Hello Ladies,

Where are you in your TTCAL journey?

Cycle 4; CD12

Do you have any relevant appointments upcoming?

No but I'm starting to worry that I won't be able to ever get pregnant again for some silly reason

QOTW: What are somethings that you are doing differently this time while TTC?

We weren't trying when we found out we were having Corbin (one of several reasons we call him Mr. Surprise).  When we first started trying again we were just sort of trying and hoping.  This month I'm using OPKs

Open Topic. What is on your mind this week?

How badly I want another child and how I want to raise a child.

Cycle 3 CD6

Do you have any relevant appointments upcoming?

No

QOTW: What are somethings that you are doing differently this time while TTC?

We weren't really trying when we got pregnant before, we weren't preventing either though. This time I'm charting and using opks, and I just bought a cbefm.

Open Topic. What is on your mind this week?

I just want to be pregnant so bad!!!!!!!! It's really starting to consume me. I'm trying to stay calm, but it's just so hard to be ttc after a loss.

3rd cycle, CD 8

Do you have any relevant appointments upcoming? 

Nope

QOTW: What are somethings that you are doing differently this time while TTC? 

This cycle I am taking a new approach.  I am not going to stress over it, try to have fun during the BD sessions, and just let nature do its thing.  I'm not going to be a slave to OPKs of CM!!

Open Topic. What is on your mind this week?

I have been trying to participate in the TTCAL board, but I really don't fit in.  Our struggles aren't the same as the majority of women on that board.

CD 7, Cycle 6 (3rd medicated) 

Do you have any relevant appointments upcoming?

No 

QOTW: What are somethings that you are doing differently this time while TTC? 

Pretty much the same routine this time, especially since I've been back on clomid. BDing is easier this time since DH's work schedule is better (no more night shifts). 

Open Topic. What is on your mind this week?

Really trying to be positive and not get into a funk about still not being pregnant. And, trying not to spiral into fears that I have a worse fertility issue than we know and will need to do something more invasive to get pregnant again.

I've lurked there (sometimes a lot) over the last month or two. Initially I couldn't bring myself to intro because I was hoping we wouldn't be TTC for long. Now, I feel more like I don't really fit in there.

Cycle 9, CD 23

Do you have any relevant appointments upcoming?

No

QOTW: What are some things that you are doing differently this time while TTC?

I never charted with either of my successful pregnancies. My OB suggested that I try since it has taken so much longer that expected. I find it comforting until the end of my 2ww! Then I get stressed!

Open Topic. What is on your mind this week?

I never thought it would take this long to get pregnant again. Our first took 3 months, second took 6 months. I never thought I would be at 9 months wondering if I will be able to have another child.
