  I still temp even though I'm doing medicated cycles. It gives me a better idea of when the b*tch will eventually show.

  I am a special snowflake, because I done them all.
  
  We do nothing now though.

  I did temping plus OPKs.
  Then medicated TI, IUI, and IVF (no temping or OPKs).

   TTC since May 2011, 1 year trying, and then 3 TI, 2 IUI = BFN

  24R, 18M, 15F w/ICSI; 5dt of 2 early blasts, no frosties = BFN

  I forgot CM!
  We used to do Temping & OPK's, now that I O pretty much the same time I started using just OPK's. After last night we decided to take a break from the whole method using business and just have sex whenever and wherever.
  So right now nothing.

  I am still technically TTA (well except this month which has become NTNP), but I have just been charting CM and symptoms. I tried OPKs at the beginning of this cycle, but I got like 3-4 days of positives then gave up, as I've been told by a few ladies, my PCOS may be causing false positives...So no more OPKs for me, and temping is out of the question right now.

  @sewilson33 The original plan was to wait until next year to TTC#2, but for whatever reason DH decided he didn't feel like TTA this month. I doubt we had good timing though, my body is so screwed up this cycle..I'll be POAS like a crazy person anyway though. Lol

  Medicated (few and far between, unfortunately) and temping.

  Currently just checking CM and OPKs I hate temping. It never worked for me.
  
  ETA: I'm not sure if I will O on my own or not now, so when we move from NNT to TTC I might temp for a cycle

  I temped religiously, and use OPKs a handful of cycles. And tried to at least be somewhat aware of my CM. 

  
  

  Even when we're TTA I'll temp; my cycles are just too uncertain, and I really like knowing approximately when to expect AF.
