This is the Waiting to do Something thread posted once a week (usually on Mondays - sometimes not) for those of us that experience long, extended cycles. Whether it's medicated cycles, long (45ish + days) cycles, postpartum/breastfeeding, TTA, on the bench, or something else, this is the place we gather throughout the week to discuss and vent about our slightly unique situation.
Sorry I posted this and then disappeared last week. I have been busy and stressed.
Numbers: CD14
Circumstances: We're a mess
RRNFNSQ: I am pretty certain that we are going to be TTA for a while. We've decided that we really need a break. I think physically and mentally... But also financially. We have gone through so much in the last year and our savings isn't where we thought it would be. With the possibility of needing medical intervention very much on the horizon I think we feel better for now if we wait. With the thought that once we decide we are ready we will go straight to an RE.
It takes a weight off. But I am still sad. This is 100% not where I saw us right now. Not even with things related to TTC. Just everything. And it sucks. Really really sucks.
GTKY: I won tickets to a minor league baseball game through a walking program at work. Very surprised, I never win anything!

Hiiiiiiiii. Long time no so ladies!!!
Numbers: I am not currently tracking.
Circumstances: TTA.
RRNFNSQ: Sooooo I have not been around much because 1) life is crazy busy and 2) I was having a pity party for myself. TFAS has been pushed back another year so being around here was tough. We agreed we wanted another kid in February 2015 and here I sit with my IUD still firmly in place in my ute continually pushing back TTC. But it is for the best even though some days it is hard. And there are THREE pregnant ladies at work so that makes me a little sad but for now I am just focused on losing weight, saving money, and doing some things to fix up the house.
GTKY: What is the last thing you won? $50 on a scratch ticket!
RRNFNSQ: I'm relatively sure I ovulated at some point in the last week, so now I'm just waiting to see if a period comes. If/when it does, I have the paperwork to get my day-3 blood work done. H's sister is coming with her 7 year old and 8 month old to stay with us for several days. I feel bad because I want to just hibernate through the start of the testing.
GTKY: I won $4 on a scratch ticket earlier this year. I don't win things often.
TheEleventhHour I am sad my new phone does not even know your tag you need to be around here more often! I am sorry you have to keep pushing back TTC. I hope you can keep yourself distracted enough during this waiting period. How is the house? What kind of stuff do you have planned for it?
icedtea sorry about the bad timing I hope that you have a good time with your family and they provide a good distraction before you start with testing.
Ugh Rama so so so many hugs. I can commiserate. I am just sad. And there's not even anything that's going to change it. I just have to be. And trudge through life the best I know how.
Also I saw mega millions before I read $1 and I was like WOAH! Yay for your dollar though. Lol.

Thanks lady. I am going to try to be around here more. I have missed you all!
We are putting in a stone patio and a hot tub in a couple of weeks which I am SO excited for. Then we are going to save up to redo the kitchen next summer. In between I just want to touch up paint and other smaller projects that won't break the bank!

Ahhhhh. Hot tub! Jealous! That will be ahhhhhmazing! I like the idea of little projects just to keep you going without breaking the bank.
I would like to refinish a table over the winter. Not even going to pretend I'll have enough time this summer. Lol.

thanks gabride2010, I'm totally ok to get it on vaca, just scared the monitoring will cause an issue. So it either needs to come like right now (not happening) Or not until Sept 8th

If you'll have me, I'd like to join, I feel a little silly thinking about TTC again so soon but I can't help it! And I miss GKU like whoa so I'm hoping to come hang out when I can.
Numbers: n/a
Circumstances: almost 1 month pp, breastfeeding. Will likely TTC next year, we'll see how it goes.
RRNFNSQ: just feeling all the feels, its probably mostly mommy blues and after waiting so long for my first kid I'm anxious what trying for a second might be like.
GTKY: What is the last thing you won? $80 at a casino. Then I spent $100 on food and drinks so..
