We're on cycle 6 now and my body is a mess. I had a 17 day period this month, I went to the doctor for blood work and have a pelvic ultrasound scheduled for Wednesday. The doctor gave me a pack of BC to take to hopefully stop the bleeding so I thought we would be benched for the month, fortunately it stopped on its own the next day. I have to call Monday for blood test results, I'm almost hoping something shows up and its a quick fix and we'll get pregnant quickly. At this point I'm still so exhausted and worn out from the seemingly never ending period that the idea of actually having to have sex to get pregnant makes me tired lol.
I'm on CD22 with no O ::twiddles thumbs::, but I was very stressed around CD14. We decided to postpone TTC for another cycle anyway, so right now I'm just hanging out and waiting to see whether I will actually O or whether I'll have an anovulatory cycle. Of course, now that I'm O'ing about a week late, that means that if I O at the regular time next cycle, it'll be right after DH gets out of the hospital from minor heart surgery. Don't know if there will be any ... ahem ... restrictions that will rule out TTC for that cycle.
BFP1: DD1 born April 2011 at 34w1d via unplanned c/s due to HELLP, DVT 1 week PP
BFP2: 3/18/12, blighted ovum, natural m/c @ 7w4d BFP3: DD2 born Feb 2013 at 38w4d via unplanned RCS due to uterine dehiscence
Currently CD9. Last cycle was a bust despite perfect timing. I'm trying to decide whether to start charting again. I just don't want to return to the craziness and stress that we went through when we were TTC the first time. Then again, there is so much less pressure this time around. If I never conceive again, I know I can be content with the family that I have.

That sucks, @wineandcake. I can't imagine a 17 day period. Ugh. I hope your body gets itself figured out ASAP. Doesn't it know you've got some babymaking to do!?

I will try to wait to test till 10DPO. But I caved last cycle on 7. I don't want to see that many BFNs again. I'm only doing OPKs because the few months at the beginning of the year that I did the full charting were some of my most stressed times. Totally understand not wanting the crazy back @lc&jw Hoping it is either nothing or an easy fix @wineandcake.
We are on cycle... ?? I've lost count. We are having trouble, obv. Clomid cycles x4... no luck and only O'd 1 month.
We are seeing an RE now. Husband has super sperm. I don't ovulate. We have no new info. My AMH was good, so that's a good sign. On provera now waiting to bleed. Then I have more blood work and a medicated cycle. Trying femara next and maybe IUI (but I'm not sure we need to... 81 million, 87% motility, 8 morphology.... all at least 2x what they consider "normal"). I'm open either way-- at least with IUI we will be sure to time it right!
Trying to live healthy, lose weight, and we are getting prepped to put our house up for sale.
