Congrats to the ladies who got a BFP this last week. ((hugs)) to everyone who needs them. I hope this new year will bring good news for everyone! 2013 is our year ladies!!
1. Where are you in the TTC/Cycle journey?
2. Any AWs/Vents/Rants/etc?
3. QOTW (GTKY)- What are your travel plans for this coming year? If you have none is it because of TTC or do you just not travel much?
Cycle 3 CD 25 (in a 33-37 day cycle) I believe I O'd yesterday but not temping so unsure.
2. Any AWs/Vents/Rants/etc?
I hate working out of town so much it is hard on TTC. I am quitting my job in April/May and will be working at a job closer to home from then on. I am making a lot more at my OOT job so I want to work here for a few more months until we get our Efund back up to what is was at before.
3. QOTW (GTKY)- What are your travel plans for this coming year? If you have none is it because of TTC or do you just not travel much?
DH and I are planning a trip to California April 20- May 4th. We are both so excited. (DH has never been anywhere in the states before.)
1. Cycle two off BC. CD 6. Next cycle we will be officially TTC. We are waiting two cycles off BC per doctor recommendation. 2.My first cycle off BC was 44 days and then I had the lightest and shortest period I have ever had. Hope that continues! 3. No vacations planned for this year. We took a big vacation at the end of last year thinking that we wouldn't get one this year with TTC. If I don't get pregnant we will probabbly plan something.
2. Any AWs/Vents/Rants/etc? Not really, I've been feeling pretty down lately in general about a lot of things. I feel pretty irresponsible TTC right now, but I just don't care.
3. QOTW (GTKY)- What are your travel plans for this coming year? If you have none is it because of TTC or do you just not travel much? Yes! We're going to Costa Rica in early March for our best best friends' wedding, I'm SO excited about that!!
Costa Rica is amazing I want to come!!! If I'm not pregnant I can fit in a suitcase.
1.) First cycle, CD 21 - not charting yet. Anxious. 2.) Feeling things that makes me wonder if I'll get a BFP, but it's probably in my head 3.) Hopefully, Hawaii in the spring to visit family.

1. Cycle 8, 3 or 4 DPO
2. I had a cold during the time I ovulated, and my chart is messed up. I took my temp Sunday and it was pretty high, so I discarded it because I was waking up continuously during the night and I knew it was inaccurate. So I have a missing temp on the day I more likely ovulated. FF says CD10, I think CD11 or 12, because my OPK was super positive on Sunday (CD11) and still positive Monday. Argh. At least our timing was good.
3. Hopefully we will go to the shore this summer. Also DC in the late spring.
1. Cycle 4, CD 3. 2. I had high hopes for cycle 3, but I can just roll those over into this one. Onward! Last cycle was really the first one where I felt like we got it in terms of great timing, not stressing about when I would o, etc. I think my body is finally starting to settle into some regularity after bcp. 3. We travel a lot, but are taming back our summer vacation plans to something that we can do whether or not I get knocked up. Right now, the plan is a big road trip through a bunch of national parks and cities in the northwestern US and into Canada in June. I am excited!
1. Cycle 1, expecting Cycle 2 to begin on Saturday. 2. I swore I saw a shadow line on the test this morning, and then I realized I'm just a nutjob. 3. We are going to Orlando for eight days in February to visit H's parents. We're doing a day in St. Augustine, a day at a state park seeing manatees, a day at Epcot...I'm excited! I am also going to travel for work at least once, probably to Germany in June.
1. Cycle 3 CD13 2. I'm in a much better place this cycle and feeling much more positive. Hopefully that leads to an O all I want is an O. Pregnancy can wait till next cycle if I only get one thing! 3. We are planning as if I'm not knocked up. Ski trip to CO in March, NYC in late March, wedding in England in April, weekend in the Bahamas early summer or early fall, and a couple trips to see family in there as well.

1. Cycle 3, CD21. Waiting to O? Or maybe 4DPO?
(I played with dummy data for the next couple of days and unless my temp drops again tomorrow, FF will give me dashed CHs at CD17. I'm still getting EWCM but OPKs are as negative as negative can be. We are still having EOD sex just in case, but I wish my chart looked nicer!)
2. I'm confused. See above.
3. We travel a lot! There are a number of weddings on our calendar this year and we will have to fly to all of them. We're also hoping to take a trip to Scandinavia this summer. Obviously we'll change plans as we need to; as of right now, if I get a viable pregnancy this cycle, there are one or two weddings that I probably wouldn't be able to travel to. No use thinking about that until I know one way or the other, though!
1. Where are you in the TTC/Cycle journey? Cycle 2, CD 45-no temp shift this cycle so no ovulation maybe, no signs of AF. I swear my cycles were not this long before charting. I've been off bc for about a year so I thought I was more regular. We are continuing EOD BD for the longest cycle ever....
2. Any AWs/Vents/Rants/etc? See above. I am so jealous of people with 28-30 day cycles. If it is not happening, I want to start again stat.
3. QOTW (GTKY)- What are your travel plans for this coming year? If you have none is it because of TTC or do you just not travel much? We usually travel a lot but put off any plans this year. Since nothing is happening, I am thinking of booking a short trip in March to Seattle and Vancouver.
My cycles started to get longer after I was off BC for over 6 months. I ended up having to take pills to jump start my cycle. And I've now been off BC for almost 2 years and my cycles are finally down to 33-37 days. (With a random 45 day cycle in the middle somewhere.)
I hope your cycle starts to become more regular and shorter soon.

1. Where are you in the TTC/Cycle journey? TTC#2 for 3 years. IVF#2
2. Any AWs/Vents/Rants/etc?
3. QOTW (GTKY)- What are your travel plans for this coming year? If you have none is it because of TTC or do you just not travel much? Probably none. All of our extra money has been going toward IF treatments.

1. cycle 3 o'ing this week. 2. H has a cold and he just got home from oot and is moaning and groaning. He better be ready to go today and tomorrow because he is leaving tomorrow until Sun. Ugh! 3. We are going to Maui the end if this month !
3. We have our annual family vacation to Rehoboth Beach with DH's family. We will probably do another trip, just me & DH but not sure where we will go yet. Totally jealous of everyone going to Hawaii, I want to go back so much!

Thanks! What pills did you take to jumpstart?
I can't remember the name of it. My doctor was the one that suggested it after no AF for around 80-90 days.
As your doc and see what they say. It did induce one AF but then I was back to 40+ days so he put me back on BCP for 3 months an then I started to have a period every 33-37 days. It was a long painful process. But I'm happy it's done and I am back to being somewhat normal now.

1. Cycle 8, CD 5
2. My LP was only 8 days last cycle. :-( I made a doctor's appointment for Monday, and I'm really nervous.
3. Just a couple long weekend trips and, depending on pregnancy, we might go visit my mom at Thanksgiving. DH's extended family is planning a trip, but we used a ton of vacation days (and a chunk of money) visiting the other side of his family last summer, so we're planning to sit this one out. I love seeing family, but it's kind of a bummer to have so few vacation days that if we want to see them it means no "real" vacation for us.
Trying for #3; FET 8/18 -- BFN. Leaving things up to chance for now... After three years, three IVFs, and two FETs, we finally have our miracle babIES!

I have taken Provera and Prometrium (not at the same time) to start AF. They both worked for me. I would take them for 10 days and usually start AF about a week after taking the last pill. I didn't have any side effects.

I think I took provera. I was also on it for 10 days then had AF the day after I was done the provera. (Doctor said any time between 1-15 days after is normal for AF to start.

TTC#1 for almost a year, 2DPO No AWs or vents really this week. We'll travel, but I never really plan my travels more than 2-3 months out. 3 months is already pushing it. Likely Italy and the US, like always, and maybe some (long) weekend trips to other European cities (London, Paris, Berlin, Antwerp are places I'm thinking of now, but nothing is ever final until I've booked a non-refundable ticket).
1. Where are you in the TTC/Cycle journey? Cycle 9, CD8
2. Any AWs/Vents/Rants/etc? We start basic IF testing after this cycle (well, H will get a SA after O this cycle, I'll start bloodwork and have a HSG next cycle). I'm excited but scared at the same time.
3. QOTW (GTKY)- What are your travel plans for this coming year? If you have none is it because of TTC or do you just not travel much? Our friends may be having a destination wedding, so we'll try our best to make that! Other than that, we're focusing on saving this year; maybe we'll take a few road trips here and there.
