Testing plans: I reaalllly want to test tomorrow at 10 dpo but I think I'm going to hold out until Saturday, when AF is due. Not sure how long my LP is since first cycle temping. So id like to play it safe.
Rants/raves: I'm pretty sure there's something in the water at everywhere but my house. It's killing me seeing everyone announce pregnancies. After my doc appt last week my dr told me with the past 3 irregular cycles if it happens again that I skip she wants me to go see the fertility doctors. *insert feeling of failure*
Gtky: oh, I am the queen of public humiliation of myself. I stopped counting and start laughing instead.
Edited: gah, my throat is really killing me. Another rant rave. I'll have to make tea when I get home.
If this is only your 4th cycle post BCP, why would your Dr be suggesting you see an RE?
Looks like she's had 5 months of irregular cycles. Depending on age, seeing a doctor soon is not unreasonable.

I'm really not sure which is why I got quite nervous when she mentioned it to me. I think the last one which was longest was a skip (68 days).

*Lurking from WTO* also depends on history pre-BCP, while that often doesn't impact cycles years later, it might cause a doctor to make a referal sooner. my first cycles off BCP were 176 days (yes that's 176), and 70 days, that combined with the fact that I've never had "regular" 21-60day cycles off BCP was enough for my PCP to make a referal, she said she would have suggested it regardless of if we were trying or not. she makes the same referal for girls who reach 18 without starting menses.

Blah, there is the spotting. CD1 tomorrow. The worst part of a cycle that didn't work out is that you get your period. I feel like I should get flowers or something as a consolation, not horrifingly painful cramps and four days of bleeding! Who designed this process?!
Seriously though, it's been a pleasure to be crazy with you all. FX for those of you still in it!
Engaged May 2003 Married June 2005 TTC #1 since October 2014 H-1% morph, low motility, low count Me-.1 AMH levels, low AFC, DOR/POI, perimenopause Foster Care journey begins March 2016-licensed 11/7/16 Foster parents to A & J 1/31/17 www.fertilityfriend.com/home/5525ef
My normal time to temp is 6:45 am which is my default time in FF. I am switching positions at work which means M-Th I need to be up at 5:15 instead and F-S I would get up/temp at 6:45. How should I handle this in FF? Once I get trained I go back to getting up at 6:45. I don't want a lot of open circles but don't want to mess up my chart partway through a cycle if I change my default time. Help

Rants/Raves/Chartstalks: Well, I got my extra progesterone so I'm just praying that it works and I don't have another 10 day LP. And a BFP would be nice, too.
GTKY: Have you ever publicly humiliated yourself? If so, how? Oh yes. During a vacation in Cancun, our hotel had these boardwalks with no rail and decorative ponds everywhere. I was staring at something and completely walked straight off the edge of the walkway into a pond. The pond was right in front of EVERYONE eating at the breakfast buffet common area. I also broke my toe.

3 options:
1) do nothing, fuck the open circles 2) get up at 5:15 to temp and go back to sleep for an hour and a half 3) don't bother with the time and write it in as a note to circumvent open circles (esp. If time of day doesn't really affect your temps)

If you're really concerned, you could go to bed 1.5 hours earlier so you get the same amount of sleep and then just lie to FF about what time you actually took it. Sort of like a pretend day light savings time.

Sorry about the BFNs and cd1s ladies.
Cycle: 7
CD/DPO: 26/8
Timing: -3, -1, +1
Testing Plans: Still trying to hold out for a while...but I'm starting to feel the crazy train pulling into the station! Definitely not before 12 DPO (Friday).
Rants/Raves/Chart stalks: None at the moment.
GTKY: Have you ever publicly humiliated yourself? If so, how? I do stupid shit all the time. Wouldn't call anything in particular "public humiliation" though!

Cycle: 1
CD/DPO: 23/6
Timing: -2,-1,O
Testing Plans: none yet.... Oh who am I kidding I have no self control and a cupboard full of cheapies.
Rants/Raves/ chartstalks: nothing much to report.
GTKY: Have you ever publicly humiliated yourself? If so, how? Seriously, everyday of my life. I've come to accept it. I think I'm that person who everyone likes and its secretly because they feel better about themselves seeing me with my foot in my mouth so often. It's a public service what I'm doing, really.
