  • 1. Your Name or Screen Name ( not full names)  and State you are from
    WOLCOTTMOM, NJ

    2.   How long have you been TTC?  
    Just started this cycle, however I don't know that I'm ovulating or how long my cycles are since we recently had a lo.


    3.  Where are you in your cycle? If in the 2ww  when will you test? ( Waiting to O, 2WW etc)  2WW?  Maybe?  Again, I'm just trying to figure out what my body is doing right now.  

    4.  Experiencing any weird  "phantom" symptoms ladies in your 2ww?
    At this point everything seems weird since DH and I have not been super-active these days.  I do have cramps, body aches and I'm moody too - but I'm sure it's all in my head. ;)

    5.  How do you feel about this cycle? (Are you hopeful, anxious... etc)
    I would be VERY surprised if we got a BFP at this point.  I'm hopeful moving forward, but I plan to chart and temp in order to be more aware of my cycle length.


    QOTW:
    What are you doing for New Years?
    Bwahahahahaha.  We are going out for dinner at 6pm because it was the only reservation we could get.  My guess is that we will be snoring away by 10:30.  Boy how things have changed.  :)

    1. Your Name or Screen Name ( not full names)  and State you are from
    Soontobeshrader, Leanna from Virginia

    2.   How long have you been TTC?  
    Over a year. TTC naturally right now until OBGYN can "legally" refer us to the RE (Insurance wackiness).

    3.  Where are you in your cycle? If in the 2ww  when will you test? ( Waiting to O, 2WW etc)
    Technically we're in the 2ww, although I'm fairly certain I did not ovulate.

    4.  Experiencing any weird  "phantom" symptoms ladies in your 2ww?
    I'm having some light cramps but otherwise nothing big. I have tested 2x but BFN. 

    5.  How do you feel about this cycle? (Are you hopeful, anxious... etc)
    Not really hopeful. I started the provera on cd35. Might try temping/charting next month.

    QOTW:
    What are you doing for New Years?
    Like I posted on @BeckyP005 thread, bubbly and beer for me and DH. We also just talked about indulging in some steaks and lobster. Gotta kick 2013 out the door in style!

    What are you doing for New Years? We don't have any firm plans as of yet, but we will probably go to an early dinner and head back home.  We aren't big drinkers, but I'm feeling like a little cheap champagne might be fun tonight.

    5. Uncertain. I'm not at all sure how to proceed, when to seek medical advice, etc. I'm still in the final stages of weaning, so that might be all that's going on, but I had VERY irregular (as in 6-7 mo apart) periods prior to DD, so who knows when (if?) AF will show?

    5. Not much--snacks, drinks, and bed shortly after midnight. Woo!

    2.   How long have you been TTC?  This is baby number two, we have been TTC for four cycles
