Mwilson scheduled bding can be so hard without some help from lube. Whilst the bd that resulted in conception of my daughter was a random, unplanned bd I think the fact I'd had a few glasses of wine and asked dh to give me a back massage (which I never do but was desperate for some muscle ache relief) helped me super relax so when things took a turn during the massage my body responded naturally and I was able to enjoy a normal bd for the first time in a long time. If you dont drink alcohol maybe try a warm bath together? Anything to help relax and let your body respond naturally will hopefully help.

I looked it up and I guess "ovulation spotting" can happen with some women, although it's not super common. I've never had it before and it may have just been something more related to the m/c but who knows. Do you think you might have just ovulated? Are you tracking with OPKs or temping?
ABC, I did track with OPKs but never got a positive over a 5 day span and just decided to take a break and stop POAS. I tend to over analyze/obsess so I’m not temping or anything. I have a feeling that it could be ovulation OR a heavy drop in progesterone. Ovulating late is definitely how we got 2 of my boys so that is not out of the realm of possibilities. This would be my first spotting this far outside of my projected AF. Thanks for responding!! I have never heard of ovulation spotting. That’s something for me to read up on!

Well ladies, my sister in law just announced to me that she's six weeks pregnant. Our sons are already six months a part (my son is two) and now she's pregnant prior to me. On top of it all, she wants a girl as badly as I do. I have a lot of mixed emotions as our husband's come from a family of three brothers and then three grandsons so the want within the family for a girl is real.
I'm happy for her, I really am. I just feel sad it's not me, I now have to potentially share this pregnancy journey with her (if I can ever get pregnant) and she's highly competitive with me as is (I still really don't know why, but that's a separate issue) and there's that underlying feeling of "what if she has a girl and I don't."
Sorry ladies, this may not be the appropriate forum to post on. I just needed to let someone besides my husband know I'm happy and sad all at the same time and it's a weird mix of emotions to have.

Eighme I totally would be feeling the same, my DH brothers wife (my sister in law) is trying too and we both have sons and she wants a girl too and none of the children on DH side have had a girl so I know the whole family are waiting especially my mother in law! I’ll be very jealous if she concieved first, it’s silly isn’t it?
Still no sign of o for me *sigh*

January 2018 TTC & 2ww thread
That’s my sis in law and cousin for me. We all had DCs around the same time. Actually, one had her DS 4 days before me using castor oil and had to be rushed in by ambulance. Too weak and dehydrated to push, she had an EMCS. Smh.
I tell myself that, I have the added advantage of actively swaying. So I’m praying we get our bfp this month!!!!!! Have all my pink dust ladies.
Girlswaylondon, that was me last month. Just be vigilant, make sure you catch the pos opk. It might just be an indication that your sway is working and your systems adjusting!

Fitzma it’s strange because the diet actually moved my o date forward for 3 Months which I took as a good sign but this month it’s later than ever!

I know it’s frustrating! With the e4d exposure maybe that could have altered the o dates? Just speculating. Can you imagine though what a ‘non issue’ this would be if you got a bfp this month? Try focus on that. Don’t dwell on it being late. Easier said than done right? Hang in there!!xx

I'm so glad to have people who understand! I feel like it sounds crazy, it is just a gender after all. But it's just this weird underlying pressure to have a girl coupled with the fact I actually do want a girl!
I just tell myself that I have the luxury of swaying and tilting the scale in my favor since I am still not pregnant yet.
But man I wish I got a BFP this month
