1. Where are you in your journey? Cycle TTC #1 since 2/13. CD20 2. Testing this week? I might this weekend even though I'm not due for 8-9 more days 3. Any vents, thoughts etc? So last cycle AF was the shortest lightest I've ever had, like literally one day. These last few weeks I've been feeling completely exhausted- which I can always explain away between work and working out and the dog getting up at 5 am everyday and life in general. And also I feel like I'm gaining weight which I shouldn't be because my calorie intake is the same that it has been for weeks and my brain is mush. Like for real can't think on my feet at work and forget it if you give me something that I have to read out loud. I know I've been semi MIA lately but I can't always deal with the girls who complain that "its been sooooo long" when its only been 3-4 cycles. I check in periodically to see if any of the regulars got their BFPs and I'm so grateful for all of your support. So thank you! 4. If you could choose to get pregnant with multiples, would you? At this point I would take anything I'm so over this whole TTC thing. Some cycles I really want it to happen and others I'm like F-this shit

1. Where are you in your journey? 2. Testing this week? 3. Any vents, thoughts etc? 4. If you could choose to get pregnant with multiples, would you?
1. TTC since Nov. '13, C1 AL, CD 26, 10dpo 2. I am going to do my best to wait until Sunday (when AF is due), and only test if my temp has not dropped. No promises, though. No symptoms yet. 3. I really hope we're successful this cycle. Of course I hope that every cycle. But I'm weary of trying, and not particularly happy about being in this boat again after the mc. I just want to be pregnant again! 3. I would not choose to. If it happened I would not be particularly thrilled about it. But I'm sure I would get used to the idea and eventually be excited. Financially it would be a strain for us.
1. Where are you in your journey? Cycle 1 TTCAL, CD 10. The doc told us to wait a cycle before we TTC so we're using protection.
2. Testing this week? No
3. Any vents, thoughts etc? I have an appointment on 11/12 with the OB/GYN to make sure everything is fine after the D&C. Then he'll give us the green light to start trying again. Can't wait!
4. If you could choose to get pregnant with multiples, would you? Yes! I'd love boy/girl twins
1. Where are you in your journey? TTC #2 since Sept 2013. CD12
2. Testing this week? No. I'm on bcp's right now for my IVF cycle. I go for bloodwork and an ultrasound a week from tomorrow and then the real fun begins!
3. Any vents, thoughts etc? I've had to tell more people than I would have liked about IVF. Thankfully everyone's been super supportive but it's still weird to talk about this stuff, especially with people who have no clue about what's really involved in TTC!
4. If you could choose to get pregnant with multiples, would you? No! Being that i'm doing treatments I know this is a possibility, but I've already done the newborn thing with one. 2 (or more?!) newborns at once is a level of hell no one should go through ;-)
1. Where are you in your journey? Cycle 1, CD 19. I went off the pill in late August and had a 44 day cycle with a super short (~2 days max) and light AF, which is totally out of character for me... but I figure, it's just my body adjusting. I thought I may have O'd last week, but really, I'm not temping and just can't be certain.
2. Testing this week? Nope. I won't test until CD 28 at least.
3. Any vents, thoughts etc? I'm going a little nuts. I'm feeling EVERYTHING. And of course, googling doesn't help. I've got this weird feeling in my lower abdomen (way low) that almost feels like random pinching or dull pressure. 50% of the internet tells me it's early signs. 50% tells me I need to calm down. I need to listen to the latter
4. If you could choose to get pregnant with multiples, would you? 100%. I have no idea why, but I'd love to have twins. We have friends who have triplets and they are some of my favorite little people.
1. Where are you in your journey C3, CD 17 2. Testing this week? No 3. Any vents, thoughts etc? This month is shot. Between my vacation and getting sick, my temps mean nothing and our timing was awful. 4. If you could choose to get pregnant with multiples, would you? Oh please no. Daycare would be a fortune.
1. Where are you in your journey? Cycle 10, CD16 2. Testing this week? OPK's... no O yet, the last 2 cycles it was CD18 & CD19. 3. Any vents, thoughts etc? Nothing new TTC related. Our 1st wedding anniversary is Sunday, so I am excited to celebrate with dinner and some quality time together. 4. If you could choose to get pregnant with multiples, would you? H would LOVE to have twins. I would rather not. I wouldn't be upset if it happened- we want 2 kids, but I would prefer 1 at a time.
1. Where are you in your journey? Cycle 10, CD20, ovulating today. 2. Testing this week? Nope. 3. Any vents, thoughts etc? My HSG came back normal:) I am hoping for good news this cycle then maybe I can skip the blood tests on CD3. 4. If you could choose to get pregnant with multiples, would you? Absolutely not. Zero interest
1. Where are you in your journey? Cycle 2, CD3 2. Testing this week? Nope 3. Any vents, thoughts etc? Just glad my 45 day cycle ended. That was such a mind fuck. 4. If you could choose to get pregnant with multiples, would you? I would love twins, but anything above twin would stress me out!
1. Where are you in your journey? Just month #2. 2. Testing this week? Nope 3. Any vents, thoughts etc? We are starting off casually, just seeing what happens since next year would perhaps be slightly better timing but I'm concerned about my PCOS. DH is perhaps taking it a little too casually for my liking? 4. If you could choose to get pregnant with multiples, would you? We want two, and I'm 100% sure based on family history and my own low tolerance for pain that I'm going to hate pregnancy. So despite the fact that it might be doubly miserable, I'd probably say yes given the choice.
I think the lead up to the HSG was worse than the actual test. It's very quick. I hope you both have quick and painless tests!!
I have to wait until FRIDAY ? thanks to a busy busy week.
Are you guys taking your SOs? Mine's at the hospital and I'm nervous, H is driving me and I think I want him to come in with me. am I being a wimp?
My DH was traveling when I had mine done but if he had been around I prob would have brought him. I think it would have been nice to have his hand to hold. I don't think you are being a wimp at all!
I JUST got back from mine. I had a pretty easy experience and a great doctor. I hope everyone has good experiences as well. DH didn't go with me...but it was totally fine.
I don't know where I am in my cycle right now. My period should be starting in 3-5 days, but I don't have sore boobs and I didn't get any EWCM this month that I was aware of. I'm guessing ovulation didn't occur yet, which will delay the period.

DH didn't go with me. He had meetings at work he couldn't miss, so I went on my own. I didn't have any issues and felt fine afterwards...the nurse was nice and offered to hold my hand, but I was pretty distracted with watching dye run through my tubes on the video monitor. That stuff is amazing!

1. Where are you in your journey? 2. Testing this week? 3. Any vents, thoughts etc? 4. If you could choose to get pregnant with multiples, would you?
1. First treatment cycle! 2. Nope, IUI is Wednesday 3. I don't have a good feeling about this cycle, just want to get through so we can move on. 4. The idea of having multiples as children is cool with us -- both my cousins have twins, we have the space and stuff for them. The idea of a multiple pregnancy terrified me, though, from a high risk perspective. I have recurring triplet dreams and whenever I meditate I see 3 cribs in a nursery.
