What are you doing to GKU? BBT, CM, ED sex (for a change!)
RRCS: my temp finally went up this morning and there are no stupid reasons (like drinking) for it so I'm hoping this means I O'd yesterday. Of course, yesterday was the first time in 5 days that H and I didn't HIO since he got home from work after midnight. Sigh. Either way, I think I'll hang out here until I get CH, if that's okay. Really hoping it isn't a fakeout!
GTKY: Is there something in your daily routine that you absolutely cannot skip without it throwing off your whole day? What is it? My morning coffee! Not even because of the caffeine so much as how much more tolerable the traffic on my morning commute is if I have something hot and delicious to sip on. If I forget my mug at home (which has happened a handful of times in the past), I get grumpy!
FX you did O @dashook! I always hang out in WTO until FF gives me my CHs, I think you're good to stay AFM,

What are you doing to GKU? BBT, CM, MVs, just waiting for FW for sexy time
RRCS: Ugh. DS has a raging yeast infection from his antibiotics, despite me giving him yogurt 1-2x per day for the duration. He's had this problem in the past and actually required oral Diflucan to clear it up. He couldn't even sleep last night he was so uncomfortable from the pain and itch DH and I were also arguing, which is so rare. We didn't fall asleep until after 2 and H was up at 4:50 for work. I couldn't go back to sleep so I was going to workout. Power went out. Of course then DS woke up because his fan cut out. I just want a do over. Sorry...rant over...
GTKY: Oh boy. I'm a creature of habit and do pretty much everything the same way, at the same times everyday. I think my shower is the biggest thing. I don't feel awake until I've showered.
Sorry about the rough night last night, britta - hope your DS feels better soon

What are you doing to GKU? Temping, OPKs, seeing the RE
RRCS: Just waiting for the smiley face on the OPK. Methinks tomorrow? I think I'll take a cheapie after work to see how dark the line is (I'm one of the ladies who has a line that gets gradually darker over 3-4 days).
GTKY: Is there something in your daily routine that you absolutely cannot skip without it throwing off your whole day? What is it? I would say my coffee, because me so cranky without it, but today I forgot to put on my watch and it is driving me crazy.
dashook hope your temp spike is the real deal! britta I hope YS feels better and your day gets better from here! Cycle/Month: 16 CD: 12 What are you doing to GKU? Hoping we can get to the sex...my sickness is poorly timed! RRCS: my sickness has ruined all of my temps...they've been sky high (for me, pre-O) for five days so seeing when I actually O is going to be impossible. I hope I don't have a weird early O bc I want a chance to get in some sex...maybe I can muster up the energy tonight! GTKY: coffee definitely...as much for the routine of it as anything.

What are you doing to GKU? Waiting for AF to leave, BBT, OPKs, seeing ob this month to figure out "now what?"
RRCS: None today
GTKY: Is there something in your daily routine that you absolutely cannot skip without it throwing off your whole day? What is it? Putting on deodorant. My underarms just feel weird if I forget it.
kayladawn91 - Adorable avatar!! dashook - FX that you O'd! britta - Ugh. Sorry about the rough night. I hope today gets better and that your DS gets some relief! Poor thing! daisy818 - I hope O is right around the corner for you!

What are you doing to GKU? Sex (EOD at this point), metformin, PNV, BBT, CM, um - patience?
RRCS: Still no cross hairs - maybe due to my missing holiday temps and maybe due to my ridiculous body. Who knows?!?! Time will tell. LA LA LA.
GTKY: Is there something in your daily routine that you absolutely cannot skip without it throwing off your whole day? What is it? Like everyone else...COFFEE. Waiting for my french press to finish brewing right now.
TTC #1 March 2014 BFP #1 April 2015 - MC 12 weeks, D&Cs on 6/17 and 6/24 DX: PCOS & Endometriosis Current TX: Metformin and Femara Lap to remove stage 4 endo - October 2015
RRCS: I think it's time for a new bbt, mine has been giving a lot of temps which are the same as previous day. Question, when this happens I temp again immediately and if I get something different I'll use that one, is that the correct thing to do?
GTKY: Is there something in your daily routine that you absolutely cannot skip without it throwing off your whole day? What is it? Earl Gray Tea
ugaqueencity hugs. I'm sorry this cycle seems like a bust. I know what you mean about being a Debbie downer when DH is hopefully. This feeling happens to me alot lately.
What are you doing to GKU? PNV, BBT, OPKs, pre-seed, ED sex right now
RRCS: Got a positive OPK this morning, so I'll probably O in the next 1-2 days. Planning to HIO ED until O is confirmed.
GTKY: Is there something in your daily routine that you absolutely cannot skip without it throwing off your whole day? What is it? Working out. If I don't exercise in the morning, I feel sluggish most of the day.
RRCS: I think it's time for a new bbt, mine has been giving a lot of temps which are the same as previous day. Question, when this happens I temp again immediately and if I get something different I'll use that one, is that the correct thing to do?
I'm not great at what is correct vs. incorrect, but can I interest you in an anecdote?
If it were me, I'd do exactly what you're doing. Provided you haven't gotten up, moved around, drank water, etc. between the two temps, it's probably okay.
That said, if your BBT is acting up, you may want to look into that!
RRCS: I'm still here will negative opk's. I knew my early cycle temps looked like it would be a really long one again. Oh well. We've been getting alot of sex in this week since I've been off work. I hope we can keep it up until O finally happens.
GTKY: Is there something in your daily routine that you absolutely cannot skip without it throwing off your whole day? What is it? I need a minimum of 30 minutes in the morning dedicated to drinking my coffee and eating breakfast. If I'm rushed, my day is all thrown off.

What are you doing to GKU? Just plain ol' sex. Just got back home but going to my parents' place tomorrow until Sunday. We'll be DTD tonight but I've not had any physical O signs.
RRCS: Finally got my libido back, probably because we never have the privacy to actually do anything!!!
GTKY: Is there something in your daily routine that you absolutely cannot skip without it throwing off your whole day? What is it? Morning coffee. If I don't have that one cup I get so confused... it's not even the caffeine, I have the same effect with decaf!

dashook, are you HIO mostly every day? Kuddos. I don't have the stamina! Hopefully the timing was right anyway! britta good luck with the YI! That sounds horrible Poor guy! (poor you!) wannabmama, that sucks, feel better soon! ugaqueencity, not every day that I would voluntarily say this. I hope you're wrong. I hope your H is right. What kind of sick world are we living in mikaela20, I hope you O soon!
bex15, I find re-temping is a bad habit to get into, because it's a slippery slope to trying to just make the chart look pretty. I will get the same temp two days (even three days) in a row sometimes, and I just plug it in that way. If you are concerned, a new thermometer or new battery might be worthwhile - if you are getting drastically different temps mere minutes apart, that's probably a sign of a problem to begin with.

Morning! I've been MIA since we got to my brothers house. So busy!!
FX it's not a fake out dashook britta sorry about your rough night! Hope YS feels better fast!
Cycle: 18 total, 9 TTCAL Cd: 8 WAYDTGKU: honestly, nothing extra other than taking my pnv RRCS: I've gotten to that point of 'everything I've done so far really hasn't helped' so I've kind of given up a bit while on vacation. Helping take care of my baby nephew is kicking my ovaries in overdrive though lol GTKY: eating breakfast. If I skip it I'm a total mess.
dashook , are you HIO mostly every day? Kuddos. I don't have the stamina! Hopefully the timing was right anyway!
Lol I don't really either! We normally do EOD but over the weekend we hit 4 days straight, really just because it was a holiday and we could. So, if I actually did O yesterday, we hit -4, -3, -2, and -1. I hope that's good enough timing! Can't help but feel a little rueful about missing O day.
Thank you all. I just called his pediatrician and told the nurse what was going on. I also briefly explained his history with YIs (2 different creams and about 4 months before only clearing up with oral Diflucan) and she told me she had to speak with the pediatrician first but was pretty sure they would be able to just call in the Diflucan for us. FX.
What are you doing to GKU? Temping, sex as often as practical, checking CP and CM
RRCS: Still no CHs, put plenty of PMS symptoms. Yesterday's temp is all sorts of wrong thanks to only getting 4 hours of sleep (no more than 2 consecutive hours at a time), plus getting up obscenely early to be at the hospital by 7. If I discard that temp, Research mode gives me dotted CH for CD15. So maybe I did ovulate? I have no idea. Other than some questionable watery CM a couple days ago, no impending signs of O (no EWCM, no super high cervix, etc). Basically, I'm still in limbo of did I o or did I not.
GTKY: Is there something in your daily routine that you absolutely cannot skip without it throwing off your whole day? What is it? If I'm going somewhere, I have to shower. Nothing wakes me up quite like shower does. I am not one of those people who can shower at night and just get up the next day and head out the door.

What are you doing to GKU: Sex, temping
RRCS: I have a killer headache today and it's making my ears hurt. In other news, H and I had a fight about what to do about TTC and we ended up telling my parents about said argument. I think we both just needed to vent to someone outside of us so now they know we're TTC and they were sympathetic because they struggled back in the day, too.
RRCS: I have some pretty heavy spotting happening today. Every time I get mid cycle spotting my cycle tends to be on the longer side so I'm just gearing up for that. Super annoying.
GTKY: Is there something in your daily routine that you absolutely cannot skip without it throwing off your whole day? What is it?
R/R/CS: OPKs getting lighter. With the invalid test on Sunday night and forgetting to take a SMU one yesterday, I feel like I probably missed my surge. Combined with cramps, I think O is today, maybe tomorrow at the latest.
GTKY: Shower. I don't feel human until I take a shower and brush my teeth.
