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.

What are you doing this cycle? (Testing? Treatment?): egg retrieval was over the weekend
How are things going?: my egg retrieval was on Saturday, and it went really well! I’ll put my results in a spoiler just in case you don’t want to hear my numbers haha. Recovery has been super hard, today is the first day I feel sorta ok to do stuff, but I’m nowhere near 100%. I’m still ridiculously bloated and definitely still regularly taking max dose of Tylenol. Now we wait until Friday to hear how many eggs make it to day 6, and they’ll go off for testing!
Retrieval results:
Fertilized: 18
Any questions?: NATM
GTKY: What is your go-to takeout order? Chicken pho! So good.Married: 11/12/16

What are you doing this cycle? (Testing? Treatment?): I have an ultrasound tomorrow to hopefully figure out what’s going on.
How are things going?: Outside of ttc- pretty well! My home renovations are SO close to done. I need to finish the home gym, and we have the plumber coming to finish up then - done! Phew. My husband had a tooth pulled last Friday and it’s been the man cold times ten. He’s still moaning around the house. He’s headed back to the dentist tomorrow.
Any questions?:
GTKY: What is your go-to takeout order? Eggplant parm sub! But there is a place near us that has poutine and that has definitely been on the order lately!
