**Waiting to do Something**

Happy Monday!

Hope it's ok I brought this thread back. I have not seen it posted in a while and since I am benched for a few cycles, thought I would start it up again!

The Waiting to do Something thread will be posted once a week on Mondays for those of us who experience long, extended cycles. Some of us are going through medicated cycles, some of us are going through testing and some of us are just waiting...to do something! 

1. Cycle/month: 

2. CD: 

3. Medicated? 

4. What are you doing this cycle? 

5. What is pissing you off?! 

6. GTKY: If you won the lottery, what is the first thing you would do?

2. CD: 26

3. Medicated? Nope. Just benched after a miscarriage

4. What are you doing this cycle? Condoms. Stupid lame ass condoms. Sex is just so different with them.

5. What is pissing you off?! Condoms. Stupid lame ass condoms haha

6. GTKY: If you won the lottery, what is the first thing you would do? Pay off debt and then buy and house. Then pay off my families houses.

I hope I belong here...I got a BFN only Beta test today so no more 2ww and not waiting to O yet. Basically waiting for AF to show up after these suppositories wear off.

1. Cycle/month: 10/11

2. CD: 29/15dipui

3. Medicated? Yes, 50mg clomid, Ovidril trigger and progesterone

4. What are you doing this cycle? Another IUI. Same meds.

5. What is pissing you off?! BFFN!

6. GTKY: If you won the lottery, what is the first thing you would do? Give the money to my hubby....he's a financial planner...or else I'd spend it all on dumb shit!

Edit: @SpiltEndz‌ so sorry for your loss!

Well, I can't really follow the format, sorry! I am like 3 weeks post MMC. I am waiting for my surgery date ... August 12, 2014!!! I will have my myomectomy that date to remove 8 fibroids.

No medications at this time.

I am still waiting on my first period post MMC.

What is pissing me off? Nothing really... just really impatient.

First thing I'd do if I won the lottery, buy a new house and set money aside for my kids' college.

Really happy to see this thread! I feel like I belong here

1. Cycle/month: 1/2

2. CD: 45

3. Medicated? Nope. Body is apparently trying to recover after going off BCP.

4. What are you doing this cycle? ED or EOD BDing when hubby is not traveling. Also starting temping around CD30.

5. What is pissing you off?! If I had known my body would need time I would have gone off BCP sooner! Everyone, including my doctor, got this idea in my head that you are more fertile when you first go off the pill. So I'm pissed and also feeling pretty bummed about it all.

6. GTKY: If you won the lottery, what is the first thing you would do? Quit my job and travel! Then of course do good and responsible things with the money

I hope it's okay if I join. I'm not ttc after a loss or using any medication but I'm still waiting and so frustrated.

My body has always been unpredictable. I've been off bcp for almost two months now and have yet to have or period or even ovulate.(based on my last bfn HPT I'd say it's confirmed I have not ovulated on or before CD 36, and OPKs would say I haven't ovulated on or before day 41.

I'm temping now in an effort to catch ovulation. I have my annual appt with my gyno next week and I'll discuss with her but I think I'll wait until I hit 90 days before I'll do anything else.

It's to the point where I'm jealous of people who have their periods. Sad.

If I won the lottery I would, in order, payoff my mortgage, payoff our cars, set up a college investment fund for my daughter, then book a vacation for everyone in our extended families.

1. Cycle/month: I don't even know what to put here anymore!

2. CD: 70

3. Medicated? Just BCP

4. What are you doing this cycle? After my second D&C to remove retained tissue my Dr advised me to go on BCP for two cycles to give my lining a chance to build back up and for my uterus to heal. I'm on week 3 of the first pack.

5. What is pissing you off?! I started spotting again on Friday. I had 59 straight days of bleeding/spotting since my first D&C. It finally stopped and I had one whole week off, now it's back. Expecting AF to finally start this weekend after I'm done with this week's active pills.

6. GTKY: If you won the lottery, what is the first thing you would do? Pay off all debt/mortgages then go on vacation

Thanks for posting this @SpiltEndz!  I was actually looking for this last week. Sorry for you loss, and to you as well, @ImJessesGirl.

1. Cycle/month: 5(1A2L)/12

2. CD: 11 maybe? I am not really keeping track

3. Medicated? for the first time in a couple months, nope

4. What are you doing this cycle? nada.  I guess I am slightly benched after this past miscarriage, but we were planning on taking this month off anyway.  I need a mental break and my husband is traveling for work.  

5. What is pissing you off?!  My husband is in Scotland telling me about all the delicious food he ate, the gorgeous views and the good wine he drank.  I told him I took out the trash and got the bathroom cleaned and the monster had a meltdown because I made him a grilled cheese for lunch and not a PB&J.  *sigh*

6. GTKY: If you won the lottery, what is the first thing you would do? hop on a plane to Scotland, haha.  Seriously, I would pay off my student loans. God I hate them.

I am so so sorry you have to do another dose of misoprostal @LDubHawksFan
I had to use it for mine also, and it was so physically and emotionally draining. Hopefully it will take care of it though and you can get back to healing.

I am SO glad you made this. I have felt like such an outcast, not really sure where to post!
1. Cycle/month: 2/3

2. CD: 50

3. Medicated? Nope

4. What are you doing this cycle? Sex, sex, and more sex. Oh, and I'm peeing on all the things!

5. What is pissing you off?! Not knowing! Where is AF? Where is my BFP? Come on! This waiting is killing me!

6. GTKY: If you won the lottery, what is the first thing you would do? What just about everyone else would! Pay off my debts, help family, invest, buy new things!

Thanks @SpiltEndz‌. It's sucks so much. I thought as much as I bled for the last 11 days, there was no way I would still have anything left in there. I did two doses of it per the dr instructions the 1st time. I'm not looking forward to the crazy cramping and pain, but luckily I still have plenty of pain meds. I'm debating just doing the misoprostal tonight when I first get home to get it over with rather than waiting until Friday night. It's probably better to wait until I can just curl up for a weekend to recover again, but I feel like I just want to move forward and get it over with, you know?

I totally know. I'm not sure how far along you were or what your dosage was/is, but I was still very early along but for some reason my body wasn't clearing out properly so the dosage they gave me was less and the cramping/bleeding was less than many have experienced. Still uncomfortable, but maybe because its just a little clot or something remaining, it will be easier than last time?
I dont know if that's how it works, but I hope it is not too bad this time.

No, I totally get this. And when people tell me "you're so lucky" I want to punch them in the throat. Oh, am I?

garnetandgoldgrace

Glad to see this thread back. 

1. Cycle/month: 1/3

2. CD: 78  

3. Medicated? Yes, I am on my 8th day of Provera. Hopefully will start AF in the next few days and then it's off to get an HSG. wee.

4. What are you doing this cycle? Well... now that I am on Provera there is nothing we can do but wait on AF. However, before then I was temping, and having sex EOD and taking prenatals, etc. 

I am also taking time to focus on my health. I am trying to lose 7% of my body weight and see if that kick starts anything back up. We shall see. 

5. What is pissing you off?! My weight, honestly. 

6. GTKY: If you won the lottery, what is the first thing you would do?

I would pay off our debt, buy a house and quit my job. (if this were the million dollar lottery...) I would then travel to Germany with my husband. And buy a personal chef.
