Re: TTC Check In

    Any testing coming up? Tomorrow morning...
    Anything good or bad happening? (TTC wise or just in life..) I've felt "off" for the past few days. This morning it culminated with almost throwing up while eating my breakfast (which I did not finish). The texture was gross. The pessimistic part of me is saying it's not related...that I'm coming down with something and I couldn't possibly have really O'd. I think a big part is that it's our first cycle trying and there's no way. I'm also terrified...
    QOTW: Do you collect anything (like stamps, matchbooks, etc.)? Rocks from different jobsites that are cool

  • Cycle 3, calendar day 9.

    I'll probably start OPKs tomorrow a.m. I think I've pretty much given up on the idea of temping.

    Just crazy busy with work. Loved having a three day weekend to catch up with yard and house work!!

    H buys a soccer scarf from each country we visit (he also tries to visit a stadium too), but I don't personally collect anything. I'm cheap and hate clutter. :)

    Any testing coming up? OPK's Still no detection of LH. I am so irritated.
    Anything good or bad happening? (TTC wise or just in life..) It is month three and I am frustrated. I will be temoing next week to see if I can catch O before my annual checkup.
    QOTW: Do you collect anything (like stamps, matchbooks, etc.)? Books. Books like crazy!

  • FX for you @lfk2013!!

    @als1982 Why are you giving up on temping? Sorry if you covered this somewhere else!

    I hope you get a + OPK soon @alyssa32713!

    Where are you at in your TTC journey? TTA until Feb. 2016

    Any testing coming up? Nope

    Anything good or bad happening? (TTC wise or just in life..) H and I have decided that I will stop BCP next month to allow my body 6 months before TTC to (hopefully) get on track.

    QOTW: Do you collect anything (like stamps, matchbooks, etc.)? Not really. We have a few rocks that we brought back from Alaska and maybe a couple other places, but I wouldn't call it a collection.

    My sleeper is just too erratic, I consistently wake up at 2/3 a.m. for an email check and then my actual wake up time varies from day to day, anywhere from 5-7:30 depending on that day's schedule. I'd rather get as much good quality sleep as I can than get PG ASAP.

    Gotcha! Sleep is definitely important.

  • And FF took away my crosshairs this morning. And it was a BFN last night.

    I'm actually not surprised (yet still a little disappointed). I knew it was too good to be true. Looks like I will be making a call to my OB/GYN this morning. It's been 6 weeks since I had my Mirena removed. The doctor said 4-6 weeks. Honestly, I think something else is going on with my body.

    My doc says to continue waiting until the end of July/beginning of August to see what happens. :(

  • Boo! Sorry you still have to wait @lfk2013! What happens July/August? Provera after a negative HPT?

  • Yup. They'd do Provera after a negative blood test. After we have used protection for two weeks.

    She did say that because we are TTC, that would be the best course. If we weren't TTC, she said we should just wait it out.

    :-O

  • @lfk2013 Sorry for the BFN and wonky cycle.
    Just an FYI, my doctor says the same thing.  If it's a long cycle while TTA, they won't do anything to end it.  The only time they would was when we were TTC.
