Hi, you can take me off the list, I am baking!
Thanks

Michelle-TTC #2

Oh, yeah!!! Awesome news!! Have a happy and healthy nine months!! Woot! Shari

 Can you add me to the list? No clue where I am in my cycle, just stopped breastfeeding 3 weeks ago and no AF yet....

Sure. I will add you. You know you are crazy though right...lol 2 under 2 is really hard! Good luck though! Shari

Thanks for the well wishes. I am sure it will be difficult at times if I get lucky enough...I just think if I don't know any better than I can't complain!

I'm on CD4. Will be testing maybe the 8th or 9th of October. I ovulated on CD25 which is so wonderful because I've been having troubles with my cycles being 60+ days. This is my 3rd month of Vitex. So maybe I owe it all to the vitex?

Julia~ Good luck on the vitex. I have heard good things for some on it. Shari

Looks good! We didn't start until 9/10 though! Will POAS on October 5th! The 2WW is crazy! I didn't realize even after reading from everyone else!

I found out on 9/22 that I won my external review appeal for a revision from band to sleeve!!! So, TTC is on hold for now! 
I'm so excited and so thankful to be having the VSG done, and to be given another opportunity to get to a healthier weight before TTC again! With PCOS, its pretty much the only way I'm discovering..

Good luck to everyone else on their journeys!
