Where are you in your TTCAL journey?

Do you have any relevant appointments upcoming?

QOTW: Do others (family, friends) know you are trying for a rainbow?

Open Topic. What is on your mind this week?

Welcome to TTCAL CheckIn!

Where are you in your TTCAL journey? CD 7

Do you have any relevant appointments upcoming? Nope

QOTW: Yes, most know. I find it hard to deal with their disappointment or questions "you still trying? you pregnant yet?" So annoying...We've been trying for a year folks. Shut it.

Open Topic. What is on your mind this week?Want to be pregnant....I mean, really. I know logically, this will be my 3rd actual cycle, despite trying for a year. I've only Od twice (thanks to going back on BCP and metformin). I'm hoping 3rd times the charm, plus St. Patty's. Luck of the irish... *crosses fingers*. It's my turn to be pregnant, damn it

Hi ladies, I'm on my iPad so I apologize for the weird formatting! Where are you on your ttcal journey? Cd 13 2nd cycle AL Do you have any appts. Upcoming? Progesterone check on the 24th QOTW: everyone knows about our losses and most people who are close to us know we are doing extensive rpl testing but I try to make them think we are still being tested and not trying. I couldn't stand all of the questions and assumptions and I don't want people all in our business. Last pregnancy we didn't tell a soul we were pregnant until we miscarried and it made life a whole lot easier so I would like to keep it secret again as long as I can. Open topic: I've been a psychopath this week...can I blame it on all of these meds I have to take??? I've been super stressed and still not super confident in our timing but here is hoping this is our cycle.

Well we technically aren't TTC yet, but I am feeling more and more sure that we are going to try again, and I feel like checking in with you all, so here goes.

Where are you in your TTCAL journey?
We are currently TTA and planning to come off the bench in august.

Do you have any relevant appointments upcoming?
Nope

QOTW: Do others (family, friends) know you are trying for a rainbow?
Those closest to us know we are planning to. Losing Colton has made me realize that I can't do this again without those closest to us - they are our support system, and if we lose another baby we will need them even more.

Open Topic. What is on your mind this week?
We are starting to feel hopeful and think about the future more. We are talking about buying a house, and then trying for another baby, and I feel myself getting excited for what may come and hopeful that we will be happy again. And also just how much I miss Colton and wish he was here.

On my phone, sorry about format.

I woke up with AF this morning. This means we are done TTA and are officially TTC. I'm horrified, excited, sad... I can't believe I'm here again.

No dr appts.

I'd guess most people will expect us to start trying again ASAP. There are a few people I have been open with.

Good thoughts to all of you.

Good luck @MCH77!

Yay for being positive @stefuge !

Sorry I'm late for the check in. Today I have an appt with my RE. Too bad today is CD 6 and therefore I believe I will have to wait out another month. But at least I got AF on my own! To answer the question, I have not told a living soul that we are trying again. I told my bff that I have an appt coming up, but just as a preemptive check up to ttc again. So pretty much it's just me and mh.

Nothing really on my mind this week, except for planning to go back to school to finish my bachelors. I just got accepted to a local university, and I am having a helluva time with my transcript translation!

Where are you in your TTCAL journey?
Currently "holding" on Provera, waiting to start the April FET cycle. April cannot come soon enough.
Do you have any relevant appointments upcoming?
Nada. I get my medications shipped next week, and the first week of April I start actively preparing for the FET.
QOTW: Do others (family, friends) know you are trying for a rainbow?
NO WAY. We have not told a soul. I don't think they would understand us TTCAL so quickly, and more than likely the FET will not work anyway (I am forever the pessimist now).
Open Topic. What is on your mind this week?

I am getting as many opinions as I can from specialists on cerclage for next time, since my OB, his partner, and my MFM do not think I am a candidate. However, I am trying to do as much research and meet with as many doctors as I can. I do not want to lose another one.
