Re: Bi-Weekly Wine and Cheese Party! Come on in!
@snegde - I like count downs - especially when it is to the point that I will be past all the really insane shit. Knowing that there is only X more days left can make it more bearable. Can you schedule a massage or some other treat for the day after everything?
AFM - We should hopefully be done with the lenders next week and should be able to get closing scheduled. I would just like everything to go smoothly forward at this point. I got picked up for another project (yay! money!) and have been working on all the little things I need to start my own practice. The money from above will help with my start-up costs.
On the TTCAL front, my chart looks like I ovulated which is pretty good after last cycles abysmal blood work. I really have no realistic hope that I'll get a BFP but, to me, ovulating means I still have a remote chance. We are still planning on seeing an RE in July (after the house stuff is done) to see if I'm a candidate for donor eggs and what we would be looking at cost wise.
The day the Bump died - Jasper is wise
@snegde - One day at a time. I hope you can find ways to release all the stress or at least ignore it for a little bit.
@buggirl72 - Yay! The end is in sight for the house buying paperwork. I feel like you sign your life away. Congrats are moving forward with opening your own practice! Exciting!
AFM - I took a cycle of BCP after the Hysteroscopy D&C and now I am on my first AF. My RE wants me to do a cycle without BCP and then finish the CD3 and HSG testing with the next cycle. So I am temping to see if I ovulate. If I don't ovulate after 3 weeks they will put me on provera, to restart my cycle and then I can continue with testing. This testing crap makes my head spin.
In case you didn't see my AW post on TTCAL, my HCG levels are back down to below 2 now.
QOTW: Chocolate of all kinds.

@snegde I hope things slow down for you soon. Looking forward to hearing your IVF updates
@buggirl72 yay for money! I'm glad to hear that your ovaries seem to be stepping it up this month
@MyFirstRaspberry I hope further testing goes well
@LaRomana09 I hope you get some answers soon
IUI#2 was a bust, baseline showed cysts. So, no medicated cycles for 2 months bc we'll be traveling next month
We're meeting with the new RE at our practice to become familiar with him and to express our frustration with last IUI
I might not be around too much over the next few weeks, in an attempt to relax and not focus so much on ttc
4 Losses (2003, 2008, Apr 2012, & Oct 2012)
All RPL and IF testing with multiple REs = normal
5 IUIs = BFN
All AL are welcome

I hope af shows soon for you! I'm mobile and can't see if your chart is linked. Have you been temping? Hopefully it's not too much longer.

@uneek1323 I’m sorry that you’re feeling so awful. I hope you can catch a break soon and your doctors can figure out what’s going on. ((hugs))
@snegde I hope your testing is starting off ok. FX that everything looks great so you can move forward without any hiccups.
@buggirl72 Yay for getting in on another project! I hope the house stuff is coming along smoothly.
@myfirstraspberry That sounds like a great plan. I like that your RE is giving you a chance to ovulate on your own, but isn’t going to allow a super long cycle.
@laromana09 What a frustrating cycle! I’m sorry that your cycle is being so crazy. And I love the titles of your charts. J
@rachaeleigh Double ugh. Sorry the IUI was a bust and that you have another cyst. I hope you can relax and the break goes quickly.
@jap618 ((hugs))
@bookishmomma ((hugs)) I see that you have a positive OPK now. FX that you can put an end to this cycle soon and move forward.

Whoops, didn't see this. It doesn't pop up on mobile, so I can only access TTCAL 6 + when I'm on a desktop. Does that happen to any other ladies? Hope everyone is doing well... (((hugs))) to those ladies who need it.
