KC1212 · January 2014

Please provide a brief history and current cycle status.

Me: 2 yo DS who was conceived naturally after 4 years of MFI.

Current cycle: I'm on the AF that never ends. There's a whole thread about it.

QOTW: Are you currently addicted to any particular tv shows or books right now?

Yes- I'm watching Game of Thrones and I love it.

I was reading the final installment of the Sookie Stackhouse series but I'm not sure if I like where I think Charlaine Harris is going with it and I fear I will finish it, only to be pissed off.

freakyfast · January 2014

Me: DS surprise a long time ago in a previous relationship.

Current Cycle: Tomorrow I go for my baseline blood work and ultrasound for FET on 01/31/14. I should also start estrace and estrogen patches tomorrow, if all looks good.

QOTW: I am all kinds of addicted to TV shows. Right now its American Horror Story. It is done so well.

Books: Reading Anne Rice right now Tale of the Body Thief.

tuscanbride2007 · January 2014

Me: 5 y/o DD conceived naturally, 1 stillbirth (also conceived naturally); 2 chemical pregnancies in almost 2 years of trying (have done 3 medicated cycles). Currently on a "break" cycle to think about and discuss next steps.

QOTW: I am addicted to so many TV shows! At the moment I am catching up on Scandal and almost caught up to regular season. For reading, I started the Hunger Games trilogy. I made fun of DH for reading them and called him a 15 year old teenage girl for wanting to see the movies. Now I am hooked. :-$

Amerbutt81 · January 2014

Me: dx prolactinoma in 1997 ( I was 16) with levels of 1538. Found out I was 20 weeks pregnant in May 2011 and gave birth in October 2011. Last levels checked were 37.5, but dx with PCOS in December 2013. Took Provera, and having my first cycle since December 2010. Currently on CD8 and I dropped my entire OPK stick in the toilet. ^%&$%$#.

QOTD: The hubs and I are currently catching up on Nashville and we are obsessed. We just finished watching all 10 seasons of Smallville and I have the most insane crush on Tom Welling. The only book I am involved in right now is called "Basic Principles of Real Estate, 11th Edition".

Jen071407 · January 2014

Two DDs conceived easily (5yo and 3yo), TTC#3 since Oct. 2011. Bfp/mmc 3rd IUI, 3 failed IUIs since then. Cd1 today and just took my first BCP. 3-4 weeks of these, then going balls to the walls with IVF!! Today is my 30th Birthday, so I'm really hoping I'm holding a baby when 31 rolls around! QOTW: I just finished the 5th season of Friday Night Lights, so I need a new Netflix obsession! Love Downton Abbey and SUPER impatient for Game of Thrones to start up again. Also think Modern Family and New Girl are hilarious. I'm addicted to dystopian books, like Hunger Games and Divergent.

tache · January 2014

Me: MFI; D'S a huge surprise 3 months after getting married. Will be 2 next month. This cycle was a break since we were out of town during O. Will hopefully do first Iui next month.

QOTW: we just got Netflix so I'm trying out a lot of shows I missed. My fave right now is new girl.

freakyfast · January 2014

Jen071407 Happy Birthday darling.

KC1212 · January 2014

@jen071407

Happy birthday

!

Jeffreysmom24 · January 2014

Jeffrey is 17 months old, no problems conceiving him. Have been TTC since nov 2012 with 2 CPs since then. Currently CD3, starting clomid tonight.

I watch tv with DH at night after Jeffrey goes to bed - favorites are game of thrones, homeland, and back. I love to read YA novels like twilight and hunger games. I wanted to read the divergent series but my sister hated the last book and told me not to read the series bc it was that bad!

I felt that way about the last Fifty shades book. It got too "fluffy".

KC1212 · January 2014

@freakyfast American horror story....I thought I some some re-runs on Netflix. What's that show like? Is it scary scary or creepy scary?

Edit - P.S. When is transfer? You're gettin' close, right? You seem so calm and collected.

I would be a crazy woman!

Jen071407 · January 2014

@jeffreysmom24 I agree with your sister- the 3rd book, Allegiance, is not nearly as good, but I still liked it. And the first one is amazeballs!

freakyfast · January 2014

KC1212 - like twisted scary, definitely not for the little ones. It is just done so effin well. I really have enjoyed all of them. Each season is different, but they re-use people. It is just pure genius really. I mean you would have to be into it. It is a bit gory at times too. But I am into that weird shit.

Transfer is 01/31 -

I may seem calm and collect, but my heart and stomach are punching each other all the time. I have my baseline blood and lining check tomorrow. If all is good I will start estrace and estrogen patches. This is me on the outside: B-) On the inside: :-SS @-) :-w 8-} ~X(

Spookster · January 2014

I am CD3 after a 107 day cycle, temping and charting going to use my OPK's consistently this cycle and force myself on my H EOD. ( I am not a big sex loving person). DD is 3.

QOTW: I am reading Fairest by Chanda Hahn and listening to the Mortal Insruments (Cdity of Bones) on Audible right now.

I am also HOOOOOKED on Dexter!

Good luck freaky fast! Fingers crossed for you!

jstrat53 · January 2014

Please provide a brief history and current cycle status.

Me: 22 month old DD conceived through Clomid + IUI. Been trying to conceive #2 since December 2013 after starting Metformin (due to PCOS diagnosis).

Current cycle: I am pretty sure I O'd... today should be 8 dpo. I will test this weekend. Maybe Saturday morning.

QOTW: DH and I watch a lot of tv. Our Favorites are definitely Brooklynn nine nine, New Girl and Big Bang Theory.

CheesyPeas · January 2014

@jen071407, happy birthday, lady! I hope 30 treats you well!

@freakyfast, I just finished watching season 1 of american horror story last weekend and I loved it. Are the other seasons as good as the first? I haven't felt the urge to start the next season. I feel like it'll be weird seeing them all in different roles each season.

@tickettuesday, I LOVE the new pics of Finn. He's a stylin little man!

freakyfast · January 2014

@CheesyPeas - they are all good. It seems weird at first but it is actually all very clever. It really shows what great actors they all really are. Get to it!! You won't regret it if you liked the first one. Let me know!

CheesyPeas · January 2014

@freakyfast, I'll try an episode (or two, or seven) this weekend and will let you know.

EmilyB15 · January 2014

Me: DS will be 1 yo on Sunday! He was conceived after 18 months of IF treatments. Femara/Follistim cycle with TI did the trick. I am annovulatory with PCOS and insulin resistance. Started TTC #2 this month.

Current cycle: Currently on CD 11. Had an US this morning and I have 1- 14mm follie and lots of smaller 10mm ones. This is exactly the same as the last time I did the type of cycle (over a year ago). I expect I'll be able to trigger this weekend and then we're in for the 2ww.

QOTW: I'm obsessed with The Walking Dead, but that's currently on a break. So no other tv show obsessions (I have lots of shows that I watch weekly, but not really obsessions). I like to read just about anything. I'm not currently addicted a particular author or series.

annibes · January 2014

My baby is 4 years old, came easily in the 2nd month of TTC. TTC #2 since August 2010 with not even a glimmer of a BFP. I check out fine, DH with bilateral varicocele and crummy morphology. Docs say that repair won't help us out and we should just move to IUI or IVF. DS has autism so we are not comfortable with IVF, but will consider IUI if our genetics workup comes back with good news (i.e., no major indicators that we are likely to have another child with autism).

Meanwhile, I have DH on vitamins. Don't know what else to do.

annibes · January 2014

Oh and QOTW. I am a TV junkie now that I am taking a break from school. To keep the list short, I do not miss Downton Abbey or Grey's Anatomy, and I've been keeping up with American Horror Story. I like this season. I never finished the 1st season but I liked what I saw of it. The 2nd season was freakin' disturbing. I couldn't deal with the farmer from Babe being so damn sinister.

I don't read books anymore. I can't right now. I burned out on school books and am having the hardest time getting back to enjoying the written word. It makes me so sad.

lcloffredo · January 2014

DD was a surprise because of PCOS, she will be 2 in March. TTC#2 since December 2012 (not preventing before that) 2 failed cycles of clomid

Cycle day 8 and AF is still here but I finished my last dose of my first round of femara so hopefully today is the last day of that!

I just recently started watching Duck Dynasty and the season premiere was on last night and I fell asleep halfway through it!

Acegoat · January 2014

Please provide a brief history and current cycle status.

Me: Almost two year old DD, conceived after 4 cycles naturally. TTC # 2 for 13 months/12 cycles. No luck so far. Just starting my infertility journey.

Current cycle: AF is due tomorrow - temp is dropping and negative tests so sure she is on her way.

QOTW: Excited to watch the audition episodes of American Idol!

Acegoat · January 2014

Side note - how do I get those tickers off my signature? I went to my profile edit my signature and removed those links but they are still showing up! When I go back to my profile I can not find where else to remove them! Am I going crazy? (Possibly

)

freakyfast · January 2014

Did you go to the top of the board, and see the little icon that looks like a head? Click on that and go to the left and click on Signature Settings... try to change it there.

Hurley1023 · January 2014

Me: 2yo DS conceived naturally after 3 cycles. Current cycle: just started bravelle 2 days ago, praying these follicles grow healthy and strong! QOTW: waiting for Scandal to return with new episodes, very addicting.

Blackvelvet · January 2014

DS is 4.5 took almost 2 years and have been wanting another one ever since.

currently In the 2WW CD 21 DPO 5 this is following my second m/c just had blood draw to look into what might be going on.

We don't have must for TV DS and I like to watch Two Broke Girls and I like the Good Wife. I just read the second of the Hunger Games books waiting until I can borrow the third one in Feb

cerad5 · January 2014

Me: DD 12/2009 natural, no issues. TTC #2 since 5/2012, PCOS and metformin since 2/2013, MC 11/2013.

Current cycle: CD 10, I am off Metformin because I am healing from c diff colitis. Next cycle we get to start Clomid

QOTW: Are you currently addicted to any particular tv shows or books right now? Hmm, I really like Modern Family and New Girl because I love things that make me laugh. I'm not obsessed level though. Oh and I love me some Parenthood.

efhoping2010 · January 2014

History: Me: DOR low AMH, DH Azoospermia due to CBAVD from CF. IVF/ICSI/PESA #1 in 2010 twins. FET #1 nonviable pregnancy and D & C surgery, IVF/ICSI/PESA #2 no embryos to transfer, IVF/ICSI/PESA #3 chemical. Hoping to cycle IVF/ICSI/PESA #4 in summer 2014 somewhere. DH and I cannot agree, he does not want another PESA or to be touched at all, blah. We have decided CC*RM is too $$$ for one try.

Clinic 1 did not return my call yet so I called my last clinic and they sent me an order for CD 3 blood, they will test my AMH and FSH again. The last time it was tested was after my D & C surgery in August 2012. AF arrived a few days early today so it looks like I will get the blood work either Monday or Tuesday with results in 4-5 days.

Wishing everyone well

QOTW: Love The Big Bang Theory, kind of find Reign fun but not accurate, New Girl. I love reading classics and am into Frances Burney novels, I finished Evelina and am now reading Cecilia.
