1. TTC #1 since 3/2013. First appointment with RE is next month.
2. No, unless AF doesn't show by end of the week.
3. I randomly had one day of bright red bleeding on Saturday. Enough that I threw a pad on and junked the underwear, but then nothing on the pad or since. I also had a severe allergic reaction to food that day. I don't think the two are related, but I will pretend they are so I don't get my hopes up that it was implantation.
4. I only seem to make Chicken ala King in the winter, so I'll go with that. Haven't made it at all since we've been in this house, so maybe we'll add that to the menu later this week.

2. Testing this week? Still waiting for hcg to drop to 0, so testing that out with opks.

3. Any AW's, hair pats, randoms? Family comes to visit this week, which should be nice.

4. What is your favorite cold weather meal? Polenta lasagna. Polenta, pasta sauce, cheese. . . Mmmmm!

suzv Sorry to hear about the wondfo. I know it's easier said than done, but be kind to yourself. There is no reason for guilt. Every person brings a unique set of characteristics to the world. If you choose to kick puppies or steal lollipops from children, then you should feel guilty, but if you're living life with the characteristics you have, there's nothing to feel guilty about.

1. Where are you in your journey? Waiting for my numbers to go back to 0 after an ectopic. Hopefully the Dr will have a good sense of how long it will take this afternoon. First doctor said to wait a month before trying after they reach 0, so hopefully this one says the same.

2. Testing this week? No

3. Any AW's, hair pats, randoms? I'm just really, really relieved the worst appears to be behind me.

4. What is your favorite cold weather meal? Ooh. That's tough. I really like PW's Sunday Night Stew.

1. Where are you in your journey? TTC #2 since August, Cycle #2 after a loss.

2. Testing this week? Nope. Period should be here Wednesday. My midwife wanted me to wait 2 cycles after my m/c so we were technically avoiding this cycle.

3. Any AW's, hair pats, randoms? Looking forward to getting my period this week (weird, I know), so that we are officially back to TTC. I feel like getting back to TTC will allow me move on a little from my m/c. It's been a long two months of waiting to get back in the saddle.

4. What is your favorite cold weather meal? Tomato soup and grilled cheese

1. Where are you in your journey?
TTC #1 since 2/14. Hard to believe it has almost been two years.

2. Testing this week?
It appears to be CD1, so nope.

3. Any AW's, hair pats, randoms?
Yesterday my coworker, who I am close with, brought up an old coworkers pregnancy news. Totally unprovoked, not someone who is a friend of mine or really hers. It just hurt that she would bring it up at all, and then when she did not acknowledge my struggle.

4. What is your favorite cold weather meal?
It doesn't get too cold here, but any comfort food will do

1. cycle 12, TTC #2, 5 DPO

2. no

3. Feb 2nd is a big day for me. It's DS's 2nd birthday. We're also meeting with the RE that day, and I'll also be 12 DPO. I've cut alcohol this cycle, kept my feet and tummy super warm, DH and I tried maaaany times (rather than our EOD approach).

4. I made pot roast w/potatoes, really delicious! Also, homemade choc chip cookies.

[kellikans]

1. TTC #1 since December 2013, one loss October 2015 at 8w

2. Nope

3. Had my hysteroscopy last Thursday. I'm having heavier bleeding today and it's concerning. If it continues, I'll have to call my RE tomorrow. Post-op appointment on 2/12, and then we'll hopefully find out when we'll be able to do our next transfer.

4. Meatloaf and mashed potatoes

Hello again, GP!

I have a 16mo DD conceived after 3 losses, and we recently started TTC #2.

I spent a lot of time here and on TTTC in 2012-2013 (new name though due to a privacy issue), but now I'm mostly on MMM.

1. TTC #2, Cycle 2

2. Positive OPK yesterday.

3. That was my first positive OPK since DD was born, so kind of exciting.

4. Pizza, but that's a year round obsession.

1. I'm back again. I got a BFP Olin December and m/c last week at somewhere between 5-7 wks. So here we go again!
2. Nope on my month long wait for my period to come.
3. Besides the obvious. I'm just hoping that there is nothing causing my 2 m/c in a row besides bad luck. Which is what the dr has told me is her current diagnosis.
4. Grilled cheese (using mayo) and tomato soup is one and Pasole is my second favorite!
