M/C: 5/3

CD: 49

WAYDTGKU:


R/R: DH slept through his alarm and didn't wake up until his carpool was outside. So he told everyone he has a stomach bug and is staying home with me I still have to work and he'll be playing the new Zelda all day, but at least I'll have some company for once!

CS/Q: Another fun temp plummet this morning! Is it O? Is it AF? Is my body just messing with me again?


GTKY: I have one tattoo behind my ear. It's the stars from the Harry Potter books. That series meant so much to me as a kid and I absolutely adore my tiny tribute. I have this amazing b/w floral thigh piece created in my mind, but it'll probably never happen. Whomp.

50Wife

@LoveInDC  get the thigh tattoo, girl!!!  I wish I had the balls to do something big!


M/C: 9/10 (the double digits hurts) 

CD: CDmotherfucking1

WAYDTGKU: not enough I guess. 

R/R: I'm obviously in a mood today. I am not happy or hopeful to say the least. 
I'm calling my OB today just to start a discussion about making sure nothing is wrong. Have any of you ladies done this? Did you just schedule a dr appt and just sit and talk to your doc?

CS/Q: nada 

GTKY: Let's talk tattoos! Do you have any? How many? Special meaning? Do you want any? 
I have two. I was young when I got them so nothing to write home about. 
I want to get another one on my wrist of my son's birthday in Roman numerals or just the first letter of his name 

Dilynne

Morning ladies! Sorry I've been MIA lately. This new job is kicking my butt but I'll try to get better at keeping up! 

M/C: 13 - I missed the rollover

CD: 12

WAYDTGKU: All the things plus Metformin and Vitamin D. 

R/R: I got zero sleep last night and I woke up this morning to my kitten having unplugged my phone some time in the night so I currently have 7%. Send help lol

CS/Q:

GTKY: Let's talk tattoos! Do you have any? How many? Special meaning? Do you want any?

I have a couple but I have a ton more in mind. The next one on my list is a Stay Gold tattoo. The Outsiders is my favourite book and movie and it just really spoke to me as a kid. 

Cricket648

@LoveInDC Sorry about your temps, but yay for having some company today!

M/C: 1/1 NTNP

CD: 16 

WAYDTGKU: BBT, CM, PNV's, Vitex

R/R: I procrastinated a little too much, and now present me is definitely not happy with past me. 

CS/Q: Nope

GTKY: Let's talk tattoos! Do you have any? How many? Special meaning? Do you want any? I have 3 tattoos. One is a cricket on my wrist, becasue cricket was a nickname that I went by for years. I have a bird on my hip, and a tree with some fairies all down my side. I just got those becasue I wanted to, no special meaning.  

BertieMeetsGertie

@50Wife just saw that were on the same month/cycle. Hugs, friend. This TTC shit sucks. Regarding your question, my dr won't start testing until the year mark. That being said, I have HMO insurance so they tend to be more strict about things. It never hurts to ask! And if you're over 35, then I especially say go for it! 

@Dilynne  I mean kittens are cute, but damn! That's just mean. 

M/C: 9/10

CD: 13

WAYDTGKU: pnv, temping, opk, checking cm/cp 

R/R: I'm really sick of this weather we have been having! One day it's 70, then next it's 40, and now they are taking about snow this weekend! 

CS/Q: I had a negative opk yesterday morning but a positive last night. I though O would be today, but my temp went up a lot last night. It's weird to me that I would have O'd yesterday, especially since my opk wasn't positive until the evening. Oh well, timing was fine either way. 

GTKY: Let's talk tattoos! Do you have any? How many? Special meaning? Do you want any?
nope. 

cdnrunning

Be back later this morning to respond.

M/C: 5/3

CD: 23 ho hum

WAYDTGKU: HIO EOD, pnv, bbt

R/R: trying to be patient. I keep playing with FF to possibly predict O. Yep, crazy woman here.

CS/Q: nope

GTKY: Let's talk tattoos! Do you have any? How many? Special meaning? Do you want any?

None. Am I the only one??

50Wife

@BertieMeetsGertie it sucks. And I have people saying "it just isn't the right time yet". Stop. Just shut the f up with that. Hopefully you'll get good news soon! 
Thank you for the response. I'm not 35 yet but some of the fab ladies on this board recently told me they've read to bring it up after 6 months of good timing. I figure it won't hurt to at least have a chat and see if there's any concern or if I just have shit luck.  

Everycol0r

@50Wife sorry about CD1

ETA: chances are high your OB is going to do 2 things: 1. Blood tests that will have be repeated at an REs office and 2. Offer clomid. 

Deny both, go a head and schedule an RE app

Cricket648

@50Wife Sorry about CD 1! I am by no means an expert, and I am only speaking from personal experience, but if you have a reason to believe there might be a problem, I think they will begin looking at testing at 6 months of good timing. For example, my doctor told me that if it doesn't happen after 6 months, she would want to start testing because my cycles are so long/irregular. I'm sure it depends on your doctor somewhat though. 

LoveInDC

@50Wife Hugs for CD1! For my OB, we did what's called a "preconception" appointment. I did it because I needed to interview her, but if you need it to talk about TTC and future testing, go for it! (I wish I had the guts for that thigh piece. Sigh. Maybe some day.) ETA: If she wants to do any testing, save it for an RE. But if you just want to chat about what else you could be doing, if they see any warning signs in your history, or if they think you should see an RE sooner, that's what to call that appointment.

@Dilynne Oof. I hate when my phone is dead for the day. Bad kitty! I adore literary tattoos (duh) I'm sure yours will be a masterpiece

@Cricket648 Ugh. I hate when past-LoveInDC ruins it for present and future LoveInDC. That girl can be such a bitch. FX it all works out.

@BertieMeetsGertie I have a love hate relationship with this weather. Mostly love, but when I heard 70 today and snow on Friday? No bueno.

@cdnrunning FX we both get out of these hell cycles soon!

BertieMeetsGertie

@50Wife yeah, we don't need those kinds of people in our lives. We didn't ask for their unsolicited "relax" or "it's not the right time" bullshit. If my DH and I started TTC, now is the right f'n time! Sorry, rant over. 

50Wife

@Everycol0r @Cricket648  thank you for the responses. 
I think my main  thing is that to me, I'm "normal" but is that really what's normal, ya know? If I can even talk to the nurse and she says sorry it's just bad luck, everything sounds normal...then fine I guess I'll wait two more months.

WAYDTGKU: pnv, bbt, opk, cm, HIO EOD 

R/R: I'm just ready for nicer weather. I miss the sun. I also had a rough day with my boss yesterday so really don't want to be at work today. Only 9.5 hours left...

CS/Q: Started temping this morning so no questions (yet)!

GTKY: Let's talk tattoos! Do you have any? How many? Special meaning? Do you want any? I have 2. The one on my butt is a matching "friendship tattoo" with my bff from college! hahaha

@50Wife sorry for CD1 
@Dilynne my job is kicking my butt too! Here's to hoping the week ends better than it started! 

Cricket648

@50Wife That sounds really frustrating! I understand why you would want to talk to your doctor about it. I'm definitely a planner, so talking to someone would at least make me feel like I have a plan. FX that you get your BFP in the next two months, and you don't have to worry about it!

No but I would like to get one in memory of my mother.

R/R: It's been a long week already and it's only Tuesday... 
CS/Q:
GTKY: I have one small heart tattoo on my right foot that a girlfriend and I both got one drunken night in College. Really stupid to do drunk I know, but it is cute and the inner rebellious side of me is glad I did it. I would actually like to get another small one on my other foot, something running related (scripture, quote, etc..). Running has changed my life over the last 4 years and running a marathon was the best soul searching I've ever done.

I only suggest it because some RE's have 2 month or more wait for new patients.

M/C: TTA/NTNP 

CD: 21

WAYDTGKU: PNV, BBT

R/R: I keep hitting a wall at like 7:30/8pm at night and usually I end up falling asleep on the couch.  This is not helping the fact I have work to do and a house to clean.  I need to find something to wake my butt up in the afternoons!  @LoveInDC - signed up for Stictch Fix yesterday and i'm super excited for my first box!  It is supposed to come before my anniversary so I'm hoping for something to wear to dinner!  I think DH is tired of all my boring clothes.

CS/Q: Nopeeee

GTKY: Let's talk tattoos! Do you have any? How many? Special meaning? Do you want any?
Technically I have one - it wraps from my left shoulder, down the left half of my back, and then down to the middle of my thigh.  My shoulder is stars and auras, my back is an underwater aquatic scene, and my thigh is a huge octopus with tentacles down my leg.  I kinda like tattoos.  I plan on starting my 3/4 left arm sleeve next

@50Wife - So sorry for double digits and CD1 *Hugs*

@BertieMeetsGertie - This weather is bogus.   A week (or two) ago, we had a day where it was 70, and then the NEXT day we got ~2in of snow.  I think mother nature is bipolar

@cdnrunning - I so hope your cycle "normalizes" soon too.  Mine just keep getting longerr and longerrr

starla

*TW*

I'm still getting back into this and TWW board. I'm sorry I'm not commenting as much right now.

@50Wife Sorry for CD1 and that people are jerks. I think sometimes people think they're being helpful by giving "advice" and they don't realize that they're being insensitive.

M/C: 7/5 (1/1 AL)

CD: ?

WAYDTGKU: Waiting

R/R: I was going to cross-post between here and the TTA/Benched thread, but it's kind of a shit show right now. Also, I want to get right into it as soon as possible and participating here feels like I'm doing something proactive.

CS/Q: 

GTKY: Let's talk tattoos! Do you have any? How many? Special meaning? Do you want any?
I have a small star and moon tattoo on my hip that I got when I was like 17. Honestly, I forget it's there half the time. By the way, you're not supposed to get new tattoos while TTC.

Cricket648

@Everycol0r Wow, 2 months! I had no idea it could take that long. Thank you for sharing! 

@cdnrunning @DeriveMyPi Long cycles are the worst. FX for both of you to O soon!

WAYDTGKU: all things on our own

R/R: very + OPK this morning but CM is only marginally fertile. meh. we had a beautiful double rainbow last night... it made me hopeful.

CS/Q: nope

GTKY: Let's talk tattoos! Do you have any? How many? Special meaning? Do you want any? yes, 2. One is a sun on my moon. the other is a water lilly as a memorial to my grandparents. its actually a photo DH took.  I'd love to get more, probably a memorial for our loss.

@50wife sorry for CD1
@BertieMeetsGertie hooray for O!
@starla girl post where ever you want! hugs

R/R: Moana comes out today, and I'm sending my husband to the mall to pick up the pre order. 

CS/Q: Not sure when to go over to 2WW as I'm pretty sure I O'd but I have no confirmation except its the regular time, FF said I'm in my window still so I guess I'll wait a few more days.

GTKY: Let's talk tattoos! Do you have any? Yes How many? 1 Special meaning? Not really Do you want any? Yes I want 1 more at least, with my kids names on it.

WAYDTGKU: PNV, BBT, RRL 

R/R: I accidentally punched my DH in the face this morning when we were sleeping   It was one of those weird things where we were both rolling over at the same time and well.. I'm not really totally sure what happened because I was half asleep. It resulted in me missing my temp though. In other news the offer we made on a house got countered but we think it's still too high. So onto more house hunting. 

CS/Q: Nope, just waiting for CD16-17 to roll around. 

GTKY: Let's talk tattoos! Do you have any? How many? Special meaning? Do you want any?
Ugh, yes. lol I have a really cliche tramp stamp  The only positive thing is I don't see it very often and I did actually design it vs just picking it out of a book. So there is that. 

@50Wife I'm so sorry about CD1 
@BertieMeetsGertie Yuck, snow in March is rough. I don't miss that at all! 
@cdnrunning Responding to your question yesterday, the market we are looking in is actually a buyers market right now... particularly in our price point so luickily we have a lot to choose from we are just picky. 
@Starla I feel the same way which is why I post here even though I am TTA. It makes me feel like I'm doing something and apart of the group more. 

starla

@JJMNO1616 That's hilarious you punched him by accident! Hope it wasn't too hard. haha I'm sorry the house didn't work out, but you will get one eventually! GL!

@50wife, the other ladies have given great advice on seeing your OB before the year mark.  I have mixed feelings about the helpfulness of a preconception appt based purely on my anecdotal experience.  It might not be the worst idea of you have reasonable expectations going into it, but as @Everycol0rsaid, any testing done will almost certainly be redone by an RE if you get to that stage.  However, you can potentially get some helpful info and having some testing done more than once isn't the worst thing (an SA for example).

Without going to into my twisty series of MD appts, I had a meeting with my OB before what she considered the 1 yr mark. I only went in because a different MD (not in a reproductive speciality) raised concerns about my cycle variation and the length of time we had been TTC. I thought my OB appt raised some good points, but she also spent a large chunk of timing explaining the female cycle to me, most of which I already knew, so that was a waste, and because I had made my own assumptions about our core problem and she didn't push starting testing (remember, she didn't consider it a year) I sort of ignored some of her suggestions.  I wish I hadn't, but c'est la vie.  

The downside of the appt is that she wrote off the 7 months we were ntnp and didn't count them toward the year, so we waited to go to the RE. When we finally got to the RE, she told us that had been a waste of time - no protection is no protection, how much effort you put into tracking is not relevant. I can't really blame her for that too much though, I was in denial about there being a problem - she just validated my decision to stick my head in the sand for a few more months.

After that novel, the bottom line is an RE is an RE and an OB is just not. Their jobs are different. Imo, talking to your OB if you think it will help you in some way, whether physically or mentally is fine, but otherwise it's sort of a waste.

Edit: I am having tag issues today.

WAYDTGKU: Advanced OPKS, EOD/ED HIO, quit smoking, I'm going to start eating better, like waaaaay better this week. 

R/R: Based on last month, I should be getting a flashy smiley face OPK right now, but I'm not getting anything. Hmm, I'll just keep testing.  I got such a. Good nights sleep last night and I am so ready to rock the EFF out of this Tuesday!  And my housekeepers are coming today not a moment too soon. Great day so far. 

CS/Q: I don't think so 

GTKY: Let's talk tattoos! Do you have any? How many? Special meaning? Do you want any?
Ive got 2. One on my back - yes, the infamous tramp stamp. Is so ugly but I don't really care about getting it removed. Maybe the size of an apple - a cetacea of dolphins. The dolphins are all smoothed and lame. Such a great tattoo for 18 year old me though. 
I love my second. I got it when my husband (then boyfriend) and I broke up for about 10 months in our twenties. I really wanted to symbolize being on my own and this new chapter in my life. It's on the underside of my forearm - a lotus flower. It has so much color and it's really lovely.  It was the first time I'd ever done something like that on my own (without friends or anything) and I'm so happy I did.  Haha and my then boyfriend and I were still kind of seeing each other and I remember he really loved it at the time too. 

fyi - I am always mobile bumping, so please excuse typos, etc. I am so bad at typing on my phone. 

Alsp, sorry to those who are having a rough WTO. and a special shout out to you guys who are TTA for various reasons. Post as little or as much as you want. Sometimes I have to take breaks myself

WAYDTGKU: will start all the stuff soon. AF lasted a full 7 days this month for the first time since coming off the pill a year and a half ago 

R/R: Busy day today including HSG so I have to P&G. Will be back later though. 

CS/Q: nope

GTKY: Let's talk tattoos! Do you have any? How many? Special meaning? Do you want any? 
Not even one. Not really my thing I guess.

@50Wife I have said before I wish I had started testing earlier. The process of testing itself takes a couple months for most. How useful your OB will be depends on how comfortable/ knowledgeable they are about IF but most can at least start some basic testing. Hopefully if they are not comfortable they will send you to an RE

Edit: I am having tag issues today.

Yes to all this. 

The level of care my uterus recieves is upgraded dramatically at my RE's office. And my RE says the same NTNP = valid. 

A previous OB I shall never see again ordered my first HSG. It was the most traumatic and painful experience ever. So much so that when my RE re-ordered one 3 years later I practically cried in his office despite his assurances that the experience would be dramatically different. It was, because the 2nd round involved nurses/doctors who did multiple HSGs daily vs the radiologist department at the hospital that OB sent me to that probably did 1 weekly. 

@LadyMillil waited 6+ months to get in to see an RE. It's not uncommon and depends how many are available in your area. My big city has an astronomical amount and I waited a little over a month. Smaller cities with one 1-2 doctors will wait longer. 

wabash15

@safire3 GL with your HSG today!

@LoveInDC My fiance is also playing Zelda all day today, but he's being a spoil sport and bragging that he got the Master Sword before me.

@Dilynne I've been there, my cat used to get behind my bed and knock cords loose on her way through. I'd get to work and wonder why my phone was at 20%.

M/C: 12 cycles, 7 TTCAL

CD: 7 

WAYDTGKU: PNV, BBT, OPK, preseed, avoiding caffeine

R/R: Today is the first Tuesday of the month so it's wing day in the office! 

CS/Q: A week into this cycle, and it looks like my temps may be fluctuating normally this time. For at least two months FF was telling me they were too erratic. Hoping they stay normal.

GTKY: Let's talk tattoos! Do you have any? How many? Special meaning? Do you want any? I don't have any tattoos, but I have been considering getting one. I'd like to get one that is symbolic of being a Gemini and put it on my back or side. The only problem is I'm a wimp when it comes to pain, and I wonder if I could even sit still long enough for a tattoo like that.

dragonette505

LoveInDC fingers crossed this is finally o!
50Wife  Ugh... I had my hopes up for you last cycle. Yes, you can and should have sit downs with your doc from time to time... It is really helpful to talk to your doc about your situation with your pants on in an office (as opposed to the usual during an u/s) And if you want, just say you have been trying for a year. In my case, my OB was an RE so it was an easy transition.
Dilynne Aww, cant believe your kitty sabotaged your battery! lol.. so cute!
Cricket648 Your tattoos sound so cute!
BertieMeetsGertie I'm in NYC and our weather is exactly like that! It was so hot an muggy on the subway this morning, some poor girl passed out!. But its supposed to be freezing with snow flurries in a day or two
cdnrunning I have several fertility apps and I use one to play with temps...lol not that that will make O happen, but I guess we cant help ourselves Also... I don't have any tattoos either!
MrsMiller8588 ugh... boss trouble sucks! You have to come in the next day and still work with them
Stargazer>lily that's a sweet tattoo idea. I always wanted to get one to symbolize my family
hoosiermama1 I think nowadays they don't let you get tattooed drunk lol but hearts sound cute
Starla I think we all have moments when its hard to be on here.... no need to apologize (ps... your cartman had me crying!! lol)
wabash15 I once saw a double rainbow around the moon (it even made the local news) and it was amazing. Hope yours is a good sign!!
JJMNO1616  lol on "accidentally" hitting your DH... jk.... ive done something like that before what with husbands, cats and dogs in my bed, things get chaotic

CandyApple2012

@JJMNO1616 Bummer that you didn't like their counteroffer - did you feel like it was THE house or are you pretty comfortable with moving on? I get emotionally attached to houses so I'm not a healthy house hunter, lol.

@Rejufsovelem I am SO excited to see Moana. Disney Princesses are my jam and I've heard really good things. 

@DeriveMyPi & @LoveInDC  You guys, I want to do Stitch Fix so badly. I have a whole pinterest board dedicated to it. Ugh. Money should grow on trees. LOL. 

@50Wife So sorry for CD1. I was rooting for you. Hopefully you have success this cycle and the RE becomes moot. I hope you'll treat yourself to something a little special today.

WAYDTGKU:The normal things. Trying evening primrose and preseed this cycle. Stupid EWCM.

R/R: Rant: I left my lunch at home and I'm hungry. Rave: Having a productive morning so far.

CS/Q: TMI: I used to have horrendous periods, which is actually why I started BC as a 17 year old. When I was 21 I had a blood clot and was switched from hormonal (estrogen) BC to mirena where I had NO period for almost 8 years. Now it seems that things are pretty mild -- 1 heavy day, 1 medium, 2 light.... Is that normal? It certainly wasn't my normal but I don't know if things get more manageable as you age. 

GTKY: Let's talk tattoos! Do you have any? How many? Special meaning? Do you want any?
I have a little one on my foot because my bff and I were heading to separate states for college. I forget about it most of the time, but it does make me smile. 

shortstack930

@safire3 good luck with your HSG today!

@50Wife when I hit the one year mark I made an appointment with my midwife. She did all the CD3 blood work, sent DH for a SA, and sent me for an HSG. Once we got all normal results back I decided to make an RE appointment because I felt the midwife couldn't do much more for us. The good thing in my case is that the midwife and RE are part of the same hospital system so they probably won't make me repeat anything other than the SA since they have access to my results in the same computer system and I actually had the HSG done at the Women's Center where the RE office is. However, when I called to make my RE appointment, the earliest I could get was 2 months out. So maybe make an RE appointment and in the meanwhile see your OB? Good luck!

WAYDTGKU: bbt, pnv, OPK, evening primrose oil

R/R: got a good night's sleep last night and doing some shopping at Target today!

GTKY: Let's talk tattoos! Do you have any? How many? Special meaning? Do you want any? Yes! I have a music note on my shoulder. I sang for years in high school, did choir and musicals and even took private lessons. I actually intended to go to college for music/theatre but I switched majors. I want to get a tattoo of my wedding date on my wrist and something for DD but I might wait until I'm done having kids and get one tattoo for all of them.

R/R: n/a

CS/Q: This hasn't been a consistent cycle for my temping, but I think my "high" temp on CD 9 is what's throwing me off. I mean, it wasn't really high but I was super toasty and I think that's why it's making my chart look funky

GTKY: Let's talk tattoos! Do you have any? How many? Special meaning? Do you want any?
I don't have any, but I have 5 or 6 that I'd love to get. Probably never will though lol
lily and tulip- for me and my mom on left hip (like where a holster would lay)
m16 and wrench crossed- for my dad on right hip (same holster thing)

Thanks for all of the advice, ladies! I have an appointment with my OB on Tuesday. I'll see how that meeting is and obviously  go from there. 
I have no problem taking matters into my own hands and making appointments if she's not helpful. 
I figured an appointment for DH for a SA is a quick and easy test to at least rule that out or get working on it.

@CandyApple2012 It's the nicest house we have seen overall. It checks almost all of our must haves but there are still a few cons. We are just really early in the process (our current lease doesn't end until June). So we have time to see what else pops up. The obvious problem is not finding something we like more! But, that's a risk we feel comfortable taking if it means we don't end up over paying for a house. Especially because it's not "perfect".

By the way, you're not supposed to get new tattoos while TTC.

Ugh stuck in the box! You're absolutely right, you aren't supposed to get tattoo's while TTC. You know what's even worse? my former coworker who was 7-8 months pg, and very clearly showing, who got a tattoo. while pg.... wt-actual-f?! Who does that!
