Hi ladies! Good luck to those ladies cycling!!
((Hugs)) to everyone else who needs them!! This check-in is open to anyone that is part of the SAIF community and is currently TTC again, either on their own, or via injectibles, IUI, IVF, adoption, etc.

@Gregermis, sigh for delay. Cyst, cyst, go away, and ... don't bother coming back.

In the meantime my insurance approval will be sibmitted and if all is well and I don't getpregnant this month which is highly unlikely, I'll probably be EPP- antagonist the next cycle.
Qotw- I enjoyed the beach the few times we went this summer.

FET #2 1 d6 embryo didn't survive thaw, transferred last d6. CP
At the pace we are going - with five of us on this post - I can make this bi-weekly updates. Since I'm in the thick of it I'm stalking this post every day.
@Gergermis, when is your next check?
@amandaleigh1, if you find yourself putting on more make up or wearing that fabulous outfit you only put on once a month or so or knocking your To Do list out of the park or scheduling lots of playdates, studies would say you are ovulating!
AFM: AF did not arrive! I go in tomorrow for lining check to see if it's pending or my cycle snuck past.

I think I'm still waiting to O. At least my late night attempts at opk tell me so. I'm so tired and not feeling like dolling myself up...

@sharonB222 - sorry no AF yet!
AFM - I'm fine with every other week... I'm on bcps for another month it looks like still because of batching. I have a u/s to check on the cysts this Friday. I've got some annoying breakthrough bleeding on the bcps like I used to get back when I wasn't ttc and trying to skip af (never was successful on that)

I've having drama here. AF started and clinic said they couldn't fit me into the schedule as planned, nor for the following week - they want to reschedule 5-6 weeks out --- I do not want to be on Lupron that long and my mom already booked her flight (took work Leave of Absence) to care for kids in two weeks and my work training I postponed is scheduled then, and on and on. I am put off. Will call in morning.
@Gregermis, is "batching" a clinic scheduling thing? If my delay stands, I will request BCP instead of Lupron.
@amandaleigh1, FX for O, just for kicks.

Afm, I think I Oed. I woke up very early yesterday feeling "in the mood" so i woke DH up and DTD. Later in the day I had a nice positive opk and I felt like I was already Oing. So I think I had good signs and timing, so the TWW begins.

@amandaleigh1 , LOL, and you were concerned you wouldn't know when you O'd. See? who needs an OPK? LOL. Congrats on O, FX for a miracle BFP, as they say.
The "mix up" was cleared up: I am confirmed as originally estimated - FET 10/08. Tomorrow I reduce Lupron and start E2 patches. The mix up has shaken my confidence a bit, but ah well. Wouldn't you know it happened over the same two days my company had a 7% layoff - I still am employed for what it's worth. Between everything I have a wicked headache (and acid reflux - I'm a bit of a wreck). Good thing I have my wellness appts scheduled (acupuncture, massage) - I'll need them! And so it goes...
@Gregermis , what did the u/s reveal?

@amandaleigh1 - GL! Fx so hard for you!
I still have cysts, so those need to be aspirated. Trying to figure out how to work that, a cavity filling, jury duty and starting stims all together in the same week basically. Blah.
