Re: ~*~June Check-In~*~

  • @rmpar29 - thanks for the check in friend.  Hope you are well.  How are things going for you?

    AFM - Weekend with friends was good.  Consumed too much food and alcohol.  Was trying to be good, but a surprise BFP announcement caught me off guard and I went a little cray cray.  We also ate at an all you can eat buffet on Sunday for brunch... oops.  :-)  The 2WW is going ok... DH is totally optimistic and I'm not feeling optimistic.  At this point I'm just hoping that AF shows later than planned so that next month isn't totally screwed up with my work travel.  We shall see what happens.  My inlaws are going to be in town this weekend so that could get interesting if AF comes...

    Well I think my TWW is quickly coming to an end.  I've been feeling super hungry and crampy for a couple of days now, so I'm convinced AF is coming very soon and my LP is going to be maybe 8 days or so.  We have camping plans this weekend, and I am so not looking forward to a heavy post-loss AF while camping.  Ugh.

    No call about the blood work yet.  I didn't think about it much over the long weekend but now that I'm back at work, my phone is going to be glued to me as I wait for the call.

    QOTW:  We only have basic cable, so I mostly stick to shows on Netflix and Amazon Prime.  While slightly embarrassing to admit, the show I'm most looking forward to starting up soon is Vampire Diaries.  They left things with a hell of a cliffhanger last season!

    @rmpar29, how are you doing?  Just a partial pack of BC staring you down now, right?  How goes the renovation since last week?

    @MrsG80inTN, I'm glad to hear you had a good weekend, aside from the surprise BFP announcement of course.  Being blindsided by pregnancy announcements depress me like no other.  Do you plan on testing or do you prefer to wait until AF is late?  I am a bit of a pee-pusher by nature but I promise to be good if you like waiting. :)

  • @cheesypeas - Sorry that you think AF is coming... I wouldn't want to camp with AF either - she's not a good camping buddy.  

    I'm not sure when I will test... Because of the trigger shot I probably need to wait till 12 DPtrigger... not sure though.

  • Hey ladies!

    @MrsG80inTN - I never tested out my trigger, but I think it's usually gone by 10DPO.  I would wait until 12DPO to make sure though.  You don't want to see a BFP and have it not really be one.  I'm so sorry for the BFP announcement and I can't blame you at all for having a couple more drinks and some comfort food.  Huge (((((HUGS)))))) lady!

    @CheesyPeas - I'm so sorry that it feels like AF is coming and with such a short LP.  I hope that you are crampy and hungry for a different reason.  I agree though, she's not a good camping buddy, so maybe she will hold off for a couple days...I hope. 

    AFM: We had a pretty good trip.  AF came Saturday morning, so I had my own vaca buddy to contend with.  We were so busy that I hardly noticed.  Yes, one cycle is down and one left per my doctor's orders.  I'm not sure if we will TTA a little longer though.  DH is working towards a promotion and also has to work extra hours at his second job until they hire someone, so TTC would be very stressful and take time that he just doesn't have.  We may hold off for another month or so until things quiet down.  I don't know. 

    The reno project hasn't moved with us being gone all weekend.  DH has to fix his truck this week so we can go get stuff this weekend.

  • Well I got the bloodwork results back and I now have a referral to a hematologist.  I actually feel comfort in this fact.  Even though it's obviously not good to have blood clotting disorders that put my babies at risk as well as my own health, I have more confidence that additional steps going forward will allow me to bring home a baby.  I'm not sure yet what the hematologist will recommend and if I have more bloodwork in my future, but I guess I'll find out after my appointment next week.

  • @CheesyPeas - I'm sorry that you have to see a hematologist, but I'm glad that there could be a reason for your losses, and something that is (from my understanding from the other ladies on the board) can be helped.  What day is your appointment next week?

  • @rmpar29, my appointment is on Tuesday afternoon, so I should have an update at the next check in.  I really didn't think I could get in to see a specialist in under a week, so I'm feeling pretty pumped about that.

  • Hi Ladies,

    Sorry for such a late response. My week has been pretty busy.
    We did get the puppy and his name is Hobbes. ( I added a pic below, just because he is too cute not to share) I also began classes this week which is getting in the way of me spending my time here..lol
    As for ttc, I am still so bumbed that last cycle was not it for us. It hit me very hard, especially as I have watched so many lovely ladies graduate and I am still here.  I know 6 cycles is nothing to bitch about, since many ladies have been ttc for years, but it still weighs heavy on me. Since my schedule has been a bit crazy with the new pup and school, I am really hoping  I can keep up with temping. I am not O'ing anytime soon, which sucks. FF is showing the 3rd week of september. We shall see I guess.


     QOTW: September brings a new tv lineup.  What shows are you patiently awaiting the return of?  What new shows have you seen that you want to check out?
    ---Greys Anatomy!!!!


    @CheesyPeas -- I am sorry to hear that AF might be showing. Hugs! GL at the appt.

    @MrsG80inTN -- FX for you!

    @rmpar29 -- Thanks for the check-in! Yay for almost being off the bench! GL with the reno.



    Hobbes at 10 Weeks. He LOVES car rides.

  • @CheesyPeas - My thoughts will be with you!!!

    @kittymeowbark - I don't think it matters how long you've been trying, BFN hit you hard every month!  Many, many (((((HUGS)))) and I'm sorry that you are struggling.  I hope that your adorable puppy helps to pull you out of your dark place.  Do you put your thermometer in a good place so you see it when you first wake up?  That's the only way I remember to temp every month.  What are you taking classes for?  I hope this next week goes better and you are able to recover from your disappointment.
