dashook, Glad to see you over here. We finally escaped from WTO hell!
Cycle/Month: 9/11
CD/DPO: 24/3
Timing: good
Testing Plans: 14DPO or so
RRCS: Just happy to be on this side.
GTKY: What's something you're looking forward to this week? blah. It's going to be a pretty standard week. I am going to do our taxes soon, so I am looking forward to checking that off.
RRCS: Still feeling good and no TWW symptoms for me to obsess over.
GTKY: I'm looking forward to going for a few good runs, getting in some reading, and taking more time to meditate. Also, SUPERBOWL !! Just for the food and commercials.
ironbaby glad to see you too! I was stalking my FF friends list last night and saw that it had you at 2 dpo, and it made me glad. How funny that we ended up being O day twins after all!
Cycle/Month: 3rd PP cycle
CD/DPO: 26/3
Timing: -5, -4, -3, -2, -1, O, +1
Testing Plans: none yet
RRCS: if I don't get pregnant with this timing, I'm pretty sure the universe just hates me lol. Also, never again.
GTKY: I am weighing in today to officially kick off a 90-day weight loss challenge at my gym! No, not looking forward to the weigh-in itself, but I am excited to start weekly personal training sessions and I know I'll be totally motivated and inspired to eat healthy as well.
RRCS: just lamenting how different it is to be at 8 dpo or 10 dpo...and wishing I knew what it was!
GTKY: What's something you're looking forward to this week? Taking H skiing this weekend, we rented a cabin and two other couples are coming, for his bday. I'm taking Friday off, preparing tons of food for the weekend, and our puppies get to come with us. I may not ski at all and just hang at the cabin. (I'm hoping I get to do that...wood stove in a cabin, cooking all day, reading, and taking the puppies for some walks on the trails around the house...way more fun for me than skiing!)
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!
RRCS: A bit crampy. Typical pre-AF symptoms for me. I'm not feeling too optimistic this cycle because DH and I were both sick during my fw. On another note, my wondfo stash is gone, and it's actually helping me not obsess over testing. Normally I'd be chomping at the bit to whip them out on 10dpo, but now I'll only test if I'm late since it means going to the store to buy an frer.
GTKY: What's something you're looking forward to this week? Most of my work group had to attend a 3 day offsite meeting...so this week will be super quite (yay!). I get to work from home every day this week except Thursday. Really looking forward to being able to pick up around the house and get a few errands done during lunchtime.

Cycle/Month: first possible pp cycle
CD/DPO: 12 dpo?
Timing: good
Testing Plans: this morning. I think my eyes are playing tricks on me. Dh and I both think we might see something, but if so it's incredibly faint. Will test again tomorrow.
RRCS: I was so nauseous yesterday at church and felt faint. I'm either KU or my body is totally giving me a mind f#ck.
GTKY: What's something you're looking forward to this week? I have nothing fun planned. I'm taking our dog to get groomed Wednesday so I guess I'm looking forward to seeing him get cleaned up and looking sharp. He's a big golden retriever and officially goes to get groomed more than me.

That sounds like a really fun weekend! H and I go on "ski weekends" frequently even though neither of us skis haha. The cozy cabin is really the best part anyway!

Good luck, kleigh! I am envious of 2 back to back IUIs. My RE only does 1. dashook, holy timing girl! ironbaby, welcome! Good luck! wannabmama, your weekend sounds so fun! FX for you. ellabee, I think we have similar feelings toward this cycle.
Cycle/Month: 14/1AL
CD/DPO: 25/10
Timing: -2
Testing Plans: Tomorrow
RRCS: Eh - Temp is low, feeling crampy and bitchy. I'll test tomorrow if I don't have my period because I'm a glutton for punishment.
GTKY: What's something you're looking forward to this week?
I'm going to Hibachi tonight for my niece's 11th birthday. Should be fun!
dashook MH became obsessed with skiing last year...had never done it before. He wants me to love it so badly, but I just can't get the hang of it. I hope since has friends going this time, I'll be off the hook some and he won't be bummed if I don't want to ski. Seems like a lot of $$ to spend on something I don't love doing...

ironbaby, I love doing taxes. We are just waiting for MH's old employer to send the forms! wannabmama, what a fun weekend to look forward too! dashook, DH and I just started back up with a trainer, and it is nice to be back on track! I love how effective my workouts are with one.
Cycle/Month: 10/10
CD/DPO: 20/4
Timing: Ok, but would have preferred HIO a few more times.
Testing Plans: On 2/10 (DPO 13), only because we are heading to Mexico 2/13!
RRCS: Nothing here. Hoping that the TTW doesn't drag for 16 days like last month. It's a total mind f*ck, and it would likely mean that AF is in town on my cruise. DNW.
GTKY: What's something you're looking forward to this week? Getting new phones on Saturday I guess.
dashook - great timing! wannabmama - that sounds like so much fun! ellabee - $ store tests are cheap and accurate too!
Cycle/Month: 1/1 - TFAS
CD/DPO: 21/7
Timing: -5, -4, -3, -2, -1, and O
Testing Plans: I was going to wait until after any missed period, but I'm boarding the Crazy Train. See below.
RRCS: Yesterday (6 DPO), I had creamy brown discharge. Of course, Dr. Google calls it implantation bleeding. I know it's rare and according to the web, only 30% of women experience it. *previous BFP mentioned* With DD, I didn't have it and now I'm thinking I'm pregnant. I never spot mid-cycle and I had no cramps associated with it. Someone pull me off!
GTKY: What's something you're looking forward to this week? Supposedly getting the paperwork and salary details of promotion. Oh, I also bought a 12 pack of hard cider so I'll be drinking 'till its pink!
RRCS: I decided not to temp this month, but in the past FF has always told me I O'd the day I had a positive OPK (with one or two exceptions). So... anyway. I've never had cramping around O day. I had a positive-ish OPK on Saturday night. (Tested negative Saturday lunch). Then another positive OPK Sunday morning. I had a crampy feeling all Sunday morning. Negative OPK on Sunday night. Is the cramping the moment of ovulation/just something that happens around the moment of ovulation/or just my brain messing with me?
GTKY: What's something you're looking forward to this week? Friends invited us over for the Superbowl. All the yummy food! And a good friend is coming back from vacation - she was gone a whole month! I really missed her. And another good but very pregnant friend is leaving for vacation, so I'm happy about that - one month of no longer semi-avoiding things where she is going to be.
dashook MH became obsessed with skiing last year...had never done it before. He wants me to love it so badly, but I just can't get the hang of it.

Yes, this! So, I actually have never even tried it. And frankly I don't even want to at this point because a) it would cost megabucks just to go out for the first time (since I'd have to rent EVERYthing plus buy new clothes beforehand since I have nothing ski-appropriate), and b) if I end up liking it it's just another expensive hobby and I already have too many of those lol.
RRCS: Is not being able to stand my husband a symptom? Cause I had a lot of that this past weekend. The day would start off fine but by the end of the night he just annoyed the heck out of me.
GTKY: Looking fwd to Thursday! I took the day off to spend with DH, it's his bday. We have a lot of errands planned but hopefully he chooses a yummy place to go out for lunch.

If it is, then I'm totes KTFU. Mine has been testing my patience for weeks.
amparo1981, I get cramping during ovulation but it doesn't happen every cycle. FX it happened to you. jcrewgirl, that could be a good sign. Only time will tell. FX for you too my crazy train friend. dashook,ironbaby, welcome to TWW! WTO did a number on you this month I read. Best of luck now that you are here. And my total admiration dashook, that is some committed HIO schedule! kleigh, Good luck! I hadn't even realized you did 2 IUI's. wannabmama, your cabin idea sounds a lot better than hitting the slopes. My younger brother is trying snow boarding in CO for the 1st time and all I could tell him was to watch out for the trees. ellabee, enjoy your week at home! lgraceh, hope you get your answer before the trip! requiressnacks, sorry you're already feeling this way.
I am excited for the BFP, but trying not to get too carried away yet due to the two c/p I had previously. Though I do have a good feeling about this one Thanks everyone for all of the support you've given over the past few months! It really helps to have a place to talk about things when you don't want to tell your other friends that you are TTC. This place really is great for support and I am so glad I joined in on GKU. I hope to see a lot more BFPs soon!
