  "If I don't get knocked up this cycle, I am going to become a blond and maybe share more of my hair off (I have the left side undercut already and have been thinking about shaving the back and other side) or I may see if I can muster enough funds for a tattoo.

  "If I don't get knocked up when my cycle returns I will continue to enjoy the woodchuck fall cider and my diet coke binge."  Had the fall cider at a beer fest this past weekend.  Seriously good stuff.  It's like spiced cider with a kick.

  If I don't get knocked up this cycle, I am going to try to keep positive and keep making healthy adjustments to my diet. 

  
  

  I'm really boring because I cut out alcohol and caffeine.

  I'm going to enjoy drinks on the water Labor Day weekend in VT and be able to enjoy my secret formula sangria I'm bringing to a friend's party the same weekend.
  I am also going to start weaning of caffeine and get back on the workout train that I fell off after the wedding!
  Eta: I'm doing the second paragraph regardless, just would modify severity if knocked up

  NOT give birth while walking down the aisle in a bridesmaid's dress at my friend's wedding. (Though crowning during the vows would be pretty memorable for the guests.)

  
  

  I am going to keep working out every morning and look for a more challenging job. (If I do have a baby, we plan for me to be a SAHM, so that makes the job hunt somewhat less urgent.)

  Me: 38 DH: 40 TTC#1 (and likely only) since 9/13. Saw RE 5/14, SA good, AMH 2.36, FSH 7.2, estradiol 69.6 indicating good egg reserve. Using OPKs. First Letrozole cycle 6/14, a burst cyst and a BFN. Second Letrozole cycle 7/14, BFN. 

  
  

  Update 11/14 - had laparoscopy 10/28, good news is that my uterus and left tube look good, and they were able to drain the cyst on my left ovary. Bad news is that right tube and ovary have endo and scar tissue, so they're pretty useless.. Best news is that we finally have some answers and a path forward. Taking 7.5 mg letrozole CD 2-6 to put that good left ovary through its paces. 

  
  

  UPDATE 2/2015 - We switched to another fertility clinic, but fortunately we don't have to start all over. We're doing two cycles of Clomid plus IUI, if neither of those take, we'll do IVF in April, potentially with ICSI. (DH's SA has gone downhill, likely due to excessive exercise.) IUI#1 2/25/15....

  I didn't get knocked up this cycle so I went out last night for tacos and sangria with some friends. One thing I will never do again is google anything related to conceiving naturally at 40. Nothing has ever made me feel so old and depressed.

  If I don't get knocked up this cycle, I am out for possibly the remainder of the year. My husband is back in the UK while I start to apply for a spouse visa to move there. I will be 42 this December, so it is making me worry. Ideally though, I would like to use the time I won't be TTC to get in better shape. 

  
  

  To clarify, I am still in the TWW and he just left Monday.

  If I don't get knocked up this cycle I'm going to book my reservation for my good friend's destination wedding at an all inclusive couples resort coming in the spring. I'll be able to fly (in May) if I don't get pg before Nov.
  Of course I would much rather be pregnant!!

  @CML11‌ I just found out friends of ours are getting married in Belize in March. Belize is a total bucket list place for me, so every month without BFP makes that trip more likely...so I'm considering that the silver lining.
  (But FX you get KU and can't go!)

  Possibly now go to Dubai for work in Feb.

  TTC#1 since Aug 2013, I'm 37, DH 41.  
  

  Maya Arvigo Abdominal massage (daily self care), plus TTC meditations.

  I'm very sensitive to diet (gluten, avoid processed foods) and environment. Have a history of inflammation and tendinitis before going off gluten in 2009.  
  

  July 2014 - RE Visit #1: Eggs look good, Endometrioma on R ovary, HSG showed blocked R tube close to ovary. DH SA normal 

  DX: Endometriosis probably the IF cause and gunking up tubes.  Since egg reserve is high, RE says I can wait a couple months and then get laproscopic surgery to remove endo & clear tube.  If that doesn't help then move to IVF. 

  Dec 2014 - Saw new RE - does not recommend surgery on tube as it isn't likely to help.  Doubts I have endometriosis.  My endometrioma shrunk to neglible size (yay!) 

  Seriously considering IVF in March/April
