Re: TTC Check In (11/4)

  • Cycle Info

    What month/cycles are you in? 2/2 AL  (7/7 TTC #2)

    What's your CD? 3

    Where are you in your cycle (Waiting to O, 2ww, Waiting for AF, Other?) Waiting to O

    If you're in the 2ww what DPO are you? N/A

    When are you testing? Since I got 3 false positives using my Wondfo test strips this past cycle, I've decided I will not test until after AF is late.  I'm usually a POAS addict, but this has definitely taken its toll on me.  I found out the batch of tests I got were defective, so I'm returning them.  From now on, I will not test until at least 14 DPO and only if I have some indication that I might be pregnant from my chart or symptoms.  We'll see if I can hold out.


    What supplements or med are you taking, if any? prenatal vitamins and folic acid

    What is your current phantom due date? August sometime

    Do you chart? Share you link for stalking!  see below

    If you aren't pregnant this cycle what will you do differently? keep trying


    How are you feeling emotionally about TTC? Its becoming extremely stressful... after the loss, I think I want this even more.  But, at the same time I am terrified because I'm so afraid of another loss.  I'm trying to stay positive and relaxed, but its hard.  These false positives just about killed me this weekend.  I was so excited and then the next day when AF arrived I thought it was another loss (until I discovered the info about the bad tests). 

    Anything else to add? Good luck everyone! 

    @pinkshades- your chart is looking good!  Fingers crossed!

    @ninthgirl- looks like you O'd!  Fingers crossed! 

    @suitern- I know what you mean about worrying about time for a 2nd one.  I feel the same way too sometimes.  I just keep thinking about how much fun they will have with a sibling.  Good luck this month!

    @MrMrsBaby- how was your vacation?  Did you go to Disney too?  So jealous!


    GTYK: What is your favorite Thanksgiving Day menu item? I absolutely love everything about Thanksgiving, so its hard to pick just one favorite.  But, if I had to, it would probably be mashed potatoes.

  • Cycle Info

    What month/cycles are you in? 4/4

    What's your CD? 28

    Where are you in your cycle (Waiting to O, 2ww, Waiting for AF, Other?) 2ww

    If you're in the 2ww what DPO are you? Between 8-12

    When are you testing? I don't know. My head says Friday (my missed period) but my heart says NOW! ;)



    What supplements or med are you taking, if any? None at the moment. I should take prenatals but I'm learning that I have a genetic mutation that does not allow the proper breakdown of frolic acid. So I'm going to switch prenatals IF I get a BFP.

    What is your current phantom due date? Mid-July

    Do you chart? Share you link for stalking! In my signature :)

    If you aren't pregnant this cycle what will you do differently? Nothing.



    How are you feeling emotionally about TTC? Ready to be pregnant!!

    Anything else to add? I'm feeling a little confident this cycle. I broke through CD27 and my temps keep rising.

  • @vballgirl78--I'm so sorry :( You must have been crushed. I'm praying for you this cycle!

  • @ninthgirl I'm pretty sure that I am at least heterozygous because my mom is homozygous for one of the mutations. I need to get testing done but I've been busy with Halloween. What prenatals are you taking??

  • What month/cycles are you in? 3/3

    What's your CD?  16

    Where are you in your cycle (Waiting to O, 2ww, Waiting for AF, Other?) I THINK 2WW but I don't agree with what FF says is O

    If you're in the 2ww what DPO are you? 3 according to FF

    When are you testing? not until CD 27 so another week and a half

    Do you chart? Share you link for stalking!  In my siggy

    If you aren't pregnant this cycle what will you do differently? If it is a BFN I'm going to stop temping/OPKs for a couple months and just NTNP. 

    How are you feeling emotionally about TTC? Same as always, ready and excited but scared of that BFN

    Anything else to add? @vballgirl78 - I'm so sorry about the false positives.  That seriously is not something someone should have to deal with.  Vacation was awesome - thanks for asking!  We did hit up Epcot and it was so nice to just relax without Allison for a few days!

    @suitern - we would share an EDD so FX for you!

    @pinkshades05 - hold out until Friday!!! You can do it :)  GL

    @ninthgirl - I hope you don't have to go down the Clomid path, I know it makes you nervous, but if you do remember it isn't that scary!

    GTYK: What is your favorite Thanksgiving Day menu item?  Mac & Cheese - I introduced it about 8-9 years ago when my mom told us we were all responsible for one side dish.  It is now a staple and has been introduced to DH's family too!

  • Has anyone had IUI?  Im going back to the fertility dr on Thursday and im thinking that might be an option for us.  Its been 6 months which I know is not a very long time but its taking its toll each month getting that negative test.  Would love to hear about your iui experience.  TIA

    @pinkshades05 I'm taking the Vitamin Code RAW prenatal. I really like it, but I might switch to the Emerald Labs one. Vitamin Code has Folate while Emerald Labs says it has l-methylfolate. I find the mthfr.net guy seems to have a major agenda selling his stuff, so I'm kind of hesitant to trust his website, which is why I went with something that wasn't his perfect list.

    I was flagged for MTHFR during RPL testing, though pretty much every doctor out there agrees that heterozygous doesn't causes losses. However I figured an MTHFR friendly prenatal could only help, so I switched.


    I hear you--the prenatals are a bit expensive. MTHFR was brought to my attention because my mom (a Lactation Consultant) went to a presentation for it and is doing research on whether this is related to tongue-tie. Natalie was tongue tie so we'll see if this next baby is if I take the right prenatals. But I should get the blood test first ;)

    I'll look into your PNV, though! Something cheaper would be nice!

     

    FX for you this cycle!

  • @Cathyr1003 - Jump over to the TTGP board and ask (nicely!) about IUI.  I know a few women there are doing IUI or have done them in the past.

  • Just did - Thanks :)

  • Thanks :) I'm feeling ok about it. I think this next cycle will be more promising. I may get OPKs to see when I'm ovulating.

  • Hi Ladies,

    Sorry I missed the check in earlier this week. AF showed today....so looks like we are out for cycle 7 :( This is getting difficult! 
  • So sorry @pinkshades and @BellaBoo!  AF is a b**tch!  Hang in there and hopefully we will start seeing some BFP's in this group soon!
