WTDS Week of 10/31

[gabride2010]

Hey y'all. I hope everyone had a wonderful Halloween!

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.

Circumstances:

RRNFNSQ:

GTKY: What is the best piece of advice/wisdom you have been given?

[cnf2013]

Numbers: Unsure

Circumstances: TTA until December

RRNFNSQ: I've been of my birth control for over two weeks now and still no bleeding. All the bloating, no period. 'Scuse me, body? Can we figure this shit out please?

GTKY: Goodness, I'd have to revisit this when I'm not sick and brain dead. Advice I constantly tell my students I can impart of everyone though; Not everything in life is fair, focus on you, you cannot obtain the information from the book via osmosis so please take it off your head, keep your clothes on, and so many other wonderful gems.

I hope your period comes soon cnf2013!

Cycle/Month: 7/10

Circumstances: TTC #1

RRNFNSQ: CD 1 today I had a 9 day LP too, which sucks. Hopefully that was just a fluke.

GTKY: What is the best piece of advice/wisdom you have been given? To do what I/we want in life and with our lives. Go for the opportunities I/we want. People regret the things they didn't do more than the things they did do.

Boo to a short LP gabride2010. And seriously, I've never wished to see my period show up before.

Numbers: n/a right now

Circumstances: waiting for pp AF

RRNFNSQ: same as usual. Just hanging out and waiting.

GTKY: What is the best piece of advice/wisdom you have been given? You can't control other people's actions, only your own.

Hiiii. Joining back in. I have been a terrible poster lately.

cnf2013 I hope your body gets it together soon!

gabride2010 Sorry about CD1. I hope the short LP was a fluke.

Numbers: Cycle 2 since getting copper IUD out.

Circumstances: TTA until ... who knows. Probably another year.

RRNFNSQ: I am starting a new job and I am REALLY excited about it but I want to be there a year before TTC. I cannot preform a lot of my job while pregnant so I want to get settled there and get experience before getting pregnant. But it is a little frustrating. I just want another baby! But I am trying to stay positive and tell myself if we have to wait we will be able to save money, DS will be older and maybe out of daycare, etc.

GTKY: What is the best piece of advice/wisdom you have been given? There is always something to be grateful and happy about. No matter how bad life gets there are always positive things around!

teraiin I hope your period comes soon too!

HAI!!!! TheEleventhHour. I've missed you around here! Congrats on your new job. I feel like we've talked about this, but you're still in Oncology, right?

[TheEleventhHour]

gabride2010 Hi lady! Yes I am still in oncology. I am moving to our hospital's outpatient clinic and will be doing infusions. I am so excited!

[gabride2010]

Thanks alwayscheese! Sorry about your mini periods. I hope that stops soon. Sorry about all of the co-workers' pregnancies. That is tough!

TheEleventhHour Yay for staying in Oncology. Outpatient Oncology Infusion is where I started, and I absolutely loved it! I hope you do too!
