TWW & WTO Monday 10/17

The WTO and TWW threads are temporarily combined until we rebuild a large enough community to merit their separation. In the meantime, please use this as a space to chat about the day-to-day, commiserate about the challenges and laugh about the comedies of TTC, and to keep track of your own shifting feelings about this process. Please be aware that this community does not do symptom spotting (studies, as well as our own collective experience here, have repeatedly shown that the only meaningful symptom of pregnancy is a positive HPT). We also try to keep this thread a safe space for all regardless of where they are in their TTC, so please be mindful about references to past success, as well as of losses. Where necessary to the conversation, we encourage a TW and to use a spoiler.

  • Status (WTO, TWW, benched, etc.): WTO

    Month/Cycle: 5th Cycle TTC

    CD (/DPO if applicable): 8

    What's coming up? (FW, testing, etc.): Ovulating and DTD

    R/R: We've decided not to do OPKs or Temping. I got super stressed out last month after a very late AF (10 days late) and it was effecting my mental health. My husband is also feeling stressed and pressured. So, we decided we will DTD every other day for my usual fertile window. I'm glad to have the pressure off of POAS/OPK and temping every day, but now I feel like I'm not doing enough to actually "try." I know many of you have been at this for much longer than me, with a lot of interventions, so I hope I don't offend anyone. I'm trying to join in a few different communities, and I don't feel like I have a lot of support. Maybe I'm not doing it right. **TW?** My mom passed away from cancer in July '21 and I am really missing her and wishing I had her to talk to. Just feeling a little down and defeated. I knew I'd have trouble TTC at 35, but I guess a part of me hoped that would be wrong and I would get preggo right away. Sorry for the long rant. Hope everyone is doing well this week.

    What's coming up? (FW, testing, etc.): Testing I guess. 

    R/R: turns out I did ovulate late as I got a huge LH surge last week on cd41. Glad I didn’t stop testing I guess. And then on Sunday at 4am, I woke up in so much pain. Turns out I have a UTI. My first ever. What a cycle this has been. So I started antibiotics yesterday for it. Blahhhh. This shit is sooo painful but I’m feeling better after 3 doses.

    Month/Cycle: 2

    CD (/DPO if applicable): 8DPO

    What's coming up? (FW, testing, etc.): Testing and waiting!

    R/R: **TW loss** TTC after loss and the TWW is so stressful! It’s hard to feel excited knowing how it all ended last time. Feeling hopeful, but the wait is definitely more nerve-wracking than the first time around. Hoping to start testing around 10DPO with the knowledge that a negative is still a real possibility, but keeping my fingers crossed for a BFP and a sticky bean 🌈 🤞🏻
