mosdub!! You sound well informed and I like your decision (if my approval means anything, haha)! April will totally be here before you know it!! I am happy that you have a date right now.
I agree with all this! I am so so very happy you are able to set a date for ttc. Yay! Fx for continuing negative tests.

littlelion I have seen that available in Netflix, but I haven't watched it yet. I will add that to my list!
I would be interested in seeing what they bake that is savory. I think it is weird when people make savory cupcakes (they do it on Cupcake Wars). Cupcakes are supposed to be sweet!

dashook, that's exciting! penguin129, hope you can get your insurance stuff figured out. That's no fun. ourcrazynavylife, What are you studying? MH is working on his doctorate in geography. hurricanerek, +1 to getting lost in the Internet. I would get so many more things done... mosdub, yes, that's awesome!

Rants/Raves/No Flame No Shame Q's: Well, the allergy testing last week revealed 7 things that I'm allergic to. Most of them are chemicals commonly found in shampoo, lotion, etc, but since I use natural products mine didn't have any of the offending ingredients. Sort of unfortunate since that would have been an easy fix. So that leaves nickel, which I'm apparently highly allergic to. I already knew that I had a nickel contact allergy, but it seems that people with severe nickel allergies can also react to the nickel in food (commonly manifesting itself in dermatitis exactly like mine). So I'm trying a low nickel diet for about the next month. Nickel is in everything so it can't be avoided entirely, just kept to a minimum. Wish me luck...
GTKY: Cuddle on the couch with MH and our doggies and watch Netflix. One dog likes to lie on my lap and the the other lies on my feet. So cozy.

My doctor's office finally has a fancy new online chart system so I was able to check the results from my TSH blood work. My levels were .38 which means I will most likely be having my dosage dropped down. I still have to wait a week for the appointment to see what she says. I'm not sure if skipping pre-natals had anything to do with the change.

mosdub, so happy that you have a date now! And I love that you are feeling excited again! spaceapple, I hope the low nickel diet becomes easier. So sorry you have to go through that. dashook, yay for CD1 arrival!!
So, I'm late posting, but oh well.
Circumstances: CD9
Rants/Raves/No Flame No Shame Q's: OMG, I can actually say with certainty what cycle day I am on!!!! I think it was the day after I finally joined WTDS that a REAL period started! You all are my good luck charm. I was so happy I cried. LOL. I started temping yesterday in hopes of actually seeing a temp shift. We'll see. I'm also thinking about calling my Dr to schedule a prog test since I actually know what CD I am on.

Hi! I'm new to WTDS. DH and I had a productive conversation this weekend. We've reached the point where we are both comfortable moving forward with expanding our family, residency be damned.
We're going to start out just NTNP for a few months first, while my body adjusts to being off birth control. Then we'll reevaluate after the holidays and the new year, and potentially move to all out TTC then.
I started the last week of my current birth control pack this morning. I'm going to contact my OB-GYN this week to see if I need to change or stop any of my daily meds. And then next Sunday I'll officially stop BC! I'm both excited and anxious.
I hope y'all will have me here. I figure this will be the best thread for me to post in while I wait to see what my cycle does off birth control. DH and I are keeping this decision just between us IRL, so it's nice to have an outlet.

Heyyyyy lady!!! I have been seeing your name pop up here and there for a bit now but I haven't talked to you in a while! I am excited you are going to be joining us in here!! Congrats on moving up your TTC date! Good luck as you start figuring some things out! Fx your cycles return pretty normally.
How much longer of your residency do you have to go at this point?

I'm not quite halfway through my second year. So I have a little more than 2.5 years left. I'm scheduled to graduate in June 2018.
Met in May 2011 Engaged November 2011 Married November 2013 Started TTC November 2015 Began Infertility Workup November 2016 BFP! Lucky #13 Cycle TTC Due Date: 9/5/2017
Numbers: Benched until April 2016(ish)... !!! (FEELS SO GOOD TO WRITE THAT!)
Circumstances: Waiting 6 months to make sure hCG stays at negative after a partial molar pregnancy in April 2015.
Rants/Raves/No Flame No Shame Q's: I talked at length with H, I consulted a leading doctor and have talked with many women who have been through molar pregnancies and I have decided I'm not going to wait the full 12 months my doctor recommended before ttc. The recommendation is out of date and isn't grounded in any new research. The leading doctor said 3 weekly negatives followed by 3 monthly negatives which would be around a 4 month bench period. If my hCG stays negative until April (6 months from hitting negative and 1 year from the loss) I'm considering myself cleared. For the first time since the loss I feel hopeful and excited to try again! I think the 6 month waiting period will be a good time for me to focus on health and preparing mentally for ttcal. Obviously I will tell my doctor about this when it becomes relevant. Right now I just want to have a for-sure date to look forward to. If he magically presents me with research showing I should wait 12 months then I will heed that advice.
GTKY: What is your favorite thing to do when you have some downtime? Napping with my pets because I'm basically a house cat.
Lurking - had to say SO EXCITED TO HEAR THIS!!!!!!!!!!! I am so, so happy for you guys mosdub what awesome news!!
