btaylor19

still on bcps.  I am not a fan of them so I can't wait until next Thursday when I take my last one.

QOTW - I have horrible knees, so I'm on doctors orders to avoid flip flops and any shoe without arch support.  Booo...  So I pretty much wear running shoes everywhere.

ukcats27

Hi ladies!

 

My update: ukcats27: TTC #1, Cycle #7, Month #8, MFI, Polycystic Ovaries and Probable Endo, going on BCP for lap on July 21st chart

 

QOTW - Old Navy Flip Flops!  I wear them everywhere.

brookelynpaisley

I guess I'm kind of on a break this cycle until we get in with the RE next month. Test results: low progesterone, CD3 BW = "normal" according to moron OB, HS: clear, DH's SA: pending

I think this is cycle 14, I'm too lazy to look

 

I Loooooooooooove flip flops! Particularly Old Navy flip flops. I wear my black ones until they get "distressed" by my aspiring clothing designer dog, or I wear through them.

buckeyebaby814

Sorry I haven't been around for a few weeks.  I had gotten a BFP and then had another m/c a week later (confirmed Monday with dropping betas.) ---QOTW:  Sandals- All kinds!  I hate to wear socks and shoes, unless I am working out! **please move me to TTA**. TTC # 1,Cycle # 11, months trying 11, Current Dx or treatment: no Dx yet, Plan for next cycle? TTA indefinitely. My OB/GYN is referring me to an RE for genetic testing because of my two early losses within 6 months.  I am also going to ask for other tests that pertain to short LPs.  I am just waiting to hear back from insurance, but I am also going to find a new OB/GYN.  At my last appointment, charts in hand, I told her I O late, typically near CD 20, then start my period 8-9 days later.  She says "No you don't.  You ovulate on CD 14 and your cycle is always around 28 days, which is completely normal."    WTH.  Clearly I need a new doctor!!   Chart    ETA: Chart and TTA status 

melissa721

12DPO, No AF but no symptoms either. And I'm not sure what to make of my temp today.

 

Old Navy flip flops!
