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:
Timing:
CD/DPO:
Symptoms:
RRCS:
GTKY: Favorite food? I don’t know? That’s all I got.

Month/Cycle: I think cycle 10?
Timing: Will be perfect.
CD/DPO: CD12
Symptoms: Nothing.
RRCS: I feel really confident with this new doctor. We have two beautiful follicles with these higher meds! I have no smaller ones, so he’s letting them grow for a few more days. Trigger shot Thursday morning, will ovulate Friday night. Plus, me and H are going away for the weekend, so no kids!!!
GTKY: I love carbs. Give me bread, pasta, and a bakery, I’m good to go. I really love amazing pastries.

Month/Cycle: month 8, cycle 1 AL- still waiting to stop bleeding
Timing: fingers crossed the best possible.
CD/DPO: ??? How do I calculate this post D&C???
Symptoms: I’m a bit depressed today. Idk what happened. Maybe just life? Our pastor reached out yesterday. And ILs are on camp “just try again” and announced SIL pregnancy a little bit ago and idk maybe just a lot of little things? I had a bad ass weekend but like 30 minutes after my kids went to their dads this morning I lost all motivation and now I’m in a slump.
RRCS: I hate TTC today. I’ve been bleeding for 20 days. OVER IT.
GTKY: Favorite food? I just like all food. Definitely a “foodie”.

Cycle: I think 8? We NTNP starting in January. Took a little bit of time off after our loss. Not sure about this month yet. Hopefully next we’ll be ON.
CD12. Im not testing this month but in my window.
I don’t know what RRCS means. Work is so stressful right now though and I’m anxious about everything. H wants to try again NOW but I’m not solid yet.
Mashed potatoes with tons of butter is my favorite food ever. But I love EVERYTHING. Especially carbs. And cheese. Anything not great for me. 😂

Month/Cycle: 15? I've lost count
Timing: n/a
CD/DPO: cd 1 either today or tomorrow
Symptoms: crampy
RRCS: I have my first appointment with the RE on Friday and have no idea what to expect. I'll be on cd 4 or 5. Dh isn't allowed to come thanks to stupid covid. And they told me they would call me and discuss my insurance, but I haven't heard from them since I set up the appointment a month ago.
GTKY: Favorite food? I don’t know? That’s all I got. My friend mentioned this new cheesecake place and it's all I can think about now but of course isn't open today.

Symptoms: starting today trying to get proper tempos every day and do OPKs

GTKY: Favorite food? Carbs, cheese, chocolate, raspberry anything

shellsncheese don’t worry. The appointment will probably be some questions about your history/what you have been doing to conceive. An ultrasound to see how things look. And a fuck ton of blood work. All this should be covered by insurance as it’s diagnostic. Once you start actual treatment, then it becomes an insurance question.

Anyone care to help me riddle these? OPKs are also positive when you have HCG in your system. hopefully since your test wasn't blazing, that means it's almost back down to 0!

were you taking any OPKs or HCG tests prior to today onyx? do you know how high your HCG got before you had your procedure? it's been 20 days since then right? if you haven't taken any tests and these are your first ones, i'd assume it's just leftover HCG in your system. that shit can take WEEKS to go away. if you've been taking tests and then these are your first positives then... pregnant! OR the third option is you still have a little HCG left in your system, you're also ovulating, and you had ovulation spotting. lol! bodies are weird man.

I was nervous because I didn’t want to test too soon. But since I’ve only been light brown spotting I thought I would check. I have no idea what my HCG was. I know at 6 weeks it was 83,000ish and I was 11 weeks when I had my D&C. And yes, 20 days!

onyx I think @zweber is right with her guess that you have residual HCG leftover from your pregnancy and you are about to ovulate. Good luck! As far as spotting, I often spot around ovulation, particularly after sex. Not sure how active you have been with your super scary scab situation, but it can often stir things up in your uterus and make weird spotting.

I’ve been spotting since the scab passed though. So it could be both I’m assuming. Fingers crossed my body is figuring it all out.

onyx my HCG only got to 13k and it took 4+ weeks for it to get back down to non pregnant levels. i'm assuming since you were at 80k it's gonna take a lot longer to get back down. but it doesn't look like your test is that dark, so maybe it won't be too much longer!

I have everything crossed. I think it was declining pre-D&C just because I lost symptoms.

Oh hi - I’m whatsit. Thought I’d come play. I’m a transfer of TB/TCF and usually hang out in the Royals and Blinds. At some points I’m more active than others. Just got my IUD removed and will be TTC #3. I have a 4.5yo son and 2.5yo daughter. Came to check it out here - see some familiar faces from my BMBs. (Hey onyx and alwayscheese) And....ya. Oh! My favourite food is Pizza
