2. Any testing this week?

3. Non-BFP AWs/vents/randoms?

4. Do you care about March Madness?

[katespade]

1. Where are you in your journey?
TTC #1 since May, Cycle 8, CD3

2. Any testing this week?
Nope.

3. Non-BFP AWs/vents/randoms?
Last cycle ended up anovulatory again, but at least the progesterone seems to be working to shorten my cycles up. I'm doing one last progesterone only cycle, and then I'll be starting Clomid with my next one. Fingers crossed.

4. Do you care about March Madness?
Not at all.

[blt08]

1. Where are you in your journey?

TTC #2 from Dec 2016. After three losses we're on our way to an RE but we can't get in for another month. 


2. Any testing this week?

Nope. FW, should O tomorrow so just BD. 


3. Non-BFP AWs/vents/randoms?

I scheduled an acupuncture appointment for Thursday. 


4. Do you care about March Madness?

Not in the slightest. 

[jennistarr1]

TTC#2 Since July, CD 31
I usually try and wait until CD35 and it would probably be wise to know before St. Patrick's day
So....I went out with one of my mommy friends and kind of figured out that she was on coke
I think March Madness is fun...HoneySpiders organization through the heart has brackets for 10$ as a fundraiser I plan on doing!

[megstoo]

1. Where are you in your journey?
ttc 1, cycle 1, cd50

2. Any testing this week?
nope - I just finished progesterone so waiting on AF

3. Non-BFP AWs/vents/randoms?
I just finished progesterone on Friday so waiting on AF to arrive and then we'll start clomid (cycle 2 with clomid) this week

4. Do you care about March Madness?
I really don't but I did join the office pool. I just literally flipped a coin for the matches.

[pnwmama]

1. TTC #4 since Sept. natural m/c in. Nov. CD 25

2. AF should be due Friday so I’ll test then. I didn’t track this cycle at all, so I don’t know for sure if/when I O’d. We BD’d everyday CD 11-18 so we’ll see. 🤷🏼‍♀️

3. It’s supposed to hit 60 degrees this afternoon. I’m beyond excited!

4. Not really.

[TBD]

1. TTC #2, cycle 3, CD 27

2. Should have tested Saturday but didn't - keep expecting AF to arrive. I might test tomorrow? Or Wednesday?

3. I think I just made up my mind that I want to move before DS starts Kindergarten in the Fall to a new district/school for a dual language program. This is going to totally throw our summer into pure panic mode.

4. Not one iota.

[melsamoony]

Good luck TBD

1. TTC #2 since August after loss in December cycle 4 cd 12
2. Started OPK's today
3. I hate, hate, hate DST like so much. It sucks.
4. I dont care about it but do participate in a pool for work and with my family.

[compassrose]

I'm still here. Since forever.
I'm getting my MRI on Weds to make sure I don't have a bicornuate uterus. Then I have a follow up with the new RE surgeon to schedule my surgery for April (hopefully for a uterine septum removal).
I am super claustrophobic and not looking forward to the MRI.

[kermit]

1. Where are you in your journey? TTC #2, cycle 5, CD15

2. Any testing this week? OPK's. finally got a high reading today, i usually O today so guess it'll be late or not at all this month. I'm so over it.

3. Non-BFP AWs/vents/randoms? Not much going on. I've been getting up early most weekday mornings to do yoga but couldn't make myself get up today. oh well, i'll do something this afternoon.

4. Do you care about March Madness? not really.

[jennistarr1]

@slk4117, I'm really sorry

I need to test myself and I'm so scared

I have really bad cramps right now and my first thought is...miscarriage. Not that my period is coming...I skip right to worst case scenario.

[katespade]

@slk4117 - FX that it's just too early!!

I'm just ready to get this cycle over with so I can move on to the next one, which will include Clomid, progesterone, and acupuncture. I'm so tired of sitting around and waiting to ovulate, and then being disappointed when I don't. Again. Ugh.

[melsamoony]

Uuuuuuugh getting negative OPK's. I always ovulate on cd 15 and here I am on cd 15 with my OPK still negative. Eff this

[lifetaketwo]

compassrose how did your mri go?

1. TTC #2, cycle 6
2. Nope
3. We keep getting teases of spring and then slammed with snow. It looks like there may be yet another one next week.
4. Nope, but we actually watched a pretty close woman’s game that caught our attention at the bar last night.

[melsamoony]

Finally a positive opk. Cd 17

[Deleted]

1. Where are you in your journey?
I think I'll be stepping back from GetP. I'll be back when I finally get my PP period.

2. Any testing this week?
2 BFNs because I haven't been feeling well and hormones do that to me. Turns out it's just BFing hormones, no AF and no baby.  🤷🏻‍♀️

3. Non-BFP AWs/vents/randoms?
I'm a hormonal yo-yo and I'm not pregnant or getting my period... it's a weird place for me.

4. Do you care about March Madness?
Only enough to listen and respond when my DH talks basketball.

[jennistarr1]

No drinking for me on St. Patty's day, BFP! Sticky baby thoughts please

[katespade]

Congrats, jennistarr1!

[katespade]

Ugh. I’m sorry, @slk4117.

[pnwmama]

Congrats, jennistarr1!

So sorry @slk4117. 😞

AF was due Friday, but still isn’t here. I took a test Friday morning and it was a BFN, so I’m just waiting. I’ll test again this Friday if AF is still MIA. My cycles have been pretty wonky since m/c and I didn’t temp, so who knows.

[melsamoony]

Congrats jennistarr1

[compassrose]

Congratulations jennistarr1!

My MRI actually went fine lifetaketwo. I was able to keep my head almost out, plus the power of valium made it bearable. I don't have my appointment until a week from Tuesday, though, so I'm not sure what they found.

[blt08]

Congrats jennistarr1!

[lifetaketwo]

Congrats jennistarr1 !!

[lifetaketwo]

compassrose head in vs head out made allllll the difference for me. Glad it went well!

[jennistarr1]

Thanks everyone...DOES NOT FEEL REAL. If it's okay, I'm going to stick with you guys until at least my first appointment. I have a history of miscarriage and even with my successful pregnancy, I had 2 major bleeding episodes.

[melsamoony]

So apparently my body's new thing is uti symptoms the day after ovulation. It has happened the last 2 cycles and I would really like it to stop being a thing.

[compassrose]

((jennistarr1)) Are you getting a beta doubling draw? Hopefully that would reassure you in the meantime. Pregnancy after a loss is such a mindfuck. I hope everything goes smoothly for you this time.

No! Doctors office didn't last time around either. I actually had wanted to switch practices but the midwife practice I had my heart set on closed. The other midwife practice has really mixed reviews. So just to get the appointment scheduled I went with my old practice.

I'm so sorry. FWIW, I was able to get an appointment with my current practice right away in my second pregnancy when I called and said I was pregnant with a history of miscarriage. May be worth a call to any other OB practice you were considering. (The midwives here won't even see you til 8-10 weeks).
