Any thoughts about this cycle? We had good timing, but my temp already started dropping today at 9DPO, so idk. Maybe it'll go back up tomorrow and then I'll test.

Any questions? Nope

Rant/Rave? I am very happy to get back to our normal schedule this week. I homeschool, so having the kids at home every day is normal, but we were out of town for a bit and they've been on break from all their extracurriculars, so it's still been a lot of extra free time to try to fill.

GTKY: Do you play video games, and if so, what is your favorite type? I play mostly console games and I like RPGs. My favorites are the Final Fantasy games and the LEGO games.

@AmMcc12 I don’t even take prenatals honestly. I did when we were first TTC, but this time I’m waiting until a BFP.

My temp did go back up this morning, but then I tested and got a BFN. I was so nervous to test I felt like I was going to throw up lol. This was the first time in years that I tested knowing there was a real chance it could be positive. I’m only 10 DPO, so I’ll test again in a day or two if my temp stays up.

@AmMcc12 I take folic acid and will start baby aspirin next cycle but that's because of my history more than anything. 

AmMcc12

@britters314 10DPO is still early. All the things are crossed for you!

halfanewt

@britters314 good luck! 

@AmMcc12 prenatals with the methyl folate instead of folic acid for me. And an extra b-complex per doctor forever ago. Is it bad I can’t remember why?

What number are you trying for? #2

Month/Cycle? 2/? I've had three "periods" since December so not sure what to count lol

WTO/TWW? WTO

Ages of other child(ren)? 2, and I have 17 year old SDs

Any thoughts about this cycle? Just waiting for my cycle to hopefully even out. I'm on day 2 of this period so FX it gets closer to normal after this.

Any questions? Nope, I'm new! So just looking forward to getting to know everyone!

Rant/Rave? 

GTKY: Do you play video games, and if so, what is your favorite type?

Not really! I used to play in high school but now I mostly just read. MH plays a ton though. I'm sure he'd love if I'd play with him 😂

britters314

@bserena Are you just coming off of birth control recently?

bserena

@britters314 yes! So I'm sure that's why everything is wonky. I was on the mini pill. So at this point just hoping my cycle gets back to some sense of normalcy soon.

Ages of other child(ren)? 3

Any thoughts about this cycle? Double checking with my CMNP about starting right away. But right now just down.

Any questions? Eh?

Rant/Rave? I'm glad that I have this new boss. I don't think my last boss would have been understanding at all of my situation. 

GTKY: Do you play video games, and if so, what is your favorite type? Do I play video games LOL. Our christmas gift to our selves this year was a gaming PC to replace our dying PS4. Right now I mostly play minecraft and stardew valley, but I love RDR2, Zombies from COD, Boarderlands, Stellaris, etc.

bserena

@stashattack I do love Borderlands!

@bserena first cycles off birth control are so freaking weird. I read a lot while H plays video games, Mambo no understand the video games, I cannot make my fingers do the things. My son beats me in Mario Kart.

@stashattack Hello again! I'm a pretty heafy TTCAL after an older human was born!  I was encouraged to wait one cycle after my D&C but every provider is different. Also no Midwife would touch me with a 50 foot pole they see my history and giggle. No midwives for mambo, sads.
