TTC End of January

[ironcorgi]

Is it okay if I start this? I haven't started a thread here yet, but we haven't had a new thread in almost two weeks!

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.

Month/Cycle: 2/2

Timing: N/A

CD/DPO: CD 1

Symptoms: Cramping, irritable, and I just want my period to end!

RRCS: Rant: TW- a fellow teacher found out she was pregnant over the holiday break (her room is across the hall from mine) and while I'm happy for her, I'm pretty upset that last cycle was a bust for us. She knows I'm TTC so she texted earlier asking if I got my BFP and I had to tell her no. I told her we were TTC before she got her unexpected BFP, but I'm really wishing right now that I hadn't told her. After conceiving DD while on the pill, I honestly didn't think it would take more than one cycle to get pregnant. But it is taking more than one cycle so now I get to deal with somebody knowing we are trying and wanting real-time updates. I should have been smarter and kept the fact that we are TTC to myself.

Month/Cycle: 9/10 or 10/11. I haven't had my coffee yet. I think I put 10/11 last week but now think it's 9/10

Timing: Ovulated while DH was out of town for work so I think we got -3, -1 maybe

CD/DPO: CD 24

Symptoms: none

RRCS: I am calling this cycle a bust so I think we will do one more month unmedicated then go back on Femara. I just hate the side effects but want to give us our best chances. We may do IUI if it doesn't work after a month or two. DH has really low morphology (according to the SA they did in December) and hasn't been taking the vitamins that my doctor suggested so I have low expectations of it happening without help.

Month/Cycle: 24/24

Timing: None

CD/DPO: CD 16 - possibly 2DPO, haven't gotten crosshairs yet, my temp did dip this morning, but I've also been terrible about temping this cycle. Either way I'm past my usual O day.

Symptoms: None

RRCS: This month is a bust. We've been having some issues with my DS (10) that have been stressing us out, so the drive just hasn't been there to try and it looks like we missed the window.

Month/Cycle: A lot - essentially 3 years with some benching for non-TTC medical stuff here and there

Timing: N/A - IVF

CD: 15

RRCS: I did my mock transfer this morning and start stims on Friday. Exciting stuff! At this point doing the IVF route is way less stressful than charting and trying to identify fertile windows. But ask me again how stressful this is when my ovaries are the size of oranges next week lol.

Month/Cycle: 3/3

Timing: -5, -3, -1

CD/DPO: 29, 13dpo

Symptoms: I have had increased smell, inconsistent sore breasts and some cramping.

RRCS: I think my mind is playing tricks on me bc I was sure I was pregnant cycle one, and I wasn't. I am pretty regular, so I am trying not to waste money on a test until after the 30th, which would be my missed period. I just don't think this is our month.

Hi. I've been lurking for months though this is the first cycle post IUD removal. I've been looking at my past cycles and driving myself bonkers. I'm sure Dh is tired of hearing about everything. So here I am to play with y'all.

Month/Cycle: 1/1

Timing: I have no idea as I do not temp. Maybe O in a few days...

CD/DPO:CD12

Symptoms: Notta

RRCS: The whole house has had the stomach bug this past week. Dh, bless his heart, keeps asking if its MS. Ummm, no, not even close to that yet buddy. I might have given him a lecture on cycles and such.

[thinkchocolate05]

lildiamondeyes Welcome! My dh is like that too!! Sometimes I think he has no idea how human conception works beyond the sex part. It alternately cracks me up or annoys me.

Month/Cycle: 3/3

Timing: NA

CD/DPO: CD2

Symptoms: Just waiting on AF to end.

RRCS: I haven’t been temping but am going to start this cycle because last cycle I started spotting a week after my estimated O date and spotted for a week after until my period finally started. I just want to see if I am actually ovulating and when it’s occurring.

[sharebear]

sarahh ugggh to more Femara. Hopefully this cycle does the trick and you can be spared those side effects!
lildiamondeyes welcome!
magaroni ,are you a Game of Thrones fan? Re: waiting for O to happen with my crazy cycles, I just imagine a "brace yourself ovulation is coming" meme

ETA: i failed at linking an actual meme.

I think I'm going to send that meme to my SO on my next O day 🤣

Month/Cycle:
1/1


Timing:
n/a still


CD/DPO:
CD 47


Symptoms:
nothing


RRCS: Still WTO. My charting app insists I need to take a pregnancy test because it thinks I ovulated on CD 24 for no apparent reason. LOL nope, not wasting money on that when I'm 99 percent sure my body hasn't even done anything.

[lildiamondeyes]

CD1 today. Dh seems more disappointed than me.
