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!

Month/Cycle: 7?
Timing: -5, -1
CD/DPO: CD27 DPO13
Symptoms: sore breasts, moody, bloat
RRCS: Took a test yesterday because I thought *maybe* if I was pregnant it would be a really nice fathers day gift. Newp. Shouldn't have done it, it was glaringly negative. So I'm pretty much just waiting for AF to show.

Month/Cycle: 14/8
CD/DPO: 43/5
Symptoms: super tired, gassy, vivid dreams, and cramps woke me up the other morning. Lots of creamy cm. Nothing in my boobs which is my usual pregnancy signal.
RRCS: well... I drank almost an entire bottle of wine last night. I have been limiting myself to one drink if any during the TWW, but yeah, yesterday I let my hair down. I enjoyed it immensely, had a good cry, and it is what it is. I think maybe I was acting out like well if this isn't the month at least I can blame something. I know it's irrational.

Month/Cycle: 7/1AL
Timing: n/a
CD/DPO: 5
Symptoms: I think I've finished bleeding from the CP today.
RRCS: Feeling lost and confused on what to do or think. Anxious for my appt Thursday to talk about what's been going on. I don't know if I'm more afraid of finding out something is wrong or that nothing is wrong and I'm just "unlucky". If anyone has suggestions on anything I should bring up or ask about, I'm trying to make a list.

Hugs pambee, my only suggestion is keep a list of things that pop into your head that you might want to ask, and then choose from that list while you're there. Also, it's ok to tell your doctor how you're doing emotionally, that's part of caring for you as a whole person.

Month/Cycle: 18 Timing: none yet, WTO CD/DPO: CD15 Symptoms: None RRCS: Should be O day any time now. I'm anxious. If it's today, we timed things well. I turn 38 this week, that would make for a good birthday present! remi So sorry for the BFN Tlex sometimes all you need is a big glass of wine and a good cry. pambee I don't have any suggestions on what to ask, but I hope everything at the appointment goes well. Keep us posted!!

Guys I think I'm captain of the TWW crazy train right now. Is anyone else on board at the moment? I have heart burn, I'm burping, lots of creamy cm, gassy to an embarrassing degree, my resting HR is up, and I'm so hungry and tired. I need to take a hearty sit, as I'm only 5 DPO.

Month/cycle: 7/6
Timing: none, benched d/t cysts
Cd: 11 I think? I'm taking a break from tracking
RRCS: I was feeling so down after I found out we were benched.I took last week and the weekend easy, drank a bunch of wine and spent a lot of time relaxing in my pool. I'm finally feeling somewhat back to normal and ready to focus on other things while we wait for my cysts to clear. I've started working out again and planning our July 4th BBQ. I'm hoping this next month goes by quickly!

Month/Cycle:A lot. 3/3 following almost a year of being benched which followed over a year of trying. 1/1 post CP
Timing: N/A
CD/DPO: 13/ n/a
Symptoms: None. Just tired.
RRCS: I had an RE check-in this morning along with some labs. Previously we thought I would have to wait another month to start a clomid cycle, but that is not the case. We can actually start clomid tomorrow or Wednesday! Yay! The only good thing about have crappy hormone levels and ovulating CD 20+ = I'm not stuck with doing clomid in the first 5 days of my cycle? So we will see how this goes. I'm already nervous/excited for the ultrasound next week. I want to see some good follicles!

Month/Cycle: 23/23
Timing: -2, O. I think.
CD/DPO: 36/6
Symptoms: my boobs hurt which is my normal post O situation but not this long.
RRCS: I just want this stupid long cycle to be over with. I will be switching to clomid next cycle to see if that changes anything. Not excited about extra side effects, but I need to use my expensive trigger and my RE wanted to try. We’ll see how it goes and then I will decide if I’m going to continue the meds or just go back to trying on our own.

Also - add me to the drank a bunch of wine this weekend club. DH and I were away and i feel like we have had a lot of wine this week. Time for me to switch back to ice cream at night instead of wine I'm sorry for the BFN remi. pambee +1 to the keeping a list of questions. I have been jotting down and e-mailing myself random things I want to ask at my next appointment. Also, I took notes during my RE check-in today because I didn't trust myself to remember everything he said.

sunny75 being benched sucks, sounds like you're handling it just right. Take time to be bummed and take time to take care of yourself - bravo. Hang in there. @obscurereference remi so glad to have company on the train! Every month I swear I won't board it and then I'm first in line. Sigh. But it sure is a nicer ride with company! sharebear I'm so glad you don't have to wait to cycle again! Fx this is the one. 🤞🏻

Month/Cycle: 14? I can't recall. Timing: either -2, O or -1, +1 CD/DPO: cd 26, either 11 or 12dpo Symptoms: none RRCS: So on cd 18 I had drank a ton the night before and that's the high temp that is effecting my chart. When I discard that temp I o'd cd 14 and when I don't the crosshairs move to cd15. If I were just going with my cramps, I'd guess cd15 was O. I am adding my charts here for those thst like to scrutinize charts. Blazing positive opk on cd14 and 15. Oh and I'm on progesterone supplements and will take them for another 2 days before I stop to bring on AF (or not if I get a bfp). Eta, and all the open circles are from me taking my temp at the same time, but entering it in ff at different times amd not bothering to input the time I actually took the temp.

Yay sharebear I'm glad you get to take Clomid right away! remi, I'm kind of embarrassed because I have been so so lazy the last few months, right now I just started doing a walk everyday and I'm going to try to fit in a quick workout video in if I can. I have an old Jillian Michaels workout that is my go to. What are you doing?

pambee Maybe ask about repeat loss testing, possible sperm issues, low progesterone. I "only" had 2 CPs this year and my ob's office sent me for a huge panel of bloodwork.

radiantfate 🤞 O happens soon! Birthday would be great timing sharebear that's great that you can start this month! 🤞 for a good report next week! And good idea about taking notes at my appt, H won't be able to come with me so I'll have to remember everything on my own. Yogurt thank you for the suggestions, I'm glad your OB was on top of it and wish I had pushed for it earlier (she told me it was an option after my 1st, just not recommended yet). And fx that you get a bfp before you have to stop the supplements!! 🤞

I have an old Jillian Michaels workout that is my go to. What are you doing? Don't be embarrassed at all! It's awesome to start somewhere like that! And I signed myself up for a beach body thing that started with 21 days fix that was a nutrition program along with workouts everyday for 3 weeks. Now I'm doing one that PiYo (pilates and yoga cross) and another program meshed together. Last week sucked because we were on vacation that was just a small cottage with no wifi. So I did a lot of walking those days.

Yogurt the second chart looks way more like the chart of someone on progesterone to my inexpert eyes so I pick that one. 🤗
