Welcome to the TTCAL check-in! Hope you have had a good week and we would love to hear an update from you! Please don't be shy in asking the PGAL/PAL ladies questions if you have them.
Where are you in your TTCAL journey?
Do you have any relevant upcoming appointments?
QOTW: Which is harder for you - waiting to O or the TWW? What helps you get through the anxiety and craziness of TTC? Any tips or tricks to share with the rest of us?
Open Topic: What is on your mind this week?

Re: ****TTCAL Check-in****
We have decided to just "let it happen", in hopes that the less stress we have, the more successful we will be. Lets hope I can follow through on that decision! Wishing luck and sending ((hugs)) to all of my fellow ttcal'ers!
Checking in!
Where are you in your TTCAL journey? Third cycle of TTC. I'm 2 days late (CD40) but have had 2 BFN so I'm sure AF will show her ugly head soon. I'm probably just irregular since I have been working out more. So much for conceiving when I was on vacation - on to the next month.
Do you have any relevant upcoming appointments? Nada
QOTW: Which is harder for you - waiting to O or the TWW? What helps you get through the anxiety and craziness of TTC? Any tips or tricks to share with the rest of us? I think the TWW is harder for me. I am at a want to pee on everything stage so the OPT is great for me and I love to see the smiley face. But I am also not the patient type and I want to know right away if I have been fertilized LOL. No tricks or tips here but I would love to hear everyone else's.
Open Topic: What is on your mind this week? Trenton's 3rd birthday is today and I actually came to work. One of my co-workers is having his baby today and he sent me a super sweet text "Awesome we have an angel with us today". This is a totally AW moment for me because these are new co-workers that did not experience everything with us. After Trenton passed away, we moved back to our hometown; therefore, I got a new job.
Also trying to keep busy while at work and not concentrate on the "what if" and "he should be" thoughts today.
Do you have any relevant upcoming appointments? "Pre-conception" appointment with new OBGYN on February 9th that I'm hoping turns into a first pregnancy appointment with US, but we'll see. This appointment was originally scheduled for the end of this month but was pushed back and I'm trying not to get too annoyed about that. Errr. Not happy my OB moved away.
QOTW: Which is harder for you - waiting to O or the TWW? What helps you get through the anxiety and craziness of TTC? Any tips or tricks to share with the rest of us? I think the TWW is harder. Just overanalyzing my chart and any "symptoms" and it gets crazy.
@stefuge - Hope everything works out with the new OB. I was fortunate that when we moved back to our hometown after Trenton's death, my old OBGYN was still in practice. While I haven't used her during a pregnancy, some of my friends have and have been very happy with her.
Do any of you temp at all? I have just been using the OPK's and since it has been 3 cycles (and I am extremely impatient) so I may add this for added certainty. Still waiting for AF.
Do you have any relevant upcoming appointments? I have an appointment with my cardiologist. I was having BP issues last week, she told me to up my dosage and it's been working so far. That's about it.
QOTW: Which is harder for you - waiting to O or the TWW? What helps you get through the anxiety and craziness of TTC? Any tips or tricks to share with the rest of us? Definitely TWW. I started tempting after my last loss and it does make you crazier because you have so much more information! Before I temped, I could kinda forget which CD it was.
@Littleowl913 - that's a good point about the temping - I may obsess about it more! I find myself staring at my chart - willing it to be positive! GL with the cardiologist!
