Happy Wednesday! Check in here!

In honor of the happy hump day threads MM used to (still does?) do,, let's consolidate all of the intros.

1. Where are you in your cycle/TTC? How long have you been trying, when do you plan to start trying, etc?

2. Any news, AWs, or vents to share? (TTC or anything else)

3. For a non GP question, how into the Olympics have you been this year?

1. We are on cycle #2 of this round of TTC. We originally started in July 2011, I got pregnant in October 2011 and m/c in January 2012. We had to wait 6 months, so we just got started TTC again. I got ku pretty fast last time, so I am hoping for similar results again.

2. I am currently on DAY 38 of my cycle and I am not pregnant. GRRR. My cycle is acting weird right now and I am taking Provera to try to straighten it out, but this is frustrating.

3. DH and I have been watching the Olympics non-stop. I am very excited about the final match for Women's Beach Volleyball. Go USA!!

I like the check-in thread, good idea mimosas.

1. We really started trying in May, but I have longer cycles (35-36 days) so I'm only on cycle three right now. In the 2WW now!

2. In addition to having longer cycles normally, my first cycle when we started TTC was something redonkulous like 70 days. It was back to the normal 35 last month, but I feel like it's going to take us even longer to get pg since I don't have as many opportunities as I would with a shorter cycle.

3. I.am.obsessed. I DVR it every night from 8 to midnight and spoilers as much as possible. I've never been into it like I am this year and it's kind of embarrassing. lol

HI!

I am not sure if I ever posted here, but I received a BFP about 2 1/2 weeks ago! My first doctor's appointment is next week.

I will do a separate post!

Woohoo! Congrats!

1. Where are you in your cycle/TTC? How long have you been trying, when do you plan to start trying, etc?

I'm in the 2WW right now (since yesterday) and waiting sucks! This is our 4th cycle trying/3rd cycle charting and I'm hoping that the 25 percent chance per cycle will add up to 100 percent in the 4th cycle. (Yes, I know, no such thing, but a girl can hope, right?)

2. Any news, AWs, or vents to share? (TTC or anything else)
I'm getting geekier by the day. It's 5pm here and I just now realize I haven't had lunch, because I've been coding a website all day. It's a totally new experience for me to actually tweak code, so I'm going a little crazy. It's fun though!

3. For a non GP question, how into the Olympics have you been this year?
On a scale of 1 to 10 I'd say 1. And that's just because I did watch the opening ceremony AND checked out the fencing results once. Otherwise it'd be -23.

Hi!

1. Where are you in your cycle/TTC? How long have you been trying, when do you plan to start trying, etc?

I am about to start CD1...boo boo. But now we get to try again, right? This will be our third cycle TTC. We've been married almost a year and are in our early thirties, so it's time to get this show on the road!

2. Any news, AWs, or vents to share? (TTC or anything else)

We our getting our bathrooms renovated, which is very exciting. They left early today so I get to go to the pool!

3. For a non GP question, how into the Olympics have you been this year?

We've had it on every night. I wish I could find the indoor cycling, guess I should look it up. I've always thought that was a fun event.

We are just trying TTC -- cycle #1. So yep, I'm a newbie...but learning a lot!

Just making the decision to TTC was huge for us, and my husband is being incredibly cut and supportive about it. It's really sweet:-)

3. For a non GP question, how into the Olympics have you been this year?

We live in the UK, so it's pretty much inescapable! We went to see swimming the first weekend, and it's pretty much been on the TV nonstop the whole time:-) I'm going to be in major withdrawal next week....

We're on cycle #6 of actually trying. I'm not temping, but I am charting my period/symptoms and using OPKs. H is 31 and I'm 29; we've been married 5 years and together for 11.

2. Any news, AWs, or vents to share? (TTC or anything else)
I've been really positive so far about TTC and not getting worked up when my period starts each month. But it's starting to get to me. My BFF got an unexpected, but welcomed BFP recently and though I'm WAY excited for her, I never thought she'd be pg before me.

I have been an every night weed smoker for the better part of the last 6 years. I quit last week and feel really good about it. The last time I tried to quit, I spent the first week SUPER irritable and annoyed. This time hasn't been nearly as hard. Also, even though there's no link between female infertility and pot, but I'm hoping it will help our chances this month.

3. For a non GP question, how into the Olympics have you been this year?
I love watching! I HATE watching with H. He doesn't "get" the Olympics hype and is constantly running his own negative commentary. I tell him to shut up or leave.

I love the Olympics, but since I am back to work, I cannot watch them. They are only broadcast during the day here.

• Cycle #2 I guess? Been off BCP since March but only had one period since then. The rubbers are off starting THIS WEEK LOL I guess we'll officially start trying the next time we get all romantical all up in here, hee hee.
  
• News is that my co-worker just announced she's PG. :-| :@ :-( <-- my reactions in that order. BUT then my VP told me I'm getting a nice bonus in September so HELLO baby fund!
  
• SO into the Olympics, but have to rely on the nightly broadcasts since I'm also at work during the day and can't watch (work comp is evil and on lock-down). I still haven't seen Gabby's gold-medal winning All-Around performance, and have missed all of synchronized swimming, boo hoo! I wonder if Netflix will have the inevitable highlights DVD that will surely be trotted out during closing ceremonies??

My H isn't quite so negative but he def doesn't get as into as I do. Though I will say that I did not cry at the opening ceremonies. Usually I'm all :-( but not so much this time. Atlanta? I was a MESS, lol.
