Re: TTC/3T Check-in
Any testing coming up? I'll POAS Friday morning. Our timing wasn't great, so I don't have high hopes, but I'm testing before we go to CA for the weekend.
Anything good or bad happening? (TTC wise or just in life..) I'm just keeping on keeping on. I'm still getting into the swing of things at work, so it's stressful, but other than that, nothing much is going on. Other than the waiting.
FFC/AW of the Week (no rules): This is the earliest I've ever O'd on my own before. I'm not used to having a shorter, more normal cycle.
BFP - 10/29/2016!!!, EDD - 7/8/2017
P.S. I'm only 1 day ahead of you in DPO. :-) Maybe this will be our cycle, right?

Anything good or bad happening? (TTC wise or just in life..)
Not much. Same ole thing here.
FFC/AW of the Week (no rules):
I'm waiting to test on Sunday because we're going to the Cubs game on Friday with a bunch of friends and spending 2 days in downtown Chicago. I want to be able to have some drinks.

Any testing coming up? nope - I got a positive on my OPK Saturday which kinda sucked because DH was out of town over the weekend. We BD Friday before he left and yesterday when he got back. I won't pregnancy test unless I miss AF which is due Oct 1.
Anything good or bad happening? (TTC wise or just in life..) Something pretty cool is I was able to get into a couple classes at a yoga workshop this weekend at a studio downtown. It had been sold out for months but I guess a couple openings came up. The classes I signed up for involve arm balances, inversions, and back bending. I'm super excited because the teacher is David Swenson who wrote the asthanga primary series book so he is a huge name.
FFC/AW of the Week (no rules): So it's September 20th and it's going to be 90 today
I start progesterone injections tonight, and they'll be daily. I'm currently just taking estrogen shots on Mondays and Fridays, so now everything gets a little more real, and a little harder.
I'm excited and nervous. Part of me is all "yay! it has happened before and will again" and part of me thinks that a) I've been successful in 1/8 embryos so far with IVF so chances are not good and b) I already got what I begged/prayed/hoped/asked for, and I don't really deserve another. I think IF permanently changed my mindset/confidence/etc.
