  Where are you at in your TTC journey? Have another RE opinion appointment later this week. 

  
  Any testing coming up? We'll see what this doc has to say.  

  
  Anything good or bad happening? (TTC wise or just in life..) Just busy!! Sorry that I posted (late) and ran and never made it back last week! I am so ready for a vacation! I just have to keep reminding myself that all this working (between H and I) is for our end goal to expand our family to include a little one or two. It's EXHAUSTING though! :P 

  
  

  QOTW: What are you currently listening to and loving?   I love Lorde's new song, Magnets.

  Where are you at in your TTC journey? 

  CD2  That long cycle finally gave in! Even though IF I did ovulate, our timing was spot on but oh well.  Think this puts us at 8 months of TTC2.0 now. 
  Any testing coming up?
  No, but I'll start temping in a few days.  I also started the PCOS diet last week.  So FX my body works.  Now we just need to make sure we have ST more often. 
  

  Anything good or bad happening? (TTC wise or just in life..)

  I officially hate my job and am searching for something different. I'm getting fed up with the push back I get for wanting to grow and expand my department.  So I'm done.  Now it's just figuring out what it is that I want to do instead. 

  QOTW: What are you currently listening to and loving?

  Hmmm. I love listening to the EntreLeadership podcast.

  Where are you at in your TTC journey? Still Cycle 2, CD81 X(

  Any testing coming up? If AF doesn't show up by CD90 I will. And then I will be calling my OB/GYN.

  Anything good or bad happening? (TTC wise or just in life..) I went to CA for work last week and spent a few extra days with my family out there. It was great to see my uncles, cousins, and grandparents. Other than that, not much is going on. I'm trying to tone down the freak outs at home right now. I've been channeling my frustration toward DH and that's not fair to him at all. It's not him that's not working. 

  QOTW: What are you currently listening to and loving? As always, Sara Bareilles. I'm also loving Adele's new album.

  

  Married: 10/13/2013

  Hi everyone! I just randomly decided to check this board. I'm so glad to see that it is becoming more active!

  
  

  @FutureMrsWright2012 How did your appt go?

  
  

  @brij2006 I'm sorry you hate your job. What kind of job are you looking for? I hope your PCOS diet helps.

  
  

  @lfk2013 I'm sorry about your long cycles. That is so frustrating! 
  

  
  

  Where are you at in your TTC journey? I am in Cycle 2 Month 4 TTC #1 with long cycles and PCOS

  
  Any testing coming up? Maybe a pregnancy test in about 2 weeks (if I really ovulated)

  
  

  Anything good or bad happening? (TTC wise or just in life..) I have been off BCP since the end of July 2015, and I'm only on my 4th cycle. Based on my last 2 cycles, FF predicted that I would ovulate between CD 52-53, and I got a + OPK on CD 29! I was super excited about that, but H has been out of town since Thursday. So our timing was only -3, and I wish it was better. I'm excited to be TTC though. I'm wondering if the + OPK might have been a surge that won't result in ovulation. Time will tell I guess.

  
  QOTW: What are you currently listening to and loving? H recently introduced me to Sanford and Sons, which I like. I am obsessed with Hozier's new song Someone New. I listen to it all the time.

  @GABride2010 - Hi! Glad to see you're still around here! FX that the timing worked out for you guys this cycle!

  
  

  My appointment went well. This RE is definitely more interested in trying to determine why we lost our son more than anything else at this point. His concern is obviously the possibility of it happening again, and he wants to make sure that no matter what route we take that our baby(ies) has the best possible environment from the beginning. He is referring me to a high risk OB/perinatologist to look over my all of my records to make sure there isn't anything that was missed. On one hand, I am happy that someone is taking this seriously and am definitely in agreement that I don't want it to happen again, but I'm also concerned that going on this search might still not give us any answers. 

  
  

  One more RE opinion at the end of the month and I'm going to be meeting with a friend of a friend to hear about international IVF next week. Then, H and I will have a good idea of how we are going to move forward in the Fall.

  @FutureMrsWright2012 I'm glad your appt went well. I also post on TCF, and I know there are a couple women on there who have done international IVF with success. I hope you get some answers from the high risk OB/Perinatologist.
