    How many months/cycles have you been TTC? 15 months/cycles
    Where are you in your cycle? Cd 4
    Any plans for testing?
    Have you done anything different or plan to? DH is getting his SA done tomorrow!!!!!! I'm so happy for this milestone.
    Anything good or bad in life or TTC? We are snowed in! But we have to drive in this blizzard to get a specimen cup from a hospital pharmacy soon. Which is scary.
    Thoughts, questions, concerns? Im keeping fx DH results come back normal. I'd really rather myself have an issue then him... It will affect him worse then it would me.

    QOTD: what is something you've always wanted to try or do but haven't yet? I reallllly want to scuba dive but I'm terrified of water so I never have. I'd also love to jump off a cliff in Hawaii into the water. But again I'm terrified of water... Haha

  • How many months/cycles have you been TTC? 8 months since beginning, 1st cycle TTCAL


    Where are you in your cycle? CD27, 7DPO


    Any plans for testing? I'll probably test with a cheapy on Wednesday at 13DPO. If negative, I'll retest on the 22nd (16DPO) which is my birthday if AF stays away.


    Have you done anything different or plan to? No, just happy to be back in the game.


    Anything good or bad in life or TTC? Good - Going for an early birthday dinner tonight with my friends where I plan to drink some expensive red wine and chat.  Really looking forward to it.

    Good and bad - we broke up with our real estate agent today and decided to try FSBO.  I'm releived and scared at once.


    Thoughts, questions, concerns? No

    QOTD: what is something you've always wanted to try or do but haven't yet? Laser hair removal.  I promised myself last year that I would do my underarms and the year got away from me. Maybe this year?

    @sewilson33 -- my fingers are crossed for good results for your H! Drive safely in the snow!
    @lindsayandjamie -- I hope you get a wonderful birthday surprise this year! :)
    @blueeyedblossom -- I hope you feel better! sinus infections are the worst! and GL Tuesday!
    @bremae -- LOL ovary monster. I hope your H feels better soon!


    How many months/cycles have you been TTC? cycle 6 is still hanging around.....
    Where are you in your cycle? 15 DPO?
    Any plans for testing? I have been... all negative... thinking I'll take another one tomorrow if AF doesn't show by then... just for shits and giggles. ETA: omg I'm out of cheapies!!!! Aaaahhhhh maybe I won't be testing tomorrow now lol. I'm not hopeful enough to waste a digi :-p
    Have you done anything different or plan to? Nope.
    Anything good or bad in life or TTC? I was just thinking about this, and I was wondering if anyone else had the same thoughts... When I was in high school and my period was "late", I would use all my symptoms (cramps, increase in CM, breakouts, etc) as reasoning for obviously my period coming, and how surely I wasn't pregnant. Now it's like, I'm clinging to those symptoms being reasons that clearly, I must be pregnant, and it's certainly not my period looming around the corner. LOL. I just need to get off this stupid 2ww crazy train. Choo-choo. L-)
    Thoughts, questions, concerns? I guess I should have put all that ^^ in the "thoughts" section. DUH.

    QOTD: what is something you've always wanted to try or do but haven't yet? Hmm... snow tubing! Or skiing! but I really don't think I'm coordinated enough for the latter.

  • @callitcompulsive I'm crosssssing everything for you!!!!

  • @fembrist -- what is an EMB? whatever it was, I'm sorry it was so painful! hopefully the HSG on the 24th won't be much of a biggie for you!

    Update from me: I was playing with my chart and removed my +opk completely and it gave me dotted ch's at the dip in my LP that was formerly 8DPO, thus making me 8dpo currently instead of 16DPO, which I suppose would have kind of made sense...alas, I stopped doing the OPK thing, so there's no supporting testing evidence of O. Then I go to the bathroom and find that now I'm spotting. GOODY. So back to frankencharting i went. I got a +opk with smu the day after the original +opk so I put both of them in as positive and it gave me solid ch's the day after the original set. Which makes more sense, I guess. ACK. You would think by now I'd freaking understand how this shit works, lol. In any regard, no dice this cycle. Bring on lucky number 7!!
  • Ughh sorry @callitcompulsive ! I was wondering why your chart changed. That explains it!!

    Thoughts, questions, concerns? Oh, and I was a little concerned that the first step of the RE's plan involved Femara. I will have to do some more research because I heard a lot about ladies going from Clomid to Femara. So is she "skipping a step?" It only concerns me because if that is the case, I don't want to skip ahead so quickly....ok, I'm blathering.

    There's nothing wrong with doing Femara before Clomid. Sometimes, insurances will cover Femara (because it's not specifically a fertility drug) where they won't cover Clomid; knowing this, some docs will try to help you out by going with something you don't need to pay entirely OOP for. Also, many women will respond to Femara who don't respond to Clomid. It's really your doc's call which they want to try for you. 

    I hope it goes well!

    My bad- endometrial biopsy since my u/s showed a pretty thick lining. Sorry, I work at a gyn onc office and they use EMB so I figured it was universal lol 

    Thanks for clearing that up, lol. I had NO idea. I was about to start making stuff up. ;)
