@septca: I was happy to see spotting this past cycle too! I'm sorry for the rough day, I hope you enjoyed a couple drinks last night! HUGS!!
@sandy: I'm thinking about you right now!! GOOD LUCK!
Today is CD3 and I am starting Clomid today. I think I'm just going to take them in the morning in hopes that the side effects don't really bother me too much. It's a three day weekend at work, so I"ll have today and Tuesday at work on the pill. @Mrs.Panda I'm right behind you on this cycle. Good luck to you, and let me know how you've been feeling!!

@fotolori1: I try and drink green tea but not really sure if t actually helps.
@babycanuck: how can you not like picturesvof yourself?! You are lovely!
@mrsmccarthy: I am CD18 and 1DPO. Officially in the TWW! DH had another problem last night, coudn't believe it, so now even though we BD three times in a row we actually only hit O -1 . We talked about it (I pretended I didn't care) and I asked him what he was thinking about. He said coming!! I suggested that that might be the problem! Urgh men! I thought we had sorted this out on cycle 2/3.

@dc yoga bee: aww than ks darlin!
@sarahnicole218: good luck with clomid this cycle!
@Snowdrop: poor guy and poor you! If its any consolation someone once posted a graph on here that showed O-2 as the most common conception date. I'm thinking the CM must be thickest then or something. FX for you my dear!

Thanks Ladies (pardon me while I hide and blush).
I am on CD14 and just getting back onto my vitamins this month after being so sick. We shall see what happens. 6 more days until Hubs' SA test, I hope we get results quickly.

@Snowdrop: We ended not being able to DTD because of that and I felt so let down by DH. We now do every other day because DH just can't DTD everyday. He has a very stressful job and it really takes a toll on him. Hang in there doll! It only takes 1 time.

@Mrs.Panda: We finally did the IUI yesterday and have our beta scheduled on the 31st but I think we're going to POAS on the 29th. So I am officially in the TWW once again now

Also, today is my and DH's ten year anniversary! I had unofficially set today as our goal to have a BFP months ago but alas it has not happened. Here's to hoping we have good news soon though!

@MrsMccarthy: & @littlek: thank you! He did manage on the day of best cm thank goodness.
Who would have thought men have a problem with this sort of stuff?! Until we started TTC I literally thought he was ALWAYS up for it!

@Sandy: Updates?!?!?
@Mrs.Panda: Can you please move me to the roll-over list? I am not sure who will be handling this thread next month (I can possibly volunteer), but I will be a cheerleader in February and will be back to POalltheSs in March.
I have to run to a meeting, but I have a lot of thoughts on this cycle and where we go next, so I'll update in a bit.

@septca: Oooo, I'm intrigued! Left us with a cliffhanger...looking forward to your update!

So even though I knew what the results would be, I decided to POAS this morning. Might as well, right?? just as I thought. Oh well.

@septca: I'm sorry you're a rollover love. I'm intrigued as well by your upcoming update!

@sandy:
@sarahnicole218: @dc yoga bee: I'm sorry to sound so mysterious! It's really nothing exciting...
@littlek: Only taking the month "off" out of necessity. In February I should O from my blocked side, so although we will use OPKs and "try," it'll likely be a dud cycle so I try not to let myself get caught up in possibility.
So, moving on! This cycle was significantly more "normal" than my last cycle, so I hope that means that my body is getting back to regular. As of this week, I am only nursing DD at wake up and bedime, and the hormonal roller coaster of weaning + AF has been almost too much to bear. Thankfully, with AF here I now feel comfortable taking mass quantities of Advil to deal with the headaches. Last night was great - DH opened a nice bottle of wine and we had a nice dinner. I am feeling dramatically better - mentally and physically - today, so I am ready to move on to whatever is next.
Having next month "off" is okay, as I would really like to see my body get back to normal. I can't quite put my finger on what it is, but for some reason I feel like my body is not ready to be pregnant yet. I think this has a lot to do with BFing... so I am going to post a thread asking if people noticed a change in their cycles once they had totally weaned. If any of you second + timers have thoughts, I'd love to hear them! That brings me to the next big question in my life: whether I should work to completely wean DD before my next real cycle in March. Part of me is ready to be done BFing and thinks that my body needs to quit in order to conceive, but there is another part of me that is not ready to lose that bond with DD. So, I have some serious emotions about this that I need to grapple with before I make a decision.

@dc yoga bee: @littlek: At least I was expecting it and hadn't really gotten my hopes up. Maybe I need to try upping the amount of times we BD in case I haven't even ovulated yet!
@sandy: Boo, sorry you saw a BFN too!
cantaloupe / 6687 posts
@Adira: hopefully next month is our month
@septca: please do host if you're not planning to POAS...it would feel weird with* you participating somehow
ETA: *I meant without obviously
GOLD / pomegranate / 3688 posts
@sandy: I hope you meant withOUT me participating. In which case, thanks!!

@sandy: We knowwww! I just saw your BFN post. ((hugs) It really really stinks to see those.

@dc yoga bee: i had a dream that I woke up to test and AF had arrived so that's what i expected when I actually woke up. When I didn't see AF I was pretty hopeful. Oh well, onto next month!

@sandy: Awe man! I had a dream I cheated on my husband! I have the cra-zie-est dreams! I never ever dream about babies, or pregnancy testing, or anything though

FX its all of our months next month!
@septca: Sounds like last night was exactly what you needed, and the next cycle will help things along even more. ::hugs::
@Snowdrop: I know what you mean!
I may or may not have gotten irrationally upset when DH didn't want to BD again last night. We ended up doing it, so maybe its my new seduction technique?
I also used an OPK this morning for the first time. HolyHell those things are small. I thought I might be able to just pee on it without getting the cups, but there is no way I can do that without getting it all over the test. I will pick some up on my way home.
grapefruit / 4770 posts
@Crystal: See, I have terrible aim trying to pee inside the cup. So gross. I'm much better just peeing on the stick. And we have all been there before with knowing we need to BD, but our DH just not getting it sometimes.
GOLD / squash / 13576 posts
@sandy: Same thing happened to me.. I woke up, went to the bathroom and saw nothing.. so I started to get excited.. And then I went to the bathroom before leaving for work and saw I was spotting.. it was crushing..

@dc yoga bee: It was only CD9, so I don't know why it bothered me so much. But I am glad we did it.
Way TMI, but how do you keep it below the max line? That was my big issue, I think it got all over the damn thing.
grapefruit / 4028 posts
Is anyone that was "out" going to be able to test again before the end of the month?
