What are you doing to GKU? BBT, OPKS, PNV, Baby Asp, Lovenox, Folgard
RRCS: I just really want this to be THE cycle. I'm getting tired.
GTKY: What quality or attribute do you think is most essential in a romantic partner? Humor. If H was not good at making me laugh everytime I've gone through something, it would've been extra difficult to get through. Laughter really is the best medicine.

One of these days a west coaster is gonna wake up early and start one of these like... MUAHAHAAHA! I WIN! Why do they always start with "didn't see it". Hmm?
Also. I'm changing the stupid questions.
Cycle/month: negative 1. CD: 5
What is happening in your world of GKU? I ordered OPKs for funsies. Charting to avoid is fascinating and I'm happy to have found this option until we are ready to Ttc.
RRCS: I love my sckoon cup!
GTKY: What quality or attribute do you think is most essential in a romantic partner? Blah. I dunno. I just like people that have their heads on straight. So I guess common sense is essential.
I wish the GTKY was more entertaining. Like what is most essential in a sex toy. Or last time you had sex where your head wasn't in the game - what were you thinking about. Or describe your favorite food without saying the ingredients.

Sorry about the cousin struggle, tromeo. Congrats on the dream job, mrssims8212!! ETA: Sorry for the struggles your H is going through, paloslee.
Cycle/month: 5/6
CD: 9
What are you doing to GKU?: nothing yet
RRCS: I am beginning to worry that H has sleep apnea -- the past few nights when I was super awake from his insanely loud and frequent snoring, there would be brief times where you couldn't hear anything. I'd put my hand on his back and he'd have the tiiiiniest little breaths. Then he'd sort of snort or gasp and move and start to breath deeply again. He will hate going to a doctor but he probably needs to!
GTKY: What quality or attribute do you think is most essential in a romantic partner? Tough one! I think a good communicator is important. Two people are bound to react and deal with things differently, so it helps to be able to explain why and how they do what they do.

thank you ohinvrtedworld. I hope YH is ok with his sleeping patterns. Sleep apnea is no fun. He might need one of those sleeping mask. hope all is well.

I've often wondered this myself. My mother has it, but I always assumed it was weight related for her. However, the Dr said she's likely had it all her life and she was not always heavy (after her hysterectomy her thyroid went wonky). Makes me think I might have it. I snore likely because I have major sinus problems, but I often wake up in the middle of the night with a gasp of air. Anyway...sorry, I'm rambling! I hope YH gets it checked out!
paloslee, OCD is tough. My dad used to deal with it before we could really remember and he to this day has his routines that you can't break. While it's not always a bad thing, I do hope he gets it under control for both his health and yours. ((HUGS)) I know that can be tough!

RRCS: I am quite confused. I'm by no means a charting expert, but I charted for my last pregnancy and I have never seen my chart look like this. I got a +OPK on Saturday, so I stopped peeing on them. My temp rose on Sunday. My temp dropped again this AM, so I took another OPK and it was positive. FF is still giving me solid crosshairs for O on Saturday, but they put my coverline below a bunch of my normal temps. If anyone would be willing to take a look, it would be appreciated!Chart (I've never done this before, but I hope it worked)
GTKY: Loyalty. I also really appreciate a laid back person, since it balances my type A personality.
ETA: If you are looking at my chart, the temp spike on CD 11 was probably due to illness. I have been feeling like crap this month.
I think it will potentially take away those CH's or move them in the next few days. I see why FF made the call it did, but depending on what your next couple temps do it might change it's mind.
R/R/CS: Can I get a chart stalk? This thing is driving me nuts. www.fertilityfriend.com/home/4dd7af 4 days of watery CM followed by 3 days of EWCM followed by 2 days of cream, and then two days of EWCM again. Temps are all over the damn place. And the lows are LOW for me. I'm relatively certain I haven't O'ed, just would appreciate a second set of eyes.
GTKY: Humor. I need someone who can make me laugh and who can see the humor in the occasional goof.

I don't think that you've O'ed either. Tell your temps to calm the f*ck down.

I don't think you Od yet either. I hope your temps calm down and make up their mind soon.
mishy2010, valie - thanks for the confirmation. I can't tell if this is a result of my allergies making me sleep with my mouth open more or what. I've had this sort of up-down thing when I'm going to have a long cycle too, so hopefully it's not that.
RRCS: I think I O'ed, but still waiting for CH. I always have a slow temp rise after O and don't get a real spike until 4-5 days after my OPK+. Anyone else?
GTKY: What quality or attribute do you think is most essential in a romantic partner? A sense of humor and the ability to not take things too seriously.
I have the mentality of a 12 year old boy and immediately thought "well of course you're doing the D, you kind of need that to get pregnant." Then I sat here and giggled over "she wants the D" for like a full minute.
wholenewworld in the future, keep using OPKs until you get a negative that way you'll know if you have an extended surge. How dark Was the first and second OPK? Was it blazing dark? Or just as dark/allllllmost a dark as the test line? (If so I'd mark neg) fwiw based on the data you have I agree with FF, especially if your temp bounces back. HTH!
CD: 4 Rave: went for a run and pole dancing yesterday and I feel great today. Rant: my knees are sore now though
GTKY: I think trust. To earn trust (in my books) you need to be both loyal and honest

What's new with my GKU (I like this form of the question): trying to convince DH to drink more water. He's horrible about it. ***TMI alert***
Last cycle his swimmers were super...um...chunky. One day I convinced him to drink a ton of water and it had a huge effect on his swimmers. And I feel like lots of liquidy splurge HAS to be better than little bit of chunky splooge. But he's a child and says he can't remember to drink water...ugh.
R/R/Cs: nada
GTKY: humor is a must. DH is the best at making me laugh when I'm down.
Happy Tuesday, everyone! Congrats on the job offer, mrssims8212!!! Sorry for everything that's going on with your husband, paloslee. Hopefully the visit to the doctor will provide some help/answers for him. And I agree with PP's, pismoduo. It doesn't look like you've O'd yet.
Cycle/month: 7/6
CD: 13
What are you doing to GKU? all the usual things
RRCS: Today was my second day of positive OPK's so I will likely O today or tomorrow. This is the first cycle for me that I'm totally over the excitement of TTC... usually when I know I'm in my FW, I'm super motivated for us to get great timing and optimistic about getting KU. This month, I'm barely even noticing/caring that I'm fertile (my reaction to my positive OPK yesterday was basically, hmm, that's interesting, one day earlier than last month...) and not optimistic at all. In a way, it's kind of nice... TTC had kind of been my main focus for the first 4-5 months of trying, and it's nice to just live my life and not care (as much).
GTKY: What quality or attribute do you think is most essential in a romantic partner? Trust and patience.

What are you doing to GKU? Nothing yet. But when it's go time I'm going to use electronic OPKs, EOD, then ED during positive OPKs. I'm weaning off of caffeine and I'm changing my diet.
RRCS: Heavy flow this cycle, which is not normal. I suppose that's fitting considering that my LP last cycle was crazy making me think that I might actually have been GU
GTKY: What quality or attribute do you think is most essential in a romantic partner? He is kind, romantic, and puts my feelings ahead of his own like I do him. We got it going on.
