Re: TFAS w/o Apr 3

  • What number are you trying for? 3, but first two are adopted / being adopted

    Month/Cycle? 5/4

    WTO/TWW? TWW

    Ages of other child(ren)? 4 and 5

    Any thoughts about this cycle? Well I was supposed to test this morning and I completely forgot, so I guess subconsciously I must not think I have a good chance.

    Any questions? Nope

    Rant/Rave? My kids have actually been well-behaved the last few days and it’s so nice. Hopefully it sticks.

    GTKY: Do you remember your dreams? If so, what’s the strangest one you’ve had recently?
    I remember my dreams when I wake up, but can only remember them after if I tell someone right away. Kind of gruesome, but the only recent dream I remember is one where I was murdered, but that’s not too strange since I’ve been watching a true crime TV show recently

  • What number are you trying for?  2

    Month/Cycle?  5/5

    WTO/TWW?  TWW (CD 21)

    Ages of other child(ren)?  2.5

    Any thoughts about this cycle?  We gave it a good shot - got the same timing that we did during the cycle our daughter was conceived (O-1, O, and O+1)!

    Any questions?  No

    Rant/Rave?  My progesterone levels are still maxed out, which I don’t think they’ve ever done this far past ovulation. FX!

    GTKY: Do you remember your dreams? If so, what’s the strangest one you’ve had recently?  I have had a lot of strange dreams lately. The weirdest one was that I was forcibly divorced from my husband (who was some rando and not my real-life husband) and just as forcibly married off to some guy named Mike who had in turn been forcibly divorced from his own wife. I guess we all lived in some dystopian universe where certain people had the power to force marriages and divorces at will. Anyway, Mike’s wife was forced into a remarriage with some other guy, and the dream ended with her tearfully screaming at her new husband about how great Mike was and how grateful God Himself should be that Mike liked Him. 

    …I still have NO idea what possessed my brain to come up with this stuff. None.

    What number are you trying for? Third living child. This will be my sixth pregnancy 

    Month/Cycle? Ten months, six cycles

    WTO/TWW? Benched due to a recent loss, but confirmed ovulation yesterday! So TWW but not one with a potential for conception 

    Ages of other child(ren)? 2 and 6

    Any thoughts about this cycle? I am hopeful we won’t we benched as long as we could be! I tracked down to zero on HCG and confirmed ovulation with an opk yesterday! I was worried it would take my body awhile to “reset” so this is good news. 

    Any questions? Anyone have a fridge they love? 

    Rant/Rave? Rant. I hate our fridge. It broke the day after we moved in eight years ago and we’ve been limping it along ever since. It periodically goes out, my husband fixes it, we lose hundreds of dollars of food, then it’s good for another several months 😂👎 today it broke again. I’m done. 

    GTKY: Do you remember your dreams? If so, what’s the strangest one you’ve had recently? I love whole other lives in my dreams. This morning I had a dream where I drove a white suv, I had two girls (I have a boy and a girl) I worked at a children’s consignment shop and we lived in a ranch style house. My husband was a plumber. The dream was like I picked the girls up from school, took them with me to work for the afternoon, grabbed chil fil a on the way home (I’ve never had it) had a minor argument with my husband about a light (I wanted to replace it) we cuddled on the couch to watch tv and I fell asleep and then woke up. It can actually be kinda disorienting because I wake up and for a few minutes I’m still sorting out reality. 



  • @britters314 ooooh I’m a true crime junkie!!!! But I agree, the dreams following interesting stories are a bit off! 😂 

    @geekprincess26 oooh FX for you! I feel like I compare every cycle to DS’s cycle… totally normal, right? 

    @charmedlifex3 we got a Frigidaire that we love for our new house! It’s the gallery collection. 

    What number are you trying for? Baby #2

    Month/Cycle? 13/9 AL

    WTO/TWW? TWW

    Ages of other child(ren)? 3

    Any thoughts about this cycle? I am strangely positive. We had excellent timing despite me having a cold. 

    Any questions? Not at the moment

    Rant/Rave? What an interesting FW we had. I came down with a terrible cold Saturday, right as my LH levels started going up. Then we took down the front of DS’s crib to make it into a toddler bed. So one of us has to sit with him until he starts falling asleep (he’s a wanderer). Last night I knew was O, so DH woke me up to DTD after DS fell asleep 😂 we got it done! 

    GTKY: Do you remember your dreams? If so, what’s the strangest one you’ve had recently?
    I very rarely remember dreams. I’m only good at that while I’m pregnant. Lol
  • What number are you trying for? 3

    Month/Cycle? 4/2

    WTO/TWW? WFFET 

    Ages of other child(ren)? 4, 1

    Any thoughts about this cycle? Cautiously optimistic! 

    Any questions? Nope

    Rant/Rave? I dislike interviewing. Also end up wired afterward and don’t sleep well. Yay for overactive brain. Anyway, don’t have my hopes up as I’m just barely qualified for this one, but it would be cool! 

    GTKY: Do you remember your dreams? If so, what’s the strangest one you’ve had recently? Sometimes? Most recently, I was interviewing for a new job, but the interviews were in a castle. My current boss ended up being there for a conference so I spent my interview tour time trying to be natural and also dodge him randomly though out the castle. Weird. 
  • @britters314 fx for you! Hope your kids keep behaving, too :)

    @geekprincess26 ah, the comparisons. Guilty over here, too! Fx for you! 

    @charmedlifex3 hate it when the fridge goes out! Spent 2 weeks last fall living out of a dorm fridge and cooking for 5 people. Ugh. We have a Fischer and paykel now and it’s awesome! Got it from one of those places that does good deals for ones that are floor models, etc. 

    @ejoseph16 fx for you! And congrats on the move to the toddler bed :) 
  • @charmedlifex3 Ouch.  The thought of life without a reliable refrigerator makes me shudder.  I'd be at the end of my rope if I were you, too!  I hope your next update brings news of the sparkling new fridge gracing your kitchen.

    @ejoseph16 Go, Energizer Bunnies!  Hope your determination pays off in the form of a BFP. 🤞
