Testing: BFN Tuesday (25/11) and I've been hesitant to try again. I've been feeling based on math and previous cycles that if AF were coming, it would be today and if not, I'll test tomorrow. I have an ob/gyn appt on Monday so it would be good to know either way.
R/R/CS: Temp is back up above the coverline this morning after a dip below yesterday, but it's not as high as it was post-O. What can you do. Today I'm at a trade show all day alone, and that is NOT the place for CD1. It's annoying enough to be working the weekend after busting my ass Monday-Friday already this week. I've also been sleeping terribly the last little while because I've been trying to cut down on sleep aids. I take Gravol - I think it's just a Canadian thing. It's dimenhydrinate, and anti-nauseant with lovely drowsy side-effects that are supposed to be non-addictive but since I was needing to take them every night, I guess I was addicted, or at least reliant. I was slowly weaning my dosage down from 2 a night to 1, to half, then finally nothing for the past 3 nights and I've been waking up ridiculously early then being tired all day.
TL; DR - I'm tired and crabby.
GTKY: what's your favorite show to binge watch? My favourite way to relax is to find comfort in things I've watched a million times. I've previously binge-watched certain shows that people were already into, in order to catch up (Game of Thrones, Sons of Anarchy, Chicago Fire) and DH and I always binge-watch Orange is the New Black when it gets released. Right now my fallback on Netflix is How I Met Your Mother because I can start it anywhere and just have it on in the background. I used to do that with Friends on DVD, and watched them all a million times that way.
Me: 32 DH: 33 Married: October 2015 TTC #1: October 2015 EDD #1: June/July 2017
R/R/CS: my temp took a big dip to just above the coverline in 7 DPO and came back up the next day and my temps are a slow rise from there but still well above coverline. feeling sorta crampy today so not sure if AF is en route. My LP has been 12,14 and 16 days so who knows.
GTKY: what's your favorite show to binge watch? I will binge HIMYM often cuz it's so easy to watch. I also binged orange is the new black, Unbreakable Kimmy schmidt, and house of cards (though I'm behind and haven't watched the new seasons of the last 2)

Testing: I swore I wouldn't test until I was late, but I am just kidding myself. I will be sending DH to the store when he wakes up. Then I will be mad I tested and annoyed I didn't just order the cheapies online.
R/R/CS: I woke up with really sore boobs this morning which isn't usual for me. I also checked my CP and its much higher and soft than it's been the last few days. This is the worst part of the TWW for me. EVERYTHING is a sign:/
I also had my progesterone draw on Thursday and my doctor said she wants to talk about IUI next. It caught me off guard. I guess in my mind we weren't there yet, but I am almost 35, it will be cycle 8, and I have done 3 rounds of Clomid. It's a sad and frustrating place to be.
GTKY: what's your favorite show to binge watch? House of Cards and Orange is the New Black! Since the whole season is released at once, we always watch the whole thing in like two days.
Me: 34 DH: 36 TTC#2 September 2015 DD #1 born July 2014 Clomid 50 mg x2 months- no ovulation Clomid 100mg x 2 months- confirmed ovulation first month, BFN
@MelissaM090 Hoping CD1 doesn't come for you!! @megzb510 Sorry about the BFN. @hurricaneamelia I also told myself I wouldn't test early...guess who tested this morning?? Definitely wish I wouldn't have!!
Month/Cycle: 8/8
CD/DPO:28/12
Timing: -3, -1, 0
Testing: Well after I spent the last few days saying I wouldn't test until tomorrow/wait until AF comes, my temp has been way up the past couple days making my chart look triphasic. Of course, this led to me testing this morning which resulted in a BFN. What else?
R/R/CS: At least I can drink without reservation at the party we're going to tonight.
GTKY: what's your favorite show to binge watch? I don't typically re-watch any shows, but will binge watch anything. Currently, binging on True Detective Season 1.
Testing: whenever I get my pee sticks in the mail! super bummed they didn't come before the weekend
R/R/CS: the usual. (I was going to say "the uge", but I wasn't sure how to type it to sound like the abbreviation for usual, but be clear over typing what I meant...confusing!)
GTKY: what's your favorite show to binge watch? oh, so many! HIMYM, Everybody Loves Raymond, Downton Abbey, Baby Daddy, Welcome to Sweden, so so many... if I had to pick one: HIMYM, but I binge watched it too much and had to take a rest haha.

R/R/CS: My first time temping and getting crosshairs on FF so that's exciting! It feels good to actually know what DPO I am. Kind of concerned about how late I ovulated though, because my periods are usually not more than 28-30 days with my longest being 34.
GTKY: what's your favorite show to binge watch? Bob's Burgers, definitely.
Month/Cycle: 6 NTNP 1/1 TTC (Changing after learning more about how to calculate it)
CD/DPO: 31/13
Timing: -3, -2, -1
Testing: Not until a day or so after AF is late
R/R/CS: Feeling like I woke up on the right side of the bed. After yesterday feeling all down in the dumps, today is a little brighter. It's Saturday! Enjoying laying in bed and reading before doing anything. I love being lazy. My temps are still up and I'm not spotting at all, which is a little strange for me and what my pattern has been over the last several months. I already had a GYN appt set for a couple weeks from now. Just an annual but looking forward to asking questions and learning more.
GTKY: what's your favorite show to binge watch? HIMYM is a go-to because it's so easy to have on in the background. I've been watching a lot of Gilmore Girls again so I can be totally ready for the reboot. DH and I are watching Downton Abby and Breaking Bad now too, finally.
@MelissaM090 Sorry you have to work today. I hope it goes quickly for you and AF stays away.
@Megzb510 Your GTKY, while not exactly what I was going to put down for mine, is all stuff that I do! I'm even a couple seasons behind on house of cards! And HIMYM is the best
Testing: 10 DPO, but my resolve is slipping because of the possibility that I O'd a few days earlier. I'm letting the BSC in. I really don't think (despite my weird chart this month) that I did O at that earlier date though. So I'm doing my best to hold out.
R/R/CS: So DH said things yesterday about having a 'feeling' this was a good month through text while I was at work (as a response to me asking "why do you keep asking about how I feel this month, etc"). When I got home I asked him to elaborate and he said idk I literally feel like there is some type of shift and I feel good about it. Can we talk about cue the major BSC?! How am I not going to have my hopes up now?!
GTKY: what's your favorite show to binge watch? At night I almost always watch either Friends, HIMYM, the Office, or sometimes scrubs. Once I 'start' one I will watch the whole thing through before I move on to another. The Office tends to end up in the rotation more often. Other than that I binge watch so many different shows when they pop on Netflix it would take me forever to list them here. So I figure my 'repeats' are good enough.
@KarliQ88 I get that you are excited about your news this AM but I think you have been around long enough to know these things go in the grad thread now not the TWW. You might want to remove as not to shit on people's weekend.
And you also missed the same thing happening yesterday in the TWW thread to someone else? Interesting. Do what you like. You may get flamed. I tried to help you out.

@KarliQ88 While I appreciate that you deleted yours so it doesn't ruin other people's days to see something they weren't expecting in here, I dont think @MrsBinPA is going to dirty delete her comments to make you feel better. Unless she's a better person than I am, maybe she'll give you some sympathy. It's hard to believe you've missed the graduation thread for the last few weeks if you're an active member. It's also hard to believe that you 'didn't read' anyone's posts in here, because ya know, active members contribute back and forth with one another. Just saying.
Testing: yesterday was BFN..won't test again unless AF Isn't here by Monday
R/R/CS: acupuncturist recommended taking a baby aspirin every other day (I have a clotting disorder) but I just don't feel comfortable doing this without it coming from the doctor. Anyone have any thoughts on this?
GTKY: what's your favorite show to binge watch? I'm on season 5 of Pretty Little Liars currently - I started the series a couple months ago on Netflix. It's really affecting my time with other shows lol

@AliciaGoose i meant for it to be deleted for sake of keeping peace. It was honest mistake. Everyone has been so great and the last thing i want is to have said anything to hurt anyone. I'm not like that. I really didn't read yesterdays thread! I posted but just didn't come back. So I'm sorry!
@Kenya715 I admire your dedication to not POAS. Can I have some of your willpower?
@Marley629 Sorry for the BFN. Hugs. @BusinessWife 9dpo (or even 8) is when my will not to test starts wavering. I like the trying to take it one day at a time thing.
@aliciagoose my DH did they exact kind of thing to me the other day. He said something along the lines of "it doesn't matter because I think we made a baby this month" UMMM could you please not do that !

GTKY: what's your favorite show to binge watch? Currently it's Grey's Anatomy! I didn't start watching it until recently so lucky for me, Netflix has 12 seasons for me to catch up on.
Me: 28 | DH: 30 BFP #1 April 12, 2017 EDD December 19, 2017
R/R/CS: Temp drop today after BFN yesterday, I guess AF is on the way. Just really bummed, I felt this month was really good. Guess not good enough.
GTKY: what's your favorite show to binge watch? HIMYM, Blacklist, and I've binged watched the first season of Prison Break like 3 times because it was that good.
@MelissaM090 Sorry about BFN. FX for testing tomorrow. I binged watched HIMYM last year… I was obsessed; still not sure how I feel about the ending. I have been meaning to watch OITNB but have to finish PLL first..damn you Netflix for destroying my productivity haha
@Megzb510 Sorry about BFN. I tried to watch House of Cards but was having trouble with getting past the 1st episode. I have been told its really good and it just starts off slow so that’s still on my list!
@HurricaneAmelia SS can get to the best of us! Its so hard not to SS! Props to the ladies who can keep that under control because most months I cant as hard as I try - I’m right there with you – 34 and was surprised when my doctor mentioned sending me to RE after 6 months (technically there already but I told her I wanted to chart for 6 months first before going that route so we have 1 more cycle) I totally understand your sadness and frustration sending creepy internet hugs
@lisswastaken ah Golden Girls. Loved that show growing up…and how can you not love Betty White?
@felix08 sorry about BFN L I hope you enjoy your party tonight!
@Kenya715 I never really watched Gilmore Girls when it was on but have heard nothing but good things. Is it true its coming back? If so, I may have to add it to my growing list!
@AliciaGoose my BSC usually sets in around 7dpo too lol
@BusinessWife One day at a time is a great motto. I try to do same.
@francesgrace630 yay for CH--and fabulous timing! Enjoy your weekend :-) @buthayna haha! I've always wondered how to spell "the uge" because I love saying it in real life, but it just never comes off right in writing. @kenya715 Glad you are feeling better today--enjoy your lazy day! Also, Breaking Bad is soooo good. Probably my favorite series of all time. And then you can watch Better Call Saul! @aliciagoose I will definitely enjoy my drinks--thanks! And, yes, I've really enjoyed True Detective--one episode to go. I've heard the second season isn't as good, though? Also, I hope your DH's premonition is right! @marley629 Aaah PLL..I have a love/hate relationship with that show. I love it, but I hate that it NEVER ENDS!! @nursemarie9 Sorry about the temp drop--it's always like a punch to the gut. Sounds like we will be moving over to WTO together :-(
@felix08 Yeah DH and I are actually still lugging through the second season. We watch an episode like every week or two. It's not bad but it's nowhere near as interesting. Also that would be amazing! But then I would be a little concerned that DH is psychic-ish, and freak out a little. He's very emotionally in tune, I will give him that for sure!
@AliciaGoose@felix08 I'm glad I'm not the only one puzzled...we should come up with a sweeping decree of how it should be spelled

Testing: I've decided I'm going to try to hold out until next Saturday; a friend's having a birthday thing and I figure testing beforehand will help inform my decision of whether or not to drink...
R/R/CS: Not a fan of the crummy Saturday weather we've got over here. The last thing I need today is to be cooped up, but the forecast is calling for rain all day, and the temperature isn't supposed to hit above 50.
DH just came home from the grocery store and surprised me with some non-dairy Ben and Jerry's, which has me very excited because a) I've been grumbling about our store not carrying it since the stuff came out, but now it looks like they finally are, and b) it's the peanut butter flavor, which is the one I most wanted to try! MAYBE IT WILL NOT BE SUCH A CRUMMY DAY AFTER ALL
Also, does anyone have any recommendations for lengthening luteal phase other than B6? Mine's enough on the short side (10-11 days) that it has me a little worried, but I tried B6 and something about it just made me feel weird, even when I started cutting my 100 mg pills in half.
GTKY:what's your favorite show to binge watch?
I always seem to get binge-fatigue partway through any show I do this with and then give up on it entirely (see: The Walking Dead, especially, but others too), but back in college I binged my way through the first four season of Lost and it was probably the most satisfying binge watching experience I've had. My favorite show to re-watch - though I can't sustain binging on it - is probably The Wire, though.
Me 32 |DH 32 married 9/15 DD: 1/17/17 #2 due 7/26/20!
Timing: I'm still not convinced I'm 6 dpo, but probably got in 3-4 days out of the fertile week.
Testing: Probably next Thursday
R/R/CS: As I mentioned above I'm not sure how much I trust my chart, but I had another high temp today so I'm taking it as a good sign
GTKY: what's your favorite show to binge watch? The same as a lot of you! I think my absolute favorites to binge watch is either the OC, Grey's Anatomy, or Pretty Little Liars.
@Buthayna Instead of resurrecting yesterday's thread, I'll just respond here. Thanks for the information! I might have to try the gel stuff you mentioned. My acne has been awful since coming off BC, and it is very cyclical, like you mentioned. I really need to just stop wearing makeup for a while to maybe give my skin a break...but that's the only thing that keeps me looking decent!
@BusinessWife My H loves Fringe! I need to try that one next.
Month/Cycle: 10/8

@Marley629 PLL is so good! DH actually watches it with me. It's his guilty pleasure. (Don't tell anyone I told you ). Right now we're about two seasons behind though. I'm dying to catch up.
@MrsRoss89 Ah, darn DHs! It would be nice if they were right but make it that much harder if they were wrong.
@egilona Ah, that Ben and Jerry's sounds amazing. Enjoy.
@antoto Happy weekend! Also yes hopefully that temp is a good sign you're in the right place.
@klstone25 My DH watched Master of None and liked it, but I just couldn't get into it. I'm not sure why.
@pretzel2plus1@Buthayna Adult acne is the worst. I was just talking to DH about needing to go back to the dermatologist because my breakouts have been horrible the past month. I'm hoping it was just a weird month and I'll go back to my normal. Next month. But honestly my normal is too much as well. I've been super good about taking my foundation off with a cloth every night and changing my pillow cases often too.
R/R/CS: Whoohoo, I'm at earliest possible implantation day, Time to go BSC!
GTKY: what's your favorite show to binge watch? Agents of Shield. It's perfect for only paying half attention to when I'm sick. Also basically every Netflix show is set up for binging.
So I was at this trade show all day which was marginally beneficial to my job but I had quite a bit of downtime and thought I'd get lots of Bumping in. Of course mobile Bump is an a-hole and I could read everything but couldn't respond because it keeps logging me out. But when I go back a screen I'm logged in. So frustrating. WHERE IS THE ANDROID UPDATE, BUMP??
Anyway I read everyone's responses, but DH is hogging the desktop so I'm stuck on mobile.

Testing: Well after I spent the last few days saying I wouldn't test until tomorrow/wait until AF comes, my temp has been way up the past couple days making my chart look triphasic. Of course, this led to me testing this morning which resulted in a BFN. What else?
R/R/CS: At least I can drink without reservation at the party we're going to tonight.
GTKY: what's your favorite show to binge watch? I don't typically re-watch any shows, but will binge watch anything. Currently, binging on True Detective Season 1.
CD/DPO: 19/3
Timing: -5, -4, -3, -1, 0
Testing: Mothers day
R/R/CS: I have crosshairs! It's Saturday! My DH is off work tomorrow! Lots of things to be thankful for
GTKY: @Megzb510 @MelissaM090 yes to How I Met Your Mother! My other go to is The Office.
CD/DPO: 38
Timing: who knows?
Testing: whenever I get my pee sticks in the mail! super bummed they didn't come before the weekend
R/R/CS: the usual. (I was going to say "the uge", but I wasn't sure how to type it to sound like the abbreviation for usual, but be clear over typing what I meant...confusing!)
GTKY: what's your favorite show to binge watch? oh, so many! HIMYM, Everybody Loves Raymond, Downton Abbey, Baby Daddy, Welcome to Sweden, so so many... if I had to pick one: HIMYM, but I binge watched it too much and had to take a rest haha.

CD/DPO: 28/4
Timing: -3, 0
Testing: no plans
R/R/CS: My first time temping and getting crosshairs on FF so that's exciting! It feels good to actually know what DPO I am. Kind of concerned about how late I ovulated though, because my periods are usually not more than 28-30 days with my longest being 34.
GTKY: what's your favorite show to binge watch? Bob's Burgers, definitely.
CD/DPO: 31/13
Timing: -3, -2, -1
Testing: Not until a day or so after AF is late
R/R/CS: Feeling like I woke up on the right side of the bed. After yesterday feeling all down in the dumps, today is a little brighter. It's Saturday! Enjoying laying in bed and reading before doing anything. I love being lazy. My temps are still up and I'm not spotting at all, which is a little strange for me and what my pattern has been over the last several months. I already had a GYN appt set for a couple weeks from now. Just an annual but looking forward to asking questions and learning more.
GTKY: what's your favorite show to binge watch? HIMYM is a go-to because it's so easy to have on in the background. I've been watching a lot of Gilmore Girls again so I can be totally ready for the reboot. DH and I are watching Downton Abby and Breaking Bad now too, finally.
ETA: date clarifications

@Megzb510 Your GTKY, while not exactly what I was going to put down for mine, is all stuff that I do! I'm even a couple seasons behind on house of cards! And HIMYM is the best
@HurricaneAmelia FX for good results for you today!
@felix08 Sorry for the BFN. Hugs. Enjoy those drinks tonight. Also True Detective season 1 is sooooo good though it took me a while to get into TBH.
@FrancesGrace630 Yay for CHs!
Month/Cycle: 4/4
CD/DPO: 34/7
Timing: -4, -3, -1, 0
Testing: 10 DPO, but my resolve is slipping because of the possibility that I O'd a few days earlier. I'm letting the BSC in. I really don't think (despite my weird chart this month) that I did O at that earlier date though. So I'm doing my best to hold out.
R/R/CS: So DH said things yesterday about having a 'feeling' this was a good month through text while I was at work (as a response to me asking "why do you keep asking about how I feel this month, etc"). When I got home I asked him to elaborate and he said idk I literally feel like there is some type of shift and I feel good about it. Can we talk about cue the major BSC?! How am I not going to have my hopes up now?!
GTKY: what's your favorite show to binge watch?
At night I almost always watch either Friends, HIMYM, the Office, or sometimes scrubs. Once I 'start' one I will watch the whole thing through before I move on to another. The Office tends to end up in the rotation more often. Other than that I binge watch so many different shows when they pop on Netflix it would take me forever to list them here. So I figure my 'repeats' are good enough.

R/R/CS: Temp drop today after BFN yesterday, I guess AF is on the way. Just really bummed, I felt this month was really good. Guess not good enough.
GTKY: what's your favorite show to binge watch? HIMYM, Blacklist, and I've binged watched the first season of Prison Break like 3 times because it was that good.
@MelissaM090 Sorry about BFN. FX for testing tomorrow. I binged watched HIMYM last year… I was obsessed; still not sure how I feel about the ending. I have been meaning to watch OITNB but have to finish PLL first..damn you Netflix for destroying my productivity haha
@Megzb510 Sorry about BFN. I tried to watch House of Cards but was having trouble with getting past the 1st episode. I have been told its really good and it just starts off slow so that’s still on my list!
@HurricaneAmelia SS can get to the best of us! Its so hard not to SS! Props to the ladies who can keep that under control because most months I cant as hard as I try - I’m right there with you – 34 and was surprised when my doctor mentioned sending me to RE after 6 months (technically there already but I told her I wanted to chart for 6 months first before going that route so we have 1 more cycle) I totally understand your sadness and frustration sending creepy internet hugs
@lisswastaken ah Golden Girls. Loved that show growing up…and how can you not love Betty White?
@felix08 sorry about BFN L I hope you enjoy your party tonight!
@FrancesGrace630 Congrats for CH!
@Buthayna Yes! I love Baby Daddy too. My SO rolls his eyes when I watch it haha
@writeress Congrats on CH!
@Kenya715 I never really watched Gilmore Girls when it was on but have heard nothing but good things. Is it true its coming back? If so, I may have to add it to my growing list!
@AliciaGoose my BSC usually sets in around 7dpo too lol
@BusinessWife One day at a time is a great motto. I try to do same.

@Marley629 - OMG Gilmore Girls is the best! Yes, it's coming back as a 4 part movie on Netflix this summer.
@buthayna haha! I've always wondered how to spell "the uge" because I love saying it in real life, but it just never comes off right in writing.
@kenya715 Glad you are feeling better today--enjoy your lazy day! Also, Breaking Bad is soooo good. Probably my favorite series of all time. And then you can watch Better Call Saul!
@aliciagoose I will definitely enjoy my drinks--thanks! And, yes, I've really enjoyed True Detective--one episode to go. I've heard the second season isn't as good, though? Also, I hope your DH's premonition is right!
@marley629 Aaah PLL..I have a love/hate relationship with that show. I love it, but I hate that it NEVER ENDS!!

Timing: -2, -1
Testing: I've decided I'm going to try to hold out until next Saturday; a friend's having a birthday thing and I figure testing beforehand will help inform my decision of whether or not to drink...
R/R/CS: Not a fan of the crummy Saturday weather we've got over here. The last thing I need today is to be cooped up, but the forecast is calling for rain all day, and the temperature isn't supposed to hit above 50.
DH just came home from the grocery store and surprised me with some non-dairy Ben and Jerry's, which has me very excited because a) I've been grumbling about our store not carrying it since the stuff came out, but now it looks like they finally are, and b) it's the peanut butter flavor, which is the one I most wanted to try! MAYBE IT WILL NOT BE SUCH A CRUMMY DAY AFTER ALL
Also, does anyone have any recommendations for lengthening luteal phase other than B6? Mine's enough on the short side (10-11 days) that it has me a little worried, but I tried B6 and something about it just made me feel weird, even when I started cutting my 100 mg pills in half.
GTKY: what's your favorite show to binge watch?
I always seem to get binge-fatigue partway through any show I do this with and then give up on it entirely (see: The Walking Dead, especially, but others too), but back in college I binged my way through the first four season of Lost and it was probably the most satisfying binge watching experience I've had. My favorite show to re-watch - though I can't sustain binging on it - is probably The Wire, though.

R/R/CS: As I mentioned above I'm not sure how much I trust my chart, but I had another high temp today so I'm taking it as a good sign

@Buthayna Instead of resurrecting yesterday's thread, I'll just respond here. Thanks for the information! I might have to try the gel stuff you mentioned. My acne has been awful since coming off BC, and it is very cyclical, like you mentioned. I really need to just stop wearing makeup for a while to maybe give my skin a break...but that's the only thing that keeps me looking decent!
@BusinessWife My H loves Fringe! I need to try that one next.

@MrsRoss89 Ah, darn DHs! It would be nice if they were right but make it that much harder if they were wrong.
@NurseMarie9 Sorry for the temp drop. Hugs.
@egilona Ah, that Ben and Jerry's sounds amazing. Enjoy.
@antoto Happy weekend! Also yes hopefully that temp is a good sign you're in the right place.
@klstone25 My DH watched Master of None and liked it, but I just couldn't get into it. I'm not sure why.
@pretzel2plus1 @Buthayna Adult acne is the worst. I was just talking to DH about needing to go back to the dermatologist because my breakouts have been horrible the past month. I'm hoping it was just a weird month and I'll go back to my normal. Next month. But honestly my normal is too much as well. I've been super good about taking my foundation off with a cloth every night and changing my pillow cases often too.
