Anyone else in the tww and symptom spotting? I'm only 4 dpo and the crazy is starting to take over. Why can't I just be breezy about ttc?

Finally got af on Day 50. I hope this cycle is closer to normal. Waiting to O. That's all. wow. I think any cycle longer than 35 days is torture. At 45 days, I call the OB and beg for them to trigger a period. I have no chill waiting for periods. You are way more patient than me.

Heyo! 10 dpo over here and feeling both crazy and like whatever. My BBT has been stuck, I’ve gotten the same temp for 3 days so I can’t even obsess about that! After getting up today I finally got it to register another number. My temp was super low for having been awake and walking around so who knows.

charliefox, I'm the same - one minute I'm crazy and one minute I'm all (it is what it is). I am getting my progesterone checked on saturday (day 21) so at least after that I'll know if I even ovulated and have a chance!

I have like 0 chance of being pregnant this month and I'm still symptom spotting. I hope the rest of your TWW goes by quickly and you don't go too crazy 😜

Ah we may not be out this cycle! We were able to DTD late last night when DH got home. I had my clomid monitoring US this morning and there are two large follicles on each side. The RE said that it looks like one is in the process of releasing an egg (makes sense, I got a positive OPK last night), and that another on the other side looks like it is going to soon. So he changed his mind and said DTD every day instead of EOD and see if we are successful!
He also said, after looking at my US, "this is how people end up with twins" which managed to sufficiently freak out DH until he was calmed down with the whole "it is still only a 10% chance" spiel. So insert crying laughter emoji at DH's reaction face.
I'm going on a long weekend trip in 2 weeks, so I scheduled betas for the morning of. I told the RE that I need to know definitively in 2 weeks if I'm KU or not so I can definitively know if I can have a glass of wine and sushi with my friends.
ETA: changed wording of first sentence

Yesterday I was starting to feel normal again, and like things were looking up emotionally, and then my cousin (who I referenced the other day) texted a picture of her u/s and said she had a "secret" and I lost it. It was a mixture of it being her, her due date is a week ahead of what mine would have been, and seeing the baby on the u/s (since we haven't gotten to see a heartbeat at any this year) but I instantly crumbled. So I'm glad she told me over text, I guess. I had several alcohols last night and did my best to ignore it but I think I'm going to have to avoid her for a while. Of course I felt like a jerk when I didn't respond much (I said congrats and asked a few things) but I couldn't keep the conversation going.
Sorry just needed to vent a little bit.

pambee I'm sorry that's rough. Does she know your history? I feel like the more anxious I get about this stuff, the more I manage to see lots of pregnancy announcements. All the hugs, cupcakes, alcohols, etc.

All the hugs, cupcakes, alcohols, etc. I told her back in December that we were trying, but I don't think she knows about any of the losses unless it went through the grapevine. Thanks, I agree. After my first loss this year I swear EVERYONE on my Facebook feed started announcing pregnancies and I had to do a lot of "unfollowing" for a while.

pambee,Oh wow so that's the cousin you mentioned earlier? That's rough even if you were expecting it. You and I can join the crappy club of trying to be happy for close family members who are pregnant. For some reason the way she announced it to you seems kind of insensitive. I mean if you told her in December she at least know you've been trying for a while now even if she doesn't know about the losses.

pambee, ugh I'm sorry. If I see pregnancy stuff on facebook, I unfollow immediately. I see pregnancy stuff everywhere too. Like every tv show, commercial, facebook, it's just so much and so hard. I haven't spoken to my friend who I had the playdate with, that is due a few days before I would have been. I plan to distance myself. Seeing that reminder of what I lost is just too painful right now.

Even though I was "expecting" it it hit me harder than I thought it would. She had messaged me earlier this week and said something about getting together, but then never actually tried to make plans, so I think she wanted to meet up and tell us but then didn't and did this. I don't know. We have another cousin getting married in a few weeks and I assume everyone will know by then OR she'll announce then so I'm glad I know ahead of time, at least.

((Hugs)) On top of it all every ad on facebook or Google or anything is something pregnancy related since I've researched and downloaded apps so much this year regarding it/loss. Can't escape it.

I need to continue to do everything I can to shift the focus of my life away from ttc. Like it will be a thing I do as long as it takes, or as long as I can and my husband is willing, but I can't have it be the only thing on my mind. Spending all this emotional energy is exhausting and I feel so sad most of the time. I don't know how to stop letting ttc rule my brain and dictate my mood, but I am going to keep trying to focus on the things I can control and just know I did my best with the baby stuff. It's just this pit inside me that makes me feel like shit. Tw child mentioned I will say focusing on my daughter has really helped. We had a great week amd I'm so happy I have her.

Yogurt, it's so hard, but I do think if you make an effort to distract yourself you'll find at least a little relief.

Fw is finally starting. I think. It's been a little hard to pinpoint because I've been Oing between cd 15 and 21. It's cd 11, so I figure start EOD now that way if it's on the early end I get more than a -2/O or -1 only.
I do worry about focusing too much in the beginning of the week and then he's over it when it might really matter. I've hard too much time to thibk about this, lol.
Anyway, I'm glad to get this show on the road.

Well I hope you get some good timing in this week!
