PnR today because I have a deposition all day, but I'll check in with you ladies later!!
Cycle/Month: 3rd pp cycle
CD/DPO: 35/12
Timing: -5, -4, -3, -2, -1, O, +1
Testing plans: BFN yesterday, will try again tomorrow if no AF before then
RRCS: temp wasn't sky high today but is definitely still well clear of coverline. We'll see. In the meantime I'm feeling queasy but that's probably just nerves because the lady I'm deposing today is BSC and despite my extensive preparation I'm not quite sure what to expect!
GTKY: what song is your jam right now? It's unclear to me whether this is cheesy or not, but I love that Daya song, Where Do the Good Boys Go, and jam out to it on my commute every day.

Cycle/Month: 9
CD/DPO: 19/7
Timing: -2,-1,O
Testing plans: Before betas on 2/16
RRCS: I need to call the RE today. We never discussed "what next?" if this cycle isn't successful. I think I'm going to get the HSG done next month because even though I know he said it's probably not a tube issue, I just want to rule that out. Now I'm just torn on whether to get my chicken pox vaccine like he recommended. I really hate to take a month off, though.
GTKY: what song is your jam right now? I don't even know. I listen to a lot of toddler music now because DD has an opinion on what we listen to. When it's just me, I really only listen to Alt Nation on Sirius. Currently I really like Unsteady by X Ambassadors and Mess Around by Cage the Elephant
RRCS: I like this part of the TWW. Its days 7-14 that I HATE. I never have any symptoms of AF until 7 DPO and then they come on strong mostly spotting and cramping which just sucks. So we shall see. If this cycle doesn't work we will be doing our first cycle with the RE. Just some monitoring and a trigger shot.
GTKY: what song is your jam right now? I like stressed out by twenty one points. There is not a ton out there that I am into right now.
Testing plans: I'm just going to wait out AF and then see what happens. I got my crazies out in my fake out cycle in November.
RRCS: CD 12 body?!!! WTF!!! This is the earliest I ever O'd since I started charting. It was the very first day of my predicted FW so we didn't get much of a chance. I guess if you're only going to hit one day O is the day to do it.
GTKY: what song is your jam right now? The Alanis Morrisette station on Pandora.
RRCS: Due to travel and generally being busy, I didn't pay much attention this month as I knew we wouldn't have any real time to try. Based on a temp I took today, I'm 98% sure I o'd, but I'm not sure when. I'm a few days past when my period was due, but had a negative test this morning. I know I must have just o'd later than "normal" and now I get to wait for a period sneak attack. Blargh.
GTKY: what song is your jam right now? I really like "America's Sweetheart" by Elle King at the moment.

RRCS: Just waiting now. So far I've had LP's of 11 and 13 days. CD1 could appear as early as tomorrow, or at late as Saturday. Gah. No spotting thus far. We shall see.
GTKY: what song is your jam right now? I'm all about Adele right now. Her new album is amazing.

RRCS: Contemplating trying acupuncture next cycle, but man, there are not many options in my area (read - only one person within an hour drive) and none accept insurance.
GTKY: what song is your jam right now? +1 to Alt Nation, sleepymonkey! I have been listening to some Vance Joy when I'm working in the kitchen. My favorite band, The National, recently announced that they won't have a new album in 2016, so that makes me sad.

dashook, good luck with the deposition! Sorry for the BFN. sleepymonkey, DS will tell me to turn the music up if it's too quiet in the car. Cracks me up every time. @irish, that is a great song, but it got played so much. DS and I still rock out to it if it comes on in the car. jense927, FX you won't need to follow through with that plan. penguin129, yay for O! FX for you that one time was enough. bex15, the only song from the Rihanna album I've heard is the one with Drake. I'm not a huge fan of either, but that song is catchy. icedtea, hugs. Hope you get everything figured out. RajahMD, FX crossed for you! daisy818, the little bit I've heard from Vance Joy I liked; I really should check him out more.
Cycle/Month: 1/1
CD/DPO: 20/6
Timing: -5, -4, -1, O
Testing plans: 2/19 if necessary (bumping it out a day because I sometimes start CD1 in the evening).
RRCS: This is the fourth day in a row I have driven to work in the snow. However, today is Red Sox Truck Day, which is the first sign of spring!
GTKY: what song is your jam right now?
Last night in the car, I was jamming to Cake by the Ocean by DNCE. It's just so catchy.
RajahMD Does your timing say O and -2? I thought -1 is the last to track. Just asking because we hit -2 as well.
It's just O-2. We only hit one day in the FW.
Generally speaking, sperm can survive for up to 5 days in the female body. The egg can only survive for 12 to 24 hours. For this reason, the accepted fertile days are O-5, O-4, O-3, O-2, O-1, O, and O+1.

daisy818, I've done acupuncture on and off for a while (for migraines and anxiety). I can't speak to its reproductive benefits personally, but in general I'm a big fan. I finally found one I like around me, but she's a ~50 minute drive and it's all out of pocket. I think it was something like $120 for the initial 2-hour appt, and then $80/followup.

Oh, and FF has done extensive research on which days have the greatest odds of leading to conception. Those days were O-2, O-1, and O.

RajahMD For some reason in my head I have after O as - not +. It all makes sense now. I meant I had O and O +2 (which doesn't mean a thing). Blah. So much other stuff going on. Sorry for my moment of stupid.

Cycle/Month:11
CD/DPO:10DPO
Timing:O
Testing plans:next week?
RRCS:got myself all psyched up to go against my resolution and test at 12DPO, but woke up to cramping this morning. Guess I'd better save some money and wait until I'm actually late before I pee on all the things.
GTKY: what song is your jam right now? "Don't marry her" by the Beautiful South.
I listen to a lot of toddler music now because DD has an opinion on what we listen to.
OMG. DD has cottoned on to the fact that if she doesn't immediately request a song when we go into the kitchen, I will be turning on the radio (which is apparently the DEVIL). And so now we are treated to the kid songs of Laurie Berkner and Woody Guthrie and They Might be Giants ad nauseam.
At least this means I have internalized a pretty extensive repertoire of songs I can sing with her when we're out on errands and she's getting fussy.....silver lining, eh?
dashook sorry for the bfn yesterday. Fx for tomorrow. And hope the deposition goes well. sleepymonkey fx you won't even have to go to "what's next," but good luck with the RE call. Toddler music is also our life soundtrack at the moment. I half regret introducing it to DD. penguin129 I can commiserate with the early cd12 O. I think that happened to me this month and it is the earliest ever! And first cycle TTC. icedtea traveling screwed me all up too this month! So annoying.
Cycle/Month: 1
CD/DPO: 22/10 I believe
Timing: O+1
Testing plans: none unless no AF at 14-15 dpo
RRCS: just realized if I open reply in another window, I am able to tag better on mobile.
GTKY: what song is your jam right now? I'm Gonna Stand By You by Rachel Platten is totally my jam right now. I love when songs give me goosebumps.
Sorry for the BFN dashook. With timing like that you can't help but root for someone-hope it's still just early!
Cycle/Month: 6/8
CD/DPO: 26/3 or 26/4
Timing: Good, either way (-3, -1 or -2, O)
Testing plans: Not for a long while
RRCS: FF moved my CHs after I inputted today's temp, which I contemplated not entering at all because it's never super accurate after I work nights. I don't have strong feelings one way or another for CD23 vs 22. Meh.
GTKY: Apparently, I'm the only one who likes country? I'm loving "I love this life" by Lo Cash and, although I'm not a big fan of them, "Confession" by FGL.
Post by smallpotato on Feb 10, 2016 13:52:58 GMT -5
britta, I listen to country music, but not as often as I used to. I'm not a big fan of FGL either, but I always stop the dial when "Cruise" comes on. Maybe that's a FFWC?
dashook sorry for the BFN sleepymonkey I also hated taking the time off for the chicken pox vaccine. I know I had it as a kid, but only tested equivocal. And then my GP (the only place I could find the vaccine) made me do the 2 shots course, so I was TTA for 2 months. Hopefully you only have to take 1 month off. @daisychain I have really enjoyed acupuncture but I'm lucky enough to have one that specializes in fertility only 15 minutes from me. Although she is out of network for insurance ($100 for 1st session, and now $75-85 a session), I am able to get reimbursed through FSA money.
Cycle/Month: 16
CD/DPO: 24/10DPIUI/9DPO?
Timing: good
Testing plans: Before betas on 2/16
RRCS: Just having constant internal dialogues about when to start testing, argh!
GTKY: what song is your jam right now? I'm also really enjoying twenty-one pilots. Their concert in my town in July sold out the first day tix went on sale. No I didn't get any.

dashook sorry for the BFN! @irish I also try to just wait for AF but usually I get too crazy on the symptom-spotting and convince myself I have to be pregnant and then I test and nothing. Would love to have more willpower. jense927 i agree that the first part of the TWW is easy and the second part makes my brain melt with how much anxiety and excitement it brings. icedtea it sounds like you need a hug.
Cycle/Month: 13/10al
CD/DPO: 19/2dpo
Timing: as good as it could be
Testing plans:not until 15dpo if I can wait that long lol
RRCS: so far nothing
GTKY: what song is your jam right now? Ooh...so many. I killed it listening to Adele on repeat and have to take a break. I have been going back to some old school lately -- and and all 90's r&b/hip hop jams.

Cycle/Month: 5/5
CD/DPO: 18/3
Timing: -5, -4, -2, -1
Testing plans: Historically I'm an early tester. I'm going to try and hold out this month, since BFNs in the morning put a damper on the rest of the day.
RRCS: I bought a pineapple... I feel a little crazy trying it for the next few days, but I figure it can't hurt.
GTKY: what song is your jam right now? I rarely listen to music these days, so I have no idea.
