Then clearly August needs to be the Moon Moon thread...
-
@organicmama: DH and I often do sleepy BDing. If we are in the same house, there in no excuse for not BDing during the fertile week. @MaryM: maybe you can go to sleep early and then wake up at 4 am for a quickie!! Sometimes I'm up at 4 am for work so that's not a totally unreasonable hour. And conditions totally don't need to be optimal. I don't buy into that stuff. If he comes in you, then you got the job done.
-
@LindsayInNY: lmao
-
@organicmama: Sorry about the BFN. But still no AF means you are still in the game.
@septca: I'm so sorry about how you are feeling but really does seem like you are kicking your bitterness in the ass!! You sound like you are doing awesome things. Keep it up, lady.
@GoGoSnoGirl: Oh my gosh! New Zealand!?!?! That's amazing! And I vote you get in a nasty BDing session in the airport just for fun, in the airplane just for fun, and as soon as you get to your hotel room, again, just for fun.
Where do you live? Is this a giant trip for you? I'd love to go soon but it will be a pretty big trip for me and DH. @LindsayInNY: Bahahaha. I LOVE Moon Moon!
-
@MrsMcD: LOL on the NZ trip comments.
-
The end of the month is coming up quick and we still have a few more testers!! Good luck ladies!

@GoGoSnoGirl: love those ideas! I was going too look but then a client came in my office asking for advice. Interrupting my hellobee j/k NSA!
@LindsayInNY: Too cute!
@MrsMcD: I almost spit my chicken sandwich out!!! At due today or tomorrow. I chanced it and wore tan pants too.
What about: August Supermoon: When BFPs Ripen or The August Moon Moon Thread?
-
@septca: Hooray for predictable cycles!! #silverlinings
-
I was too excited so I started the August thread... http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/august-ttc-6-months-the-most-super-moon-moon-month
I figure I've been around these threads long enough that I'm just going to do whatever I want!
Kidding of course!!
-
@LindsayInNY: Funny girl. Awesome title! I love Moon Moon!
-
@LindsayInNY: I'm already googling funny memes
-
@dc yoga bee: Be prepared to waste far too much time on Moon Moon now...
-
@LindsayInNY: I forgot it's still cd 28, and AF isn't here yet! I'll join tomorrow!
-
@dc yoga bee: You can post on either thread! It's a continuous thing now so it doesn't matter where anyone is in their cycle!
-
@dc yoga bee: Just join after AF. I'm still coming to this board to support everyone!
-
@dc yoga bee: @MrsMcD: I'm going to post on allllll the TTC threads!!!! (I've totally lost my mind)
-
@AmeliaBedilia: Hey lady. Did you say you are on CD 7? Did I miss when you said you got a bfn or when AF came?
-
And because I'm grasping at straws, maybe we have increased chances with supermoon!

Yay for the stragglers here!
Just looked up Moon Moon. Pretty freaking funny! But I refuse to join August til the fat lady shows up singing. Which I'm thinking will be soon since I am sort of insatiable and almost just ate a whole Kashi pizza.
@mrsmcd: I think @Nicolechris112 changed her name back to the original (with Chris). So yes, how are you doing lady? We miss you on here!
-
@MrsMcD: AF came so early I thought it was implantation bleeding. Then it was too heavy for that. Then DH and I realized we both had a weird feeling that I was. Then my temp has been down so after all this back and forth, determined I had an anovulatory cycle (the first in the 2.5 years I have been charting.
I don't recall having a 20 day cycle ever. In my mind, I freak out that this means I am getting too old.
-
@organicmama: and @AmeliaBedilia: Adding to your inspirational thoughts for the day... My MIL forwards an email from the Osteen's. I'm not the hugest fan of theirs, but sometimes the messages are just spot on!
“ ‘My thoughts are nothing like your thoughts,’ says the LORD. ‘And my ways are far beyond anything you could imagine.’ ”
(Isaiah 55:8, NLT)
We all have dreams and goals. We do our best to stretch our faith and believe that one day, if we work hard enough, get the right breaks or meet the right people, we’ll see that dream come to pass. In our mind, that would be big. A great accomplishment. But, what’s big to us is not big to God. He created the universe. He spoke worlds into existence. God’s dream for your life is so much bigger than your own. See, we think ordinary; God thinks extraordinary!
Today, whatever you’re dreaming about, whatever you’re believing for, know that God’s dream for your life is far greater. He wants to supersize it. He’s an overflow God. Ephesians says, “God can do exceedingly, abundantly above and beyond what we think.” Why don’t you take the limits off of God? You may not see a way, but God has a way. One touch of God’s favor can take you further than you could go on your own in a lifetime. Be open to God’s dream for your life and embrace the fullness of the blessing He has in store for you!

@MrsMcD: @organicmama: Hello! I'm still here. I guess I needed some time to be distracted during my TWW. Sorry I've been MIA a bit…I'm still here!
I have been trying to use the NTNP approach this cycle and so far I think it's been working for the most part. Today is CD 27…AF could show up any time now. I'm not temping so I guess I won't have my mini panic-attack-freak-out moments when/if my temp dips. I just have to wait and see if AF makes her arrival or not. I did test this am…bfn.
I must say though…who knows if it's anything or not but yesterday and the night before I was queasy all day and my boobs started hurting prob right after O day (so for about 2 weeks now) and they typically don't start hurting until a week before AF arrives. IDK…trying to be hopeful and praying super hard but who knows what will happen!
Good luck to all the other testers for July!! (and August of course!! ;-))
-
@MrsMcD: lol! Well, we did discuss needing to resort to some more adventurous liaisons in order to maximize our opportunities... How many babies are conceived @ 35k feet, after all??
We live on the west coast, so a reasonable trip, but still a long haul over the Pacific!
-
@gogosnogirl: KSBJ is a Christian radio station that just so happens to send out texts! And they are usually right on time for me.
@marym: love it. It's so true! If we can just keep the right perspective, that if it doesn't happen now, it's only because He has something even better for us (and He does know what's best for us). It kinda takes the load off, too. Why worry about something beyond your control? -
@organicmama: Because we want to control EVERYTHING!!! lol
-
@organicmama: @MaryM: lol, you two are playing my angel/devil voices around my internal dialog these days when it comes to TTC & my "power struggle".
@organicmama: thanks for the clarification on ksbj. That's cool they send out those inspirational texts. -
@GoGoSnoGirl: I think we all know we *should* let go of total control...but it's actually doing it that's so hard!!
-
@organicmama: @MaryM: thanks so much for sharing those positive words today! I was having a bit of a "poor me" day and these helped shift things for me. You guys are the best!
-
@MrsMcD: thanks for asking. I'm holding up ok. I'm helping with VBS at my church this week so that is helping distract me. Ordered pee sticks from amazon and they should be here tomorrow. Having them in the house will make it hard for me to wait until Thursday.
@organicmama: and @nicole112: I hope AF stays away.
-
@organicmama: I want to sign up for the texts!!
@MamaCate: I really hate the "poor me" days. I hope you cheer up soon!
@nicole112: Sorry to call you out of hiding. I hope AF stays away for you.
@GoGoSnoGirl: I'm on the west coast, too! Now I'm dying to plan a trip to NZ. I think we are years off from that though. Have fun. take one picture for us HB girls, will you, please?!?!
@Kate6214: Ahhhh... VBS. How sweet!! I haven't helped in years but hope to do it again some day soon. And thanks for reminding me: I need to order conceive plus from amazon!
-
@GoGoSnoGirl: Where in NZ are you going? Enjoy! It really is a beautiful country!!
-
Well my husband and I survived the his brother's wedding this weekend. Now I am just waiting for AF to get here. Should be in the next couple days. I am about 10DPO and took a test this morning because I was having a lot of creamy white CM which I never get only with my last pregnancy and my eye has been twitching for the past 2 days which happened with my last pregnancy as well but my boobs are not sore except for my left under my arm and on the side so I am thinking I pulled a muscle or something. If AF doesn't arrive I will test again then. Not getting my hopes up but will stay positive. Hope everyone else is doing well! LOVE the new August board I will have to find something fun to add and join tomorrow!
-
@PawPrints: Sorry I am late but Congratulations!!!
-
@Kate6214: Thank you!!! I hope the same for you!!! FX!
@MrsMcD: Thank you! I'm glad you got me out of hiding! I think I needed a little boost anyway!
-
@mrsmcd: you can get them by texting DEVOTION to 51555
Another bfn this a.m. at 13ishdpo. Not gonna lie, even with our encouragement from yesterday it still stings. I did start getting some mild, af-like cramping yesterday. Strangely my boobs are not sore at all. Like nada. Def don't feel pg.
Silver lining if it's not this month: My EDD would have been in April, meaning I would miss the last 6 weeks or so of school with my kiddos. A May or June EDD would be more ideal, especially with it being my first year of teaching. I think since I cant seem to have a big family of my own, God is giving me kids in my class to love on. So that's pretty cool. God must have something truly amazing planned. Cuz this has sure been a trying, character-building time in my life!
-
@organicmama: sorry to hear about the bfn! You never know until you're out but I know the feeling. It sounds like you are already finding a silver lining if it is not your month. When does school start for you? Our schedule is insanely early so lots of kids start this week!
@ctegge0416: glad to hear your survived the wedding-- I remember you were not looking forward to it. We have a family wedding this weekend, just a day trip, and I am hoping it goes well but a little apprehensive. It is still early so maybe those are positive signs!
@Kate6214: @nicole112: hoping this is your month!
-
As for me, on cd16 with a temp spike of about .5 this am. It is very possible I o'ed but I also got up an hour before my alarm because I had to pee so time will tell if it is really a shift. We did bd EOD the last few days so I feel pretty good about our timing if this is it. Fingers crossed!
-
@MamaCate: I hope the wedding goes well for you!
AF should be here in the next two to three days so I am not too optimistic with those signs being my only ones although I am glad to finally be producing more CF. Since my MC I have been pretty dry all cycle long so maybe this next cycle I will get some EWCM which can help DH's swimmers along. FX! Where are you at in your cycle?
Where do you live? Is this a giant trip for you? I'd love to go soon but it will be a pretty big trip for me and DH.
