    Month/Cycle: 1/1

    CD: 11

    WAYDTGKU: BBT, OPKs, CM

    R/R: I’m just super tired and jealous that my husband took today off after we flew to NY and back this weekend for a wedding. 

    CS/Q: is it normal for OPKs to go from light to dark and back to light over the course of a few days? I’m totally new to this so I don’t know. I have only had one where the test line was even close to being as dark as the control then it went right back to being super light. 

    @abjm0325 best of luck to you this afternoon!

    @bearmomma1 I’m so sorry for your loss and that yesterday was so tough for you.

    @abjm0325 Hope your appointment went well! Knowing there might be some answers or new plans is certainly encouraging.

    @bearmomma1 I'm so sorry. That does sound like a hard day.

    @iiirene hmm, that's interesting. I'm honestly not sure. I know other people have experienced that, but I don't know if that's the norm. I don't usually start my OPKs until CD 9 or 10 and then I usually O within a few days, but I wonder if there's a difference if you test longer.

    Month/Cycle:
    9/9

    CD: 9

    WAYDTGKU: BBT, OPKs, CM, clomid

    R/R: MH is leaving for a work thing on Sunday night so I'm a little concerned about timing. Normally I O no later than 14dpo (which would be Sunday), but I don't know if the clomid will affect that? Let's hope it's a little early so we can have good timing!

    CS/Q: Missed a day of temping cause we stayed over at MH parents house and I forgot my thermometer lolll but my temps feel less chaotic this cycle, so that's nice.

    *lurking from IF purgatory*
    @iiirene your question is a perfect one to ask either in the OPK question thread (pinned at the top of the board) or in our Questions/Chart Stalk thread. If you post your question in one of those places you'll likely get a wider range of eyes on it than you will here in the WTO daily forum!
    History
    I am doing this on my own. Left ovary and fallopian tube removed due to cyst/necrosis just after birth. Right ovary and tube still purport to function.
    Began TTC in Aug '18 @ age 35
    5 or 6 (or 7?!) cycles using frozen donor sperm, ICI. All BFN
    Mar-Jun '19 IUIs, all BFN
    Began process of referral for RE in spring of '19, blood tests confirm low AMH (.54) but all else is good.
    May '19 HSG shows open tube, but ultrasound suggests fibroids
    MRI in June '19 confirms two large fibroids, one growing through wall of uterus
    In June '19 I move from California to Oregon, disrupting my insurance, referrals, etc. 5 months spent piecing it all back together.
    Nov. '19 attempted myomectomy (vaginal approach) failed. 2nd surgery using laparoscopic method in Jan '20 is successful.
    April '20 --> June '20, natural IUIs, all BFN.
    July? saline ultrasound and bubble test demonstrate open tube
    July '20 clomid cycle cancelled for thin lining
    Aug-Oct, 3 femara cycles, all BFN
    RE referral. While waiting to set up an appointment Nov-Jan,I continue with natural cycles and ICI, using a known donor, BFN...
    Jan '21 more bloodwork, AMH is worse (.30), FSH high albeit not catastrophic at 13.2. hysteroscopy all good. "looks cozy!" says the RE.
    Feb '21, injectables (menopur, novarel), iui, BFN (doc said the frozen donor sperm sample had the "best numbers she'd ever seen!")
    Mar '21, injectables, iui cancelled due to lack of follicles, converted to at home-insem. BFN
    May '21, first IVF round cancelled due to cyst.
    July '21 IVF: standard antagonist. 225menupur/225gonal-f/cetrotide/5000u trigger, AFC 7; 6 days of stims. 8 eggs retrieved, 7 mature, 5 fertilize, 4 made it to blast. 3 are 4AB, 1 is 4BB. PGT-A results all abnormal.
    Oct '21 somewhat improved AMH (.51) and significantly improved FSH (8.9). Maybe it's all the pills I swallow.
    Dec -21, standard antagonist. 225menupur/225gonal-f/cetrotide/5000u trigger, AFC 5; 11 days of stims. retrieval yields 5, 4M, 2 reach day-6 blast (4AB & 4BB). 1 low-level mosaic (chr. 3 deletion), 1 complex abnormal.
    Feb '22 FET (low-level mosaic): CP.
    May '22 egg retrieval, lupron flare protocol. HGH priming for 1 month before stims; md lupron 20/20u daily; menopur 225, follistim 225, 10k trigger after 8 days of stims; AFC 10; 13 retrieved; 10 mature; 8 fertilized. All frozen at 2PN for later thaw, grow, and biopsy.
    July '22 egg retrieval same protocol: 9 days of stims; AFC 8; 10 retrieved, 8 mature, 4 fertilized and frozen.
    Sept '22 ER same protocol: AFC 10; 12 retrieved, 11 mature, 11 fertilized.
    From the 3 retrievals, 7 survived to day 5-6 blastocyst, from which I have 2 normal embryos!
    Jan 20, Fully medicated FET, baby aspirin, dexamethasone, acupuncture, and as much woo as I can stand (which isn't very much). BFN.
    July 23, Natural FET + baby aspirin. BFN.
