Re: TTCAL check in

  • Where are you in your TTCAL journey?   cycle 6 post BCP cd 16

    Do you have any relevant appointments upcoming?
    July 17th with my OB if not pregnant

    QOTW: Do you use FF (fertility friend)? OPKs? Or are you just winging it?
    I chart my BBT, cm and use OPKs. I was introduced to charting when I was trying to get pregnant with Ana. We tried for two months on our own, then I charted for two months and got KU. I started using OPKs this time around to help pin point o. There has been some concern, because I have PCOS and sometimes you can get a surge but not O. That has only happened once since coming off the pill in Jan. and using metformin. So, despite having PCOS I am finding it helpful.

    Open Topic. What is on your mind this week?
    I want to be pregnant. I've wanted to be pregnant for over a year. I think it's time...everything seems to be in working order, so I hope it happens soon! This is a bittersweet, MF cycle. If I O on cd 18 like I did last month, that will be the exact.same.day I concieved Ana in 2012. So, same due date and everything. Whoa. So, that would be kinda cool but hard at the same time.

  • shandorfml2 thanks for posting the check in!  Good luck on your current cycle!

    Where are you in your TTCAL journey?  
    Two days past a 5 day embryo transfer.  PUPO!

    Do you have any relevant appointments upcoming? 
    Only the most important one of all - beta on Friday the 27th, although I know I will POAS before then so that I can react to the news the way I want to, whether the news be a BFN or BFP. 

    QOTW: Do you use FF (fertility friend)? OPKs? Or are you just winging it? 
    Negative.  I can't really use them - because of my PCOS (like OP said), I get my surge but I do not ovulate.  My LH, at any given time, is actually higher at rest than most people's when they surge.  OPKS give me many false positives.  Since I am going through IF, there is not a point in charting on my own.  We pay (or insurance pays) big bucks for someone else to do it for us.

  • Where are you in your TTCAL journey?  Cycle 3 CD15 Don't normally O until CD18-21, but my temp has been kind of high yesterday and today, so really hoping that it is just some random other thing. Hoping we haven't missed our chance this cycle!

    Do you have any relevant appointments upcoming? No, probably will try and see my midwife again in another 2 cycles or so if nothing happens.


    QOTW: Do you use FF (fertility friend)? OPKs? Or are you just winging it? I'm using FF now. Before our son I was charting the old fashioned way. :) On paper. Thinking I might try OPKs if nothing happens this cycle, even though I'm usually getting pretty clear temp results.


    Open Topic. What is on your mind this week? I'm really working on try to do things to lower my stress level right now and be more calm. I know this will be better in every area, but hoping it will help TTC!

  • Where are you in your TTCAL journey?  Cycle 2, CD 20/4dpo

    Do you have any relevant appointments upcoming? Nope, not likely until I get a BFP, unless that takes longer than I hope.


    QOTW: Do you use FF (fertility friend)? OPKs? Or are you just winging it?  I use FF faithfully.  It's always seemed pretty reliable for me, though for the first time ever, my cycles seem to be a little wonky.
