    How many months/cycles have you been TTC? 15 months/15cycles

    Where are you in your cycle? CD18 no clue about DPO

    Any plans for testing? Nope

    Have you done anything different or plan to? Everything is all kinds of f'ed up this cycle! My temps got wonky, my room was freezing for days. I might stop temping this month.
    I did however have a pelvic u/s which came back all clear. HSG will be scheduled once AF starts.

    Anything good or bad in life or TTC? Good - DH and I are going away to Florida for a week in March.
    Bad - I really wish that my temping wasn't screwed up this month. It ruined everything, I'm thinking about stopping temping for the remainder of the month since it's pointless.

    Thoughts, questions, concerns, chart stalks? Nothing
    Oh also, my co-worker/friend just found out his GF is pregnant (just restarted their relationship 2 months ago), she might be miscarrying and he keeps bringing it up to me every hour. I know he is super nervous and they weren't decided whether to keep it or not but he keeps confiding in me and it is making me more and more uncomfortable. He has NO idea about my struggles.

    QOTD: What is something that you regret most from your past? I regret a lot of things I did in high school and early college years. I think I thought very little of myself and made up for it in negative ways.

    QOTD: What is something you are most proud of? I'm very proud of the person I have become, a lot of the change is due to DH, but a am the one who graduated with a masters, moved out, started a career and helped DH and I get to a great place financially. This is very opposite how my family is.

  • How many months/cycles have you been TTC? c'mon lucky cycle 7!!!

    Where are you in your cycle? CD 14

    Any plans for testing? I've been doing the OPK thing, even though it's too early. lol.

    Have you done anything different or plan to? Not really. lol

    Anything good or bad in life or TTC? I know it's silly and I know I'll be disappointed at some point (I'm sure) but I'm really hopeful for this cycle, since this is the first one with H back on day shift. He seems game with the plan so FX when it comes down to it, he'll be up to bone down after a 13 hour day... like he said he would... I guess we'll see.

    Thoughts, questions, concerns, chart stalks? Nope.

    QOTD: What is something that you regret most from your past? Eh, nothing. All the fucked up shit brought me to where I am today, and that's a good thing. I would have never learned those lessons and who knows what I'd be like had those things never happened. No use living in the past and all that.

    QOTD: What is something you are most proud of? Such deep questions today. lol... gosh, I don't know. Nothing really sticks out. As I said above, I don't really dwell on shameful things, so I guess it would make sense to not hang on to prideful things. I'm like the worst question answerer EVAR.
  • How many months/cycles have you been TTC?
    I now think this is cycle 5 and I've been wrong the last couple times I posted on here, since we started trying the end of August 2013 but this cycle and my last were both over a month long.  So, cycle 5.

    Where are you in your cycle?
    CD53

    Any plans for testing?
    Nope

    Have you done anything different or plan to?
    Next cycle, whenever that is, I'm going to have an additional alarm set so I can make sure I'm not missing taking my temp.

    Anything good or bad in life or TTC?
    These long cycles are making me antsy.  I've also been feeling burned out because of work, and that's affecting my school work.

    Thoughts, questions, concerns, chart stalks?

    QOTD: What is something that you regret most from your past?
    Not getting help for my depression and anxiety sooner.  It was really difficult for me to admit I needed help for a long time because that would mean something was "wrong" with me.

    QOTD: What is something you are most proud of?
    My grades and attendance in the last couple classes I've taken.  Current class is not going as well due to being burned out on work

  • How many months/cycles have you been TTC?
    Almost15 /8

    Where are you in your cycle?
    CD22, possibly just O'd or waiting to O.

    Any plans for testing?
    Nope.

    Have you done anything different or plan to?
    Drs appt at the end of March.

    Anything good or bad in life or TTC?
    I'm getting SOOOO close to vacation. I am ready.

    Thoughts, questions, concerns, chart stalks?
    I don't know where I belong anymore. I feel like I am 3T now, but I don't know. I'm lost.

    QOTD: What is something that you regret most from your past?
    Getting married right out of high school... Lesson learned though!

    QOTD: What is something you are most proud of?
    Getting the heck out of small town life. Not much to be proud of, I know I'm missing something though.

  • How many months/cycles have you been TTC? This is my second

    Where are you in your cycle? Waiting.... for CD1 I guess. I don't think I ovulated.

    Any plans for testing? I will take a pregnancy test if I miss my period, but I'm not optimistic. I took OPKs twice per day, but no positive and no real EWCM either. The OPKs started getting darker, but then went faint again. Last cycle was only 24 days and pretty light whereas normally my cycles were around 32 days.

    Have you done anything different or plan to? I tried green tea, but didn't really see an effect on CM production. I think it is a hormonal issue anyway. Hopefully when my hormones straighten out CM won't be an issue. I guess going forward I'm going to be NNT until I get better signs that I'm actually able to get pregnant. I will probably just pay attention to CM and wait for my cycles to get back to normal.

    Anything good or bad in life or TTC? I was very excited to get my hair cut today, but my hair stylist canceled last minute because she had car trouble. I can't get time to go see her for another couple weeks, but I want my hair cut now! ::stomps and pouts::

    Thoughts, questions, concerns, chart stalks?

    QOTD: What is something that you regret most from your past? I regret losing touch with good friends.

    QOTD: What is something you are most proud of? I can't think of anything I'm particularly proud of.



    I could hold you for a million years
    To make you feel my love.
  • @blueeyedblossom - I'm sorry you feel like you are 3T now! I really hope that your future appointments give you some answers.

  • How many months/cycles have you been TTC? 3/2

    Where are you in your cycle? CD14

    Any plans for testing? Using OPKs once or twice a day.

    Have you done anything different or plan to? Started using Fertility Friend last night.

    Anything good or bad in life or TTC?

    Thoughts, questions, concerns, chart stalks? I'm really worried that I am not ovulating at all. For the past 2 days I have been having mild cramps on my lower right side and a TON of cm (Sorry, TMI!) but no temp rise and negative OPKs. I know it could still just be too early but my anxiety about the whole thing is kind of driving me bonkers.

    QOTD: What is something that you regret most from your past? I regret that I was so shy and quiet in middle school/high school. 

    QOTD: What is something you are most proud of?
    I'm proud of how strong and loving my relationship with my DH is. We've been together almost 10 years and been through quite a bit. I feel like our relationship gets stronger with each passing year.

  • @oohsparkly13 It is only CD14 you just need to give it some time. Not everyone ovulates around CD15.

    Yeah, the logical part of my brain totally knows that...my anxiety about the whole thing was getting the best of me though, lol.

    I'm not going to say relax even though that's the best advice, because in all honesty, I've been where you are! I hope you get pretty CH's soon!
