Hi Ladies!

Hope you are all in good spirits. On CD17 waiting for ovulation. Getting a little worried since my LP has consistently been 28 days for almost a year now, so I'm not sure what's going on or rather what's not going on.

Christmas was good. Nothing big planned for New Year's Eve, might just pop some champagne with the hubby.

hi @Cheetara2‌! Thanks for starting the check-in.

Things here are going well so far. I have been off work since my surgery (sick leave then vacatoin for the holidays) and it looks like I'm set to ovulate in the next couple of days. While I feel like ovulating is taking forever, it's because I've been off, so the TWW should fly as I will be swamped at work. Luckily my body (thus far) seems to be cooperating. Because my uterus was clear at the hysteroscopy, the OB emphasized the importance of hopefully getting pregnant quickly, before the fibroid grows back. It's pretty stress inducing, but I'm downplaying it for H as he gets nervous.

@LauraO11 I'm glad surgery went well for you and everything looks clear. I really hope this is it for you. We might be in the TWW together, so here's to not going BSC through it   8-}

Hi everyone!

I had an EDD of March 13th 2015, but sadly I had an ectopic that was discovered at 7 weeks. Unfortunately I had told my immediate family at 6 weeks and a week later had to share the devastating news.

I was told I had to wait 3 cycles to TTC again, and in October me and my husband started to try again. I was concerned the methotrexate I took was causing me to not ovulate. My OBGYN finally took blood last month and told me everything looks "good" to him, although sometimes I don't think it is. Past few months have been really hard on me emotionally, especially with the BFNs I keep getting ontop of the constant pregnany announcements all over facebook. I am currently 6 dpo and keep feeling more crampy then usual, but I keep telling myself to stop fixating on symptoms. This cycle seems a bit different though, as I spotted a lot on my O day and then 3 days after and have had slight cramping ever since.

Cheetara2

Sorry for your loss and welcome! BFNs are like slaps in the face for me. GL this cycle.

Hello all! I'm sorry for your loss @Puglife83‌ the pregnancy announcements/prego updates on facebook are the absolute worst! I would have deleted mine by now if I didn't use it to stay in touch with far away family.

AFM I'm 12 dpo and I felt like this cycle might be the one up until today. I am having slight cramping which I usually get right before AF. Good news is my cycles are back to normal length and not super short.

I'm glad the holidays were during my TWW because I haven't really been obsessing as much as usual! My Christmas was great and I enjoyed spending it with my family. I hosted my first holiday in our new house and that was fun. Otherwise I'm now working on putting in new flooring and my DH hasn't put down the remote of our new TV.

Hey ladies! I'm hanging in just waiting for AF to show. Even though we won't know if my surgery was a success until I have a mid-cycle ultrasound, I'm freaking out about AF showing soon because if she shows by 1/2 I can plan for a Feb FET if AF is late then we're looking at March . Just another thing to worry about!

((Hugs)) to those who need them!!

Cheetara2

@kcrkcs I hope you and your hubby will find some sexy time despite the busy schedules.

@bansel92813 I'm glad your cycles are back to normal. It's not over 'til the fat lady shows up.

@frenchteachermamaI hope AF shows up soon so that you can have a Feb transfer.

Hello ladies, hope you don't mind if I jump in.

I intro'd on the main board a week or so ago, any way my SO and I miscarried back on Labor Day, our EDD was March 18. Currently we are NTNP. I'm hoping that will change soon though, I'm ready to be actively trying.

Any way christmas sucked! I hate the holidays. SO is on a rig this week so nothing on New Years either. Boo!

Cheetara2

@mholmes92 Sorry for your loss. Welcome! Sorry about the holidays
