Cycle/month: 2/2

CD: 6

What are you doing to get KU? Now that I'm post-period, EOD, starting OPKs soon-ish, still temping, PNVs, probably going to start drinking more water

Rants/raves/chart stalks: Finding my continuing temp rise a bit odd - it's going up a tenth of a degree every day now. Although it did that last month too and it dropped after CD6, so maybe tomorrow it will get low (like the girl in the Apple Bottom jeans and the boots with the fur)

GTKY: What is your job? Do you like it? I'm a prosecutor and I specialize in child exploitation cases. Love love love my job and unless they fire me I'll do this till I retire. I even moved back to my hometown (which I swore I'd never do) just to get this job. But this is where I finally met the love of my life, so it worked out

[kcones88]

Cycle/month: 5

CD: 1 or 2?

What are you doing to get KU? Will be doing sex, bbt, opks, PNVs and preseed.

Rants/raves/chart stalks: I'm thinking I was just spotting heavily yesterday and that today is really CD1. I got my big temp drop today, cramps, the whole nine yards. Yesterday was just spotting, if maybe a little more than usual.

GTKY: What is your job? Do you like it? I'm a mortgage processor. Basically, im the one who makes your loan application look super pretty before submitting to an underwriter for approval. I don't love it, but I dont hate it either.

Cycle/month: 9/8

CD: 9

What are you doing to get KU? Start OPKs and sex today (hopefully)

Rants/raves/chart stalks: Not GKU related, but I'm surprising hubby with a birthday dinner at a Korean restaurant tonight. Both of our families will be there and I'm super excited!!!

GTKY: What is your job? Do you like it? I'm a SAHM. I love spending my days taking care of my DH, DD, and house but sometimes I just need a break to get out with other adults.

[Sparkly]

Cycle/month: 2/3

CD: 1

What are you doing to get KU? just BBT for now. Deciding whether we will try once more this cycle or start avoiding now.

Rants/raves/chart stalks: CD1. Enough said. Disappointed in my short LP. Disappointed we're already here coming up on our TTA months.

GTKY: What is your job? Do you like it? I am a graduate gemologist and work in my family's retail jewelry store. I do sales, write appraisals, manage people, etc. I like it. Sometimes customers or staff annoy me, but overall it's a very enjoyable thing to do. We specialize in custom work, which is a lot of fun, and most people buy jewelry for happy occasions (engagements, weddings, anniversaries, babies, etc). It's special to be a part of that.

Cycle/month:3/3

CD: 17

What are you doing to get KU? PNV, CM, OPK, BBT, all the sex, preseed

Rants/raves/chart stalks: My temperature is still holding steady. Had two more positive OPKs yesterday, which makes it my third surge so far this cycle. I'm hoping this is it though. The test line actually showed up way before the control line both times and is way, way darker, which is something that's never happened before. I better get my temperature rise soon because H and I are both getting burnt out on sex at this point. This will be my longest cycle yet post BC and it's really stressing me out that I haven't O'ed yet. I know it's not really long compared to many, but it's my longest and we're way past when I suspected I'd O, so it's really starting to grate on me.

GTKY: I teach middle school health. It's pretty freaking excellent. I get to talk about sex and drugs to 13 year olds all day. Some of the questions I get about sex really make my day. I get a few good laughs from my kiddos most days.

Cycle/month: 4/3

CD: 1

What are you doing to get KU? Bbt, probably going to start using opks this cycle

Rants/raves/chart stalks: I will be drinking a lot this weekend. My temps were kind of crazy last cycle but I still saw a shift, so I think I'm gonna do one more cycle of temping orally and then switch and see if it's more consistent

GTKY: What is your job? Do you like it? I'm an HR researcher so I check people's resumes and make sure they aren't lying. The job itself is fine but I don't like the company I work for

[mrsjene]

Cycle/month: 4/3

CD: 7

What are you doing to get KU? The usual

Rants/raves/chart stalks: nothing yet. 

GTKY: What is your job? Do you like it? I'm in HR. I like it and I get to use my counseling degree (damn graduate school loans), but I don't love it.

Cycle charting 5:
CD 12
TTA currently
Rants/raves/chart stalks: another nightmare last night. This time I was in our house and someone was trying to break in through the window to steal my SS. 2nd night in a row I dream about someone taking away my kids. Not hard to figure what those dreams are about... I'm seriously considering taking NyQuil tonight so I can sleep and not remember.

GTKY: I'm an elementary French teacher and I also tutor privately on the side. I love it!! And think of it more of a vocation than a career

[butlerfan]

I got my crosshairs this morning which I suspect was try but wanted confirmation so over I go to TWW.

Cycle/month: 6/6

CD:13

What are you doing to get KU? We were going to skip this month because I'm starting a new job, but H convinced me otherwise. He did make a good point that our family planning comes first and my job second. I would be leaving once we have another LO anyway so, what difference does a month make?

Anyway, I'm still temping, PNVs, had awesome sex with the H yesterday so we'll try to do that again today too lol.

Rants/raves/chart stalks: I have no clue what's going on with my temps this cycle. They're all over the place but I've had a couple nights of screwed up sleep (thank YOU smoke detector battery for dying in the MOTN), so...yea. I don't know. I guess I'm 'supposed to O' tomorrow so, we'll see what my body does.

GTKY: What is your job? Do you like it? I'm a SAHM til tomorrow, then I'll go back to my job in occupational healthcare. I do like it, I like the company I work for more than the specific job itself, KWIM? It's just a great environment.

[teareading]

Good morning ladies!

What are you doing to get KU? Trying to temp more consistently than last month. EOD after AF is done.

Rants/raves/chart stalks: none

GTKY: What is your job? Do you like it? I'm an elementary school reading coach. I love working with kids and being in the school. I'm in grad school for library science so I'd like to be a children's librarian someday!

What are you doing to get KU?: sex, BBT

R/R/CS: at the fertility clinic now for H's blood test. I guess we will know soon if his treatment is doing any good.

What are u doing to get KU? BBT, CM, sex, preseed

Rants: just got off work and going to bed. Hopefully I will remeber to temp today!

What is your job? Do you like it?

Cycle/month: 6

CD: 7

What are you doing to get KU? eod, png, water, temping/charting, and shaving my legs haha

Rants/raves/chart stalks: I did not sleep well this morning since DD woke up upset about an hour before I take my temp. I jumped out of bed to help her so I knew I couldn't temp then. I woke up about 3 hours later and took my temp then, it might make my chart a little funky but we shall see.

GTKY: What is your job? Do you like it? I am a nanny/homeschooler. I like it since I am with DD and the family I work for is great! I take DD with me to a family with two children. One is 7mths older than DD and the other 7 mths younger. I do it like pre-school with learning and circle time and such. I hear you dke2010 on needing a break at times. I also miss the adult interaction I had when I worked in a childcare center. I am also a certified lactation counselor and that is my dream job to be in a hospital working with new moms.

Cycle/month: 5/5

CD: 5

What are you doing to get KU? Trying to fucking relax. Oing between CD15 and CD25 makes it difficult. Buuuut at least I'm Oing. I am thankful for that.

Rants/raves/chart stalks: I get to go to a comedy show tonight and DH is the DD! Woot.

GTKY: What is your job? Do you like it? I'm a health care provider. I like it. It's a puzzle that I get to figure out. I don't think I'll ever LOVE a job because inside I'm super lazy.

Didn't see this yet, so...


Cycle/month:8/8

CD:16

What are you doing to get KU? Probably sex one more time before the husband goes out of town for a week. I'm pretty sure I'll end up missing the fertile window altogether though.

Rants/raves/chart stalks: My chart is not normally this rocky this late in my cycle. I think I might ovulate really late this time. Normally it falls pretty low and stays very steady for 5-6 temperatures before a jump. If CD13 was just a result of leaving the electric blanket on all night, I might have ovulated yesterday. If not, I'm nowhere near ovulating.. and of course I haven't been tracking secondary signs. Blergh. My Ovulation Chart.

GTKY: What is your job? Do you like it? I'm a professor. I love it except for the stress. Maybe once I get tenure things will be easier.

Cycle/month: 5/5

CD: 11

What are you doing to get KU? EOD sex starting today, BBT, OPKs, PNVs, and almost a gallon of water of day. I also cut back on my alcohol intake and I'm trying to get healthy

Rants/raves/chart stalks: Nothing today. We will see how drunk DH gets today bowling to see if I will actually get laid today.

GTKY: What is your job? Do you like it? I am actually a labor and delivery RN. I love it most days. Some days I come home and drink my calories/feelings away. It's a very hard job, but I wouldn't have it any other way! Anyone want some good stories?! I'm chalk full of those!

Cycle/month: 6/6

CD: 5

What are you doing to get KU? BBT, CM, PNVs, sex

Rants/raves/chart stalks: For some reason I had an over .5 temp spike this morning. My period just finished. The only thing I think could have caused it would be sitting outside while we had the firepit going. I didn't drink last night, I had plenty of sleep, and temped at the same time I always temp.

What are you doing to get KU? BBT, CM, EOD sex, drinking tons of water/green tea.

GTKY: What is your job? Do you like it? I'm an attorney in a small law firm. We primarily do defense medical malpractice. I love working with our hospital and its nurses/docs - they are so knowledgeable and help us figure out these difficult cases.

Happy weekend to all!

Cycle/month: 7

CD: 15

What are you doing to get KU? Bbt, opk, pnv

Rants/raves/chart stalks: I suck at opks, I just don't get them lol. I think I'm going to go find the newbie blog... I struggle with identifying a positive test- equally colored lines, or only darker test lines? I feel like a noob

GTKY: What is your job? Do you like it? I am a merchandiser lead at a large retailer- I do a lot of behind-the-scenes stuff and manage a staff of support. I enjoy that I'm good at it, and I love the puzzles, but it isn't a career

[mrsbstau]

Month: 13

CD: 7

What are you doing to get KU? Sex, Pre-natals, and met with an RE on 1/22

Rants/raves/chart stalks: I am nervous about all of the fertility testing that I am starting. I am not the best at getting their blood drawn, so I am already anticipating passing out at my appt.

GTKY: What is your job? Do you like it? I am a supervisor/receptionist at a family practice doctor's office. I don't like my job most days.
We live in an entitled/"I need it now"world, and I hate it.

GKU: PNVs, BBT etc

R/R/S: Definitely gearing up for O. EWCM for the last 3 days, sore boobs, whole 9 yards. The only problem? H has been sick for the last four days and has no interest in sex. Last night he fell asleep at like 8pm. I figured it'd be fine, we could get some early morning sex in this morning.

My FIL knocked on our door at 7:30. We were literally just getting started. He wasn't supposed to be here until 8:30 or 9.

So now I'm scrambling to figure out a way to get him out of here for an hour or so, because I'm not going to be home tonight and honestly I'm surprised my temp didn't spike this morning.

O+1 is still good, right? Ugh.

GTKY: I work in Information Security and Compliance for a satellite office of a major health insurance company. I absolutely love it. I do audits, trainings, education and awareness stuff (posters, articles, etc).
