Cycle/month: 9 -- 1AL
CD: 5
What are you doing to GKU? SMEP and OPKs. EOD starts Tuesday on CD 7. Excitedly waiting to get started.
RRCS: I am feeling...I don't know...but I am on the verge of buying a fuzzy squishy bunny to cuddle. I bought a fish last month. I'm worried if this doesn't happen for us soonish I'm going to end up with a small petting zoo in my home.
GTKY: What's one thing you are great at? I think I'm more of a "Jack of all trades, master of none" kind of person. I do a lot of things well...but don't know that I'd say I'm great at any of them.

Cycle/month: 21/19
CD: 7
What are you doing to GKU? Natural cycles while starting DE process
RRCS: Looking ahead, O should hit while we're staying with family for Thanksgiving. Not a situation at all conducive to hitting it this month. On the one hand, a natural cycle is unlikely to work, but on the other hand I still hate feeling like we're not trying.
GTKY: What's one thing you're great at? I've been told I'm a great cook. I enjoy cooking, and often improvise in the kitchen based on my mood.

Cycle/month: 1/1
CD: 5
What are you doing to GKU? Temping and OPKs
RRCS: None yet. I'm expecting to O around CD 21 like the previous 3 cycles, but we're starting EOD sex on CD 10 just in case.
GTKY: What's one thing you are great at?
Organizing things. That and professional tv watching are my biggest strengths 😂

sammysam, I want to tell you to resist getting all the cuddly animals, but at the same time I went and bought chicks while I was going through infertility testing in February, so who am I to talk?

bonzo Glad I'm not alone:) When my SO and I first met I had a bunny who used to bite him every time he came over...but he still said I could get one if I really wanted one. I'm trying to hold out to see how TTC goes first.

Cycle/month: 2/2
CD: 6
What are you doing to GKU? Sexing, yay! And temping. DH is doing his part this month by just installing a mirrored wall in the bedroom, woot! We're just holding onto hope that family and visitors will think, oh that wall is totally there to make the room seem bigger....
RRCS: I'd like to rave about this beautiful happy golden time of the cycle, for me about CD3-CD12, where nothing is happening and I can just relax and pretend we're not TTC and focus on other things in life and love. Trying to bank some peace and inner harmony from this week to help tide me through FW and the TTW!
GTKY: What's one thing you are great at? Teaching. It's hard not to qualify that but I won't! I remember brainstorming a big list of "things I'm good at" as a kid because American Girl magazine recommended it...it was so easy to write a couple pages of ideas. Sad that we as women especially become so self critical.

sammysam Lol I think wanting/getting pets to pour love and care onto is a totally normal part of TTC! What kind of fish? bonzo You are my favorite kind of cook! I aspire to be like you. I definitely improvise in the kitchen when the mood strikes, but then I strike out at least half the time still. Getting there! We'll also be with family during some key fertile days, sharing a cabin with my parents and sibs. We are doing to DTD if it requires marching out in the snow and getting it on in parkas. Sending you vibes of creativity and determination, good luck!!  goldenbird Woohoo so excited you are now TTC!!

sunshiney It's a betta fish (sometimes called siamese fighting fish). Super smart and trainable so he's actually pretty cool.

sunshiney, it takes lots of practice to get there with cooking, but I'm sure you'll get there too! And good luck hitting your FW while sharing s cabin! goldenbird, I need to get better at organizing. I can sort things and make a room look great for a day. But keeping things organized, especially in my office, is a huge challenge for me.

Cycle/month: 7
CD: 2
What are you doing to GKU? Temping, preseed, opks
RRCS: I'm depressed about ttc.
Tw child mentioned
I wanted to nurse my kid as long as she wanted and my doc says based on my prolactin levels I would need to wean to get pregnant. My kid is almost 2 and a half and she has the language to beg and plead and bargain with me for boob time. It makes me feel like a selfish piece of shit for putting my desire for another kid before her. But I am an old.
I can't really interact frequently with my bmb Facebook page because there are so many pregnant and newborns. I'm happy for them, but I just have to scroll past 75% of the posts. My personal fb feed is just a wall of pregnancy posts as well. I know it's only been 7 months, but we ntnp for about 6 months before that so it feels like a long ass time.
