Cycle/month: 2nd PP cycle
CD: 2
What are you doing to GKU?: nothing; I'm currently charting to avoid (and to get some data) until we start TTC again next year
RRCS: so, I didn't ovulate last cycle, which is exactly what happened with my first PP cycle after I had my DS in 2015. Kinda interesting I guess. My DD is 10 months old today and I'm starting to notice twinges of baby fever starting but my brain knows that I am so not ready to deal with 2u2 again lol, so for now we're sticking with the plan and waiting.
GTKY: what would you say is your best personality trait and why? I am really good at planning and prioritizing, which makes me a very efficient multitasker. It's been coming in really handy lately as I'm juggling two very young kids with MH and me both working long hours!

Hello Ladies  I'm mainly active on the TTCAL post, but I want to try to expand to meet more people. Cycle/month:
1/4 AL (AF finally showed) CD:
8 What are you doing to GKU?
Temping for now, but I plan on checking CM also. I'm not sure I'll use opks just yet. RRCS:
I just have a lot of mixed feelings now that I'm finally able to TTC again. I'm kind of worried my body is going to be an asshole about ovulating like it was before.. only time will tell.
GTKY: what would you say is your best personality trait and why? I'm compassionate and empathetic. I love blessing the people around me as it also brings me joy Unfortunately this means I occasionally get taken advantage of, but oh well.. Live and learn |

Cycle/month: 1/1
CD: 23
What are you doing to GKU? Nothing special, just sex every other day and OPKs. I was probably a little too obsessed last time with charting every little thing and taking my temperature. For now I'm taking a more laid back approach.
RRCS: Since my PP cycles started back last October I've ovulated (or at least had positive OPKs) anywhere between CD 16 and CD 27. Once upon a time I was very regular, I'm kinda missing that as I wait.
GTKY: what would you say is your best personality trait and why?
Determination. When I set my mind to something it is going to happen!

Cycle/month: 1 AL (af finally showed)
CD: 5
What are you doing to GKU? Temping and I will order more OPKs soon, sex
RRCS: How am I supposed to count the cycle/month I'm on? We started ttc Nov 16, I got a +HPT in June, and my loss was Aug 2nd. I don't count june/July do I?
I'm also worried af is going to be weird AL. Before it was 5 days long. I'm on day 5 and it's still kind of heavy. Hopefully it won't stay like this.
GTKY: what would you say is your best personality trait and why?
Um, i guess that I'm compassionate.

I'm sorry you're dealing with this and I hope your body gets back to normal soon. |

Cycle/month: 14/14
CD: 1
What are you doing to GKU? Currently nada
RRCS: I'm at a loss as to whether we should skip this cycle. I never thought I'd willingly pause TTC but we have a big trip in Nov and I would HATE to feel like crap on it (of course, I assume this cycle won't work either so what does it matter?). FWIW, I had HG with DS so the likelihood of being nauseous, if I were pregnant, is very high.
GTKY: what would you say is your best personality trait and why? Um...I am also a big planner and am generally pretty organized.

notmoose, sorry for your loss. I would count the cycles & months you were/are TTC, but I suppose you could just count cycles TTC and then count whatever months make you feel comfortable. As in, if you wanted to include the months after your bfp or while you were waiting for AF to return as to account for that time then go right ahead. ((hugs)) notelsie, so sorry for your loss.

Cycle/month: 4/4
CD: 8
What are you doing to GKU? Prenatals, supplements, OPKs, temping
RRCS: I feel guilty because I know so many couples have been trying longer but I don't know how long I can do this for. I am getting more depressed every time CD1 rolls around and when I am depressed, I eat.
GTKY: what would you say is your best personality trait and why? I am a planner and an organizer but some people may doubt that if you saw my house sometimes 😂

HI! I guess I go here now I'm a May 15 mom, currently TFAS. Cycle/month: 1/1 CD: 7 What are you doing to GKU? just sex RRCS: With my DD, TTC was so carefree and we got KU right away but for some reason, this time around, I'm feeling a lot of anxiety and stress over it. I don't know why. I think it's just because this time feels so much more intentional, we planned it out more. We will see how it goes. I'm hoping my anxiousness is just a normal feeling.... GTKY: what would you say is your best personality trait and why? I'm really caring, which has come back to bite me in the ass sometimes, but I just am who I am |

Thank you. I think part of my issue trying to decide what to put, is we are coming up on a year since we started ttc, so not including those months bugged me for some reason. It shouldn't, but emotions are weird. |

MauLoaM0M I totally get it. I was so upset about not conceiving after just 2 months. It's so hard and frustrating whether it's a few months or a year. Hugs

Hello! I'm starting to TTC but just kind of waiting for my period. I have a 20 month old DD. I hang out on Jan 16 & Breastfeeding mostly.
Cycle/month: 0
CD: Unknown
What are you doing to GKU? I'm waiting for my period. I stopped the mini-pill 6-8 weeks ago (too bad i can't remember when exactly...). I haven't had a period in over two years (pregnancy, BF & mini-pill)
RRCS:
GTKY: what would you say is your best personality trait and why? I'm friendly/ outgoing.

Cycle/month: 5

What are you doing to GKU? Sex, opks, bbt, preseed
RRCS: I hate this whole process
GTKY: what would you say is your best personality trait?
I have no idea. My husband said it's a toss up between my compassion and my kindness, which is nice. I guess I'd say...that I try to be respectful and inclusive to all.

Cycle/month: 1/1
CD: 10
What are you doing to GKU? Charting symptoms, sex as much as possible
RRCS: what does this mean? Lol. This is my first cycle since I got my IUD out 2 weeks ago and I'm feeling pretty optimistic. I decided against temping since I did it with my two losses and it made me crazy! MH seems really into it this time. We'll see how that lasts if it takes us longer to conceive.
GTKY: what would you say is your best personality trait and why?
My compassion and ability to use humor to put people at ease.
