Waiting To Do Something 10/24

[nuggetrn]

I started this earlier and then got caught up and never posted! So here we are...

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.

Numbers:

Circumstances:

RRNFNSQ:

GTKY: Favorite thing about fall?

[nuggetrn]

Numbers: CD9

Circumstances: TTA

RRNFNSQ: DH is being difficult. In the sweetest of ways but still. We are supposed to be TTA til January, and I made plans to get my wisdom teeth out. We both are ready to start now. And part of me really wants to and the other part of me isn't sure. Plus I was all set to do this whole oral surgery thing. So. Knowing he wants to start just makes me want to start NOW.

GTKY: Bonfires! Cool weather, I can wear my jeans. Opening the windows and cuddling up with some warm blankets. Mostly bonfires and being outside.

Mind if I come play?

Numbers: Not a gosh darn clue

Circumstances: TTA until December, then TFAS.

RRNFNSQ: I got my period back at only 9w PP and it was super regular as always. Started the mini pill and my cycles have been all over the place since. Knowing it screwed them up I opted not refill last week when I ran out. A week plus later and I'm still waiting for AF to show up. Pretty sure I'm fertile right now given all my signs and symptoms. And considering the few periods I've have on the mini pill have all been mid pill pack, I'm not surprised. Good thing we're still stuck living with my folks for a few more weeks. Yay abstinence...

GTKY: Favorite thing about fall? I love the weather! Jeans, hoodie, boots, perfection!

Numbers: n/a

Circumstances: waiting pp AF

RRNFNSQ: nothing really just waiting

GTKY: Favorite thing about fall? Pumpkin spice stuff

nuggetrn, my H is all about having all the babies. It makes it hard to not give in. I totally get the feeling. I know my H is dying for us to start again and was even willing to do so while living with my parents, but FMLA regulations rule the time line here.

alwayscheese, adulting is kind of the worst. I hate it and it's hard.

Busy! My new job is kind of soul crushing. I'm not happy there and I'm insanely overworked, but they pay well, so I'm trying to see the light. It's affording me a fancy new house that, god willing, we should be getting into in two weeks. Three at the most. Five months of living with my parents is about 4 months and 3 weeks too many. 

How are you? J is so stinking cute!

If you're in the city I think you're working in I'm not surprised it sounds like a rough district 😭 But yay new house!!! I've been oogling the pictures and it looks amazing!!

Thanks! Doing good, town is raising our taxes an obscene amount which is worrisome since I'm not working and we had intended for me to stay home. Who knows now. My mom is in the hospital, booooo. But over all life is good! H got bumped up a bit at work so he should be getting more overtime (yay money!)

I am in the city district you're thinking of. It's rough, yes. 

Sorry about your mom, I hope she gets better soon. And yay for your H and money!

Hi twohopes, your avatar is pretty.
And I just came here last week. So I think new people are welcome but I'm not the boss

You can be the boss, that's cool. Lol.

[nuggetrn]

alwayscheese no worries if your rants aren't pregnancy related! They really don't always have to be, it's just so often that's what it ends up being. Hopefully you and your DH can work some things out and you start feeling better about being an adult. Lol. I know I can relate!!

cnf2013 Haiiii! So crazy to me that you are back here! I can relate to having to live with parents. It is not at all fun. Hopefully time flies by! Now I think I have gathered you are waiting for a house to be ready? What are the details?! I love house stuff

Welcome twohopes! We love new people!!

Hi! I'm excited to be back! We're building a new house. We moved back to our hometown and are living with my parents until our new house is done. Only a couple more weeks, which is super exciting. Being an adult and l8ving back at home isn't my favorite thing, lol.

We did that too! We were with my mom for like 7 months. The last month I moved to my MIL's while they were on vacation. Could not take it anymore.

We'll have been here five months when we move out. So ready to be in my own space again!

Hi guys, thanks for the warm welcome.
TW *losses and child mentioned*

Numbers: Not sure what this means ...

Circumstances: Jumping back into TTC in a month or two, we're going to try for our second child. Our first was born after two losses and a diagnosis of a chromosomal translocation in my husband.

RRNFNSQ: jeez, what is this ?

GTKY: Favorite thing about fall? Sun that feels warm on your skin, but does not burn.

Lol. Sorry for our confusing terms. I feel like we should add a disclaimer since we get new people every week. I laughed a little. Oops.

Numbers: Whatever you want to tell us... Cycle days, days past ovulation, how many months you have been trying...

RRNFNSQ: Rants, Raves, No flame no shame questions. So anything that's on your mind. Pregnancy related or not.

[twohopes]

OK, let's retry *TW: losses and living child*

Numbers: CD 3. TTC on and off for a while since the spring.
Circumstances: Determined to go all out before we move on to IVF with PGS. I decided I have it in me to endure a CP or even a miscarriage again, obviously, hoping against it. But it's the card we're dealt, so I am in.
RRNFNSQ: "At least you have one child." Trust me, I get it. It is so so so true. But. Feelings are still hard.
