This is a place for those of us who have already started TTC, but have started infertility testing and/or treatments. You can express your thoughts, feelings, and frustrations on infertility. TTC can be a long journey naturally, then add in the difficulties associated with infertility, and it becomes a whole new ballgame. The road to infertility can be lonely, frustrating, and complicated, so let's make this a place where we can vent, ask questions, and support one another. Feel free to resurrect this thread at any point in the week if you have something to say. Treat this as an ongoing conversation.

GTKY: Did you watch the Superbowl yesterday? Do you care?
Re: IF testing & treatment w/o 2/13
Diagnosis (if you've been): biologically old AF
Status (TI/ICI/IUI/IVF/FET/benched): TI
What are you doing this cycle? (Testing? Treatment?): nothing other than OPK's maybe
How are things going?: I'm sicker than sick right now. I was convinced either flu or strep throat. I went to urgent care yesterday but I tested negative for everything. I've had a low grade fever and the worst swollen sore throat that pain meds aren't touching. and to top it all off, I started my period on Saturday, which is when I came down with my mystery illness. I had maybe a day or 2 where I was finally healthy after my last cold, which was mostly a sinus thing, but that dragged on over 2 weeks. I would swap with that again. I hate having sore throats
Any questions?: nope.
GTKY: Did you watch the Superbowl yesterday? Do you care? I usually love watching the Super Bowl. We had plans to go to a friends house, but with me being sick we had to cancel. I tried drinking a beer but my throat hurt too much to even enjoy it. I barely ate any of the snacks we threw together...and then Rihanna's pregnancy announcement was just the icing on the cake.TTC: Sept 2016-Oct 2017

@bearmomma1 Sorry you’re so sick! I hope you feel better soon. Also, glad to know I wasn't the only one feeling a little down about a celebrity pregnancy announcement. My husband made me feel kind of petty about it, but RiRi has literally made 2 babies in the amount of time I have been trying to make one.
