Where are you in your TTCAL journey?almost 2 months in.  Was actually starting to think I might get a BFP this month (been queezy for about 2 weeks now) but AF showed up on Tuesday.  Boo.
Do you have any relevant appointments upcoming?No
QOTW: Are you going to do anything fun to incorporate TTC and the Holidays? (ie. The 12 Lays of Christmas! Or will it be business as usuall?Not really other than, per calculations I should O between 12/25 and 12/29.  My birthday is the 26th.  Happy Birthday to me!
Open Topic. What is on your mind this week?Started struggling last night with the whole "Corbin's not here for Christmas again."  Seeing a commercial for "A Charlie Brown Christmas" set me over the edge.  It's my favorite and I was looking forward to watching it with him

  Where are you in your TTCAL journey?  I'm at 12DPO- took a HPT this morning and got a BFN that has sent me over the edge. I've been at work sobbing all morning...I'm sure my coworkers can hear me.:( Do you have any relevant appointments upcoming? No QOTW: Are you going to do anything fun to incorporate TTC and the Holidays? (ie. The 12 Lays of Christmas! Or will it be business as usuall? I'm really trying to convince myself that the holidays don't exist this year. I think I'm going to skip them this year.. Open Topic. What is on your mind this week? I'm heartbroken. My EDD is in less than a week and I can't stop crying. I thought I was doing a little better, but I feel like I'm back in those first few weeks again...except now no one really cares. Everyone else has moved on except for me and DH. I feel like we're completely alone. My brother texted me the other day to tell me him and his wife are 5 weeks pregnant...I'm so angry at him for not waiting a few weeks to tell me. He told me on what was supposed to be my first day on maternity leave. I was hoping to get a bfp this month to hopefully save my heart some of this pain, but at 12DPO with a bfn I think I'm out..

I am CD17 and should have O'd today....we will see tomorrow when I temp. FX

QOTW - it was business as usual these last couple days.  Hopefully, I will get a BFP on Christmas, which is the day AF is expected. Here's to hoping!

Where are you in your TTCAL journey?CD 29 Do you have any relevant appointments upcoming?No, unless I get a BFP this cycle, in which case I'll have to go in for bloodwork (HCG) QOTW: Are you going to do anything fun to incorporate TTC and the Holidays? (ie. The 12 Lays of Christmas! Or will it be business as usuall?Hmmm..I like that idea, but AF might be on the way Open Topic. What is on your mind this week?I'll probably take a HPT tomorrow morning-I'm nervous. Having a little bit of hope for a BFP helps me get through the days. I'll be fine if I get a BFN, but it will just make the holidays a little more sad.

Where are you in your TTCAL journey? CD 5 of cycle 1. Do you have any relevant appointments upcoming? Nope, had my yearly annual last week, and won't see my OB again til I'm about 8 weeks pregnant. QOTW: Are you going to do anything fun to incorporate TTC and the Holidays? ie. The 12 Lays of Christmas! Or will it be business as usual? We are headed to Jamaica for Christmas, and I will be in my FW during that time. So there will be lots of vacation BD'ing. I think it's going to be a great way to kick off TTC our rainbow baby. Open Topic. What is on your mind this week? I'm already a little anxious about this process of TTC again. It feels so different this time. Very bittersweet. I am grateful for this checkin, in order to connect with other women with later losses. I've been lurking on TTCAL and PgAL, but as many of you talked about in that post last week, I don't feel like I really fit in there, as most of those women had much earlier losses.

Welcome : )
