Cycle/month:4/4 NTNP
CD: 6
What are you doing to GKU?: tracking temps, opks and kind of external cm. Bought Preseed this month. Aiming for EOD+ sex next week.
RRCS: see qotw. I have a daily alarm set, but my wake up time is a 3+hr window depending on whether DH or I am working etc. I try to keep my thermometer in view on my nightstand, but apparently I get up in such a daze that I don't see it.

alwayscheese, it's not about seeing your thermometer - you should be reaching for it before you you get up. My alarm goes off on my phone, I hit snooze then grab my therm which is directly beside my phone. If really just takes getting in the habit, try to make it the last thing you think about before you go to sleep.

I know, it really is habit. Something I'm terrible about. I did it for 6 months pry, then ton a break for less than a month and I can't get it back. I've got two temps from 6 days this cycle. :/ hopefully I'll get it together in time to catch a temp shift

Cycle/month: A lot - something like 30 or 31? Since 2014.
CD: 12
What are you doing to GKU?: One last shot for a sex baby before IVF! Dealing with some medical issues with DH, so just hoping to hit this week. Temping and OPKs right now
RRCS: I've gotten so lazy about temping after taking a month off.
QOTW: tips for remembering to temp?? I set a special alarm that is purely a temping alarm - I set it to go off 15 minutes before the earliest time I would normally get up (for me, that's 6:30 am every day). My thermometer is right next to my phone on the nightstand, so when that alarm goes off, I turn it off, grab the thermometer, temp (sometimes I fall back asleep and wake up when it beeps with the temperature reading), then go back to sleep. I check the temperature and log it in FF after I actually wake up. I found that I very very rarely turn off the alarm but fail to temp with this system.

Tomorrow is CD14. I'm TTA this cycle, but I finally got some OPKs and I'd like to test them out. I've Oed on CD 17, 16, and 18 the last 3 cycles. Should I use one tomorrow or wait until Friday?

I have lots of cheap wondfos that *might* give be faulty.(or is it just the hpts?) So I'd use one tomorrow, personally. I used one this morning and it was pretty close to positive, if not totally pos. If I do one tomorrow it will probably be even darker. I got a pack of 50 which I'm hoping might be enough for the whole TTC process, so I only wanted to use a couple this cycle. What are yours doing that makes you think they're faulty? |

Like daisy818 said I used to set my alarm for the earliest time I get up but dh would get really annoyed where we were sleeping later and I forgot to change it. Now I'm putting the thermometer on top of my phone and that is working! radiantfate |
