizza (and usually dough) every Friday and most of the time we just put whatever we have on it and trash it up, but sometimes I make a Thai Chicken pizza that is delicious. Tonight, it's ham and pineapple with a base sauce that is half BBQ sauce and half pizza sauce...and then I usually add bacon and a little coconut. Last week I made rice pizza (childhood favorite). Before that was bagel pizza. Biscuit pizza, pizza rolls, pizza bites, shrimp gumbo, fried shrimp, shrimp salad....

Afton Noelle born 4/10/19 at 38w5d via natural VBAC
Rant/Rave/CS: My temps were so wonky at the beginning of my cycle, and as soon as I stopped having wine before bed they became more steady. FF put my CH at CD31- which is a week later than I normally O. So I think I pretty much missed my window.
GTKY: what is your favorite food and is it something you make yourself? Sushi! And no, definitely can't make it myself. Its a treat too because its so expensive and DH and I are trying to watch our finances.
CD/DPO:31/11 (could be 10dpo, accurate temping will be more of a focus next month)
Timing:-4,-1
Testing Plans: Tested again this morning and nothing , I have Wondfos so I'm going to keep peeing on a stick until I get a bfp or af comes
Rant/Rave/CS: I really wish I would have been better about temping this month; my new schedule threw everything off. I'm ready to go now though, as soon as af shows her ugly face. I'm just not feeling very confident this morning at all. All the bfn's just make me even more upset. If calculations are right, af should be showing up on Monday. I the smallest amount of spotting on Wednesday and yesterday which got my hopes up for a little bit of implantation bleeding and I definitely think I gave myself too much hope
GTKY: what is your favorite food and is it something you make yourself? My favorite food is applewurst with yukon gold mashed potatoes and sauerkraut. We have a meat market where I go and get the applewurst and it is delicious.
Rant/Rave/CS: This is my 4th day of spotting. My temp jumped up this morning so I POAS, but BFN. I woke up with a sore throat and stuffy nose so I think it's probably just I'm running a bit of a fever. I still plan on treating myself with a really big sugary coffee this weekend.
GTKY: what is your favorite food and is it something you make yourself? I do not have a favorite food because I have a zillion favorite foods. I love to cook and try new recipes. Some of my favorites: Chile Colorado, Pollo en Salsa Verde, Carne Adovada, Carne Asada, Portugese Braised Eggs in Tomato Sauce, Cilantro Lime Chicken in a White Wine Sauce, Spanish Chicken in an Eggplant Tomato Sauce, Fluffy Pizza with whole milk mozzarella... I LOVE FOOD.
Testing Plans: Another BFN this morning. I've got a feeling I'm out this cycle.
Rant/Rave/CS: nothing.
GTKY: what is your favorite food and is it something you make yourself? I love food. I have a lot of favourites. Today I'd say sushi. I've made it with my parents and it is very good, but I prefer it from a real sushi place.
What the crap happened to my GTKY @BumpAdmin? Mobile Bumping fail?! I had a lovely one about how I love to cook and love to make my awesome black bean chili with cornbread! There was nothing to censor!

Testing Plans: Holding out until the 21st - AF is due around the 20th so I'm trying to stay strong and not test too early
Rant/Rave/CS: Trying to kick this stupid cold... Rave: received a job offer yesterday with a 25% pay increase!! Super excited about it! The only downside is that I won't be able to work from home as much as I do now, but that's okay I'll make it work for a pay increase
GTKY: what is your favorite food and is it something you make yourself? So many things...
Love pizza!! Chicago style deep-dish is the only way to go - and no I don't make it. Another favorite that I do make is a broccoli, smoked turkey sausage pasta that only takes 30 minutes to make. It's a one pot dish that was featured on the Today show back in January - so good. (The recipe/video might still be posted on their website if you're looking for something healthy and easy for dinner next week.)
Edit: Found the recipe if anyone is interested in trying it - Tom Colicchio uses smoked pork, but I like turkey better so I switched it up. Enjoy
@josie12367 -- this might be due to the hormones from my recent ovulation, but I honestly teared up when I saw you got your BFP. I've been feeling pretty down about TTC these past few weeks so this really lifted my spirits. Have a H&H 9 months!!
@oandmplus1 -- we're cycle twins this time around. The freaky similarities continue
Month/Cycle: 3/3
CD/DPO: 20/3
Timing: -3, -1, +1
Testing Plans: LP has been 7 days last two cycles, so I'm just crossing my fingers for a longer one this time around. If I manage to make it to do 12DPO I'm sure I'll be peeing on all the things.
Rant/Rave/CS: Not super confident about my crosshairs, as my post-O temps aren't quite as high as they were last cycle. But if I ignore two alcohol-related temp spikes, the shift is pretty obvious, and it lines up with my CM and CP tracking. So I'll take it and maybe HIO just in case.
GTKY: what is your favorite food and is it something you make yourself? I love food, all the food. Favorite is probably any combination of carbs and cheese-- pizza, cheesy bread, cheese fries, lasagna... All of the above are much better if someone else makes them for me!
Congrats! @josie12367 I love seeing fellow PCOS'ers get their BFP!
Month/Cycle: 4/3
CD/DPO: 24/6
Timing: -2, +1
Testing Plans: 9dpo (Monday)
Rant/Rave/CS: Not much to say today. I'm just glad it's Friday and the weather looks awesome this weekend!
GTKY: what is your favorite food and is it something you make yourself? It's hard to pick one thing but I love going out to eat. I would say going to a particular Japanese steakhouse and getting hibachi and sushi is my favorite. We are planning to go next weekend for our anniversary.

Rant/Rave/CS: My temp went back up today which I was very happy about! FF says that AF is due on Sunday, but I have a fun weekend ahead to distract me. Oktoberfest tonight with a bunch of friends to celebrate DH's 30th birthday (bring on the weiner schnitzel!), a wedding tomorrow night, then good food and football all day Sunday!
GTKY: what is your favorite food and is it something you make yourself? My mom's lasagna is my absolute favorite and I do make it myself (almost as good)!
Testing Plans: AF is due today (according to FF) so if it doesn't show soon then probably later today or FMU tomorrow. My luteal phase has been 12 days for the last three months so not sure why FF is saying 13 this time!!
Rant/Rave/CS: This TWW was AWFUL! I had two days of the worst stomach flu ever. Thankfully today I am feeling better but the icing on the cake of this week will be if I get AF today ( .
GTKY: what is your favorite food and is it something you make yourself?
It is hard to choose just one thing for me....I love food I guess I would say sushi and I haven't tried to make it myself before! Definitely on my bucket list.

Rant/Rave/CS: I really wish I would have been better about temping this month; my new schedule threw everything off. I'm ready to go now though, as soon as af shows her ugly face. I'm just not feeling very confident this morning at all. All the bfn's just make me even more upset. If calculations are right, af should be showing up on Monday. I the smallest amount of spotting on Wednesday and yesterday which got my hopes up for a little bit of implantation bleeding and I definitely think I gave myself too much hope
GTKY: what is your favorite food and is it something you make yourself? My favorite food is applewurst with yukon gold mashed potatoes and sauerkraut. We have a meat market where I go and get the applewurst and it is delicious.

Testing Plans: BFN this morning
Rant/Rave/CS: This is my 4th day of spotting. My temp jumped up this morning so I POAS, but BFN. I woke up with a sore throat and stuffy nose so I think it's probably just I'm running a bit of a fever. I still plan on treating myself with a really big sugary coffee this weekend.
GTKY: what is your favorite food and is it something you make yourself? I do not have a favorite food because I have a zillion favorite foods. I love to cook and try new recipes. Some of my favorites:
Chile Colorado, Pollo en Salsa Verde, Carne Adovada, Carne Asada, Portugese Braised Eggs in Tomato Sauce, Cilantro Lime Chicken in a White Wine Sauce, Spanish Chicken in an Eggplant Tomato Sauce, Fluffy Pizza with whole milk mozzarella... I LOVE FOOD.
Congrats @josie12367!!!

Testing Plans: Another BFN this morning. I've got a feeling I'm out this cycle.
Rant/Rave/CS: nothing.
GTKY: what is your favorite food and is it something you make yourself? I love food. I have a lot of favourites. Today I'd say sushi. I've made it with my parents and it is very good, but I prefer it from a real sushi place.

Timing: -4, -2, -1, +1
Testing Plans: Holding out until the 21st - AF is due around the 20th so I'm trying to stay strong and not test too early
Rant/Rave/CS: Trying to kick this stupid cold... Rave: received a job offer yesterday with a 25% pay increase!! Super excited about it! The only downside is that I won't be able to work from home as much as I do now, but that's okay I'll make it work for a pay increase
GTKY: what is your favorite food and is it something you make yourself? So many things...
CD/DPO: 20/3
Timing: -3, -1, +1
Testing Plans: LP has been 7 days last two cycles, so I'm just crossing my fingers for a longer one this time around. If I manage to make it to do 12DPO I'm sure I'll be peeing on all the things.
Rant/Rave/CS: Not super confident about my crosshairs, as my post-O temps aren't quite as high as they were last cycle. But if I ignore two alcohol-related temp spikes, the shift is pretty obvious, and it lines up with my CM and CP tracking. So I'll take it and maybe HIO just in case.
GTKY: what is your favorite food and is it something you make yourself? I love food, all the food. Favorite is probably any combination of carbs and cheese-- pizza, cheesy bread, cheese fries, lasagna... All of the above are much better if someone else makes them for me!

Testing Plans: 9dpo (Monday)
Rant/Rave/CS: Not much to say today. I'm just glad it's Friday and the weather looks awesome this weekend!
GTKY: what is your favorite food and is it something you make yourself? It's hard to pick one thing but I love going out to eat. I would say going to a particular Japanese steakhouse and getting hibachi and sushi is my favorite. We are planning to go next weekend for our anniversary.

Testing Plans: Holding out until the 18th if AF doesn't come first.
Rant/Rave/CS: My temp went back up today which I was very happy about! FF says that AF is due on Sunday, but I have a fun weekend ahead to distract me. Oktoberfest tonight with a bunch of friends to celebrate DH's 30th birthday (bring on the weiner schnitzel!), a wedding tomorrow night, then good food and football all day Sunday!
GTKY: what is your favorite food and is it something you make yourself? My mom's lasagna is my absolute favorite and I do make it myself (almost as good)!
CD/DPO: 38/13
Timing: -4, -3, -2, O, O+1
Testing Plans: AF is due today (according to FF) so if it doesn't show soon then probably later today or FMU tomorrow. My luteal phase has been 12 days for the last three months so not sure why FF is saying 13 this time!!
Rant/Rave/CS: This TWW was AWFUL! I had two days of the worst stomach flu ever. Thankfully today I am feeling better but the icing on the cake of this week will be if I get AF today
