R/R: I took a TB break yesterday. I've been in such a bitter/depressed mood. After this mornings fiasco maybe I should of taken another day off lol.
CS/Q:
GTKY: What is your favorite swimsuit? Bonus if you can include the brand! Started this for selfish reason since I need to get a new suit for the summer.

CS/Q: nope
GTKY: What is your favorite swimsuit? Bonus if you can include the brand!
I was devastated when VS swimsuits closed up shop. I switched over to Venus and picked up a bikini before my last cruise. So far so good. Great fit and pretty decent quality, easy returns.
Testing: lolz I tested at 4dpo because I've been slightly nauseous all week. I'm going to try and wait until 12dpo because H has a big week at work and I don't want to distract him if there's good news!
R/R: our downtown condo officially went on the market today. We are sad to say goodbye because that was our first real home together. We are loving the suburbs now but we loved that place. Hoping it sells quick though!

@haylsbayls VS was my go to for YEARS. Loved the price point, that you could mix and match etc. We have a pool so the chlorine is pretty hard on our swimsuits. I don't like to spend too much money knowing they'll last 2 years, three years at most.
R/R: It is a month roll-over today and I started spotting, so I also think it
will become a cycle roll-over today. My heart is being stabbed
100000000 times. I have difficult clients coming in today and I am pretty sure I am gonna fire one of them today (yes, your vet or doctor or anyone can fire you, not just you to them).
Just call me Mary Fucking Sunshine over here.

@mispanda sorry for the rough morning. sometimes a break is good. I think there is one in my future too. @cdnrunning GL to your pup this weekend! @haylsbayls GL with selling your condo and holding out until 12 dpo! FX for you! @kiwi2628 I literally could have written your rant today. I'll probably be rolling over to 5/5 shortly. Hug to you sister.

R/R: Super down today. All signs point to AF showing up at some point. Also, it's snowing. I ran out of half and half so I had to go to Dunkin for coffee and since I was in a crap mood I decided to get a donut. Bad choice. Dunkin Donuts donuts are literally terrible. So it didn't help at all.
CS/Q: Yesterday I had a few specks of blood when I went to the bathroom. This morning, blood when wiping with FMU. But a temp increase as well, so now I'm combing my chart looking to see if O date could be off. LP is normally 15 days so for AF to show up anytime over the weekend would mean O was not on CD 15. Opinions welcome

R/R: It’s Friday! I started the new show
called Time After Time last night and I really like it so far! I usually try
out new shows and give them at least a couple of episodes before I cut them if
I don’t like them. It doesn’t look like I’m going to cut this one.
CS/Q: No
GTKY: What is your favorite swimsuit? Bonus if you can
include the brand! I’ve never really liked wearing
swimsuits but I love swimming. The one I have right now is a tankini from
Target and I only bought it for my honeymoon that was 2.5 years ago. My parents
moved and no longer have a pool and my husband doesn’t like to swim in public
pools (germaphob!)
@mispanada – sorry about your bad mood! I hope things get
better soon!
@haylsbayls – I really wanted to test today but I wanted
to wait for the weekend as well as to not distract my DH at work either way.
Also, if we get good news then we have all day to celebrate.
@kiwi2528 – your gif is freaky! I don’t know about
everyone else but it keeps flashing. So sorry for your spotting and month roll
over.
@RVAmom315 – Beluga whales are cute though! LOL Idk if you’ve
seen Finding Dory but there’s a beluga whale (voiced by Phil Dumphy from Modern
Family) and he’s a great character. But I’m right there with you, it takes me
lots of swimsuits to find one that I feel “skinny enough” in.

@mispanda- So sorry you're having a bad day. Hope it gets better! Its Friday!
@cdnrunning- the hunt test sounds like so much fun! We thought about trying to make our lab a hunting dog but we never committed to it.
@haylsbayls- Good luck with selling your condo! Where I am it is a huge sellers market and things are coming off the market as soon as they go on. Hope it's the same for you.
@kiwi2628- Sorry for the bad day so far. Hope it gets better for you. Spoil youself this weeknd.
@SoldiersMom- sorry to hear about your rough morning. Hope it turns better. Also, sorry to hear about the snow. I think its coming our way this weekend.

R/R: I recently got a fit bit blaze and my lovely hubby pointed out to me the theory that you can predict pregnancy by watching your heart rate. Now I have something new to obsess over and I am seriously contemplating returning the fit bit.
CS/Q:
GTKY: What is your favorite swimsuit? Just like a lot of you pointed our, VS suits were the best! Loved them and still have a couple pieces that I wear from time to time. Other than that I buy from all over the place.

Testing: bfn yesterday, will test again tomorrow morning
R/R: I am sick. Miserable, headaches, nausea, fever. And I am again wondering if my O date was wrong. I didn't temp this month, and I feel like I was cramping for about 3 solid weeks. But my luteal phase was 15 days for all my previous charts, so I guess something should happen soon.
CS/Q:
GTKY: What is your favorite swimsuit? Bonus if you can include the brand! I really don't have a go to. I hate swim suit shopping.
@LaurenEG14 not to add to the crazy but I have had a Fitbit for the past year and my resting heart rate increases in line with ovulation and falls right before AF. *****TW***** when I was pregnant last time my resting heart rate stayed up and continued to rise. At about 6 weeks it started to drop and I actually called the doctor because I was concerned. They basically told me I was nuts, but turns out I had a MMC and the drop in heart rate aligned with when the baby stopped growing. ****end TW**** Now every TWW I obsessively check my Fitbit. I love it too much for other things to ever get rid of it though
@kiwi2628 so sorry girl. I hope today goes okay with your clients. Hugs!
@RVAmom315 sorry for the bfn. Glad you're calling the RE sooner rather than later!

R/R: so the struggle was real today. I peed in a cup...and then it started snowing really bad and I had to leave for work earlier. Then I realized I ran out of wondfos and only had a 3 pack of clearblues that I ordered cheaper on amazon and decided to save it, dumped the pee cup and moved along!
CS/Q: none
GTKY: What is your favorite swimsuit? Bonus if you can include the brand! i loved VS ones so sad they are gone!
TigerCakes Thanks for the info! So sorry for your loss. That is kind of crazy that all of that lines up. From what I've read, it sounds like a lot of women have similar situations. I actually did notice that my HR was WAY up on Sunday which was my assumed O day based on OPK. The day after O it stayed way up and then dropped way back down to normal on 2 dpo. Has pretty much stayed normal since. I do love the blaze for a lot of things so I don't think I can get rid of it but I need to find a way to get a handle on the crazy and not watch my HR like a hawk.
Me: 29 DH:30 Dating 03/31/2011 Married 10/18/2014 DS Born 12/28/2017 TTC #2 06/2019
R/R: I've decided to come join y'all over here because I'm 99% sure I ovulated yesterday considering OPKs, CM, and a temp spike this morning. Hoping this isn't wishful thinking, especially because I'm at a conference until Sunday without DH and our timing would be pretty good if that's the case

Testing: Blood test at RE March 20, will probably do a home test around 10 DPO, knowing me
R/R: I got a call from the RE this AM saying that my insurance wont cover the Ovidrel unless I submit a form which I have to GO INTO the clinic to fill out...and the clinic is 45 min away and I'm not suppose to go there for another 2 weeks. So regardless I had to pay $97 bucks today when normally me + DH insurance covers everything. Also, DH and I have been in poor financial situations (I just finished school in December and I paid for it out of my pocket)....so we don't use credit cards anymore and only have one that we are trying to pay off. The clinic needed a credit card on file to bill whatever we owed for drugs, I asked if I could just come in and pay it because we dont use credit cards and she said no....my rant is our credit card dependant society and how its just expected that you have one available to use. It's also super embarassing when you have to say that you don't have one and people look at you like you're some broke/irresponsible person. Sorry that I pay for everything in cash! End rant!
CS/Q: *TMI* I had some super creamy CM this morning, so of course I started SS....even though it's way too early for anything.
GTKY: What is your favorite swimsuit? Bonus if you can include the brand! I don't have the brand but I just wear one that I bought at Walmart. My favourite styles are the high-waisted/vintage ones.

Month/Cycle: 12/8
CD/DPO: 30/12 (FF is drunk--I did not O on CD14 like my chart suggests, if you stalk it) Edit: I removed my false positive OPK from CD12 and FF moved my CHs back to CD18 (although they're dotted now)!
Timing: -5, -4, -3, -1
Testing: Okay, so I caved and tested Wednesday night. So only 10dpo and not FMU. I decided that my "boobs felt weird" and I needed to test right that second. Glaring BFN. (DH & his optimism was like, "Are you sure?!" and stared at it for minutes. Come on, man, it's clearly stark white.)
R/R: Rant: Holy SS, Batman! Rave: It's Friday!
CS/Q: Okay, I've read that CM doesn't matter in the TWW. Is that true?
GTKY: What is your favorite swimsuit? Bonus if you can include the brand! Argh, I know it's from Nordstrom, but not the brand. It's actually my only one-piece, but it's a v-neck with an open back and an open-ish strip running down from the v-neck. Sexyish one-piece! Haha.
@mispanda Wait...what was this morning's fiasco?! I'm sorry you're feeling bitter/depressed. It's so tough. I'm glad you take time away when you need it, though! @cdnrunning Oh my gosh weimaraners are so dang gorgeous! @haylsbayls Congrats on selling your place! I totally get how that could be sad because of nostalgia though. @kiwi2628 Oh no, I'm sorry. @fresh76 Sorry the RE won't let you do IUI! @RVAmom315 Glad you're figuring out the RE situation! @SoldiersMom We don't have DD here but this girl always posts about how much she loves the brownie batter donuts (that I think are seasonal around Valentine's Day?) and I always super wanted to try one! Now I feel less jealous about it. @justkeepswimming8 DH doesn't really like swimming or the beach and I'm like...you're gonna have to get over that if we have kids--they're doing swimming lessons and we are taking family beach trips and that is that! Hahaha. @LaurenEG14 I had heard that about heart rate. I'm glad I'm not currently wearing my Fitbit because I know I'd obsess over that and I already am over my temps... @Hollyl321 Sorry for the BFN! @beachbunnyxo123 That is some willpower! @Rejufsovelem I am so happy we made it to Friday. @georgiagirl3050 FX yesterday was your O day! @vintageandrea90 I so wish I lived in Canada right now (or insurance in the US wasn't mostly shit). I'm the opposite, I pretty much never have cash on me! @Redpuma119 TTC does get really rough. I think being on here is mostly helpful for me, but some days it adds to the gloom.
MJDsquared what do you mean by CM mattering during TWW? Like what type you have? From what I have read, CM is not a reliable indicator of pregnancy. It can and does change, but it is not something that will tell you if you are knocked up. Hope that helps!
@mispanda - Take as many breaks as you need! TTC is hard and sometimes depressing work! @cdnrunning - Doing a hunt test sounds really cool! My dogs are lucky that I take them for walks! @haylsbayls - In a dream world where I win the lottery, I would love to have a condo downtown and a farm right outside of town. I hope it sells fast. Paying two mortgages isn't fun! @kiwi2628 - Rolling over months and cycles always sucks. I don't think it'll ever get any easier. @fresh76 - The anticipation would kill me! FX you won't even need a higher dose next month! @SoldiersMom - Maybe you O'd on CD16, but I wouldn't think any later than that. And I also hate swimsuits. @Hollyl321 - Sorry for the BFN. FX tomorrow will be different. @beachbunnyxo123 - I don't think I've ever peed in a cup and not tested before. That's some crazy will power. @Rejufsovelem - Nice timing during FW! @georgiagirl3050 - Welcome to TWW! @vintageandrea90 - Your GIF sums it up perfectly. @MJDsquared - Sorry for your BFN. I've read that you are more likely to see creamy CM during the TWW if you have conceived, but not everyone gets it. Most of the time I have a least a little creamy CM off and on during the TWW and have never turned a BFP, so I don't know.
Month/Cycle: 3/2
CD/DPO: 29/13-ish
Timing: not great
Testing: BFN again today
R/R: It's so weird. I just know that I'm out. I feel it in my bones, but every single time I go to the bathroom and I see that AF still hasn't arrived I feel this stupid glimmer of hope.
CS/Q: ugliest chart ever
GTKY: What is your favorite swimsuit? OK, so I hate swimsuits, but a few years ago I went to a Soma store when I was in Chicago and was able to find not one, but TWO swimsuits. The tankinis I got were very supportive in the boob area, which i prefer. I was really impressed that I could tell a difference between the sizes I tried on and I got the same size in both of the tops. I get so frustrated with swimsuits because the all seem to fit so differently. I wasn't able to wear their one-pieces, though because apparently I have a long torso and no one-pieces are comfortable.

Testing: Hi. My name is Tennis and I have no self control. I found a rogue hpt hanging out in my bathroom, and I decided to take it yesterday for giggles. Even though I knew it would be negative because it was only 9 dpo. Spoiler alert...it was snow flake white (is there something whiter than a snow flake? Because then that would be the color of the test). So as punishment, I'm not allowed to take any more.
R/R: See above BSC-ness
CS/Q:
GTKY: What is your favorite swimsuit? Bonus if you can include the brand. I'm so darn picky about swimsuits. I don't really have a ton I love. Right now, two Old Navy ones are in my rotation of favorites, but I don't really like Old Navy suits.
True story: I'm super pale and one time I was at the beach in an Old Navy suit and I got sun burnt through the bathing suit. I had perfect burn lines - my butt and boobs were burnt and the rest of me was as white as normal.

R/R: so the struggle was real today. I peed in a cup...and then it started snowing really bad and I had to leave for work earlier. Then I realized I ran out of wondfos and only had a 3 pack of clearblues that I ordered cheaper on amazon and decided to save it, dumped the pee cup and moved along!
CS/Q: none
GTKY: What is your favorite swimsuit? Bonus if you can include the brand!

Timing: -3, -2, -1
Testing: 10 DPO (3/19)
R/R: I've decided to come join y'all over here because I'm 99% sure I ovulated yesterday considering OPKs, CM, and a temp spike this morning. Hoping this isn't wishful thinking, especially because I'm at a conference until Sunday without DH and our timing would be pretty good if that's the case
CS/Q: none
GTKY: What is your favorite swimsuit? Bonus if you can include the brand! Ugh none of them right now

My Chart
CD/DPO: 25/4
Timing: -2, -1, 0
Testing: Blood test at RE March 20, will probably do a home test around 10 DPO, knowing me
R/R: I got a call from the RE this AM saying that my insurance wont cover the Ovidrel unless I submit a form which I have to GO INTO the clinic to fill out...and the clinic is 45 min away and I'm not suppose to go there for another 2 weeks. So regardless I had to pay $97 bucks today when normally me + DH insurance covers everything. Also, DH and I have been in poor financial situations (I just finished school in December and I paid for it out of my pocket)....so we don't use credit cards anymore and only have one that we are trying to pay off. The clinic needed a credit card on file to bill whatever we owed for drugs, I asked if I could just come in and pay it because we dont use credit cards and she said no....my rant is our credit card dependant society and how its just expected that you have one available to use. It's also super embarassing when you have to say that you don't have one and people look at you like you're some broke/irresponsible person. Sorry that I pay for everything in cash! End rant!
CS/Q: *TMI* I had some super creamy CM this morning, so of course I started SS....even though it's way too early for anything.
GTKY: What is your favorite swimsuit? Bonus if you can include the brand!
I don't have the brand but I just wear one that I bought at Walmart. My favourite styles are the high-waisted/vintage ones.

CD/DPO: 19/?
Timing: eod
Testing: I d like to say not until AF is late but who am I kidding
R/R: not really charting/temping this month. I have been lurking here but not participating much, ttc gets rough on your heart/mind.
GTKY: VS
Month/Cycle: 12/8
CD/DPO: 30/12 (FF is drunk--I did not O on CD14 like my chart suggests, if you stalk it)
Edit: I removed my false positive OPK from CD12 and FF moved my CHs back to CD18 (although they're dotted now)!
Timing: -5, -4, -3, -1
Testing: Okay, so I caved and tested Wednesday night. So only 10dpo and not FMU. I decided that my "boobs felt weird" and I needed to test right that second. Glaring BFN. (DH & his optimism was like, "Are you sure?!" and stared at it for minutes. Come on, man, it's clearly stark white.)
R/R: Rant: Holy SS, Batman!
CS/Q: Okay, I've read that CM doesn't matter in the TWW. Is that true?
GTKY: What is your favorite swimsuit? Bonus if you can include the brand!
Argh, I know it's from Nordstrom, but not the brand. It's actually my only one-piece, but it's a v-neck with an open back and an open-ish strip running down from the v-neck. Sexyish one-piece! Haha.
ETA: Fixed my chart problem! (See italics above.)

@cdnrunning Oh my gosh weimaraners are so dang gorgeous!
@haylsbayls Congrats on selling your place! I totally get how that could be sad because of nostalgia though.
@kiwi2628 Oh no, I'm sorry.
@fresh76 Sorry the RE won't let you do IUI!
@RVAmom315 Glad you're figuring out the RE situation!
@SoldiersMom We don't have DD here but this girl always posts about how much she loves the brownie batter donuts (that I think are seasonal around Valentine's Day?) and I always super wanted to try one! Now I feel less jealous about it.
@justkeepswimming8 DH doesn't really like swimming or the beach and I'm like...you're gonna have to get over that if we have kids--they're doing swimming lessons and we are taking family beach trips and that is that! Hahaha.
@LaurenEG14 I had heard that about heart rate. I'm glad I'm not currently wearing my Fitbit because I know I'd obsess over that and I already am over my temps...
@Hollyl321 Sorry for the BFN!
@beachbunnyxo123 That is some willpower!
@Rejufsovelem I am so happy we made it to Friday.
@georgiagirl3050 FX yesterday was your O day!
@vintageandrea90 I so wish I lived in Canada right now (or insurance in the US wasn't mostly shit). I'm the opposite, I pretty much never have cash on me!
@Redpuma119 TTC does get really rough. I think being on here is mostly helpful for me, but some days it adds to the gloom.

@cdnrunning - Doing a hunt test sounds really cool! My dogs are lucky that I take them for walks!
@haylsbayls - In a dream world where I win the lottery, I would love to have a condo downtown and a farm right outside of town. I hope it sells fast. Paying two mortgages isn't fun!
@kiwi2628 - Rolling over months and cycles always sucks. I don't think it'll ever get any easier.
@fresh76 - The anticipation would kill me! FX you won't even need a higher dose next month!
@SoldiersMom - Maybe you O'd on CD16, but I wouldn't think any later than that. And I also hate swimsuits.
@Hollyl321 - Sorry for the BFN. FX tomorrow will be different.
@beachbunnyxo123 - I don't think I've ever peed in a cup and not tested before. That's some crazy will power.
@Rejufsovelem - Nice timing during FW!
@georgiagirl3050 - Welcome to TWW!
@vintageandrea90 - Your GIF sums it up perfectly.
@MJDsquared - Sorry for your BFN. I've read that you are more likely to see creamy CM during the TWW if you have conceived, but not everyone gets it. Most of the time I have a least a little creamy CM off and on during the TWW and have never turned a BFP, so I don't know.
Month/Cycle: 3/2
CD/DPO: 29/13-ish
Timing: not great
Testing: BFN again today
R/R: It's so weird. I just know that I'm out. I feel it in my bones, but every single time I go to the bathroom and I see that AF still hasn't arrived I feel this stupid glimmer of hope.
CS/Q: ugliest chart ever
GTKY: What is your favorite swimsuit? OK, so I hate swimsuits, but a few years ago I went to a Soma store when I was in Chicago and was able to find not one, but TWO swimsuits. The tankinis I got were very supportive in the boob area, which i prefer. I was really impressed that I could tell a difference between the sizes I tried on and I got the same size in both of the tops. I get so frustrated with swimsuits because the all seem to fit so differently. I wasn't able to wear their one-pieces, though because apparently I have a long torso and no one-pieces are comfortable.

Testing: Hi. My name is Tennis and I have no self control. I found a rogue hpt hanging out in my bathroom, and I decided to take it yesterday for giggles. Even though I knew it would be negative because it was only 9 dpo. Spoiler alert...it was snow flake white (is there something whiter than a snow flake? Because then that would be the color of the test). So as punishment, I'm not allowed to take any more.
R/R: See above BSC-ness
CS/Q:
GTKY: What is your favorite swimsuit? Bonus if you can include the brand. I'm so darn picky about swimsuits. I don't really have a ton I love. Right now, two Old Navy ones are in my rotation of favorites, but I don't really like Old Navy suits.
True story: I'm super pale and one time I was at the beach in an Old Navy suit and I got sun burnt through the bathing suit. I had perfect burn lines - my butt and boobs were burnt and the rest of me was as white as normal.
@kiwi2628 - That is the weirdest GIF. Sorry for the terrible day.
@mispanda - hugs, girl.
@haylsbayls - good luck with the condo.
@beachbunnyxo123 - That is some self control!
