TTC After a Loss 6 Months+

What is up!

I need an update, right here so I can read it all in one thread.  I wish I could play more, but for some reason I'm lucky to check in once a week.  I think about you girls a lot.  So tell me what is new, TTC related or not.

 

AND GO!

    I think that would be great.  I can do it, I just don't know how frequently I would get around to it though...

  • Not too much here... just TTC on our own until our genetic testing results are in.  TTC this month was kind of an accident as I O'd a week earlier than usual!

  • After much discussion, Kacey and I are long-term TTA.  I think we've both kind of accepted that we are not going to TTCAL again for a very long time, if ever.  The pressure was just too much, and with no answers for so many losses, we just don't have the heart to go through it again.

    The worst part of that decision so far is every stupid family member who thinks it's their business what we do with my uterus and insists on telling us we need to keep trying.  I haven't been secretive about our issues, so it's not like they don't know.  I finally blew up when my mother-in-law told me that if I didn't have the horses I could afford the treatments to get KTFU.   We're currently not on speaking terms with her over it.

     The horses are the reason I'm not curled up in a ball of depression.  Even on the worst days,  I can count on both horses wanting to snuggle.  Friday in particular has a way of fixing bad days.  My MIL just doesn't get it, and I have zero room for hurtful people in my life.

    TTAing here, and looking at moving.. YAY ! (To the moving, not TTAing) Stick out tongue

    Had a Kidney appointment on Wed, where there was some good news, my levels are improving, so now I am back to stage 2, the bad news.. My BP is being unstable, low one min, high another time. So I am now inheriting another specialist, for my BP.. Fun.

    Sorry to hear the BP part but I'm glad to hear your kidney levels are improving.  Hopefully your BP specialist will be able to get your BP under control Smile

  • I'm still technically TTA. We accidentally had really good timing this month as I O'd earlier than I usually do (although I'm only basing this off of EWCM and ovulation cramps). But considering the pain was on the right side (where I have no tube) I'm not the least bit worried or excited that we might me pregnant.

    I'm still thinking early next year before we even think about seriously TTC again. I just don't want to go back to it...the charting, the OPKs, the obsessing.

    MH and I did the b/w part Friday  (6 vials from me, 1 from him) and then we will do the saliva test tonight.  We have to fill up a vial of our saliva and then call FedEx in the morning to pick it up- crazy!  The website for the company (Counsyl) has an account page and they don't post results, but they do post when on my account when they release the results to my RE, whose generally quick with getting them to me!

    I know what you mean.  I don't miss charting, temping or peeing on things.  I really don't miss FWP time.  I used to get so uptight if we didn't get it on when I thought I was Oing.

  • It's nice to see everyone updates in one spot! Good call Chels!

    As for me..oh you know still hanging out on the bench. I decided we needed a 6+ bench since there are so many of us TTA right now. So I found us this one. Smile

  • I started charting in February and it's looks like it was the right move since my DH wants to try on our own now. A friend of mine gave me her fertility monitor too. Now if AF would just show up that would be great.  

  • imagevinceandang:

    I've been lurking a lot more than posting. I'm trying to not be so obsessed with TTCAL. I'm impatiently waiting for my next AF so I can finally start clomid. I don't think I o'd this month. So I have no idea what's going on with my body. 

     

    This is me exactly, except I'm trying to be patient for the IVF we are currently doing. Trying not to make it priority of my life...
