1. Where are you in your TTC Journey? TTC since feb 2013. I don't know how many cycles anymore. CD5
2. Are you testing this week? Nope
3. Any TTC Randoms/Stories/Charts to share? Last cycle was the longest but that was all due to stress. I had/have singles on my hip and groin so we took last cycle off. Hoping to get back into things this cycle
4. Favorite piece of clothing? Hmmm I love my workout clothes all of them. If I'm not in uniform for work - khaki and blue then I'm in workout clothes. I have way to many of them.
1. Where are you in your TTC Journey? Cycle 6, CD 13
2. Are you testing this week? No
3. Any TTC Randoms/Stories/Charts to share? I had an endometrial biopsy yesterday and OMG I think it was the most pain I've ever been in. I almost passed out and had to hang out and recover for like 15 min after. The nurse said it is basically like labor contractions so I now have that to look forward to. She also said women often scream during the procedure. Yikes! But at least it's done and I feel pretty normal today.
4. Favorite piece of clothing? I have a pair of work pants that feel like pajamas but look really nice. I'm wearing them today after my traumatic day yesterday.
1. Where are you in your TTC Journey? Cycle 9, CD5
2. Are you testing this week? I'll start back on my OPK's around Saturday. This is my first post-BC/Post-TTC Break cycle though....so I may start them earlier in case this cycle is wonky. I normally O on CD13 or CD14 so I'll start back soon.
3. Any TTC Randoms/Stories/Charts to share? I started back on acupuncture yesterday. I know some people don't really see a benefit, but I really felt like I benefited from it in the past. I was excited to start back.
4. Favorite piece of clothing? My leopard Lucky flats. They are so classic
1. Where are you in your TTC Journey? - TTC since 2013, cycle 2 of Clomid (100 mg this time), CD 8
2. Are you testing this week? - will start OPK's in a a couple of days
3. Any TTC Randoms/Stories/Charts to share? - clomid is killing me this time. Might be because of higher dose but probably also because I decided to take them in the morning this time. Last cycle pretty much the only side effect I got was nightly hot flashes. I figured I'd rather deal with hot flashes during the day. Ha! I haven't had a single hot flash this time day or night but instead I (and my poor DH) have had to deal with feeling depressed and weird crying for no reason mixed with almost uncontrolable rage. Fun times.
4. Favorite piece of clothing? My light blue J Crew painters tee. I just love the colour of it and wished I could find other clothes in the same shade of blue.
1. Where are you in your TTC Journey? Cycle 7, CD 9
2. Are you testing this week? Maybe OPKs at the end of the week
3. Any TTC Randoms/Stories/Charts to share? Remember how I was so excited to get my first solid crosshairs on FF last month? It just occurred to me that it might have been a fluke. I got strep throat with a fever right at CD 12-14. The fever broke on CD 16. It just happened to line up with a normal O time. I'm anxious to see if I get any crosshairs this month.
4. Favorite piece of clothing? Pajamas. I own way too many pairs and love them. I change into them by 7 every night. It's bad!

1. Where are you in your TTC Journey? Cycle 6 TTCAL CD5
2. Are you testing this week? no
3. Any TTC Randoms/Stories/Charts to share? I started taking 50mcg of B6 daily in order to lengthen my luteal phase. Last month was only 10 days so I am trying to lengthen that. What is this I have been hearing about baby asprin helping? Anyone?
4. Favorite piece of clothing? My black cotton sheath dress. I wear it everywhere! It looks dressy but the cotton makes it comfy. It is my go to piece for after work appointments or days I have no idea what to wear.

1. Where are you in your TTC Journey? It'll be a year next month. 5DPO
2. Are you testing this week? Nope... trying to wait this one out until 14DPO if I get that far!
3. Any TTC Randoms/Stories/Charts to share? I start Clomid next cycle if no BFP this month. We'll be on vacation if/when I get my period, so I'll have to hunt down a CVS or something to fill it when we're up there since we'll be coming back either CD5 or 6 (depending on when my period comes) and I have to start on CD5.
4. Favorite piece of clothing? I practically live in jeans except in summer where I love dresses!

Where are you in your TTC Journey? My first appointment is tomorrow, hoping for good news but really unsure since I had bleeding this weekend
Any TTC Randoms/Stories/Charts to share? My friend, who would never even hold a baby and was very openly "i hate kids" would act like her and I were in some we hate kids club even though I was always "awww babies, let me hold them", is ready to have her 2nd baby this week. Now she still treats me like I hate kids and the most non-maternal person in this world and I just don't get it. If I get bad news and she makes one of these comments, I pretty much ready to pounce on her and be like "ENOUGH THAT WAS YOU, IT WAS NEVER ME"
Favorite piece of clothing? Jeans, anytime, any place!!!!!!

shingles? yikes!!!
Yep. It started as burning pain in my hip flexor and it band and then a rash appeared. Needless to say it makes things semi uncomfortable...
1. Where are you in your TTC Journey? Cycle 8, CD 6. 2. Are you testing this week? Nope. Won't even start OPKs till late next week. 3. Any TTC Randoms/Stories/Charts to share? We are going to be on vacation in San Diego during most of my fertile window this cycle. I am hoping that being relaxed and not working will help cycle 8 be the winner. 4. Favorite piece of clothing? It used to be my beautiful Shoshanna high waisted skirt but I left it in a hotel never to be seen again:( My second favorite would have to be a black Shoshanna shift dress. I just love the designer Shoshanna overall!

1. Where are you in your TTC Journey? TTC#2 since Oct'12, TTCA2L, CD 23/ 7 DPO
2. Are you testing this week? Nope
3. Any TTC Randoms/Stories/Charts to share? I had to cancel my RE appt last Friday because I had to make an emergency trip back home to be with my parents. I'm going to wait to schedule after I see how that cycle plays out. FX that I won't need to.
4. Favorite piece of clothing? My long cable cardigan. It's my longest surviving piece of clothing that I own. I bought it when I first got married (8 years ago) and it has some weds and tear to it but it's still wearable (and extremely comfortable).
1. Where are you in your TTC Journey? Cycle 11, CD 9
2. Are you testing this week? OPKs
3. Any TTC Randoms/Stories/Charts to share? We are creeping up on the 1 year mark and have an appointment in Oct with the RE. I also decided to call an acupuncturist to see what they can do and I have an appointment with a therapist to talk to them about my depression related to our difficulties getting pregnant as well as other personal issues. I feel like both are helping me take control of something I have no control ove.
1. Where are you in your TTC Journey? - Just stopped progesterone yesterday. Onto Cycle #10
2. Are you testing this week? no
3. Any TTC Randoms/Stories/Charts to share? 11dpo I was bummed to get a bfn, then my family decided we're all going to go to Disney at the end of March. If I got a bfp I would be 37 weeks and wouldn't be able to fly. So then I was hoping I would get a bfn at 15dpo which I did. But I kinda feel like an emotional jerk, like how dare I hope for a bfn and yet I'm all wth our timing was great. TTC emotions are the suck.

4. Favorite piece of clothing? I have a few broken in pairs of Juicy velour pants I live in once I get home from work. All of them feature some sort of paint drips
