Re: TTC Check In
Where are you at in your TTC journey? C1/CD72
Any testing coming up? Yup. Because I like making myself crazy. :-S
Anything good or bad happening? (TTC wise or just in life..) DH's work is insane right now. So, naturally, he brings it home. I love the man dearly, but he talks about work every night when he gets home (on top of working more) and I'm about at my wit's end. I just want one night...just one...where the topic of conversation doesn't center around how effed up his company is or who screwed up what project. Even when I try and change the subject to something not work related, he brings it back. Granted, everyone needs to decompress somehow, but I fail to see how obsessing over work WHEN YOU'RE AT HOME is going to help.
TTC-wise, I'm still waiting. Waiting for something to happen.
QOTW: What is your dream job? An astronomer. Working on Mauna Kea.
BFP - 10/29/2016!!!, EDD - 7/8/2017
Any testing coming up? No
Anything good or bad happening? (TTC wise or just in life..) My mom's coming to visit soon! It's been over a year since I've seen her. I'm really excited but I'm also kind of nervous. Is it going to be really hard to say bye again?
QOTW: What is your dream job? Definitely a writer. I've always had this vision of sitting in my warm kitchen on a gray fall day with a warm cup of tea nearby, writing up a storm. I AM a writer... just don't make money at it.
TTC#2 Cycle 3 CD41
Any testing coming up?
Nope
Anything good or bad happening? (TTC wise or just in life..)
Just took my last dose of Provera today. Should get AF in a few days. Then we'll have a Clomid cycle to see if that will get my ovaries back on track.
QOTW: What is your dream job?
I'd love to write or be a baker.
My Goodreads Read Shelf
* After 22 months and 2 failed IUIs, we finally got our BFP *
DS delivered naturally at 41w6d on 4/18/14
Any testing coming up? Nope
Anything good or bad happening? (TTC wise or just in life..) I'm starting a new job tomorrow (which is why we pushed TTC back until February), and I'm super excited about that. My BBT should come in tomorrow, so I will be able to start temping on Tuesday.
QOTW: What is your dream job? Hopefully the one I start tomorrow (Hematology/Oncology Nurse Practitioner). I loved working as Heme/Onc as an RN, and I hope it will be even more amazing as an NP.
Any other questions or concerns you'd like to share, go right ahead.
I really hope my body will cooperate and have regular cycles, but I don't think it will. I have been on BCP for 12 years (with one 3 month break about 7 years ago). My cycles would last 4-8 months, and I have had to use Provera before. I know cycles can change, and I just hope that mine will be regular and ovulatory. I don't have high hopes though.
ETA: @aboxofchocolates I am in a very similar position as you! I will be 28 in a couple weeks, and I'm starting a new job tomorrow. Ultimately, H and I decided to TTA until February. Good luck with making your decision!
Any testing coming up? Yes...FF gave me crosshairs this morning. I'm kind of surprised. I also think it's wrong. I think it should be 4 days earlier based on my temps and CF. I'm not getting my hopes up, though. (Also, if anyone wants to look at my chart, the link is in my siggy.)
Anything good or bad happening? (TTC wise or just in life..) See above. Work has been super hectic and stressful this week and it hasn't helped that I've felt like crap. I will say that I'm looking forward to next Thursday. I have an interview.
BFP - 10/29/2016!!!, EDD - 7/8/2017

Good luck with your interview @lfk2013.
I'm glad you like your new job @aboxofchocolates! Good luck with your TTC decision.
AFM...
I'm on C1 CD28 off BCP and still waiting for ovulation. H and I are TTA until February 2016.
I'm not using OPKs because I have PCOS, but I am tracking CM and temping. I really hope my body will get its crap together. I don't want to have to call for Provera. Time will tell...
Has anyone ever had ovulation spotting? I'm symptom spotting for O!
