Cycle Day: 27
TTC Cycle #: 6 (but more like 10ish months)
POAS date: TBD!
Baby #: 2
Your situation: I have an awesome 26 month old daughter who was our rainbow baby after our first MC. I just had my second MC back in March at around 5 weeks. I don't have a diagnosis or anything yet, but I have crazy long and unpredictable cycles (ranging from 30-58 days). I'm hoping to see my family doctor soon but I keep putting it off for some reason...
What's happening this month: Just trying to hit every second day at a minimum until I ovulate... I'm tired!!

Here we go again...
Cycle Day: 12
TTC Cycle #: 16
POAS date: 7/13 or so
Baby #: 1
Your situation: At this point unexplained infertility. All of my bldwrk is normal. Assuming DH's SA was as well because no call from GP. Appt for ultrasound and RE booked for end of Aug.
What's happening this month: The usual. Hoping to BD ED during my fertile week (this week) and use OPK's, if I remember.
Chart link:http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/@sslm: Jeepers, here's hoping you O soon!!! What a pain..
-
Cycle Day: 17
TTC Cycle #: 2
POAS date: Not sure how long my luteal phase is so I'll probably wait until I get home from California on July 8th... if I can wait that long.
Baby #: 1
Your situation: Hubs and I have had two CPs and 1 MC.
What's happening this month: First month on Femara and Ovidrel. Ovulated on CD 12, which was exciting because I haven't ovulated since my CP in November.
Chart link: http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/552e9e@sslm: Hubs and I were trying to BD every other day last cycle, but I never ended up ovulating. It was exhausting, so I feel for you. Keeping my fingers crossed for you!
-
Good luck to all! Hoping July is a month full of BFPs!!!
-
Good luck to you guys! I'll know in a day or two if I'll be joining you in July. If not, I'll be your cheerleader!
-
On to another month! Good luck everyone!
Cycle Day: CD 17. Should O tomorrow.
TTC Cycle #: 4 after our 22w loss.
POAS date: 7/6
Baby #: 2
Your situation: (totally optional!) Had a mc before conceiving my 22 month old DD. Our surprise pregnancy last summer ended in termination for medical reasons in December. We were advised to wait 3 months before TTC and are now on our 4th cycle. Our daughter is amazing but I really want to give her a sibling. After carrying a baby for nearly 6 months though and then saying goodbye, I am absolutely terrified of going through that again.
What's happening this month: finishing up work for the summer this week. Hoping we can relax and make a baby this summer (or tonight!)

@delight: I can't even imagine what you've been through
I really hope July is your month!!!
-
@HellOnHeels: @KrzyRiver: thanks ladies! Still waiting but my temps have kind of evened out so I'm taking that as a sign it might be near
-
@sslm: thanks. We all have our own tough stories though. I do try not to dwell on the past and look towards the future but it is hard some times. Good luck to you too.
I am still waiting to O! Ugh. CD 19 here and finally a positive OPK. I hope I O today or tomorrow.
-
Cycle Day: 14
TTC Cycle #: 18
POAS date: July 10
Baby #: 1
Your situation: unexplained infertility, completely healthy, no idea what's going on.
What's happening this month: just had my third and final iui today (w/ Femara and Ovidrel trigger), expecting to ovulate tomorrow morning. The only thing I'm doing differently is taking a baby aspirin daily, and cutting out exercise, alcohol and caffeine at the advice of my doctor. This is going to be a very cranky tww -
And..... Here we go again.
Cycle Day:18
TTC Cycle #:14
POAS date:7/8 or 7/9
Baby #:1
Your situation: so far unexplained. HSG was normal. They did see a small ovarian cyst on my left side but dr said not to worry too much. I go back end of August for a pelvic ultrasound to check on it. DH is FINALLY getting his SA test done monday 6/29. We do have an RE appt for 7/8 which we ready postponed from June. My GYNO is still involved with my case. I ran all the tests with her for insurance reasons so we wouldn't have to pay an arm and a leg. Hopefully we'll rule out DH next week and then on to the next plan.
What's happening this month: I've been doing a lot of research on chemicals that may be interfering with fertility. I'm trying to not use plastics and also will try and cut down on coffee. I only have 8oz/day. I've also been eating Brazil nuts every morning and trying to get more vitamin D in.Wishing you ladies all the positives in the world. This struggle is so difficult and the only ppl who know how I feel are you ladies. Thank you for the support/advice these last few months.
Good luck to us all -

Forgot to mention that im having my very first acupuncture session Monday. Hope it helps
-
FX Everyone! Lots of love and BFP vibes for you all!
-
Thinking of you all - fx for July!
-
Good luck ladies! I'm hoping that we have lots and lots of BFP's this month. I'm pretty sure I'll be joining you in a few days.
-
I have a friend's baby shower tomorrow and I know it's going to be a difficult day. I know I should probably not attend baby showers but when it's a friend, I feel bad. Hoping to be very strong tomorrow. I'm going to attend for very little and then leave...
-
@LoveHope: I'm sorry, that's going to be really tough. Try and think about your love for friends and (try to) keep your mind off babies.
I feel like I've put my life on he during this journey, I never want to go out anymore or see friends in fear that someone will announce a pregnancy. It's so ridiculous!
-
@MrsKRB: I completely agree with you. I've certainly missed out on certain things. I'm going because I love my friend but it won't be easy.
-
@LoveHope I'm sorry you have to go thru that. I haven't been invited to one since my last miscarriage, but it does seem like EVERYONE on FB is announcing they're pregnant, posting shower photos, asking pregnancy questions, and showing off their new babies. I feel awful for not wanting to see any of it. I actually got off Facebook for about 3 months because of it. Hopefully that'll be us soon. *Fingers crossed*
-
Anyone here on Ovidrel? This is my first cycle using it, and I'm trying not to get my hopes up with all the pregnancy symptoms cause I know that's a side effect of it. But I took the shot 9 days ago and the symptoms seem to be getting worse and worse. I don't want to get too excited, because hubby and I have been trying off and on for 3 and half years. And I'm afraid I'll take it really hard even tho this is only the 2nd cycle since we realized I wasn't ovulating regularly.
-
@KrzyRiver: I've been off facebook since October because of that. I couldn't bear to see photos of pregnancy announcements. It was hard so I just stopped going on social media. Here's to hoping we'll be making a special announcement soon
-
Good luck to all you ladies I wish the best for you all
-
@sslm: can you change my POAS to 7/10 at your next update? I O'd later than expected.
-
Cycle Day: 1
TTC Cycle #: 10
POAS date: 7/26ish. Should O around 7/11-12
Baby #: 1
Your situation: (totally optional!) We are a married lesbian couple trying to get pregnant using a known donor (fresh sperm, not from a bank). No known fertility issues, I've had bloodwork, ultrasound, HSG, and we've had a SA done, all normal. We tried with at home inseminations for 8 months before starting IUI last month.
What's happening this month: IUI with a different donor and midwife. Our donor has moved out of the area and is still willing to donate for us but the timing is bad this month. I'm hoping that maybe changing donors will do the trick. I think I'm also going to try clomid this cycle.

7/8: krzyriver
7/9: LoveHope
7/10: Delight, MrsKRB
7/12: 2farmmoms
7/13: hellonheels
TBD: sslm -
@MrsKRB: I cut out all of those things in the TWW when we were TTC #1 and I got pregnant 2/3 times (1 miscarriage), so who knows! Maybe that's the trick! Fingers crossed for you
@LoveHope: Good luck this month, I hope this is it for you
@2farmmoms: Good luck!!
-
As for me... still waiting on O. I feel so frustrated!!! And tired. And our vacation is starting on Wednesday and I had hoped to O by then (since, ya know, staying at the in-laws is not the best place to make a baby haha). Blah. Sorry, I am such a downer lately!!
-
@sslm: it is SO frustrating waiting to O. I thought I had timed everything perfectly this month based on last month but O'd almost a week late. So our timing isn't Awesome at all. Waiting to O is way worse than the TWW for me. I hope you O soon. I hope staying at the in-laws doesn't hinder things too much. You can feel like teenagers again
-
@KrzyRiver: this is my 3rd cycle using Ovidrel and I never feel any symptoms from it. Good luck!!!
@sslm: just be extra quiet
-
Hope you ladies had a wonderful weekend! DH did his SA this morning so hoping to have the results soon. Anyone know how long it take
S for results to come in? -
@LoveHope: We get ours back the next day, but I've heard of some places taking longer. They have to actually DO the analysis within an hour, so the results are *there* almost right away - you could always call and ask when they'll release them to you.
-
@sslm: sorry you're still waiting! How frustrating.
Can you change my poas date? It's 7/26. O should be around 7/12. Thanks!
-
@ms.line: thank you! Great to know. I'm just itching to know the results
-
@LoveHope: when dh got it through my Obgyn it took about a week. When he had it done through his urologist and the RE, we found out a few hours later.

Hopping in
Cycle Day: 21
TTC Cycle #: err, 14? I lost count, sadly.
POAS date: 7/5, blood test scheduled for 7/7
Baby #: 1
Your situation: (totally optional!) We have been trying a little over a year with zero success and no known issues after doing all the testing. Went to an RE at the year mark and now on our last IUI cycle before IVF.
What's happening this month: This cycle is IUI #3, with Clomid on days 3 - 7 and the Ovidrel trigger. I'm 6dpiui and just waiting it out. Had an acupuncture session last week the day of the IUI and another one tomorrow. I feel like a lot is riding on this cycle... -
@MrsKRB: this one is being done through my gyno. I'll call tomorrow to see if they already have results.
-
@YogiRunner: lots of positive vibes to you. I hope this is your month.
I really hope July is your month!!!
