Rants, Raves & Chart Stalks (RRCS): My BBT is staying up and I haven't started spotting yet...
Getting to Know You (GTKY): Tell us what you carry around (type of handbag, bookbag, etc) & what's currently in it. For work, I alternate between a big canvas shoulder bag and a messenger bag (when I'm biking). I carry my lunch and snacks, my little journal, an extra tote bag or two for unexpected stops at the store, various writing utensils, keys, and an embarrassing amount of trash (old receipts, bills, etc.).
RRCS: Not much going on. Just looking at the crazy train schedule. I did the due date calculator and based on LMP I'd be due Dec 15th. It also said I should be releasing my egg this week. 2 wks is too much time for me to think and worry.
GTKY: I usually carry a tote to work but I am using a small purse these days. It has my wallet, cell phone, 2 maxi pads, 2 tampons, Monistat cream, hair band, bobby pins, a Macys coupon, lip liner and chapstick. It's like a kit for a woman's emergency.
Testing Plans: I'll probably cave on 4/7 before I go hang out with my brother and sister for the weekend to see if I can get drunk or not.
Rants, Raves & Chart Stalks (RRCS): nothing today. I've been cramping for 2 days, I am hopeful that it is my body working correctly!
Getting to Know You (GTKY): Tell us what you carry around (type of handbag, bookbag, etc) & what's currently in it. I have a turquoise Kate Spade purse that I love. Currently, for work I have a purple Clinique bag (free from a sample thing). It's got my coach wallet, my lactation book, notebook, WALC breastfeeding not conference book, and 2 pencil bags, along with my planner.
Testing Plans: betas 4/7...still seems so far away!
Rants, Raves & Chart Stalks (RRCS): trying to stay cool, man
Getting to Know You (GTKY): Tell us what you carry around (type of handbag, bookbag, etc) & what's currently in it. I need a new work bag...I alternate between one that doesn't zip and the shoulder strap is about to give, an old nylon one that needs to be retired, and a leather one I like but doesn't hold enough stuff! I have a makeup bag in there (free from Lancôme), hairbrush, planner, headphones, some random lipsticks and body sprays, and a bunch of pens, post it flags, and highlighters. Some days my barre gear is in there, too, or in a separate bag. Oh and ginger candies. I've become obsessed with them.
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!
Rants, Raves & Chart Stalks (RRCS): none today. I calmed myself down after the tow nonsense yesterday, and got a parking spot today. One more day in this class.
Getting to Know You (GTKY): Tell us what you carry around (type of handbag, bookbag, etc) & what's currently in it.
I have a 3 year old clearance Coach bag. It's now faded and the handles are cracked but I still love it. Wallet, iPad, pens, an apple, various receipts that infogo to take out, pepto bismol and Advil.
Rants, Raves & Chart Stalks (RRCS): this is my favorite week of each cycle. The calm after the storm of doctors and meds and the calm before the storm of the crazy train. Just enjoying calm.
Getting to Know You (GTKY): Tell us what you carry around (type of handbag, bookbag, etc) & what's currently in it.
I have 3 bags, a personal purse that is a Coach bag and has tons of crap, a work bag that is a sparkly Victoria secret bag for files, pens, lunch, and laptop, and then an ugly red bag I take to visits with me because sometimes I have to throw bags away after visits (I work in child protection so we don't always visit the best of places).

Testing Plans: Nada
RRCS: Today has been crazy busy. I'm filling in for the loaner car guy while he's out of town and we completely ran out of cars by 9am. And the advisors keep expecting me to produce cars out of thin fucking air even though the service manager told them if they want cars they need to get cars back from customers. And the day is going so slowly -.- ughhh
GTKY: A purse from Target. It holds my wallet, checkbook, planner, and some random papers.

I'm currently using a mid-size cream DKNY purse I picked up at Ross that has waaayy to much in it. I carry around my day planner, my iPad, wallet, meds, and a bunch of other completely random but useful essentials. I typically refer to my purse as the Mary Poppins bag since I never really know what's it but I almost always have what someone will need.

shopgirl24, I'm sorry if CD1 is on the horizon for you. You are a brave soul to use a cream colored bag. I once had a white one. Beautiful especially for summer. But it was a pain to clean and became too stressful to carry around (seeing grubby little nephews hands coming at it, for example). @iheartmyshiba, GL testing!
Hi guys! I've been gone all day, just catching up. Love hearing about all of your purses!
Cycle/Month: 9/10
CD/DPO: 26 / 10 maybe?
Timing: probably good!
Testing Plans: forever
Rants, Raves & Chart Stalks (RRCS): I hate this time of the TWW. Looking forward to having an answer either way.
Getting to Know You (GTKY): I have a Fossil bag that I love with my wallet and purse, basically a pharmacy as well. Then a larger brown bag I carry with my work laptop, notebook and pens, cords, whatever; I almost always carry them both since I never know if I'll work from home or not the next day.
