I hate when someone intros and people automatically tell them to start charting. It's not doable for some people and there is nothing wrong with trying without taking your temperature every morning for a while. I know charting works for some women, but I hate that people just automatically tell every intro to chart.
Yes, it's about the board, but I'm a rule breaker! Add yours!

Re: UO
Hmmm, my UO is that I think Krispy Kreme is gross. Actually, any donut not from dunkin donuts is gross.

I just think that the posts like "omgz I'm 5 days late and none of my tests are positive. Do you think I'm pregnant? I'm probably pregnant, right? My doc needs to give me a blood test ASAP" are so annoying and I'd rather point people in the direction of TCOYF than trying to explain it on here.

Shipleys all the way (if we are talking chain donuts)
B/w 1/8: betas 17,345, progesterone 25.6
BFP 2: 7/7/2014 Beta 7/8: 115, Beta 7/12: 638, Beta 7/16: 3793, Beta 7/21: 21,625
I think it's great to refer them to TCOYF so they understand that if they aren't getting AF at exactly 28 days, then it doesn't mean they're Totes Prego. Now after months of TTC with no success or wonky cycles, then I would recommend it over and over again.
Oh and KK are awesome! Give me a bavarian creme filled with chocolate icing anytime. But DD, no. Gross.

I agree that pushing charting for a newb is not usually the right approach unless she has been TTC for a while with no luck. TCOYF is a resource every woman should read regardless of TTC or not.
Also, I have never tried KK or DD, Tim Hortons for life! (For cheap coffee) Or SB, my personal fave.

I'm becoming a goddamn bleeding heart in my old age.
"I DO NOT love that you think so many things revolve around you. I know you're bitter. I get it. But I'm over your feelings." The best person on the internet ever!
I agree, @seahorse01. I've worked with SO many kids over th eyears through a local mission who did not own warm clothing (since it's not THAT common here), had holey shoes/clothes, and/or had parents who didn't give a rip and would never dream of driving their kid to school. There are far too many kids who have to walk to school or wait on a bus. I get that it sounds silly to some, but for those not prepared for cold weather, it's not a joke.
On the same subject. I get SO freaking irritated when people make fun of all of us Texans when we had our ice storm several weeks ago. Dude, it was ICE... not snow, not gritty sleet, but solid, slippery ice. Yes, I know that up north/northeast this may be a common thing and I know that you can salt the roads to help. Some roads WERE salted/sanded, but seeing as how we get like maybe 1 ice storm a year (if that), we do not have the equipment on hand to do this to the extent necessary to get around somewhat normally. They don't touch side streets (and some of what I would consider main roads) most of the time. So quit calling us weenies because some people choose to stay inside vs taking the risk of driving around on incredibly icy roads with 2 wheel drive cars. (FTR, we drove around the entire time and hardly slipped at all, but we have 4 wheel drive and know how to handle the ice). At work, even the transplants from upstate NY and Colorado were complaining about how bad the roads were! So please STOP making fun of us or else I fully reserve the right to call you pansies when complain about a 90 degree day and you don't even have humidity!
