WAYDTGKU (BD/TI/IVF/FET/Benched/etc.): BD, waiting for embryo adoption match

WTO/TWW: WTO (CD 9)

Timing/Testing/CS:

How are things going? Any questions?: I had a dream last night that we were matched with embryos. Hopefully it’s prophetic and we are actually matched soon lol. I’ll probably reach out today and ask for an update.

R/R: I’ve had bad headaches the last two days because of the sudden temperature drop. Not fun.

WAYDTGKU (BD/TI/IVF/FET/Benched/etc.): BD

WTO/TWW: Waiting for my period.

Timing/Testing/CS: All BFN but I wasn’t too hopeful. Our timing was awful. I’m not even sure I can even count this as a month we actually tried.

How are things going? Any questions?: I think I get complacent with regular cycles with a temp shift by CD14. I was like clockwork prior to my CP. It’s amazing how that CP messed up my hormones. I can still tell that they aren’t back to normal. I told DH I’m going to track less next month. I’ll still temp but I’ll wait to load my temps until it’s been 3-4 days so I’m not just staring at my chart.

R/R: Temps are back above freezing. I’m suppose to go hiking tomorrow. The options were up a mountain or out to a lookout that wasn’t near mountains. Considering the avalanche risk that warmer temps bring I chose the lookout.

@emeraldcity603 sorry for the BFN. I know that feeling of just staring at the chart waiting for some new insight to hit me. FX for a predictable, clear temp shift this next cycle.

@britters314 hoping for a good update with matching!

WAYDTGKU (BD/TI/IVF/FET/Benched/etc.): 2nd Femara/cocktail/TI cycle

WTO/TWW: WTO, CD12

Timing/Testing/CS: shooting for EOD timing this week, hoping to O by end of the week, and the MH heads out shortly after 😔

How are things going? Any questions?: I’m having night sweats — like consistently freezing during the day all day but then our room is 66 degrees and I’m sleeping under a sheet only otherwise I wake up overheated and sweating. I think it’s thyroid-related but one of my friends this weekend said I should get checked out to make sure I’m not peri-menopausal 🙃

R/R: We had a great weekend with friends, but now we want to move back, and suddenly the thing coming up next is no longer this weekend but now deployment. I’m OK but MH is struggling and it’s definitely helping us decide we’re done with the military life.

emeraldcity603 · February 17

@virginiaham I worry about perimenopause. Hopefully that’s not the case for you. How long will your husband get deployed? Does he know any specifics? I knew a family that was given a week to relocate once and that blew my mind. How do you even mentally wrap your brain around needing to suddenly move but also needing to make it happen in a week?!

@britters314 I hope your headache improves. Temperature fluctuations cause my wrist to ache and it’s annoying. So I feel you on that.

britters314 · February 17

Update: We have a match! We get two weeks now to look over the family profile and medical history and decide if it looks good to us, but I’m sure we’ll be able to decide within just a few days. It’s exciting but also kind of nerve-wracking lol

emeraldcity603 · February 18

@britters314 that’s so exciting! Congratulations!

ferret22 · February 18

@britters314 Yay! That's great news! Hope it's a good match.

@virginiaham I worry about that too. How old are you again? Hopefully it's just a weird flux, our bodies are always doing strange things.

WAYDTGKU (BD/TI/IVF/FET/Benched/etc.): TI

WTO/TWW: WTO

Timing/Testing/CS: Day 1 boo 😠

How are things going? Any questions?: Back to trying.

R/R: Rant: I had gallbladder surgery last summer and since then my periods have been horrible and I get super nauseous with each one. I don't necessarily know that it's connected or just a weird coincidence but it's awful. It feels so much like pregnancy nausea and basically means for a week or two each month I can smell everything and feel constantly like I'm on the verge of throwing up. What a mean trick for my body to play on me. 🙃

emeraldcity603 · February 18

@ferret22 That is a mean trick for your body to play. That sounds awful. I’m sorry you’re dealing with it. I hope you see some improvement with that as time goes by.

WAYDTGKU (BD/TI/IVF/FET/Benched/etc.): BD

WTO/TWW: TWW

Timing/Testing/CS: I’m about 6 DPO so rationally I know it’s too early to test but I'm impatient.

How are things going? Any questions?: Same old. I had some very mild cramping last night but it could also be AF coming. We shall see.

R/R: I have a 3 day work week this week so it can’t possibly be that bad (famous last words).

emeraldcity603 · February 18

@fifilala516 6DPO is on the cusp of being able to test. It’s so hard! I got more indents this cycle (line showed after test was dry and no color…so no question) but I’m also still using the same tests from the boxes from last cycle. So that’s to be expected. I hope this is your month!

emeraldcity603 · February 19

I am waiting and waiting on my period. I know it’s coming because my temp has been dropping but it’s taking its time. I’m hoping this means my hormones are leveling back out and my LP is lengthening. If I could get to 14 days I would be very happy.

fifilala516 · February 19

UPDATE - I started AF, which means I had a very short luteal phase if Inito predicted ovulation correctly. I'm curious to see next month's chart since I'll be able to start fresh. On the bright side, I have a business lunch next week at a really nice/expensive sushi restaurant so at least I'll be able to indulge.
