Morning ladies!! And thanks for the check-in, wirt2cute!!
Where are you from: DC area
Status: CD19/2DPO - O'd kind of late this month
What are you doing this month? Humpin' like rabbits!! Also started drinking this raspberry tea blend in the evenings. Seems to be really calm and soothing.
Where are you at in your journey? Cycle #4, AL - TTC# 1
What is your mood? Still hopeful
QOTW: Name three things you and your partner appear to have in common. OOOH this is fun!! 1) taste in movies, 2) taste in outdoor activities and 3) the fact that we are not fans of FB (no, we don't have accounts!)
What are you doing this month? Temping, opk, sex, pnv
Where are you at in your journey? Right now I'm just waiting to turn an opk positive. Before the surgery I would have turned one by now but my body is not responding yet. Hopefully I will see something happen this week.
What is your mood? Happy and aggravated. H is technically off for 7 days but all the sex is not happening. I think I'm blocking my body because I haven't had a positive opk but at the same time I'm really tired. I don't want our sex life right now to be based on a positive opk.
QOTW: Name three things you and your partner appear to have in common. H and I can be lazy at times. We both love spending time with family and we both like money. He likes to save it and I like to spend it.
What are you doing this month? Vit D and temping is what I did this month. Waiting for DH to get his SA done this week and then we'll see
Where are you at in your journey? TTC#1
What is your mood? Annoyed - at my DR (see previous AW post) and a little bit at DH. I want to have all the sex and his drive is pretty low right now. So we didn't have awesome timing this month and I feel like I'm going through all this stuff to try and make it happen but DH can't "make it happen" enough for us to be sure we are getting great timing. ugh. And I can't share that with him that much because it just makes it WORSE because then he feels a ton a pressure. But I don't really want to start taking all the drugs and doing other things if I'm not going to be certain that we will be BDing enough to ensure that timing isn't the issue.
QOTW: Name three things you and your partner appear to have in common. Sense of humor, techno-geekiness and love of travel
Status: CD28 Waiting to O (maybe Oed yesterday, had spike today, hopefully it stay high)
What are you doing this month? Temping, PNV, seeing a new midwife 3/26
Where are you at in your journey? getting ready to TTC #1
What is your mood? "ugh" (is ugh a mood? I think it should be) I don't like the shenanigans my lady bits appear to engaging in, and I just want my next cycle to start already so I can start using the OPK's I got yesterday. I am happy that I am charting b/c I know how I'd feel being late, then testing and getting my hopes up. Now I at least know my ovulation was delayed and won't waste $$ on HPTs. DH is being supportive, and he pointed out that I have been under a HUGE amount of stress this month so I'm choosing to believe that its the outside stress that's delaying me and not my body being wonky.
QOTW: 1) we're foodies; 2) love of travel; 3) ability to laugh at ourselves

MA
WTO, should be today or tomorrow hopefully.
Just temping, sexing, prenatals. Have doc appt next Tues., just my annual but gonna start the conversation about "what next."
TTC #1, on cycle 7?
Mood is optimistic, it always is at this point, ha. Hoping to get at least one more BD in tonight.
Hmmm, we both love dogs, we both love beaches and tropical vacations, and we are both perfectly content curled up on the couch together doing a whole lotta nothing.
TTC since July 2014. CP March 2015. IVF #1 March 2016, 5R, 3M, 2F with ICSI. Transferred 2 on day 3. CP. Surprise BFP and then CP August 2016 (prep cycle for IVF). IVF #2: zero eggs retrieved IVF #3: 6R, 5M, 5F, 3 (2 8A and 1 11A) transferred, one "B" graded embryo frozen on day 5. BFP (at home 7dp3dt, confirmed 14dp3dt with 1552 beta) and U/S at 5w5d, 2 sacs and 2 yolks!
Where are you from: The mild almost spring-like East Coast
Status: TFAS
What are you doing this month? I'm actually not doing mich this month. I'm going to my parents during my FW so I'm not going to stress about it. Hope to get a session or two in but it doesn't look like this will by our month.
Where are you at in your journey? CD 7
What is your mood? Happy that spring seems to have arrived! I was a little bummed after last cycle but it looks like we are staying in the city for another year so I'm not in a huge rush to get KU. I'll be happy whenever it happens - sooner or later.
QOTW: Name three things you and your partner appear to have in common. Hmmmmmm....1) We both like to stay active, 2) we have similar political and world views, and 3) we love to eat good food whether it is cooked at home or enjoyed out at a restaurant.

Where are you from: New York
Status: CD20/8dpo
What are you doing this month? Nothing special. Drinking a lot of water, I guess.
Where are you at in your journey? Just chugging along.
What is your mood? Meh, not feeling very hopeful about this cycle. But hoping that I'm surprised.
QOTW: Name three things you and your partner appear to have in common. - Ginger hair (he's auburn, I'm strawberry blonde. Little dude is a nice combo of the two.) - We share a love of random dance parties in our house - Love to travel
Where are you at in your journey? I just had my 3rd PP period and #3 is 15 months old. I'm so glad AF stayed away so long. I'm currently on CD12 and waiting to O.
What is your mood?I'm still excited and hopeful.
QOTW: Name three things you and your partner appear to have in common. We both love to read, we both tend to go overboard spoiling our kids at Christmas, and we are both really proud of his nearly 30 years (and counting!) of service in the CANG.
What are you doing this month? Accupuncture! Prenatals, Vitamin D, DHEA, CoQ10 if I ever get more
Where are you at in your journey? We may put IVF off a bit more since it took so long to get the accupuncture appointment. I feel like an additional 4 weeks is not that big a deal if it means the possibility of getting things straight with me so we don't have to go to DE. And if it doesn't work... we can still do DE.
What is your mood? Ok. The accupuncturist (see separate thread) really helped and gave me hope.
QOTW: Name three things you and your partner appear to have in common.
Future planning- we both love to figure our finances and plan for the future.
Home Improvement- we're HGTV junkies. We have been doing a project or two a year as well.
Civic work- we're both really involved in a civic group. it's how we met.
From Michigan Status- TTC #2 losing count cycle 21 I think. 11dpo/11-12dpiui
Not feeling it had a meltdown last night. BFN this morning. Taking a month off to get all the 'extra' appointments out of the way and ivf in April. Technically, I'm not out yet but I'm guessing so. I'm not sure we can do more than one round of ivf. I guess this was journey and mood in one.
QOTW- our birthdays (I'm 10 hours older), enjoying a night a nice restaurant, sports- watching, attending games, playing in backyard.
Status: TTC #2 with DH (#3 for me) since July 2014 with 1 loss.
What are you doing this month? Lots of sex! Temping.
Where are you at in your journey? I have only had 1 period since my loss, but I feel good this month. We have both been really into having sex (as opposed to me trying to make it happen, or vice versa), so hopefully that means something. I also told myself the next couple months would just be about feeling happy and enjoying each other, and less stressed about ttc. We will see if I can live up to that. I am currently on CD16 and waiting to O, but I think O day is today...tomorrow's temp will tell for sure.
What is your mood? I feel good, I'm happy about where we are right now, and would be ecstatic if we got a BFP, but ok if we didn't.
QOTW: Name three things you and your partner appear to have in common. We both love to eat, especially at new restaurants. We both love to travel. We are both really outgoing, friendly people, so we have a great time at parties and such
What are you doing this month? Temping, sex every other day during FW, hoping I ovulate before DH leaves on a work trip next week
Where are you at in your journey? Currently on CD10 with some CM. It's on tonight!
What is your mood? Exhausted yet excited. I'm in education and our spring break is next week.
QOTW: Name three things you and your partner appear to have in common. 1) love of tropical vacations 2) we could eat Tex-Mex every night. We don't, but we could! 3) would rather be outside doing something active than in the house being lazy

agpjt413 please send some sexy vibes my way. I going to pick up some raspberry tea today, I need some calming moments in the afternoon.
I think the tea is helping me feel like wanting to have sexy time more!! Hope you're able to get yourself able today!! Mine is a raspberry blend w/ nettle, spearmint & strawberry.

What are you doing this month? Prenatals and Vit D is all. We are currently benched
Where are you at in your journey? Benched Waiting on AMH results from lab as well
What is your mood? To tell you the truth, I would just like to have some sexy time with the husband!!!! We haven't been able to for 4 months!!! We are cleared as of next week cause we were told no sex for 6 weeks after my D&C. Before that I had been bleeding for 6 weeks straight from our failed attempts for the cytotec to push my body through the MMC. So yeah......by the time we get to do the deed next week we have been without sexytime for 4 months . Still have to hold off TTC till after my next AF and thats hoping AMH comes back normal
QOTW: Name three things you and your partner appear to have in common. We love each other, we like food and are not picky eaters, and we love animals

What are you doing this month? Baby Asprin, PNV w/folate, charting/temping, & OPK
Where are you at in your journey? CD 28/10DPO
What is your mood? I switch between sure were out to thinking oh well maybe. My temps have dive bombed on days 10 or 11 on previous cycles. Today the are still up, but have not been very high since O so that keeps me grounded. It doesn't help that stupid FF pregnancy monitor gives you more pregnancy points when you add in cramping. If temps are still up tomorrow, I may test, but I only have one maybe jacked up wondfo left, so more than likely will hold out until the weekend even if my temps are still up.
QOTW: TV shows, parenting/discipline styles, love of traveling.

I'm so sorry boobacat. You need to graduate, like NOW!
KirstenAlecia, I hope that next week brings about a positive change for you. XO
I invited tat2mami here last week. I hope she comes over!
Where are you from: Northern California
Status: TTC #2 for eleven months, nine cycles (benched two)
What are you doing this month? OPKs, temping, acupuncture, reduced caffeine and sugar, more frequent sex
Where are you at in your journey? 5DPO
What is your mood? Like lickwed, I go between hopeful and without hope. It's still early. I don't want to get too excited about our timing this month because a BFN would feel so much worse at the end.

Where are you from? MA
What are you doing this month? Still benched for Chicken Pox vaccine #2. Started acupuncture about 3 weeks ago.
Where are you at in your journey? TTC #1 since May 2014
What is your mood? Excited to hopefully start IVF in April... but scared too. As frustrating as being benched has been... it's also been kinda nice to be off the crazy train for a while. I'm afraid of the emotional roller coaster that is IVF.
QOTW: Name three things you and your partner appear to have in common. We both love animals, we have the same political views, we'd rather snuggle on the couch, watch a movie, and eat junk food than go out and socialize.
What is your mood? Hopeful...we'll see how I feel around 12dpo!
QOTW: Name three things you and your partner appear to have in common. We both enjoy trips to the beach, have similar taste in TV shows and music, and have similar political views.

Where are you from: Living it up in NC
Status: TTC #1, Starting cycle #9 (I think) after MMC
What are you doing this month? OPKs, acupuncture, started temping again.
Where are you at in your journey? CD8
What is your mood? Starting to get the sads … just frustrated with many things in life at the moment, especially TTC related. My acupuncturist and I discussed my progress before my session last weekend and while I am improving overall, she agrees testing will only help us see if we’re up against anything else. She suggested to start with hubs getting a SA and for me to do CD3 blood work if we are not successful this month.
QOTW: Name three things you and your partner appear to have in common. 1. We’re computer nerds 2. We love movies 3. We love the beach.

Virginia
Status: CD26 10DPO(supposedly) AF was due yesterday and I've had a whole bunch of BFN's on internet sticks and FRER's
We did 7.5mg Femara, I thought I had early O'ed according to OPK and temp spike but FF says I O'ed on CD16.
We have now been TTC#2 for 1 year.
What is your mood? Crazy. I'm going crazy. No AF and a BFN's morning and evening for 5 days. I had bad lower back pain last night - it could've been from standing all day but I'm reading into EVERYTHING. My boobs are sore, very mild cramping - not like I experience with AF, no spotting, my cervix is low and very bulgy and soft. My dog is acting strange with me - like he does when I go out of town.
QOTW: We hate physical activity, we love trying new foods and travelling, we love DIY projects.
