Re: TTC Check In
How many months/cycles have you been TTC? 13 months/13cycles
Where are you in your cycle? CD 14
Any plans for testing? Got my first positive OPK this morning for this cycle.
Have you done anything different this cycle or plan to? We did a semen count test and all came back good, I am using preseed, temping vaginally and orally (using diff thermometers obviously).
Any goods or bads in life or TTC? I AM SICK! >:P I caught some terrible cold and have been sick since Xmas Eve.
Good - we donated 3 contractor bags of clothes to the Salvation Army yesterday and all of it was REALLY nice stuff.
Thoughts, questions, concerns? I'm hoping I'm not about to get a yeast infection... Usually when my immune system crashes I get one and I am praying and crossing everything that it doesn't happen because I am about to O!
QOTD: Do you have any New Years plans? At this very moment, no. I want to go out to dinner and a movie or hang at a friends but DH is a party pooper right now and won't make any plans.

Best thing to do that might help prevent a yeast infection - TAKE A PROBIOTIC/Acidofilus (or however you spell it)....yogurt is natural probiotic, but you can buy it in the vitamin section of the pharmacy - and keep it in the fridge. A friend of mine recommended this to me once when I was sick and on antibiotics because the antibiotics kill everything including the good bacteria (which is why people get yeast infections from being sick), while the probiotics will help replenish the good bacteria that gets killed off.

My Ovulation Chart

5 cycles
Where are you in your cycle?
CD38
Any plans for testing?
I'll test again on Monday to see if I get a positive (already tested a couple times earlier in the week - obvs BFN)
Have you done anything different this cycle or plan to?
I thought I was going to get AF last week / early this week so I started temping so I could make sure to get a temp in on CD1. And now, here I sit at CD38. I just want something to happen at this point.
Any goods or bads in life or TTC?
See above. Why the whackadoodle cycle, body?! Also, for the last couple days I've been waking up a couple hours before temping time and going back to sleep, so I'm sure my temps are not as accurate as they could be.
Thoughts, questions, concerns?
- the BBT I bought was from CVS, and it doesn't seem to be storing my last temperature. Would you buy a new one?
- I normally take my temperature at a certain time, but due to work on Sunday I have to get up waaaay before that. It's just that one day that's going to be off. Should I not sweat it since I haven't been temping this whole cycle anyway, or wake myself up every morning at 5 AM?
QOTD: Do you have any New Years plans?
Not that I know of. I'm just happy I'm not working and therefore have an entire day off.

Also, what are your cycles normal length? Is 38 very late for you? It's possible your body is still trying to regulate itself.
Good luck!!!!

How many months/cycles have you been TTC? Cycle 5
Where are you in your cycle? CD18??
Any plans for testing? I got a positive OPK on a strip AND the digital yesterday! I was so excited! lol. I've never gotten a smiley before. :-P
Have you done anything different this cycle or plan to? Newp.
Any goods or bads in life or TTC? So I went bounding in to H last night with my fucking smiley face OPK whilst he was getting ready for work. I was like "pppplllleeeaaassseee can we do the sex real quick before you have to go to work?" and it turned out to be an epic fail. Epic. Fail. I hope (hopehopehopeomg) this doesn't ruin all the good we've done the past couple of months preformance-wise. :sigh: damn it, me... I just **HAD** to push it. (hangs head in shame)
Thoughts, questions, concerns? Nope.
QOTD: Do you have any New Years plans? H is actually off this year (!!!!) so we'll be hanging out together probably at home, lol.
B/w 1/8: betas 17,345, progesterone 25.6
How many months/cycles have you been TTC? 3/3
Where are you in your cycle? CD 26 and FF says 4DPO.
Any plans for testing? FINALLY got a positive OPK this cycle on days 20-21. Can't hold out until mid January like FF suggests so I'm going to test next Wednesday.
Have you done anything different this cycle or plan to? Just OPKs and BBT.
Any goods or bads in life or TTC? Found out that BIL and wife are expecting their second. I swear that woman gets pregnant so easily, it's not fair. Also this TWW is hard because of above mentioned situation.
Thoughts, questions, concerns? Does green tea help with CM? I feel like I don't have enough to actually be able to decipher so I have to rely on other methods.
QOTD: Do you have any New Years plans? Going to DH's parents house and his extended family will be there too.

How many months/cycles have you been TTC? 4/3
Where are you in your cycle? In the 2WW. CD26. I'm not crazy about our timing, though, as DH was called away unexpectedly for a last minute business trip right in the fertile window. We have a chance this cycle, but I think it's pretty small.
Any plans for testing? Will only test if I make it to CD35 or so.
Have you done anything different this cycle or plan to? Nope.
Any goods or bads in life or TTC? Nothing of particular interest.
Thoughts, questions, concerns? Just wishing everyone the best going into the new year.
QOTD: Do you have any New Years plans? We host a party every year. This will be our 6th one. We usually get about 50 people at the peak of the party and have 5-8 or so stay the night and we all go out for a ginormous breakfast the next morning.
my read shelf:
Where are you in your cycle? CD1-on top of an ear infection and upper respiratory infection, today is just fantastic!
Any plans for testing? Nope
Have you done anything different this cycle or plan to? No
Any goods or bads in life or TTC?
Thoughts, questions, concerns?
QOTD: Do you have any New Years plans? We always have a party. Seems that this year will be a bit calmer than normal, which I'm totally fine with.
Where are you in your cycle? CD14, gearing up to O
Any plans for testing? Starting OPKs this cycle and monthly HCG draw in a few weeks
Have you done anything different this cycle or plan to? No
Any goods or bads in life or TTC? Everything is going pretty well. I just applied for two possible positions, both would be a promotion so that is fun.
Thoughts, questions, concerns? I'm just happy to be close to putting the loss and molar behind us. TTA when you don't want to be is very difficult.
QOTD: Do you have any New Years plans? We're having family over. Drinks, snacks and music. Very fun for me.
