@MandyBeeSLP the temps almost look too perfect cause my "normal" is very up and down and this is unusual. I guess wondering if I'm finally regular or what. Idk what could make my temps "even out" this cycle.
Rant/Rave/Chart Stalk: I'm finally in TWW *woohoo*
GTKY: What's your favorite cake flavor? Tiramisu... UO here: I never liked caked growing up and I always get a fruit tart for my birthday instead. American cake is usually gross. I've only had good cake abroad or from this one specialty French baker in the city.

Testing plans: I've always had in my head that I'll not test until the 26th but ovulated a lot later this month. However,....that's still my aim!
Rant/Rave/Chart Stalk: I now have my CH and am really happy with out timings this month.
However, we were in two minds about trying this month because I'm bridesmaid next June. According to my FF I'll be due a few days after the wedding! I'm not in two minds this month, I'm still so excited about getting pregnant and I know this month my husband is starting to talk about it a lot more and getting excited. However, I'm dreading having the conversation with my friend as she just doesn't get it!
GTKY: What's your favorite cake flavor? I love banana cake
Rant/Rave/Chart Stalk: Got my DPO 5 dip today. Happens every cycle on DPO5. Uhh, feels like this TWW is taking eons. I think it has to do with when FF originally said CD19 was my O date, not CD21. So I feel like I should be 8 DPO. Going to Busch Gardens tomorrow with the fambam, pretty excited.
Also, for some reason I have really NOT been in the mood for sex for the past week. DH is unhappy about this, lol. I just can't seem to get in the mood. I'm like... ugh.
GTKY: What's your favorite cake flavor? If we're talkin' cheesecake... White Chocolate Raspberry!
Rant/Rave/Chart Stalk: I'm on day 4 of flu like symptoms and yesterday was by far the worst (chills, achiness, the whole 9)! Starting to worry that high temps are related to that and not a BFP.....

It has been days of weeping, grumpiness, cramping and extra CM. Plus the nausea. Which isn't a usual one for me. I'm sure it is just my uterus taunting me... That seems likely, right? GTKY: What's your favorite cake flavor? I don't like cake... But I enjoy baking root beer float cupcakes.
Bubblegum5586 I would test CD 11 if you are going to part take in drinking. I personally would feel bad if you I was pregnant and drinking. Or you could have some extra drinks if it is a BFN. But then again you could get a BFN on CD 11 and a BFP on CD 12. You never know. It's kind of a pickle, but I would test CD 11 just to make sure.
Month/Cycle: 3/3

Testing plans: Maybe next Friday or Saturday depending on how my temps look.
Rant/Rave/Chart Stalk: I have dotted CH but I was reading the detailed interpretation on FF and its says that I O'd between CD 17 and CD 20. So I'm guessing that is why I have dotted CH. I was hopefully this cycle but not so much anymore. But it's great to see all of the BFP's this month!

Well... I really don't know. I don't have your other charts to look at, by mine this cycle were different than last cycle, but I've only been temping 2.5 months. Sorry I'm no help.

Month/Cycle: 4/4
CD/DPO: 14/1
Timing: -5 -3 -2 -1 0
Testing plans: My future BIL is visiting so I'm going to start testing right at 10DPO (the day he arrives) so that I can join in (or hopefully not) on activities without worrying. Another cool thing about that week is it was our original wedding week before we had to postpone due to my father's health. I was kind of dreading the week... not my BIL's visit but more just experiencing the week and knowing I'm not getting married and it being another reminder of my father's ailing health.
Rant/Rave/Chart Stalk: First day of 2ww. Every cycle I temped, I O'd right at CD13 so it's amazing to see my body is actually like clockwork. I even know my coverline is around 97.7 so I know anything close or above 98 is always a post O temp, or I'm on my period. Just in case this high temp is a fluke, I'll HIO till I get CH's on Saturday. Here's to a quick 2ww! I have so much going on but I KNOW this is all that I'm going to be thinking about, especially with my excellent timing...I have NEVER gotten an excellent score on FF. I feel like I got an A+ in class! <--nerd alert!
GTKY: What's your favorite cake flavor? Cheesecake. is that a flavor? All the cheese cake. in my mouth. all day. every day.
Congratulations and H&H 9 months to everyone who got a BFP! I'd tag everyone, but my computer clicker thing isn't working so well, so that would take me like half an hour.
I'm so excited for everyone! It seems like September is an awesome month for the group!!
@hboaz- hang in there girl!! Good things come to those who wait. Try to do something you couldn't do if you got a BFP or something you wouldn't be able to do as easily with a LO. Hugs to you.
@thesinga- I would say that it looks like FF is right because your temps are the highest they have been for the whole month.. FX crossed for you!!
@Lsalvag1- your chart looks right to me but I'm a rookie to all of this as well. but it looks pretty accurate to me.
@BakerBird525- I'm so sorry. I hope that you guys start seeing some positive results sooner than later. Hugs to you.
@adiaz132003- Personally I'd wait to test but that's just me. I got a BFN @ 9 DPO and that put me in a funk for the whole weekend on my 1st month temping.
@NamelessAria- I'd wait it out to test, especially if you don't want people asking you why you are upset or not in a good mood.
@racklerooo- Your timing was most excellent. FX crossed for you!!
@bubblegum5586- personally I'd wait to test but I don't like seeing BFN's.
@redheadbride15- hang in there!! The temping gets a little easier the more you do it. Have you tried vaginal temping?
@noelietrex- Sorry about the BFN. I'd order a BBT from walmart.com. They will deliver it to the store for free. Mine was $6 total. I also would personally recommend starting with $1 store OPKS. Wondfo's don't always turn for everyone. They don't turn for me (although I haven't been using them in the afternoon and apparently that's the recommended time to use them, but I can't not drink anything for 2 hours either. I've heard mixed reviews on that as well as what time of day you are supposed to actually use them) I haven't gotten a definite positive on a Wondfo though.
@kmd0501- I'd totally get any testing done that you can that is not going to any extremes. I'm going to get some testing done myself if we don't get a BFP this cycle. But I had a physical done last month and they checked my thyroid then. you have to be your own advocate!
@missthumpa- I've been anxious too about plans and if we get a BFP this month and how it would affect things but a baby is my priority now. And my debating is a little different than yours. Our anniversary is coming up and DH wants to go away but that would more than likely involve drinking. I wouldn't know for sure if we got lucky this month until right before our anniversary. Makes it kind of hard to plan things.....H's been getting excited/anxious I think over here too. he though also thought it was going to happen right away.
@motherofducks- I'm sorry that you are feeling like AF is on her way....Have you taken a HPT just to be sure?? That may make you feel better?
@raesmith9- it may take another day or 2 of temps for FF to give you the solid CH. Just keep temping
Month/Cycle: 5/3rd month temping
CD/DPO: 22/ 3DPO
Timing: -2, 0, +1, +2
Testing plans: I will wait it out until temps drop. My first BFN on my first month temping was hard. And I've been fortunate that my temps have dropped and then AF usually has shown that day. So I'll hope for that pattern to continue at least.
Rant/Rave/Chart Stalk: I'm not feeling 100% confident I should be here just yet, but FF gave me solid CH today. I'll feel better tomorrow if temps are high still. Little gun shy from last month (anovulatory cycle). I also am not confident about our timing this month. It wasn't bad, but I feel like it could have been better. Already got plans in mind for next month if this month is not our month. I'm ok with it not being this month too, I've really been wanting to get back into working out. Have not been happy with me and I started some physical therapy today so I'm hoping in the next 2-3 weeks to get back on track. And next week is going to be crazy......it will help this time go quickly I hope. I live in Richmond, VA and there is a huge bike race in town that will affect my work schedule and traffic patterns and life in general. Its basically the Olympics of bike racing, so its a pretty big deal. 2 of my direct co-workers are out next week as we were advised that if we had vacation to take we should/could then because of the craziness that will be going on around my building and my commute. I didn't have enough vacation. So I'll be working approx 9-10 hour days and be off on Friday.....Yuck. Thankful though that hopefully the week will fly by.
GTKY: What's your favorite cake flavor? I'd say Tres Leche......yum
@MNturnsVA -- I would... But I would have to run to the store. Laziness is winning out. Ha. Maybe I ought to anyway. CP is high and soft. So I'm doubting my initial feeling of being out anyway...
@motherofducks- if you are 13 DPO if you have a pretty "normal" LP I would totally take a test!! The anxiety of the waiting for AF would make me crazy.....and i would think you are far enough you would get a BFP or a BFN by now.....
@MNturnsVA I feel like I'm getting the hang of temping and I was actually amazed at how well it worked last cycle (I had my doubts), but this cycle my schedule has been wacky - I went on two backpacking/camping trips and chose just not to temp those days because a) I thought the temps would not be reliable, and b) taking my temp in a tent in the middle of the woods just seemed weird. No, I haven't tried vaginal temping yet. Maybe I'll do it sometime, but for now I'm just happy not to feel weird about rolling over, hitting the snooze button, and putting a thermometer in my MOUTH first thing in the morning!

Good lord... Lol! But anyways wasn't able to temp today due to us driving through the night and sleep was very intermittent and my BBT was in the storage area. Which I was hoping to see a temp spike instead of it staying the same, guess I'll have to wait til tomorrow!

Rant/Rave/Chart Stalk: Do people post these daily? I'm new to this, but it's definitely therapeutic.
GTKY: What's your favorite cake flavor? Chocolate or spice cake. This question is making me think of CupCake wine, which is making me think about which wine I should get this month when AF comes.... something to go with sushi, because I'm definitely going to need a sushi date if this month is a BFN.

Rant/Rave/Chart Stalk: It literally took every single ounce of my will power not to take a test this morning. I'm waiting for a supposed AF on Monday and I wanted to wait until I'm actually late to take a test. I have a really hard time seeing the negatives so I try not to go through that if I don't have to. Here's to hoping I can make it through the weekend without killing somebody!! )

Rant/Rave/Chart Stalk: Kinda same temps the last three days. And just like 0.02 degrees above cover line. But above is above I guess. Sliiggghhtt cramps again today (severe cramps two days ago) but not strong at all. Who knows, not normal for me at all. But begging AF to stay far away.

well then the bump is a great place for you. for those of us who like to do silly things to pass the time during the tww, countdowntopregnancy.com is another source. Fertility Friend even has a symptom spotting by dpo feature. You can even find other charts that look like yours that resulted in pregnancy. it doesn't mean anything, but its fun.
Sorry to jump to a rude reply to you. :-( that's my fault. I see what you are saying and can understand how that would make the time go faster.

CD/DPO: 32/11
Timing: -3,-1,O
Testing plans: Ugh I don't even know anymore
Rant/Rave/Chart Stalk: It literally took every single ounce of my will power not to take a test this morning. I'm waiting for a supposed AF on Monday and I wanted to wait until I'm actually late to take a test. I have a really hard time seeing the negatives so I try not to go through that if I don't have to. Here's to hoping I can make it through the weekend without killing somebody!!
GTKY: What's your favorite cake flavor? Definitely plain white cake with plain white icing! I hate chocolate so the basic sheet cake from grocery stores is my dream come true
Month/Cycle: 1
CD/DPO: 22/10
Timing: -5, -3, -2, -1, 0
Testing plans: will try again in the morning.
Rant/Rave/Chart Stalk: Wednesday I was dumb and tested at 8 dpo and got a slight squinter. Yesterday I didn't test. This morning bfn. Ugh so yeah don't know what's up but pretty sure my squinter was nothing. Gonna keep testing each morning till af comes. I won't test earlier than 10 dpo again, learned my lesson for sure.
GTKY: What's your favorite cake flavor? Chocolate! Give me all the chocolate!
Month/Cycle: Years trying, 2/2 temping again
CD/DPO: 23/3 (yay for crosshairs!)
Timing: -4, -2, 0
Testing plans: None unless I'm late.
Rant/Rave/Chart Stalk: I feel like I might be more productive at life if I didn't stare at my chart like it holds all the answers to the universe.
GTKY: What's your favorite cake flavor? If it looks, smells, or tastes like a cake, it's probably my favorite. I don't discriminate. Although, the snickerdoodle cake we had at our wedding was pretty amazing...

Month/Cycle: 6
CD/DPO: 25/6
Timing: -3,-1,O
Testing plans: 10dpo. I will wait. I will wait. Ok, I probably won't wait. Too many wondfos and too much time to convince myself that I'm a speshul snowflayke that would have an early positive. Ha.
Last LP was only 9 days, so I am just hoping to make it to 10 without AF.
Rant/Rave/Chart Stalk: Kinda same temps the last three days. And just like 0.02 degrees above cover line. But above is above I guess. Sliiggghhtt cramps again today (severe cramps two days ago) but not strong at all. Who knows, not normal for me at all. But begging AF to stay far away.
GTKY: What's your favorite cake flavor? Yellow with chocolate. I've only had this on every birthday of my life. However, I haven't met a cake that I don't like.
