I was awake SO EARLY this morning (just after 4:00am my time, I usually get up at 5:45am) so I figured I may as well get this started. I have a really busy day today, so this is probably going to be me later.
Month/Cycle: 5/5
CD/DPO: 28/14
Timing: -3, -1, 0
Testing: Probably won't be necessary.
R/R/CS: I think I'm out. Temp dropped below the coverline this morning and I've been having random intermittent pains since yesterday that make me assume that AF is due any day. The good news is, I had tentative plans to go out with my mom at some point to dinner and a movie to see Mother's Day, and if AF comes, that means that mother-daughter night can include cocktails!
GTKY: What are some bad habits people have that annoy you more than anything else? My pet peeves are less about physical bad habits and more about language. Certain grammatically incorrect phrases annoy the crap out of me. An ex-boyfriend's ENTIRE FAMILY used the phrase 'alls it is' that drove me nuts with it's incorrectness. 'Oh my turkey tettrazini? Alls it is, is leftover turkey and cream of chicken soup'. Aaarghhh.
Also my boss is TERRIBLE with names. I'm constantly reminding him what people's names are and then he'll get an incorrect pronunciation stuck in his head and it's all downhill from there. He has a business acquaintance that he claims he's actually friends with who he constantly refers to as Brandon and I've said MORE THAN ONCE, 'you know his name is actually Brendan right?'. He just hired a girl named Alyssa which is baffling him. 'Ah-leesha? A-lissha?'. I've said 10 times over the last 3 days: 'What's my name?' 'Melissa'. 'Drop the M'. I feel like I need a pay raise based alone on how much effort I make so that he doesn't look like an idiot. It's infuriating.
Me: 32 DH: 33 Married: October 2015 TTC #1: October 2015 EDD #1: June/July 2017
Testing: none, waiting for AF (due in 6-7 ish days) so I can schedule HSC and get this show on the road (you know, the road I THOUGHT I was in in first 8 months of trying but apparently wasn't because of shitty ovulation and a blocked tube ). I'm over it, moving on
R/R/CS:
FRIDAY!!
GTKY: What are some bad habits people have that annoy you more than anything else?
i cant stand when people have their phone notifications on when they are sitting there messaging someone. I called my mom out on it once (and that went over like a lead balloon). "Can you turn your Sound off please?" "But how will I knowing someone messages me?" ".... You are staring at it, how would you not know?". The same goes for the key clicks in public.... I don't need to be informed each time your thumbs hit a letter dammit.
Also, related.... When people play games or watch things on devices in public and either don't turn the sound down or put on headphones. I enjoy a game angry birds like the next person, but that doesn't mean I want to listen to you play for 3 hours in the airplane seat behind me
@furbabymom2007 I'm glad you have a plan now to move forward at least!!
Edit: typos
Kind of CS requested?
Month/Cycle: 4/3
CD/DPO: 33/6
Timing: -5, -3, -1, 0
Testing:10 DPO
R/R/CS: My chart is not super reliable this month. In one version I am 10dpo, and in the other I am 6, and it all depends on one temp. I think 6 is right, which is why I've been going with it. I got my only strong positive OPK the day of this O and the day before. The other positive in my chart was a much weaker barely positive. But the day after that I had my normal decent amount of EWCM. And I got crosshairs. They were dotted and I wasn't sure of them. Then a few days later I got A LOT of EWCM like even more than I normally do, and had a positive OPK that day and the day after. Problem is the day after I had two super conflicting temps, one too early, and one too late. One super low (which moved my O to Saturday of this past week) and one super high which kept O on Tuesday of last week. I feel like later O is right. The signs feel more genuine. But I'm not sure. I'll attach both versions in case anyone wants to do a CS! Either way the point is my BSC is starting to kick in because either today is actually 10dpo, or its 6 which is the first day my BSC usually pops up anyway.
GTKY: What are some bad habits people have that annoy you more than anything else? Edit: I forgot to answer this earlier because I was so annoyed by my chart. Uhm the biggest is probably open mouth chewing or just general loud chewing. DH has a friend of a different culture where that wasn't considered weird. DH and all of his friends debated for a while whether not to clue him in what what he was doing was technically impolite. DH finally told him and his friend was actually thankful.
@AliciaGoose if you change your charting analysis method to FAM with the second version what does it give you? With either set of temps it looks like O Was around cd 23. I wil also add that it may give you less anxiety to go with the later date. If you go with the earlier date (when in reality it was the later one) then you may think AF is late when it really isn't. And if you go with the later date and it was the earlier one, then AF may seem earlier but then you'll know formate one way or the other. Or no AF and BFPs are also possible... But I like to try to plan for AF to keep me sane lol.
@furbabymom2007 Thanks for the CS! I've been going with the later version but when I couldn't sleep last night of course I started playing with the temps and the different detection methods. To just throw everything for a loop, FAM does this with the second version:
Also I totally agree about always planning for AF and hoping for a different result, not the other way around. That would cause way too much disappointment.
Timing: -10, -8, -5, -4, -2, -1 (which I thought was 0 but I guess not)
Testing: not until AF is late
R/R/CS: I thought that I was 1dpo yesterday but now I think I actually ovulated yesterday. So I guess I'm back to 1dpo.
GTKY: What are some bad habits people have that annoy you more than anything else? I also get frustrated with they ways that people talk or how they pronounce things. It drives me crazy. I know there are more things but I can't think of them right now. People who are constantly on their cell also drive me crazy. I'm lucky that my friends and family don't do that but I see it all the time. 6 people sitting at a table and they are all on their phones. What's the point of eating together then?!
Testing: BFN today. Naturally I'm googling "BPF after BFN" cuz I'm BSC like that
R/R/CS: it's Friday and in a week we are going to California! I'm excited to be off work and spend time with DH and DS.
GTKY: What are some bad habits people have that annoy you more than anything else? My coworker uses the awkward phrasing "in regarding to" when he's on the phone with clients. I hear it constantly and it grates on my nerves.
Me: 33 DH: 31 DS: 5 years old TTC #2 since August 2015 July 2016: Testing cycle with 100 mg Clomid = BFN August 2016: 50 mg Clomid + IUI = BFN October 2016: IVF#1 - 13 retrieved / 12 mature / 9 fertilized / 2 blasts November 2016: FET#1 = chemical January 2017: FET#2 = chemical March 2017: IVF#2 - 18 retrieved / 18 mature / 16 fertilized / 5 blasts
April 24, 2017: FET#3 - BFN May 24, 2017: FET#4 - BFP! - Beta #1 151 - Beta #2 503 - Due date 2/9/18
Testing: I plan on testing 2 weeks after O and then once a week after that until AF
R/R/CS: So I'm not sure how accurate my O date is as this is my first cycle off bcp and I haven't started temping yet. I'm rolling with it for now and plan on trying to temp next cycle. Question for people who temp: I usually wake up 5-30 minutes before my alarm. Do I take my temperature when I wake up or at the alarm time as long as I stay in bed so that the timing is the same?
GTKY: What are some bad habits people have that annoy you more than anything else?
I hate when people leave like 3 seconds on the microwaves at work. How hard is it to just hit clear?
I also work in a male dominated field so I hate when coworkers will be laughing about something but then stop when I enter and say it's not something I should hear. I'm a woman but I'm not a total prude and if it is truly that bad that I'd be offended it's probably not ok for work. Also I hate being called young lady or ma'am.

@melissam090 The only time waking up at 4am is acceptable is if it's to go to the airport to go on a sweet vacation. Hopefully being busy will make the day go by fast. Sorry about impending AF--I'm right there with ya and definitely have cocktails in my near future. @furbabymom2007 Why oh why do phones come with those sound effects enabled!? It should be standard for them NOT to be on because people like my mom (and sounds like your mom, too) either a. don't know how to turn them off or b. think they need them. @aliciagoose I don't really have any good advice about your chart (terrible CSer here), but I would just go with the later O date...that way you definitely won't be testing too early/getting your hopes up artificially. @megzb510 Sorry about the BFN--and, yes, it IS only natural to immediately turn to google following a BFN.
Month/Cycle: 8/8
CD/DPO:27/11
Timing: -3, -1, 0
Testing: Ah, I don't know. I'm very conflicted right now. I will probably wait until Sunday and see if AF comes first.
R/R/CS:
GTKY: What are some bad habits people have that annoy you more than anything else? Because it's IEP season, I can't stand when people rephrase the same thing over and over in a meeting. Like, we got it the first time. Also, when people insert meaningless anecdotes. Let's not make the meeting longer than it needs to be. To be clear, I'm referring to the school staff, not parents.
Timing: Who knows? I just want my pee sticks to come in the mail!
Testing: whenever I get my pee sticks in the mail....blaaah
R/R/CS: my horrible acne is clearing up a bit, and I actually don't feel hideous anymore, so that's nice! (don't get me wrong, the acne's still there and probably always will be..I'll be a 60 year old with acne one day, I'm sure of it...it's just LESS there, so I don't feel quite so ugly)
GTKY: What are some bad habits people have that annoy you more than anything else? chewing with their mouth open and relentless selfie taking.....I had the worst train ride ever (no exaggeration whatsoever there!) where I was sitting across from two girls...one was chewing gum with her mouth open, not even nicely, the side-to-side-looks-like-a-farm-animal-chewing-grass kind of chew and the other girl was taking a selfie with duck lips every minute or so. I got off the train and unleashed on DH about how annoyed I was haha. (not ducklips, but you get my idea)
TTGP history (*TW*):

R/R/CS: Felt a crampy yesterday so naturally I googled "cramping and 1 dpo". Sigh. It's a good thing we have family coming into town tomorrow for Passover, so I'll be distracted. I have a lot to clean tonight...sooo not looking forward to that.
GTKY: What are some bad habits people have that annoy you more than anything else? I don't like it when people sing or hum to themselves in public. Also, when I'm out to dinner with someone and they won't put down their stupid phone. It's so rude.
*CS question* Month/Cycle: officially speaking 2/2 NTNP before
CD/DPO: 19/6, 5, or 3 depending on what app you asked when
TIMING: CD 10, 11, 13. It's either great timing or meh depending on O day.
TESTING: haven't decided when yet. Period is due on Mother's Day.
R/R/CS: FF keeps changing my cross hairs. It has said CD 13, 14, and now 16. Ovasoft says 13 consistently. I Think my EW CM plus my slow rise is what made FF change it. But the EW CM on days 14/15 was mixed with creamy, so I disagree that I was still preparing to O then. Maybe I'm wrong though.
** Any thoughts on when I may have ovulated or just generally, whether FF or Ovasoft seek more consistently correct?
GTKY? bad grammar and grunting/loud breathing while eating
@melissaM090 Sorry! My temp dropped this morning too. Cocktails sound like an amazing idea! @furbabymom2007 Yes! I agree with the phone notifications. It is like they want to prove that they have messages coming in. So annoying @MooFish2364 Sorry if anyone else mentioned already, but in timing we generally only include the FW, so +10 wouldn't count. Are you temping? @Megzb510 I am so jealous you are going to California! That's going to be so much fun. @felix08 Can I just say that I am so happy you learned how to gif? That put a smile on my face this morning.
Month/Cycle 9/9 -- Soon to be 10
CD/DPO: 30/13
Timing: -5 -3 -1 0
Testing: nope
R/R/CS: Sorry guys, I'm in a mood today. This is going to be a long day. Plus we have a 'team building' event after work and I am going to try and make every excuse to get out of it. My temp dropped this morning and I am just done. TGIF!!
GTKY: I second the mouth chewing. I actually feel the hairs on my arms rise when I hear that awful sound. Also, when you are out to lunch/dinner with someone and they are on their phones the whole time. I just want to walk up and leave. Also, because I am feeling it today, I hate when people hold onto things. My DH is a grade B hoarder and it drives me crazy. You don't need to hold onto things that have no actually meaning.
GTKY: What are some bad habits people have that annoy you more than anything else? Small talk. It's not a bad habit per se, but I find it a waste of time in most situations (between strangers outside of a service communication).
Month/Cycle: 4/2 - Now that I think about it, I don't know if I've been doing this right. I've been off BC since November (6 months) and this was technically our 1st month actively trying. But it doesn't look right to do 6/1. I put 4 because that's what my chart looks like I became "normal" after coming off BC. So would it actually be 1/1? or 4/1?
CD/DPO: 30/12
Timing: -3, -2 , -1
Testing: BFN this morning. Will only test again if AF doesn't show up by Sunday.
R/R/CS: I think I'm going to take a break from charting for the next cycle. Originally, I had decided to chart only to make sure things are going well down there. I wanted to see if I'm healthy and 'regular' since I got diagnosed and had surgery when I was 19 for endo. Turns out, every month has been beautiful. O around CD16-18, AF appx 12-14 days later. And now charting has become such a point of anxiety and stress and obsession. I am going to use OPKs this next month but not temp or check CP or CM. I think it will help to 'just let it go'. Know what I mean? I'll still be here to participate and have fun with the snark because I don't have anyone else in my life who is going through anything like this right now and you all are my internet friends.
GTKY: What are some bad habits people have that annoy you more than anything else? Complaining without taking action. I am very much a "if it doesn't work or you don't like it, DO something about it". My BFF is this way and it drives me INSANE! She hates every job she's ever had and yet won't do anything to fix the situation.
R/R/CS: I'm 100% sure that I have ovulated, but I'm not 100% sure on the day. Yesterday is more in line with my normal pattern, but FF gave me CHs for Tuesday (CD 26). I'm going to trust FF for now and hope it adjusts itself in a few days.
GTKY: When a certain coworker takes on more work than she can handle and won't let anyone help her, even when they offer, just so that she can complain about it. Ugh.

Testing: still holding out. Haven't tested. For some reason AF is easier to absorb than a BFN. Due for it today. Will test if nothing by this weekend. Actually had a temp rise yesterday and stupidly forgot to take this morning!
R/R/CS: it's really cold again. After beautiful warm weather it's cold. I refuse to turn my heat on so im using my slanket! Its like the "snuggie" (as seen on tv) but much nicer. Ridiculous as they look i love it!
GTKY: What are some bad habits people have that annoy you more than anything else? Chewing loudly. Can't stand the smacking noise.
Testing: Next week. I may break down this weekend and test on a cheapie.
R/R/CS: Nothing really. I just wanna test and get it over with so I'll know already!
GTKY: What are some bad habits people have that annoy you more than anything else? Popping or chomping on gum. Sooooo many people I know do this and I want to pull my hair out every time I hear it.

"It's when you know you're licked before you begin, but you begin anyway and see it through no matter what. You rarely win, but sometimes you do." -Atticus Finch, To Kill A Mockingbird
R/R/CS: Please don't mind me, just moving on over here from TTA because DH can't figure out how to pull out ;-). We were trying to avoid getting KU just this one cycle due to grad school graduation and taking boards and such, but apparently we were really used to TTC and forgot to prevent. Once we forgot to prevent one time, we just decided to go with it and stop preventing all together. The only bad thing is I have no idea when or if I ovulated this cycle since I wasn't tracking or temping. Based on past O dates, our timing was probably fantastic. Yay!
GTKY: What are some bad habits people have that annoy you more than anything else? I absolutely hate it when people interrupt me. So rude.
R/R/CS: So... I only just got my CH this morning. I guess I had a SUPER slow rise ovulation which I have never had before (In 2 years of temping for TTA). I sort of thought I hadn't even ovulated yet and the positive LH test was just a fake out. I'm still kind of second guessing the crosshairs, but for now I'll just roll with it. Serious props to all you ladies who have slow rise on a regular basis. That was a damn emotional roller coaster for me.
GTKY: What are some bad habits people have that annoy you more than anything else? Entitlement is the worst. I can handle awkwardness, mean people, whatever, but as soon as people start acting entitled I just lose my mind.
Testing: 10 DPO, although I'm starting to waver...
R/R/CS: TGIF! What an insane week
GTKY: What are some bad habits people have that annoy you more than anything else? Oh man, chewing with their mouth open, interrupting, using words incorrectly and then telling me how "educated" they are. I could go on and on, which I realize makes me sound like a gem!
R/R/CS: I think my body may be gearing up to O again. And by that I mean maybe I had a fake-out before when FF thought I O'd. This is the second or third (I honestly can't remember) cycle in a row this has happened.
GTKY: What are some bad habits people have that annoy you more than anything else? Smacking gum or food. I also hate when someone apologizes and follows it up with "but..." That's not an apology. That's an excuse.

Month/Cycle: 4/2 - Now that I think about it, I don't know if I've been doing this right. I've been off BC since November (6 months) and this was technically our 1st month actively trying. But it doesn't look right to do 6/1. I put 4 because that's what my chart looks like I became "normal" after coming off BC. So would it actually be 1/1? or 4/1?
@Kenya715 I think there's no "right" way to do it. I, personally, would go for 1/1 for TTC and in convos here, but in conversations with your doctor let them know it's been 4/1 if you were NTNP during that time (and that it was post HBC).
From my understanding, most doctors count NTNP towards the "1 year for a healthy couple to conceive (6 mos over 35)" even if you're like, 'but I wasn't trying."
Testing: I was forced to this morning because DH had one of his "feelings."
R/R/CS: There was a second line. It's too early for a second line. I'm only 8DPO(ish). I was not prepared for this. If it were CD 12 I would have prepared myself, but I knew it would be negative today so I didn't prepare for this. I am freaking out. I am stressed. I don't know what I've done. I can't handle another loss and I'm freaking out. Why did I do this again? I can't have a fourth loss. I can't. I am maybe gonna retest at lunch. And then not again till next week. I am kinda hoping it's negative this afternoon since it won't be FMU and then I will have some time to prep myself. I feel like an awful person for not being excited. I'm freaking out. I was ready for another line.
GTKY: What are some bad habits people have that annoy you more than anything else? Interrupting. HATE that. And one-upping.**There is a difference between sharing your experience and one-upping. It's a fine line.

Next Up:
TTC Naturally, possibly IUIs for remainder of 2018. ER#2 ~Jan 2019
CD/DPO: 27/Idkkkkk I thought I had it nailed down but then things went wonky.
Timing: I'm still going with sucky between being sick and DH's work travels.
Testing: I tested this morning and got a BFN which I fully expected but I can't control myself.
R/R/CS: I'm so grouchy today. I'm confused by my cycle and cramping like crazy. AF is probably around the corner. Ugh. Plus DH was supposed to be gone 10 days but now every time I talk to him I get a different answer on when he'll be home. He's in construction so I know there are a lot of factors involved in when they can get things done but ew. Just come home.
GTKY: What are some bad habits people have that annoy you more than anything else? Using words wrong! My in laws refer to everyone and their dog as "ignorant", everything is "ignorant" and maybe 1 out of 50 times is it actually correct. It isn't a synonym for rude, which is how they use it most often. I also have a friend to refers to everything as a "culture shock". When she moved from Pennsylvania to Idaho she told me she was going to be "okay because there are lots of trees there so it won't be a culture shock". Girl, unless you talk to the trees that's not culture. I often want to respond to emails and texts with dictionary screenshots, but I don't want to lose all my friends so I refrain
R/R/CS: I got my opk + on Saturday morning and had terrible cramps that evening however FF says I Oed on Friday, not sure I believe it. This was my first cycle of clomid so I'm hyper in tune with everything that's happening lol. I keep having strange cramps that aren't painful since I Oed. Who knows, maybe it's related to the Clomid? I had twinges on 5DPO but I think that's I'm my head just like everything else! I'm just excited I'm ovulating! Stupid BCP messed me up big time
GTKY: What are some bad habits people have that annoy you more than anything else? Talking over people. Of you are in a conversation, it is RUDE and disrespectful to talk over or interrupt someone. I can't stand it!
Testing: I tested yesterday. BFN... Trying REALLY hard to not test again today. I had a little spotting last night (I mean, super super light on toilet paper), but then there was nothing this morning, so it's been very hard convincing myself to not test again yet!
R/R/CS: I am frustrated that my cycle isn't consistent. One month, 28 days like clockwork. But then the second month I am off birth control, I'm on day 30 of my cycle, with ovulation at day 20?? Ugh...
GTKY: What are some bad habits people have that annoy you more than anything else? People eating or drinking loudly. Yuck.
@melissam090 I am with you on the mispronounced names! My name is a different spelling of a really traditional name (thanks mom and dad!) and so many people hair cannot say it correctly! I had a boss once at a summer job call me by an entirely different name all summer.
@furbabymom2007 YES to the key clicks! That's the first setting I go for to turn it off whenever I get a new phone!
@megzb510 My boss says "irregardless" regularly. Maybe I should have included that in my GTKY answer.
@marriedhamstermom I think FF is fine with temping within 30 minutes of your set time. It will just give you an open circle for the day of you temp too far outside of your set time. I would go ahead and temp when you wake up, in case you roll around or do anything else that might affect your temp. Or just set your alarm for an earlier time when you know you won't wake up before it.
@buthayna My acne has been awful since coming off BC! What products do you use to try to control yours?
@zdmd_14 I think the majority of us use FF, and I've always found it to be very accurate for me. I'm not sure if I'm reading your chart right because I've never used that app, but it looks like that might be correct to me.
R/R/CS: Just subconsciously trying to justify my allergies as early pregnancy symptoms as usual.
GTKY: What are some bad habits people have that annoy you more than anything else? When people's first response to not knowing something is to ask someone else. My coworkers do it to me all the time about computer stuff. Just google it people, that's what I do! Sometimes someone will ask me how to do something in Excel, and I'll say "I don't know, hang on let me google it" to passive-aggressively demonstrate how normal people do things. It doesn't usually sink in.
@sammajane19@PepperAT Re: being on your phone when you're with people. Pete Holmes made a joke once about this- I'm just going to put my phone down here between us, just in case ANYTHING else comes up. So true.

7/2017 - Stage 3 endometriosis discovered during laparoscopic removal of ovarian cyst
9/27/2017 - BFP at 10dpo (cycle 22), baby boy due June 9, 2018
2/2 21/3-6? Timing: good Testing: Late next week. RRCS: A couple days ago I was burping... which is a new one for me. It is silly how gross things are suddenly wishful. GTKY: Answering your phone while in a group. go outside or at least away please!
Re: TWW Friday
Month/Cycle: 5/5
CD/DPO: 28/14
Timing: -3, -1, 0
Testing: Probably won't be necessary.
R/R/CS: I think I'm out. Temp dropped below the coverline this morning and I've been having random intermittent pains since yesterday that make me assume that AF is due any day. The good news is, I had tentative plans to go out with my mom at some point to dinner and a movie to see Mother's Day, and if AF comes, that means that mother-daughter night can include cocktails!
GTKY: What are some bad habits people have that annoy you more than anything else? My pet peeves are less about physical bad habits and more about language. Certain grammatically incorrect phrases annoy the crap out of me. An ex-boyfriend's ENTIRE FAMILY used the phrase 'alls it is' that drove me nuts with it's incorrectness. 'Oh my turkey tettrazini? Alls it is, is leftover turkey and cream of chicken soup'. Aaarghhh.
Also my boss is TERRIBLE with names. I'm constantly reminding him what people's names are and then he'll get an incorrect pronunciation stuck in his head and it's all downhill from there. He has a business acquaintance that he claims he's actually friends with who he constantly refers to as Brandon and I've said MORE THAN ONCE, 'you know his name is actually Brendan right?'. He just hired a girl named Alyssa which is baffling him. 'Ah-leesha? A-lissha?'. I've said 10 times over the last 3 days: 'What's my name?' 'Melissa'. 'Drop the M'. I feel like I need a pay raise based alone on how much effort I make so that he doesn't look like an idiot. It's infuriating.

EDD #1: June/July 2017
CD/DPO: 20/4
Timing: -2, O, 1
Testing: none, waiting for AF (due in 6-7 ish days) so I can schedule HSC and get this show on the road (you know, the road I THOUGHT I was in in first 8 months of trying but apparently wasn't because of shitty ovulation and a blocked tube ). I'm over it, moving on
R/R/CS:
FRIDAY!!
GTKY: What are some bad habits people have that annoy you more than anything else?
i cant stand when people have their phone notifications on when they are sitting there messaging someone. I called my mom out on it once (and that went over like a lead balloon). "Can you turn your Sound off please?" "But how will I knowing someone messages me?" ".... You are staring at it, how would you not know?". The same goes for the key clicks in public.... I don't need to be informed each time your thumbs hit a letter dammit.
Also, related.... When people play games or watch things on devices in public and either don't turn the sound down or put on headphones. I enjoy a game angry birds like the next person, but that doesn't mean I want to listen to you play for 3 hours in the airplane seat behind me
@furbabymom2007 I'm glad you have a plan now to move forward at least!!
Edit: typos
Kind of CS requested?
Month/Cycle: 4/3
CD/DPO: 33/6
Timing: -5, -3, -1, 0
Testing:10 DPO
R/R/CS: My chart is not super reliable this month. In one version I am 10dpo, and in the other I am 6, and it all depends on one temp. I think 6 is right, which is why I've been going with it. I got my only strong positive OPK the day of this O and the day before. The other positive in my chart was a much weaker barely positive. But the day after that I had my normal decent amount of EWCM. And I got crosshairs. They were dotted and I wasn't sure of them. Then a few days later I got A LOT of EWCM like even more than I normally do, and had a positive OPK that day and the day after. Problem is the day after I had two super conflicting temps, one too early, and one too late. One super low (which moved my O to Saturday of this past week) and one super high which kept O on Tuesday of last week. I feel like later O is right. The signs feel more genuine. But I'm not sure. I'll attach both versions in case anyone wants to do a CS! Either way the point is my BSC is starting to kick in because either today is actually 10dpo, or its 6 which is the first day my BSC usually pops up anyway.
GTKY: What are some bad habits people have that annoy you more than anything else?
Edit: I forgot to answer this earlier because I was so annoyed by my chart. Uhm the biggest is probably open mouth chewing or just general loud chewing. DH has a friend of a different culture where that wasn't considered weird. DH and all of his friends debated for a while whether not to clue him in what what he was doing was technically impolite. DH finally told him and his friend was actually thankful.

CD/DPO: 16/1
Timing: -10, -8, -5, -4, -2, -1 (which I thought was 0 but I guess not)
Testing: not until AF is late
R/R/CS: I thought that I was 1dpo yesterday but now I think I actually ovulated yesterday. So I guess I'm back to 1dpo.
GTKY: What are some bad habits people have that annoy you more than anything else? I also get frustrated with they ways that people talk or how they pronounce things. It drives me crazy. I know there are more things but I can't think of them right now. People who are constantly on their cell also drive me crazy. I'm lucky that my friends and family don't do that but I see it all the time. 6 people sitting at a table and they are all on their phones. What's the point of eating together then?!
CD/DPO: 46/10
Timing: -4,-2,0,+1
Testing: BFN today. Naturally I'm googling "BPF after BFN" cuz I'm BSC like that
R/R/CS: it's Friday and in a week we are going to California! I'm excited to be off work and spend time with DH and DS.
GTKY: What are some bad habits people have that annoy you more than anything else? My coworker uses the awkward phrasing "in regarding to" when he's on the phone with clients. I hear it constantly and it grates on my nerves.

May 24, 2017: FET#4 - BFP! - Beta #1 151 - Beta #2 503 - Due date 2/9/18
CD/DPO:17/3
Timing: every day but O.
Testing: I plan on testing 2 weeks after O and then once a week after that until AF
R/R/CS: So I'm not sure how accurate my O date is as this is my first cycle off bcp and I haven't started temping yet. I'm rolling with it for now and plan on trying to temp next cycle. Question for people who temp: I usually wake up 5-30 minutes before my alarm. Do I take my temperature when I wake up or at the alarm time as long as I stay in bed so that the timing is the same?
GTKY: What are some bad habits people have that annoy you more than anything else?
I hate when people leave like 3 seconds on the microwaves at work. How hard is it to just hit clear?
I also work in a male dominated field so I hate when coworkers will be laughing about something but then stop when I enter and say it's not something I should hear. I'm a woman but I'm not a total prude and if it is truly that bad that I'd be offended it's probably not ok for work. Also I hate being called young lady or ma'am.

@furbabymom2007 Why oh why do phones come with those sound effects enabled!? It should be standard for them NOT to be on because people like my mom (and sounds like your mom, too) either a. don't know how to turn them off or b. think they need them.
@aliciagoose I don't really have any good advice about your chart (terrible CSer here), but I would just go with the later O date...that way you definitely won't be testing too early/getting your hopes up artificially.
@megzb510 Sorry about the BFN--and, yes, it IS only natural to immediately turn to google following a BFN.
Month/Cycle: 8/8
CD/DPO:27/11
Timing: -3, -1, 0
Testing: Ah, I don't know. I'm very conflicted right now. I will probably wait until Sunday and see if AF comes first.
R/R/CS:
GTKY: What are some bad habits people have that annoy you more than anything else?
Because it's IEP season, I can't stand when people rephrase the same thing over and over in a meeting. Like, we got it the first time. Also, when people insert meaningless anecdotes. Let's not make the meeting longer than it needs to be. To be clear, I'm referring to the school staff, not parents.
Month/Cycle: 6/6
CD/DPO: 37
Timing: Who knows? I just want my pee sticks to come in the mail!
Testing: whenever I get my pee sticks in the mail....blaaah
R/R/CS: my horrible acne is clearing up a bit, and I actually don't feel hideous anymore, so that's nice! (don't get me wrong, the acne's still there and probably always will be..I'll be a 60 year old with acne one day, I'm sure of it...it's just LESS there, so I don't feel quite so ugly)
GTKY: What are some bad habits people have that annoy you more than anything else? chewing with their mouth open and relentless selfie taking.....I had the worst train ride ever (no exaggeration whatsoever there!) where I was sitting across from two girls...one was chewing gum with her mouth open, not even nicely, the side-to-side-looks-like-a-farm-animal-chewing-grass kind of chew and the other girl was taking a selfie with duck lips every minute or so. I got off the train and unleashed on DH about how annoyed I was haha.

GTKY: What are some bad habits people have that annoy you more than anything else? I don't like it when people sing or hum to themselves in public. Also, when I'm out to dinner with someone and they won't put down their stupid phone. It's so rude.

Month/Cycle: officially speaking 2/2 NTNP before
CD/DPO: 19/6, 5, or 3 depending on what app you asked when
TIMING: CD 10, 11, 13. It's either
great timing or meh depending on O day.
TESTING: haven't decided when yet. Period is due on Mother's Day.
R/R/CS:
FF keeps changing my cross hairs. It has said CD 13, 14, and now 16. Ovasoft says 13 consistently. I Think my EW CM plus my slow rise is what made FF change it. But the EW CM on days 14/15 was mixed with creamy, so I disagree that I was still preparing to O then. Maybe I'm wrong though.
** Any thoughts on when I may have ovulated or just generally, whether FF or Ovasoft seek more consistently correct?
GTKY?
bad grammar and grunting/loud breathing while eating
Almost always mobile bumping--forgive my typos.
@furbabymom2007 Yes! I agree with the phone notifications. It is like they want to prove that they have messages coming in. So annoying
@MooFish2364 Sorry if anyone else mentioned already, but in timing we generally only include the FW, so +10 wouldn't count. Are you temping?
@Megzb510 I am so jealous you are going to California! That's going to be so much fun.
@felix08 Can I just say that I am so happy you learned how to gif? That put a smile on my face this morning.

R/R/CS: Sorry guys, I'm in a mood today. This is going to be a long day. Plus we have a 'team building' event after work and I am going to try and make every excuse to get out of it. My temp dropped this morning and I am just done.
TGIF!!
GTKY: I second the mouth chewing. I actually feel the hairs on my arms rise when I hear that awful sound. Also, when you are out to lunch/dinner with someone and they are on their phones the whole time. I just want to walk up and leave.
Also, because I am feeling it today, I hate when people hold onto things. My DH is a grade B hoarder and it drives me crazy. You don't need to hold onto things that have no actually meaning.

CD/DPO: 30/12
Timing: -3, -2 , -1
Testing: BFN this morning. Will only test again if AF doesn't show up by Sunday.
R/R/CS: I think I'm going to take a break from charting for the next cycle. Originally, I had decided to chart only to make sure things are going well down there. I wanted to see if I'm healthy and 'regular' since I got diagnosed and had surgery when I was 19 for endo. Turns out, every month has been beautiful. O around CD16-18, AF appx 12-14 days later. And now charting has become such a point of anxiety and stress and obsession. I am going to use OPKs this next month but not temp or check CP or CM. I think it will help to 'just let it go'. Know what I mean? I'll still be here to participate and have fun with the snark because I don't have anyone else in my life who is going through anything like this right now and you all are my internet friends.
GTKY: What are some bad habits people have that annoy you more than anything else? Complaining without taking action. I am very much a "if it doesn't work or you don't like it, DO something about it". My BFF is this way and it drives me INSANE! She hates every job she's ever had and yet won't do anything to fix the situation.

Testing: not even thinking about it yet
R/R/CS: I'm 100% sure that I have ovulated, but I'm not 100% sure on the day. Yesterday is more in line with my normal pattern, but FF gave me CHs for Tuesday (CD 26). I'm going to trust FF for now and hope it adjusts itself in a few days.
GTKY: When a certain coworker takes on more work than she can handle and won't let anyone help her, even when they offer, just so that she can complain about it. Ugh.

Testing with RE October 2016
BFP 11/5/2016 ~ EDD 7/19/2016
CD/DPO: 25/14
Timing: great!
Testing: still holding out. Haven't tested. For some reason AF is easier to absorb than a BFN. Due for it today. Will test if nothing by this weekend. Actually had a temp rise yesterday and stupidly forgot to take this morning!
R/R/CS: it's really cold again. After beautiful warm weather it's cold. I refuse to turn my heat on so im using my slanket! Its like the "snuggie" (as seen on tv) but much nicer. Ridiculous as they look i love it!
GTKY: What are some bad habits people have that annoy you more than anything else?
Chewing loudly. Can't stand the smacking noise.
I'll be back to reply later!
Month/Cycle: 9 / 8
CD/DPO: 29 / 8
Timing: -4, -2, -1, O
Testing: Next week. I may break down this weekend and test on a cheapie.
R/R/CS: Nothing really. I just wanna test and get it over with so I'll know already!
GTKY: What are some bad habits people have that annoy you more than anything else? Popping or chomping on gum. Sooooo many people I know do this and I want to pull my hair out every time I hear it.
Baby Boy #1 born 1/9/17
Baby Boy #2 EDD 11/4/18
CD/DPO: 19/unknown
Timing: Most likely really good
Testing: Waiting for CD 28ish.
R/R/CS: Please don't mind me, just moving on over here from TTA because DH can't figure out how to pull out ;-). We were trying to avoid getting KU just this one cycle due to grad school graduation and taking boards and such, but apparently we were really used to TTC and forgot to prevent. Once we forgot to prevent one time, we just decided to go with it and stop preventing all together. The only bad thing is I have no idea when or if I ovulated this cycle since I wasn't tracking or temping. Based on past O dates, our timing was probably fantastic. Yay!
GTKY: What are some bad habits people have that annoy you more than anything else? I absolutely hate it when people interrupt me. So rude.
Month/Cycle: 1/1
CD/DPO: 20 and apparently 5
Timing: -4, -2, 0, +1
Testing: Probably 10 DPO
R/R/CS: So... I only just got my CH this morning. I guess I had a SUPER slow rise ovulation which I have never had before (In 2 years of temping for TTA). I sort of thought I hadn't even ovulated yet and the positive LH test was just a fake out. I'm still kind of second guessing the crosshairs, but for now I'll just roll with it. Serious props to all you ladies who have slow rise on a regular basis. That was a damn emotional roller coaster for me.
GTKY: What are some bad habits people have that annoy you more than anything else?
Entitlement is the worst. I can handle awkwardness, mean people, whatever, but as soon as people start acting entitled I just lose my mind.
CD/DPO: 19/9
Timing: -4, -3, -1, +1
Testing: Monday or later
R/R/CS: I think my body may be gearing up to O again. And by that I mean maybe I had a fake-out before when FF thought I O'd. This is the second or third (I honestly can't remember) cycle in a row this has happened.
GTKY: What are some bad habits people have that annoy you more than anything else? Smacking gum or food. I also hate when someone apologizes and follows it up with "but..." That's not an apology. That's an excuse.

CD/DPO: 22/8(ish)

Testing: I was forced to this morning because DH had one of his "feelings."
R/R/CS: There was a second line. It's too early for a second line. I'm only 8DPO(ish). I was not prepared for this. If it were CD 12 I would have prepared myself, but I knew it would be negative today so I didn't prepare for this. I am freaking out. I am stressed. I don't know what I've done. I can't handle another loss and I'm freaking out. Why did I do this again? I can't have a fourth loss. I can't. I am maybe gonna retest at lunch. And then not again till next week. I am kinda hoping it's negative this afternoon since it won't be FMU and then I will have some time to prep myself. I feel like an awful person for not being excited. I'm freaking out. I was ready for another line.
GTKY: What are some bad habits people have that annoy you more than anything else?
Interrupting. HATE that. And one-upping.**There is a difference between sharing your experience and one-upping. It's a fine line.

R/R/CS: I'm so grouchy today. I'm confused by my cycle and cramping like crazy. AF is probably around the corner. Ugh. Plus DH was supposed to be gone 10 days but now every time I talk to him I get a different answer on when he'll be home. He's in construction so I know there are a lot of factors involved in when they can get things done but ew. Just come home.
GTKY: What are some bad habits people have that annoy you more than anything else?
Using words wrong! My in laws refer to everyone and their dog as "ignorant", everything is "ignorant" and maybe 1 out of 50 times is it actually correct. It isn't a synonym for rude, which is how they use it most often. I also have a friend to refers to everything as a "culture shock". When she moved from Pennsylvania to Idaho she told me she was going to be "okay because there are lots of trees there so it won't be a culture shock". Girl, unless you talk to the trees that's not culture. I often want to respond to emails and texts with dictionary screenshots, but I don't want to lose all my friends so I refrain
CD/DPO: 23/7
Timing: -3, -1, +1, +2 (according to FF)
Testing: holding out
R/R/CS:
I got my opk + on Saturday morning and had terrible cramps that evening however FF says I Oed on Friday, not sure I believe it. This was my first cycle of clomid so I'm hyper in tune with everything that's happening lol. I keep having strange cramps that aren't painful since I Oed. Who knows, maybe it's related to the Clomid? I had twinges on 5DPO but I think that's I'm my head just like everything else! I'm just excited I'm ovulating! Stupid BCP messed me up big time

R/R/CS: I am frustrated that my cycle isn't consistent. One month, 28 days like clockwork. But then the second month I am off birth control, I'm on day 30 of my cycle, with ovulation at day 20?? Ugh...

People eating or drinking loudly. Yuck.
@furbabymom2007 YES to the key clicks! That's the first setting I go for to turn it off whenever I get a new phone!
@megzb510 My boss says "irregardless" regularly. Maybe I should have included that in my GTKY answer.
@marriedhamstermom I think FF is fine with temping within 30 minutes of your set time. It will just give you an open circle for the day of you temp too far outside of your set time. I would go ahead and temp when you wake up, in case you roll around or do anything else that might affect your temp. Or just set your alarm for an earlier time when you know you won't wake up before it.
@buthayna My acne has been awful since coming off BC! What products do you use to try to control yours?
@zdmd_14 I think the majority of us use FF, and I've always found it to be very accurate for me. I'm not sure if I'm reading your chart right because I've never used that app, but it looks like that might be correct to me.
@kristob Thinking about you today. Hugs!

R/R/CS: Just subconsciously trying to justify my allergies as early pregnancy symptoms as usual.GTKY: What are some bad habits people have that annoy you more than anything else? When people's first response to not knowing something is to ask someone else. My coworkers do it to me all the time about computer stuff. Just google it people, that's what I do! Sometimes someone will ask me how to do something in Excel, and I'll say "I don't know, hang on let me google it" to passive-aggressively demonstrate how normal people do things. It doesn't usually sink in.
@sammajane19 @PepperAT Re: being on your phone when you're with people. Pete Holmes made a joke once about this- I'm just going to put my phone down here between us, just in case ANYTHING else comes up. So true.
