What you're doing to get KU: Just waiting out AF right now
R/R/CS: Eh, nothing really
GTKY: I was 13 when I had my first real kiss, but had a childhood "boyfriend" as a kid and he would kiss me every now and then. Our moms were best friends and thought it was cute. Now he's openly gay and a lawyer fighting for equality for same sex marriages.
What you're doing to get KU: aiming for sex ED/EOD between the end of my period and the start of my next one.
R/R/CS: I avoided talking about hitting our 1 year mark with DH on Saturday because I knew it would upset him. Ditto telling him about friends who post pregnancy announcements on Facebook.
GTKY: How old were you when you had your first kiss? Stories optional. I was in grade 8 and the boy I was liked told me to meet him behind the school after we were all dismissed for the day. Then he kissed me. I went to an uptight Christian school so this was super taboo.
What you're doing to get KU: BBT, CM, green tea, PNV and sex at least EOD
R/R/CS: still just waiting to O. It's possible it'll be even later than last months of CD31. I hate being lapped by others between TWW and here but it happens with such long cycles.
GTKY: How old were you when you had your first kiss? Stories optional. I was 13- it was during a game of Truth or Dare. It wasn't much more than a peck, but at the time was a huge deal! I was extremely nervous.

Cycle/Month: 8/8
CD: 13
What are we doing: everything. Except this cycle we are doing EOD instead of ED. ED was too much pressure. I seem much more relaxed this cycle. I don't know if it's because I'm giving up hope or because I'm resigned to it happening when it happens.
R/R/Cs: none today
GTKY: my first kiss was during an 8th grade game of spin the bottle. My first actual kiss was when I was 14 with my then boyfriend. He's gay now. But at the time he was my best friend and we were both new to dating so it was nice to have someone that understood being nervous about your first kiss.
What you're doing to get KU: BBT, PNVs, OPKs (not yet though), Preseed
R/R/CS: Had a rough night last night. One of my friends announced on Facebook that she was "preggo" (her words...not mine). She also said that they were not trying, but it just happened. I cried and drank some wine. I will be seeing her tomorrow night, but since I got my pity party out of the way I hope I do okay. It is the first person to get pregnant that I know since we started trying.
GTKY: How old were you when you had your first kiss? Stories optional. I was 18. It was my first semester at college. It was with a guy I liked, but he had a girlfriend. She broke up with him, so I was a rebound. It lasted all of two seconds, and then he told me he was just thinking of his ex. Thankfully my second kiss was much better, it was with my DH
CD: 17 What you're doing to get KU: BBT, CM, CP, OPKs, PNVs, B6, pom juice until O, lots of sex this week before I go away again (last minute trip for some training, necessary but annoying) R/R/CS: I have so much on my plate with work. I just keep telling myself if it's meant to be that we get pregnant this cycle, it will all work out. I can handle it if I want to, and I do.
GTKY: How old were you when you had your first kiss? Stories optional. I was 12, it was at summer camp.
What you're doing to get KU: benched this cycle but new to bbt so doing a practice round.
R/R/CS: nada
GTKY: How old were you when you had your first kiss? Stories optional. I was young- like 5th grade for my first French. The boy down the street was older and my mom wasn't very observant. Although from stories I hear now I guess I wasn't crazy young- just felt that way then.
What you're doing to get KU: Sex ED during FW then EOD after that. PNV, OPKs & temping.
R/R/CS: I REALLY hope I O tomorrow as we would have AMAZING timing. So annoyed with waiting to O though! (I have really short cycles) I have had bad cramping since yesterday. I am not sure what that means.
GTKY: How old were you when you had your first kiss? Stories optional 16 with a super hot older guy. I think he was 17 or 18. It was perfect! We didn't end up dating. We probably would have if I wasn't so shy at the time.
R/R/CS: I'm still here! I have a feeling that this cycle is going to be anovulatory and it's just pissing me off.
GTKY: How old were you when you had your first kiss? I was 12, I think. It was a boy from church that I had known since we were babies. Funny thing was, that every few years we'd fall for each other for awhile, but it was just never meant to be romantic for us. We're still best of friends to this day.
GTKY: How old were you when you had your first kiss? Stories optional.
I was seventeen and it was a few days after Valentine's Day. On Valentine's Day, after an epically long date my boyfriend tried to kiss me in the car. I needed to pee, and we were just sitting in the car, so I thanked him for the date and ran inside. He kissed me after school the following Monday though.
What you're doing to get KU: temping, trying to get better at tracking CM and hopefully a lot of sex
R/R/CS: none. I just think waiting to O is so boring.
GTKY: How old were you when you had your first kiss? Stories optional. I love hearing everyone's stories! I think I was 12 so 7th grade? It was a dare. My first "real" kiss was with my now husband when we were 13.

Cycle/Month: 3/3
CD: 4
What you're doing to get KU: After AF we'll be doing EOD, OPK's, PNV, BBT... all the acronyms
R/R/CS: None really. Just waiting for AF to go away.
GTKY: How old were you when you had your first kiss? Stories optional. 14. My friend's older brother. Oops. We were "dating" (as much as you can date in 8th grade) and she said it was fine so if it really wasn't fine she shouldn't have okay-ed it. #sorrynotsorry
What you're doing to get KU: nothing until AF leaves
R/R/CS: After 68 day cycle I'm glad to see AF. Contemplating canceling my consult with my Dr. this week since I started on my own. This is my second long (over 60 days) cycle since stopping BC in August.
What you're doing to get KU: PNVs, BBT, waiting for AF to go away
R/R/CS: CD4 ... so far from charting it seems like I don't O until in the CD20s. I have a long wait ahead...
GTKY: How old were you when you had your first kiss? Stories optional. 20. Yup. My husband was my first boyfriend and after we had dated awhile he kissed me. Apparently I sucked at it, but that made him like me more because he knew he was my first. LOL. He of course had to teach me how to kiss better...
R/R/CS: last night my mom informed me that my sister is wanting to start trying for a second in the next few months. Yipeeee.
GTKY: How old were you when you had your first kiss? Stories optional. I was 12 and he was a little older and a friend of my sisters friends. He ended up passing away from cancer when I was about 16. I remember when he would go in for chemo we would bring him meals to the hospital and he would get excited to see me. His mom and I still cry when we see each other. DH actually graduated with him so it's nice that he knew him too.
R/R/CS: I had a temp spike yesterday, then drop today. If I have another temp over 98 tomorrow I will get crosshairs. The up and down is irritating!
GTKY: How old were you when you had your first kiss? Stories optional. I think I was 13. I was on vacation with my family and met a guy who was 18 or 19 (I lied and said I was 16 to seem cool - ha!). I remember that he was a smoker and kissing him grossed me out.
GTKY: How old were you when you had your first kiss? Stories optional. I was 11 and in sixth grade. I remember we were at a school basketball game and he kissed me then grabbed my butt. I broke up with him the next day because it totally freaked me out. Lol
What you're doing to get KU: PNVs, ED sex during FW (or what I believe to be, haven't started temping yet)
R/R/CS: I think AF is actually gone now instead of the weird "I'm here, no I'm not here" stuff that she does at the end. She was only "really" there for 3 days. We HIO yesterday just in case though. Only thing I remember was that my cycle was SUPER fast before BC (hence why I went on it). So we're trying to be active a little before what I think it should be, just to be safe. Next month I'll start temping.
GTKY: How old were you when you had your first kiss? Stories optional. Well, I was 17 and it was spin the bottle. We played at a friend's birthday party. I don't really count that one though due to limited options (to be fair, I went to a private, all-girls catholic high school). My first real kiss, I was 18 (a freshman in college) and it was my first boyfriend-- a friend of a friend who was doing a semester in DC (where I went to college). We were watching a movie and he kissed me. That started a 3.5 yr relationship that lasted all of college (mostly long distance as he went back to his school the semester after). Broke up with him 2 weeks after I graduated and started dating DH about 6 months later.
Met 06/27/2004. Fell in love 09/30/2005. Adopted our pups 7/08 & 2/10. Bought a house 12/29/10. Married 10/8/11. TTC Baby #1 December 2014. BFP 4/16/2015 EDD 12/25/2015 DD Born 12/28/2015
R/R/CS: I really expected a temp spike today. My temps this cycle have been really weird. So, still waiting on O...timing won't be great this month, but oh well...you win some you lose some.
GTKY: How old were you when you had your first kiss? Stories optional. I don't remember my first kiss. I remember when I started kissing boys in general. I was probably 12 or 13. The most memorable early kiss story is when my childhood crush cut his tongue on my braces. Yeah. That was awesome.
R/R/CS: Just waiting on one more high temp to move over to TWW... I'm like 99% sure I O'd on Saturday. I hate temping sometimes. I DO NOT sleep well.. I was up from like 2-4 and then temped at 5:30 so who knows if it's even accurate.
GTKY: How old were you when you had your first kiss? Stories optional.
I LOVE THIS! I had my first fake kiss when I was like 11/12 from my "boyfriend" at the time. A bunch of our friends were chanting kiss her kiss her on the bus and he did. My first REAL kiss would have to be when I was 15 in front of the Bertuccis. I remember it being pretty awkward but I was super excited because I really liked the guy. We dated for like 2 1/2 years after that. Ahhhh young love
What you're doing to get KU: bbt, eod sex, preseed, pnv's, opks
R/R/CS: I had like... 3 beers last night and slept like shit, so I didn't temp, and didn't temp at all this weekend. I hope I didn't O way early and completely miss my fertile window. My OPK was negative this morning.
GTKY: How old were you when you had your first kiss? Stories optional.: I had my first kiss outside the skating rink when I was 12 or 13. I was waiting for my mom to pick me up and was sitting on a half-wall in the parking lot. My boyfriend stood between my legs and french kissed me! I remember feeling like I was floating on clouds. Mom showed up a few minutes later and I'm pretty sure she knew exactly what had happened, even if she didn't see it. It's weird how moms are like that

Cycle/Month: 15
CD: 12
What you're doing to get KU: EOD sex starting tomorrow... I'm going through a testing/monitoring cycle with an RE so I'm half-assedly charting. Maybe I'll pee on an OPK for the hell of it when they tell me I'm close to Oing. I've never had a super clear positive on those things but it could just be that they're cheapies.
R/R/CS: I can't say I love the early morning treks down to the fertility factory, but at least there won't be any question when I do O. I think I'll O this week based on them telling me everything is progressing nicely so far.
GTKY: How old were you when you had your first kiss? Stories optional. I had a "boyfriend" when I was 8 and we used to smooch on his couch (his mom babysat me after school). My first french kiss I was 15 and really drunk (I'm classy).

Cycle: 2
CD: 13
What you're doing to get KU: Lots and lots of things, including as much sex as I can seduce my husband into this week.
R/R/CS: Fertile Week! Sex! Yay! Only vaguely related, because one of the things I'm doing is walking a hell of a lot more, I got a horrible, painful, awful blister the size of a quarter at a bad place on my foot and I was hobbling around all evening because of it. I finally asked DH to drain it, but we had to drain it again today, which is when we realized it was actually two big blisters that had morphed into a super blister. It's finally much better, so I think I can actually walk today. Thank goodness!!
GTKY: How old were you when you had your first kiss? Stories optional.
First kiss? I was 7. It was with a boy named Dusty Miller, in second grade. I had a big crush on him, and he had a crush on me. We were picking up confetti and bumped into each other under the desk and he kissed me on the lips. Sadly, his family moved out of state at the end of the year. It was very sweet and I remember it fondly.
My first really romantic kiss was my first date when I was 14. It wasn't that great. Well, the date was great, but the dude turned out to be legit crazy. Soooooo.
What you're doing to get KU: Everything and now giving the vampires (RE’s office) blood
R/R/CS: I think I might O today. Got a positive OPK yesterday, some good CM and so FX!!!!
GTKY: How old were you when you had your first kiss? Stories optional. Like 14, in a closet during hide and seek. Super romantic…..lol.
@marymargaret-The one year mark sucks! Sorry to have you join the club no one wants to be in. On another note-Love the song in your “status”!!!!!
bl1210-I would probably cancel. There isn’t much the doc can do and you started your cycle, so at this point it is probably just your body regulating itself.
W-sorry you are having troubles I can totally relate to the lowering of self-esteem for that reason as well. Hugs to you.
