Testing Plans: I tested again today even though I said I wouldn't because my temp was still up, not high, but well above cover line. BFN. Just waiting for AF and shocked I've made it to 13 DPO.
RRCS: I'm still on the fence about whether to keep trying naturally or consult with RE. The fact that I had a super normal cycle and a normal luteal phase is making me feel better. But AMA and all the wonky cycles before this. It's only been 8 months though. Idk. I'm considering taking a month off and doing nothing. No temping, no OPKs. Just taking a break and focusing on enjoying my life and my kids instead of putting so much focus on getting pregnant. I know I've been a mess this week and I'm sorry you guys, my mind has been all over the place.
GTKY: if money was no object, what's one thing you'd buy or do for yourself right now?
I want lip injections so badly but H thinks I'm absurd and would never be ok with me spending money on it.

@irish, sorry for the bfn. I know what you mean. TTC can take over your life. I hate that it's constantly in the back of my head. Definitely Take a break if you need too. I'd still temp if I were you. So many ladies here have taken a break and then regretted it because they were used to knowing where they were in their cycle. Just my .2cents.

You're probably right. My luck I will go back to having a super long cycle this time and be losing it not knowing lol.
I just keep going back and forth. Just now in the shower I thought "maybe I should just bite the bullet and make the RE consult, it's just a consult".
Testing Plans: Not making any plans since it probably won't matter
RRCS: I don't know what is going on with my chart, I'm thinking yesterday's temp spike had to do with my sickness and then today's temp is pretty low which may have to do with the fact that I can't breathe out of my nose. Who knows.
I have a consult with my OB today since it's been over a year since TTCAL. I'm nervous and don't expect that she'll have any answers for me, but at least I'm taking a step in the right direction.
GTKY: There's nothing I want specifically for just me, but I would LOVE to renovate my kitchen. New cabinets, countertops, backsplash, appliances, the works. Instead, I'm going to try to update it myself the cheaper way.
Sorry for the BFN @irish. Sending you hugs today, seeing an RE is a tough decision to make and I understand how you're feeling about TTC taking over your life.
easilyunamused GL with the progesterone. I hope it isn't as bad as you're expecting. Also, MH and I were just talking about how amazing a trip to Hawaii would be. I told him maybe we could do it for our 5th anniversary next summer. Unless I get pregnant between now and then.

Cycle/Month: ~ 19/21
CD/DPO: 32/10
Timing: Good
Testing Plans: I'm thinking of buying FRERs tonight and testing tomorrow. I don't want to waste a digi until Sunday but I feel like I need to see that BFN tomorrow and not Sunday.
RRCS: I have so much hope this cycle and it takes a lot for me to get like this. I'm on the crazy train.
GTKY: if money was no object, what's one thing you'd buy or do for yourself right now?
If money was no object and I didn't have to pay it back - an around the world year long vacation.
Hugs @irish - I understand how much it sucks to be at a crossroads regarding seeing the RE.
Cycle/Month: 17
CD/DPO: 22/6
Timing: Fine
Testing Plans: Eh
RRCS: Started my TWW temping break this morning - yay!
GTKY: if money was no object, what's one thing you'd buy or do for yourself right now? I would hire people to come in and do every improvement we want to make to our home. I keep looking at the little details of painting I need to finish and UGH would love to have the money to pay someone else to do it.

onesweetworld, I'm starting to find it difficult to get off the crazy train today. It's dumb and I don't like it but my mind just won't let go! @irish, Big hugs lady
Cycle/Month: 15/16
CD/DPO: 30/11
Timing: Sucky
Testing Plans: Sunday if temps are still up.
RRCS: Well, temp jumped back up today. No idea why. Crazy train has come a callin'. Someone talk me down, please! I'm not sure I trust my temp for today. :/ My Chart Also, H finally has a date for his SA! It'll be $100 OOP which is odd because I thought our insurance covered it but whatever.
GTKY: I'd buy all the things I've been desiring to have (a place down near the river that has some acreage plus ponies to put on it and my dream barn) all after I've taken a year off to travel the world with my bestie for part and H for the other part (or all).
RRCS: I'm on the progesterone but my temps don't seem all that high. They are above coverline, but they are all 97.5-97.7. I feel like that's all very low for what my usual post O temps are. So of course I'll spend this evening doing chart overlays to see how they compare to past cycles.
GTKY: Pay off my student loans, car, and mortgage. I don't need to be a rich person, but I would really, really like to actually keep the money I earn. @irish, you go get yourself those lip injections, girl! I personally think Botox is amazing and love how I look the times I've done it. I'm in favor of all the cosmetic stuff as long as it's done subtly. Do not want overdone stretchy face.
thelittleredm , not to contribute to the crazy train but is it possible you ovulated earlier than FF is estimating? I could see CD 16 with a fallback rise type pattern.
RRCS: I hope I see a difference this cycle from acupuncture.
GTKY: I'd go on vacation. I'm dying to get away. Otherwise I would like new cookware. I have my eyes on a Calphalon Contemporary set but it's $400... sigh.
@irish sorry for the bfn and the impeding AF. You can always request the appt and cancel/reschedule if you're not ready yet? It took 3 months to get my first consult appt with the RE I picked. easilyunamused we are beta buddies. Fx for you. PirateCat fx for tomorrow! kayladawn91 I hope your appt went well today. onesweetworld hugs. Fx for tomorrow. thelittleredm yay for the temp spike!Fx for Sunday! Happy Friday y'all! I'm off today
Cycle/Month: 8/14
CD/DPO: 33/6
Timing: -2, 0
Testing Plans: 14 dpo, betas on 16dpo
RRCS: I have no symptoms which is making me feel my body didn't actually O at all. Who knows what it's doing at this point. And thinking of Mothers day is making me want to ugly cry and scream at the universe "why not me". Uh! But I'm happy to get to spend the day with my mom.
GTKY: if money was no object, what's one thing you'd buy or do for yourself right now?
Take a month long vacation with DH somewhere to see the northern lights.

bex15 I could spend so much money on house stuff. I'm constantly wanting to redecorate all the rooms and there's so much I want (and need) to do outside too.
