Busy week coming up so I'll start this now.
This is a combined TTC thread for EVERYONE currently TTC. Whether you're a first timer, a many timer, or an old timer come on in and pass the time as we struggle through WTO and the dreaded TWW.
As this is a combined thread there will be talk of LC, losses, and IF struggles. If any of these are hard for you please just let us know in your first post and I'm sure the lovely ladies on here will be happy to add TWs to accommodate.
Feel free to add a little intro to help us get to know you better;)
Please come join us!

Hi sammysam and all. No news yet. No AF. No signs of AF. It’s 11DPO. I think I’m not going to test tomorrow. Kind of scared about testing so I want to wait for some sign, either way, from my body. Of course now that I’m typing this, I’m all... do I feel crampy? Was I so crabby with the neighbor children today because of PMS? Lol. TTC is such a head trip.

Month/Cycle: 7?
Timing: NA
CD/DPO: CD13
Symptoms: having some watery CM for the past couple of days. Will probably start OPKs tonight.
RRCS: Stressed because H told me that this week he will be overnight tuesday-thursday for an install. So on top of this being my fertile window and then this weekend going up to the cottage I'm pretty anxious about our timing. I want to start doing EOD this week but it looks like we will get tonight and then won't be able to do anything until Thursday night. *sigh*

Month/Cycle: Will be starting Femara after AF in a few weeks!
Timing: n/a - plan for this cycle is dtd every day from -3 to probably +3 if i can at least approximate O. I haven't used my opks in a long time so i will probably try them but not rely on them
CD/DPO: CD22
Symptoms: n/a
RRCS: DH is going out of town for a few weeks toward the end of June which may or may not be my fertile time. Fx its not.

Month/Cycle: not sure. We’ve been at this for about a year and half. DD is almost 6, finishing Kindergarten in just a couple weeks. *sob*
Timing: Good month for us. -5, -2, O.
CD/DPO: 24/12DPO
Symptoms: none
RRCS: just sitting here, overthinking everything and swearing to myself that I WILL NOT TEST tonight or tomorrow. Straight up waiting till Weds/14DPO, which should be the day AF arrives.
Of course I’ve got my hopes up. This was a wacky cycle with no treatment (follicle maturity was weird, so no injections, no IUI) and I would love it if we got this done “the old fashioned way” after so many months of monitoring and clomid and whatnot. I’m also worried that the unusual follicle development means this was never a viable egg and our good timing was for nothing.
I’m so glad the weekend was jam packed so I didn’t have time to worry!

Month/Cycle: 13/9
Timing: continuing EOD until positive OPK
CD: 20, waiting to O
Symptoms: n/a
RRCS: does anyone here have experience with cervical polyps and/or ovulation bleeding?
I'm guessing it's a polyp acting up (have had before) but after DTD this morning I'm bleeding enough that I'm having to change a liner every hour. I would say that's more than spotting right? The blood is bright red and watery. I did have a massive temp drop& watery CF this morning which has me hopeful for ovulation but nothing even close to a positive OPK yet this cycle.

TW: Loss
Things not going so well here. HCG barely rising, so it looks like I’m still living in TTGP. Going to take a break for a little while I wait this out and will report back on CD1 to check in. Thanks for the love and well wishes <3

Fingers crossed for you shakinros! Sometimes it's the wacky cycles that end up being the ones that work! And your timing looks good.

Tlex to me that sounds like more than spotting. I usually only consider it spotting if I can go without a tampon/liner and not have to worry about it.

Month/cycle: 6/6
Cd: 9 dpo
Symptoms: I thought maybe I felt some cramping yesterday? I was very moody yesterday which is a pretty strong PMS symptom.
RRCS: I'm just over here driving myself crazy symptom spotting and testing way to early. I know I'm going to be so crushed if this cycle doesn't work.
And also a lot more people know about us taking fertility treatments this time around so I've been getting "are you pregnant yet" questions almost daily. Which is nice that people are thinking about us but now I just feel like I'm going to let more than just me down if I'm not pregnant.

Month/Cycle: 23/23
Timing:
CD/DPO: 22
Symptoms:
RRCS: I am also having a wacky cycle. I took femara like I always do and my OPKs started to get dark but my sono showed no big follicle. Then I got what I would have called a positive opk but the second sono showed no follicle growth. So I kept doing OPKs and now they are getting darker again so maybe I’ll o this time. I go for a progesterone check tomorrow I guess to make sure they didn’t miss o. I think I will do one more medicated cycle because I have a trigger shot sitting in my fridge, and then take a break from the meds and we will try on our own again. I just can’t do the appointments anymore for now.

Thanks for saying this, it prompted me to call my OBGYN and they want to see me this week. I was trying to tell myself it was a polyp again but the nurse I spoke with said well not likely because we just did a pelvic exam ten days ago we'd have seen one, best to come in. Hopefully it's nothing but my cranky cervix being cranky!

Month/Cycle: 22/19 5AL
Timing: n/a
CD/DPO: cd2
Symptoms: nada
RRCS: Well, IUI #3 was a dud. We're moving forward with IUI #4 but have a followup scheduled with our RE on the 19th to discuss options. H and I are both on board to move to IVF. Ideally we're looking at Sept but no clue what all it will entail and what my RE's schedule is like. We're both comfortable with that decision, although we think we'd get pregnant eventually on our own we also don't want to wait forever, we'd like to finish building our family and move on from this stage (and stress).
DS and I are heading to visit my family this weekend and now that we're possibly doing IVF I think I finally have to tell them about our IF struggles. My mom is going to be crushed that I've kept it from her, she dealt with secondary IF for years before adopting me. Now this weekend seems really stressful, blarg.
