konapoppy , my fingers are crossed!!


1. Where are you in your journey?
  TTC #1, cycle 9, CD 17


2. Testing this week?
  Nope, I'm officially in the TWW

3. Any AW's, hair pats, randoms?
  I'm dealing with a Game of Thrones hangover from last night's episode and the hours worth of scouring the internet to rehash/theorize/speculate.  I feel brain dead today lol.


4. What was your favorite boy band as a kid?
  NKOTB for sure.  They were my first concert!

[ridethelightning]

1. TTC #2, cycle 6, CD 27

2. Nope. Well I may do one more OPK today. I had a pretty dark line Friday, but then MH was at work and I was at my mom's so I didn't test anymore. I feel like I ovulated this weekend, but I'm hoping it's today!

3. None this week that I can think of.

4. Definitely *NSYNC

[grover]

1. TTC#1 since 3/13. Waiting for June AF to start so we can do IUI.
2. Nope
3. Todays my 30th bday. I thought that I'd have a kid (or two) by now, since we started a few months before my 27th bday. Doing okay now, but really dreading next weekend.
4. NSYNC. And for LOLZ, 2Ge+her

[preppy]

1. Where are you in your journey? TTC #2, cycle 2, CD 4
2. Testing this week? Nope.
3. Any AW's, hair pats, randoms? I know it's only cycle 2 but I'm already anxious that this will take over a year like it did with S. I need to chill out.
4. What was your favorite boy band as a kid? I was never really into boy bands much.

[FishChicks]

Fingers are crossed that your IUI works konapoppy. I'm also hoping that today is O day for you ridethelightning.

1. TTC #1 since Oct '15, cycle 1 after 3 losses.

2. I have a saline sonohysterogram on Friday, when I should be CD 13. I'll start using OPKs after that, if they don't find anything, and hope we don't miss O.

3. My mom is coming to visit for a week this Friday. I'm excited to see her, but if I O this cycle, it will be while she's here. Nothing like trying to find 'private' time when your mom is around. I would say I feel like a teenager again, but heck, I didn't even mess around at home back then!

4. I wasn't much of a music person. I saved my crushes for the various TV boys.

[kellikans]

1. TTC #1 since 12/13, one loss

2. Nope

3. I had a pretty rough weekend. I've been really depressed and mopey and start crying at the drop of a hat. Have an appointment with my RE on Wednesday to see if she will have me do something different for my next FET. I'm also anxious to see if my insurance will continue to cover. I'm mostly looking forward to getting a second opinion on the 17th, though. I really want to see what another doctor will say.

4. NKOTB

[bina]

1. TTC#2 cycle #5 since H has been home.
2. This morning, BFN, AF is due Saturday so it was a little early, probably test again Wednesday.
3. My endocrinologist gave me a referral to a reproductive endocrinologist so I'm hopeful about that.
4. Nsync, I loved Lance Bass so much.

konapoppy I'll keep my fingers crossed for you!

[sterl724]

1. Where are you in your journey?
Ttc since 3/15. 1 loss, cycle 3 after loss, cycle day 15.

2. Testing this week?
Was doing opks. Got a positive late last night/today. Now just waiting it out.

3. Any AW's, hair pats, randoms?
While I'm so ready for it to be our turn for a baby, my brother and sil are due literally any second. Their first was a micro-preemie at 28w3d and spent 94 days in the nicu. SIL is 10 days out from her due date. I'm so stoked that I will actually get to live on baby right away and not have to wait 3+ months.

4. What was your favorite boy band as a kid?
I know everyone claims you couldn't love both, but BSB and Nsync. bina I had a huge Lance crush as well!

[hamster]

1. Where are you in your journey? TTC#1 CD23, 2nd cycle after EP.

2. Testing this week? I've been using OPKS, not because it really mattered because I'm not sure I can read those damn Wondfo's and I wanted to figure it out before go time.

3. Any AW's, hair pats, randoms? I'm thinking of going for it this cycle. I planned on waiting until next cycle so it had been three months, but at the length of my cycles it'd be 7ish weeks before the possibility of a BFP. It's been 2.5 months vs the "ideal" 3 and that seems close enough.

4. What was your favorite boy band as a kid? BSB, obvs. Though I can't deny my love for Hanson in the early days.

[mrsw101109]

Cycle 2, cd22

I'm going to try to hold out as long as possible before I test. But I make no promises. :-)

I'm feeling really pessimistic about this cycle. My temperatures are all over the place in a crazy manner. I don't know if I ovulated. I should have been stricter about temping at the exact same time every day. I made an appointment with a new OB/GYN who specializes in infertility for next week to talk about TTC and also to be an established patient should I become pregnant

Nkotb all the way. But I was more into Bon jovi.

[glauren]

1. Where are you in your journey?
TTC #2 since October '15, cycle 4 after D&C, CD2

2. Testing this week?
Starting OPKs on Sunday

3. Any AW's, hair pats, randoms?
I guess that whole "more fertile the first 3 cycles after m/c" wasn't true for us. Bummer.

4. What was your favorite boy band as a kid?
I wasn't much of a boy band girl - does Silverchair count?

[kellikans]

glauren one reason I was so hopeful for this transfer... My RE was all like, "oh a lot of times your body remembers what it's supposed to do and its easier to get pregnant." Yeah, right.

[glauren]

Sorry you weren't one of the mythical more-fertile-after-m/c ones either, kellikans. Hugs.

[konapoppy]

Any updates bina?
Hugs glauren and kellikans. One of my friends old me that the only thing that got her over her mc was getting pregnant again. My first loss was a little over two years ago, so that isn't going to make me feel better...

[bina]

Still negative Thanks for asking konapoppy

[PatBenatar]

1. Where are you in your journey? TTC#2 since October - 1st cycle after a MC in march

2. Testing this week? No, it would still be too early

3. Any AW's, hair pats, randoms? I just went to the dentist today for the first time in a loooong time. My teeth feel so clean and I only have 1 cavity surprisingly

4. What was your favorite boy band as a kid? NKOTB! Jordan Knight was my fave
