  • Month/Cycle:  4/4

    CD/DPO: 21/?

    Timing: As good as it could get considering I'm not tracking anything for a few months

    Testing: If no AF by CD30

    R/R: I made amazing pumpkin muffins with a crumb topping AND whole wheat pasta with homemade sauce today. I also cooked up some chicken to put together lunch salads. DH and I (really just me) are going to be watching the 4 month old son of some people we know this Saturday night. We don't see them too often since we moved but DH has been at the same duty stations/training as her DH so they're career buddies. She and I don't get along too well but we're just different people so it's nice to see them.

    Also, since my lasik my acne between my eyes has been healing and I've started back up my at home acne scar treatments which are already showing a bit of improvement I think. My glasses always caused acne all the time on the bridge of my nose and between my eyebrows and it was painful and never healed because the glasses just press in all the oils/makeup/etc.

    CS/Q:

    GTKY: Do you have a dream car that you want to own? What is it?

    My dream mom car is a Honda Odessy but the edition with the built in vacuum haha. If I ever had more than 4 or 5 kids (will most likely never happen) I'd get a Nissan NV which is a 12 passenger van haha. I have a new Ford Focus that I like just fine but share with DH and DH wants to get a Jeep Grand Cherokee when we move back to the States which will become my mom car once we hit 2 or 3 kids since the Ford Focus has a tiny backseat. You can tell we've thought about this haha

  • @bumpybump your FIL sounds like my FIL. He likes to make decisions for my MIL, and doesn't always consult her. Thankfully my DH didn't pick that up either. It would drive me nuts and we certainly wouldn't be married if he did.
  • @bramblerose YW. :) also how wonderful of you to help out your neighbor. That is very sweet

    @bumpybump my dad can no longer come into town due to financial issues that came up, so it works out just fine. Though even if he was still coming he likes to see them. It's more of an annoyance that she assumes we are just sitting around doing nothing so she makes plans that gets to me. Over all though I have amazing ILs so I probably shouldn't complain ;)

  • I didn't post yesterday because  we were so busy, but came to say I'm officially out. Temps fell off a cliff yesterday  morning, followed by AF. It was rough. GL this cycle ladies!

  • @GeorgiaWife6912 I hope your day gets better!  Being a fellow mom, my question is, what's DH doing to help with finding care?  I mean, you're both the parents and should both be figuring it out (from experience, men seem to such at this)!  I'm pissed for you here. He needs to step up and help you figure this out!  

    @KhRun17 sorry for AF

  • @BrambleRose I share the same POAS disorder. The struggle is real. Or maybe I am a glutton for disappointment lol

    @osucma no, implantation dips are not apparent on every pregnancy chart. And just because you do have a temp dip, it's doesn't necessarily mean you're KU. I have a HUGE dip every cycle and it drives me batty with false hope. 


    Month/Cycle: 6/6

    Timing: -4,-3,-2,-1,O

    Testing: Saturday for drinking purposes 

    R/R: three of my college besties and I are reuniting this Saturday and I can't wait!!! One lives in Mississippi, one in Texas and one in Miami so it's safe to say we rarely have an opportunity to all get together. 

    CS/Q: Nope. I've been a mouth breather and I've become cynical so I'm not stressing my chart in the TWW. 

    GTKY: Do you have a dream car that you want to own? What is it?
    The impractical side of me says a Corvette. Ever since I was little I've said I wanted one. The practical side of me says a fully loaded white Jeep Laredo. I just got one of the new Ford Eacapes though and I really love it so my new car lust is satiated for the moment.

    @Shstephenson thank you for your input, and helping to keep my brain in check ;)
  • Month/Cycle: 2/2

    CD/DPO: 33/8

    Timing: EOD during FW

    Testing: waiting until 12 dpo (this Friday) 

    R/R: 

    CS/Q: I had some symptoms this weekend that I'm trying to be logical about. I guess it could be those good early symptoms that I want, or it could be that I'm getting AF at the end of the week. There has been some minor lower cramping, some boob soreness, some back soreness, some very light nausea, and I was for sure moody the last two days, for no real reason. And I swear I saw just the lightest spot of a little blood after wiping when I peed yesterday afternoon. Really going to wait it out until Friday to test. It will be 12 dpo and 12 is my lucky number, so I'm fairly confident I can wait until then. Will keep all posted!

    GTKY: Do you have a dream car that you want to own? What is it? sure i'll take a hunter green Range Rover SUV if someone is giving them out.

  • @osucma you don't have to have a temp dip to be KU but by the same token, a temp dip doesn't necessarily mean you are KU.  
    @bumpybump I couldn't handle a husband that didn't discuss things with me, especially major life decisions like that!  I dont know how your MIL handles FIL not discussing things!  I have irregular cycles, but my temps are consistent as far as in the same range.  Charts don't always look exactly the same cycle to cycle..  I've never really paid attention to or noticed one side causing higher/lower bbts than the other.
    @slavenski please come cook me all the foods.  Those sound AMAZING.  How fun to get some baby snuggles! Enjoy it! The new Odyssey's are awesome! They have so many features and mom-hacks haha.
    @bramblerose stay strong! You can make it to CD13.  Just try to keep yourself busy! I can totally understand wanting to make sure YH is the first to know.  And keeping a secret like that would be near impossible for me as well!
    @KhRun17 I'm sorry for CD1 :( I will be joining you soon! 
    @bumpybump He does help.  Until he started this new job last month, he took DS to school every day.  The problem now is he is working out of town and I have to be at work at 6:30, before his school is open.  So we've had to find a sitter to take him.  We now have mornings covered, but with me being on call, I have to report within an hour of being called and it would take MIL 40 min to get here if she left the second I called and then it's 35 min for me to work, so it's not possible. Unfortunately, they are not flexible with my timing at all.  It's just stressful.  
    @shstephenson college bff reunions are the best! I could use one myself! Have fun! How awesome y'all could all get together from across the country!
    @haylsbayls sorry for impending AF.  She's a B*t$h.  Also, the lexus SUVs are gorgeous!
    @peachy13  fx they are early symptoms. I totally get it... it's SO hard not to SS when you are aware of every twinge your body makes.

    GTKY: Do you have a dream car that you want to own? What is it?

    I dream car would be the car I own now, it’s a Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland.

    @bumpybump The car seat thing is huge fear of mine with my Jeep. My DH is 6’6” and I’m 5’8”. My SIL had baby last summer and her and I can make his seat work in my car if we put the seat on the passenger side (that’s where the “latch” system is anyway on the 2015) so that’s what DH and I  would have to do and make my DH drive everywhere. :(

  • @georgiawife6912 thanks! I don't have a temp dip, mine actually keep rising.
    @laurad75 sorry for your BFN :(
    @britters314 what an interesting bike! I have never seen something like that before. I like it!
    @kiki75 I love classic cars. They look so much better than today's.

  • @Mrs_Jp yeah, we have an Overland too (pretty sure all trim packages are the same size inside though). I'm 5'7" and don't like riding in the passenger side much.  It's really a PITA for taller people with car seats. I wish the back seats could move back like the Equinox does.  We keep DD in the safest spot, the middle, and use the seat belt since there's no latch for the middle. (No big deal) I'm a bit obsessed with car seat safety, especially since I used to work in a product safety role. But you do what works for you :)

  • @adirat thanks! Sorry about your negatives :(
  • Month/Cycle: 2

    CD/DPO: 25/10

    Timing: ok, if FF is correct

    Testing: bfn today.  Maybe Thursday.

    R/R: Lots of work to do today and totally sick.  TMI Spent yesterday throwing up at everything.  Which of course made even DH go "maybe you are pregnant".  Nope, totally not.  Now just sick and having to work from home through it.  I hate being an adult sometimes.

    CS/Q:  na

    GTKY: Do you have a dream car that you want to own? What is it?  Not really.  I don't have a car payment now and don't want one.
  • @adirat sorry for the BFN. But it is still early! When I got on TB this morning I immediately looked to see if you had posted yet. And your DH does make a very valid point about Thanksgiving  ;)

  • @osucma and @shstephenson Aww, thanks ladies. Yeah, he's definitely right about Thanksgiving! It makes up for the fact that now HE is going BSC with symptom-spotting. I had some weird anxiety/shakiness on Saturday, and on Sunday morning, he asked if I was feeling better and immediately said, "I bet it's because you are pregnant!" Not helpful. How can I keep the SS under control with him doing it too???

    @britters314 I saw your post about hypothyroid in the IF check-in. I take levoxyl for my hypothyroid. It look me more than a year to get on the right med and dosage for me -- partially because at first I was seeing an incompetent doctor and partially because it takes time to titrate the dose. I started out on the generic levothyroxine, which did nothing for me. (I started out on 25mcg of levothyroxine and actually felt WORSE. At a higher dose it evened out.) I then tried synthroid, which improved my numbers but not my symptoms. When I got on levoxyl, it was like night and day. Within a week I had so much more energy and my eyebrows started growing back. Every symptom resolved other than always feeling cold (which I still have and assume will never go away). For your first appointment, I recommend keeping a log of your symptoms between now and then so you can bring something comprehensive with you to the doctor. My endocrinologist often asked about things I didn't associate with hypothyroid (such as bowel movements) and I wasn't always able to reply. But sure enough, when I got to the right meds, I haven't been constipated since. Happy to chat more if you have questions!



  • @GeorgiaWife6912 You disappeared this weekend! I was looking for you in the grad thread and in the June intros haha. Sorry about your long cycle - do you usually have long cycles?

    @osucma my MIL is the same! Like we are just sitting around waiting for her to make plans for us

    @KhRun17  sorry you are out! I'll be following you soon 

    @britters314 My neighbor drives her kids around in a very similar bike! Except her bucket part is on the back rather than the front

    @adirat  FX it was too early and this is your cycle!

  • I have a secondary question if someone can answer it...

    what the heck is a triphasic pattern. I read what FF defined but how do you identify it on your own chart?

  • @vflux33  It's so hard not to test daily, stay strong!

    @GeorgiaWife6912 oh that must be so frustrating!

  • **Can't function with technology today, this is the post that accompanies the big obnoxious chart, so sorry everyone


    @KhRun17 sorry for CD1, treat yourself
    @GeorgiaWife6912  sorry to hear that it seems as if CD1 is coming
    @adirat FX for you that it was too early and I am going to steal that mentality for Thanksgiving. DH and I are having his family over and it would be 10000000000000x better if I can have some liquid happiness. Also, woud you mind another chart stalk? I believe this time through is more evidence I O'd earlier than FF says and my coverline is high.
    @bumpybump If you get any more information on different temperatures I would be really interested in hearing! I am only on my second cycle of temping but looking at the charts they look as if they are two different people. Last mongth pre-O temps were 96.7-97.1 and post O hovered around 97.8. This time through is totally different!


    Month/Cycle: 4/4

    CD/DPO: 22/6

    Timing: -2, -1

    Testing: next Saturday for drinking purposes- not hopeful

    R/R: Monday, ugh have a super busy week and just have to power through

    CS/Q: if anyone would like to chart stalk I would love some input. As it stands with today's drop I am thinking I O'd on CD13 and should have a lower coverline. There are some confounding variables... Got my flu shot CD12 and had a mild fever during the day on CD13 (99). DH had a flu/strep throat situation for CD10-CD17 so that was horrible sleep next to a snoring furnace. Last month's coverline was 97.2. Of course I know it doesn't make a difference,  just trying to get better at interpretation!

    I drive a toyota yaris hatchback right now. Any car is my dream car.

  • @WillRunForWine21  Just based on temps, CD 13 makes the most sense, but it doesn't match up with any of your other signs, so I'm skeptical. You'll probably just have to wait it out and see. If you get 2 more temps below your current coverline, FF will probably move your CH to CD 13.
