@mrs. tictactoe: I missed your news. Congratulations!! Praying that this baby sticks!!
-
@lilyofthewest: welcome! I hope your stay here is short! Good luck with the procedures- keep us posted.
@AmeliaBedilia: good luck with the talk! Family issues are so hard, and it's easy to be blind when it's your own family.
@PawPrints: right?! Immediately on my back with legs up. I'm glad you ladies get it.
@septca: I'm 1DPO and debating going to the gym. Rationally, I know it should be fine, but I'm always worried about knocking loose.
-
@Crystal: Thanks! I got home and DH immediately picked a fight with me because I didn't go get the groceries they decided they needed after I had already taken FIL to the grocery the day before. Plus, it was out of my way, and Saturday morning at the grocery=fiasco. DH becomes a different person around his father, and I am sure that he doesn't see it.
Sorry for all the complaining. I am just so annoyed, and I don't like complaining about DH to lots of people IRL because it just causes issues later.
-
@LindsayInNY: There is a circle and Bloom IUI program in the classifieds. I might be off base (sorry if so), but I seem to remember you looking for circle and bloom meditations.
-
@lilyofthewest: Welcome darling!! that is such awesome news about you LP!!!!!! I hope i see the same results this month post weaning. I hope your stay here is short.
@Pawprints Hooray for O!!!!
@Crystal: Go to the gym. Do a lighter workout if you feel nervous. Getting your blood circulating will be good.
@AmeliaBedilia: WOW! sounds like your husband is on thin ice! He better appreciate you helping to take care of his dad! Hugs and vent away.
CD13 and i have a question for you Preseed or C+ users: If you have stretchy EW the next morning is that YOU or is that the leftover stuff? Is C+ stretchy or does it get stretchy?
-
@MrsMccarthy: youre right. I'm just overthinking it. Thanks.
Good question, I can't ever tell what's me and what's that. If it's stretchy, it's likely you. Preseed is always very watery and not stretchy when I use it.
-
Annnnd the crazy is starting. I have to fly at 7 and 10DPO, and I just spent time googling if flying effects implantation. Mixed answers, FYI. I'm going to try to continue my zen approach to ttc this month and forget about it. (Yes, this is my version if zen, lol).
Sometimes I feel so embarrassed for all of the info I share here, but then I realize there is no one else besides you ladies who will understand and not judge me too harshly for it.
-
@MrsMccarthy: I don't know. For me, one of the downsides is that after I use either one, I can't tell what is me and what is lube.
-
@Crystal: we're here for you
Eta: go to the gym, I think you'll be fine, and it's great for stress.@AmeliaBedilia: good luck with the few more days of FIL visit. You'll get through it!
@MrsMccarthy: I wait until 10am to check, bc otherwise it's all one big mess
-
@Crystal: This is the place for all the crazy since TTC this long makes us crazy. As far as implantation: I try to look at all these extra things as not mattering and use the opposite approach. For example, no doctor would tell someone that if they fly during the TWW, they won't get pregnant. I don't think flying will make any difference. I think you have to do something extreme (like crack) in the TWW to affect implantation.
-
@AmeliaBedilia: my mom did crack and I turned out just fine. ( haha sorry just poking fun at people who use anecdotal evidence.) I agree that most pf the daily routine comings and goings are not going to hurt a healthy pregnancy. I used to be so nervous and careful but now I am more laid back about it all.
@dc yoga bee: yeah I'll do a second check a bit later and see. We won't BD tonight so I should get a clearer picture.
Very excited to see some BFPs tomorrow and the next day!!!
-
@MrsMccarthy: @crystal: @septca: here you are
not sewing buttons on till we know what sex, started sewing the fitted nappies after I got my bfp.
-
@Crystal: I'm pretty sure not being into it doesn't affect chances thank god, talk about more pressure! How's the conceive + working out?
@MrsMccarthy: Just read about your scare with DH's job, oh my goodness I'm glad that turned out well! And congrats on the loosing weight.
@Crystal: I remodelled my entire front garden the day before my bfp, felt pretty guilty but then thought about all the things people must have done before they food out. Air hostesses must fly pg all the time... If I get stressed I think about how deep inside you your uterus is and how it is so protected.
-
Just stopping in to say hi...the rest if my week still sucked, but now we're going out if town for the weekend for a wedding, which should be fun! Lots and kits if friends there and we're camping afterwards. I'll update the list with my POAS date when we get back, but I'm not hopeful abou this month since little and ill times BD due to various factors.
-
@Snowdrop: AHHHHH those are so perfectly adorable and wonderful!! i can't wait to see your baby in them.
I wish i had an ounce of your talent. Seriously!!!@sapphire: Have an awesome weekend honey!!!
-
@Snowdrop: my crazy brain is worried about the air pressure effecting implantation. Emphasis on crazy.
-
@Snowdrop: those are adorable!!!! So cute!!! Knit?
-
@septca: I forget, are you testing today? Good luck if so!
-
@dc yoga bee: no, no, no, NO!!! Tomorrow. But after sleeping 10 hours last night and taking a nap today, I'm sticking to my gut instinct.
@Snowdrop: ADORABLE!!
@Crystal: Go! You'll feel better and less stressed.
-
@septca: LOL!!!! Don't know how I got confused
Someone please tell me we don't have to bd again today on O+1?!? If we haven't caught it in the past four days, oh well. Right?? I'm tired.
-
@dc yoga bee: you know my feelings on this: O+1 is useless.
-
@septca: I know I know. I'm just trying to go balls to the wall since we will miss next month
buttt hopefully I won't even need next month! You're 10hrs of sleep sounds promising! I think you're totally KU!
-
@septca: EEP!
@dc yoga bee: I think you're good so long as you got a positve OPK and now it's negative.
-
@MrsMccarthy: honestly it is so easy to learn!
@Crystal: Yes, I've kind of stalled on them now though, got a half done pair of pants I need to get the energy to finish.
@dc yoga bee: I never bothered with after O and then I read a study that after O conceptions led to more chemicals so that sealed it for me!
-
@Snowdrop: I love the yellow sweater. I may go crazy with crocheting when I have a wee person who will wear the clothes (cats are not so inclined, trust me). I do not have the discipline to make it all the way through making adult sized clothing.
-
@lilyofthewest: same here! I was knitting a sweater for my dog but she looked sooo sad when I put it on her and grown up stuff is boring!
-
@septca: you are 13DPO today? Eek!!! Promising signs.
When you have you typically started feeling symptoms?
@lilyofthewest: @Snowdrop: i can crochet hats, and Knit blankets, but that's the extent of my abilities. I'm so jealous you are so talented.
Thanks all, I went to the gym and it was great. The gym hasn't been part of my regular routine in months, but regardless of TTC status, I need to get back for mental and physical health.
-
Feeling a little down...every day I see more and more people post on Facebook their pregnancy announcement. It makes me feel depressed and I just want to be there...I want to be posting my pregnancy announcement.
sorry guys
-
@nicolechris11212: lots of hugs. I think a lot of us can relate.
-
@Crystal: I think septca is 9DPO today or so. Very excited for tomorrow's results. Good luck in the early TWW yourself. This is the harder part. Exercise always helps. Need thy serotonin. A little chocolate can help that too.
I'm really hoping I O early this month so I can enter my TWW soon too. Monday would be ideal because CD15 is my body like clockwork.
@nicolechris11212: I'm so sorry honey. It's such ebbs and flows with this stuff. I feel like a crazy person because one day I can feel so hopeful and positive and the next I it can all feel so futile. I want you to be posting your pregnancy announcement too! And you will. But till then this is the place to bring all of the sadness and anger and envy. Those ups and downs are hard.
-
@septca: fx!!!!
-
@crystal: thanks
I'm sure almost everyone here can relate. I'm so grateful for all of you! You all make this process so much easier instead of doing it alone! I pray for myself and all of you for our bfp's!! 
-
@mrsmccarthy: thanks
so true. You have your moments. Some days I'm like "this is the month...it's going to happen..." And other moments "I'm dreading AF and I know she's going to come this month". Ugh so annoying. Let's get our bfp's and be done with it!! Love you ladies -
@nicolechris11212: come off it for a while, I did that in the midst of a baby boom last year and it helped me soo much. Announcements are so hard.
-
@septca: update?
-
@septca:
-
@septca:
When all was said and done, we hit O-4, O-3, O-2, O-1, and O+1. We skipped O, which I don't love, but still gave me a "high" chance in FF.
-
@Crystal: that's amazing timing!!! Not to worry
-
@Crystal:
!!!!!Thanks for checking in on me, ladies.
#%*@!!!!!!!!
But - silver lining - there is *something* going on with my boobs. They feel like pregnant boobs. So if I'm not KU - and I have a couple more days until I am out - then maybe all this soreness and tingling and sensitivity means that I am finally regaining some perk and fullness in my BFing-ravaged chest???!?! One can hope!!!! -
@MrsMccarthy: @septca: FX!!!!
@septca: you're 10DPO? Still early days yet!
buttt hopefully I won't even need next month! You're 10hrs of sleep sounds promising! I think you're totally KU!
!!!!!
