    @purplg8r You are my hero for all that running! So much respect.

    @holly321 I love going out to breakfast! Enjoy it! Re: temps- mine are actually higher with poor sleep.

    Month/Cycle: 5/4 3AL

    CD: 13

    WAYDTGKU: all the letters. sex.

    R/R: Had a frustrating morning and already cried once today. I've got my coffee now though, so I'm feeling better. I think MIL is coming over to hang with us later, so that will be nice. I've got to get on planning for MH's birthday dinner because we are doing it tomorrow and I've got nothing. 

    CS/Q: I woke up at 445 (normal wake up is 6) this morning and took my temp. It was 96.76, which is really low for me. I then got out of bed to pee. Then, I went back to sleep for maybe an hour and took it again at 6 and it was 97.5, which is normalish, but maybe still a little high for where I am in my cycle. Plus, it was after only an hour of uninterrupted sleep. Which temp would you use? Here are my charts, first with the earlier temp and then with the later temp:

    @purplg8r What are you having inspected?
    @beachbunnyxo123  are you a therapist? That meme cracked me up!
    @holly321 eye doc?
    @lurvleybunchococonuts not sure what lab you're at, but I'd like to test burgers too!
    @JNCPro3130 teacher as well?
    @hedgepig ha! Great teacher memes!
    @nanilani04  hmmmm astronomer?!?

    @kbamomma33 I'm sorry you've had a rough morning <3  Good luck with the birthday dinner -- I hope it's all part of a relaxing weekend!  As for temps, I would use the earlier temp and save the 6am temp in the notes.  I also endorse using the calculator @becausescience suggested for a sanity check on the low temp.  If an open circle point is preventing me from seeing a pattern in my chart, I'll use that link to see what the point "should" have been in case it clarifies anything.  Someone also pointed out a similar VIP feature in FF (maybe it was also @becausescience? I can't remember.).
    @nitnat007 I'm so sorry about the loss of your dog.  On a totally different note, love your meme!  That guy must have just asked a question after the meeting was supposed to have ended  :#
    @dragonette505 Where did you go on vacation?  And no, not an astronomer.  I wish I were that smart!  There are actually extremely specific gifs and graphics about my job, but I work in a male-dominated environment and don't want to risk identifying myself too much!

    @looeeze I know it'll take a few days for CHs, but even just one higher temp would make me happy!  I know there is still time to see a shift but don't want to jinx myself yet.  I have low-key PCOS and have never used OPKs before, so I wouldn't put it past my body to fake ovulate :(  That said, I usually do get a shift in past cycles so at least I should O eventually.
    @jrm_14 My BBT is made by Fairhaven Health (purchased from early-pregnancy-tests.com).  It works >98% of the time, but sometimes I have to reseat the battery before it will take my temp so I don't entirely recommend it.  They did send me a free replacement, but I haven't used it yet to see if my first one was just a dud.
    @wisewitch222 Fx for good timing!

    @JennyColada Yay for a temp spike! Obviously it's up to you, but most women tend to hang out in WTO until they get CH... sometimes you can get a fake out and it's always crummy to have to come back a day or two later :)

    @Sailing_Mama I was so mad when I read your post in IF. Glad you're going back to see someone who is hopefully not a horse's ass.

    @nanilani04 Ah, I see. FX that those temps keep going up!

    Thanks ladies, I'll probably rant in a little bit, so many tags took forever LMFAO!

    @purplg8r Good work on the run! I hope your inspection goes well and you can have a nice lazy rest of your day!

    @holly321 I'm jealous of your plans for the day ;) have fun!

    @beachbunnyxo123 those horse head masks are so creepy!  

    @JNCPro3130 That sounds like an excellent start to your day

    @hedgepig GL!  Sounds like you'll need some patience today!  I hope you have fun!

    @nanilani04 I WISH I tested cheeseburgers!  That'd be awesome! I work in a lab that tests raw ingredients/finished feed product (think infant formula for cows).

    @kbamomma33 I'm sorry you had a rough start today! I hope it gets better for you

    @nitnat007 having a countdown to vacation is the best :)  I hope time flies by and you have a super relaxing time :)

    @dragonette505 a cheeseburge lab sounds AMAZING!  I wish that were a real thing, I'd be super qualified because I love cheeseburgers lol

    @looeeze Sigh... last night was a no-go, apparently it was "too hot"  but your meme made me snort & giggle :)

    @jrm_14 I feel like I could have written your "rant-ish", super frustrating!  

    @wisewitch222 Yay, being back home from vacation is always nice

    @JennyColada FX for you!  

    @Sailing_Mama I'm sorry to hear about your appointment, I hope today's ends in a rave

    @catlady1215 I hope your friday is less 'nutty' than the rest of your week!

    @kbamomma33 I'd use the earlier temp because it has an open circle and will count less. You haven't O'd yet, so I don't think it matters honestly. I think you'd show a temp rise from either of those temps.

    @Sailing_Mama Ok, you talked me into it.  I tried entering some fake numbers for Saturday and Sunday and as long as each is >=97.34, FF will give me real CHs!  Not even the dotted kind :)  Ugh, now I guess I should set alarms to temp at the right time so I get the most accurate info.  I usually just temp whenever on the weekends b/c I'm lazy and it so rarely matters.

    Oh yeah... here's my chart...
     

    Also, warning rant ahead:

    In part, the lack of BD since 7/3 is what is making me somewhat rant-y.  He was too tired after our hike on the 4th.  The 5th he was too sore from said hike.  And yesterday he said his back (he had a strained it a few months ago) was bothering him again, and I asked if that meant he didn't wanna HIO, which led to an argument because he thinks I'm being ridiculous, and I'm frustrated with trying to get it on and being shut down over and over again. After said disagreement he implied he was down to tango, but when it actually came time to go to bed he was "too hot".  Thanks H. Thanks. Then this morning I get a text from him saying how quickly I feel asleep and he didn't want to wake me up once he wasn't so warm.  Seriously?! I know I'm being ridiculous, but I'm just rather annoyed.

    The other part is that I'm frustrated with work.  I work my ass off for my company, when I was hired I was told "once trained" they'd bump me up to match what my old pay was at my previous company.  Close to two year later still not there even though I essentially run the damn lab.  My boss is in meetings close to all day, plus upper management gave us the task to test out a new program for recording data which my boss openly admits I'm doing all the work for.  Plus found out our "maternity leave" (which I asked for info on in January and didn't get until about a week ago) is essentially I get to take the FMLA, with no pay.  Thanks guys!  I don't mind the work, I love it in fact, but a raise or better benefits would be appreciated.  

    And thirdly, I'm just in a bad mood and don't know what's going on with my stupid body.

    ETA: and 4th of all, I feel like I'm just a moody, whiny, pita these days and it drives me bonkers.  Why can't it be easy just for once? Oh plus DH doesn't "get" ttc.  He essentially just tells me to "relax" *snort* because every girl he's ever known that has gotten pregnant just got drunk and it happened.  And "people get knocked up out of their fertile time all the time" oh and the best, "not having sex for a few days doesn't make a difference" /end rant.  Love the man but argh... obtuse!

    So sorry, but another P & G so I can run to a meeting.

    Month/Cycle: 5/5

    CD: 13

    WAYDTGKU: opks, charting temps & cm. I think O is due tomorrow!

    R/R: Our new kitty really, really likes to chew on things. He punctured my ice pack and probably ate a little bit of the gel inside. Luckily it doesn't seem to have affected him. He's moved on to trying to remove everything from our recycling bin. Sigh. Also the kitties kept walking on me in the night, so I didn't have a great night sleep.

    CS/Q: I'm relatively new to using opks (wondfo). How long after a positive opk do folks usually O?

    @purplg8r I know, but FF says if you normally wake up at the same time in the middle of the night, don't temp then, and then it also says not to take two temps because that will just confuse you, so technically I shouldn't be taking the 5am one at all, but if I don't I can't get back to sleep because I'm worried I won't fall back asleep for the 6:30 temp.  Thank God for CM.

    Editing to add that the 5:20 temp was still spiky, just not as spiky as 6:30. I'll continue to hang out here until I get CHs though.

    @lurvleybunchococonuts Aww girl, that is rough! Glad you ranted and got it off your chest. It's so hard when the men in our lives are beyond clueless about TTC - most of the time they have no idea what we deal with, and can close themselves off to learning about it :( Hope you can educate him a bit

    @lurvleybunchococonuts ugh, that sucks dude. RE: family leave, at my old job, it wasn't until a guy asked about paternity leave, and leadership started putting together a program, that they realized we didn't even have maternity leave (just FMLA and short term disability) - all the women/moms in the office were like, LOL go die. RE: YH... that would frustrate me, and honestly I wouldn't be able to let it go. I would follow DH around shouting stats. He would not get a moment of peace from me until he agreed to have sex consistently during FW. But also I'm a crazy person so...
