R/R/CS: I slept til 7:30 this morning so my temp was way high. FF is drunk and gave me dotted CHs for CD16. But I've been getting all negative OPKs since CD14, and I didn't start getting fertile CM until CD18. So I'm going to stay here.
GTKY: I'm mostly Czech, but also some German and French.
ETA- Yay I just got a positive OPK, so FF took away the dumb dotted CHs!

What are you doing to GKU? Sex, although I tried to seduce H this morning before the kids woke up and he turned me down to go get chocolate peanut butter cake. #priorities
R/R/CS: Going out for lunch and pedicures with my BFF and am so excited.
GTKY: Where is your bloodline from? My dad is Portuguese and Italian (mainly Italian) and my mom's side is a giant melting pot with some American Indian.

I'm just pissed. CD1 started yesterday. Last cycle was my earliest O with a short LP (9 days) which makes it my shortest cycle yet. I am just full of frustration, sadness, and anger. Oh, and DH called insurance yesterday and absolutely zilch is covered (treatment or testing) through an RE. yay us.
Cycle/Month: 12(fuck)/3 AL
CD: 2
What are you doing to GKU? nothing right now
R/R/CS: see above. I guess I should have put that here. oh well.
GTKY: Where is your bloodline from? I think German and Irish.
What are you doing to GKU? Trying to eat better and focus on weight loss.
R/R/CS: This cycle's AF is confusing me so much. Maybe because I've lost some weight and eating relatively better it made AF more bearable and shorter? I have no clue.
GTKY: Where is your bloodline from? I'm mostly English/Irish. I've got the tiniest and I mean the tiniest percentage of Penobscot Indian in me.
Cycle/Month: 3/3 CD: 3 What are you doing to GKU: waiting R/R/CS: my temp jumped up this AM, and the info bit today on FF was is it normal for temps to be extra rocky during AF? So that was very helpful and appropriate. GYKY: I don't super know. Eastern European Jewish mostly but really not sure. My mom didn't know her deadbeat dad and she and my brother are super olive-y and I am medium olive skinned, which doesn't really fit. Also most my cousins and my brother have blue eyes and mine are green so I am guessing we have some other stuff mixed in. I tried to do some research on it on ancestry.com but it was not very successful. I find it really fascinating though. MH can trace his family super far back.
I'm sorry, hydrangea1019. I think that is unfortunately the case with a lot of insurance.
Cycle/Month: 13/12
CD: 12
What are you doing to GKU? Not a lot - I'm still temping because I like having the data, but the plan is to start seeing an RE and get testing next month once my new job starts and new insurance kicks in.
R/R/CS: Meh.
GTKY: Where is your bloodline from? About 50 percent Scotch-Irish, and the rest is a mix of German, Polish, and Czech.

Cycle/Month: 5 (I think?? Can't remember at the moment)/ 2 al
CD: 5 ( again I think I have to check FF to know for sure)
What are you doing to GKU? Sex, temping, pnv
R/R/CS: nothing really
GTKY: Where is your bloodline from? I have no figgin clue. Is that bad??? I think my mom might fall in the Irish catagory don't know. I think dads side of the family is actually from Africa but again I don't know.

CD: 10
What are you doing to GKU? BBT, OPK, the sex
R/R/CS: got nothing
GTKY: Where is your bloodline from? I am the biggest of European mutts. English, Irish, Dutch, Scottish, Welsh probably... I know my maternal grandfather's family had a castle somewhere over there (I forget which country though, I think Scotland).

hydrangea1019 - You might be able to work with the RE's office to make sliding scale payments or set up a payment plan. Don't give up.
Oh no we definitely aren't giving up. Just wish it was easier us know? My friend gave us the info of her RE. I looked him up and it looks like they have payment plans. DH is very supportive and is willing to try/do anything we can.
I definitely made some judgements on people we know (speaking only to DH) but I still feel bad that I voiced them. I'm feeling much better after getting out of the house this morning. Thank you all for the support.
Hugs, hydrangea1019. Sorry for the new cycle and bad news about the insurance.
Cycle/Month: 10/9
CD: 6
What are you doing to GKU? Ugh, still spotting. Otherwise, BBT, CM, and will start EOD and OPK's soon.
R/R/CS: I didn't bring my thermometer on our weekend trip... it's nice to get a little break from temping once in a while.
GTKY: Where is your bloodline from? I'm equal parts Irish, German, Polish, and Italian. I've always identified most with the Italian side, largely because my maiden name was very Italian. But now my married name is very German (DH is Irish and German).

Cycle/Month: 2/1
CD: 1??
What are you doing to GKU? Waiting until my period is over.
R/R/CS: what the fuck, body. I've been tracking my cycles since last October and my cycle is usually 28-32 days. CD 1 today makes my last cycle 19 days and if I really did ovulate a 7 day LP. And my temp is all over so who knows.

Cycle/Month: Cycle 6 (4 AL)
CD: 12
What are you doing to GKU? BBT, OPK, green tea, checking CM, and aiming for EOD sex.
R/R/CS: On vacation and living it up. Partied a bit too hard last night which makes sex not that appealing ATM.
GTKY: English and Scottish predominately. My dad's grandfather was a Scottish immigrant. We also have some native American and Irish from his side too. My mom recently did the DNA analysis through ancestry.com and discovered we've got a splash of French, Spanish and Greek too.

My maiden name and married name are very, very different. Mine is Irish and his is German.
My husband is German too. He has amazing blue eyes. My last name is very German. I get comments and questions about it often. It makes laugh a little when people assume I am German because of it.
