Cycle/Month: 10's
CD/DPO: 22/3
Timing: -1, -5
Testing Plans: None
RRCS: I need to get up. I can hear DS up in his room. But bed is so warm. Today is going to drag.
GTKY: I actually have no idea. H's mom makes scalloped pineapple that's amazing. But my mom makes excellent food in general. Too many choices so I'll just go with scalloped pineapple.
RRCS: I went in for CD22 blood work this morning. Really didn't get a whole lot of information because the nurse was filling in for someone else. Couldn't tell me if they'd call with results or what all they were even testing me for. I'll probably wait and give them a call on Monday.
GTKY: What is your favorite thing to make or buy for Thanksgiving? Pecan pie! And stuffing! Also I'm a huge fan of cranberry sauce. It has to be canned cranberry sauce because I'm weird

thelittleredm what's scalloped pineapple?? Never heard of that! Cycle/month: 14 Cd/DPO: 23/5dpiui Timing: -2, IUI, +1 Testing plans: wed at the doc's RRCS: my temp finally went up to usual post-O level today, I know it means nothing but I'm happy nonetheless. GTKY: I love a good pie (sour cherry is my fave usually)...and wine. I love the sleepy feeling from Tgiving (sides mostly, not a fan of turkey) and some nice red wine....food coma at its finest!

Canned cranberry sauce is the best. Other people are weird
RRCS: The O cramps have subsided, I'm going to hang out here while I wait on my CH; if you ladies will have me. I have another monitoring appointment tomorrow.
GTKY: What is your favorite thing to make or buy for Thanksgiving? I love my grandma's dressing!

wannabmama, I think it's Hawaiian dish but I'm not sure. All I know is that she learned it from that side of the family. I'm not even sure what to classify it as. Bread pudding, maybe? It's super good lol I actually need to get the recipe from her but I'm sure it can be found anywhere online.
RRCS: Last cycle I only had a 9 day LP, so I'm kind of nervous.
GTKY: What is your favorite thing to make or buy for Thanksgiving? I don't ever cook for Thanksgiving; I bake. I love to make Pumpkin Pie Cake, which is super easy and super yummy. It's DH's favorite dessert, I think, of all time.
Timing: assuming I O'd yesterday, we hit -3, -2, and -1
Testing plans: Not even thinking about it until FF confirms O.
RRCS: I'm also hanging here until I get my CH if that's ok. I had EWCM on Friday, a positive OPK on Saturday, and my temp went way up this morning, so I'm guessing I O'd yesterday.
GTKY: What is your favorite thing to make or buy for Thanksgiving? I love turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, and gravy, but my favorite Thanksgiving food might be apple pie.

Cycle/Month: 1/1
CD/DPO: 18/1?
Timing: assuming O yesterday, -4, -2, -1
Testing plans: Sunday 11/22. FF says AF starts the 23rd and I have my niece's wedding on the 21st and I don't want to be in a bad mood for it if it's negative.
RRCS: Another hoping to hang out and participate while waiting for CH.
GTKY: What is your favorite thing to make or buy for Thanksgiving? I LOVE to bake so I usually bake a pie. I make stuffing too that really good. It has sage sausage, dried cranberries, and apples in it.
RRCS: I've decided to stop temping as it just causes too much stress. I am still having a little bit of cramping but not horrible. No spotting yet but 10DPO is usually the start of that so we will see..
GTKY: What is your favorite thing to make or buy for Thanksgiving? I am usually MILs designated potato peeler WOOO! But I love eating green bean casserole and stuffing
Cycle/Month: 13/13 CD/DPO: 29/12 Timing: -2 Test plans: none at this time
R/R/CS: My temp is back up a little today, but not as high as early on. All the cramping is gone too. No idea what to make of this. My LP has been getting steadily longer the last couple of cycles, so maybe I'll get an extra day?
GTKY: I'm usually in charge of rolls (I have a bread maker). Sometimes if I'm feeling ambitious I'll make cheesecake stuffed strawberries. H and I also make excellent twice baked potatoes.

pismoduo do you have a recipe for the stuffed strawberries? I'd love to make those to bring to a holiday get together I was assigned to bring a dessert to!

They're a little time consuming (hollowing out the strawberries and filling them, mostly) but they're so, so good.
Thanks!! I made a sort of piña colada filled strawberry treat for a summer party and they were a big hit. This is a great one to try next! (I get H to hull them, ha...it's a good task for him!)

jwinct fx for a positive test on Friday! jense927 fingers crossed for you this Saturday!
Cycle/Month: 10/7AL
CD/DPO: 16/2dpo
Timing: pretty good I think!
Testing plans: when ff tells me I should--so 15dpo unless I can't make it till then in which case I saw next Saturday at 12dpo
RRCS: Another pregnancy announcement on FB meanwhile I"m in tears cause my EDD from my miscarried pregnancy is next week (Nov 20). Trying to pretend like that date doesn't have to be a deadline of some kind but emotionally--a big wreck.
RRCS: I went in for CD22 blood work this morning. Really didn't get a whole lot of information because the nurse was filling in for someone else. Couldn't tell me if they'd call with results or what all they were even testing me for. I'll probably wait and give them a call on Monday.

+1 canned cranberry sauce is THE.SHIT. I will sit there and eat an entire can of the jellied stuff. Nomnomnom.
RRCS: H's semen analysis was normal. So that's a major relief for us. I also started synthoid today. I really like how things are moving along, finally.
GTKY: What is your favorite thing to make or buy for Thanksgiving? Oh I LOVE making pumpkin pie .. and eating it

mrss44 glad YH SA was normal! I can't get behind the canned cranberry sauce thing but it's my dad's favorite so it always makes me happy to see it even though I prefer the chunky tart kind myself

GTKY: I love turkey with stuffing. We usually add sausages wrapped in bacon too which are yummy. A question, is stuffing the same as dressing just cooked in the bird or is there a difference?

I'm not 100% sure on the difference. My MIL makes potato "dressing" and corn bread "dressing" for Thanksgiving. I think they might mean the same thing but depends on where you are from. She's from Texas but we all live in Ca. Her "dressings" are usually pretty moist and aren't crumbly where I see a "stuffing" as more crumbly. Not sure if I just made you more confused or not. LOL

North = stuffing, South = dressing, but they're the same thing. Though, like any food, it's probably made differently by region.
