thanks for the reassurance girls! I have been checking my cell phone every five seconds... slide up- let it light up- check "missed calls" (just in case it's not showing on the display) - close. sit 3 seconds. slide up. light up. ahahaha it's a viscious (sp) cycle.
YYYM- I totally think you should stop temping. maybe do what Lyndzies does, and try to temp for like 5 days before expected O, then if it's confirmed, or even close to confirmed, then stop temping- like 4 or 5 DPO. that's what I would do if i still wanted to temp. as it is,. i was sick of it. it was jsut one more thing over which I could allow myself to obsess. and it was useless.
I think with all your CM symptoms usually, you should be fine to just use the FAM method- ESPECIALLY given the erratic temping conditions! what with your "help" from DD, plus little, and interrupted sleep, etc.
of course, if you had asked me like 4 months ago, i would still think temping was the path to TTC sanity... clearly, it wasnt for me! so, take it all with a grain of salt. It seems from my perspective that you stress yourself out about the temps even though you know they're not that accurate. and I dont want you to be stressed.
Lyndzies- your timing is going to be good. and PM insems are good, IMO, because you'll get more lying down time shortly after, since it's close to bed time. maybe watch a movie in bed or something, if you have TV in your bedroom?
Nanette- i am with YYYM- this is going to be super fetile cycle for you.... get on it!
enigo- is DS being a little "nicer" to you today?! i sure hope so. you deserve a little break.
OK, off to the bathroom- dont worry, i'll bring my phone (and answer it) in the bathroom!!!
hope you're all having a good day. mine is draaaaaaaaging by.

for you (and step away from the tests/thermometer, if you can) 
darn.
You crack me up! It's still early yet!!
also, an idea, maybe you can see the RE thurs or fri for a beta? that way you'll get in, get results, and you can always compare them to today's to check for doubling without having to agonize over the weekend.
what a butt-insky! my ILs are always telling us in their own way how glad they are that we're not having another baby yet and talking about child spacing and blah blah blah. twist the knife, won't you?
