Re: ****TTCAL Weekly Check-in September 19th****

  • 2. Status (WTO, TWW, Benched, etc.): TWW but BFN today on 10 DPO of my usual 11 day LP. Not out yet due to a small temp spike, but not super hopeful. 

    3. Rants/raves: Rant- Why are AF and pregancy symptoms so similar? They make me more crazy every month than I should be. 

    4. GTKY: In honor of the Emmys last night, tell us what TV shows you are most excited about coming back. Any new shows you can't wait to watch?
    I'm very excited for The Walking Dead to come back in October. I know it was a mess the last season until the last few eps, but I've been invested since the beginning so I feel obligated to watch. 
  • 2. Status (WTO, TWW, Benched, etc.):
    I am in the TWW I guess, still during my fertile days and trying to have good timing when BD.

    3. Rants/raves:
    It's a holiday here in Chile, so an extra day to rest (and BD) is always welcome!

    4. GTKY: In honor of the Emmys last night, tell us what TV shows you are most excited about coming back. Any new shows you can't wait to watch?
    we are catching up with Game of Thrones, we started watching this year from the beginning and we are so caught !!! Currently on season 5.
    Other shows that I love: Big Bang theory, Call the Midwife (is there another season coming?), Gilmore girls (movies coming up on Netflix!), Master of None...

    I started watching crazy ex girlfriend on the plane from Buenos Aires and I really like it! Now I have to find out where is it on....

  • 2. Status (WTO, TWW, Benched, etc.):
    WTO follicle scan Wednesday and IUI Friday most likely 

    3. Rants/raves: worried I'm going to O early. Had a ton of EWCM this morning which seems really early for me by CP form and closed so fx it holds off and we can get the IUI

    4. GTKY: In honor of the Emmys last night, tell us what TV shows you are most excited about coming back. Any new shows you can't wait to watch?

    GoT but that's forever away. Modern family and you're the worst are probably the only others I watch regularly

  • 2. Status (WTO, TWW, Benched, etc.): TWW, 10 dpIUI, holding out to test on Wednesday AM before beta. No symptoms, not even my usual progesterone side effects seem to be that significant right now. I've had a lot of crazy dreams, but other than that, zero. Not holding onto much hope. (Of course, I will still be devastated if BFN.)

    3. Rants/raves: My kitchen is starting to look like a kitchen again! DH is seriously impressive - not only is he creative, he has the skill to make his designs a reality. It's going to look so good when it's done.

    Also, I think I am going to be 2-0 in both of my Fantasy leagues despite some poor choices this weekend.

    4. GTKY: In honor of the Emmys last night, tell us what TV shows you are most excited about coming back. Any new shows you can't wait to watch? Truthfully, I watch a lot of television - more than I should. Most excited about Grey's Anatomy (still a fan after all these years) returning and for new shows, I plan to check out This is Us and maybe The Good Place (which keeps surprising me with good reviews). I also want to catch a new show called Atlanta, Donald Glover's new program on FX that sounds really interesting.

    @yolandamunoz I also love Big Bang Theory. It comes back on tonight here in the States - do you have to wait or will it start there around the same time?

    @szwill86 My DH is a huge fan of The Walking Dead, but I usually read or zone out on a game while he watches. I just can't get into it! One cool thing about it being filmed in Georgia is that I know a few folks who have played extras in the show. Seems like a lot of fun!

  • @DungeonTrollMel I had a lot of extra CM right before my follicle scan, but it was still perfect timing, so hopefully yours is too! You've probably already said, but can you remind me why they're having you move to IUI when DH's sample wasn't a problem? Hopefully you will also get a RX for some BD in addition to the IUI so it's not totally scientific! :)

  • 2. Status. IUI today. Hoping my lining has thickened. My nurse is going to do an u/s today to check before the IUI. DH is on his was way to the clinic now to drop off his sample. In his words it's not cool asking a man pushing 40 to provide a gold standard sample at 6 am. At least we can still see the humor in all of this and keep it light.  

    3. Rant. Just my lining issue. I'm really confused by it. I get full AF ever month and it's never been an issue before. I'm so scared there is some scar tissue in my uterus. If so that another procedure I have to have. One thing at a time I guess. I started RAspberry leaf tea and the estrogen pills over the weekend so hopefully it helped. Rave. My nurse at the RE office is amazing. She's been extremely supportive. It makes such a difference 

    4. GTKY. I'm looking forward to Homeland coming back. All my other shows like Game of Thrones, and  Bloodline, are way off next year and Bloodline was cancelled. Also House of Cards ( I love that show)!

  • 2. Status (WTO, TWW, Benched, etc.):  TWW.  I had a weird 1 degree temp jump today and I don't know what to make of it.

    3. Rants/raves:  Not really a lot.  The TWW feels like forever...especially when I am going off of having a 35 day cycle.  I looked back at the last cycle I got a BFP and I waited to POAS until CD36.  The only difference is that last time, I waited to call my dr's office because if it was a CP, they wouldn't do anything.  This time, they want me coming in CD35 if I haven't started a period.

    4. GTKY: In honor of the Emmys last night, tell us what TV shows you are most excited about coming back. Any new shows you can't wait to watch?

    @szwill86 we can't wait for The Walking Dead either!  
    We also watch Games of Thrones (obviously April is far away), Scandal, Modern Family.  I am sure I am missing one or two.  I also am going to start This Is Us on Tuesday.  

    @fivetimesnoluck FX for you on Wednesday!
  • @fivetimesnoluck because we had two follicles and a perfect BD schedule with no success our RE wanted to move to an IUI. He doesn't want us getting burnt out emotionally and financially on something that didn't work. He told us the IUI should double our chances and we are all for progressing when something different work. We also have a 3 clomid round limit before moving on to IVF so we want to be as aggressive as possible to make the most of them

  • @DungeonTrollMel gotcha. That makes sense. I like to understand what the different justifications are for prescribing IUI. I am grateful that your doctor has both physical and mental well being in mind as they treat you!

  • 2. Status (WTO, TWW, Benched, etc.):
    TWW and 10dpo and waiting until  AF due to test so I don't drive myself even more crazy.

    3. Rants/raves: I'm ready for fall, summer was just too hot and sticky lol and also have a new location at work and really over cleaning it and prepping it for when it opens. It's a new restaurant but we are hoping it will open with no hitches as money is tight these days as a result!

    4. GTKY: In honor of the Emmys last night, tell us what TV shows you are most excited about coming back. Any new shows you can't wait to watch? I can't wait for the blacklist to come back. I'm a big James Spader  fan :D
  • 1. Introduce yourself (if you're new): Not new, but was away for a few weeks for vacation and I see some new people. I am Jennifer and am 32 yo. I had a MC in October 2015 and a second one June/July 2016. 2. Status (WTO, TWW, Benched, etc.): CD 9. WTO. 3. Rants/raves: Vacation was good. Only had one major crying depression episode on the flight to Florida (listening to a baby cry in the last row for half an hour took it's toll on me). The rest of the trip was pretty good and I think I managed to make it out of FL without getting any mosquito bites! 4. GTKY: In honor of the Emmys last night, tell us what TV shows you are most excited about coming back. Any new shows you can't wait to watch? Grimm Outlander, although like Game of Thrones, it is so far away! I know I'm missing more, but I'm totally blanking right now. @fivetimesnoluck Congrats on the kitchen going well! I’m super excited for you guys! I’m also excited for Grey’s Anatomy.

  • @dpjennifer I forgot about grimm!
  • 2. Status (WTO, TWW, Benched, etc.): Tech TWW... tomorrow is CD29 (usually 28-30 day cycles here) and if AF does not show up tomorrow morning I will be POAS.

    3. Rants/raves: Been a bit frustrated with being a stepmom this week. I feel like I'm always the last one in the loop when it comes to our stepdaughter, but I always have to go along with the decision anyway. I do all the hard work of being a mom to this kid (the homework help, the laundry, driving her to camp all summer, knowing where everything she misplaces is- just mom type stuff), but I'm not her mom and never will be. As someone struggling TTC, it's really hard to keep going through the motions but not having the reward. I never get the 'I love you Mom' when she goes to sleep. I don't know. It's a different kind of love. I love her and care for her, but I don't have that connection I feel like I would have to a child I raised. She's been living with us full time since she was six, but that's still six years of really important development I missed out on, and we just don't have the bond I thought we would.

    4. GTKY: In honor of the Emmys last night, tell us what TV shows you are most excited about coming back. Any new shows you can't wait to watch?

    I'm excited for the new show, This is Us. I also like Big Bang Theory, the Walking Dead, Modern Family, and I'm looking forward to Life in Pieces returning.
  • Omg big bang theory too lol
  • Omg I also love Modern Family yay!!! I watch it on Netflix. Here it comes on fox play on cable.

    hey @fivetimesnoluck it airs here on Warner channel on cable so I think we have to wait a bit.... 

    On GOT im catching up to finishing 5th season I just don't want it to be over and then have to wait till April!

    @tscalei yes!! I watched GG again a few months ago. And I don't think crazy ex GF is in souhamerican Netflix. Better go check!!!

  • 2.)  CD 29, 11DPO- 3 BFNs in a row.

    3.) R/R I'm honestly not too upset about this BFN. We only tried once and I'm not sure I was quite ready to be pregnant yet. Full speed ahead to October!

    DH is VERY sick and he never gets sick. He has the Influenza A/pneumonia  He's had a temperature over 101 for 4 days now, so I'm really worried. Obviously, his health is my biggest concern, but the thought did cross my mind that this high temperature is not going to help his swimmers. My next FW should be in 3 weeks. Anyone know is that enough time to mend? Also, would it increase our chance of abnormal chromosomes? As always, I'm much more concerned about bad egg/sperm than anything else. 

    4.) GTKY: I love hearing about everyone else's shows. I'm also super excited about Greys, Big Bang Theory, and Modern Family. I'm going to try out that new show about the family with a child with cerebral palsy and Atlanta as well.

  • @sftobktoyvr glad to hear things with you and DH took a turn for the positive! Hopefully it continues on that path  :)
  • @SFtoBKtoYVR great things are better! I find men is finicky and often times I want to drop kick DH, and choke hold him or something! Lol
  • So glad to hear things are better@SFtoBKtoYVR!
  • 1. Introduce yourself (if you're new): not new but recap ttc #2, ectopic discovered in february. ttcal since May.

    2. Status (WTO, TWW, Benched, etc.): WTO CD 11

    3. Rants/raves: My rave is that i'm actually succeeding in mentally relaxing this month with ttcal. I have been so obsessed the past few months and so let down when I'm not ku that I decided, for real this time, to try to just relax and live life not constantly thinking about where i am in my cycle, what my cd is, what my cm is doing, planning bd, peeing on everything i can find, it's been exhausting. DH is on the day shift now so I'm hoping to have a more natural bd plan instead of a forcing quickies before he goes to work the midnight shift. I'm still temping and will do opk later in the week but I'm not nearly as obsessive as I was previous months. hopefully I can continue this throughout the rest of my cycle. that will be the hard part for sure. 

    4. GTKY: In honor of the Emmys last night, tell us what TV shows you are most excited about coming back. Any new shows you can't wait to watch?  I'm so bad with tv show, almost everything I watch I happen to catch on while flipping around or watch on dvr.

  • @szwill86 Sorry for the BFN. Hopefully tomorrow brings you better news.

    @yolandamunoz You and I have very similar TV tastes. I love Big Bang Theory and cannot wait for the new Gilmore Girls movies. I know what I'm doing the day after Thanksgiving in the US - screw shopping! 

    @DungeonTrollMel - fingers crossed that your ovaries cooperate! 

    @fivetimesnoluck I'm glad your kitchen is coming together. I'm addicted to house renovation shows (Property Brothers, anyone?), so I love a good kitchen reno. It's so helpful that your H is handy. Mine.... Not so much :)

    @roxgibbons I hope your lining is just a one-off thing. I'm so sorry it seems to be one thing after another for you. Here's hoping you get a good break soon!

    @dpjennifer Glad to see you back! I was wondering where you were and hoping everything was OK. I'm glad your vacation was fun. And woohoo for no mosquito bites! Also, we've just started watching Outlander, but since I haven't been living completely under a rock the last few years, I know about the MC/stillbirth storyline. How traumatic was that to watch? It's making me hesitant to move to Season 2.

    @chloe97 oh no! I'm sorry your H is sick. Hopefully you don't get the flu too. All I know about sperm issues is that sperm take 2.5 to 3 months to mature/develop. So I'd say chances are that you'd be fine the next couple months at least. Also, I think it mostly affects motility and count, but some of the ladies here dealing with MFI probably know way more than me.

    @sftobktoyvr I'm glad things with your H are better. Talk of separation always sucks.

    As for me:

    1. Not new, but I see new names. 33 yo. 2 MCs (Dec 15 and Apr 16).

    2. Benched.

    3. I finally got off my ass and went to get my blood drawn today to retest APS antibodies and my TSH. I was a major slacker on this, but we'll see what the results are. I'm hoping everything is normal, but I'm feeling calm about being able to deal with whatever the result is. H and I talked a lot about TTCAL on Friday (well, I mostly talked and H mostly chimed in... But I think he likes to let me get things off my chest since I tend to bottle things up). I think we may try to get an RE consult in November after all his job applications are in. Looks like we'll be benched until December - I can't decide how I feel about this. Part of me is enjoying the break, and it's nice to start to feel like myself again. The other part of me is sad that it means I won't have a baby by the time my first EDD rolls around again. Ugh.

    4. Love Big Bang Theory. I also watch a lot of HGTV. Beyond that, H and I tend to watch streaming shows. I've been rewatching Friends and Gilmore Girls. I tend to gravitate towards lighter and fluffier shows, and H loves dark, gruesome, and cynical (House of Cards, Daredevil, Jessica Jones).
  • @szwill86 I think the same thing every month! PMS and early pg symptoms being similar is a big cruel joke! Fx for you still <3

    @yolandamunoz hooray for a long weekend and extra BDing :)

    @DungeonTrollMel hoping O holds off so you can get the IUI! I might give You're The Worst a try if you like it (it's on shomi and I wondered if it's any good)

    @fivetimesnoluck hoping that no symptoms is a symptom ;) And awesome about your kitchen!  Ooo if BBT is on tonight in US maybe I'll download it tomorrow. It's not on Canadian channels until Thursday I think?

    @roxgibbons lol at H's comment :D FX for you and hoping your lining isn't an issue. Keep us updated!

    @Aera11 fx for you! We are also TWD fans :)

    @MimoCa fx for you, too and GL waiting to test! I also love fall, but winter can wait, please :) GL with the restaurant opening!

    @TScalei glad you can find a little positive in waiting. Hugs to you <3

    @dpjennifer happy your vacation was mostly good

    @E2theB eeee FX for you! Will check in for an update tomorrow :) Sorry about your struggles being a stepmom :/ Oooo I also love Life In Pieces!!

    @chloe97 sorry your H is sick and hoping it doesn't have any ill effects on his sperm

    @SFtoBKtoYVR sooo happy to hear things are taking a positive turn for you and your H and I hope this last cycle is the one for you <3

    @brooklyngirl18 glad you're feeling more relaxed this cycle :)

  • @fivetimesnoluck - FX for good news on Wednesday!

    @chloe97 - That is scary. I hope his temperature goes down and he is feeling better soon.

    @SFtoBKtoYVR - I am glad you and DH are working things out.


    2. Status: Benched. MMC on 9/1. I got a prescription on Friday that I was going to take tonight so I would miscarry tomorrow. Ironically, I started spotting this morning and mild cramps. I don't know if that means I should or should not use the prescription tonight. Waiting for a response from my OB.

    3. Rant:I am looking forward to having some closure. I should be 10 weeks today and it really sucks that I am not.
    Rave: My DH has been very loving and support. He is excited to try again.

    4. GTKY: I didn't even know the Emmy's were on. I love Blacklist and Criminal Minds. I also loved Stranger Things on Netflix, but I rarely watch T.V.

  • @newmommycoop - glad it finally seems to be starting for you.
  • @E2theB I can't wait for This Is Us. They sucked me in with the commercials for sure. 

    @NewMommyCoop I hope this is over for you soon, whether your body takes care of this naturally or you take the medication. It's such a horrendous process and you're in my thoughts. 

    1.  I'm new to this group, first loss on Thursday at 6 weeks 3 days. 

    2. WTO I hope... I still haven't actually spoken to my doctor, only other doctors and nurses giving lab results and I probably won't see her until my numbers get to <5. But from what research I've done, I'm hoping we can start TTC right away. I'm clinging to that hope right now. What has everyone else's experience been (although I realize we are all different and this won't change my own situation)? 

    3. My HCG went from 2600 to 800 in less than 48 hrs. I guess my body really didn't want to be pregnant anymore. 

    4. GTKY: we just got hooked on New Girl via Netflix and are totally obsessed. I text H random New Girl gifs throughout the day because at least it makes us smile!

    Oh @NewMommyCoop i almost  Forget about the Stranger Things. I loved the show and I watched it on a weekend I think!

     I must say I also watch some other type of shows with my DH, like House of Cards, the Blacklist... He likes some super hero ones, we liked Jessica Jones a lot! 

    Any of you guys watched "Love" on Netflix? I think it was great, I hope they make a new season!

  • @hartmich - Thank you. My OB just replied and said take the medication as planned to speed the process along. I am AMA and time is a huge factor for me. My OB said we can try after my first AF. I asked if we could try before and she said the main reason not to was because of dating, but she said that is not an issue anymore. She still recommends waiting until after AF so the body has a chance to shed the lining before conception.
    Welcome to the group and I'm sorry you find yourself here. The community here is great and a huge support.

  • Status (WTO, TWW, Benched, etc.):  TWW 13 dpo. I am holding out until tomorrow to test..nerves are all over the place. I am feeling some mild cramping/pressure like I felt last time and my dreams have been super vivid and strange. Last night I felt so nauseated I couldn't fall asleep, hence I am exhausted today. I think I am symptom seeking hardcore. 

    3. Rants/raves: My husband is seriously the bomb.com. Last week was really rough for me (appt where we were supposed to heart the heartbeat for the first time + all our family in town + work stress) and he rocked out being supportive. ALSO...this week will officially be Autumn and I could not be more pumped about it. 

    4. GTKY: In honor of the Emmys last night, tell us what TV shows you are most excited about coming back. Any new shows you can't wait to watch? ....I don't watch a lot of TV, but I love Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D, Arrow, The Flash, etc. I just usually binge-watch it when it hits Netflix. 

    @RiverSong15 ---- I <3 Gilmore Girls. Are you excited for the reboot to hit Netflix?

    @waitingforblueskies I'm so pumped for the reboot! I keep reading all the hints and "spoilers" they've been releasing. I need more Lorelai in my life! I'm really curious who Rory ends up pairing off with. I never liked Jess, so I really hope she doesn't end up with him. But that seems to be an unpopular opinion on the Internet, so who knows? I'm planning to binge-watch over the holiday weekend though. What are you looking forward to seeing in the reboot?
  • @RiverSong15  I am so pumped to see Lorelai and Luke happy...AND if they are not, I will lose it. 

    I am excited for fast talking, sarcastic, strong women. I am excited to know if Rory ended up with someone. I hated all the "potential" men rather equally, although I did like Jess more in the end when she went to see him and he was working for the publishing company/published his book. He grew up a lot from the jerk hole that he was originally. .Dean became more of a jerk as time went on and Logan was just too "Gilmore-approved" for me.

  • So sorry to see you here @hartmich, I remember you graduating from TTGP and I think we both have black pugs? I'm so saddened you're going through this <3 I think most doctors say to wait at least one cycle after mc but as PP said, that is often for dating purposes. For my first loss at my 10wk u/s when there was no longer anything to see on the scan, I was told "the good news" is you can start trying again right away (which was definitely worded terribly). So as you said, it's different for everyone and each doctor even seems to say different things....there are ladies here whose doctors have said one thing but OB have said another. I think part of it will definitely come down to how you are feeling physically and mentally <3

    @yolandamunoz I really enjoyed Love on Netflix!! And you all have me wanting to watch Gilmore Girls from the beginning now :)


  • @fivetimesnoluck I totally get the whole fantasy football thing this week.

    1. Introduce yourself (if you're new): Not new, but for those who are. I have had 2 mmc, both ending in D&C, with a 3rd D&C to remove retained tissue and a fibroid.

    2. Status (WTO, TWW, Benched, etc.): Just when I think I am back in the game, I get benched again :'( ... Had my 3 week f/u with OB after having the hysteroscopy/fibroid removal and he wants us to wait one more cycle. He had originally said we needed to wait until I got my next AF... apparently this is not the case. Needless to say I am less than thrilled since I thought I was WTO with the hopes TTC this month.  Has anyone experienced anything similar (hysteroscopy or fibroid removal)? How long were you told to wait?

    3. Rants/raves: See above. Also my fantasy football team did not do so hot this week, hopefully next week I pick better starters.

    4. GTKY: In honor of the Emmys last night, tell us what TV shows you are most excited about coming back. Any new shows you can't wait to watch?
     
    I had no idea the Emmy's were last night, I was too busy watching the Packers play horribly... Hopefully they do better next week.
    Otherwise I have recently become addicted to Last Man Standing and my guilty pleasure show is Scream Queens.

    2. Status (WTO, TWW, Benched, etc.): TWW

    3. Rants/raves: I feel like literally everyone on EARTH is pregnant right now. *Trigger Warning*
    Some very weird acquaintances of ours just found out they are expecting again and their daughter is about 3 months old and she was breastfeeding and this is their fourth child between the two of them. Another couple we know just had their first baby at 21 and 22 years of age, and broke up 8 days after the baby was born. I am in the throws of "it's just not fair-itis" right now and trying to stay positive that this will be our month. *End of trigger warning* 

    4. GTKY: In honor of the Emmys last night, tell us what TV shows you are most excited about coming back. Any new shows you can't wait to watch? I'm still wading through Grey's Anatomy LOL ...
