WTO or TWW- Monday Oct. 12th

Month/Cycle:5/4
CD/DPO: 19/0
TTC( what are you doing to "try") or TTA(when are you trying): TTA, opk... cm.. temping
Rant/Rave/Chart Stalk: Still no positive opk and it is so frustrating. My cycles are getting longer after the bcps, I am so jealous of people with short cycles. I thought I was going to O on cd 17. Don't know why... either way we were going to wait to TTC until November 15th and I thought for sure we would be waiting for AF by then... but if I keep ovulating on CD20 or later then this will be the last cycle avoiding. Although we may still avoid the week leading up to the 15th. Ugh! my mother had 48 day cycles and mine are around 32-36 ... I should count my blessings but I just wished it would be different.
GTKY: Favorite thing about Fall? Boots and leaves!

Re: WTO or TWW- Monday Oct. 12th
TTC: Sex
We're most likely out this month, it's been too crazy of a month at work for weeknight sex...
I love hoodies and the smell of fires burning when we walk through our neighborhood. The leaves are pretty but a bitch to clean up! My first year in our house I had more than 80 bags!! I've become more efficient, but it's still my least favorite chore.
TTA until late November (which, if cycles stay consistent, means early December)
Rants/Raves/etc. All's good here! Feeling less nervous and more excited about starting soon. Finally had a 10 day LP last month, perhaps due to starting PNVs?
GTKY: I just love everything about fall. The weather is perfect in October where I live. I love the leaves, sweater/fleece weather, Halloween, all of it!
CD/DPO: 10
TTC( what are you doing to "try") or TTA(when are you trying): TTC BBT, CM, BD
Rant/Rave/Chart Stalk: trying to not stress.
GTKY: Favorite thing about Fall? Nothing. I don't like fall. It's too cold. (For the record, cold = anything under 74° to me! Lol)
CD/DPO: CD27
TTC( what are you doing to "try") or TTA(when are you trying): NTNP right now
Rant/Rave/Chart Stalk: I still haven't had any sort of bleeding since going off BCP 4 weeks ago. My temperatures haven't been doing much of anything exciting... they went a little crazy over the weekend because I was on vacation and my sleeping and wine-drinking affected them so I'm hoping they stabilize again now that I'm home. **TMI** did anyone experience a large amount of EWCM and watery CM for the whole month after stopping birth control? I know it's normal to have more discharge right after stopping BCP, but I feel like a constantly have it and FF is confused about it.
GTKY: Favorite thing about Fall? This is my first fall living in Florida so I'll see how it goes... usually I love the leaves changing and the jeans and sweatshirt weather! (I'm from the Midwest)
they interview toni and she talks about how the temps don't matter as much as cm if you are TTC and how the temps matter more if you are TTA and if you make sure to have sex on a ewcm day, then you have a better chance of conceiving than if you had sex around O because sometimes the fertile mucus isn't present and the sperm cannot get there.
CD/DPO: 14
TTC( what are you doing to "try"): Daily sex, vitamins, OPKs, CM
Rant/Rave/Chart Stalk: I had a positive digital OPK yesterday and the day before, and it's negative today. So because I don't temp I'm just going to assume I ovulated yesterday (I also had telltale ovulation pain on the right side yesterday all day). Yay!! We managed to have sex every day for the past five days and we will again today, so I'm feeling hopeful!
GTKY: Favorite thing about Fall? The fresh, cool air, hot chocolate, and corn mazes!
Month/Cycle: 3/3
CD: 8
TTC( what are you doing to "try") or TTA(when are you trying): HIO EOD
Rant/Rave/Chart Stalk: Yay I am so glad I found another board to participate in! Hi everyone!, I guess this can serve as my intro to all of you ladies here
GTKY: Favorite thing about Fall? The temperature and the leaves changing color
CD/DPO: 16/0
TTC( what are you doing to "try") or TTA(when are you trying): NTNP, but already tracking some things, just not scheduling sex. BBT & CM
Rant/Rave/Chart Stalk: Went off the pill on 27th and never got my withdrawal bleed, so my FF chart and such is hard to set as it didn't have AF to start it. Got a temp dip and small rise CD12-14, but then it dropped back down, but now I've got EWCM so we'll see if I do O. I'm worried after 13 years of pills it might take a while. Kinda looking for AF just to feel "normal" again.
GTKY: Favorite thing about Fall? Hm, this fall I'm moving to FL from Chicago area (moving in 5 days), so I'm interested to see if it's pretty down there but not so freaking cold & damp as up here. Crossing fingers! Favorite thing is probably all the apple cider, corn mazes, and pretty much everything Halloween.

@RideNRunMomma I feel like we're the same haha. I went off the pill on 9/16 and still haven't any sort of bleeding at all. Since I stopped the pill at the end of a pack (when a normal person would have a period but I didn't), I put the day that I took my last pill as my period day. So now it tells me that I'm on CD28--which basically just means that I've been off the pill for 28 days for me. I'm not sure if that's the right thing to do, but it seemed to make sense to me! Also, my first 2 weeks off the pill I had So Much EWCM. I've read that this is normal coming off the pill and that your body will kind of flush it out...with that being said, I am still having a lot of EWCM at day 28 off the pill (but I'm chalking that up to my PCOS and my body just continually prepping and trying to ovulate... who knows though!).
I, also, am from the Chicago area and moved to Florida 6 months ago (wow I didn't realize it had been so long until now!). If you mind me asking, where in Florida will you be headed? I totally understand if you don't want to answer that!
@Katm89 since Amazon sells the 100 pack of OPK's, I am determined to get a positive! haha I will test every day until it darkens! I always (the last 20 days) get 2 lines, but never as dark or darker than the control. And I had never expected to talk to my mom about it, but since she came to visit and saw my thermometer and immediately went "oh are you doing natural family planning?" I just explained that I'm trying to figure out my body and she told me all of her experiences. It was surprisingly nice!
