@furbabymom2007 It's hard to find a dog that's a good fit! I'm sorry the other one didn't work out. Ellie looks like a good snuggle buddy I didn't actually go out and meet any potential dogs until I got the OK from DH. I knew it'd be really sucky to get attached, ask, then be told no. Though... I could have brought the pup home anyway and asked for forgiveness. But that's sneaky. Plus, I have to bring DD to any pup I meet to make sure he/she will be good with her.
That golden doodle doesn't look too big... Maybe DH would be open to looking at either golden or labradoodles. Thank you for that picture! It's good to see those dogs next to each other for reference.
@furbabymom2007 He is skeptical for the last three cycles where I have not had a positive OPK (except I had one in April that was only positive in the morning when I tested around 6am, and then was negative around 11am--but no temp shift). So March and the current cycle are a "no." April is a maybe--you can see my temps went up, but I was never able to turn a positive OPK.
I was kind of nervous to show him my charts, because I know not all doctors support temping, but he liked that I had evidence to back everything up, which I really appreciated!

I think I saw parts of them as a child (and wanted an Ewok), but I didn't see them all until they were re-released into theaters in...hmm...the 90s? I was a tween or young teen. I also saw I-III, because I thought Hayden Christensen was cute. I LOVE the Family Guy Star Wars and BB8.

So far we've just rented places around the world, so this is the first time buying (we live overseas, and fell in love with the country we're currently in, so we bit the bullet!) SUPER excited And this also makes me feel less antsy about pregnancy/baby stuff since there's something fun and exciting I can pour my energy into!

I'm in the "Rey Skywalker" camp
4) I went to a super nerdy university, so ever since then, I can't write the date "May 4th" without immediately being "omg, it's Star Wars day"...but I live overseas now, and they put the date like "4th May", so I went all day without realizing it...until coming on here, actually!

R/R/CS: I'm SS so hard right
now. This is what's going on in my head:
"hey I'm feeling kinda tight in my
uterus"
"...you felt like that WTO"
"but I'm kinda a little nauseous in the
mornings"
"...you felt like that WTO"
"I've also been really thirsty"
"...you felt like that WTO"
"I am so tired"
"...you always feel like that"
GTKY - Because today is May the fourth, tell me when you first watched Star
Wars. If you haven't, when do you intend to? When I was around 7 or 8. They were playing
episode IV in the theater and my parents took me and it scared me and I cried.
R/R/CS: Had a sharp cramping feeling on the same side as O pain so of course I'm SS like a mad woman. It was probably gas but whatever. I keep having dreams and daydreams of a BFP and it's getting annoying. I bought my mom a grandma gift for Mother's Day (one of my brothers already has a son) and I just keep wishing I was giving her the gift for my kid as well.
GTKY - Because today is May the fourth, tell me when you first watched Star Wars. If you haven't, when do you intend to? . Bonus points for Star Wars GIFs!
I think the first time remember seeing it was probably 8 or 9.
Testing: BFN this morning. Will hold out again until 13dpo/Sat unless I get sore boobies before then
R/R/CS: Starting to SS though especially after feeling a little cramping on the right side. I have no idea how long my LP is, but I think last cycle was nearly 16 days. I have wondered if a longer LP could mean it'll take longer for implanting to happen, IF it does happen. Eh, just thinking out loud, but feel free to educate me if y'all know anything on this.
GTKY - Because today is May the fourth, tell me when you first watched Star Wars. If you haven't, when do you intend to? . Bonus points for Star Wars GIFs! Even if I tried, I can't remember when I saw it first. I have not watched any Star Wars movies in the last decade and don't really care to. Maybe I will try it again someday down the road. DH doesn't seem to care for them either.
R/R/CS: I'm excited that I got to post today, sorry I've been failing. I got to meet my friend/coworker's 2 week old today. She is adorable! He started trying a couple months before us... he still asks if I'm pregnant yet, but always says how its normal for it to take a year when my response is no. It's nice, as opposed to others who tell me to stop playing around and get on it already. As if it just happens when I decide.
GTKY - Because today is May the fourth, tell me when you first watched Star Wars. If you haven't, when do you intend to? . Bonus points for Star Wars GIFs! I have no idea. I was young I've seen all but the new one... they're fine but I'm not in crazy about them. I like the extra/spin off stuff though... If you care, look up MC Chris Bobo fette's 'vette. Pretty catchy.
R/R/CS: I had a temp dip this morning. BSC is here, but I'm avoiding Google for sure.
GTKY - Because today is May the fourth, tell me when you first watched Star Wars. If you haven't, when do you intend to? . Bonus points for Star Wars GIFs! I remember watching Star Wars when I was young. My parents/brother were all big fans.
ETA: My teeth and jaw hurt like I've been clenching a ton.
R/R/CS: usually I can pinpoint O really easily without temping, but this month I'm not so sure, I was sure I had O pain on CD 10 but CP and CF would be telling me i O'd yesterday... Usually it's either Cd 10 or 15, not somewhere in the middle
GTKY - Because today is May the fourth, tell me when you first watched Star Wars. If you haven't, when do you intend to? . Bonus points for Star Wars GIFs!
I I watched all of them as a kid, I was probably 5-6 when I first saw them (starting at episode 4) episode 3 came out when I was 9-10 and my dad took my brother and I to see it at the cinema, I fell in love with Star Wars, I was obsessed with it after that. Still don't mind it, and loved the new movie (although a remake of 4) but then I am also the kind of person who understands math jokes, so there is that.

@CoonMom I'm sorry that sounds so frustrating. It also sounds exactly what you might expect from an OBGYN as opposed to an RE. Forgive me as I can't remember your history... Have you had all the normal testing and bloodwork done? Maybe you do ovulate, but just not so well? I would not be satisfied with what that doc is saying and want to find a other doctor who is willing to address the issues.
Honestly I wasn't expecting much from this appointment. DH was surprised how well I took the outcome. I have not had any normal testing/bloodwork done.
*TW Loss briefly mentioned* We have been trying since Jan 2015. We were set to get started on the workup in December but I got a BFP the end of November which ended at 6 weeks in December. I called in March and asked if our 12 month timeframe started over since we were KU (I assumed it did). To my surprise the nurse said come in after 6 months; then switched to 3 after I reminded her I had/have endo that was removed in October with my gallbladder. We hit the 5 month mark and made the appointment to get the ball rolling.
*TW over*
I'm not much of a fan of my Dr. DH really seemed to like her. She was very careful with her words and didn't downplay my MC. She acknowledged my feelings of frustration of not having a take home baby yet. I think the only reason I'm not her biggest fan is because there isn't a clear cut plan. But having DH along with me today helped a lot. I agree not to do a full workup because I do ovulate and have normal cycles. We'd probably just be wasting a bunch of money we don't have.
DH is willing to do a SA. We might wait this TWW out just in case we "get lucky" again. We agree if it comes back less than ideal we might try a round or two of IUIs. If it comes back normal we'll talk about it but probably keep trying on our own a little more. Part of me wants it to come back below average just so we can put the process in our hands/do a little more on our end. Is that horrible of me?? I really don't want to spend the money but I also am more than ready for my baby.
I could go on but I think I took enough of your time. Thanks for reading.
@beary67 I’m glad you have a plan. Best of luck going
forward.
Testing: beta May 16, I'll PoAS before if I'm late
R/R/CS: no spotting so far!
GTKY - Because today is May the fourth, tell me when you first watched Star Wars. If you haven't, when do you intend to? . Bonus points for Star Wars GIFs! DH jokingly refused to marry me until I watched Star Wars, so probably 2.5 years ago. I insisted on watching them in chronological order (1 first, not 4) which annoyed DH because that wasn't the order they were released in.
GTKY - I was in middle school the first time I saw Star Wars, so I was probably like 13 or 14. DH and I just did a rewatch of all of the movies before the new one was released earlier this year.

@CoonMom I'm sorry your appointment didn't go well today. I'm glad you at least feel ok about everything and that your DH is willing to get an SA. FX for you.
@beary67 I'm sorry about the possible dx, but I am so happy for you that there is a plan to move forward now!
@CoonMom I just find it hard for your doc to even be able to say anything conclusive at all without any testing bloodwork/additions tests. its like trying to hit a target that may or may not be there with a weapon that may or may not be loaded. Oh and your eyes are closed, probably lol. I totally understand wanting something to be "Wrong" because then it gives you more to investigate! After the times you mentioned both before and after your loss, it sounds like at least something is maybe going wonky. Unless you are totally hosing the timing and missing your FW every month lol. At this point, I would totally feel justified in giving the OB the (temporary lol) boot and going to the RE.
The best thing about the (at least mine)RE was that she says right away, we will figure this out. And then she outlines a plan. Right then I felt like I'd lost a huge weight off my shoulders (would have been nice if it came off other parts as well but beggars can't be choosers).

ER#2 ~Jan 2019
ETA @TheJerilu omg your star wars gif! You win.
Month/Cycle: 4/4
CD/DPO: 26/9 (estimated)
Timing: -4, -2, -1
Testing: 15dpo (maybe 12dpo for drinking purposes)
R/R/CS: I'm SS so hard right now. This is what's going on in my head:
"hey I'm feeling kinda tight in my uterus"
"...you felt like that WTO"
"but I'm kinda a little nauseous in the mornings"
"...you felt like that WTO"
"I've also been really thirsty"
"...you felt like that WTO"
"I am so tired"
"...you always feel like that"
GTKY - Because today is May the fourth, tell me when you first watched Star Wars. If you haven't, when do you intend to? When I was around 7 or 8. They were playing episode IV in the theater and my parents took me and it scared me and I cried.
Me: 32 | DH: 36
Married June 2005
1/2016 - TTC#1
4/2017 - Initial RE visit, Dx: Severe MFI (Varicocele, 14% motility, 3% progression, but normal count)
7/2017 - Stage 3 endometriosis discovered during laparoscopic removal of ovarian cyst
9/27/2017 - BFP at 10dpo (cycle 22), baby boy due June 9, 2018
CD/DPO: 21/4
Timing: -3, -2, -1, O, +1
Testing: 10 DPO then every day until BFP or AF
R/R/CS: Had a sharp cramping feeling on the same side as O pain so of course I'm SS like a mad woman. It was probably gas but whatever. I keep having dreams and daydreams of a BFP and it's getting annoying. I bought my mom a grandma gift for Mother's Day (one of my brothers already has a son) and I just keep wishing I was giving her the gift for my kid as well.
GTKY - Because today is May the fourth, tell me when you first watched Star Wars. If you haven't, when do you intend to?
I think the first time remember seeing it was probably 8 or 9.
CD/DPO: 60/10
Timing: -4, -1, 0, +1
Testing: BFN this morning. Will hold out again until 13dpo/Sat unless I get sore boobies before then
R/R/CS: Starting to SS though especially after feeling a little cramping on the right side. I have no idea how long my LP is, but I think last cycle was nearly 16 days. I have wondered if a longer LP could mean it'll take longer for implanting to happen, IF it does happen. Eh, just thinking out loud, but feel free to educate me if y'all know anything on this.

CD/DPO: 16/4
Timing: fine
Testing: Waiting for my period
R/R/CS: I'm excited that I got to post today, sorry I've been failing.
I got to meet my friend/coworker's 2 week old today. She is adorable! He started trying a couple months before us... he still asks if I'm pregnant yet, but always says how its normal for it to take a year when my response is no. It's nice, as opposed to others who tell me to stop playing around and get on it already. As if it just happens when I decide.

If you care, look up MC Chris Bobo fette's 'vette. Pretty catchy.
CD/DPO: 16/7
Timing: -2
Testing: When AF is late.
R/R/CS: I had a temp dip this morning. BSC is here, but I'm avoiding Google for sure.
GTKY - Because today is May the fourth, tell me when you first watched Star Wars. If you haven't, when do you intend to?
ETA: My teeth and jaw hurt like I've been clenching a ton.
CD/DPO: 14/4 (or I'm still WTO tomorrow)
Timing: 0 +1 or -2, -1
Testing: no immediate plans
R/R/CS: usually I can pinpoint O really easily without temping, but this month I'm not so sure, I was sure I had O pain on CD 10 but CP and CF would be telling me i O'd yesterday... Usually it's either Cd 10 or 15, not somewhere in the middle
GTKY - Because today is May the fourth, tell me when you first watched Star Wars. If you haven't, when do you intend to?
I I watched all of them as a kid, I was probably 5-6 when I first saw them (starting at episode 4) episode 3 came out when I was 9-10 and my dad took my brother and I to see it at the cinema, I fell in love with Star Wars, I was obsessed with it after that. Still don't mind it, and loved the new movie (although a remake of 4) but then I am also the kind of person who understands math jokes, so there is that.

CD/DPO: 24/5
Timing: -6, -3, -1, +1
Testing: I was planning on 13DPO but I'm not going to make it. Probably Sunday.
R/R/CS: The BSC has hit and I'm having some serious SS going on.
GTKY: I grew up watching Star Wars but I'm more of a Star Trek fan
*TW Loss briefly mentioned*
We have been trying since Jan 2015. We were set to get started on the workup in December but I got a BFP the end of November which ended at 6 weeks in December. I called in March and asked if our 12 month timeframe started over since we were KU (I assumed it did). To my surprise the nurse said come in after 6 months; then switched to 3 after I reminded her I had/have endo that was removed in October with my gallbladder. We hit the 5 month mark and made the appointment to get the ball rolling.
*TW over*
I'm not much of a fan of my Dr. DH really seemed to like her. She was very careful with her words and didn't downplay my MC. She acknowledged my feelings of frustration of not having a take home baby yet. I think the only reason I'm not her biggest fan is because there isn't a clear cut plan. But having DH along with me today helped a lot. I agree not to do a full workup because I do ovulate and have normal cycles. We'd probably just be wasting a bunch of money we don't have.
DH is willing to do a SA. We might wait this TWW out just in case we "get lucky" again. We agree if it comes back less than ideal we might try a round or two of IUIs. If it comes back normal we'll talk about it but probably keep trying on our own a little more. Part of me wants it to come back below average just so we can put the process in our hands/do a little more on our end. Is that horrible of me?? I really don't want to spend the money but I also am more than ready for my baby.
I could go on but I think I took enough of your time. Thanks for reading.
@beary67 I’m glad you have a plan. Best of luck going forward.
@NurseMarie9 and @micshi Sorry for CD1

CD/DPO: 18/5
Timing: -2, 0

GTKY - I was in middle school the first time I saw Star Wars, so I was probably like 13 or 14.
DH and I just did a rewatch of all of the movies before the new one was released earlier this year.

@CoonMom I'm sorry your appointment didn't go well today. I'm glad you at least feel ok about everything and that your DH is willing to get an SA. FX for you.
@beary67 I'm sorry about the possible dx, but I am so happy for you that there is a plan to move forward now!
Hugs to you both today.
And for good measure

The best thing about the (at least mine)RE was that she says right away, we will figure this out. And then she outlines a plan. Right then I felt like I'd lost a huge weight off my shoulders (would have been nice if it came off other parts as well but beggars can't be choosers).
zdmd_14 My morning sickness started early with both my pregnancies! Maybe it's good news for you.
KristoB @antotoSorry about the BFNs.
@coonmom Sorry about your appointment!
