?~?~?~?~Ladies In Waiting Check In~?~?~?~?

xnbride

This is group designed for all the ladies in the various stages of waiting after a loss: waiting to miscarry, waiting for AF to arrive, waiting to TTC again, and waiting for a BFP.   Since this process is such a true test in patience, it is nice to have the support and friendship of other women going through similar experiences and emotions. 

Check in every Tuesday and Thursday.

New members: Post your current TTC status and I will add you to the list! Welcome :-)

Current members: Post your updates, link to your chart, upcoming appointments, prayer requests, and if you get a BFP, please feel free to post here (along with your EDD). 

There will be a question, a place for prayer request, and an inspirational verse.  I look forward to getting to know you.

 

To keep track of all your favorite Ladies In Waiting visit the Official Group Website!

 

(My faith has played an integral part of this journey. I truly believe in the power of prayer and keeping God at the forefront of this process, so if you have any questions or want to talk please don't hesitate).

TTC again and waiting to O, should be in the next day or two!

gina&dave07

Hello!
Current status - officially TTC.  The EB brought me AF.  I was hoping to get KU right after my m/c - but no luck! I had CD 3 labs done yesterday so I will have results by the end of the week.  My OB also scheduled me for a HSG for Thursday.

QOTD: My grandma's homemade mac and cheese!

williams4me

Still waiting on AF!!  It sucks! I hate that I have to wait for her to start our journey again!!!

QOTD:  Nachos.  (I'd love some right now actually) 

VikingQueen

thank you so much for remembering me.. I am so nervous tomorrow and not sure what route me and DH are deciding on.. if I am going to be getting on BCP for a while or just continue to go with the flow as we are now..

My favorite comfort food has to be a Snickers Milkshake from The Cookout (not sure if these are national yet but they are everywhere here in NC)

MrsMeMo

I'm in the 2ww and should be testing on Friday or Saturday. FX!

MDT082010

I am waiting for a BFP. I'm trying to remain optimistic, but everytime I think positive I get a negative result. 

Favorite Comfort Food: Pasta (especially a variation containing ricotta cheese)  

Muffinhb

Still waiting to O (haha it the never ending wait)

QOTD: my fav comfort food it mac-n-cheese. I just at a box of it for lunch. I needed comfort today

callmeAl19

Waiting to test. I have about a week to go.  I believe I am 10dpo today, but since I don't chart, I don't allow myself to test until AF is "late".  She is due to arrive on Saturday.  If she doesn't, then I will test on Tuesday.  It's been a long wait.  A week feels like forever!!!

My favorite comfort food is my mom's lasagna. She loads it up with sauce and tons of cheese. Mmmmmm.

Luvmybella

Hi Xn, Can I join the group?  I am officially TTC and currently in 2ww (although still waiting for CHs from FF).

Thanks!! 

tiffany119

I love the verse!

QOTD: Hands down, mac & cheese!

Izabella22

Waiting to O, thinking its going to happen today or tomorrow. Fx!

Comfort food... hmmm... chicken alfredo w/ broccoli...Mmm!

Allie-Jo

Well I am new....but I think I like the sound of this group.

DH and I had been TTC for almost 9 months when we got a BFP on 4-11-11.  On 4-16-11 I started spotting, and the next day I was in the ER due to major pelvic and lower back pains.  I had surgery to remove an ectopic pregnancy that day.  

Right now I am waiting for my post op appt on friday.  DH and I really want to start TTC again really soon.  Of course we will follow whatever advice the doctor says, but I know it might drive me out of my mind.  I already had AF about 3 days after the surgery from what the nurses say, so hopefully my body wont take forever to go back to normal

mrsupgrade

Thanks for that verse! Needed it today.

I'm waiting for test results: The doc did Chromosomal tests (DH and I), lupus, sickle cell, and blood disorders. I get results on May 9th. Hoping to be able to start TTC then. I'm actually ovulating soon and it bothers me that I'm TTA, but it is what it is.

 My favorite Comfort Food is whatever is good, greasy, and I don't have to cook (pizza, french fries, mac and cheese)

mrst-tobe

m.mckee1224:

I'm in the 2ww and should be testing on Friday or Saturday. FX!

Good Luck!!! I'm right there with you! Hoping I can hold out for Saturday testing!

QOTD: I don't know if it's necessarily considered "comfort food" but, I usually comfort myself with french fries and a chocolate shake!

jerryliljess

I'm still the same as last week.

QOTD:  Ice cream is my comfort food.

mizdiz444

I'm in the 2ww again.  We'll see what happens.  We didn't really try very hard because my acupuncture doc said my body wasn't ready to be pg.  I'm on a super strict diet to correct.

baileyd1

In the 2ww for a BFP. 3 DPO today!

ECHC829

CD3 Bloodwork results were less than stellar.... still waiting to hear from my OB, going to discuss it with my acupuncturist tomorrow, hopefully start focusing more on fertility points...

... currently waiting to O. (CD8)

 

QOTD - I love me some Kraft Mac and Cheese... mm mmm.

 

MissAutumn

Happy Tuesday!!!!

AF arrived on Saturday!!! YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYA I was sooo happy! DH and I are now playing the waiting game until after the next cycle and will start trying in June!

Favorite comfort food is curry.

nikileebaugh

i'm officially TTC again!

got AF, now just waiting for her to leave and to "O"!

and QOTD: strawberry shortcake, or my all time favorite is white chocolate raspberry cheesecake from Olive Garden. YUM!

Tapatio

My status is still the same....waiting to O.

QOTD: My fav comfort food is hard to pick. I love fettuccine alfredo with broccoli and some crusty bread. Or maybe some spicy chicken soup with tons of lemons and crackers on the side.

princesscto

I would like to join you Ladies in Waiting.  my current status is: Just finished AF and I can officially TTC again! so I am now waiting to O.

My favorite comfort food is Hawaiian Pizza! yummy 

nicolelorraine80

AF is still here, but not making as much noise as she did when she first arrived.  I'm still trying to work off the pounds to make my cycles more regular (how I got pg in the first place), but I'm bored with Power 90.  I think I'm going to purchase another Beachbody product called Turbo Jam and see if that's better.  I do better with dance/routine workouts.

QOTD: Meatloaf and mashed potatoes.

Oatoa

Thanks for the shout out XN!  It was pretty exciting to get a + OPK this weekend.  Although due to scheduling and my poor OPK reading skills we may not have timed it well.  I am currently in the 2ww. 

QOTD: My mom's homemade meatloaf and mac&cheese.  So good to eat but so bad for  you.

AustinBride06

2ww still.  Been testing every day since 8dpo and nothing so far, but it's still "early" I guess. Trying not to get my hopes up since our timing was only ok this cycle.

BunnyBun1

I'm a habitual lurker, but your invitation seemed so warm, so I'm jumping in for a change!
I am a newbie and waiting to O (should be on Mother's Day). I got married in October, started TTC right away, had my very first pregnancy in January and a m/c on Valentine's Day. I have faith that God will give me a baby when the time is right, but until then, I wait, I chart, and obsess over it.
As for the QOTD: Mom's chocolate chip cookies. I'm convinced you can taste the love.

MrsRiceARoni

I had my 6 week pp appointment yesterday, now I just have to wait two more weeks for my blood results to come back and to have my annual appointment and than I can officially begin TTC!

Edit: Forgot to answer the QOTD: I love pretty much anything unhealthy lol, but when I'm in need of some comfort I tend to go for fried food.

vpr105

I would love to join this group! I am currently in the 2ww of my second cycle TTCAL. I will try really hard to hold off on testing until Saturday but we will see.

Favorite comfort food...hmmm....that's a tough one, I love food! Probably pizza or some kind of pasta and for dessert, chocolate chip cookies or some kind of icecream.

JT325

Hi Ladies!

AF showed up on Sunday, so we are back on the TTC bandwagon!  I'm feeling good and hope everything goes smoothly.

QOTD:  Hmm, meatloaf or fried chicken!

MrsMitty08

I am waiting to O.

My favorite comfort food is ice cream or pizza (or both!)

firefightersgal

AF arrived today, so back to CD 1 for me.

QOTD: I love dark chocolate.

FX!!!!

Eris-Alexis

Waiting to O again.  Same protocol as last month...Metformin, Clomid, trigger and TI.  Here we go again!

QOTD:  My favorite comfort food used to be Mac and Cheese, but now I think it is Yorkshire Pudding.  

I hope everyone is doing well.  FX for all those in the 2WW.

amu1234

I would love to join this group

I'm waiting to for AF to comed so we can start TTCAL- it hasn't been that long since the m/c but I'm kind of ready to get back on the BD wagon.

My confort food is Meatloaf & Mashed Potatoes or McDonald Fries & a Chocolate Milk Shake.

obxjs09

2ww.

QOTD: mac & cheese mashed potatoes with gravy!

mrst-tobe

ChoicesMom:

QOTD: I basically love all food.  Whenever I am feeling down though I really crave chocolate cake.

Update: I am in the 2WW, POAS for the past couple of days and all BFNs .  I hate it because not only am I a POAS-aholic but I am a dumpster diver.  All day after taking a test I continue to dig it out and re-analyze it, positive that I am going to magically see a line that I didn't before . 

 

I've totally done that.

ellebelle2384

Still in the 2WW.  I'm currently 9DPO but am trying to hold off until Tuesday to test (when AF would be late) because I have to work this weekend and getting a BFN and working this weekend on top of that would be horrible. 

Favorite comfort food is either peanut butter straight from the jar or sushi (strange I know but I LOVE it). 

LottaLattes

Still waiting for AF (just 2.5 weeks so far), and drinking that Women's Health tea, and raspberry leaf tea, and POM, and rubbing snake oil on my belly all day.  I have been temping just to get an idea of what's going on, but I think my thermometer is broken or something because I can literally temp three times in a row and get different temperatures every time.  It seemed to work just fine back in February, but might need new batteries or something.  Since the beeping makes me insane, I'll just get a new one.  Anyhow.

Favorite comfort food is a spicy Korean soup or ramen noodles (my mom's versions of comfort food

mundayem

I'm in the second week of the 2ww and just waiting to test.

Favorite comfort food is: potato chips
