R/R/CS: I wish my body was gearing up to O soon, but I highly doubt it. I hate spending 30+ days here every cycle and then only 10 or 11 in the TWW. Come on body, cooperate!! *whining over*
GTKY: I plan to do lots of sitting in the sun and walking the dogs before I go back to work in a few weeks. All of our vacations and baseball games we had tickets for are over. I love summer and will be sad to see it go!

Cycle/Month: 5/6 actively TTC
CD:11
What are you doing to GKU? Metformin, Charting, PNVs
R/R/CS: **TMI warning - I have developed a UTI/bladder infection and starting urinating blood last night. I am headed to dr this AM but I am bummed that we are probably going to miss FW this month. We had hoped to HIO this weekend before DH leaves out of town for work M-Th. But there is no way that's happening now. Then FF threw me for a loop as my temp is rising the past two mornings. I think that could be because of illness as I have not had any other fertile signs but who knows. My body never knows what it is doing. I guess I could start OPKs today just so I know.
GTKY: Summer is almost over! What fun summer activities do you still have planned? We are planning to go to the state fair in a few weeks and to take the boat to the lake this Sunday. It has been an abnormally rainy summer here and we haven't been able to do as much due to rain and flooding.
kayladawn91 hopefully you O soon! I sometimes have longer cycles so I know exactly what you mean. It sucks.
Cycle/Month: 12/16
CD: 2
What are you doing to GKU? BBT, OPK, sex
R/R/CS: Freaking cramps. They always seem worse on day 2.
GTKY: Vacation in a week! I can't wait to have my toes in the sand and just relax. And since I'm not pregnant I will be drinking all the drinks. I'm so excited!
Ugh twocents6708, UTIs are the worst. I've been getting them fairly often during this TTC process and it's frustrating. I hope the Doc helps. I looked at your chart and it's hard to tell if you O'd maybe CD10 or if it is related to the UTI.
Cycle/Month: 8/9
CD: 7
What are you doing to GKU? Starting OPKs...today? Maybe? And then EOD sex, hopefully.
R/R/CS: Not much today.
GTKY: We head to the cottage in a few weeks for some relaxing time by the ocean. I. Can't. Wait.
What are you doing to GKU? BBT, and just waiting for spotting to stop.
R/R/CS: I had a lighter period this month, which is nice.
GTKY: Summer is almost over! What fun summer activities do you still have planned? I haven't been to the beach all summer, so I need to get off my butt and take DS. We'll probably go to the pool as well. And we need to plan another trip to Storyland.

Cycle/month: 3/3
CD: 1
What are you doing to GKU? Waiting to stop bleeding
R/R/CS: Bummed for CD1 but at least this cycle was a more normal for me 27 days rather than 36 days like the previous cycle.
GTKY: No fun summer plans. We tend to do more in the fall/winter since the weather here in Florida is usually much more pleasant rather than oppressively hot.
kayladawn91, hopefully your body cooperates soon twocents6708, I'm sorry about the UTI. Hope you feel better soon. Those are the worst! summerdonna, cramps suck!!!! Boooo!! sleepymonkey, sorry about CD1
Cycle/Month: 4/5
CD: 16
What are you doing to GKU? bbt, pnv, sex
R/R/CS: it is a beautiful day today!!
GTKY: we are headed to the beach Labor Day week, so I have that to look forward to!

Cycle/Month: 7s CD: 15
What are you doing to GKU: Nothing besides temping. Super low temp this morning. Normal for most cycles but my temp has stayed up this one...probably because it's been hot at our house.
RRCS: So. Much. EWCM. Sucks that H isn't here to take advantage of it, but at least we HIO yesterday, I guess. By my normal standards, I'll probably O tomorrow or Monday. Regardless, I doubt we'll hit any more days this cycle. Maybe one will do it.
ETA: How do I always forget to put the GTKY?
GTKY: If you count labor day as the last part of summer, then going to Sequim (sp?), WA. Schools here start in the middle beginning/middle of August so if I go by that, we have no plans.
R/R/CS: looks like I'll be chumming the waters. Hopefully I'm not the next shark attack victim
GTKY: Summer is almost over! What fun summer activities do you still have planned? I'm on vacation right now. We just got into South Carolina. I'm drinking all the drinks tonight.

Cycle/Month: Cycle 8 (6 AL)
CD: 9 What are you doing to GKU? Errything R/R/CS:
GTKY: Summer is almost over! What fun summer activities do you still have planned? BBQing, one more summer wedding, and a SUP class on Labor Day that I'm really excited about!
kayladawn91, I totally feel you on the later O times/longer cycles. Of the cycles I've tracked the shortest cycle I've had was 32 days. Most of them are in the 40s and one was 53.
Cycle/Month: 8
CD: 9
What are you doing to GKU? All the things
R/R/CS: When your cycles run longer like mine, this early part of WTO seems endless.
GTKY: Summer is almost over! What fun summer activities do you still have planned? To be honest... not too much. We'd like to take a trip to the zoo, but that probably won't happen. It's not a 'fun'summer activity but we're still debating on flooring. LOL

twocents6708, I am so sorry about your predicament. I've never had an UTI while charting, so I don't know if it would cause your temp to rise. Sucks that it is too early for OPKs but early enough that O isn't out of the question. Hope it all resolves itself soon.
What are you doing to GKU? Temping/charting and OPKs
R/R/CS: no +OPK yet. Waiting but very impatiently. Also messed up my temp this morning bc I was up in the middle of the night.
GTKY: Summer is almost over! What fun summer activities do you still have planned? Nothing, really. We just sold our house and moving to the new house next month. So the next month will be spent packing!!
What are you doing to GKU? HIO all the days we can.
R/R/CS: I can't believe we are on our 12th cycle.
GTKY: Summer is almost over! What fun summer activities do you still have planned? Not much. Headed back home from our 10 day vacation tomorrow. Bittersweet.

twocents6708, sorry about the UTI, that really sucks. I would ignore or exclude any temps taken while sick, because they tend to be high. Even a light cold increases my BBT 0.5 degrees or more.
What are you doing to GKU? BBT, CM, waiting for FW
R/R/CS: Waiting for the real action to start next week!
GTKY: Summer is almost over! What fun summer activities do you still have planned? I'm going to the beach tomorrow with some friends. I want to squeeze in a weekend getaway around Labor Day, but I don't have anything planned.
GTKY: Summer is almost over! What fun summer activities do you still have planned? I can't believe the summer has gone by so fast. Hopefully getting to the pool and beach a few more times.

Cycle/Month: 19/24
CD: 4
What are you doing to GKU? Sex, sex & more sex.
R/R/CS: This month is our two year mark. I feel so defeated and broken.
GTKY: Summer is almost over! What fun summer activities do you still have planned? Since we live in Fla., we are essentially in perma-summer so we generally do summer stuff year-round. #humblebrag

Big hugs. Don't let it get you down...I know it's hard and obviously I can't speak to your circumstances but I'm sending lots of fertile vibes your way. Smile and try not to stress it.

Cycle/Month: 7/4AL
CD: 7
What are you doing to GKU? Starting charting and will begin opks on Monday
R/R/CS: Nothing much...I found out someone who I know is pregnant and 5.5 is still drinking and smoking and not telling people she is preg go even though everyone knows. Makes me angry because I desperately want to be pregnant and she doesn't seem to give a shit that she is. Isn't that some form of child abuse? Unfair!
GTKY: Summer is almost over! What fun summer activities do you still have planned?
Nothing...everything sucks lol. Maybe some food truck festivals and I'm going to see Janet Jackson in concert at the end of the month which is exciting. Otherwise...nada.
I got crosshairs this morning at 9DPO. Not sure if I believe it but if so, it appears my body has gone from not ovulating to ovulating earlier every month. There is no consistency in my cycles and it is frustrating!
