Hi ladies!  ((hugs)) to anyone that needs them this week....

Where are you in your TTCAL journey?

cycle 2 AL CD 6

Do you Have any relevant appts. upcoming?

Progesterone draw on the 24th

QOTW:Honestly at this point I just want my rainbow...I really could care less the day.  I liked that Bunny was due in April so I guess I will say spring but I really don't care.

Open Topic:I am just really stressed.  DH has some sort of rash that the dr.s are guessing is an allergic reaction.  We have not bd'd in 2 weeks...I am so stressed that it is going to mess with our FW or the meds he is taking are going to affect him.  I wish I could just let go and know that what will happen will happen but I am so freaking stressed.  The dermatologist took a culture and we should know soon what it is but it is driving me crazy that it won't go away.

Where are you in your TTCAL journey? 

We have decided we are ready to actively try again. We have an appt on the 18th with my RE. 

QOTW: In a perfect world, if you could choose the month/season that your rainbow baby was born, what would you choose and why? 

I would like the spring, to be honest. The spring symbolizes new beginnings, and a rainbow would definitely be that.

Open Topic. What is on your mind this week?

Hoping our next IVF is successful, and wondering how long I'll be riding the crazy train of infertility.

Just started BCP to start FET in April (Conner and Benjamin's c-section date would have been in April).  I am terrified.  
Do you have any relevant appointments upcoming?
I just had one today for water sono to check my uterus.  I hated every second of it.  I hated going to the IVF office knowing that the last time I was there, I was being "discharged" at ten weeks and released to my OB.  I hate that my nurse, who I loved, isn't there anymore.  I hated that the nurse who had me today didn't bother to check my history and had no idea what happened to my boys. 
QOTW: In a perfect world, if you could choose the month/season that your rainbow baby was born, what would you choose and why?
Honestly.. I don't care. I used to want a summer baby, but now I just don't want another January baby.  We have me, my mom, brother, aunt, grandma, and two cousins in January.  Conner and Benjamin were also born in January.  If I am ever blessed with another baby, I hope that they are born in a less "crowded" month... I also now associated January with my two angel babies and I want it just for them. 
Open Topic. What is on your mind this week?

Why why why am I starting FET?  I am seriously considering waiting another couple months now.. it was going back to that office that did it to me.  I don't think I am ready (but then again.. one month, one year, ten years... will I ever really be ready?).

Where are you in your TTCAL journey?  11dpo

Do you have any relevant appointments upcoming? nope

QOTW: In a perfect world, if you could choose the month/season that your rainbow baby was born, what would you choose and why?  Oct, not only because that's when the baby would be born if I was pregnant this time (I'd be induced at 37 weeks, near halloween). It's my favorite month

Open Topic. What is on your mind this week?I want to be pregnant. I'm grumpy today. I tested, BFN...but I didn't get a pos with my daughter until 14dpo. So, I guess there is still hope...I had a big temp drop, but then it went up today. I just don't like the MF. Last cycle my LP was 11 days...so I was kinda expecting my period today. So, I just want to know one way or another!

Where are you in your TTCAL journey? Trying to get started again with an FET

Do you have any relevant appointments upcoming? I saw my RE last week and it didn't go well. I have to have a hysteroscopy because they think there might be retained tissue left. That's Friday, a week from today.

QOTW: In a perfect world, if you could choose the month/season that your rainbow baby was born, what would you choose and why? Honestly as others have said I could care less when my rainbow came to me. However, after this last winter it would be very nice to have a winter baby so that I could be on maternity leave and not have to deal with driving in this icky weather.

Open Topic. What is on your mind this week? Just nervous about my upcoming hysteroscopy , I don't like being put under anesthesia.

marylaurena  I hope DH feels better and his issues don't affect his swimmers. I agree though it is hard to relax.

diamante1181   I hope your appointment goes well.  

ikrystal  Maybe it was overwhelming because it was your first appointment back after being discharged?  I hope you are feeling better though.  I do agree I think there is always a little doubt that things will be ok.
shandorfml2  The days before testing sure can be frustrating.  Sending prays your way!!
kflynn81  I hope your hysteroscopy goes well.  That would be very nerve wrecking.
Where are you in your TTCAL journey?
Starting fourth month. Awaiting O this week.
Do you have any relevant appointments upcoming?
Saw my OB on Thursday, such drama. But everything seems to be sorted now. Back to the grind.
QOTW: In a perfect world, if you could choose the month/season that your rainbow baby was born, what would you choose and why?
Summer. Almost all of our family have winter birthdays.  It would be nice to celebrate when it is warm outside.
Open Topic. What is on your mind this week?

Frustrated about the OB's office.  Frustrated about the nurses, I'm still debating maybe going to a new OB. But I just don't want to have to re tell my case over and over again.  I don't know.   

I am also starting the Whole 30 cleanse. I'm excited and nervous about that.  Its going to be rough but I'm sure I can handle it.
