I mean you hear crazy stories like that so it definitely happens. fingers crossed! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/over-thinking-during-ttc#post-1449796 Tue, 25 Feb 2014 21:51:56 +0000 HolisticMama 1449796@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@septca: LOL. I definitely like the idea of over drinking. LOL. But I have decided I will try to limit drinking only to the weekends. I would like to lose a few lbs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/over-thinking-during-ttc#post-1449786 Tue, 25 Feb 2014 21:43:45 +0000 FaithFertility 1449786@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bhbee: Yay, sounds like you got it this cycle! I'm now wishing I did OPKs...lol but I'm going to say AF is due 3/2 CD28..... I've not ovulated on my own in over 5 months, but hey anything can happen right?!?!? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/over-thinking-during-ttc#post-1449785 Tue, 25 Feb 2014 21:43:32 +0000 septca 1449785@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Every time I see this thread I think it says overDRinking during the TWW. And I'm like, yes, of course. Doesn't everyone??? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/over-thinking-during-ttc#post-1449778 Tue, 25 Feb 2014 21:39:41 +0000 bhbee 1449778@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FaithFertility: yes we didn't trigger and I wanted to make sure our TI was at the right time. but at least I didn't start testing until CD14 so it didn't stress me out (I actually managed to ovulate on time for me at CD16!)<br /> I hope your relaxation month produces good news :happy: when is AF due do you think? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/over-thinking-during-ttc#post-1449715 Tue, 25 Feb 2014 20:57:58 +0000 FaithFertility 1449715@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bhbee: Did you use OPKs this month????? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/over-thinking-during-ttc#post-1449710 Tue, 25 Feb 2014 20:55:43 +0000 FaithFertility 1449710@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Everything this month...we are taking a break from IF meds and such and I did not OPKs this month and really just let it all go.....but now I am 22days from CD1 and over thinking it ALL.... Did I ovulate? did we BD near CD14?...bahhhhhhh.....lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/over-thinking-during-ttc#post-1449383 Tue, 25 Feb 2014 18:10:52 +0000 ChiCalGoBee 1449383@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. tictactoe: ugh-I'm the same way! I've been telling myself that my "symptoms" are all in my head and to chill the bleep out! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/over-thinking-during-ttc#post-1449238 Tue, 25 Feb 2014 16:49:57 +0000 Radish 1449238@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I certainly have my moments, but I'm trying to lay off the over-analyzing because it got me no where last cycle (plus with weaning who knows what is going on with my body). Our goal is to DTD EOD or more and time will tell... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/over-thinking-during-ttc#post-1449103 Tue, 25 Feb 2014 16:05:51 +0000 mrs. tictactoe 1449103@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@snowjewelz: I do the same thing. One minute I'm telling myself everything is normal and the next I'm analyzing whether I feel extra tired or nauseas. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/over-thinking-during-ttc#post-1449100 Tue, 25 Feb 2014 16:04:30 +0000 bhbee 1449100@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@HolisticMama: I usually count a near-positive as positive because I don't always see a true positive, but I know I ovulate. you may be in the same boat! like I generally get a near positive in the afternoon and see a temp rise the next day. and I've at least started 5 pregnancies so we're doing something right . . .</p> <p>but to the original post, I over think EVERYTHING at this point. I try to remind myself that in truth probably not much of what I do or don't do really matters, it's the miracle (or lack thereof) of biology and I can only do so much. I try to minimize forced BD to just what is needed and I try to ignore all my symptoms (this last part never works of course, I am 8dpo and going nuts!).</p> <p>I definitely wish it were possible to turn it off. it takes up too much of my mental space. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/over-thinking-during-ttc#post-1449040 Tue, 25 Feb 2014 15:48:21 +0000 HolisticMama 1449040@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsMccarthy: I have never seen a fully positive OPK. SO sad.<br /> :: sniff :: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/over-thinking-during-ttc#post-1448840 Tue, 25 Feb 2014 14:52:41 +0000 MrsMccarthy 1448840@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A positive OPK or near positive also helps </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/over-thinking-during-ttc#post-1448837 Tue, 25 Feb 2014 14:51:55 +0000 MrsMccarthy 1448837@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That's why temping helps so much as does my CBEF monitor. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/over-thinking-during-ttc#post-1448811 Tue, 25 Feb 2014 14:45:04 +0000 pui 1448811@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was definitely guilty of that. TTC is one of those things that is really hard not to over think. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/over-thinking-during-ttc#post-1448809 Tue, 25 Feb 2014 14:43:44 +0000 Snowdrop 1448809@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I over think everything when it comed to TTC. Wish my brain had an off button sometimes hahaha! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/over-thinking-during-ttc#post-1447793 Tue, 25 Feb 2014 09:54:28 +0000 snowjewelz 1447793@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am a very conflicted person when it comes to over thinking haha. Part of me over-analyze every time I feel different. I now even look into whether my dog's acting weird. But part of me don't want to over think at all so that I am not as disappointed when I don't get a BFP. So I'm constantly going between 'Oh this is nothing' and 'Oh could this be?!' </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/over-thinking-during-ttc#post-1447732 Tue, 25 Feb 2014 09:39:42 +0000 LBee 1447732@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Totally common - you are definitely not alone! TTC forces you to be so in-tune with your body and to analyze (sometimes overanalyze) every pinch and prick you feel. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/over-thinking-during-ttc#post-1447691 Tue, 25 Feb 2014 09:28:51 +0000 HolisticMama 1447691@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Do you ever over think during your TTC journey?<br /> Since I had that weird cycle last month- I am thinking that every time I feel a slight twinge or remotely amorous that we will need to DTD just in case I missed ovulation or something. </p> <p>I think we are planning on DTD every 3-5 days anyways just in case.... So I truly am over thinking. </p> <p>What are you over thinking? </p> [attach=4604/14/n1k2w3.300x285.Overthinking-300x285.jpg]
