Happy Black Friday, Hope you all that went shopping got good bargains!!!  I am doing a little shopping online at Kohls.  I may head to the stores in a few hours. 

Cycle/Month: 5/5

CD: 2

What are you doing this month:  Probably drinking green tea, temping, opk's, pnv's.  I'm going to start checking my cervix and checking internally for cm since I never notice any otherwise. 

Thoughts/questions/vents: This is the only cycle that I will be thankful for.  I should have avoided last cycle, because the thought of a third cycle in a row becoming pregnant and losing it would have been to much.  I thought I could handle it but the farther past ovulation it got I got so anxious. 

GTKY: When do you begin decorating for Christmas?  I got all my Christmas totes out yesterday and I have a wreath up. It was 9:30 before we got home yesterday so I was tired.  I'll get the rest up this weekend.

Cycle/Month:1/1

CD: 16

What are you doing this month: first month back from a period of break, temping and having sex. :D

Thoughts/questions/vents: I'm worried about repeating temps (96.8 & 96.93) that continually come up... I may need to purchase a new thermometer for next month. 

GTKY: When do you begin decorating for Christmas? Soon! I'll start collecting the Fall/Pumpkin/Harvest/Thanksgiving theme decorations to store away. H loves decorating for Christmas and we end up spreading it out over a few weeks to really enjoy it.

CD: 1

What are you doing this month: OPKS and I'm thinking about getting Preseed too but haven't decided yet. 

 

Thoughts/questions/vents: I was excited to O last month as it was my first cycle off BCP. Hope I can do it again this month! 

GTKY: When do you begin decorating for Christmas?

I actually started on Tuesday...I'm a teacher so I had Wednesday off but knew I would be busy running errands and that we'd also be gone all day on Thanksgiving. We're putting up our tree this morning and then I'll be done! I absolutely LOVE my house at Christmas time!

What are you doing this month: everything

Thoughts/questions/vents: I totally F'd up this morning. My alarm didn't go off and I woke up an hour and a half late by the phone ringing. I got up out of bed while talking on the phone and totally forgot about temping! And today is CD 16, a super important day in my cycle! Grrrr! I'm mad at myself. 

GTKY: When do you begin decorating for Christmas? Usually I do the weekend after Thanksgiving, but I'm just not feeling it yet this year.

New to this check-in and hope I'm not waaay early since I'm only at CD2.  I'm just really excited to finally be trying and not TTA anymore.

Cycle/Month:  1/1

CD:  2

What are you doing this month:  We'll actually be FWP, I'm charting/temping, checking CM and will be using OPKs.

Thoughts/Questions/Vents:  Nothing as of yet!

GTKY:  We've already put stuff up, our Thanksgiving is in October, so I didn't have to wait for that to go by.  Last weekend we put up some garland and started our tree.

Cycle/Month: 9/8

CD: 4 or 5

What are you doing this month: I'm taking a long weekend temping break, but will resume my usual routine on Monday.

Thoughts/questions/vents: I'm torn between whether to call Monday or Tuesday CD 1. I did use a tampon on Monday, but it's questionable whether I really needed to or not. There was lot of brown, and just a little bit of red towards the end of the day. I'm not sure I'd really call it "red flow". But I could be fooling myself just because I don't want to mark down another 9-day LP.

GTKY: When do you begin decorating for Christmas? I don't decorate since we won't be home at Christmas.

Cycle/Month: 2/3

CD: 1 (YAY!)

What are you doing this month: Going to start with the green tea, trying to remember to temp

Thoughts/questions/vents: Just really happy that this is CD1.  My first cycle off BCP went 50 days so I was really excited when the last one was shorter.  I feel optimistic about this cycle.  Also, means I can have a few drinks at Christmas

GTKY: When do you begin decorating for Christmas? This is the first year we're actually going to be here so we have to buy decorations.  We're trying to decide on real vs. fake tree at the moment.

I did some shopping last night and some online. :) I may check out some online deals today.  

Cycle/Month: 1/2

CD: 17

What are you doing this month: Temping, OPK, Sex (of course)

Thoughts/questions/vents: I am hoping that I am Oing today. I had a big temp drop this morning and EWCM (which I know you can get anytime during cycles). This will be my first time Oing since my Mirena removal. :)

GTKY: When do you begin decorating for Christmas? We usually put the tree up today. H is at work though, so we will probably do the tree in a few days. The kids and I might put up some house decor today.

Happy Black Friday, Hope you all that went shopping got good bargains!!!

Cycle/Month: 3

CD: 3

What are you doing this month: Going to try OPK's this cycle and chart this will be the first whole cycle charting

Thoughts/questions/vents: Is it normal to have 3 days in a row of the same temp? Also, it may seem silly but do I count the time I came off BCP until I got a period (it was over a month) as a cycle? I have been, but I didn't know if that was correct.

GTKY: When do you begin decorating for Christmas? We will start today, but we already put the lights on the house. We wanted to do it when it was still nice outside, last year we waited until there was ice on the roof Tongue Tied

Cycle/Month: 4

CD: 2

What are you doing this month: Temping, OPK's and sex EOD... maybe ED during FW, not sure yet. 

Thoughts/questions/vents: It's too early in the game for any thoughts/questions/vents that are TTC related. I just hope this might be our cycle. Finding out about a little bambino right around Christmas would be awesome! :)

GTKY: When do you begin decorating for Christmas? I will probably start this week at some point. I need to have my husband collect all of our decorations from the garage. I also want to try some new pinterest decorations/crafts this year!

Thoughts/questions/vents: found out last night that TWO of my cousins are KU and due this summer.  My mom jokingly told me to "get on the stick" (ew... I guess it's a saying).  We are not really telling anyone we are TTC yet.

Cycle/Month: 3/3

CD: 10

What are you doing this month: Starting to temp again. I did it in the very beginning, but stopped because it seemed like my temps were all over the place. Using OPK's and banning my husband from the bath!

Thoughts/questions/vents: I really hate winter. I hate snow. I hate being cold. I will be in a constant state of grump from now until spring!

GTKY: When do you begin decorating for Christmas? We don't really have a lot of Christmas decorations since we just moved into our first house from an apartment! Since we only have SS half of the time we have to wait for him to go buy some decorations and cut down our tree. It's looking like we won't be decorating until 2 weeks before Christmas this year!

GTKY: When do you begin decorating for Christmas?  My tree has been up since the beginning of the week. Outside lights to be done this weekend!

Apparently it means to "get control of the situation" and originated from how older airplanes used to be flown (with a rudder and a stick).  But it was just the wrong context...

Three temps in a row the same are unusual, but not impossible. Are you recording 2 decimals or 1? Recording 2 might help, if you're not already. And yes, your first cycle off BCP was cycle 1 :

Thoughts/questions/vents: I'm having horrible cramps right now, that's about it. I'm also sad that I didn't take my migraine medicine last night on the off chance that I might be pregnant since my LP was longer than normal and then I started my period today.

GTKY: When do you begin decorating for Christmas? I usually start to decorate this week. We are not going to decorate as much this year because we will be in Paris over Christmas.
