Things you're excited about: H's sperm washing results were great for the IUI so hoping it all works out.

We don't have a basement in our rental house, but when we buy I want a awesome basement movie room.


Eta: the lyrics to the Jonathan Coulton song I referenced are NSFW so don't YouTube it without headphones or something and don't click the WoW video version unless you want to see WoW characters having lots of sex.

CD/DPO: 29/12
Testing plans: I said I was going to wait but I caved and tested this AM when I saw my temp hadn't dropped. BFN.

Things you're excited about: My temps are still high-ish.
Questions or concerns about TTC things: I was wondering in my thermometer was malfunctioning because of how similar my temps have been. I checked my temperature at different points in the day yesterday and it does appear to be working. Apparently my temps are just consistent...
Special shit you're trying this cycle: Nothing different than the usual.
Q: if you could have one room in your house fully decorated and furnished like a catalog pic - what would it look like from which store? Bonus points for images.
I'd love a beautiful home library. We have a library but not enough shelves so my books are double and triple stacked. Something like this only with MOAR SHELVES:

First, I'd check if you have any insurance for IF - for me there's only one clinic in my city that would be covered by my insurance as far as I can tell, so that made it easy. The clinic needs a referal, so I'll be discussing that with my Dr at the end of the month, and asking her to send one in for me. I kept on putting off my regular Dr visit in hopes of a BFP so I'm just planning on bringing it up as part of my annual.

oh and it doesn't hurt to look at how long the wait times are. My GP took me 6 weeks to get into since I scheduled an annual (would have gotten in more quickly otherwise) so you may want to plan ahead, you can always cancel the appt. if you don't need it anymore (not saying book it now, but be aware of how far in advance your Dr books)

Thank you for all of the support, ladies. CD1 here, off to WTO. Good luck!!

[ohinvrtedworld]

kelle017, if it makes you feel better, I've been temping for almost a year and only just got solid crosshairs for the first time this cycle! I only just started tracking OPKs and CM and this time they lined up perfectly with temps. Those signs will help solidify your chart for you usually!

Crate & Barrel. MH said for our next house I can spend 20K and get all new furniture from there! (This will never happen, but whatever.)

There's a couple different factors for when you should think about getting a referral. First, do you need the referral, like does your insurance require it? The other thing is how long does it take to get into your RE's office? If it's a few months away but you could get a referral and then hopefully need to cancel the appointment, but if you could get in like next month and I wouldn't worry until month 11 or 12.

Edit: didn't scroll to see if this was answered first!

[awkwardturtle]

CD/DPO: 26/10

Testing plans: I think tomorrow am!!

Things you're irritated about: N/A

Things you're excited about: For some reason I'm really hopefull for this month. I never have an indication of AF but most of my LP's have been 12 ish so I'll go ahead and test tomorrow if AF hasn't come

Questions or concerns about TTC things: N/A

Special shit you're trying this cycle: Nothing out of the regular

Q: if you could have one room in your house fully decorated and furnished like a catalog pic - what would it look like from which store? Bonus points for images. Probably my family room and look like pottery barn

[gizmo]

I'm mostly a lurker, but I hope you'll have me!

Cycle/Month: 4
CD/DPO: 28/11
Testing plans: Not at all, really. I mean, it's about that time, so if I don't get CD1 in a few days, then maybe. I am pretty bad about symptom spotting and getting my hopes up, but I've got nothing this cycle.

Things I'm irritated about: That DH and I didn't bang more often this cycle. We only really got one shot. We tried some other times but we both were just really run down and tired.

Things I'm excited about: I temped for a full cycle for the first time. I started a few times on earlier cycles, but I always stopped or forgot. After last cycle being super long and messing with my head, I decided I was going to stick with temping so I would know or have a better idea about O--if and when it happened. I got solid crosshairs on CD17, which actually works out fairly well for the one successful time Dh and I had.

Questions or concerns about TTC: None really.

Special shit I'm trying: actually temping consistently.

House decoration Q: living room, probably from pottery barn or restoration.

[peaseblossom55]

wirt2cute oooo I love your closet design especially the chandelier, H is working on designing me a walk in closet for this room off our master bedroom I love the chandelier idea.

[wirt2cute]

peaseblossom55, Oh that so cool of your H. I wish we had extra space to do something like that.

I've had solid crosshairs, and had them every time before (when I was trying for my first) so I really do think it's because I didn't use opk's until I confirmed ovulation (I had used them before/tracked cm).  I got annoyed after 10 days that my lines weren't getting any darker.   I'm just being all first world problem ish.  Seriously I'm being dumb and shouldn't complain about it.
