Where are you in your TTCAL journey? CD 27. My temps have been very crazy this week. I've felt sick and overwhelmed. I took a step back, trying not to obsess and it's helping. There were like 3 or 4 times I thought I was Oing (sore as heck boobs, acne, O pain) and my temps wouldn't stay up. I'm not sure I'm having an AO cycle or not, but looks possible.

Do you have any relevant appointments upcoming? Nope

QOTW: How did you know that you were ready to TTCAL?

Open Topic. What is on your mind this week?Just wanting to either O or have AF come....I'm so done with this MF cycle. Plus, we are coming up to the time we got pregnant with Ana. I think it was June 22 or 23, and we found out July 7th. I was hoping to be preg by then so It's kind of hard to be coming up to that not KU.

Where are you in your TTCAL journey? This is our first month ttcal. I am in my fw and believe I ovulated today or will tomorrow, based on temping, OPKs, and cm so we shall see. Who knows if my body will even do what is supposed to.

Do you have any relevant appointments upcoming? No appts

QOTW: How did you know that you were ready to TTCAL? We wanted to add on our family and I knew even as we learned we would lose our daughter that I wanted to try again. I let my body heal and I am still grieving for my daughter, but my arms are empty and waiting. As others have said my desire for baby outweighs my fear of another loss.

Open Topic. What is on your mind this week? My birthday is Sunday and I am in my fw, I so hope I get a BFP as a late bday present.

Where are you in your TTCAL journey?  I am on CD10 of our second cycle.

Do you have any relevant appointments upcoming?  Just a check up with my RE in a couple weeks

QOTW: How did you know that you were ready to TTCAL?  I felt anxious to try, I was looking forward to it.  Plus being around a ton of babies a few weeks ago told me for sure since I couldn't stop thinking of our future rainbow.  I sometimes still get nervous and wonder if I am ready, but I am more ready, than I am not ready if that makes sense.

Open Topic. What is on your mind this week? Hoping I still O this cycle like I did my last two.  I used to hardly ever O so I am hoping my body continues to keep working like it has been.

Where are you in your TTCAL journey? 

We tried late last month, too late though. Just ended my period today and I am waiting for Ovulating this month.  

Do you have any relevant appointments upcoming? 

I have to go back and have another set of blood drawn to see if I have a clotting disorder. I only have Monday off so hopefully I can get in and do it. 

QOTW: How did you know that you were ready to TTCAL? 

I have two other children from a previous marriage, I want DH and I to have that experience also. I loved the idea and was so happy I had a baby for us to love as our own together. 

Open Topic. What is on your mind this week? 

I am thinking of how last year the first week of August we conceived our little angel. It is getting so close to that time. I am hoping that we can have July be this rainbow baby, August just feels like to me that it is her month and no one else's.

Where are you in your TTCAL journey?

Cycle 8 (since I started charting), CD 5

Do you have any relevant appointments upcoming?

Yes, I have my consult with my RE this Wednesday.

QOTW: How did you know that you were ready to TTCAL?

I thought that I was ready directly after we lost Annabelle, but looking back now, I know I truly wasn't. I guess it was when I had my CP in December that I knew I was truly ready to try.

Open Topic. What is on your mind this week?

Again, just wondering if we are going to be able to have our rainbow.

Where are you in your TTCAL journey? Waiting for my first AF post mc.

Do you have any relevant appointments upcoming?
I have my first consult with an RE this week, and a whole packet of paperwork to be filled out that has been sitting on my table for a week.

QOTW: How did you know that you were ready to TTCAL?
I knew once the fog of grief had somewhat cleared and I could kind of think clearly again, and my body was starting to look normal again. We started trying after about 6 months.

Open Topic. What is on your mind this week?
Why is having a living child so hard for me and so easy for others. My younger cousin is having her second girl. I was really hoping she would have a boy. She is celebrating another baby, and I am meeting with an RE because I can't have another one.
