Your TWW seems to be flying by, I think it's because we know you are testing early

I'm not sure how active I'll be on here, as I've reached my STC limit and barely able to keep this up through April, but I will be following.

It's OK Cland, come around as much or little as you want

I'll have a more definitive testing date once O comes, but I too have been instructed to test early (and I've got my box of OSOM's) so that I can get blood thinners as soon as anything comes up.

I'll definitely be getting my and on this New Year's Eve lol

 

[LillyTame]

oooh, OSOMs...maybe I'll buy some, I have absolutely no HPTs right now, only OPKs. Where do you get them?

 

[Kuawen]

I buy them off Amazon but only because I have Amazon Prime so I get free shipping on nearly everything. I've got a box of 25 tests for $56 but there may be other websites out there with better deals.

I don't think you should put in a test date for me for this current cycle official date would be 01/01 and it's most definitely not a BFP cycle. I can't explain it, I've been really pessimistic from the start of it.

We are continuing with Femara, Progesterone, and baby aspirin for Jan-Apr cycles and then we are NTNP (like no temps, OPKs, meds, supplements, etc.) - effectively done for good. But I will be around until then!

 

[LillyTame]

I went with the surepredicts! I ordered 100! I am going to let my POAS addiction run freeeeee this year! I'll probably start testing as soon as they get here

 

[mamadonna]

Af due any day, will test on the 3Rd if she's not here by then, I don't think this is our month tho

 

[LillyTame]

I don't know what's worse...being hopeful at the end and then getting AF or feeling out and AF proves you right!

 

[ClandestineTX]

For me, having hopes dashed is definitely a bigger issue than feeling out and being right. I don't do hope anymore. I agreed to keep trying until April (a full 6 medicated months since my MC), because that is more than a reasonable time frame to get another BFP. That being said, I just feel like any hope I had died in August when we knew the pregnancy wasn't viable.

Randomly, I forgot to mention hardcore exercise and sticking to my reasonably low carb diet are part of our fertility plan. Insulin resistance, which just about anyone who carries weight inappropriately has some degree of, can jack with ovulation and impairs egg maturity. I have an *almost* normal fasting insulin level, so I'm busting my ass to get that down to make sure that's not a factor in our fertility woes.

Cland, (I kept typing Gland for some reason ) I just can't believe you are done in 3 months...now will that be 3 months or 3 cycles? Meaning one last cycle in April? If that makes sense...I guess I'm wondering...if cycle 3 doesn't end till April, will you try IN April for the last time?

 

[Fezzle]

I'll join! We're in our 16th cycle now. I'm not going to do much different since the Clomid worked last time (and technically 'every time'), so once AF comes (hopefully end of next week), I'll be doing my 2nd Clomid cycle. Right now my current plan is high dose Vit D3, pregnacare conception, coQ-10, Metformin & royal jelly. And once New Years is over, back to running and healthy eating. My main concern is egg quality and age (I'll be 39 in Feb.), so that's my main focus.

My Femara cycles are straight up 27-28 days, like ovulation CD 13-15 every single time, so there's technically four cycles left. We agreed to stop trying after April 8th, because that's the last day with a 2015 EDD (understanding that EDD's are +/- 2 weeks). Femara is predicting April ovulation to be approximately April 5th, so that will be the very last one. There will still be testing that month, however, assuming things don't work out before then. I am super grateful for the predictability of cycles with the Femara, like I will have CD 1 most likely tomorrow, though a slight chance it could be Friday.

I feel like things almost worked in July because I was the healthiest and most active that I've been since we started trying. I am doing calisthenics (similar to what you did in boot camp, Lilly!) four days a week and a walk-to-run program 3 days a week. We are also walking the dog 1-2 miles as close to every day as possible. I'm physically working hard, but not so hard that I would anticipate a problem from it. I had put real exercise on the back-burner, scared that it would ruin our chances, but I am already past the point where I'm avoiding living now "just in case" - so I'm living and enjoying it, and if things work out - great! And if they don't, I want to be somewhere that I am happy to be when this is over.

 

[LillyTame]

Let me know when you have a test date, Fezzle!

 

[LillyTame]

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!​

I hope this year brings us plenty to be happy about in all areas of our lives.

 

[Fezzle]

Let me know when you have a test date, Fezzle!

There's a very tiny chance I'll test on 10 Jan- not expecting much since we only BDed once, 3 days before I got my solid smiley, and I still have a hard time believing I really ovulated that early on my own! So most likely it'll be early-mid Feb. Hoping for a birthday BFP!

 

[kksy9b]

Happy New Years ladies! I wish the very best for each of you!

Frustrating, but still hopeful if no AF! FX'd!
