Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: I'm still bummed that I got AF early, turning 10DPO into CD1. Hopefully that was just a fluky short LP. Otherwise, I'll be calling my doctor.
GTKY: What is the highlight of your weekend? I'm not sure if this is a highlight, but tonight we're going to my DD's school for a Halloween party/dance (her school is grades 3-5, and siblings also go). It will be loud and crazy and DH and I will require wine after it. LOL

TTC since July 2014. CP March 2015. IVF #1 March 2016, 5R, 3M, 2F with ICSI. Transferred 2 on day 3. CP. Surprise BFP and then CP August 2016 (prep cycle for IVF). IVF #2: zero eggs retrieved IVF #3: 6R, 5M, 5F, 3 (2 8A and 1 11A) transferred, one "B" graded embryo frozen on day 5. BFP (at home 7dp3dt, confirmed 14dp3dt with 1552 beta) and U/S at 5w5d, 2 sacs and 2 yolks!
ironbaby I go in for a monitoring u/s next Thursday and they'll update me on how the follicles are doing and then we keep checking until they're big enough...I guess it can vary a lot how long it takes based on how my body responds to the clomid.

Great! Just an unsolicited piece of advice - I O'd this cycle in CD13, which is crazy early. So just start your OPKs earlier than you normally would. Obviously you may not O early, but I almost didn't catch my surge and I would have been really upset if I missed it. Good luck!!!!

Thanks! I never get positive OPKs (but I'm going to try again anyway) but they are going to do monitoring u/s starting day 10 so hopefully we don't miss it (and also hopefully I don't O when I usually do...cd16-20....that's potentially a lot of u/s!

Cycle/Month: 18/17 sigh
Cycle Day: 13
What are you doing to GKU? The usual, + vitamin D
Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: Gah, I had to get up early this morning and forgot to temp! Annnnd I expect to O, like, today or in the next couple of days. Blergh.
GTKY: What is the highlight of your weekend? I hope it involves sleep, but we are maybe going to the renaissance festival too. This week has been kerrrrazy - my office has been hosting a conference and international meeting. I have spent every day since Monday either running around like a crazy person taking event photos or dashing back and forth between my office and the hotel (in heels and a dress!). We also had a fancy-pants reception at an embassy on Wednesday night, and a U.S. Capitol tour followed by a ridic four-course banquet last night, which I had to photograph. I cannot wait for 5pm.
Cycle/Month: 10/17 Cycle Day: 8? What are you doing to GKU? Everything Rants/Raves/Chart Stalks: Hm. Maybe I should start OPKs today, per requiressnacks recommendation. Never gotten them to be positive/catch an egg, but hey, what could it hurt, right? GTKY: What is the highlight of your weekend? Chocolate Decadence fair at a casino a bit aways. It's gonna be freakin' awesome.
Rama, wannabmama - My RE has everyone use CB Digitals (yes, they require CB) starting on CD10.
I'll stick to the OPKs that don't run me out of house and home. ;) But thanks for the recommendation! If I can't get other things to work, I might try them. I'm just hesitant to spend any more money on my failure of a body than I need to.

I feel you on that one, they are pricey. My RE probably owns stock in CB or something. LOL

My RE requires that we use them as well. Their reasoning is that the results are easier to verify by the user, and therefore there is less user error...but if she knew how good I was at analyzing a cheapie...eh.
