What cycle are you in and where are you at in your cycle?
Do you have a question, brag or vent to share with the group this week?
QOTW: What are you most looking forward to in 2013?
Re: 1st TTC Check-In of 2013
What cycle are you in and where are you at in your cycle? 19 months, 8 cycles charting, CD 14
Do you have a question, brag or vent to share with the group this week? I enjoyed taking a little break from thinking about TTC over the holidays, but I really need to get back into the TTC mindset now and cut back on the caffeine and alcohol, take my PNVs every day, stop sleeping in and forgetting to temp. I still have a few more cycles to try for a 2013 baby, so I need to try to get my head back in the game and make the most of it.
QOTW: What are you most looking forward to in 2013? This sounds cheesy but mostly just seeing my little guy grow up and become even more of a real person. I love his personality and humor, and I can't wait until we can talk together more and share even more activities together.
Cycle 5, CD 25 9 DPO I think
Vent: Today I found out that I tested positive for the flu. So glad the flu shot I got 3 months ago worked...not!!. I am hoping that if I am pregnant it doesn't have any effect on the pregnancy. I don't think I will test until I am late.
Like GG, I am looking forward to more conversations with A. I got a call from EI yesterday and we meet with his speech therapist and service coordinator next week. I am excited for all the words he will be saying.
What cycle are you in and where are you at in your cycle?
My IUI didn't work, AF showed up yesterday
Good news is we are going to try again in June!!! It was supposed to be a one shot deal, but we both ended up really liking the idea of one more, so we will try again!
Do you have a question, brag or vent to share with the group this week? Nope.
@jax - That's awesome that you guys have a speech plan you are feeling good about. Best of luck!
@TripMomma - Sorry about the BFN!
That's great that your DH was on board with another try though. Good luck!
DH and I have been talking about cutting some things out of our lives so we aren't so busy. I've been thinking about how much more time I would have if I didn't work but even though we don't rely on my income, I'm too much of a people pleaser to quit. My boss told me last week that too many kids were being moved up so she didn't need me in my room at dc anymore. She gave me 2 options and after much debating I gave her my notice today! I feel like such a huge burden has been lifted off of my shoulders insert smiley face
FX to a BFP soon so I can look forward to a new addition. Otherwise I'm looking forward to the completion of the potty train!
5th cycle, CD16
started checking CM this month and need to buy some OPKs
i am most looking forward to my DH hopefully getting a promotion. He will know by the beginning of Feb if he got it and it will be an awesome pay raise and great experience for himself. He has been with the company almost 10 years so its very exciting.
DD 12.2010
Wow, congrats!
I totally missed it as well because of travel so I was happy to see the post was late so I could still maybe contribute!
What cycle are you in and where are you at in your cycle? 4th cycle, apparently 5 DPO.
Do you have a question, brag or vent to share with the group this week? This cycle is weird because I left town with DS and no DH for 5.5 days, during ovulation. That sucked. But, FF thinks that I ovulated the day after I left, which isn't that bad (yes we had sex the morning I left!) That's consistent with the opk reading, but the temps paint another story. In my mind I might have ovulated two days after that, which means we are SOL. I'm trying not to have my hopes up for this cycle, but I do stupidly have them up. Please talk me down!
QOTW: What are you most looking forward to in 2013?
Nothing in particular. I'm really enjoying my job and as GG said also watching DS grow up! I'd love it if he had a sibling, though. He is getting to an age where I think it would be really good for him to have one.
Thank you so much! I love you girls and really hope I get to see you over on HDBD soon!
@JBM - don't you have a stick you should be peeing on? sheesh!
Yes ma'am! DH wants me to wait until Sunday when AF is suppose to show up. I woke up all congested yesterday just like I did with my last 2 BFPs but I'm trying to not get my hopes up before I make it to town to get a stick lol
BFN
aww that sucks. I'm sorry. You're not out till AF shows, although I know that's not really comforting ((big hugs))
Ditto! I will keep my fingers crossed for you JBM!
