Appointments: Will set one with a specialist sometime this month
Symptoms if they apply: None, this stupid clomid better work this time

Monday check in
Name: Cait
Date: January 3rd 2011
Cycle: CD 21 4dpo
Appointments: none
Symptoms: uterus pain last night, sore boobs
Testing: only after af is missing, so next tuesday if I am feeling like it isn't coming
Thoughts: my dh got a full time job today after having 2 parttimes for almost a year. If I get a bfp next week this could be the best month ever

ZoeJane'sMommy can you add me to TTC #1 (I'm 26)? Thanks! I just posted in the December thread, so I thought I'd move my update to here:

Monday Check-In
Name: Chicajones
Date: Jan 3, '11
Chart: http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/32b88b
Where are you in your cycle: CD 20
Appointments: N/A
Symptoms if they apply: some nausea
Testing: Holding off on testing till the 9th.
Thoughts: I'm pretty sure I O'd on the 30th, definitely EWCM and I just felt kinda weird that day, had a twinge or two. We were pretty busy on the days before and after, and we DTD that night, so hopefully it worked! I'm not getting a clear O on my chart yet because my temp hasn't risen that much, but we were travelling and up strange hours, so I almost want to disregard yesterday's. I think tomorrow will be a good indicator of where things are at.

Monday Check-In
Name: Jasmine
Date: 1-3-11
Chart: Not charting right now
Where are you in your cycle: I am actually not exactly sure and want to keep it that way, I am somewhere around CD 12 I think.
Appointments: None
Symptoms if they apply: Nope
Testing: Not
Thoughts: Trying to relax. Hoping that I will get pregnant sometime.

[VJSJ]

Monday Check-In
Name: Jasmine
Date: January 3, 2011
Chart: NONE
Where are you in your cycle: CD 10 -- 2nd day within my fertile window
Appointments: NONE
Symptoms if they apply: NONE 
Testing: Not until after January 21st -- when AF is due
Thoughts: actually hopeful. DH and I have talked about it lately and I think the several shows that show either in sitcom or reality about how hard it is to TTC for a happy young couple, it actually has him probably not wanting to wait or do anything to prevent us from trying.

Monday Check-In
Name: Heather
Date: Jan 3
Chart: http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/11a448
Where are you in your cycle: CD 7
Appointments: none
Symptoms if they apply: none
Testing: depends on when I O, if I'm lucky I can test early February.
Thoughts: trying not to become so obsessive about my cycle this time.  We're moving at the end of January and I hope I O before we take a long road trip.

Reposting from posting it in the Dec thread this morning...

Monday Check-In
Name: Andy
Date: Jan 3rd
Chart: N/A
Where are you in your cycle: CD 21 & somewhere between 4 -6DPO... Not totally sure on it do to messed up temps from being sick...
Appointments: None at the moment...
Symptoms if they apply: Still fighting being sick so it's hard to tell if I have any symptoms...
Testing: Jan 8th
Thoughts: Started on the bio progesterone cream and hoping it's all I need to get that bfp! :)

ZoeJane'sMommy can you add me to TTC #1 as well? I'm 27 :) Thanks!

Copied from the December thread:

Monday Check-In
Name: Heather
Date: Jan 3, '11
Chart: http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/32ba72
Where are you in your cycle: CD 31. AF was expected on the 1st.
Appointments: N/A
Symptoms if they apply: sleeplessness, poor manual dexterity, low energy, some nausea
Testing: Planning on testing at the end of this week.
Thoughts: I had sort of given up on the idea of being pregnant right now near the end of last week when I had some cramping. The cramping is gone now, and AF is two days late. Fingers and toes crossed! Some nausea, dizziness, backache and sleeplessness.

And, to update, still no AF :)

[chicajones]

Update: I got crosshairs! FF is saying that I O'd on the 31st. We DTD the day before and the next morning, so we'll see if the timing was okay. 

I did drink a little that night (since it was New Year's Eve, and I just figured maybe it would take a cycle or two for me to "really" O)...now I feel bad and wish I hadn't! It was crazy though, I only had two small drinks but they made me feel weird, and I felt really nauseous later that evening right before I went to bed. I was the one making the drinks, so I know there wasn't much alcohol in them. So strange. Hopefully it's not a big deal, I'd feel so bad if I had a chemical pregnancy or something and that was the reason. Next time I'm really going to avoid drinking anything after I think I O.

You have no reason to worry. Nothing even gets to your baby from your body until about 2 weeks past implantation. I did a little researching on this since I will not give up coffee until I know I am prego. Also alcohol is definitely not good for a baby, but even just one or two drinks here and there throughout your pregnancy is not going to hurt. In other countries pregnant women drink wine all the time. One or two drinks one night will not have any effect on your hopefully soon to be baby.

Thanks ZoeJane'sMommy! I know, I figured I was being a little paranoid, but it's reassuring to read that it's fine. :)

I completely understand, just to hear another person say it makes all the difference. And your welcome.

[Maevankayt]

So much for that... 7 days late and AF finally started. This is after about 10 years of being like clockwork. Sigh.

[toothfairy2be]

Hugs to you maevankayt, why does it seem ttc makes our body rebel. Fx for next month!

[OJazzy1]

That sucks maevankayt. It seems as soon as we are trying to have a baby our body just decides to go nuts on us.

[OSTC]

I think I got a bfp! Pics here!

[toothfairy2be]

Congrats H & H 9 months to you!!!
