TTC#_3 for me 1 for DH____  since __last Dec but took a 9 month break so cycle 1 of starting again__

CYCLE DAY  CD 8

WHAT ARE YOU DOING THIS CYCLE? (natural, meds, IVF, special tricks, etc)

not missing a day of BD...  

HOW ARE YOU FEELING? 

Glad we are finally at the point of our "practice" about to be "for real".  This cycle AF was just over 2 days... super short... but took Nuvaring out so not stressing too bad.  Just hoping that the constant BD hits O day... since I have no idea how long this cycle will be (I was a nice neat 28 days on BC)

QOTW:  What was the first live concert you ever went to?  What was the most recent? The first was definitely my dad... he's played in various bands all my life.  The first live concert in a big arena I think was AC/DC but may have been Poison.. I can't remember which came first.  Most recent- Cheryl Crow.

CYCLE DAY

2

WHAT ARE YOU DOING THIS CYCLE? (natural, meds, IVF, special tricks, etc)

Probably nothing.  I just got my CD 2 monitoring and I have FOUR residual follicles between 19 and 11 mm.

HOW ARE YOU FEELING? 

Pretty annoyed.  But maybe it will be good to give my body a break.  It really hasn't had a chance to settle into its natural un-messed with hormonal state since I got pregnant with DD two years ago.  Plus, I'm not really sure getting pregnant in my current state of health would be great anyway.  A  couple of months to work on it might be just the thing.

QOTW:  What was the first live concert you ever went to?  What was the most recent?

The Judybats, ~1993?  Most "recent" was Wilco--in 2002.  I need to get out more.

 We're on our own, chart temp, cp, cf

I'm feeling alright... we'll see how it goes

QOTW:  What was the first live concert you ever went to?  What was the most recent?

hah, First concert was Depeche Mode in ?1987 I think.  I had been to concerts with my mom but that was the first one with just me and a girlfriend.  Most recent... well it's been a while since a big one, but dh and I went to a local place for a date night in August and saw a guy/band Big Smo... it was hilarious and a fun evening out.

CYCLE DAY 22

WHAT ARE YOU DOING THIS CYCLE? (natural, meds, IVF, special tricks, etc)
same old same old. Getting ready for IUI #1 next month

HOW ARE YOU FEELING?
Concerned. I'll be shocked if AF doesn't show up next week

QOTW: What was the first live concert you ever went to? What was the most recent?

First live concert was Kool & the Gang when I was 9ish.
First concert I paid for was Skid Row & Suicidal Tendencies. (Jersey girl graduating HS in '91. \m/)
Most recent concert Mötley Crue about a month ago. A little nostalgia anyone?

CD12

WHAT ARE YOU DOING THIS CYCLE? (natural, meds, IVF, special tricks, etc)
Natural, BTT and seeing the OB/GYN 10/14 to start figuring out what's wonky

HOW ARE YOU FEELING?
Lousy, angry, annoyed. I've been tremendously stressed lately. I'm really emotionally drained from a lot going on (nephew had to go to the ER, BIL was in the hospital, financially struggling [that's an understatement], on top of the TTC)

QOTW:  What was the first live concert you ever went to?  What was the most recent?
Robert Palmer with Chaka Khan opening when I was 11. Two most recent Mighty, Mighty Bosstones/Dropkick Murphys  and The Root. Sadly, both of those were in 2007.

CYCLE DAY: n/a

WHAT ARE YOU DOING THIS CYCLE? (natural, meds, IVF, special tricks, etc) - Waiting on PP period, acupuncture to try to regulate low estrogen and progesterone, seeing an RE on the 16th. 

HOW ARE YOU FEELING? Frustrated that i put off the RE appt. I have been reading up again online and am getting scared off from the stats on conceiving over 40. 

QOTW:  What was the first live concert you ever went to?  What was the most recent? First concert was Steve Miller Band - ooooh so fun! Most recent was Get The Led Out, a Zepplin cover band. Sounds totally cheesy, and it kinda was, but was also so much fun. It was at Red Rocks. I think any band at Red Rocks would be amazing.

CYCLE DAY #24

WHAT ARE YOU DOING THIS CYCLE? (natural, meds, IVF, special tricks, etc)

IVF#1 converted to IUI#1

HOW ARE YOU FEELING?  Trying to remain hopeful

QOTW:  What was the first live concert you ever went to?  What was the most recent?

1st live was INXS, following by Talking Heads the following night.  Most recent was Kenny Chesney on the Atlantic City beach a couple of years ago, I think.  What a difference between first and last!!!

Special shout out to @JimBobCooter, who has posted her last Fab 40s Friday post.  I shall take over from here.  And she is taking applications for the golden walker from this group...  Give us your age so she can pass the prestigious award on!!!

Just have to say this week's QOTW is amazing. We're all so darn old that the first concerts we saw are taking me back to bands/music I haven't thought about in years! Kool & The Gang?! Skid Row?! Chaka Chan?! INXS?! Love them all. haha 

I agree we should add our ages in to the check ins so we can pass the Golden Walker along... I'm 39, will be 40 in February. 

Teenie16

I know @lucyspeople‌ so many bands I wish I got to see. Never got to see INXS. So bummed about that.

I'm 40.... 41 in 12 days :-(

41 (and a half) here.

TTC# 2 since 9/2013

CYCLE DAY: CD14... not sure if I ovulated or not yet. I usually do OPK's starting CD10 but due to us being in the hospital with DS (he's okay) I wasn't able to start until CD12. My temps are higher (this morning was 97.73) but not as high as they usually get after O. So I'm unsure if/when I O'd.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING THIS CYCLE? (natural, meds, IVF, special tricks, etc): Non-medicated - moving on to IVF next cycle

HOW ARE YOU FEELING? Okay. Kinda annoyed we might have missed our window this month as it's our last "natural" month, but it was out of my control unfortunately

QOTW:  What was the first live concert you ever went to?  What was the most recent? First concert: Kenny Rogers... my mom dragged me as my stepfather and she had a fight that night. First concert I attended by choice: Madonna! Last concert: Guster way back in 2011! I used to go to a million concerts and I miss that part of my life!
