Currently ovulating. It's the 4th cycle TTC # 2. It's the first cycle with acupuncture and herbs.
QOTW:
1.) What kind of music do you like to listen to?
Anything except sad country. Although I do like southern rock and "crossover" bands that could go either way.

Chips and salsa
or salt and vinegar chips

Re: ***2IF WEEKLY UPDATE***
Anyway, being sick around O time means we are out this month. Oh, well. I'm on a bunch of meds for the next week anyway.
QsOTW:
1) anything, really, but I gravitate toward alternative and sometimes folk rock or blues.
2) depends on the month. Either salty or chocolate. I'd say volume is more the issue than flavor. I always get super hungry and can't stop eating.
DD - was a surprise.
CD 30, no ovulation this month, Not TTC again until we get results back from the SIS and blood work. My cycles have been crazy anyway since the D&C.
Favorite music- lol, Im from the south, everything is country
Favorite PMS food- I don't really have one, Pretty much if I walk by the kitchen im bound to leave with something. lol
First BFP while NTNP and ended in 1st tri loss. DS conceived on second cycle trying. Currently on CD 4 on post-partum cycle #13, most of which were spent monitoring cycles and TTA. Suffering with short LP that was largely unresponsive to progesterone. Meeting with OB mid-month to discuss next steps.
QOTW:
1) I'm pretty open to all types but steer clear of anything to heavy or angry. Recently I find myself listening to a whole lot of Elmo.
2) I don't know that I have a standard but I'll say ice cream. I also start craving coffee binges as I start trying to look for positives of not being pregnant.
October 2011 - DS (7)
July 2014 - Stillborn DD (24 weeks)
August 2015 - DD (3)
April 2018 - 5 week loss
QOTW:
1.) What kind of music do you like to listen to? ANYTHING. I love a good 90s boy band song, country, current hip hop, 80s hair bands... you name it.
2.) Favorite pms food? You'll find me with Cool Ranch Doritos AND Oreos in my lap because damnit I shouldn't have to choose!! (I got salt/sweet/salt/sweet repeatedly during PMS)

Hi Everyone! I am on CD15 of the last cycle before IVF cycle. I am due for a blood draw on Saturday for them to check my progesterone levels, and if it is over 5 then I start the meds for IVF on Sunday. I am very much getting nervous. Hopefully we won't be a flood zone on Saturday! I am home now, because our basement started flooding into my son's room. I have a DS from a looong ago previous relationship.
QOTW:
1.) What kind of music do you like to listen to? I am a rocker chick!! I am also a serious concert goer. Currently counting down the day to the Korn and Nine Inch Nails concert. I do happen to like lots of different music, except country. Can't stand it.
2.) Favorite pms food? Salty food, usually French Fries, but quite honestly I could always go for some French fries, they are definitely my kryptonite. I do crave chocolate cake for a short window time frame during pms.
DD was conceived on first Clomid + IUI cycle. I have hypothyroidism, high prolactin and a short LP. After 3 failed IUI's including a m/c, we are onto our first IVF cycle. I started Lupron injections on Friday and have to say I'm surprised at how easy it has been. My supression check is on Monday and then I will start Follistim. ER estimated for 9/30 and hopefully ET 5 days later.
QOTW:
1. For music I tend to like 90's, pop, some country....think Bruno Mars, Justin Timberlake, Kenny.
2. I'm a chocoholic to begin with, and it only gets worse during PMS. And there's only a few days of the month that I even think about salty foods, and I bet you can guess which days those are!
After 3 failed Clomid+TI cycles, DD was conceived with IUI#1
TTC #2
Clomid 50 mg + IUI#1 = BFP, m/c and D&C at 7w1d
Clomid 50mg + IUI#2 = BFN
Clomid 100mg + IUI#3 = BFN
Lupron + Follistim + IVF#1 = 11ER, 10M, 10F, ET of 1 expanded BBA 5-day blast, 2 Frosties. BFP! Beta 10/13 = 264! Beta 10/15 = 702! EDD 6/21/14
QOTW:
1.) What kind of music do you like to listen to? I really don't like country music. While I was in college, I waited tables at a Lone Star Steakhouse and I think I'm scarred for life. A few too many line dances will do that to a girl! I like most other music though.
2.) Favorite pms food? I don't get PMS cravings very often. Though when I do, it's typically sweets...like candy corn, or jelly beans
Currently on AF of 15th cycle TTC #2. Diagnosed PCOS Feb 2013, on Met 500mg 3x/day. First appt with RE October 2nd.
QOTW:
1.) What kind of music do you like to listen to?
I listen to it all. My favorite lately has been alternative music like Alt-J, MsMR, Awolnation and I am Dynamite. Add a little 90s rap and some country and that's the majority of what I listen too.
2.) Favorite pms food?
Everything. Ice cream, brownies, cookies, yum!
3.5 year old DS conceived after about 6 months. Currently on CD25 of cycle 27 TTC#2 (#34 if you count all our forced breaks, which I usually do since they weren't by choice!), which was supposed to be IUI#1 but was also a forced break due to too many follicles. Tube with a hydro removed earlier this year and otherwise unexplained. I am hoping we will be able to do IUI next cycle, but my thyroid bloodwork came back a bit high (I have been on meds for Hashimoto's since 2007) and the RE won't go ahead with the IUI unless my TSH goes back down. I should know tomorrow. Fingers crossed! We can try on our own still if not, but I am just ready to move on so will be disappointed.
QOTW:
1.) What kind of music do you like to listen to? I like a pretty wide variety. DMB is always a favorite, and lately the Pitch Perfect soundtrack has been entertaining me at work.
2.) Favorite pms food? I never associated a food with PMS. Is that strange?
DS born Jan 2010
TTC#2 since Nov 2010 with breaks for DH cancer tx (remission!)
Tube with hydro removed Feb 2013
BFP 11/11/13 IUI#2 clomid+trigger+prometrium

5w6d 1 hb 109 and 2nd smaller sac; 7w0d 1 hb 125 and confirmed vanishing twin
QOTW:
1.) What kind of music do you like to listen to?
Pretty much anything except really twangy country. I mostly listen to what's on the radio. I like pop music.
2.) Favorite pms food?
CHOCOLATE!! My fave is Flips (chocolate covered pretzels). I finished off a huge bag of them this week!
#1) I like most music. I hate techno, dance, and house. I also hate most current pop. In typing this out I feel like an old fuddy duddy. Turn down that noise, you kids!
#2) I don't really have a PMS food. I asked my husband and he said, "I don't know, more wine than usual?"
TTC #2 since 1/2012
