Testing: Depending on my temp when I wake up tomorrow, I might end up doing the stupid early test tomorrow. But I didn't pee on anything this morning. Go me!
R/R/CS: oh, you know, waking up, taking your temp, fiddling with your phone while you do, and BAM. Surprise pregnancy announcement. So Imma be over here crying my eyes out, okay?
My temps keep going up! I'd mentally prepared myself for today's to be lower because of the time change, but still it goes up. So I'm hoping that's a good sign?
GTKY: Science and Math. It was pretty much always science and math.
R/R/CS: My cycles have been 35-40 days long for the last five cycles. I started spotting this morning and I'm feeling like AF is on her way. It's weird because I'm on CD27, but whatever. Tomorrows probably going to be CD1. Argh.
GTKY: What was your favorite subject in school as a kid? Science. I'm a huge nerd and have always loved the sciences, hence why I went into medicine. Chemistry was my nemesis, however.
@MrsDho11 Sorry about the surprise pregnancy announcement. I know how it stings to see one. Good luck with those rising temps and fx for a BFP when you POAS!
@clover28 What is your usual LP length? I'm sure you know this already, but it isn't the number of days in your cycle that matter, but the LP length.
Month/Cycle: 7/7
CD/DPO: 22/9
Timing: -5, 0, +1
Testing: Today I learned firsthand the evils of the indent line. I'll probably test again on Tuesday
R/R/CS: My temps have been super weird this LP. I expected today's to be low because of the time change, and it was, but my temps overall have been really low and I don't know why
GTKY: What was your favorite subject in school as a kid?
Can I say everything? I loved school. Math was my best subject, but I liked English more until high school.
CD/DPO: 18/4 Timing: -1 Testing: I don't have any plans to test right now.
R/R/CS:
GTKY: What was your favorite subject in school as a kid? Marching band? That was a class that I had. Otherwise, I would have to say English. I I am sorry about the bfn @clover28I am sorry about the surprise pregnancy announcement @MrsDho11
R/R/CS: so after I got my faint bfp Monday I was greeted with a stark white bfn Tuesday a faint bfp yesterday and another stark white bfn today. aghhhh!!!!!!!! Just want af to come now and start again, maybe my OPK was wrong and I didn't even ovulate when it says I did and I'm in for a long cycle, could you internet strangers tell me I'm pregnant then I can stop with the bsc and trust in your infinite psychic powers? Thanks.
GTKY: What was your favorite subject in school as a kid science!
@Flamingo777 Are you just using OPKs? It's quite possible you got an LH surge, but didn't end up ovulating at that time. It is weird and sounds super frustrating that you are getting some BFNs and some BFPs. I would try a different brand of pregnancy tests to see if that gives you a different results. FX that you get a darker BFP!
Testing: Every day since Thursday. Today I tested twice because I have no willpower. Tomorrow I'll spend 20 or so hours flying home and DH said it would be too much crazy to POAS on the plane...
R/R/CS: I wasn't sad about all the BFNs until today. When I was pregnant I found out on 11dpo, so some little part of me was hoping for a repeat of that today.
GTKY: Social studies was my favorite overall. I loved learning about history and different cultures. I also took a junior engineering class in middle school that was amazing. The final project was called "boat wars." We got in teams and had to build functional boats using only cardboard, glue, duct tape, and paint. Then we all put our boats in the school's pool and battled it out til the last boat floating won. We could "pirate" each other's boats where we'd jump from our boat onto someone else's and start tearing it apart, but once you fell out of a boat or your boat sank you had to get out of the pool. It was awesome
@MrsDho11 The cycle I got pregnant I had a similar steady climbing temp. I remember obsessing about it and you told me that it looked good but to not get my hopes up too much, and it did turn out to be good! I want to pass the same good juju on to you! I know this probably doesn't help the BSC, but here's hoping your temp keeps climbing and doesn't come back down for at least 9 months
@Flamingo777 Wow, that sounds agonizing. I'm sorry you're getting such weird test results. Have you tried a digital yet?

@Flamingo777 - what brand are you using for these HPTs? Frankly getting some positive and some negative sounds weird, if they're all one brand, I'd try a different one. And you're 18DPO, so a call to the doctor tomorrow might be in order. Hope things become more clear soon!

Timing/Testing: -4 and 0. Not to hopeful. Will hold out testing until the 19th it's only 9 days but with St. Pats stuff next weekend I want test just in case.
R/R/CS: I've come to the conclusion I don't like the clear blue digi. I will give it another month but will use cheapies as well just in case
@atcwag - sounds like a wonderful date night to me! @SongbirdintheCity - FX that the late O doesn't mean anything! @virginiaham - FX that the temps stay up. @viabug - Sorry that you're not feeling hopeful. Clear blue digi OPKs? I'm a fan, but I could understand not being one!

R/R/CS: For whatever reason for the 29470 time FF has adjusted my O date AGAIN causing my timing to adjust again. It doesn't matter. AF is en route regardless & I believe will be arriving this afternoon. I'll post in the AM to let y'all know if I'm heading back over to the WTO! Hoping to see NO ONE there

Testing: my tests from Amazon won't arrive until Thursday so will prob test Friday morning (11dpo)
R/R/CS: DH and I have been talking about moving back home to be near our family before we have a baby. There's positives and negatives to that. Trying to stay calm and just see what happens.
GTKY: What was your favorite subject in school as a kid? English! And Spelling! I used to do spelling bees a lot!
Testing plan: I'm going to try to wait until tomorrow to test again. (Or I will in an hour - I'm full of surprises!)
R/R/CS: I wish I knew what day I ovulated. It's my own fault. If this cycle isn't the one, I'm going to temp next time.
Not TTC related - my DH is an associate pastor at our church and the head pastor (his "boss") is not my favorite person. This morning, head pastor criticized DH for something that he did last week and it was loud enough that all of us around could hear him. I wanted to slap him on the spot. But I didn't. He does this ALL THE TIME. He had an entire week to approach him in private to talk about this. But no, let's do it so that lots of people can hear it on Sunday morning. /rant
GTKY: English and spelling! Which is funny, because math was my favorite to teach.

R/R/CS: Progesterone test again on Tuesday. It came back too low last week because I hadn't ovulated yet. Temps are climbing so I would guess the level would be good this time. If not, I'm lost. Maybe that's part of the problem, late ovulation and low progesterone. Hoping to have some answers this week. I have my silly little hopes up that this can happen for us in our last cycle before looking into treatments. Come ON body, please just work!!!!!

Sorry for the BFN's and kudos for those that are still holding out on testing! I wish I had your willpower lol
Month/Cycle: 1/1
CD/DPO: 22/7
Timing: -1,0
Testing: BFN this am because I have absolutely zero will power. I knew it would be negative but I was like eh I like to pee on things
R/R/CS: DS is finally on the mend. After 11 days straight with a fever from some sort of respiratory virus and then a double ear infection on top of that, I'm glad we seem to be on the mend and heading back towards normalcy. Thanks for the well wishes from everyone over the last couple of days
GTKY: What was your favorite subject in school as a kid? - Definitely English. I even though about becoming an English teacher at one point.
@Flamingo777 Agreed with pp. Keep peeling on all the things without shame until you feel satisfied you know one way or another!
Month/Cycle: 7/7
CD/DPO: 30/13?
Timing: either really good or just okay
Testing: done. Six days of bfns this week.
R/R/CS: Probably no one noticed, but I've been taking a bump break during this tww, just lurking and love titting. But I'm so frustrated I have to let it all out!!
So my period is "late." (yeah, yeah) My many negative pregnancy tests tell me I am not pregnant, but reaching 13 dpo when my luteal phase is usually11 days is a total mind f***. Clearly my o date is off, which is believable since I discovered my thermometer is giving wonky temps about halfway through my cycle. Sigh. So now I have hella bad pms cramps, and the knowledge that my imperfect -1, O timing is really more like -3, -2. Boo. Also, FF sucks at figuring It my o date because I have a slow rise. So I am feeling sorry for myself today. Waaah.
GTKY: What was your favorite subject in school as a kid? History...I'm a social studies teacher! (I resisted giving a lesson about the powers if the President for yesterday's gtky, lol.)
Thanks for all the replies guys, I don't temp, don't think it would work for me as my sleep is so erratic I only ever get 3 hours solid before I'm up tossing and turning. I'm also BSC and temping would drive me more insane I think. Tests were 2 first response, one neg one pos then tescos own one pos one neg soooo yeh. Digi here I come!! Lp is usually 14 days but I'm gonna go ahead and accept my OPK was wrong, I o'd late, af will arrive when she's ready and I need to calm the f**k down. Im off to london for a week on Tuesday so it'll be good to get away and if still no af or bfp off to the doctors il go! For now I'm gonna sit in a corner with my arms folded and sulk at my unpredictable body. Hmph.
@MrsDho11 sorry about the pregnancy announcement! @longliveregina sorry for the BFNs, I can only imagine how frustrating that can be
Month/Cycle: 6/6

Testing: kind of regretting not keeping anything to pee on in the house because I'm really wanting to POAS in a few days and I won't be able to get any until Saturday, which will be the same day AF is due so might not need them
R/R/CS: still trying to get over this sinus infection that is about all I have today
GTKY: What was your favorite subject in school as a kid? Definitely science, Chemistry was my favorite!
@longliveregina - huh. I don't really have anything to offer. Looks decent as an O date given the OPK and EWCM. I assume by CD24, you weren't using OPKs. Sorry for a confusing cycle!

Thanks! I really think my faulty thermometer is a lot to blame, but for all I know I really am having a weird long l.p.
Ugh, the spotting has begun. I guess tomorrow I will be joining the ladies in the wto thread. The November bmb looks awesome...hope all you ladies end up there!!!
*lurking from WTO* @beff12 that stinks about how the lead pastor is handling it Sounds like he might be one of those ones who lets pride get a bit too important for himself... hopefully your DH can have wisdom about how to deal with it (if he should talk privately with the pastor about keeping work feedback private or not)

Thanks, ladies. I’m wallowing on the couch with some hot chocolate for now.
@clover28 - So sorry for the BFN and feeling out.
@SandwichLover - FX when you test tomorrow. I’m considering tomorrow at 8dpo as well.
@JediAlly85 - Sorry for the BFN, but FX that it changes to a BFP for you!
@britters314 - ouch. Sorry for the indent line.
*hugs*
@hupp0013 - Sure, I say marching band can count as a subject!
@Flamingo777 - another follow-up question or two — what is your usual LP? And do you have a pic of your chart you’d be willing to share?
@Sparty18 - Hooray for clear O date, and that’s some impressive timing you have there! FX when you get around to testing.
@zrain - Sorry that you’ve been getting BFNs. *hugs* And thanks for the encouragement.
@LadyMillil - sorry about the spotting. *hugs*
@FrancesGrace630 - Sorry for the spotting. *hugs*

@SandwichLover; @JediAlly85; @FrancesGrace630; YAY HISTORY!

enjoy your hot choco! i'm drowning in coffee & will be drowning in wine tonite
@hupp0013; band nerds unite!
Month/Cycle: 10/10
CD/DPO: 27/12
Timing: now... -3 -1 +1 +2 ( that's actually not bad!) lol
Testing Plans: ALL OF THE WINE.
R/R/CS: For whatever reason for the 29470 time FF has adjusted my O date AGAIN causing my timing to adjust again. It doesn't matter. AF is en route regardless & I believe will be arriving this afternoon. I'll post in the AM to let y'all know if I'm heading back over to the WTO! Hoping to see NO ONE there
GTKY: History! Especially the French & Russian Revolutions, The Middle Ages & Middle Eastern Women's History. (#NERDALERT)
ME: 31 | DH: 31
Married: April 2015
TTC (BBT & FF) #1: April 2015 (Off BC: January 2015)
Fur Baby: 1 English Mastiff (Rupert)
CD/DPO: 25/6
Timing: -3,-2,-1,0,1
Testing: my tests from Amazon won't arrive until Thursday so will prob test Friday morning (11dpo)
R/R/CS: DH and I have been talking about moving back home to be near our family before we have a baby. There's positives and negatives to that. Trying to stay calm and just see what happens.
GTKY: What was your favorite subject in school as a kid? English! And Spelling! I used to do spelling bees a lot!
CD/DPO: 23/9 or 10
Timing: decent
Testing plan: I'm going to try to wait until tomorrow to test again. (Or I will in an hour - I'm full of surprises!)
R/R/CS: I wish I knew what day I ovulated. It's my own fault. If this cycle isn't the one, I'm going to temp next time.
Not TTC related - my DH is an associate pastor at our church and the head pastor (his "boss") is not my favorite person. This morning, head pastor criticized DH for something that he did last week and it was loud enough that all of us around could hear him. I wanted to slap him on the spot. But I didn't. He does this ALL THE TIME. He had an entire week to approach him in private to talk about this. But no, let's do it so that lots of people can hear it on Sunday morning. /rant
GTKY: English and spelling! Which is funny, because math was my favorite to teach.
DD born 7.27.2014
BFP 09.2015 - m/c 10.21.2015
CD/DPO: 23/5
Timing: All except -1
Testing: 10dpo and on
R/R/CS: Progesterone test again on Tuesday. It came back too low last week because I hadn't ovulated yet. Temps are climbing so I would guess the level would be good this time. If not, I'm lost. Maybe that's part of the problem, late ovulation and low progesterone. Hoping to have some answers this week.
I have my silly little hopes up that this can happen for us in our last cycle before looking into treatments. Come ON body, please just work!!!!!
GTKY: What was your favorite subject in school as a kid? Science and math.

TTC #2: April 2018 ~~ BFP: May 2018 ~~ EDD: January 2019
Month/Cycle: 1/1
CD/DPO: 22/7
Timing: -1,0
Testing: BFN this am because I have absolutely zero will power. I knew it would be negative but I was like eh I like to pee on things
R/R/CS: DS is finally on the mend. After 11 days straight with a fever from some sort of respiratory virus and then a double ear infection on top of that, I'm glad we seem to be on the mend and heading back towards normalcy. Thanks for the well wishes from everyone over the last couple of days
GTKY: What was your favorite subject in school as a kid? - Definitely English. I even though about becoming an English teacher at one point.
cd/DPO: 24/9
timing: -5, -3, -1, +1
testing: AF should be here Wednesday so I'll test on Thursday if it's needed.
R/R/CS: my temps have been steadily falling during the TWW and I don't know if this is normal for me because I usually stop temping around 5 DPO.
GTKY: I think English.
Married May 2012
TTC#1 July 2013 - July 2015 (no success)
Again TTC#1: Dec 2015
First RE visit: Feb 2016
BFP: 9/16/16 EDD:5/26/17
Month/Cycle: 7/7
CD/DPO: 30/13?
Timing: either really good or just okay
Testing: done. Six days of bfns this week.
R/R/CS: Probably no one noticed, but I've been taking a bump break during this tww, just lurking and love titting. But I'm so frustrated I have to let it all out!!
So my period is "late." (yeah, yeah) My many negative pregnancy tests tell me I am not pregnant, but reaching 13 dpo when my luteal phase is usually11 days is a total mind f***. Clearly my o date is off, which is believable since I discovered my thermometer is giving wonky temps about halfway through my cycle. Sigh. So now I have hella bad pms cramps, and the knowledge that my imperfect -1, O timing is really more like -3, -2. Boo. Also, FF sucks at figuring It my o date because I have a slow rise. So I am feeling sorry for myself today. Waaah.
GTKY: What was your favorite subject in school as a kid? History...I'm a social studies teacher! (I resisted giving a lesson about the powers if the President for yesterday's gtky, lol.)
TTC #2: April 2018 ~~ BFP: May 2018 ~~ EDD: January 2019
Crosshairs turned dotted yesterday I think because ff noticed this is an extra long lp
********TW: ds
Plus temps are rocky because I am way sleep deprived and not temping at the same time every morning. My son still night nurses.
Tests were 2 first response, one neg one pos then tescos own one pos one neg soooo yeh. Digi here I come!!
Lp is usually 14 days but I'm gonna go ahead and accept my OPK was wrong, I o'd late, af will arrive when she's ready and I need to calm the f**k down.
Im off to london for a week on Tuesday so it'll be good to get away and if still no af or bfp off to the doctors il go!
For now I'm gonna sit in a corner with my arms folded and sulk at my unpredictable body. Hmph.
Good of luck to everyone else in the TWW!!! Xxxxx
@longliveregina sorry for the BFNs, I can only imagine how frustrating that can be
Month/Cycle: 6/6
CD/DPO: 24/8
Timing: -4, -2, 0
Testing: kind of regretting not keeping anything to pee on in the house because I'm really wanting to POAS in a few days and I won't be able to get any until Saturday, which will be the same day AF is due so might not need them
R/R/CS: still trying to get over this sinus infection that is about all I have today
GTKY: What was your favorite subject in school as a kid? Definitely science, Chemistry was my favorite!
edit to add: no TW needed for DS!
TTC #2: April 2018 ~~ BFP: May 2018 ~~ EDD: January 2019
