Do you have any relevant appointments upcoming? July see my OB
QOTW: When did you decide you were ready to TTCAL and why? We were desperate to fill our empty arms so we started trying as soon as we were given the green light (6 weeks pp). Now, I am able to seperate this baby from Ana. I very much want to have a living child and am willing to risk the fear and anxiety to bring home a rainbow,
Open Topic. What is on your mind this week?Miss my girl...I got pregnant in late june with her, so we're approaching that time again. Would be weird to have a similar due date with our rainbow, but that wont prevent us from trying.
Well, I guess I'm going to join in on the TTCAL journey again!
Where are you in your TTCAL journey? cd 22/3dpo
Do you have any relevant appointments upcoming? Nope
QOTW: When did you decide you were ready to TTCAL and why? We have been discussing it since March when we officially got the go ahead to try again, but we both needed a bit more time. Now we're ready and we're going full tilt with temping/charting...and lots of bding.
Open Topic. What is on your mind this week? Just busy, busy, busy. Though the sadness of losing Micah is never out of my mind, it no longer consumes me. I think about him every day and say a little goodnight to him when his candle goes out each night, but I am often able to do so with the comfort that he is in good hands and watching over us.
Married August 20th, 2005 to the love of my life.
1st BFP August 6th, 2010. Missed MC discovered at 13 weeks.

Where are you in your TTCAL journey? First cycle TTC since our loss. CD 11. Just got a flashing smiley on my ClearBlue OPK this morning, so approaching O. I don't temp, so no definites.
Do you have any relevant appointments upcoming? Nope. My OB said to be in touch when we have "news," so just waiting.
QOTW: When did you decide you were ready to TTCAL and why? We started as soon as we were medically cleared. I miss my baby desperately and I know I can't bring her back, but I just feel like I need a baby to love.
Open Topic. What is on your mind this week? Counting down the days until June and summer vacation (I'm a teacher). 21 school days left, which feels unbearably long right now. Regretting all those snow days now!!

BFP #2 - 6/10/14 Hoping for our rainbow baby due February 2015
Where are you in your TTCAL journey? CD 4. No such luck with catching my rainbow last week. I was not prepared for how depressing it can be with each negative you get I find myself consumed with the worry that we might not be able to get pregnant (even though we have not had problems before).
Do you have any relevant appointments upcoming? Nope.
QOTW: When did you decide you were ready to TTCAL and why? We started as soon as my pp bleeding stopped and we were medically cleared. This will be our third cycle TTC since the loss of our sweet Christopher.
Open Topic. What is on your mind this week? Try and relax and enjoy myself (maybe even have a glass of wine)! My next ovulation date should be the weekend of June 7/8.
qotw: each time we've started when we were medically cleared (once we waited an extra month)...we were just ready to have our rainbow. I do think I wasn't really ready after my late loss so soon (4 months) but now I am very ready.
what's on your mind? ughhhhhhh....so frustrated. I've not been getting positive opks the past two cycles but have had us confirmation that I have ovulated on or before cd14...so this cycle I decided to start testing on cd7...I still have not gotten a positive, which I know I still have time to get but I feel like maybe i am getting like a super early O like maybe on cd6-7 and I have been missing my window each month because I am literally still on my period for o. I am afraid to ask the RE nurse about it because I think they already think I am crazy but I just want to cry thinking that we may already be out this cycle and that my body is being crazy. I do have 24 day cyles typically...does anyone know if it would be unheard of to ovulate that early??? or am i just being psycho? I literally could kick something right now I am so frustrated. sorry for the rant.

QOTW: When did you decide you were ready to TTCAL and why? a couple of weeks after we lost our son. I guess it felt ok to be trying so soon because we had always planned on trying relatively soon after Q was born, so it wasn't a huge change in plans, maybe just a couple of months.
Open Topic. What is on your mind this week? I am debating whether or not to do Clomid this month. We are going on a big trip (20+ hours on a plane each way) the beginning of July, and if I got pregnant this month I would be about 5 weeks, which would make me nervous while we are gone. On the other hand, I want nothing more than to be pregnant again, so I hate to not try as hard as possible every month. We would still try either way, but chances of me getting pregnant naturally are slim to none.

I think it's possible, although really uncommon to O that early. Not sure though.

Have you consideref temping? Would be helpful to pinpoint O
@shandorfml2 I've considered it but I'm not ready for that commitment lol. We got pregnant last time without even using OPK so I'm hoping it won't be a long process this time either. If I go a few months without conceiving I'll reconsider it. I'm pretty sure MH will think I'm crazy though.
