    Month/Cycle: 1

    CD/DPO: 29, 15 DPO (likely... but could also be 14)

    Timing: -2, -1, +1

    Testing: soon

    R/R: I'm currently staying with my grandmother-in-law for a week. I volunteered to come here and stay with her while my in-laws, with whom she lives, are gone on a cruise, and so that her usual 5 day-a-week care worker could take some time off with her son while he visits from Beijing. I love my grandmother-in-law very much, but she is also 93, has 12 grandchildren of marriageable, baby-rearjng ages, and desperately wants a great-grandbaby, but has none. So she really puts the pressure on... I've seen her 4 times this year, and each time, the jokes about making a baby asap have become more and more sincere. When I arrived this time, she immediately asked me if I'm still getting my "monthlies." It put me in an awkward position, as I was on cycle day 27. DH and i havent shared with anyone that we are TTC. Only my BFF knows, and we weren't planning on sharing the news until end of first trimester. But I felt the need to explain the situation, because she prompted so explicitly. Now she's asking me after every meal (discreetly) if AF "monthlies" have come yet, and I'm regretting talking to her about it. I know it makes her happy to even know that we're trying, but it's still tough to deal with.

    GTKY: strangest gift? Probably this creepy porcelain doll that the woman who was then dating my dad gave me on our first meeting. I was 17 at the time, so it seemed particularly strange that I would receive a doll from a total stranger, but whatever.

    @Brooklyngirl6, your estrogen levels are probably just building. They're probably high (hence the OPK CD14) but not passing that elusive threshold to ovulation. Just do the baby dance and you'll get there eventually.

    @purplg8r, lol partly used gift-card. Did you find out at the register buying something with it, or did your student tell you?

    @dimsum4everyone ya know the part on the back of the gift card that you scratch off to get the number?  I noticed that was gone. 

    @hartmich I'm okay with the bfn but not the huge temp drop :(.

    Ah, @Sugargirl1019 a vacuum cleaner would have been a much better thing to ask for! Maybe it's not too late to change...

    @hartmich JT face FTW!  And we should probably send BFP vibes to someone else here... most likely wasted on me.  Thanks, though  <3

    @thebookisbetter I really want to go on the California Zephyr too! My H is not interested though since it's basically the same cost as flying to CA but takes way longer to get there. I really just want to enjoy the scenery though. Hopefully you can convince your DH.

    Yes, it's definitely not cheaper! Especially if you get one of the sleeper cars. That was my DH's first question too. Like you, I want to go for the experience and the scenery, I don't like planes and I haven't seen that part of the country before, so I think it would be awesome. I figure maybe I can get him to compromise, train there, plane back :-)

    @dragonfly87. I think ppl usually say to put in the lower temp - it would still be an open circle anyway, so shouldnt mess with your ch - but if it makes them dotted, dont worry.  Just notw the higher temp in the notes and the time, keep temping at your reg time if possible, and it may just turn out to be one weird blip on your chart this month.  No biggie! ;)
