RRCS:

GTKY- Tell us 2 things... What are your top 2 favorite flavors of ice cream or favorite ways to eat it?

[britta]

Cycle/Month: 6/8

CD/DPO: 32/9 or 10

Timing: Good

Testing Plans: Friday or Saturday this week, if necessary

RRCS: My temp was down some this morning, still above CL but it kinda surprised me. Especially since I had been up an hour before that with DS. It kind of killed my optimism for this cycle though. :/

GTKY- I love, love, LOVE Cookie Dough, but it has to be Blue Bunny brand. Otherwise I truly just love vanilla. I can add whatever I want to it.

[bex15]

Good Morning!!

Cycle/Month: 6/6

CD/DPO: 30/11

Timing:-2, O

Testing Plans: none

RRCS: Major temp drop below coverline this morning

GTKY- Tell us 2 things... What are your top 2 favorite flavors of ice cream? Cheesecake and Chocolate Peanut Butter, yum!

[penguin129]

Cycle/Month: 1

CD/DPO: 23/11

Timing: O

Testing Plans: Friday

RRCS: I've been waking up every morning for about a week with gas. It is making me crazy because I had gas a symptom with DD. My temp is starting to trend closer to the cover line so it may be nothing at all. FF predicts AF Thursday. If I make it until Friday with no AF I'll test again (since I got my crazy out yesterday).

GTKY- Tell us 2 things... What are your top 2 favorite flavors of ice cream or favorite ways to eat it? I love Edy's (sp) Chocolate Thin Mint Ice cream and I love Kilwin's Chocolate milkshakes (even thought they are pricey). I miss Friendly's Fribble Shakes.

[penguin129]

Hugs bex15.

britta How much did your temp drop? Mine dropped a bit too. It was messed up because of a big nasty thunderstorm that woke DD up around 430 am. I had trouble falling asleep and my temp at 430 and 630 were the same.

[sleepymonkey]

Cycle/Month: 9

CD/DPO: 25/13 (maybe)

Timing: Good

Testing Plans: BFN this morning.

RRCS: Temp was still up this morning so I tested. I usually have an 11-12 day LP with a temp drop a day or 2 before CD1 so it's weird for me to be 13DPO with temps still above 98. I'm pretty sure the trigger didn't work and I actually O'd later which means our timing would have been non-existent. RE still wants me to go for betas today so I'll do that but now I'm just going to sit and wait for CD1 and try to decide what our next course of action will be.

GTKY- Tell us 2 things... What are your top 2 favorite flavors of ice cream? Cookies 'n Cream and Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough. Great. Now I want ice cream.

[sleepymonkey]

penguin129, I love Friendly's. I really loved their Butter Crunch ice cream when I was younger and I keep thinking I need to go buy some to see if I still love it. We actually still have a Friendly's over on the beach here but we just never go. Maybe I'll convince MH to go this weekend.

[bex15]

I'm sorry sleepymonkey,good luck with whatever you decide to do next

[penguin129]

sleepymonkey Hugs. Is it possible the betas could pick up something an HPT can't?

I'm not sure. I suppose it's possible otherwise I don't know what the point is for doing them. Of course the lab I go to usually doesn't get results back to my RE for at least 2 days so by then AF will most likely be here. There is a lab that gets the results faster but it's across town and is walk-in only and I'm at work so I don't have time to drive there and then possibly sit around waiting to get my blood drawn.

Cycle/Month: 2/2

CD/DPO: 26/6

Timing: Good

Testing Plans: Weekend possibly

RRCS: I had a dream last night that took a test and got two beautiful pink lines. It was the best dream. Waking up this morning was a disappointment

GTKY- Tell us 2 things... What are your top 2 favorite flavors of ice cream or favorite ways to eat it? Mint chocolate chip and Sweet Frog Tart. I will take ice cream in any form with all the toppings please.

Hugs bex15 & britta for the temp drops  

sleepymonkey Hugs.

[bex15]

pivot,dreams can be such a mind fuck

[daisy818]

Hugs sleepymonkey

Cycle/Month: 15/14

CD/DPO: 26/11

Timing: O

Testing Plans: Maybe Friday if temp hasn't started dropping

RRCS: Ugh, now I'm letting myself get optimistic this cycle even though there is no reason to be (other than the "implantation dip" - squee?). I'm even already getting my pre-AF acne.

GTKY- Tell us 2 things... What are your top 2 favorite flavors of ice cream or favorite ways to eat it? There is a local ice cream place that has espresso Oreo that is amazing - DH and I love that place so much that we had some of our engagement photos taken there (I'll AW a PIP in a minute once I dig up a pic). My other favorite is Baskin Robbins Pralines and Cream - it was my Nana's favorite so it always reminds me of her.

[jubilantsquirrel]

Cycle/Month: 4/4

CD/DPO: 33/7

Timing: -4, -3, O

Testing Plans: If I can make it past 9DPO then I'll think about testing.

RRCS: I'm not hopeful for this cycle. I have no reason not to be, but for some reason I just think I'm going to get my period by the end of the week.

GTKY- Tell us 2 things... What are your top 2 favorite flavors of ice cream or favorite ways to eat it?
Peanut butter and chocolate is my absolute favorite! I love Umpqua and Tillamook brand. From Baskin Robbins I love Gold Medal Ribbon (vanilla, chocolate and caramel). I like to eat all ice cream with a spoon

+1. And that dress is adorable!!!

[notagoddess]

britta, I'm sorry you're not feeling optimistic about this cycle.

bex15, that sucks about the temp drop. Hugs.

sleepymonkey, I'm so sorry about this cycle not working out. That is frustrating that the trigger didn't work. I hope the RE can provide you with answers and a better plan going forward.

daisy818, that is a pretty chart.

jubilantsquirrel, it's hard when you don't feel hopeful. I hope you're wrong though.

Cycle/Month: 11/10 AL

CD/DPO: 25/9 or 6

Timing: Either high or just O-3

Testing Plans: Saturday

RRCS: Still not sure about O date, but I can't change anything at this point. I just have to wait.

GTKY- I'm loving salted caramel lately. My favorite way to eat is is on a cone, outside in the park, on a warm sunny day.

Cycle/Month: 16/12

CD/DPO: 16/3

Timing: good

Testing Plans: we'll see when we get there

RRCS: it makes me giggle to think if this cycle does work out we would have a valentines baby, which I'm sure would mortify the kid if they ever did the math, but I also know not to get too hopeful

GTKY- Tell us 2 things... What are your top 2 favorite flavors of ice cream or favorite ways to eat it?
From the grocery store, cherry Garcia. From an ice cream shop, cookie dough in a waffle cone

At some point every November baby realizes this and shudders a little.  Including this girl, even though I was probably more of a week after Valentine's Day baby. *shudder*

[cheezee]

bex15 sorry for the temp dip
sleepymonkey sorry for the BFN. Hugs.

Cycle/Month: 9/10

CD/DPO: 4dpo

Timing: -1, +1

Testing Plans: 12dpo

RRCS: nada

GTKY- Tell us 2 things... What are your top 2 favorite flavors of ice cream or favorite ways to eat it?
I love Ben & Jerrys Half Baked. It just has all the good stuff in there. Otherwise I'm a mint chocolate chip girl.

britta How much did your temp drop? Mine dropped a bit too. It was messed up because of a big nasty thunderstorm that woke DD up around 430 am. I had trouble falling asleep and my temp at 430 and 630 were the same.

.3-.4 degrees. I would have expected it to be higher since I didn't get but maybe a solid 40 mins between when DS went back to bed and when MH's alarm went off (when I usually temp). I didn't think to temp when I heard him wake and also didn't think to temp again after I woke up the second time. (I go back to sleep after H gets up for about an hour)

Fingers crossed for you, britta.
So sorry, bex15. Hugs to you.
penguin129, I'm with you on comparing symptoms (see my RRCS). I also miss Fribble shakes!
Sorry for the BFN, sleepymonkey.
pivot, dreams can really suck sometimes.
daisy818, that pic is adorable.
jubilantsquirrel, FX for you.
ugaqueencity, MH is an end of October baby, and my BIL likes to tease him and call him Valentine for that exact reason.
notagoddess, I love salted caramel ice cream too.

Cycle/Month: 1/1

CD/DPO: 26/12

Timing: good

Testing Plans: Friday, if I can hold out that long.

RRCS: All aboard the crazy train! I've been a little nauseous since Saturday. That was my first symptom in both my loss pregnancy and DS. I had a slight temp drop this morning, though, so I guess I'll wait and see what happens tomorrow morning.

GTKY- Tell us 2 things... What are your top 2 favorite flavors of ice cream or favorite ways to eat it?

Chocolate chip cookie dough or Moose Tracks with vanilla ice cream, with all the caramel sauce in a waffle bowl.

[jense927]

sleepymonkey, Sorry about the BFN. I didn't realize that the trigger could just not work...would you need to up the dosage for next cycle or?

[Deleted]

Cycle/Month: 1AL

CD/DPO: 23/8

Timing: good

Testing Plans: Saturday 12dpo for drinking purposes

RRCS: just trying to resist the crazy train and the desire to pee on things.

GTKY- Tell us 2 things... What are your top 2 favorite flavors of ice cream or favorite ways to eat it?

Anything with peanut butter
Mint choc chip

Always In a cup, never a cone

sleepymonkey , Sorry about the BFN. I didn't realize that the trigger could just not work...would you need to up the dosage for next cycle or?

I'm really not sure. I know they say it is incredibly rare for the trigger to not work but it is possible. I have a history of needing higher dosages (or longer courses) of a lot of meds for them to actually work for me. I think I may discuss that with my RE when I see him next and see if he will consider upping my femara and ovidrel (if that's even possible).

[daisy818]

Ugh, now I'm symptom spotting, which I'm usually good at avoiding. But I've started having distinctive cramping on my left side (feels like ovulation pain, but obviously that ship has sailed). I don't usually have cramps pre-AF, but you know how bodies be - they work one way until they don't, and they don't so much care what we would like them to do.
