I feel like it's been forever since I've been able to play here!
Cycle/Month: 8/10 AL
CD/DPO: 28/4
Timing: -2, -1
Testing Plans: Nope
RRCS: I'm glad I O'd a couple of days earlier than I have been the last few cycles. I have dotted CHs so I really hope they stay where they're at. I'm happy with our timing and H hasn't been in the mood lately.
GTKY: I really love Olgas, but MH isn't such a big fan. He really likes Mexican, but I'm not always into that.

I love a good steakhouse dinner. Give me all the steak and yummy side dishes. For more casual dining, I am a big TGI Fridays fan. I joined their rewards program and they constantly send me coupons for free food.

Cycle/Month: 3/3
CD/DPO: 24/8
Timing: Excellent
Testing Plans: 1/27 at 12DPO
RRCS: I put one foot on the crazy train this morning when I had a temp dip. Of course my mind went straight to implantation dip. Someone talk me down
GTKY: H and I are going out to dinner tonight and I need inspiration! What's your favorite place to eat? Or what's your favorite type of food? We have some local favs. But if we're looking chain, we love Carrabba's. I love me some good pizza, Mexican and a good burger. Ultimately, I'm a meat and potatoes mid-west girl so take me somewhere with a good steak and some delicious form of potato and I'm happy.
RRCS: I put one foot on the crazy train this morning when I had a temp dip. Of course my mind went straight to implantation dip. Someone talk me down.
This being my first month of TTC, I didn't realize your temp dipped during implantation. I may jump on the crazy train with you, because mine dipped yesterday with an early morning side pain. I thought the temp dip was a bad sign given that I'd read your temp needs to stay up.

We love to eat out. Our favorite places here are Jaleo, a Spanish tapas restaurant, and Founding Farmers, classic American fare. We especially love FF because we don't drink but they have an excellent soda fountain with fun drinks for us too - sour cherry phosphates, jerk sodas, egg cremes. Love that place.

I don't normally play in this thread, but temperature fluctuations during the luteal phase are normal although they should stay above cover.
Many times you will get a pretty big dip 3-6 days after ovulation that is a secondary estrogen surge that will lower your temps for a day (not usually more than that). I think that is what I had yesterday at 5DPO on my chart (see my siggie).
Implantation dips can only be confirmed after a positive test. Temps can dip for many reasons and some women get pregnant without a dip and some women have dips without getting pregnant. This really isn't an exact science.

Thanks for the reality check - the temperature tracking this is the most confusing of any of this for me. I took a look at your chart, as well as those of others on FF, but it seems most women have a much larger range of temperature fluctuations than I do. Granted, I realize I've been tracking less than a month.

The first month of temping is the WORST about over analyzing every individual temp and trying to determine what it might mean. I've been temping for over a year and I still find myself doing it, especially now that I'm doing Clomid cycles.
I've wasted a lot of time and mental energy going down the Google rabbit hole of "temp drop 5 dpo" or "temp spike 10dpo" or whatever crazy thing my brain has decided is an issue.
Sometimes the Google search leads to actual science based information but usually it is a bunch of women spreading unicorn poop and glitter.

<--- so much this as someone in information services
I have been choosing not to google any of my symptoms - trying to only keep to the boards here and any information providing by the GKNU blog or FF. It is hard! But I think my new mantra is gonna be "unicorn poop and glitter" every time I get tempted here on out.

Cycle/Month: possible 1st PP cycle
CD/DPO: ?/3
Timing:
Testing Plans: no plans yet
RRCS: we are de-popcorning our guest bed room's celing today. Not very fun, but can't wait to get this room done before my mom comes in town next month.
GTKY: H and I are going out to dinner tonight and I need inspiration! What's your favorite place to eat? Or what's your favorite type of food? We don't eat out very often, but we almost always go to Tex Mex when we do. Here in Texas there are tons of good options.
CD/DPO:CD20 and I don't fucking know how many DPO I am at this point. I was thinking I knew within a day when I Oed, but now I'm wondering if I actually Oed on CD 14, rather than on CD11 or 12 like I thought. I have so many missing temps that I was going by CM because my CM is usually pretty reliable.
Timing: If I'm actually 8 or 9 DPO, timing is good. If it's later, it's not as good.
Testing Plans: Eh..
RRCS: I'm happy we haven't gotten any snow at all.
GTKY: H and I are going out to dinner tonight and I need inspiration! What's your favorite place to eat? Or what's your favorite type of food? Well, I live in CT and my favorite restaurant is not a chain. It's called Market Grille and it's fantastic. It's fabulous American food. Everything I've had there has been delicious, but my favorite dish is actually a pork chop, of all things. Seriously, look at the menu... the Berkshire Pork Chop. OMG.
*Anecdote from a lurker* - I've had a beautiful implantation dip at 7-9 dpo every month I've been TTC. I'm 0 for 13 for pregnancies. The only temp I care about during the TWW is the temp on the day I would expect my period (or the day before if it drops off then). Don't drive yourself crazy trying to read tea leaves with temps.

Cycle/Month: 12/12
CD/DPO: 33/10
Timing: Hit 3x
Testing: 27th
RRCS: Today is great I contemplated testing this AM but I didn't cave! And we started our house hunt this afternoon. Saw a couple really nice ones, a couple fair ones, and a couple no-go ones.
GTKY: Oh! I love Thai food but H is less enthused by it so I don't get it often. If we're in the mood to spoil ourselves, we get sushi or Greek. Tonight we're going to an Irish pub that we love and don't frequent often enough
