1. TTC #2, Cycle 3 post D&C, CD-1. Had high hopes for last cycle but it wasn't to be.

2. I tested yesterday....obviously it was negative, I thought it might just be too early (CD 24).

3. H is having major knee surgery today so we'll be on the bench for at least 2-3 months.

4. Still have a few more presents to get, and a little more wrapping. One thing to mail. It's just me, H, and DS this year so it's pretty low-key. Half of our presents are just in cardboard Amazon boxes.

Hi, I'm new! I thought I'd join in!

1. Where are you in your journey? TTC #1, cycle 4, CD5.

2. Testing this week? Nope

3. Any AW's, hair pats, randoms? Nope, just kind of still in awe that I'm even here. LOL, MH and I were firmly in the no babies ever camp until about a year and a half ago.

4. Have you decked the halls and wrapped all your presents? The halls are as decked as they're going to be, but 90% of presents still need to be bought, much less wrapped!

1. TTC #1 after a loss. Waiting for CD 1 after D&C.
2. Nope, still waiting for CD1.
3. It's been 3 weeks today since we found out baby stopped growing, my d&c was the same day. It appears that the bleeding has finally decided to stop. So other than that overall I'm doing okay.
4. Decorations done. I still have a few things left to buy and everything left to wrap but I'm off next week so that will get done then.

1. Where are you in your journey? TTC#1 Since July 2015 cycle 4, CD 6

2. Testing this week? Nope.

3. Any AW's, hair pats, randoms? I'm sick of long ass cycles. It's very frustrating.

4. Have you decked the halls and wrapped all your presents? LOL. I haven't even finished shopping. No decorating since we leave on vacation on the 24th.

1. TTC #1 since December 2013, still waiting for AF to start after my d&c

2. Nope

3. It's been 8 weeks since my d&c with no period in sight. I kept having cramping over the weekend and I was really hoping it would show up, but nothing. I emailed my nurse this morning about starting progesterone to get things going. Hoping we can still do FET #3 by the end of January, but it'll probably end up being February.

4. We did an early Christmas with my family this last weekend, so presents have already been wrapped and unwrapped. DH still needs to buy for his family who we'll see on Christmas day. And I decorated the week after Thanksgiving, so things have been up for a little bit.

1. Where are you in your journey? TTC #2 since July, 3rd cycle after loss.

2. Testing this week? Not anymore.

3. Any AW's, hair pats, randoms? After my weird 6 day spotting/non period last week I was just really confused about where I was in my cycle. My opks were getting darker and some part of my brain said "oh hey, maybe they're picking up hcg, take a pregnancy test!" So I did and it was very obviously positive, 2 of them. I spent all day yesterday thinking and hoping that I was pregnant but the test today was stark white. I'm pretty sure the test just picked up my LH surge, which they weren't supposed to do. These were off brand "easy @ home" pregnancy tests from Amazon. At least I think I most likely ovulated yesterday and we had pretty good timing of -2 and -1. 

4. Have you decked the halls and wrapped all your presents? Halls are decked. About half of the presents are wrapped and I need to pick up 2 more small gifts.

1. Where are you in your journey? - I think cycle 16? CD 4

2. Testing this week? - Nope, see CD 4. Actually, I tested Sunday morning, neg, started spotting Sunday afternoon.

3. Any AW's, hair pats, randoms? - Met with the RE on Tuesday. I need to get a varicella vax, and we're hoping to keep trying on our own for a few months after my recent HSG test, which increases odds, but we'll probably try 2 cycles of IUI starting in April or so.

4. Have you decked the halls and wrapped all your presents? - Decorations have been up for a while, but I have a few more gifts to wrap. H and I will exchange on Saturday night, then on Wednesday morning it's off to visit my family.
