R/R: Woohoo Friday! Hoping for an uneventful day today (aka no patient emergancies) because I'm in total weekend mode already.
CS/Q: Nope.
GTKY: What is one thing you really appreciate about your SO? In the 3ish years I have lived with my DH I think I have done laundry a total of 2-3 times? He ALWAYS does it... but I also think he likes it. Either way, fine with me!
Happy Friday, ladies!!! Finally got my CH this morning!
Month/Cycle: 8
CD/DPO: 21/4
Timing: -2,-1, O
Testing: weekend of the 3rd
R/R: it's Friday and it's beautiful out!!!! Can't wait to get out of work even though I just sat down at my desk
CS/Q:
GTKY: What is one thing you really appreciate about your SO? How calm, level headed, and optimistic he is , especially with this whole TTC process. Also, just how he treats people. He's one of the nicest people ever (even though I sometimes roll my eyes at him with how nice he is)
R/R: So yesterday was a hard day with everything going on with my brother. I didn't get a chance to come back and tag all you ladies and say thank you for your support. Today I decided will be a good day, no matter what. It will be a busy day and I have some aggravating meetings, but it will be a good day regardless. Rant: there is this weird smell in my office, I swear it smells like hot dogs, it's driving me insane and I feel like I am losing my mind. Also it's not helping the BSC.
CS/Q: nothing to see here.
GTKY: What is one thing you really appreciate about your SO?
He's a really kind person, a gentleman and given the family he was raised in I really appreciate his progressive thinking.
@jjmno1616 so my husband does the laundry as well, but I swear he only does it because the laundry room is next to the basement where his gaming station is so he can sit there and play video games while he waits for the laundry. And in his mind doing laundry is putting it in the washer, then the dryer, then the clothes basket. Then it magically is folded, hung and put away.
@jess0211 we also have a cloth folding/putting away ninja in our house. Sidenote: I saw your post yesterday, I'm glad you're moving into today with a positive attitude
@Dilynne I am no expert with FF, especially just basing the info on temps. Are you using OPKs as well?
@Dilynne yhat is odd. You don't have any other cm notes or opks to give it? Wanna x-post in the CS thread to get more eyes on it? Sorry about your fall... :( ouchie!!!!
@50wife@businesswife I have never turned an OPK so I stopped using them. As for CM, that was the first and only time I ever noticed it. I'll go cross post in the CS thread, thanks!
@jess0211 My DH is good about folding everything he just doesn't put my stuff away which is fine with me because then I would never be able to find anything. I do secretly hate the way he folds pants but I would never dare complain about that! It's a small price to pay for not having to do my own laundry lol
@Dilynne Ouch! So sorry to hear about your fall... I also agree with businesswife that you should consider posting in the chart stalk thread! I can see why you would be confused.
Month/Cycle: 15 (NTNP 1year, month 3 since starting FET prep)
CD/DPO: 21/1dp5dt (1 day post 5 day transfer- the equivalent of 6dpo)
Timing: FET yesterday
Testing: my beta is 3/5, but let's be real my BSC is not going to let me wait that long. I will probably be a nut and test on Tuesday or Wednesday just to torture myself.
R/R: I'm just super excited to finally be in TWW!
CS/Q:
GTKY: What is one thing you really appreciate about your SO? He is incredibly calm and rock solid. Nothing rattles him. I
@JJMNO1616 Super jealous. DH can't be trusted to do our laundry! @ktcakes87 Sorry to hear about CD1 Hopefully next month is it for you! @50Wife & @heatherdubrow Glad you're here!
Month/Cycle: 2/1
CD/DPO: 27/7
Timing: -4, -2, -1, +1
Testing: 3/2 or 3/3
R/R: Rave: So happy Friday! Rant: I'm hungry and approaching hangry.... my students better watch out until lunchtime!
CS/Q: Nah, not today.
GTKY: What is one thing you really appreciate about your SO? He's a very considerate and level-headed person. He brings me back to reality when I need a voice of reason and he's been so supportive of my family and all of their craziness. I got lucky! My biggest complaint it that he's the loudest chewer ever and it drives me absolutely crazy when we're eating and there's not music/noise to distract me.

JJMNO1616 That's so great! My DH does most of the cleaning too! (I do help though!) 50Wife Nice DH's are the best! jess0211 Ugh... so sorry the family stress is taking over! I'm smelling maple (lol) so I'm right there with you! Dilynne Eek! Hope you aren't hurt too badly! Your chart still looks like you could've ovulated on CD18, but that would be a long LP.. is that typical for you? Its also possible you did O and now you are headed back below the coverline (pre AF),or that you have not yet and are having a long cycle and FF is still waiting for definite signs of O. The problem is probably not enough info/signs with irregular temps. Since you only charted one day of CF its hard for ff to predict. ktcakes87 sorry for CD1... will be stalking you in WTO
CD/DPO: 30/ 6 DPO
Timing: -4, -3, -2, -1
Testing: Unless AF beats me to it, 10DPO and 12DPO (Anyone else testing on the 28th and/or 2nd?)
R/R: Its Friday, the weather is beautiful and we are closing early due to a building wide electrical shut down! How can there be a rant on a day like this???
CS/Q: none at the moment
GTKY: What is one thing you really appreciate about your SO? That one of his biggest focuses is to make me happy. He'd do almost anything to make me happy.
Morning ladies! I took a little bump break for the month of February to get my head and heart a little more right as it's the lovely full year mark and am happy to jump back in with you all Happy Friday!!!
Month/Cycle: 15 with benched cycles
CD/DPO: 19/0
Timing: Today should be O day and DH and I got in a BD early this morning so I am super happy about that!!
Testing: not nearly yet
R/R: It's fri-yay, it's going to be 75 today, some of veggies began sprouting in my new organic garden and DH and I BD'd this morning on fingers crossed O day. Nothing will get me down today! Not even his pile of work, nope!
CS/Q: Nothing here today
GTKY: What is one thing you really appreciate about your SO? He always thinks of everything. He remembers little things that help make me comfortable that I would forget and always has me in mind whenever he makes a decision. I love that man so much.
@JJMNO1616 that gif - yes! @50wife hooray for CHs!! @jess0211 oh man - hot dogs? I would die. I hate the smell of hot dogs haha @ktcakes87 sorry for CD1 *hugs* @heatherdubrow ahhhhh so happy you are here!!!!! All the fingers and toes crossed for you!! How is DH doing?
@JJMNO1616 I wish my SO would do laundry! So jealous!
@jess0211 Still thinking about you and your brother, hope the rest of your day goes well.
Month/Cycle: 11 cycles, 6 TTCAL

Timing: -5, -3, 0
Testing: Not yet.
R/R: Fiance went to the doctor's last night for an allergic reaction to an insect bite (he is the stubborn type when it comes to doctors and medicine), needless to say he didn't take the medicine and complained to me yet again that he was beyond itchy. You'd think if he wanted to feel better, he'd follow instructions LOL!
CS/Q:
GTKY: What is one thing you really appreciate about your SO? I love that he is almost always level headed, I could be freaking out about something and he'll nonchalantly come up to me and have the answers I need for that exact moment or know what to say to calm me down.

Yay! I'm probably testing Tuesday as well! We can make it Testing Tuesday! I guess we're both 6 DPO? (you're 1 day post 5 day xfer, right?)
R/R: Rave: Mom’s night out tonight at local Mexican restaurant. Can.Not.Wait. Rant: Still with this damn head cold. Over it.
CS/Q: Nope, my chart is looking real pretty right now (which I know doesn’t necessarily mean anything, but still, it’s nice to look at).
GTKY: I really appreciate how hard he works for our family. He puts in crazy hours at the office and rarely asks for a break from the family (I on the other hand am the queen of requesting girls nights out and girls trips away). (Love this question today, as I woke up basically wanting to kick him in the shins because I was up last night with the baby while he “slept.”)
Testing: I took a FRER today, optimistically, which was negative
R/R: really busy/stressful day at work yesterday, which infiltrated/interrupted my dreams and sleep last night. Posting from my lukewarm bath. Eating yogurt and granola by candlight. Ain't so bad.
CS/Q: do you make anything of the up and down temps here in the luteal phase? I think I've been mouth breathing, plus last night I slept so poorly I charted 30 min early. But it's bumming me out inexplicably.
GTKY: What is one thing you really appreciate about your SO?
he just brought me breakfast! And he's a wizard with the tinier humans. Like pied piper status.

orbmaker Id love to see some of your other charts just to see how they compare.... Do you normally have regular high LP temps? If so I would think probably some of the things you mention (like mouth breathing) could be affecting your temps. The main thing is that all of your temps are well above the cover line, which is the most important thing. I would try not to worry right now unless it starts dipping to the line.
@dragonette505 Thanks for this response! I kinda wish I'd temped a few months before I knew we were going to start trying, but this is actually my first pass. I'm so green!
orbmaker No worries! Right now just assume its "normal" and keep temping. Hopefully you wont have to make another chart! heatherdubrow OMG! now it feels so soon! lol
@heatherdubrow I did a happy dance this morning for you thinking about that little emby settling in! i'm going to stalk the hell out of you in the least creepy way! @orbmaker my temps are always a bit rocky, I wouldn't stress about it too much, yours really aren't that bad. Sorry about the BFN.

TTC 1/2012 Diagnosed : unexplained infertility 6 rounds of IUI and a MC 2/2014, rainbow twins 4/2015 TTC #3 5/2016 Restarted Fertility tx IUI 2 rounds, baby girl 12/17
Testing: Maybe tomorrow morning (Sunday, as it's Saturday am here)
R/R: Originally I was going to wait to test but of course I'm going BSC. I'm smelling weird things, my boobs are bigger, and my stomach is a bit acidy (but no vomiting). I want to take the test with FMU and I peed already but if I wait till the week then DH won't be home.
CS/Q:
GTKY: What is one thing you really appreciate about your SO? He does a lot of little things for me. Like this morning he had an alarm go off to go take our Sheltie for her poop walk. I asked him to take the Maltese out for a pee so I wouldn't have to. The Maltese doesn't go on walks like the Sheltie does so he walked the Sheltie, came back, and brought the Maltese out. Then he did the dishes and made me coffee.
CD/DPO:. Just guessing since I am not charting until next month. Between 9-11 dpos
Timing: timing was ok
Testing: tested today. Will text again in 2 days
R/R:. Rant- we decided to try again for a 3rd last week. So we did. But he wants to wait a few more months now to avoid the holidays and our kids birthdays, which I don't. It is not completely decided, but it is frustrating.
CS/Q:
GTKY: What is one thing you really appreciate about your SO? He is a neat freak, so my house it always clean.
@dragonette505 I will be joining you and @heatherdubrow on Tuesday, but only because I'm seeing the perinatologist that day. I've had a fever on and off, so I can't even confirm O really... so not high hopes, especially if it is 8 dpo then, but nonetheless it will be happening.
It's funny how it's the little things in life that mean the most...not where you live, or what you drive, or the price tag on your clothes... There's no dollar sign on a piece of mind, this I've come to know! *ZBB*
@heatherdubrow@dragonette505 Well now, after two days of low temps following four high temps, I'm gonna say they were all due to fever and upper respiratory infection and remove myself from the pee pact. I haven't been doing the daily threads because I wasn't quite sure. Back to waiting.
