Thoughts on this cycle? I'm feeling pretty stressed about TTCAL. 
Frustrations? Well not really related to TTC but DS has been great at "sharing" his colds/flus recently. 

GTKY: last pregnancy what was your monster craving? Your aversions? I didn't really have any cravings.  But after the m/s subsided it took a long time to even look at meat, diary or eggs.

Thoughts on this cycle? This is my last cycle before we start TTC#2 - I'm still waiting to O......  any day now.......

Frustrations? Not really as we haven't started - I am more worried.  Worried about the extra work - stress of being pregnant and having a toddler - but also excited.

GTKY: last pregnancy what was your monster craving? Your aversions?

I loved salt and vinegar chips - which I have not had since.  I had a pretty big aversion to fish and pork - really meat in general.

Trying for what number?: 2!

Thoughts on this cycle? Feeling hopeful....we are going to try EOD sex for a longer span of time so I feel like that'll give us a better shot of hitting the mark.

Frustrations? I know temping is the best way to pinpoint the right time, but it just caused me a lot of extra stress and frustration last cycle. Even though I feel a bit of reservation about winging it, I'm hoping a more relaxed approach this cycle will be good for me. I am going to use OPKs so I'm not going totally blind!

GTKY: last pregnancy what was your monster craving? Your aversions?

When I was pregnant with DD, I loooooved orange juice. I just couldn't get enough of it! I also developed a sweet tooth...I used to not care less about candy etc, but I was a dessert fiend. I also really enjoyed red meat...burgers, steaks etc, which made me think at first she was going to be a boy!
As for aversions, I could not stand chicken for some reason...raw OR cooked. Funny because that's the meat I usually eat the most of. But in 1st tri I couldn't eat much in general...I lost most of my appetite till 12 or 13 weeks.

GTKY: last pregnancy what was your monster craving? Your aversions?  with DD I craved any and all kinds of fruit, with DS I HAD to have big juicy cheeseburgers...with both I went through a long period of time where preparing a meal would make me heave and also the smell of eggs cooking...YUCK!

Thoughts on this cycle? I'm so confused. I only have 4 other full charts (2 before DD incl. bfp and 2 after). This is the longest I've gone without my temp dropping and not spotting. But, BFNs. And my back is achy like AF and I had a tiny bit of spotting this a.m. But my temp is still up? Time will tell I guess.

Frustrations? see above!

GTKY: last pregnancy what was your monster craving? Your aversions? I was adverse to beef for the first few months. That was really sad, I really like a good steak. I didn't crave much.

Frustrations? Still haven't started AF after mirena removal on Oct 1st. Started temping and ordered OPKs in order to gain some control.

GTKY: last pregnancy what was your monster craving? Your aversions? I craved Chinese food. Wanted it daily. I really didn't have any aversions I can think of. I ate everything. Haha!

Thoughts on this cycle? Not if this was our month or not will know within the next few days. It is our first month trying though so that is okay. Going to start temping next month

Frustrations? DD has been really coughing at night and making it hard for us all to sleep!

GTKY: last pregnancy what was your monster craving? Your aversions? Cravings white chocolate...chips that I would dip in cottage cheese (how gross is that). Aversions at first everything I was really sick at night. I had an aversion to coffee but it was just for a few days!

Thoughts on this cycle? I'm feeling pretty good, even though I tested yesterday morning at 9 DPO and got a BFN
Frustrations? That I let myself test yesterday.  DD # 2 has been fussy for the last couple of days, she woke up at 2:15 this morning and was so cranky. She stayed awake for about an hour before she fell back to sleep. 


GTKY: last pregnancy what was your monster craving? Your aversions? With my first I remember always want Swiss cake rolls. I really don't remember anything specific with # 2.

Thoughts on this cycle?  I'm only on CD5 so I'm not thinking too much yet.  I'm feeling a lot more patient this month than I was last month.  Maybe because I'm not too excited about a possible August due date.  In an ideal world, September would be better. 

Frustrations?  Trying to use the bathroom when AF is around while trying to hide it from my 3 year old.  Blood freaks him out!

GTKY: last pregnancy what was your monster craving? Your aversions?  Biggest craving was 5 guys cheeseburgers (no wonder the kid was 10 pounds) and aversion was pizza

I hear ya! I'm not too excited about July or August, so if this isn't our month, I'm half thinking about waiting until Dec. to try - Sept. is ideal in my mind. But who really has that kind of control?

Frustrations? Irregular cycles since coming off BC in August

GTKY: last pregnancy what was your monster craving? Your aversions?  
 I totally craved ice cream, specifically Wendy's frosties of all things. I developed a big aversion to eggs, which I usually love, took a year or so after DD's birth before I could eat them again.

Thoughts on this cycle? I have not been sleeping well the last few months, so temping has been so off. It was so easy to temp before LO was here! 
Frustrations? Weight... I am still carrying a lot of baby weight. It has been hard to get it off. Before I got pregnant I lost 30 lbs in 4 months and it is taking so much longer post baby!

GTKY: last pregnancy what was your monster craving? Fruit. I would go to the store before work and buy a weeks worth of fruit and eat it in 1 day!

GTKY: last pregnancy what was your monster craving? Your aversions? I didn't really have any cravings.  During the 1st tri when I had m/s, creamy things were one of the few foods that sounded good, no idea why.

Thoughts on this cycle? Actually TTA this cycle to 'avoid' an August birthday.(explanation  in the TTA check in)

Frustrations: Wishing DD would stop waking up just to ask me to lay in bed with her and then be sleeping again within minutes.

GTKY: Last pregnancy what was your monster craving? Your aversions? My best craving was potato chips.  I actually normally do not like the taste of potato chips and one day I was craving them so DH bought a regular size bag and some dip(for himself) the next day he comes home from work ready to dive into the chips only to find that I ate the whole bag.

My only aversion was the smell of coffee.  I am not a coffee drinker but every time I smelled it I got nauseous.
