@rainbowturtles Hopefully the bum camera is helpful, at least. Love to you, lady.
@ThePax89 I wish there was some serious philosophical writing on the nature of TTC (there isn't, I check while pregnant) because it's some weird stuff to experience.

@reneeannemm - boo on the BFN - but still FX for you
@rainbowturtles - hugs and love for both the chat and the bum camera. I've had one of those (actually 2...) and I will say the prep is worse than the procedure (at least for what I had). FX they figure out what is going on with you. And if you had the prep that I suspect you likely did, be sure to take a good probiotic to restore healthy gut flora.

Possible tmi warning* Thanks @reneeannemm Unfortunately it wasn't really There were no blockages or adhesions so she thinks it's "just" a severe motility problem and basically told me I'll have to just keep taking laxatives until maybe it improves one day There was also a polyp, which they removed and will check for cancer. I see her for follow up on May 5th.
Finally home and lying down, trying to let everything sink in but I'm pretty frustrated that it's another chronic problem (and then of course extrapolating in my head that conceiving and carrying to term isn't going to be easy either maybe or that there will be chronic problems involved there, too ).
I'm starting to enter the crazy zone, it's CD 22 and AF is supposed to show next Thursday or Friday. My CM is all over the place and really throwing me off, but from what others have said this is normal for your first cycle post loss/D&C. DH and I have decided to just dtd every other day until she shows. I'm hoping for the best and trying to prepare for the worst all at once! Every day I analyze every symptom and feel like I'm constantly feeling my boobs looking for tenderness! (crazy) I'm trying to psych myself up for a negative test so that I won't be so sad and disappointed, yet I know myself and I will most definitely feel sad. Ugh this roller coaster of emotion, awful. I want this so badly!!
So not technically TTC yet but per my chart on ff I'm 7dpo (CD50) from CD1 starting from day of D&C...well today I started having spotting, I hope I'm not starting AF already...I usually have a 11 day LP. I know first cycle post MC can be all messed up but will see if it turns to red flow soon! Ugh
I'm determined to not test until Wednesday at 12dpo. I only have 1 frer and 3 clear blue digitals so I want to wait as long as possible to ensure a correct result. It feels impossible to do though!

@AshleySparkle720 I intentionally didn't buy any FRER this month. I have a few wondfos left. Kudos for making your goal 12 dpo.
It's bizarre. I have no urge to test this month. I don't know if I'm just too busy to dwell on it or if it's cause I'm KU. 1st pregnancy I randomly took a test and had no expectations. 2nd I was freaking out testing daily and had the m/c. So I'm hoping it's a sign! Good luck to you!!

6 dpo. I ALWAYS feel intense implantation with my pregnancies 6 dpo. So my crazy brain is telling me this month is out. I'm considering going rogue next month and avoiding temping and OPKs.
I had some spotting yesterday and realistically know I'm out, if I ever even had a chance of being in. I wish I knew how to trick myself into not wanting this so badly. Like maybe I should stop charting and posting altogether...
Sorry had to run and help DH with something. I just don't know if this makes me more crazy or "obsessed". I've tried before to "not want it so badly" and it just doesn't seem to work. I think I'm just sad and hormonal right now, sorry ladies
@rainbowturtles You have to do what's right for you, especially in something as emotional and draining as TTCAL. Sometimes taking a break can really clear your head, so take care of yourself as best you can. You're on the bench, so maybe a cycle or two off temping will refresh you and prepare you for when you're off the bench later this year.

Hi @rainbowturtles, I'm so sorry for what you are going through. Dealing with GI issues while TTCAL is very tough. I know as I was in a similar situation last month. Wishing you a speedy recovery!

Shoot, I had meant to mention that in my check-in response to you @reneeannemm. Was hoping that AF was nearby for you or had started. Or at the very least, that the cramps and hormones were hitting less hard. Very glad to hear today you're feeling somewhat better though!
