hanshotfirst77 · April 2016

Month/Cycle: 6/5

CD: 16

WAYDTGKU: PNVs, Met, Temping, OPKS, all the BD.

R/R/CS: My temps are driving me crazy this cycle. Last cycle my chart was beautiful and it was so clear. This one my temp just keeps going up and down and confusing the hell out of me. So yesterday was my peak OPK and I also had a fairly large temp spike. Then this morning it dipped back down. FF thinks ovulation is going to be today but I was fairly sure it was going to be Saturday or Sunday. I guess either way we are covered, we have BD the last 5 days in a row. But we are exhausted and if O is today then I feel like we have to keep HIO just in case. I'd hate to stop now and then O really is today or tomorrow or something and we missed it.

GTKY: If you could live the life of one TV show/Movie/Book/whatever character for a predetermined period of time who would you chose and why?:

I would totally be Han Solo. Its probably no surprise by now I am a total Star Wars nerd. Han Solo has always been my favorite character. I would love to be flying the Millennium Falcon and have a wookie best friend, travelling through space helping Jedi, Save the princess, fight the empire!

Month/Cycle: 3/3 ATTC (11/6 NTNP)

CD: 10

WAYDTGKU:

R/R/CS: I'm not super excited about it being Monday! I did make an awesome fried "rice" with cauliflower last night though! So good. Also, 8 more days of Whole 30!

GTKY: If you could live the life of one TV show/Movie/Book/whatever character for a predetermined period of time who would you chose and why?:
I always say I'd love to be Elizabeth Bennett, but you know, with all the modern conveniences. Anytime I watch something set back in time (we're watching Outlander now) and talk about wishing I'd lived then, H remarks on how I never would have made it without indoor plumbing, electricity, etc. And He's totally right.

NamelessAria · April 2016

Month/Cycle: 9/8

CD: 15

WAYDTGKU: Charting, temping, saliva microscope, OPKs, BDing when possible, checking cm/cervix, whatever I'm forgetting

R/R/CS: My temp went up this morning by an impressive (read: I'm not impressed) 0.27. It's one of those temps where I could have not O'd yet or I may have O'd. I won't know till I get more temps. Although, if I didn't O then the positive OPK and peak on the Advanced digi OPK were clearly lies since that was back on CD12.

Also a small rant: every time DH would have some free time yesterday between work stuff and I'd think "oh good. now we have time to BD!" he'd log on that stupid video game to just "do something really quick!" and end up "needing" to do some guild quest in the game for imaginary guild contribution points so random internet weirdos would approve or something? And no BDing happened.

GTKY: If you could live the life of one TV show/Movie/Book/whatever character for a predetermined period of time who would you chose and why?:

I'm still thinking about this. You'd think I'd know since it's my GTKY question but no.

@houseofsetters I'm right there with you on loving the historical/historical fiction shows and movies. DH and I always have pretty much the same conversation about how I'd love to live back then and then DH is like "...really? You won't even go camping for the weekend without complaining. And you think you'd want to sign up for no more plumbing, heat/air, electricity, etc. for the rest of your life? Ha!"

kellybean1988 · April 2016

Morning, friends! I have plenty of time to get responses in today, yay!

Month/Cycle: 4

CD: 16

WAYDTGKU: RL tea, PNV, CM, BBT, pre-seed, HIO EOD

R/R/CS: Welp, my temp is back down this am, so I guess yesterday's temp rise was just a weird thing (I hadn't had alcohol the night before). So, I guess I didn't O on CD 14 like a normal person...oh well. My O is usually between CD16 and CD21 so hopefully it'll show up soon!

GTKY: If you could live the life of one TV show/Movie/Book/whatever character for a predetermined period of time who would you chose and why?:

Ooooh, this is a great question! I think I would choose to be a hobbit from the Shire in the Hobbit/LOTR universe
(maybe Rosie, who marries Samwise Gamgee?). Those cozy hobbit holes are amazing and they live a pretty simple and care-free life. Plus, they get to eat like 10 times a day. I'm in.

thj101 · April 2016

Month/Cycle: 1/2

CD: 7

WAYDTGKU: All the things........

My BBT comes in the mail today (finally, thanks for the delay Amazon) so I will start my temping journey tomorrow morning!

R/R/CS: As most of you may know by now, I have a regular full time job, and I also have a side home interior/design/décor business... I got a TON of things done this weekend for my show, and was grateful for that, but am now super tired. It's times like these where I think, I really should just pick one career and go with it. I am exhausted.

GTKY: If you could live the life of one TV show/Movie/Book/whatever character for a predetermined period of time who would you chose and why?: I would say Carrie Bradshaw... and Sex and the City movie Carrie Bradshaw, not SATC tv show Carrie Bradshaw... Love the show to pieces, but I feel like Carrie's character really grew into what everyone wanted her to be all along in the movie.

picklesplease · April 2016

Good morning, all!

Month/Cycle: 8/7

CD: 15

WAYDTGKU: PNV, diet, exercise, BD EOD

R/R/CS: We missed a couple of days this weekend because my allergies kicked into high gear and I felt like death. Plus, DH didn't want to touch me with all the snot coming out of my nose. We're going to try to BD one more time before I go to Baltimore this week for a work trip. We're missing my FW while I'm gone! GAH!!! Also, my thermometer is officially broken. I tried taking my temp 3 times this morning and they were the same. So I'm not even sure if I will O this cycle because I missed temps this weekend. I'm going to switch to my Mabis tomorrow morning, but I have to get up at 3am to make it to my 6 am flight. This whole week is going to be a mess. But I can't wait to go to Baltimore!

GTKY: If you could live the life of one TV show/Movie/Book/whatever character for a predetermined period of time who would you chose and why?:
I would want to be either Lorelai or Rory Gilmore from the Gilmore Girls. I would love the ability to eat whatever I wanted without gaining a point and still be thin and gorgeous. lol! Plus they have access to all the coffee. I know a lot of you cut out caffeine from your diets, but I've tried it and my migraines are worse when I consume no caffeine. I also pretty much cannot function...plus, I just love coffee...

felix08 · April 2016

Month/Cycle: 8/8

CD: 2

WAYDTGKU: Lots of things that do not work. Does anyone else feel like the more things you are actively doing each cycle, the more disappointing AF is?

R/R/CS: I have a lot I could rant about, but I'll refrain. I'm trying to leave my pity party.

GTKY: If you could live the life of one TV show/Movie/Book/whatever character for a predetermined period of time who would you chose and why?: Aah I don't even know. I'd like to live a rich and famous lifestyle momentarily just to experience it, but I can't think of a specific character at the moment.

NamelessAria · April 2016

@BerkeBaby That picture is AMAZING. I almost died laughing when I saw it so DH looks over like "what is so funny!?" I show it to him and he starts laughing and says "I haven't had coffee yet and that is exactly how I feel. Actually can you send that to me? I want to email it to my employees."

Haha! It pretty much sums up my life without coffee. Even my students know it's a bad idea for me to miss my morning cup...s...of coffee. I walked in one day without it and it was a big ol' mess. I could barely even talk, plus I had a nasty migraine that kicked in, so I had to leave work early. Never again. lol!

Edited...because words are hard when I haven't finished my first cup of coffee.

Lecool · April 2016

@JediAlly85 FX for your O soon!

@houseofsetters I love cauliflower rice! Have you tried cauliflower crust pizza? SO GOOD.

@NamelessAria My H does the same type of thing, except he goes and works in the yard. He says he just wants to "mow the lawn really quick" and he's out there for six hours. I do not get it.

@kellybean1988 FX for your O soon! And I love your answer. I'd love to be a hobbit, because I too like to eat multiple breakfasts.

@thj101 Glad you got a lot done! It's so nice to feel like you were productive at the end of the weekend, even if you're exhausted afterwards.

@BerkeBaby Sorry about your allergies and missing your FW. But have fun in Baltimore! Also, I hear you on the caffeine thing. I said on the nutrition thread that I am trying to reduce caffeine intake. But I still drink 1 cup a day (and that was really hard to get down to). This Seattle girl cannot be parted with coffee.

Month/Cycle: 6/6

CD: 8

WAYDTGKU: Temping, EPO, OPKs starting CD10

R/R/CS: I re-read TCOYF over the weekend, and it's got me a little concerned about my LP. It varies a lot more than it should (between 10-15 days, leaning more towards 10-11 days), and is on the short side. The last few cycles I've started spotting at 9DPO. I have my annual appointment with my OB next month, so I guess I'll bring it up with her then and see what she says. I know that 10 is on the low end of the average, so it's still in the normal range, but I guess I just needed a new thing to have anxiety about.

GTKY: If you could live the life of one TV show/Movie/Book/whatever character for a predetermined period of time who would you chose and why?: Oh, this is a good one.

I think I would choose to be a random witch in the Harry Potter universe. I was going to say Hermione Granger, but I don't know if I would want to be caught up in Harry's drama. Basically, I just want to go to Hogwarts, learn spells, and have a pet owl.

kfair001 · April 2016

I’ve been a little MIA that last couple of days. Busy busy busy but also nicely distracted! FX that I can get back later for comments!

Month/Cycle: 6/5

CD: 15

WAYDTGKU: BBT, OPK, FF, PNV+DHA, BD ED/EOD in FW, Pre-seed

R/R/CS: Still no positive OPK which isn’t shocking because I’ve never turned an OPK. I’m so annoyed with this whole checking cm. I just don’t get it. It all looks the same to me. I’ve done so much research but my stuff just looks nothing like what I’m seeing on the internet. Not really sure why. I literally have creamy pretty much all the time. Maybe sometimes egg white but who knows it could be creamy. Not a clue… Can’t wait for Monday to be over.

GTKY: If you could live the life of one TV show/Movie/Book/whatever character for a predetermined period of time who would you chose and why?: Hmm this one is tough and requires time to think which I unfortunately don’t have today so I’ll go with Wonder Woman. Because who wouldn’t want to be a badass superhero!

NamelessAria · April 2016

@BerkeBaby Yeah that pretty much sounds like DH without coffee also.

Also, I was so distracted by the amazing owl picture that I didn't read the rest of your post. I'm sorry that you haven't felt well and that you're missing your FW.

Lots of creepy internet hugs.

kellybean1988 · April 2016

Also, maybe I should start a separate thread...but this was me after watching last night's season finale of The Walking Dead:

HurricaneAmelia · April 2016

Month/Cycle: 7

CD: 1

WAYDTGKU: Nothing that seems to be working. Our timing was perfect last month, I was SO convinced I was pregnant. I am usually pretty level headed each month w/my expectations, but this month was pretty bad.

R/R/CS: I decided I am going to take this cycle to focus on being more healthy. I want to cut back on drinking and eating out, and lose 10 lbs so that when I one day do get pregnant I am at a better place health-wise. I really just need something to focus on so I don't obsess over baby making.

GTKY: If you could live the life of one TV show/Movie/Book/whatever character for a predetermined period of time who would you chose and why?: hmmmm, probably Vince from Entourage, so I could see what it was like to be famous.

sammajane19 · April 2016

Month/Cycle: 6/4

CD: 8

WAYDTGKU: Metformin and not much else right now

R/R/CS: I haven't been posting much since there hasn't been a whole lot going on. But today is my first RE appointment! I'm excited. I wonder what my RE's thoughts will be on temping. (My OB doesn't like temping and told me to stop.) Anyway, hopefully it'll go well - I'm thinking (or hoping anyway) that he'll want to start me on Clomid or similar for next cycle.

GTKY: If you could live the life of one TV show/Movie/Book/whatever character for a predetermined period of time who would you chose and why?: If I could transport back in time and be Lady Mary or Cora on Downtown Abbey, I would! Love the clothing, the etiquette, the opulence of it all. Of course, living that way day to day would probably be pretty hard - no women's rights, no modern healthcare, etc. etc., but for a short while I'd love it.

gonetothesea · April 2016

Month/Cycle: 9/8

CD: 4

WAYDTGKU: charting, temping, PNV

R/R/CS: It was so hard to get up this morning. My DH installed black out curtains in our bedroom at my request, but now when I wake up, I am so disoriented because I still think it's night time and then I am bummed when it hits me that it is indeed time to get up. Haha.

GTKY: If you could live the life of one TV show/Movie/Book/whatever character for a predetermined period of time who would you chose and why?: Hmm.. probably Leslie Knope from Parks and Recreation. She's the type of woman I aspire to be.

Dilynne · April 2016

Month/Cycle: 1/1

CD: 24

WAYDTGKU: All the things - except now my Mabis and OPKs are arriving today and I'm super pumped.

R/R/CS: I'm getting a hang of this temping thing thanks to all ya'll.

GTKY: If you could live the life of one TV show/Movie/Book/whatever character for a predetermined period of time who would you chose and why?: Penelope Garcia from Criminal Minds.

NamelessAria · April 2016

@HurricaneAmelia I'm sorry about CD1.

Not last month but the month before I had the same thing happen. It was the only month DH and I got -2, -1, O and managed to have "high" for our timing on FF so I was really overly hopeful. Plus my post-O temps looked amazing. I was really crushed when my period showed because I'd really let myself believe that would be our cycle.

I think your plan to focus on getting into better health habits and such is a wonderful idea. Lots of creepy internet hugs.

ladystinson · April 2016

Warning, rambing R/R/CS ETA Temping/charting

Month/Cycle: 6/6

CD: 3

WAYDTGKU: Temping/charting, starting OPK's again and more consistently, HIO EoD once AF is gone, pineapple core, eating honey and cinnamon (actually this sounds really good on a bagel right now...), praying... oh! and fertility dancing, digging a whole under a full moon, tying a fertile hen to my bed post, you know... the usual lol

R/R/CS: So this was the first time that I had a really hard time not being KTFU. I mean, I'm disappointed every month, but I know how long it can take and whatnot so I've tried to stay up beat and patient... This weekend that just didn't happen. FF took my CH's the morning before AF started, at first it told me I O'd on CD 14, then it moved to CD 27, based on my usual LP I'm placing my bet on CD22 which would have meant good timing. But I'm thinking that, with all the sickness and meds I just had an anovulatory cycle. Then, I missed my nephews birthday party because of craziness over the weekend (its my best friend's son, but she's more like my sister and my family is the only 'family' she has. of course she has her DH and his family, but we're basically it for her) so I felt terrible and she was busy so when I texted her (I knew she was busy at the party at a very loud bouncy place so there was no point in calling) she didnt respond right away, so my hormonal guilt-riddled self 'just knew' that she was mad at me (she wasn't) so add that to the stress of speed-fixing the last few things for the 'Best Interest Lawyer' inspection any day now and CD1... I turned into a basket case. DH was so sweet and supportive, he just held me and let me have a good cry. He told me that he was sad too, but that we're in it together and will be no matter what. We have decided to look into blood testing for me and SA for him since they're easy steps and we wont be taking RE appointments from anyone. DH has had 2 injuries that could lead to TTTC so we would rather find out sooner than later.
Also, 'Bagels' apparently was just the worst PMS I've ever had. And I have to say its the first time I've ever felt like I was getting a yeast infection for no reason, I've only had one (feel free to hate me, I know I'm ridiculously lucky) but it was from antibiotics.

GTKY: If you could live the life of one TV show/Movie/Book/whatever character for a predetermined period of time who would you chose and why?: I'm a dork, I would totally want to be a hobbit lol or Arwen/Galadriel... any of those would work. Just during peaceful times though! the lord of the rings arwen petra

doctor who harry potter supernatural the lord of the rings frozen

In reality I would probably be more like Bridget Jones lol

Lecool · April 2016

@HurricaneAmelia So sorry about CD1

Last month, we had the best timing yet (-3, -2, -1), which was our first "high" rating on FF, and I had a triphasic chart. To say I was feeling hopeful was an understatement. It sucked. I think that focusing on yourself is a great idea, and will hopefully distract a bit from putting 100% of your attention of TTC. I'm trying to do the same thing. Big hugs to you.

kellybean1988 · April 2016

Ugh you guys *tw colleague’s preg announcement*

Just got on my professional work facebook account and first thing on my newsfeed was a preg announcement from a colleague at another university in our state. Excited for him and his wife but damn seeing those first thing in the AM on a Monday got me like

@JediAlly85 My temp is being wonky too. Hoping we both O soon; I love Star Wars too!

@houseofsetters Outlander has been on my watch list for a while now. Who doesn’t like sexy Scottish men in kilts? (My family’s heritage is Scottish and my DH may or may not own 3 kilts)

@NamelessAria omg your video game story! My DH is the same way, lol! Hope you get to BD soon.

@thj101 Yay for your BBT! I’m glad you got so many things done this weekend but I’m sorry you’re so tired. Here’s hoping you get to rest soon!

@BerkeBaby your profile pic made me realize that Donna Noble also would have been a good character for me to pick for today’s GTKY! I’m so sorry you weren’t feeling well this weekend, but WOOHOO BALTIMORE!

@felix08 You can throw a pity party here, we’re here for you! So sorry about CD 2. Big hugs!

@Lecool thanks! Yes, multiple breakfasts are the shiz. I think you already saw this a few days ago, but my doctor seemed to think my LP (and LPs in general) should be 14 days long to better promote implantation. I’m going to get some progesterone, in fact, this next cycle if my next LP is fewer than 14 days (it has been since I've come off BCP in late Dec '15)

@kfair001 Good to see you! I also agree that checking CM is really perplexing to me. I have trouble telling the difference between different types. Boo--the number of times I have googled "what do different types of CM look like" is embarrassing! I am ready for Monday to be over as well.

@HurricaneAmelia sorry about CD1 and that you’re having a rough time—big hugs to you. Your goal to focus on healthful living is a good one, I need to focus on that myself.

@sammajane19 FX your RE appointment is a helpful one! I think it’s so interesting that some OBs/doctors don’t like temping. Hoping your RE is impressed!

@gonetothesea I LOVE LESLIE KNOPE! She is the best and I would love to work for her.

@Dilynne So glad you’re getting the hang of temping!

@ladystinson I’m doing all those things for WAYDTGKU too, especially the fertile hen!! Lol that made me laugh. I’m so sorry you’re feeling down and having a hard TTC day. Thinking of you, big hugs your way, take care of yourself! (Love Arwen and Galadriel as well!)

Steelerfan78 · April 2016

Hi! I'm new here (just posted in Intro Thread), so I'm just going to jump right in.

Month/Cycle: 14/6

CD: 9

WAYDTGKU: PNV, OPKs, temping, charting, BD EOD/ED, Vitex

R/R/CS: I'm so glad I took the advice from this community and started temping/charting last cycle. Now I am much more confident this cycle!

GTKY: If you could live the life of one TV show/Movie/Book/whatever character for a predetermined period of time who would you chose and why?: I would say Claire from the Outlander book series. I think it would be so awesome to be able to live in 18th century Scotland. Plus, I love redheads!

picklesplease · April 2016

@kellybean1988 - I love me some Donna Noble! She was so sassy and I just love her. I should have put her, but I've been binging on Gilmore Girls this weekend. lol! I might have to change my profile picture to this one, though. I LOVE Donna!

Image: https://carboncostume.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/Donna-Noble-Character-Cap.jpg

kellybean1988 · April 2016

@BerkeBaby she is by far my fave companion, followed closely by the Ponds. 1. I love the redheads but 2. she is such a strong, hilarious, smart woman who IS NOT IN LOVE WITH THE DOCTOR. Which I really like.

LadyMillil · April 2016

Month/Cycle: 13/15

WAYDTGKU: clomid + iui#2 + progesterone

R/R/CS: IUI this afternoon

GTKY: If you could live the life of one TV show/Movie/Book/whatever character for a predetermined period of time who would you chose and why?: I can't decide between Rory Gilmore or Cristina Yang

Sparty18 · April 2016

Month/Cycle: 8/9

CD: 12

WAYDTGKU: PNVs, BBT, CM, OPK & BD

R/R/CS: So glad H is back. Temp went up a little this morning but I don't think it was a big enough jump for O so we may still have another day! I give you permission to eye roll at me for all my complaining earlier.

GTKY: If you could live the life of one TV show/Movie/Book/whatever character for a predetermined period of time who would you chose and why?:
I could totally be Rachel for a while! Who wouldn't want to be part of that group?!

juliebeannn · April 2016

Month/Cycle: 3

WAYDTGKU: temping. pnv. opk. HIO EOD starting tonight.

R/R/CS: It's Monday. Ugh. That is all.

GTKY: If you could live the life of one TV show/Movie/Book/whatever character for a predetermined period of time who would you chose and why?: mmmm....need to think about this one after some more coffee haha

Steelerfan78 · April 2016

@houseofsetters I love Outlander! My DH and I just started the TV series. Only watched a couple episodes so far. Did you read the books? I'm a little disappointed in the actress choice for Claire. Not how I pictured her at all. But, I do love the actor they picked for Jaime!

HurricaneAmelia · April 2016

@Lecool and @NamelessAria , thanks guys:) I seriously feel so alone in this whole process, I am glad there are people going through this at the same time. Well....not glad you all aren't getting pregnant, but glad there are people to talk to about how frustrating this is.

@Steelerfan3878 Welcome!

@HurricaneAmelia Sorry for CD1
@sammajane19 Good luck at your RE appointment today! Hope it all goes well and your Dr is supportive.

Also I am feeling everyone on the coffee talk! I try to narrow it down to one cup in the morning, but it is always the biggest cup I can find.

Month/ Cycle: 9/9

CD: 4

WAYDTGKU: Not much right now, just waiting around.

R/R/CS: Ugh, DH came home from work yesterday with a full on dreaded man-cold. It was like a drama in our house last night and he could have won an Oscar! Also, I am debating doing OPK this month, which I have never tried before. I don't know if I want to temp, because I didn't want to have to worry about that while we are away. I just don't know how reliable it will be..

GTKY: I don't know right now. Will try to update later.

furbabymom2007 · April 2016

CD: 22

WAYDTGKU:
Normal things

R/R/CS: FF is holding my damn CH hostage I swear to god. I had positive OPKs (both digi and cheapie), EWCM, and my normal huge temp dip pre-o. But my temps are not cooperating. Chart attached.

GTKY: If you could live the life of one TV show/Movie/Book/whatever character for a predetermined period of time who would you chose and why?:

totally eve dallas... But it would be in between big murder cases. I don't want to solve crimes, I just want to play with Roarke.

Claire Fraser is a close second... But living without modern comforts would be tough for me. I live for ice water and AC

felix08 · April 2016

@hurricaneamelia So sorry about CD1. It really is the worst--every month I tell myself that I will not let myself get down but there's just no stopping it. On a lighter note, you helped me think of the show that would allow me to live the rich and famous lifestyle!! I think I would choose to be Turtle, though, so I could live the lifestyle without the negatives (you know, like working!).

@sammajane19 good luck with the RE! Keep us updated.

@ladystinson Sorry you had a hard time this weekend. I was right there with you. I'm sure it's just my imagination, but it feels like there are babies and pregnant people EVERYWHERE on CD1. Just yesterday I was trying to watch TV but I swear all the commercials were for pregnancy tests and pampers. WTF.

@kellybean1988 It is definitely nice to have a safe place to have a pity party and not be judged! Sorry about the Monday morning pg announcement--people need to save those for weekends/holidays when we are at least somewhat expecting it!

@steelerfan3878 welcome!

ladystinson · April 2016

@HurricaneAmelia tons of creepy internet hugs. I'm so sorry you're having a hard time, I completely understand where you're coming from. I knew I was pregnant this month and was crushed when AF hit. Take car of yourself and do something to treat yourself (I painted my nails yesterday, I don't do it often and it oddly made me feel a little better)

@kellybean1988 lol glad you enjoyed the hen! I started typing the list and decided to google old superstitions, that one is Irish and when I first saw "a fertile hen, who lays many eggs..." I perked up because my parents have chickens and we're planning to get them too and I'm just that desperate lol but then I saw tied to the bed post and thought well crap.... our bed is on a raised platform with no posts to tie to

@felix08 omg I know! **TW: others newborn** A friend of mine from school has been trying with her husband for between 5-8 years (I cant remember exactly) she just gave birth to their daughter a week ago, so of course she's posted pics. Not flooding facebook, but a few professional pics they had taken at home... she's beautiful and I'm beyond thrilled for her. But I think the fact that we're dreaming of a baby girl (of course we'd be happy no matter what, but since we have our boys a little pink in our lives would be so sweet) is just making it hit so much harder.
Sigh, oh well.... another day down, another day closer to FW...

MelissaM090 · April 2016

Month/Cycle: 5/5

CD: 3

WAYDTGKU: The normal stuff.. and I started my first round of Femara this morning.

R/R/CS: Just keeping my thoughts as positive as I can for this cycle. My new round of fitness classes that I (plan) to do 3 days a week starts today. That means I'll eat heathier and drink more water, and those are all good things and will hopefully combat any side effects I may experience from Femara.

GTKY: If you could live the life of one TV show/Movie/Book/whatever character for a predetermined period of time who would you chose and why?: Oooh tough one. I'm having trouble wrapping my brain around a specific, but anything with time travel. I don't want all the pressures that come with having a 'task' but I just want to wander around and check things out

@felix08 Sorry you are feeling so down.

I completely agree that AF gets more and more disappointing the more I give to this process. Hugs to you.

@HurricaneAmelia So sorry for CD1. There is nothing more frustrating than feeling like you are doing everything you can and it not working. I hope you find some good things to focus on this month, there have been some good threads about hobbies, working out and nutrition this last week, so that is good!

@BerkeBaby Sorry you may be missing your FW.

I hope you have an awesome time in Baltimore though! We are heading there in a few weeks for a wedding.

@Lecool I've been thinking of re-reading TCOYF as well. I have my annual with my OB next Monday and feel like I need a refresher to see if there is something else I should be asking. I hope you will be able to get your answers about your LP.

@ladystinson Sorry you're having a rough time right now. Sounds like the dreaded six month slump many of us have faced.

@Steelerfan3878 Welcome! Glad you have decided to start temping, I was so thankful for this community to help me figure that all out too!

Month/Cycle: 4

CD: 15

WAYDTGKU: PNV, BBT, OPK's

R/R/CS: Got +OPK's on CD13 and 14, negative today so I think I O'd yesterday? Also had some decent cramping yesterday. Waiting on temps to confirm. Hopeful that I did because I feel like our timing was pretty good late last week and this weekend--even with our in-laws in town the whole time

GTKY: If you could live the life of one TV show/Movie/Book/whatever character for a predetermined period of time who would you chose and why?:

I would totes want to live the life of Joanna Gaines from Fixer Upper. She is seriously my spirit animal. Love her and Chip! They have my dream job.

Month/Cycle: 6/5

CD: 3

WAYDTGKU: Waiting for AF to leave.

R/R/CS: Really wish I had one more day before going back to work.

GTKY: If you could live the life of one TV show/Movie/Book/whatever character for a predetermined period of time who would you chose and why? Definitely someone in the Harry Potter universe but not one of the big 3. I think it'd be fun to be Luna.

Month/Cycle: on to month 8/3 TTCAL

CD: 2

WAYDTGKU: just waiting for AF to leave right now

R/R/CS: This last week has been so crazy with moving but somehow I still managed to convince myself I was KU and got all excited. Yesterday was horrible cramps so I spent the day in bed watching movies, not sorry after working so hard on the house.

GTKY: If you could live the life of one TV show/Movie/Book/whatever character for a predetermined period of time who would you chose and why? My brain doesn't want to function today as it's CD 2 and I'm back at work on a Monday after being off for 3 and a half days last week. I don't really know...

***TW MC mentioned***

Month/Cycle: 6 (7 months benched)

CD: 2

WAYDTGKU: nothing right now just AF. OPKs when it's time.

R/R/CS: my cycle was 32 days this time! Back to normal length! I was lurking lots last month but not posting during the TWW. Last month marked the anniversary 1 year if trying, of getting KU and subsequent MC AND I turned 30... it was a big month or me trying to stay calm. So I hope it's ok to jump back in! It's rainy and gross here today after a beautiful week.

GTKY: If you could live the life of one TV show/Movie/Book/whatever character for a predetermined period of time who would you chose and why?: I would be Anna Kenndrick from Pitch Perfect
