I'm sitting in the parking garage waiting for the time to go into work. Figured now is as good a time as any to get us started.
Cycle/Month: 20/22
CD/DPO: 16/1
Timing: great
Testing Plans: 10 DPO
R/R/CS: nada. Feeling pretty good
GTKY: I met my best and longest friend at 6 years old when my mom drove up the street of our new house and saw kids the same age playing in their yard. She pulled in and asked the mom if she could introduce her kids. We've been friends ever since; so 23 years!
R/R/CS: I've got nothing today. Just trucking along.
GTKY: how long have you been friends with your oldest friend? Where did you meet him/her? I've known her for 25 years. However, we definitely don't talk as often anymore, so I wonder if she even counts.
R/R/CS: I don't want to get too excited but my temp is up quite a bit this morning. Strange how TTC makes me feel like a kid waiting for Christmas- I can't wait to go to sleep every night to see what the next day's temp is.
GTKY: how long have you been friends with your oldest friend? Where did you meet him/her? Our moms met in Lamaze class 30 years ago so we've known each other our whole lives. The strangest part is even though we've lived in different states since we were 12 we tend to celebrate milestones very close to each other. We were both married In 2009, bought our first homes in 2011, and sold those homes and bought second homes last year. I'm almost superstitious and just want her to TTC so I can get pregnant too!
Me: 31 Wife: 30. Legally married 2008, thanks CA! TTC #1 since 11/14 using donor sperm. IUIs Jan-Aug 2015 BFN Sept & OCT 2015 added Femara. BFN Saw RE December 2015. IUI with Clomid & Trigger Jan 2016 BFN IUI #13 with Follistim April 2016 BFFN IVF #1 July 2016. 14R, 10F, 6 Day 5 embryos. 4 PGS normal embabies!
GTKY: how long have you been friends with your oldest friend? Where did you meet him/her? She and I met my freshman year in high school. She was dating the cute guy that all my friends were crushing on, so we kinda hated each other at first. Then we realized we were awesome together, and it's been love ever since. I still see her about 3 times a month and talk almost every day.
R/R/CS: 8DPO and still no spotting! Downside though, I'm getting my hopes up. Last cycle when I started bleeding 1DPO, I immediately knew I was out.
GTKY: My oldest friend, I technically met in 5th grade when we were part of a French exchange program. We didn't *really* become friends til high school though. She lives in the Alaskan wilderness now so we don't get to see or talk to each other much. But when she does make it back to WI, it's like we were never apart.

Cycle/Month: 22/22
CD/DPO: 27/13
Timing: Good
Testing plans: I've been testing all weekend and getting BFNs.
R/R/CS: Nothing. Temp is starting to drop so CD1 should be here soon.
GTKY: how long have you been friends with your oldest friend? Where did you meet him/her? I met my oldest friend Sophomore year of high school in Spanish class. I've known her for 16 years now. We don't talk often anymore but we do get together once or twice a year. It's crazy because she was in my dream last night.

Cycle/Month: 11
CD/DPO: 27/12ish
Timing: -3,-1
Testing plans: none
R/R/CS: Period to come on Wednesday or Thursday, hopefully since my body temp was everywhere this month. Tested yesterday and it was a BFN. I have only one test left so I'm saving it for when I'm truly late with my period (if that ever happens). I may not have gotten pregnant in my whole year of trying but I'm happy that my cycles have become normal. Also, whenever I went into the 2WW my boobs really hurt, I had terrible cramping, etc., Last month and this month, with the exception of the last few days, I've had none of those signs. I think my hormones are actually starting to go back to normal! I've had irregular cycles ever since I got off Mirena July 2014 and it's been difficult getting my body back to normal. Now if only my period will arrive on time this week.
GTKY: how long have you been friends with your oldest friend? Where did you meet him/her? I met my friend in the third grade (which was 1987) so that's 28 years. Granted we don't talk or hang out but whenever I run into her we can always say hi and talk really good.
R/R/CS: FF changed my CH unexpectedly this morning, but it didn't make too much of a difference. Big temp drop this morning and cramping, so just waiting on CD1.
GTKY: how long have you been friends with your oldest friend? Where did you meet him/her? I met her in second grade. We had a horrendous teacher that would keep you in for recess for not coloring properly or being "too slow" with you math tests. Both of us were in for recess a ton that year so we bonded. Our families are still really good friends so I see her a bit (she is far away so not as much as I would like!), and it is thru her I met one of my current closest friends!
GTKY: The oldest friend I talk to on a regular basis I met freshman year of college. She had a Rent poster, and I love that musical so we bonded over that. I have a friend I am friendly with on FB. We met in kindergarten. I wound up living with her family for five years after running away. It got weird, and we had a bit of a falling out but reconnected a little over FB.
R/R/CS: Starting to get a yeast infection. I have a refill for difulcan. Thoughts on that medication during the TWW? .
Yes please use medicine to clear up your yeast infection. Unless you want it to enter your bloodstream and lead to worse complications.
From the FDA's site: The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is informing the public that chronic, high doses (400-800 mg/day) of the antifungal drug Diflucan (fluconazole) may be associated with a rare and distinct set of birth defects in infants whose mothers were treated with the drug during the first trimester of pregnancy. This risk does not appear to be associated with a single, low dose of fluconazole 150 mg to treat vaginal yeast infection (candidiasis).
I'm taking the low dose of 150mg. So it looks like I'm ok. Guess I should have googled first. I'm glad because I really didn't want to go through this training school itching like crazy.
Testing plans: Probably tomorrow to confirm my suspicion
R/R/CS: Started spotting yesterday
GTKY: how long have you been friends with your oldest friend? Where did you meet him/her? I had just moved and it was my first day at a new school (5th grade). I had this sweet tie-die shorts on and she said to me "Hi! I like your shorts!" and we've been friends ever since.
Testing plans: Holding off as long as possible this month.
R/R/CS:
GTKY: how long have you been friends with your oldest friend? Where did you meet him/her? Excluding family members (I'm very close with some cousins), I guess I met my HS BFF in middle school, so 20 years ago, more or less. We live across the country now, so I wouldn't say we're BFFs, but we've got the kind of friendship that you can just pick up whenever. She's due with her first in three weeks and I'm flying out to the east coast this fall to meet her LO.

Thank you for starting!
Cycle/Month: 2/2
CD/DPO: 19/7
Timing: -3,-1,O
Testing plans: none
R/R/CS: MH is an idiot, and I way to mood swingy for his nonsense!!
GTKY: how long have you been friends with your oldest friend? Where did you meet him/her? We have known each other since I was born, but have been BFFs for about 22 years. Our parents were grew up together and were BFFs also. It's so fun to have dinner parties now like our parents did!
Testing: Well, I'll be on vacation at the end of this cycle, so if I don't feel that my period is on its way, I'll test at 13dpo.
R/R/CS: I can't wait to start packing for our trip. I might do it today, just cuz.
GTKY: I met my oldest friend 24 years ago on the first day of 6th grade. You see, in 5th grade I had a "boyfriend" and was so happy to see him again at the beginning of the new school year. On the first day of school, I was looking everywhere for him (he had a hot rat tail), but couldn't find him. Then, this guy came up to me and told me that my boyfriend had moved to a different town over the summer WITHOUT SAYING GOODBYE. How dare he? Anyway, this bearer of bad news and I became friends and have been ever since.
wowcheezits, Yay for hormones regulating! I think that's a really positive sign. ]
singingsea, it is my understanding that only creams and suppositories should be used for yeast infections in pregnancy. I would have consulted with your GYN. Also, the 1-3 day ones aren't that great. You should really use a 5 or 7-day treatment, otherwise you run the risk of the infection only being partially treated.

Cycle/Month:
CD/DPO: 9/10
Timing: -1, 0, +1
Testing plans: 10dpo cuz I can. And there were two follies so I'm totes pregnant with twins anyway. Right?
R/R/CS: FF says I O'd on CD 15. We'll ignore that since I triggered on CD12...
GTKY: how long have you been friends with your oldest friend? Where did you meet him/her? My oldest friend would probably be one I met in 6th grade. That's about 18 years. However she did move schools from 6th grade through high school, but we hung out at an extracurricular club in high school, so it's been off and on. We were roommates in college as well and I am her first son's Godmother.

Totes pregotes with twotes! (Twotes? just go with it...)
RRCS: My mom is pretty convinced I'm pregnant and she asks me all the time. She thinks her feeling off is a sympathy symptom of me being preggo. *shakes head* I assured her the last time she asked that I was for sure not pregnant and she stopped asking until yesterday.
GTKY: My oldest friend? We met almost 20 years ago in preschool.

I'm so confused...
I'm a stalker and know all things - she is on CD18/3DPO
GTKY: how long have you been friends with your oldest friend? Where did you meet him/her? My mom had an in-home daycare when I was little, and one of those kiddos became a good friend. She started coming to my house when she was six weeks and I was nine months old, so... nearly 31 years? We live across the country now, but visit whenever we can and stay in touch via FB.
