TTC Survival Kit

in TTC After a Loss

If you had to put together a TTC survival kit... what would it include?

 My kit would have...

1) BBT.

2) Preseed lube and lots of it.  (and seriously! more than 9 applicators!! Come on!)

3) Digital OPKs... roughly 25 of them... my cycles are jacked up.  They must be digital, I like them to smile at me... 

4) Sexy outfit from Fredrick's of Hollywood (JIC DH is not cooperating).

5) Several gallons of Pom juice.

6) Lavender scented bubble bath.

7) 1 pee stick for every day of the 2ww. 

8) Pg books so I can overanalyze every twinge, poop and sneeze.

    1) OPKs

    2) PreSeed (I agree about the applicators - not enough.  I miss the old kind that came "pre-loaded")

    3) my iPod w/ a new FWP playlist for every new cycle :)

    4) my laptop (to hang out on the bump and revisit www.whenmybaby.com to calculate various dates to obsess about)

    5) HPTs (locked away until day 28)
