@aliciabhen, sorry that it's going to be such a late night tomorrow, but it sounds like tomorrow will be a bit easier. @sldp123, it's so hard to stick to testing plans...I'm sure I'll probably end up testing earlier than I intend to as well. @Sparty18, sorry about what seems to be impending AF. Sorry that you will most likely miss your FW next cycle; hopefully, you will O either earlier or later than usual. Hugs. @khbear, I'm actually with your DH...I don't like eggnog either. Though my Aunt has made it on occasion. @HurricanAmelia, sorry that you are having a hard time with the birth of your friend's second child...it's always hard when we feel like the people closest to us are passing us by (in a way). Be kind to yourself. @l9i, I love Christmas with my extended family as well, though we typically do our big celebration on Christmas day. @houseofsetters, sorry that your intern is keeping you away from the bump, but yay for it keeping you busy during the BSC time that we all lovingly refer to as the TWW. @pretzel2plus1, the high temps sound promising for sure. Good luck this cycle. @1017Shannon, sorry that you are having a rough time right now. Hugs. @BecauseLove, we still do family vacations too...it's a lot of fun to get together with extended family for a few days or a week, though we typically end up somewhere less exotic than Mexico. Hope that you all enjoy Europe! @Lecool, I'm sorry that things have been so stressful at work...hopefully, things will calm down for you soon. @juliebeann, sorry that you are having so much cramping and backaches early in your cycle. @DiFazette, I might need to suggest how your family does Christmas presents to mine this year...sounds like a lot of fun. @Buthayna, good luck this cycle. @NurseMarie9, my temps have been really low this cycle as well, so I can totally commiserate. @thj101, that sounds like a great tradition between you and your DH. I kind of envy it a bit personally. @KarliQ88, enjoy NYC. I love that place! Plus it will be a good distraction from the is the most anxious, at least for me, part of the TWW. @Heatho620, I think I need to get you and DH to come cook for our holiday events...we always have the same things over and over. I love some of the traditional items, but changing it up would be good too, @canavara, sounds like you've been a bit of a nomad? What's your favorite place/experience? @samajane19, hope that the Provera kick starts AF for you soon. @mrsdee15, it has been forever since I've seen the Muppet Christmas Carol...so good. @babymish, sorry about the BFN @MamaMunn, my chart this cycle is all kinds of screwed up. Not sure if it is me or my thermometer, but something is just not good. @Sugargirl1019, I'm also solidly in the drink til it's pink camp. @TheJerilu, I much prefer the TWW to WTO as well. @Kay6519, I love getting gifts for the four legged members of our family as well...they are always so excited by what they get. @QueenDaenerysT, glad that your LP seems to be lengthening up. @LinzRunz, glad that your DH is being more supportive of the temping/charting thing. @AMGReely, I love New Orleans!
Thanks @Sparty18. Hopefully, they'll be able to get back to me this week with the results...for the CD3 testing, I think I had the info back in a couple of days, so hopefully the trend will continue.
Testing: tested today even though I'm positive it's way too early. BFN. But if I O'd around when I think I did, I'm around 3-5 DPO.
R/R/CS: SS like a motherf*cker. My boobs are just a tiny bit sore, which could be anything, but now I'm like I'm KU! Then I realize how ridiculous I'm being and get upset because then I think I'm not KU, and it's all a big emotional cycle lol.
GTKY: What is your favorite tradition? Hm, I don't have many. But for birthdays, my family always wakes each other up early in the morning with cards and singing and even though we know it will happen, I still love waking up to it.
@thj101 I love your Mexican restaurant tradition! Those weekly or monthly times with DH are so important.
@khbear I have no experience with Mucinex, so I'm no help there, but the FAM vs. Advanced settings in FF give me different O dates this cycle, as well. I'm going with the earlier one for now, but I might change if I go past my normal LP length.
@H4apartyof5, that's exactly how holidays are with DH's family. His whole family crams in one house, and man, they are loud! lol. It's so much fun, though!
@sugargirl0109 I know a couple of people have already responded to your question, but I just wanted to add that the change in hormones to progesterone for the second part of my cycle usually makes me a little nauseated for a couple of days. It's definitely not related to actual pregnancy, but I've just noticed that for the last couple of cycles.
Me: 26, H: 28
Married since 2012
TTC #1 since July 2015 **TW**
Laparoscopy and Endometriosis dx February 2016
HSG and SA all clear! September 2016 Testing with RE October 2016 BFP 11/5/2016 ~ EDD 7/19/2016
CD/DPO: 21 / 3dpo positive OPK on Fri, I think I was Sat
Timing: -5, -3, -1, +2 (+2 just in case )
Testing Plans: no plans, I will wait till CD 35 or so, my cycles range from 31 to 39
R/R/CS: doing pretty good today. Enjoying a quiet night and some wine while H is volunteering with 4h robotics competition
GTKY: What is your favorite tradition? H and I have had the tradition of "little christmas" where we open our presents to eachother probally a week before Christmas. Then real Christmas is spent with either my family or in laws. I did it growing up with my family and it was always my favorite time, crazy families and lots of stress trying to make time with everyone growing up but little Christmas was always calm and fun
@Sugargirl1019 It's ok to take Tylenol during the TWW for cramping. My RE told me to avoid ibuprofen and Aleve. Low heat settings on a heat pad or a warm, not hot, bath are also okay.
Hi, I'm Crystal and this is my first time posting on the tww board.
Month/Cycle: 7/5 (stupid irregular cycle)
CD/DPO: 21/7
Timing: -2, 0, +1
Testing: Ovulation app (I dont know how to abbreviate that), CM- will not take HPT until I miss AF.
GTKY: What is your favorite tradition?- I love Christmas cards and post them in my home until the next holiday season. People come over in like July, and always comment about my tacky cards still being up!! Oh well, they make me smile!
Maybe by the next post I'll figure out how to have one of those neat signatures that everyone has.
