GTKY: If you're comfortable enough, share your favorite picture from your wedding day. If you aren't married, share your favorite picture of you and SO. Feel free to scrub out your faces if you're more comfortable!!
R/R/CS: DH comes home today so I can finally tell him about my doctor's appointment from Monday! haha fortunately, everything that we decided is what I told him that I wanted so he shouldn't be surprised. It's been 282 days of Waiting to Effing Ovulate... totally not going to let that bother me..
GTKY: Let's see if I can do this... My veil has been worn by most of the women in my family since 1928--it was my great grandmother's veil.
WAYDTGKU: putting the moves on DH, PNV, extra folic acid, baby aspirin, fish oil, and I took mucinex for the first time yesterday
R/R/CS: I am CRAMPING so bad I want to cry. It woke me up this morning. What the hell is this nonsense. And where is my ovulation? I have zero patience and have moved myself into the "I'm never going to ovulate" category so feel free to ignore my insanity (I know I'm only cd13. Pain makes me an evil person. This is as bad as my AF cramps. All generalized, but feeling sharp twinges on the right. Ovulation pain my ass. This is a second period complete with nausea.

I just went through my pictures yesterday actually for our florist!! And I cried at the memories We were married July 19, 2014 and I was the happiest I've ever been!! I love to AW.
My veil was 13 feet long and designed by me I love it just as much as, maybe more than, my dress.
Edited because it totally said favorite, as in 1, picture, not 6 of them.
R/R/CS: Well, it's CD1. I think that alone says enough. I don't know how I seem to get my hopes up EVERY MONTH just to have them crushed. Not sure why but this cycle change has been especially hard. Thankfully DH puts up with all my crying and sadness.
**TW baby** Last night, we were looking at old pictures and videos. DH stumbled across a video of DS when he was a newborn. We were giving him his first bath at home. He was so little and his little newborn cry was so sweet. I instantly just broke down in tears. I would love to have those experiences again more than anything. (Sorry if this seems selfish or insensitive to those of you that don't have any children yet, it was not my intention.)
GTKY: DH and I got married at the courthouse. I don't regret it at all. It was small and intimate and all our family was there. It's hard for me to find any pictures of that day because even though I've asked for people to send me whatever pictures they have of that day, they have not. But, I have this beautiful gem from our 2 year anniversary last year. DH and I got dressed up in the same clothes we wore at our wedding and went out to a fancy dinner while we were on vacation.
Amazing pictures!! @mokay19 That veil is amazinggggg! Can't wait to see what other pics pop up today!!
Month/Cycle: 9/6
CD: 7
WAYDTGKU: PNV, Vit D, Letrozole 7.5mg, yadda yadda
R/R/CS: DH wanted to HIO last night, and we actually did two nights ago as well. So I think it's perfect timing to get this ball rolling on EOD BD!! I'll go in Monday for a follie scan to see where I'm at. I'm honestly not expecting it to be trigger day because I know my lining will still be too thin. Last cycle I had to take estrogen twice a day for four or five days until my lining got nice and thick. I'll be very surprised if I'm ready to trigger on Monday. But I still have a really good feeling about this cycle! Just glad the positive energy is staying with me this time!
GTKY: If you're comfortable enough, share your favorite picture from your wedding day. If you aren't married, share your favorite picture of you and SO. Feel free to scrub out your faces if you're more comfortable!! Sorry it's huge!
R/R/CS: clomid begins tonight. let's get this going.

Good Morning all and happy Friday EVE!!! The weekend is almost here
I just wanted to thank y'all for being so great and supportive yesterday. I wish these mental breakdowns did not happen so often. LOL
Month/Cycle: 28 / 23
CD: 28
WAYDTGKU: HIO, preseed if needed.
R/R/CS: I feel like the calm after my own storm. Weird. My temp did go up a bit today so I am hoping it continues to climb. Hoping after my BSC fit yesterday DH will want to get it on later. But I am getting off early today to take him to the doctor so that should be a fair trade right? Getting car washed and waxed today in prep for tomorrows fundraiser for the Pulse victims.
R/R/CS: I'm just glad AF decided to show. I knew our timing wasn't going to work last month so I'm ready to get this show on the road. Also, first day temping!
GTKY: This picture is actually one our photographer took on his phone but it ended up as a favorite!
@mrsdaddario Thanks for not bolding the post! lol I know that's a silly thing to be excited about but i was excited when i saw that! I'm also so glad you're feeling positive this cycle. Happy thoughts
@mokay19 That veil is beautful!! What a cool tradition!
@Sugargirl1019 That kind of cramping doesn't sound pleasent at all! If it keeps up I might call your dr. Also, I labeled myself in the 'not going to ovulate' camp last month, and i finally did on CD23. Hang in there!
@KirstinH88 Sorry about CD1 And yes to a courthouse wedding! I loved my wedding, but there were so many times when i just wanted to go and get the piece of paper and be done.
@GrabberBlue2010 I'm glad you're feeling better today! We all have our meltdown days. No judgement
eta: @hartmich What an awesome picture!! Definitely a keeper. Also temping is the best thing ever. I am so glad i started last month and can't imagine not knowing what's going on with my body now.
Month/Cycle: 3/3 TTCAL
CD: 9
WAYDTGKU: PNV, tracking cm, RRL tea, vitex and HIO at some point
R/R/CS: I'm trying to be a little less obsessive with TTC. I know that can be a slippery slope and I was more upset about this last CD1 than i should've been so I want to stop that in its tracks if i can. At least this cycle.
I finally had time to vacuum the pool yesterday, so I am fully planning on going home after work and floating around in the pool with a beer until DH gets home. 5:00 can't come soon enough!
GTKY: If you're comfortable enough, share your favorite picture from your wedding day. If you aren't married, share your favorite picture of you and SO. Feel free to scrub out your faces if you're more comfortable!!
It rained a little through our ceremony (luckily it was indoors), but the resulting sunset was unreal!!
@mokay19 - Your pic is STUNNING!!!! @Sugargirl1019 - So sorry for all the cramping. That is awful. Bad enough when AF is being a terror. We don't want it for O either! You veil is stunning! You did an amazing job on it. Such a beautiful picture!! @KirstinH88 - So sorry for CD 1. It is a sad day for sure when it shows up. Creepy internet hugs to you I adore your dress!!! It is so beautiful!! @mrsdaddario - FX for HIO EOD and that you lining thickens quickly! And loving your positive thinking. It is contagious!!! Gosh what a gorgeous pic! I love everything about it! @Daisy621 - Love the pic. Such a beautiful, sweet and tender moment! Made me AAWWWWW
@mrsdaddario thank yoooou for not bolding everything!!
Everyone looks GAWGEOUS!! @Sugargirl1019 edit: sorry I meant @mokay19 lol! our dresses are different but the bottoms look the same with the tiers! Love it! Also I love that about your veil! Tradition is such a beautiful thing.
Month/Cycle: 5/5
CD: 18
WAYDTGKU: 90% of the things
R/R/CS: Well temp went extra low this morning which I'm hoping is a sign that today is O, but I also got woken up at 3 am to the loudest crack of thunder I have ever heard in my life, like DH and I both shot right up and were like WTF?! It was insane! And usually I don't take my temp even if I wake up in the middle of the night because I would drive myself nuts, but this was like well I am most definitely awake awake right now! Lawd, so who if knows my temp is reliable. Also DH said he needed a break yesterday so if today is O day then we missed -1 and I would not be happy about that. I know EOD is good but meh. Also another rant, my dogs bark incessantly in the morning, right before my alarm is supposed to go off! Don't their throats ever start hurting after like 30 minutes? I always wonder that to myself.
GTKY: If you're comfortable enough, share your favorite picture from your wedding day. If you aren't married, share your favorite picture of you and SO. Feel free to scrub out your faces if you're more comfortable!!
this is my favorite picture from our wedding, we got a free canvas of it from our photographer for giving him a good review on the knot and I've also had it as my lock screen ever since we got the pictures back It's just a screen shot from my phone, but here it is!
@jatwal128 - Have fun in the pool!!! Sounds like so much fun. Your pics totally melt my heart. That top one has me all tearing up. And that sunset tho... OMG. @juliebeannn - Keeping your dad in my thoughts! Hoping all does well Beautiful pic!
R/R/CS: Not much to report here. Just waiting for AF to officially leave.
GTKY: If you're comfortable enough, share your favorite picture from your wedding day. If you aren't married, share your favorite picture of you and SO. Feel free to scrub out your faces if you're more comfortable!!
In full disclosure, (maybe UO?) I didn't want a wedding. I wanted to get married, but felt a wedding was a huge source of hoopla and stress and money I just didn't need or want. DH wanted one badly though, so I caved. It wasn't a good time for me, but I tried to make happy.
I missed you guys!!! I feel like I’ve been gone for months. So many new names!
Back later for comments!
Month/Cycle: 9/9 (2 cycles NTNP, 1 cycle anovulatory,
5 cycles with great timing)
CD: 2
WAYDTGKTFU: This month just
BBT, Clearblue OPK, and CM.
R/R/CS: So, I took a whole month/cycle away from the bump. I was lurking around though in the grad
thread so I got to see all the great news last/this month! So many BFPs!!! So, in terms of my month off, I think I just
needed a break from everything. I thought
it would help but honestly I found myself really missing the support of this
place…especially yesterday on CD 1 again.
I’m a little bummed again obviously but at least we’re one month closer
to medical intervention! That’s my
silver lining and it seems to help me stay positive so I’m sticking to it! DH is really starting to take every BFN
personally now I think. It’s starting to
affect him so I’m trying to stay strong for the both of us. So far so good! I can certainly see how this process can make
or break a relationship. It’s a very
trying process but I’m happy to say it’s really brought DH and I even closer
emotionally. AHHH I love him!
GTKY: If you’re
comfortable enough, share your favorite picture from your wedding day.
R/R/CS: H and I got in a tiff last night because he still won`t HIO. I asked him about it and he said he`s bored and that TTC is really hard on him and he doesn`t like all the things he has to do. I almost lost it on him because all he literally has to do is have sex with his wife. My entire life has changed, but he`s SO hard done by. Ugh. I feel awful about being mad.
GTKY: If you're comfortable enough, share your favorite picture from your wedding day. If you aren't married, share your favorite picture of you and SO. Feel free to scrub out your faces if you're more comfortable!! Despite how I`m feeling, whenever I look at this picture I can`t help but smile. Also, super sorry it`s so big!
@kfair001 - Hi there! I am one of the newbies ( been here about a month), so I am thrilled to see one of the Vets back! lol. I totally understand the need for a break. Sometimes you do have to do it for your own well being. I am sorry for AF and starting over again this month. It is a very hard process (I flipped yesterday over it) and as terrible as it is on a marriage, you are right, it does bring you closer. Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers and FX that this will be your cycle! ETA - Your pic is absolutely gorgeous!!!!
@Dilynne - DH and I had a similar talk yesterday. He doesn't like the scheduled, on-demand sex cuz it makes him feel like a sperm factory. I totally get that. He requested I be more spontaneous and direct through action instead of just tapping him on the shoulder and saying "it's time". Hahaha. Overall, after talking we both felt much better about it all. I hope things get better for you and your DH!!

WAYDTGKU: PNVs, OPKs, temping, and well, you know
R/R/CS: My sweet niece was born last Friday, and I'm excited to go snuggle on her later at my parents' house later this evening.
GTKY: @GrabberBlue2010 One picture DOES seem nearly impossible! This is one of my favorites for a few reasons. We really went for our kiss. You only get one first kiss as a married couple, so we wanted to make it a good one. We found the pictures on our altar area at a flea market long before we got married and decided to incorporate them somehow to the wedding. Then, when we got back from our honeymoon, we did the logical thing and got them as tattoos. DH has the lady on his arm, and I have the gentleman on the back of my thigh.
@mrsdaddario I'm so glad to hear you're feeling so good about this cycle. I hope your appointment goes well and you can get over to TWW soon! (So I can cheer you on!)
Month/Cycle: 11/8(2AL)
CD: 13
WAYDTGKU: trying for the timing we can get
R/R/CS: Guysss, after wild, ugly temps last cycle, my chart has never been so consistent. I'm beginning to feel real hope that my body is ready for trying this cycle.
@Schumerator - Not gonna lie, I would probably have peed myself a little. And then not be able to go back to sleep at all. And I have thought the same exact thing about dogs. Like really? How have you not turned yourself into a squeeky toy by now? I love you picture. It is SO beautiful!!!
@Dilynne - Sorry you are having a hard time with H. That is very frustrating. Perhaps once he calms down, taking a a moment to see what is on his mind and what he thinks can be down to improve his lack of interest. Maybe putting the ball in his court and giving him the option to make some decisions will help. Men! And you are so beautiful! Your picture is such a lovely classic!
R/R/CS: I think I ovulated this morning. Positive OPK yesterday (I was told if it's equal to the test line, count it) and today and my temp went up - not to the highest of this cycle, but I got up at 2 and for water since FI drank it all and temped at 5. Felt a dull ache on my left side this morning and it was right side last month. Feel free to CS in the link in my signature. Talked to FI about having a short LP and he said, "Don't worry, we'll get you knocked up!" and then proceeded to go do laundry for his 24 hour shift at work today. I love and hate that he is so calm about everything! I won't see him until Monday because he is leaving for his bachelor party right from work tomorrow morning.
GTKY: If you're comfortable enough, share your favorite picture from your wedding day. If you aren't married, share your favorite picture of you and SO. Feel free to scrub out your faces if you're more comfortable!!
We are exactly one month away from wedding day, so here's a pic from our engagement shoot and another one I made when we were a year out. It isn't the best one and I was too lazy to find the one without the watermark, but it's funny and even funnier when you see our faces! Had it not been for Zika, we would have started TTC last night and today, but we are still preventing. Can't wait! Seeing everyone's anniversaries come up in WTO and today's beautiful pics has me super excited!
It's funny how it's the little things in life that mean the most...not where you live, or what you drive, or the price tag on your clothes... There's no dollar sign on a piece of mind, this I've come to know! *ZBB*
@hezzer78 I didn't want a wedding either but DH did. In the end I'm glad we had one, but it was definitely for him.
@Dilynne I'm sorry your DH is being difficult. I don't think some men understand all that some women have to keep track of and to do.
Month/Cycle: 1/1 TTCAL 6/6 total
CD: 9
WAYDTGKU: HIO ED starting CD12, PNV, trying out OPKs for the first time
R/R/CS: DH has a hip injury and kept saying it won't keep us from HIO for a few days. Then last night he made some comments about maybe not being able to and how it might make his hip worse. I get it, you're injured, but if we can't try this month just say that so I don't get my hopes up.
GTKY: If you're comfortable enough, share your favorite picture from your wedding day. If you aren't married, share your favorite picture of you and SO. Feel free to scrub out your faces if you're more comfortable!!
This was just a random picture our photographer took, I'm not sure why I love it so much, but I do!
I can't help myself and have to add a second
It stormed just after our ceremony, then cleared up again giving us this beautiful rainbow!! (she enhanced it just a tad but it really was so vibrant in person)
Sorry the pics are so huge, how do I make them smaller?!
R/R/CS: There is not enough coffee in the world to fix the way I feel right now.
GTKY: If you're comfortable enough, share your favorite picture from your wedding day. If you aren't married, share your favorite picture of you and SO. Feel free to scrub out your faces if you're more comfortable!!
Can I share two? I'm so sorry if these are huge... I'm mobile bumping today.
@virginiaham Did you notice your chart has a heart in it?! MUST be good luck! @ktcakes87 Love your color scheme, your flowers, and the rainbow! @hartmich I always dreamed of having a pic in a stadium. Would have loved to do our engagement pics like that. @kfair001 OMG is all I can say! @hezzer78 Love the scenery around you! @juliebeann That pic looks Pinterest worthy! @mokay19 Love the tradition! @mrsdaddario I am a huge fan of bar weddings / pics! They are all the rage now. @Dilynne, @Schumerator, @swanbrooner - Love the B&W pics!
It's funny how it's the little things in life that mean the most...not where you live, or what you drive, or the price tag on your clothes... There's no dollar sign on a piece of mind, this I've come to know! *ZBB*
@Sugargirl1019 lol, yes but it's highly unlikely to happen every single day when he's not here to tell me how nice it is to crawl into a made bed. I hope you feel better and your body rewards you with a clear O soon!

@furbabymom2007 I'm surprised to see you over here! I thought for sure you'd be in TWW by now! All that worrying before you left, how rude of your body lol. But I'm glad to see you over here in general
@clover28 Before I scrolled down further, I thought your DH was grabbing your boob in your second picture. And I had a fleeting though of how jealous my DH would have been. He would have liked a picture like that lol.
@virginiaham Thank you!! Your chart looks really good! I'm thinking your body is getting back in the program!! Fx!
@mrsdaddario while I was away I ended up not get a positive OPK so I called the RE when I got back in. They did the scans and blood work on Tuesday and told me to trigger that night! So the timing ended up being ok somehow lol. Now I am probably ovulating as we speak. I just haven't seen a temp rise yet.
somehow I am still Oing around day 18 even with letrozole and pregnyl... Oh well.
WAYDTGKU: BBT, OPK, HIO except not last night see rant
R/R/CS: So DH wanted to take a night off. I can totally understand because I seem to O later in the FW and last month we got burnt out. At the same time I have this paranoid crazy feeling about doing it every damn day. I know they say EOD is enough. I need to chill. Come on O!!

@Sugargirl1019 - So sorry for all the cramping. That is awful. Bad enough when AF is being a terror. We don't want it for O either! You veil is stunning! You did an amazing job on it. Such a beautiful picture!!
@KirstinH88 - So sorry for CD 1. It is a sad day for sure when it shows up. Creepy internet hugs to you I adore your dress!!! It is so beautiful!!
@mrsdaddario - FX for HIO EOD and that you lining thickens quickly! And loving your positive thinking. It is contagious!!! Gosh what a gorgeous pic! I love everything about it!
@Daisy621 - Love the pic. Such a beautiful, sweet and tender moment! Made me AAWWWWW

R/R/CS: Well temp went extra low this morning which I'm hoping is a sign that today is O, but I also got woken up at 3 am to the loudest crack of thunder I have ever heard in my life, like DH and I both shot right up and were like WTF?! It was insane! And usually I don't take my temp even if I wake up in the middle of the night because I would drive myself nuts, but this was like well I am most definitely awake awake right now! Lawd, so who if knows my temp is reliable. Also DH said he needed a break yesterday so if today is O day then we missed -1 and I would not be happy about that. I know EOD is good but meh. Also another rant, my dogs bark incessantly in the morning, right before my alarm is supposed to go off! Don't their throats ever start hurting after like 30 minutes? I always wonder that to myself.

this is my favorite picture from our wedding, we got a free canvas of it from our photographer for giving him a good review on the knot and I've also had it as my lock screen ever since we got the pictures back It's just a screen shot from my phone, but here it is!

In full disclosure, (maybe UO?) I didn't want a wedding. I wanted to get married, but felt a wedding was a huge source of hoopla and stress and money I just didn't need or want. DH wanted one badly though, so I caved. It wasn't a good time for me, but I tried to make happy.

I missed you guys!!! I feel like I’ve been gone for months. So many new names!
Back later for comments!
Month/Cycle: 9/9 (2 cycles NTNP, 1 cycle anovulatory, 5 cycles with great timing)
CD: 2
WAYDTGKTFU: This month just BBT, Clearblue OPK, and CM.
R/R/CS: So, I took a whole month/cycle away from the bump. I was lurking around though in the grad thread so I got to see all the great news last/this month! So many BFPs!!! So, in terms of my month off, I think I just needed a break from everything. I thought it would help but honestly I found myself really missing the support of this place…especially yesterday on CD 1 again. I’m a little bummed again obviously but at least we’re one month closer to medical intervention! That’s my silver lining and it seems to help me stay positive so I’m sticking to it! DH is really starting to take every BFN personally now I think. It’s starting to affect him so I’m trying to stay strong for the both of us. So far so good! I can certainly see how this process can make or break a relationship. It’s a very trying process but I’m happy to say it’s really brought DH and I even closer emotionally. AHHH I love him!
GTKY: If you’re comfortable enough, share your favorite picture from your wedding day.

R/R/CS: H and I got in a tiff last night because he still won`t HIO. I asked him about it and he said he`s bored and that TTC is really hard on him and he doesn`t like all the things he has to do. I almost lost it on him because all he literally has to do is have sex with his wife. My entire life has changed, but he`s SO hard done by. Ugh. I feel awful about being mad.

WAYDTGKU: PNVs, OPKs, temping, and well, you know
R/R/CS: My sweet niece was born last Friday, and I'm excited to go snuggle on her later at my parents' house later this evening.
GTKY: @GrabberBlue2010 One picture DOES seem nearly impossible! This is one of my favorites for a few reasons. We really went for our kiss. You only get one first kiss as a married couple, so we wanted to make it a good one. We found the pictures on our altar area at a flea market long before we got married and decided to incorporate them somehow to the wedding. Then, when we got back from our honeymoon, we did the logical thing and got them as tattoos. DH has the lady on his arm, and I have the gentleman on the back of my thigh.
Month/Cycle: 11/8(2AL)
CD: 13
WAYDTGKU: trying for the timing we can get
R/R/CS: Guysss, after wild, ugly temps last cycle, my chart has never been so consistent. I'm beginning to feel real hope that my body is ready for trying this cycle.

@Dilynne - Sorry you are having a hard time with H. That is very frustrating. Perhaps once he calms down, taking a a moment to see what is on his mind and what he thinks can be down to improve his lack of interest. Maybe putting the ball in his court and giving him the option to make some decisions will help. Men! And you are so beautiful! Your picture is such a lovely classic!

R/R/CS: I think I ovulated this morning. Positive OPK yesterday (I was told if it's equal to the test line, count it) and today and my temp went up - not to the highest of this cycle, but I got up at 2 and for water since FI drank it all and temped at 5. Felt a dull ache on my left side this morning and it was right side last month. Feel free to CS in the link in my signature. Talked to FI about having a short LP and he said, "Don't worry, we'll get you knocked up!" and then proceeded to go do laundry for his 24 hour shift at work today. I love and hate that he is so calm about everything! I won't see him until Monday because he is leaving for his bachelor party right from work tomorrow morning.

We are exactly one month away from wedding day, so here's a pic from our engagement shoot and another one I made when we were a year out. It isn't the best one and I was too lazy to find the one without the watermark, but it's funny and even funnier when you see our faces! Had it not been for Zika, we would have started TTC last night and today, but we are still preventing. Can't wait! Seeing everyone's anniversaries come up in WTO and today's beautiful pics has me super excited!

R/R/CS: DH has a hip injury and kept saying it won't keep us from HIO for a few days. Then last night he made some comments about maybe not being able to and how it might make his hip worse. I get it, you're injured, but if we can't try this month just say that so I don't get my hopes up.

This was just a random picture our photographer took, I'm not sure why I love it so much, but I do!
I can't help myself and have to add a second
It stormed just after our ceremony, then cleared up again giving us this beautiful rainbow!! (she enhanced it just a tad but it really was so vibrant in person)
Sorry the pics are so huge, how do I make them smaller?!

CD:18.... Triggered with pregnyl two days ago but haven't seen a temp rise yet. O is probably today. I just figured I'd hang out in WTO until I saw a for sure sign. O can be 36-48 hrs after trigger and I am still In that window
WAYDTGKU: letrozole and pregnyl trigger
R/R/CS: none really..
GTKY:
@clover28 Before I scrolled down further, I thought your DH was grabbing your boob in your second picture. And I had a fleeting though of how jealous my DH would have been. He would have liked a picture like that lol.
@virginiaham Thank you!! Your chart looks really good! I'm thinking your body is getting back in the program!! Fx!
somehow I am still Oing around day 18 even with letrozole and pregnyl... Oh well.
