My period should be starting Wednesday, if not sooner. There's 0% of it not coming thanks to the bouts of stomach flu that hit us this month.
On a positive note, I started planning for A's first birthday! And we'll go to the RE this summer. At some point I should call and get a consult appointment for my spring break bc I'm assuming they'll want to do all the workup testing again.

Still waiting to O. Should be soon. OPKs are starting to get darker. I’m really nervous this month, as I know there’s usually a higher rate of pregnancy after an HSG. If not, we meet with our fertility dr Jan 26. So just feeling a little in limbo until then. Also working on my sons 4th birthday party! I can’t believe he’s going to be 4 in less than a month! We’re just having a small(ish) family party, dinosaur themed (as my son is obsessed with dinos). grover I hope your next cycle is easier, with no sickness. And yay for party planning! Do you have a specific theme?

We decided to do a February or an April transfer, just didn’t concretely decide which month yet. I’m breaking out all of a sudden, so I guess AF is around the corner.
I’ll be party planning soon too! H turns 5 on March 1, and this will be our first party at home. I can’t believe he’s about to be 5 and we started this whole thing with IF 6 years ago this month, well the RE part of it anyway.

librariangirl, we're thinking unicorns and rainbows. Otherwise fish/under the sea, but I may save that for the following year.

Still here, still waiting to cycle in the spring. I have to lose weight and I've been really terrible about that for the last several weeks, so need to buckle down. Just feeling rather ugh. There is no question in my mind that we both want a second, but it seems scary to think about going back to the baby days, and financially it will be tough (both paying for the IVF, and then if we're successful having two in daycare). And I'm worried it won't work, either the first time or at all, which is a real possibility with DH's issues and my very low AMH ... Sorry. Just feeling stressed out I guess.
J turns 3 this month! We already did our family get together. Probably won't do an actual kid's party, but may try to do a special outing with him and one or two of his friends.

Good luck with your weight loss baymare! I’m sorry you’re stressed, but those are all fears I know I had going into treatments for #2. Definitely easier said than done, but I hope you find a way to ease the stress.

Sorry I missed you all last week. We were traveling for the holidays without much internet access and then when we returned last week DS got super sick with a double ear infection and I followed quickly with the same (plus a sinus infection and pink eye in both eyes). It's been a rough week! I got my neg hpts on Christmas Eve and Christmas. We didn't try super hard thanks to the same stomach flu you mentioned, grover, but it was still disappointing. I am expecting to O tomorrow or the next day, and I am hoping the new year brings us some new luck. I am also meeting with a potential OBGYN this week to discuss my IF/loss history and how she could help me to survive a potential pregnancy without becoming a giant permastress ball, at the advice of my therapist. Hopefully I like her because there aren't a whole lot of choices in my little town.
