    Month/Cycle: 19/20

    CD/DPO: CD 20

    Timing: -4, -1 and O (I think!) 

    Testing: Unsure. I've had a bit of a strangle cycle? Please read rant below...

    R/R: So, I've been MIA for a little while here on TB. Not really even lurking, just taking a mental break. I have missed you ladies, and I think it's time to gently ease myself back in to the community again, so hello to old and new 'faces'.
    I've finally grown a pair of balls, and booked an appointment with my GP this week to discuss what possibly might be going on with me/us and TTC.
    My previous cycle has been a bit 'strange', so I'm going to have a chat with her.
    I want some bloods drawn to check on my hormones. I had a light bleed for 2 days, when I was meant to be ovulating?! I know some women can and do have this happen, but I've never had that, so it confused me.
    I hadn't been doing OPK's that cycle, and I don't temp, so I presumed it was my period coming (having a super short cycle) and wrote the cycle off. 
    Weirdly though, my period came 2 weeks later, when I'd have "usually" expected it?! Again, it was light. 
    Again, this has never happened before?!
    Now, I know you're regular until you aren't, but this odd even for me. I've carried on TTC this cycle as normal, had positive OPK's when I would 'expect' to, so who knows really. Maybe it's stress related? Maybe my cycles are changing, I know that can happen, but we've been on this journey so long now, it's time to seek professional advise!
    Sorry for the long 'dear diary' post! Just needed to get that off of my chest! I'm nervous about the appointment!  

    CS/Q: Nothing.

    This is tough?! I'd say 'Black Adder', used to watch that as a kid with my Dad! I'm from the UK, so unsure if it's ever aired anywhere else?! 

    *Edited as I put the CD down wrong!

    @heatherdubrow omg I'd love a cleaning lady! I keep telling my husband I want to pay someone, I just don't have the time. If it comes down to cooking dinner or dusting, I'll cook dinner. 
    Also incase I don't get to it before then, good luck tomorrow!!!!

    @kiwi2628 Heyyy friend.  So glad to see you over here!

    @jess0211 yes at Friends! It's the best.

    Month/Cycle: 15/16

    CD/DPO: 23/3

    Timing: Good

    Testing: Not sure yet

    R/R: 

    CS/Q: Another slow rise this month. It always makes me feel out already when my temp takes forever to rise after O. It also makes O more ambiguous. It doesn't help that when I search for slow rise and fall back rise charts in FF there aren't too many pregnancy ones.. And quite a few m/c ones :/ Just really hoping we can do our first medicated cycle next month as planned.

    @heatherdubrow Ugh, I'm so sorry that you caught a cold. I'm just now starting to feel better from the one I caught last week.

    @TravelingCouple I feel you on the slow rise annoyance.  I had a quicker rise this month, but the past few months were as slow as molasses.  I feel like I always disagree with FF on O day with a slow rise and I can only retrospectively confirm O once my period starts. Grrrr

    Month/Cycle: TTA

    CD/DPO: 26/10

    R/R: Yesterday I went to pick up my groceries at the store after ordering everything online and they didn't have my order! Apparently something went wrong so now I have to go back to pick them up after work today. 

    CS/Q: I think I saw very very light spotting this mornings but my temp is still wayy above my CL so idk... maybe I'm just seeing things like that drive-by yesterday. 

    GTKY: What's your favorite sitcom of all time? Gifs encouraged.
    Gosh this is so hard for me... my "favorite" has changed overtime so idk if I can say "of all time" but this is one of my current faves. 



    @50Wife Sorry to hear about the spotting or at least the confusion over what may be happening. 

    @LadyMoo Welcome back and sorry to hear about your confusing cycles. Sounds like you are making the right decision to get in and see a Dr. 

    @jess0211 Hope your grandma starts to feel better and people keep you informed asap! Hugs about your brother and yay cake!

    @TravelingCouple I so feel you on the slow rise pattern. Both of the cycles I have been temping for now have been slow rise and it does worry me a bit for when we start TTC.  

    @JulesDP How do you retrospectively confirm O once AF comes?

    @JJMNO1616 My LP is pretty consistent, so I just count backwards.  It's mostly useless information, it just settles who was right about O: me or FF.

    safire3 Monday has me destroyed as well...ugh..
    kiwi2628 That's so awesome for your friend!
    50Wife   Are you temping this cycle? Maybe it is implantation spotting!
    LadyMoo  It cant hurt to get some blood tests
    jess0211  Ugh... so much family stress, fc your g-ma is going to be ok and things go well for your brother.
    KatieEl Sorry for CD1 :(:(
    heatherdubrow sux you caught that cold! Testing Tuesday!!!
    JulesDP OMG! you are on Testing Tuesday as well? Cool!
    TravelingCouple Fallback shift is pretty normal and shouldn't be a problem. Sometimes slow rise can (if temps stay generally low and close to the cl), but I think the main thing is that you should have sustained temps above the cl for your LP. 

     
    CD/DPO: 33/9DPO

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

    Testing: If AF doesn't come first I'll be testing TOMORROW and then 12 DPO (normal LP length)

    R/R: all rants today.... Its Monday, Its cold, I'm tired and I feel like my current crampy feelings feel like normal pre AF cramps so I'm bummed about that. Not confident about seeing any lines tomorrow, but since I love to poas, i'm still doing it! lol ....Okay, one rave, my skin looks very nice today. That always helps!

    CS/Q: no questions... but temp up today after Saturday's stupid dip (hate when my chart gives me implantation dip hopes but my body gives me AF vibes)

    @dragonette505 I am temping, but nothing that's really funny looking where I'd think it were implantation. Had a bit of a dip this morning from yesterday's temp, but still well above my CL. What would I be looking for? A bigger dip, if anything?
    This morning I have no sign that anything was ever funny last night soooo who the hell knows!! 

    And more Tuesday testing!! Good luck @JulesDP and @dragonette505  too!  Hope you guys and @heatherdubrow  have the best mornings ever tomorrow!

    Month/Cycle:      1/1

    CD/DPO:  19/2

    Timing:  Pretty good I think.  Every day from -7 to 0.  I hoped to get one more day in but poor DH finally gave out at +1.  Hard to fault the guy and if that's what keeps this from happening then it wasn't meant to be...

    Testing:  I think Wednesday, 3/8 at 11 DPO just because I leave for an out of town bachelorette party the next day.

    R/R:  Rave - H and I did really well for our first cycle and as much as this wait is going to test my patience, I'm happy the pressure is off.  Rant - My previously regular cycle was not so regular this month, so I'm lost on when to expect AF or an accurate pregnancy test.  First AF came 2 days late and then I ovulated 3 days late (so 5 days off total).  I normally wouldn't care but with this bachelorette party coming up I couldn't have timed this worse if I tried.

    CS/Q:  Any insight into the above would be very much appreciated, although I think I know the answer and it sounds like I won't be drinking while I'm away no matter the results.

    Month/Cycle: 2/1

    CD/DPO: 30/10

    Timing: -4, -2, -1, +1

    Testing: Uhh. Well, I told myself I wouldn't test until CD 13 on Thursday, but I tested this morning because I was feeling so optimistic, and I was unprepared for how deeply disappointed I felt at the stark white test. I know it's a little early, but man. I am also especially bummed because DH is getting excited and I feel like both of us will be let down.  Guys, I've lurked here for years and I'm just starting to fully understand what a mental/emotional workout this TTC thing is. Creepy internet hugs for all of you who've been dealing with this a lot longer than me. 

    R/R: See rant above I guess. Also, it's Monday :( 

    CS/Q: Nah, I don't think so.

    Hey Ladies.  I took several days off last week and I am pretty sure I O'd during that time so I hope it is OK that I am jumping in here.  

    @safire3 Sorry for BFN.
    @kiwi2628 Yay for your friend
    @KatieEl Sorry for CD1
    @heatherdubrow FX for your test tomorrow!!
    @TravelingCouple FX this cycle ends better than you think.
    @bagowater I am in the Job Hunt realm as well.  Good Luck to you!!

    Month/Cycle: 1

    CD/DPO: 16/4? (not temping)

    Timing: -4, -3, -1, 0 

    Testing: Not sure

    R/R: TW BFP's mentioned.  MIL (doesn't know we are trying) sent out an email over the weekend saying three of DH's cousins are pregnant two were "surprises" (the third was going through fertility treatments so we are especially ecstatic for them), and a forth cousin is having a C next week I think due to breach.  It was a mix of feeling kicked in the gut and hoping that we get some of the luck that seems to float around DH's family right now.

    CS/Q: When it comes to testing.  I am pretty sure I O'd on Thursday of last week.  This coming Friday I will be at an event that will have alcohol. I was planning on not testing till the 10th but now I am thinking maybe I should test Friday morning (the 3rd)? It will only be 8 DPO, and I know that is SUPER early.  Is it worth it to test?  If so should I use a cheapie or and FRER?

    Timing: meh

    Testing: extra mehhh

    R/R: Feeling crampy like I am finally going to start my period. So I guess that's good since the 55798 tests I've taken have been BFN. I know you're regular until you're not but that was the ONE thing I had going for me. Da fuq, body. Le sigh.

    Thanks @GG620! It works a little different here in the UK with NHS. You visit a GP, who then refers you to a specialist, who then decides what treatment you may need. It can be a fair wait to see said specialists, and it's probably quicker if you go 'private' but that route is rarely cheap. We will see what happens.

    R/R: Rant: I feel like garbage today, and trying my best to not 'symptom spot' but every once in a while my mind wanders there... I know I am SO early in this round of trying, that if I start now it's potentially going to be a long few months (or longer).

    Sorry @dragonette505 :s I can't complain yet, we haven't been really trying very long yet/ at all. My DH knows I've got BOTB but I know he's TTA, so I don't even feel right pretending like we "tried" this cycle at all. GL to you though! It's really pretty amazing/shitty how pregnancy symptoms and PMS are so similar

    Sorry I am late coming back to the party but my Mondays tend to suck like that. Thank you all for the support and kind words. I will be more active tomorrow when I'm off. 
    @GG620 you can't get any warmer than Florida. I feel you like the small town life there are lots of small towns north of Broward County. Housing is expensive however compared to some other states but that too is better the further you go from the big cities.
