TWW and WTO Monday Oct 24

in Trying to Get Pregnant
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 - i guess technically still benched until i get my biopsy results, but i'm speaking positivity into the universe 

    Month/Cycle: too many? 23 months - no idea what cycle tbh 

    CD (/DPO if applicable): 6

    What's coming up? (FW, testing, etc.): 3rd biopsy on 10/27, taking prenatals again, along with extra folic acid, baby aspirin, and will start progesterone suppositories after ovulation. oh an probiotics to help my stomach after the monster amount of antibiotics.

    R/R: just really glad to be done all the antibiotics, my poor GI tract. 

    CS/Q: natm

    @anniemarie887 I like your positivity, and it sounds like you have a great plan in place. Fingers crossed for your biopsy! 

    Status (WTO, TWW, benched, etc.): TWW, waiting for AF to arrive tomorrow

    Month/Cycle: Previously TTC Jul 2021-Feb 2022, this month is my first cycle back TTC again

    CD (/DPO if applicable): CD27, 11 days post peak 

    What's coming up? (FW, testing, etc.): I tested this morning, even though I already knew the answer. It somehow feels better to me to know the answer for sure before AF shows up. Looking forward to an appointment with my OBGYN next week to make a solid TTC plan. 

    R/R: My husband was gone most of last week for work, and he's back now. I fully support work travel, but man I miss him when he's gone. 

    CS/Q: Why does TTC instantly turn me into an insane person? I have no chill when it comes to this. None.

    Status (WTO, TWW, benched, etc.): In limbo....almost a month late, but 4 negative tests.

    Month/Cycle: Been TTC for 10mo, but only like 6 cycles.  They're typically 36 days long, I got Covid and it took 40 days, TW - had a chemical pregnancy in July, normal cycle after that, and now I'm super late.

    CD (/DPO if applicable): CD62 :'(

    What's coming up? (FW, testing, etc.): Doctor appt. on Nov. 2 to see why this cycle is so off and going from there I guess.

    R/R: What does R/R mean?

    CS/Q: What does CS/Q mean?

    @dmcgrew17 Sorry you're having a long cycle. I hope your doc can help you get to the bottom of it, or help you start a new one!

    @maggiemadeit Thanks so much for clarifying!! 

    I'm hoping she can help too, but definitely ready to just start a new cycle so we can try again.

    Now that I know what they mean:

    R/R: I really wish people would mind their own business when it comes to kids.  I get asking, "Do you have kids?" but once I say, "Not yet," I don't need any follow up questions...

    CS/Q: How does everyone deal with the frustration/jealousy when other people announce pregnancies/births? I just can't help but feel so down and have a hard time being happy for other people.

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

    Month/Cycle: 5th Cycle TTC

    CD (/DPO if applicable): CD17, Didn't trach this month but I think I'm about 5DPO

    What's coming up? (FW, testing, etc.): Waiting to test. I'm trying to wait until 11/4, which is expected AF, but I have no self control so...

    R/R: I've had some weird stuff going on this month, probably just because I'm paying attention. Bloating, sore boobs, cramping. Since I know this can't be from pregnancy, I'm convinced AF is going to show up before I get to testing. 

    CS/Q: None

    @maggiemadeit - I feel you on the husband being gone for work. Mine goes for months.  :# It is so much better for his mental health than bartending ever was, so I am happy for him, though.


    Hi, I'm back! Oh my goodness it's been crazy.

    Status (WTO, TWW, benched, etc.):     TWW
    Month/Cycle: 4/3
    CD (/DPO if applicable): CD 25, 11 days post peak 
    What's coming up? (FW, testing, etc.): Testing in a week-ish 
    R/R: I just got back from my adventures visiting my BFF and my husband at the Ohio Renn Faire for my birthday and the House Science Project. (They work on the road, so I had to go to them and it was a great excuse for a vacay.) Hilariously, while I was out with them I managed to go viral on FB for one of my cross-posted TT videos talking about world building for my novel. 3+ million views! That was an awesome birthday present. 
    CS/Q: I moved my flight up two days because the Covid vaccine shifted my cycle forward by almost four days and managed to hit my peak the day I landed. Woo! I also started using the Flo app to keep track of everything, so I'm sitting on my hands now trying to wait to test when it recommends doing so.
