Rhiannon, I'm so sorry about cd1, you must be crushed. *hugs*

Hey Rhiannon! I posted a typed up a huge response yesterday and mfp ate it. Ugh! Anyway, I had an RE appointment Tuesday and was told I had the exact same thing. Lutel phase defect, clomid. I'm actually really pissed about it because I have 3 years of charts in fertility friend and my first RE and my obgyn all didn't care…

Omg Amanda! That's so great you're gonna love Blacksburg! Hiking the Cascades is a must, floating down the New River, downtown hosts Steppin Out every year-it's an awesome street fair. Cabo fish taco is the best restaurant, have the Rasta Pasta for me! Oh I'm so excited for you, and really want to live vicariously though…

Rhiannon I'm so sorry to hear you were having such a hard time <3 so glad that things are getting better for you, definitely have your husband monitor your moods and discuss with your doctor often. This process is so anxiety making, take care of yourself. Glad you're back :)

Kayla, the first week is always a blur and so draining. Meeting new people, learning the process and policies. I hire and on board people as part of my job and it's equally exhausting to us, haha! I work for a small company though, so it's only a few times a year- it's not an ongoing thing that I do. You've made it…

Good luck at the new job today Kayla! Let us know how it went!! <3

I haven't set any goals for March, but I'd like to now. I'm 197 today, and was 196 the past few days. Ive been working on my diet and logging and measuring too. The scale read 199 recently and spurred me into action, so I'm not disappointed about 197, this isn't linear. I'm making progress, and I walked on my treadmill…

Pro tip: narcotics and an empty stomach don't mix. Eat breakfast friends or end up naseated and unable to focus at work! Eating crackers and sipping water and hoping this passes soon...what a rookie mistake! I did have a lovely 90 minute massage last night, and she focused on my on my back and legs, so feeling a bit better…

Hey guys, I've been MIA for a long time- no good news to report. We've been TTC for over a year now, with no identified issues. I meet with our second reproductive endocrinologist in 2 weeks to talk about treatments and look into endometriosis, I think I might have that. DH broke his shoulder 2 weeks ago and has been in…

Hey everyone. I've been absent lately because I've been having a really hard time with TTC. My temp dipped below coverline today with cramps and 4 days of bfns. Cycle 12 will be starting today or tomorrow and we are talking about whether we will start our interventions with an IUI or go straight to ivf. It's a really hard…

Congratulations on the baby girl Sheila!

Happy New year Rhiannon! I didn't make any resolutions either, but I do enjoy a reset after the holidays where I rein in the non stop eating and reevaluate things. I am doing a January (through march? Eh, maybe) whole 30, and am trying to be as healthy as possible for the next 3 months. Our RE said we had to wait until we…

Puffbrat stay! I love reading about your journey and those of our current preggos. It would suck if everyone left as soon as they got pregnant or had a baby (I'd be here all alone with my dusty old uterus) sometimes I'm not in the mood because I'm having a hard time with a new bfn or cycle but I always come back to comment…

Ha, I'm 195 today and just ate cake and Mac and cheese, but the month isn't over yet. Going to do a whole 30 for January- ugh I should just start now. I'm all jacked up on sugar like all the time.

Omg Lizz, that is so cool that you shared the recording with us! <3 <3 <3 amazing!

Thanks Lizz. We weren't really smokers so it was easy to quit. We just bought some on a bad day and would *kitten* about 2017 on the porch while smoking a few. It just sucks that this mwasn the RE won't treat us yet. If I had known... Sorry to hear about your pain, I hope that clears up soon but have heard it can last the…

@Ifthoughts I saw and RE last week and so far we are looking unexplained. I had an HSG this week and blood drawn today to check a few other things that haven't been done yet like vitamin D level.

I made and ate: 2 pans of cinnamon rolls, 3 pans of Mac and cheese. I shared of course, but they were big hits so i.made extra over the course of the week. January will be the reset as usual diet wise. Going to do a whole 30 style diet! TTC wise, i met with an RE Friday and got an HSG (all clear!) done yesterday. The RE…

Lizz, your mother in.law sounds like a nighare! Make sure you and hubby are on the same page...it's his mom, make him handle her!

Happy birthday Auby!

CD1 of cycle 11...on my anniversary. And Chris had to go to court today to fight his reckless ticket he got in the car accident. Ughhhh. Ticket was dropped, it was the other guys fault, but we still don't have the car back-its been 5 or 6 weeks. :/ I'm ready for Christmas, the presents are all bought an wrapped. Glad you…

Welcome aubrey! Tell us about yourself!

Lizz, super cute announcement! I sent you a friend request (please no talk about me TTC there though if you do accept it) :) glad you are feeling better and you have a friend to go through this with!

Yes I think it was anovulatory and it's the first that I can say for sure. All other charted cycles seem normal.

Got my opks in the mail yesterday. So so very negative! Looking like AF is on the way though with the cramps and pink cm I have today. On to cycle 11 :(

Forgot to add...does anyone else have google albums just of their Christmas decorations? Just me? Also, Amanda good luck with your company and getting the doggo spayed. Try and relax a bit and have a great time with your friends/family :) Glad you have lots of tasty leftover bakes to nom on!

So I have NFI how to size, but I logged into a computer, and into my google pics just to share these with you. Obligitory none of these pics are from this year...just the last one :) I dont look this put together this year, and the dining room table is covered in presents and wrapping paper at the moment! These are my…

I have that patterns tablecloth, and a platter. So pretty. Great job at the gym!

Thanks for the well wishes everyone, that means a lot. @RhiannonBecks show me those dishes!! I'm such a 1950s house wife, I love house wares like sheets and bedding, table cloths and blankets, dishes! Here is the Lennox tablecloth I picked up at Tuesday Morning recently: ugh nevermind, why is it impossible to add a picture…

Thanks Kayla. I had pie for breakfast and got awesome Christmas truffle candies from Aldi this weekend. Also went to brunch with Chris yesterday for a nice Sunday date...all things that helped make the weekend a bit better <3
