i know this is a day early, but i'm still making sure i have everything worked out on the 1st post. plus, since the 1st day of the month is a monday, i didn't want anyone's monday check-in to get lost on the september thread. feel free to start posting here, or continue using the sept thread for today, whatever floats your boat!

updated to here!

the MIA list will be updated later this week as well.

[AnneCordelia]

Monday Check in:
Name: Emily
Date: Sunday Sept 30
Where are you at in your cycle: I'm 5dpo now! WOOT!
Appointments: None
Symptoms if they apply: None, except that I have a cold, so any symptoms might be masked by it.
Testing: I'll start testing in 4 days, at 9DPO and continue testing until AF arrives or BFP.
Thoughts:

[KittyMommy4]

Monday Check in:
Name: KM4
Date: Sunday Sept 30
Where are you at in your cycle: 14 DPO
Appointments: None
Symptoms if they apply: Had cramping (8-9ish DPO), still sore breasts but I had these last month and no BFP
Testing: If I am lucky enough to not have AF mid week or temp drops I will test thursday-ish
Thoughts: My chart is wacky wacko this month, I O'd about a week late, and now my temps have been dropping a few days in a row but I think its too early for the standard pre-AF drop since my LP is on the long side. I dont have high hopes for a BFP this month but I can always dream.

[CelticAngel]

Monday Check in:
Name: Jennifer
Date: 10/01/07
Where are you at in your cycle: cd 30
Appointments: None
Symptoms if they apply: I have so many that come and go I don't know if I should keep track of them or not. One that doesn't seem to go away is bloating and gassy feeling.
Testing: In a week if I still don't have AF.
Thoughts: I tested yester day and got a BFN. I'm not sure if stress and being sick caused my o to be late or if my cycle is going to be wacky like last cycle. I was regular 30 cycle girl until we started trying to concieve. :

[Alcyone]

Monday Check-In

Name: Lorry
Date: 1 Oct
Where are you at in your cycle: CD 9
Appointments: None
Symptoms if they apply: just waiting for CM
Testing: N/A
Thoughts: not really, I'm still waking up!

[oceane]

I am 25 now, if you get the chance to change my age that would be very kind!! thanks.


Date: 10/01/07
Where are you at in your cycle: CD 22, pre o
Appointments: need to make one, for blood panel. have exam first, so I'm not in the mood to deal with that
Symptoms if they apply: sticky.
Testing: I bought OPKs on sale, now I don't want to use them before creamy CF. would be a waste of money. even on sale they're expensive!
Thoughts: Since I had major anxiety due to finals I wonder if it will affect my cycle (irregular as it is, it won't even matter I guess). I also drink green tea and try to stick to my herbal routine. tough one: I think I should reduce sugar, I am so darn tired...

[AnneCordelia]

Happy Birthday Oceane! Did you do anything special?

I'm 6DPO today and loving the wait. Hahaha.

[xixstar]

Monday Check in!
Name: Karen
Date: 10/01/07
Where are you at in your cycle: CD 36/12DPO or CD1
Appointments: none
Symptoms if they apply: mostly AF symptoms, bbs sore, spotting - but have also have has three days of nausea that I'm trying to not get my hopes up on and just assume bad food choices for 3 days.

Oh and my thermometer has been wacking out on me giving me the same temp several days running, totally odd. but maybe it's working, maybe it's not.

[nicmazzei]

Monday Check in
Name: Nic
Date: 10/01/07
Where are you at in your cycle: CD 8
Appointments: Mayan Abdominal Massage 10/17
Symptoms if they apply: I'm getting a cold, I think. Totally unrelated, but unwelcome.
Testing: I'll start OPKing today. I can't let these unpredictable temps catch me my surprise!
Thoughts: I'm pretty mellow at this point in my cycle. My temps are bugging me a bit. They're still really high, and getting higher, even though I stopped spotting yesterday. I've also been taking them at random times over the weekend, nursing more than usual and forgot my bottle of vitex at work!!!!!!!!! :

I guess that has a lot to do with it. We did, however, star BD fest yesterday. We have a bet going for who will say, "no" first. I don't think DH has a clue what he's up against! :

[Aly22681]

Monday Check in:
Name: Aly
Date: 10/1/07 (OMG I cant believe its october already)
Where are you at in your cycle: Cd 4
Appointments: 10/9/07 ultrasound to check my eggies at CD12
Symptoms if they apply: nope
Testing: OPK starting CD 10
Thoughts: Hummmm, I waiting on the Clomid crazies that everyone tells me about to kick in. Im only on day two of my first cycle of it but I am generally already crazy while TTC hahha.

: that's a great idea! maybe i'll try that out next cycle if we didn't catch the egg this time.

Monday Check in:
Name: Kelly
Date: 10/1/07
Where are you at in your cycle: cd26, 8dpo
Appointments: no
Symptoms if they apply: bbs feeling very sore and heavy. thought i was leaking ever so slightly last night, which would be absolutely strange. i haven't : since dd was 17mos, and she's 19.5mos now. i've been pretty much dried up for at least a month now. still into salty snacks, still feeling quite moody. i was also rediculously tired yesterday, with a mild sore throat yesterday and today.
Testing: i'm trying to resist until 10dpo with fmu, which will be wednesday.
Thoughts: i dunno girls, i'm trying really hard not to get my hopes up too much, but i'm feeling like this might be it. this feeling in my breasts is oddly reminiscent of when i got pg with dd.

but even if i'm not pg, and all these "symptoms" are just my hormones coming back online, it's a great thing. my temps pretty much always plummet on 8dpo, and af arrives that night, not so today though. my temp is up and it looks like i'll hang on at least one day longer, if not more. i'm absolutely thrilled with the prospect of a LP that's long enough! :

p.s. updated. thanks for bolding your request oceane!!!

thank you! No, I didn't do anything special, I had to study for finals. But DH got me a nice big package from amazon supposedly arriving any day well, honestly I chose my own gifts *cringe* but he was at a loss this year..

Monday Check-In
Name: Margie
Date: 10/1/2007
Where are you at in your cycle: CD14
Appointments: Chiro today. Hooray! My back is messed up.
Symptoms if they apply: None
Testing: Will start @ 10DPO
Thoughts: Ovulated on Friday or Saturday and had my temp spike this morning. Now I'm just waiting....I have never had breast tenderness unless I was pregnant until this cycle and the previous. It starts immediately after I ovulate. I think progesterone causes it, which is a good thing for me because I was diagnosed with severe estrogen dominance after my first loss. What do you think? Breast tenderness in 2WW a sign of healthy progesterone levels?


Happy Birthday Oceane!

[Everrgreen]

Monday Check-In
Name: Gillian
Date: October 1st!
Where are you at in your cycle: CD 16
Appointments: None
Symptoms if they apply: I had some unusual mid-cycle spotting yesterday. I don't think it was due to ovulation because I haven't had any ewcm or O pains.
Testing: None
Thoughts: Just waiting to O and hoping I set a new personal record for earliest O date. I'm feeling very relaxed about this cycle (I say that now ). *sigh* waiting waiting waiting...
