Re: 2IF WEEKLY UPDATE****

  • DOR/Endo - Recovering from surgery having my tubes removed.  Will start up meds for my FET when AF shows next. 
    DS was a surprise a long time ago. 

    QOTW: What is your favorite holiday movie?  Hmmm not sure I really have one.  I know I used to love watching that one with Rudolph and there was the abominable snowman or something in it.  Or maybe Elf. Does that count? 



      


  • Loading the player...
  • DD#1, 5; DD#2 stillborn; DX: AMA, borderline MFI. 

    Just finishing my second medicated cycle. Spotting last 2 days which means AF is imminent. I am currently debating on whether to forge ahead with another medicated cycle or skip this one and wait until after holiday madness. 

    QOTW: Love all Christmas movies!!!! DH buys me a new one each year. He said he is running out of ideas :)


    BFP #1 12.24.07 - DD born @ 39w1d on 08.26.08
    BFP #2 08.04.11 - DD born still @ 37w3d on 03.25.12

    Lilypie Angel and Memorial tickers

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    TTC #3 since May 2012

    BFP #3 12.29.12 - CP @ 4w2d on 01.02.13
    BFP #4 10.17.13 - CP @ 4w2d on 10.23.13

    BFP #5 04.06.14 - MMC 05.07.14

    No longer trying to conceive.

  • DS is 4 and was apparently a wildly lucky miracle. Maybe MFI, but who the hell knows? My tests have been largely negative/normal. DH just has lousy morph that no one seems to make much of a fuss over except me.

    Cycle 36+ (it is getting too depressing to count so I don't make the effort anymore). We are continuing naturally, but if genetic testing says DS' autism wasn't necessarily caused by a genetic factor, then we may pursue IUI.

    QOTW: 3-way tie- Christmas Story, Christmas Vacation, and a new contender, Elf.

  • DD 10.5 months, conceived through IVF. Me-pcos and MFI....so basically eff'd. 

    Currently taking a holiday break, at least through Thanksgiving, depends on when our cycle would hit during Christmas if we will do one then. I am a high volume retail manager and stupid customers make me crazy enough, so if I were on medication I'm sure I would get fired.

    Favorite Christmas movie(s) would have to be Elf, Christmas Vacation, and I love love love Rudolf and Frosty. I bought LO a abominable snowman hat, it is so cute.

    DD -Natural surprise 6.5 years ago... 4 miscarriages and 1 additional suspected loss this cycle. (2 before DD, 2, possible 3 after DD) Currently unexplained IF. Total BS and im not buying it, SOMETHING is wrong, Why cant they just figure it out already and save me the fucking headache! 

    CD - 5, for the millionth time of TTC >:P Honestly, I could rip my hair out. I don't know weather I want to punch my husband in the balls, bitch slap my uterus or go OB hopping and give pregnant people dirty looks, these days! UGHHHHH

    As far as the holiday movie... Im being a total "Grinch" tonight,  so i'll go with that!

     

     

        
  • History: DX unexplained. Conceived DS after 2 1/2 years on our 3rd unmedicated IUI cycle. Currently going on 2 years TTC #2. Got pregnant last Thanksgiving on a break cycle, but that ended with a blighted ovum. 

    Current cycle - CD 10, triggered last night for IUI tomorrow morning.

    QOTW - Elf and The Holiday

    History: Loss at 10 weeks followed by DS, both easily conceived.  Have had LP issues since DS, and last cycle (cycle 15) was a whopping 8 day LP.

    Current Cycle:  CD 3 of cycle 16.  Trying fertility tea this month with at-home fertility accupressure and massage.

    QOTW: Depends on my mood I suppose but I'm a big fan of It's a Wonderful Life and Elf.

    Whoa.  What is up with my brain today?  I read that as "panty pirates" for some reason, and thought, wow, that sounds dirty.

  • @KC1212 I got some "pre-conception tea" from a brand called Herb Lore off of Amazon.  I've been drinking it for two days, and I enjoy the taste. It has red raspberry leaf, red clover, nettle, oatstraw, peppermint, chamomile, dandelion leaf, and alfalfa in it.  I've never tried red clover before and wanted to give it a try; apparently it works better in conjunction with red raspberry leaf, so I thought this tea might be worth a shot.  Plus I'm always cold and looking for non-caffeinated drinks to keep me warm as the weather gets colder.

    So, so far my review is positive because I like the taste and it keeps me warm. :)  If it has other positive impacts for me, I will give it a raving review in a couple of months!

    Cycle status: CD12 on 100 mg Clomid, no ovulation yet but starting the scheduled sex and trying to make it fun....


    QOTW: What is your favorite holiday movie ? 

    Classic: The original How the Grinch Stole Christmas which I guess isn't really a movie but I love it! Newer: The Nightmare Before Christmas.

  • DD: 2.5. MFI.

    Cycle status: CD17, natural following a CP. I have no idea if/when I ovulated. I used to have the most regular schedules in the world but the CP seems to have messed things up because I did OPKs day 11-16 and got zero positives :( So I am giving up on this month.

    Favorite holiday movie: A Christmas Story. F-R-A-G-I-L-E. It must be from Italy!
