I am waiting for AF after my d&c which was 3 weeks ago.
Nothing new happening right now and I feel great (today) I am ready to get the show on the road and start ttc.
My next appointment is on the 29th, it is just a followup to make sure that everything is going ok after the d&c and for me to find out if they found anything during the tissue analysis.
Something that you don't know about me let's see, I have been with my husband since I was 18 (almost 10 years!) and he was the first man I dated that actually called and took me on a proper 1st date.

Where are you in your cycle right now?
AF should be here anytime between Thursday and Monday. We did not TTC this cycle, so I'm riding on easy street this week. It's amazingly refreshing to not worry about symptoms and what I'm eating or drinking "just in case". whew!
Any thing new going on?
Ummm... Not really
How are you feeling? Quite relaxed for a change
Next appointment and what for?
Thinking about making an appointment with the Doc, my insurance doesn't cover infertility, but I'm due for a physical so we can talk about what the next step would/should be (it's been 6 months, and I'm 40, so that puts me at "infertility" probably due to my age)

Where are you in your cycle right now? CD 22 of a 30-32 day cycle. Hope I O'ed this cycle. I didn't have the clear ovulation signs as I typically do though.
Any thing new going on? We're trying naturally for a while before going back to the RE late fall.
How are you feeling? Impatient, but more at peace than I thought I would be.
Next appointment and what for? Don't have an appt scheduled yet.
