    GTKY: What non-TTC related goals do you have for yourself for the next 5 years, personally or professionally?  Run a marathon, backpacking trip to Europe (this one might be 10 years or so), and own my own practice.
  • I think I might be one of very few who are in TWW right now based on this so I will just switch the day until someone can join me.  :D

  • @quidditchcapn1120 I thought I'd say hello! I'm pretty much out I think, but didn't want you to be lonely! I think it must be a full moon.. everyone is driving me crazy! Backpacking in Europe sounds amazing!!

    I want to get in way better shape. I'm not fat at all but I have some flab that could be toned. I also want to rebuild a few relationships.

    Edited because I had the wrong CD.

  • Month/Cycle: 2/2

    CD/DPO: 23/7

    Timing: -3, -2, 0

    Typical LP length: not really sure

    Testing: Maybe Sunday? But I also might cave on Friday and use weekend plans as my excuse for craziness
     
    R/R: Rave - The summer volleyball league that my husband and I are on starts up again this evening! I mean, our team is objectively terrible at volleyball, but it's still fun!

    CS/Q: Not much, though it looks like my temp is already dropping on DPO 6 & 7. Nothing below coverline, but it's still depressing to watch. Not feeling too optimistic about things.

    GTKY: What non-TTC related goals do you have for yourself for the next 5 years, personally or professionally?  Huh. I'm having a really hard time with this! We have some more plans for house remodels, adding a bathroom, opening up the living/kitchen area, so probably that. For fun, I'd like to go on an international trip of some type with my husband. He hasn't really been out of the country other than Canada, so I think it would be a fun experience for both of us. Just have to decide where to go!

    @quidditchcapn1120 - You're not alone! I saw your post yesterday, but, as stated above, I've been feeling rather pessimistic about this month what with the super fast temperature drops, so I avoided posting. But we're all in this, so I'm back!

    @bdream0916 - Glad  you're finally here!
  • I mean, like baaad at volleyball!


  • Month/Cycle: 1/1

    CD/DPO: 33/15

    Timing: -3, -1, +1

    Typical LP length: 13 

    Testing: Haven't bought any tests yet
     
    R/R: I put an old pair of contact in today, from a prescription from a while ago. Now I can't see all the way across the room.

    CS/Q:

    GTKY: What non-TTC related goals do you have for yourself for the next 5 years, personally or professionally?
    We have plans to add a large master suite to our house, so I'd love to have that done, and to have all debt paid off except mortgage. And maybe a sodded yard, lol, ours is dirt.
  • @bdream0916 Glad you made it over here!  I remember on a post a week or two ago, someone posted a graphic showing the likelihood of pregnancy based on timing and -1 was the best timing of all!  So don't feel too down- plus you got EOD with -3, -1.

    @auburnvelvet86 I'm sorry you're feeling down!  It's not over till it's over though!  FX!  And I LOOOVVVEE playing volleyball on our rec league!  Have fun!
  • I guess I'll just jump in! 

    Month/Cycle: 1

    CD/DPO: 21/4

    Timing: -3, O. Not great. 

    Typical LP length: I wasn't temping in previous months, but based solely on CM, I'd say 11-12 days. 11.5 days? Things have been wonky since I got my cycle back. 

    Testing: I typically don't test until the day I expect AF but this TWW is driving me bonkers. I was SS like a mufuh yesterday and I know good and well that nothing could even be happening at 2,3,4 dpo. Sigh. I have some expired wondfos I might break out if I don't start spotting when AF is due. 
     
    R/R: I asked DH if he thought we'd get KU this month. He said "no. we didn't have enough sex." So glad he so optimistic.  :| I mean, our timing was pretty crappy. 

    CS/Q: 

    GTKY: What non-TTC related goals do you have for yourself for the next 5 years, personally or professionally?
    I can't really think past this potential baby right now! But I guess I do want to get back to working full time eventually.

  • Hope I'm in the right place for this. My name is Jenna and my husband and I have been TTC #2 for about a year. This has been a very tumultuous cycle for me. I'm currently on CD 42 and no clear idea as to if I even ovulated. I suspected I ovulated on cd 24 but FF gave me crosshairs this morning which means I'm supposedly 3 DPO but I'm not sure I buy that. I didn't track anything for the first half of my cycle due to the fact that I was planning my wedding however for the past few days I have gotten flashing smiley on CB digital which happened to me last cycle right before I got AF. I was spotting dark brown from CD 38 - CD 40 then yesterday it turned red but I only noticed it when I checked my cervix so I was sure AF was going to come but now the spotting has stopped altogether. My symptoms include mild cramping sore nipples gassy lower back pain stretching feeling in abdomen and headache. Not sure what to think but if anyone has any insight I would appreciate it.

    You’re right, it’s just that your question would normally go in the CS/Q area of the WTO/TWW posts, but after you post in the newbie thread introducing yourself and as part of the daily thread which is organized in a way to make it easy to read and follow so people can give support easier.  The idea is that we really like to get to know people and have an equal share of giving and taking support.  

    To answer your question, take an HPT.  If it’s positive, you should move to a BMB. If it’s not, please read the sticky threads, lurk for a while, introduce yourself on the newbie board and then start participating in the daily threads so we can get to know you, and you us. There are a lot of ladies in different stages of their TTC journeys here and all are supportive and amazing.  Please get to know and be cognizant of the culture of the board.
  • @MyasMommy2010 If you lurked for a while you would see that there is a discussion called "Chart Stalk"

    @MyasMommy2010 Hi!  Mistakes happen :) There is a CS/Q section on dailies. You can intro on ththe newbie thread, jump into dailies with the outlines questions, and post in CS/Q!  Be careful of posting symptoms like you did as it may be construed as asking if you are pregnant (which is against TOU). Best of luck! 
  • Month/Cycle: 1/1

    CD/DPO: 24/9

    Timing: -8, -3, -1, +1,+6

    Typical LP length: Not really sure...I'm new to tracking, but I will hopefully figure it out soon!

    Testing: Monday
     
    R/R: Rant - Not really a rant, but I am SO ready for the end of the school year!!! I'm a teacher, and I will cry my eyes out on the last day, BUT these last few weeks seem to draaaaag by. I can't wait to have time to just lurk this site and focus on TTC (though that might not be the best thing for me)! Rave - My Doctor had me come in for blood work earlier this week because with my recent PCOS diagnosis, she wanted to see if I ovulated this month. DH and I are pretty pumped that if nothing else - I did in fact O this month, and it was right on track with the OPK! I'm just hoping that our timing helps. Small victories matter!

    GTKY: What non-TTC related goals do you have for yourself for the next 5 years, personally or professionally?  Professionally - Make photography my full time and only job
    Personally - Learn videography to make yearly overview videos for my family. Also, print my wedding photos and complete a scrapbook.
