TTC a BOY, June Chit Chat Thread

[Plum3]

Ohhhhh Bec!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ;)

I know!!!

[Cinss]

Wow Bec.... YIPPEE :)

[dloui128]

That is awesome news Bec!!!!!

[babyblessings]

Dloui - so happy for you - congrats once again :highfive:

And oh wow Bec !!! so very excited for you!
Thanks for asking - unfortunately, I think I only got in one attempt -we'll just have to wait and see... I guess that means that I am in the 2ww. Hope your two pink lines are there to stay & AF has taken a 9 month vacation! ;)

[Cinss]

My OPKs have been stark white negative for the last 3 days, ive never seen them so light, would it be because i am drinking so much water? My urine is very very light in colour, almost clear. I thought i would have had a + by now but maybe its going to be today, i really hope so because i only have 1 left. Ill have to go to the chemist tomorrow and get more if i dont see a + today.

[TTC5]

Bec - did you test this morning ;)

Cinss, try not to drink for an hour before you test x

[Plum3]

Cinss, my positive OPKs were always a little lighter when I had had a lot to drink.

Yep, I did test, 5. It's darker :)

[Kris217]

Great news Bec!!!

[TTC5]

Can we say congrats yet ;)

[babyblessings]

Bec! Yay!! I'm with TTC5 on this one - surely its now safe to say the C word cos its sure sound like you are the P word! :-)
Cinss - whats happening??

Please could you girls help me with a dilemma I am having: since this month was so weird for me, I have stopped taking some of my supplements *in case* I am well, you know, the P word ;-) And I am not sure they are safe to take if you are? -- Things like URAL, extra potassium, zinc and vit D? how have you all approached this? I am still doing the HE diet, and still drinking V8 and coconut water and lemon water.

And then secondly, TTC5 - were you exercising at all for your sway? I know you were Dloui - I am not doing much at all (except for carrying and lifting heavy kids!) and was interested you hear how important you girls thought this was to swaying.

[Plum3]

Haha, ok I think it's safe to say it ;)

Babyblessings, ural should only be taken from AF to O but I'm not sure about the potassium. Zinc & vit D are fine to take. In terms of exercising, I think it is important because it raises testosterone levels. I lift weights 2-3 times a week and do a bit of cardio as well. Have been doing the weights for 12 months now so hopefully it's made some difference.

[Kris217]

Congrats Bec! :)

[babyblessings]

thanks bec! annnnnnd.....

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!

[Mochagirl]

Just butting in here to say congrats to Bec!!

Ural Zinc and Vit D are all fine. Potassium, I would wean off.

No I did not exercise ;)

[TTC5]

Bec - CONGRATULATIONS :pickuphappy:

For me personally I think diet and exercise was important to me only because I NEVER exercised at all before so I wanted to do the complete opposite of what I use to do. So I started the HE diet and started going to the gym, I definitely think it helped up my T levels.
If you can't go to the gym you could do all kinds of things at home that would be beneficial as well if you want to exercise.

[dloui128]

PoP- how are things? do you think the soy has helped? Have you made a decision on the job yet?

Cinss-did anything change with the OPK's?

Bec-congratulations again :) what is your due date?

[auroara78]

baby blessings, I was moderately lifting weights and doing 20-30 mins of cardio 3-4 times a week when DS1 and DS2 opps happened to me :) I totally believe it was my healthy, high protein healthy fat diet and the moderate excerise I was doing that got me 2 boys.

Bec, I am sooooo excited for you!!!!!!!!!!

[Cinss]

Bec Congrats Hun, here's to a HH pregnancy :)

Babyblessings, i understand the dilemma, you figure you could be preggers so there is really no need to continue on the supps. Just to be on the safe side though i would say continue a prenatal, Vit D is fine unless you are getting lots of sun, and folic acid is always good to take. Ural can be dropped for sure, it really shouldnt be taken for more than 5 days in a row before O. Sounds like you have the right idea though continue the HE diet, and if you are not working out it wouldnt really make a difference at this stage if you are pregnant. Buuuuut (im sorry to say it) if you are not pregnant (i hope you are) but if you arent, it would be a good idea to do a little workout every couple of days, so that next month you have that under your belt too. :)

As for me my OPK was almost + last night so i think it will be + today and i seem to O on the day of my + so we did 1 attempt last night with a teeny tiny bit of preseed. We will try again tonight, i am thinking about TBM tonight just because DPs load will be smaller. His load last night was huge (sorry TMI warning) I was spilling so much of it out, it was like a flood, i had my knees up and even tried crossing my legs but there was such a huge wet patch on the sheets :(

[TTC5]

Cinss FX for you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Pop how are you going?

[dloui128]

Good luck Cinss. I put a couple pillows under my butt after and held my legs up in the air that seemed to help and it gave DH a good laugh

[babyblessings]

:(

(Aurora and dloui too) I am afraid that if I start now, my body will think its in 'losing weight' mode?

[Cinss]

babyblessings sorry by workout i mean lifting weights not cardio. The reason lifting weights is good for a boy sway is because it raises our testosterone levels. Examples of excersises would be -

Calf raises, Sit ups, Push ups, Squats, Bicep curls with weights, Triceps with weights. Just for about 15mins 3 times a week.

But its not extreemly important and don't feel like you have to if you dont want to.

Ahhhhh, ok! I get it :-)
Thanks so much Cinss -- I really don't think I am UTD -- having quite a few cramp-type feelings yesterday and today - exactly how I usually feel a week before AF is due :-(
So I will definitely add your exact suggestion into my sway for next month - sounds not only do-able, but exactly what I need to be doing on the HE diet lol! can't handle this flabbiness on my belly!

[Plum3]

Thankyou all for your wishes :) I think my due date is Feb 27th.

Babyblessings, just back onto ural again... I know it's safe to take during pregnancy for a short time but I wouldn't take it during the 2ww unless it was necessary. The salt content is too high to be taken for a prolonged amount of time. Like Cinss said, weight exercises will only help your sway.

Cinss, the TBM might be worth a shot if you leaked so much last night. My DH wanted to give it a go too but we were too 'in the moment' to stop and do it.

PoP, Lola, how are you ladies?

I am having a blood test tomorrow, feeling a bit nervous!

[dloui128]

(Aurora and dloui too) I am afraid that if I start now, my body will think its in 'losing weight' mode?

Just what Cinss said. If you are doing the HE diet and eating the protein and everything else you should be then lifting weights a few times a week is not going to make you lose weight, you will build muscle and that raises T levels. I worked out 2-3 times a week for 30 mins and did all weights no cardio, but I'm sure you could do some cardio if you wanted to.

[Cinss]

So i did end up doing the TBM last night haha. It was a funny different experience. I had DP release into a cup then i sucked it up with a syringe, had a little preseed inserted already, put my finger in to find my cervix opening and realised it is actually angled a little to the left, i never really knew that before, so it was a little difficult to get the syringe in the right place, maybe i should have that checked out? Anyway after it was over i didnt spill a drop, but as i was laying there with my legs up i realised i didn't have the big O, ahh well nothing i can do about that now. I had a temp rise today so i definatly think i Od yesterday. FX

[dloui128]

FX'd this is your month Cinss!!!!

[Kris217]

That's kinda how I got pregnant so FX it works for you!! And I think it's ok that your cervix is a little to one side, my partners is too and I think she said mine was at one stage so I'm thinking it's normal but you could always ask your doc about it to make sure.

[TTC5]

How did the BT go, Bec?

Cinss, FX!!!

[TTC5]

Look at my ticker - 100 days to go!!!!! :D

[Plum3]

Cinss, FX this month is the one!

My HCG today (14dpo) was 651 and progesterone was 87. And now, because I'm such a worrier, I worry that this level is too high. I'm having another blood test on Monday to check my levels again.

[Princess of Pink]

Fingers crossed for you Cinss!! This has got to be your month finally.....when will you be due if you are UTD??

Massive congrats again Bec....your numbers sound great!!

I am just waiting to O....god knows when that will happen....anytime between sunday and 2 weeks from then lol. No idea when to start attempts?? It is getting so disheartening and stressful that some days my mind starts swaying and thinking I should just give up and be happy with my 5 girls. Then I see a baby or someone talks about being pregnant and I want one again. Just wish I knew when I was going to get pregnant...or that I wasn't going to have another one...so I could get on with my life and stop obsessing over when it will happen!!

[Plum3]

Thanks PoP! I would start attempting now, DTD every 2nd or 3rd day to make sure you don't miss your window. Hopefully the soy isoflavones will get your O back on track.

[LolaInLove]

Hey ladies, just catching back up....

HUGE CONGRATS to Bec and Dloui!!!

Cinss, hope your TBM worked for you this month!

As for me, I think we are giving up, so I've been purposefully not coming on here. I am definitely getting depressed and my DH is tired of seeing me sad all the time. He pointed out that he knows I love coming to this website, but it's probably not good for me, and I think he is right. I'll still check in from time to time.....I just don't think I can keep ttc. It's pretty much consumed me for the past 2 years and I need to move on and put my focus into the family we have and work and all. Anyway, not to be a bummer, but I think it's the best thing for me to do. And I don't want to do IVF anymore, I'm scared of it and I think it's stupid for us to spend all that money and then have no money for a baby, or babies. But, love you all to death and super happy that good things are happening for you all!!!!! xoxo

[Princess of Pink]

Big hugs Lola...I will miss you so much but COMPLETELY understand...although from another point of view. I had to leave a board full of friends similar to this when I had #5....I just couldn't cope when almost everyone else got the dream gender and I was one of very few who got another of the same. The board made me so depressed and it was affecting my life badly so I had to leave and throw myself back into my life. Take care and I hope with all my heart that one day you get that oops baby!

[LolaInLove]

Thanks, POP! I will definitely post in the FB group, not leaving that for sure. I think I just need a break and to figure out what we need to do.

[Mochagirl]

Lola - we will miss you very much. I hope taking some time off will help you find peace with whatever you decide to do. I hope good things come your way - you deserve it! :HH:

[dloui128]

You will definitely be missed Lola, your reasoning is 100% understandable. I wish you and your family well and I agree with PoP I hope you get your oops baby :)

[TTC5]

I have had a bleed so heading to hospital x

[dloui128]

Oh no hope everything is ok

[Cinss]

Bec try not to worry, im sure everything will be fine :)

Pop goodluck for catching the egg, i would dtd every second day till you get your +opk, hang in there this could be your month, then you dont have to decide to stop or keep going.

Lola im sorry you have been feeling down lately :( I can only imagine what it must feel like 2 years later. Big huggs, you will be missed around here for sure. I hope you pop in one day announcing your oops baby too. xx

TTC5 i hope everything is ok, try to relax, i know that must be hard. Thinking of you. xx

[TTC5]

I've been admitted and had steroid injection incase he comes soon.

[Cinss]

I've been admitted and had steroid injection incase he comes soon.

I hope the injection wasn't too painful :( I hope you will be ok and able to go home soon. xx

[Princess of Pink]

Hope he stays inside for at least 10 more weeks.

[Butterfly Spirit]

TTC5, I hope little boy behaves and stays in to cook a bit longer! Keep us updated! :HH:

[Plum3]

Lola, you will be missed very much on here. I'm sorry life is being unfair at the moment ((hugs)) xxx

5, that little boy can't come yet. Tell him to stay put!

[dloui128]

TTC5 you tell that little man its not time to come out yet

[babyblessings]

Lola - I have not been around for very long, but I can tell that you will be missed by everyone. A special thank you for the little bits you have helped me with!
I wish you the very best, and hope and pray that life brings you all your are wishing for!

Oh no TTC5, So sorry to hear this! prayers and crossed fingers that baby boy stays put and that you are home again real soon! please keep us posted!

[LolaInLove]

TTC5....oh no!!!! Hope everything is ok, love!

Thanks, everyone. I will still be around, just sparsely. Cinss, hopefully you are right and I can pop on with a surprise bfp, but who knows. Honestly, right now I want some donor sperm but DH is not into that yet, so I'm kind of at a standstill trying to decide what is the most important thing for us right now. I think my brain is in desperation mode, and I need to get more balanced so I don't make a big mistake, kwim? Anyway, will be around here and there. I gotta see what a few of you team green ladies pop out, and pics of Baby Mochagirl and Lillian too!

[skrimpy]

Oh 5 I hope all is well and your little man stays put. You take it easy hun!!!

[skrimpy]

Lola I will miss you so much, but understand needing to take a step back and figure out what's going on and what's best for your life, family, and marriage. (((hugs))) and I will be thinking about you.

[auroara78]

Lola, you will be greatly missed!!!!!!!!!!! You have offered us so much great level-headed advice...thank you for it all :) I am hoping you get an opps preg too, but hoping maybe DH will come along to the idea of doner sperm eventually :pray: I do hope you come back and do check back on us, cuz I know I will for sure be posting pics of baby Lillian when she arrives /hugs!!!!

TTC5, oh no, hope baby boy can stay in a little longer!

Bec, isn't that level good? are you worried about twins maybe?

PoP, i agree about starting to DTD every 2 or 3rd day just to get started

[Cinss]

Fingers crossed for you Cinss!! This has got to be your month finally.....when will you be due if you are UTD??



12th of March :)

[dloui128]

Has anyone heard from 5?

[Cinss]

Has anyone heard from 5?

Just on FB, she was having contractions last night, they have stopped now.

[dloui128]

Just on FB, she was having contractions last night, they have stopped now.

Thank goodness they stopped

[Foxy]

Hope all is well TTC5!

Lola - I wish you all the best! Hope you come back soon with some good news. :HH:

[Plum3]

Auroara, it is a good level. It's just quite high so I can't help worry a little about what that could mean in terms of the health of the baby (Down Syndrome, molar pregnancy etc). I always find something to stress about!

I'm having another blood test tomorrow morning. Hoping for 'textbook' betas!

General advice please I have my OPK this evening day 14 - three days earlier than expected!! When is the best time to try tomorrow morning or tomorrow night? Any advice appreciated!!

Thanks

[dloui128]

Chitchat if you have a positive OPK I would DTD today and tomorrow and I would actually DTD until it went negative

[TTC5]

Good Luck today Bec x x

[dloui128]

TTC5 how are you?

[babyblessings]

Good luck for the tests today Bec!

All ok TTC5? Are you home?

Chitchat - I would DTD today, tomorrow and the next day - like dloui says-- until it turns negative
Good luck!

[auroara78]

TTC5, i hope baby boy stays put for longer..hopefully the hospital stay won't be too bad..how long you staying there? for a while?

Bec curious to hear your beta's! Hope all is well!

/waves to everyone else!

[chitchat123]

Thanks all for your help, have DTD today so fingers crossed :-)

Good luck to all this month and TTC5 hope all is well

[TTC5]

TTC5 how are you?

Home on bed rest and only spotting now. Follow up at hospital on Friday :)

[dloui128]

Home on bed rest and only spotting now. Follow up at hospital on Friday :)

What do they think caused the bleeding and contractions?

[Plum3]

5, glad to hear everything is going ok at the moment. FX the bleeding and contractions don't come back!

I got my beta results- it was in the 5000's. The doctor wasn't at her computer when she called me and she couldn't remember the exact number. It should have been at least 4000 so things are on track :) Still high for dpo but I'm trying not to worry about it!

[TTC5]

Twins Bec :)

My bleeding was from a slight abruption from the low placenta trying to shift and not adhering to my previous scar .

[Kris217]

Great news Bec!
5 is your placenta going to be a problem giving birth then?

[TTC5]

Kris - if it is still low lying then I will need a csection.

[Plum3]

It's even high for twin betas. Anyway, time will tell!

[Plum3]

PoP, how are you going? Do you think O is close?

[TTC5]

Do you have an increased chance of twins or triplets from the meds, Bec?

[Plum3]

Well my doc said that there was only one dominant follicle but I saw on the screen that there was a smaller one next to it. I guess I could have released two if the smaller one grew big enough.

[babyblessings]

Glad that you are both looking ok Bec and TTC5 -- fingers crossed all stays that way

Well, as for me - I guess this month was not our month. After 2 BFN a few days ago, AF arrived today :'-(

[Kris217]

Kris - if it is still low lying then I will need a csection.

Ahh ok, so at what stage will they decide on that?

[auroara78]

Ah, babyblesings, so sorry to hear about the BFN :(

You going to try again this coming cycle? It would be more time on diet, etc. Could be a good thing :)

TTC5, I'm glad they know the cause of the bleeding. I hope it does move so you can have a vag. birth.

Bec, when will you have a scan? 6 or 8 weeks to see the beanie(s)? hehehehe

[chitchat123]

Bec - Congrats
Babyblessings - good luck for next month sorry to hear on BPN
TTC5 - pleased back home

We DTD 6am Monday after OPK at 6pm Sunday the previous night, now worried that may have tried too early as trying to combine Diet & Shettles style approach but now have pain in my ovaries 2 days after OPK (6pm Tuesday), does that mean I am now only ovulating so tried too early :-( In a way now will be happy if BFP so can perfect the attempt better next month!! Any advice appreciated.

Take care all and good luck - lots of baby dust to everyone!

[babyblessings]

Thank you chit chat, and thanks Bec. So disappointing, but as you say, longer on everything can only mean a better sway ;)

Any advice appreciated.

having 'failed' this month, I am probably not a good one for advice, but-- I alot of people on this site really stand by the idea that timing (shettles) is not as important as diet etc (sorry shettles fans ;(). And I must tell you that BOTH DD's of mine were conceived right ontop of ovulation! I would say that 6am monday, 6am tuesday, 6 am wednesday AND 6 am thursday is a great attempt - remember that you want as much :bluesperm: up there as possible, so you keep 'adding' to whats there! I would keep going til you get a negative OPK to be sure you catch that egg!!

Atomic replied to me in a PM saying that to sway girl, you need to be releasing everyday for up to a week, so four or 5 days in a row is fine. And I know that TTC5 who has a baby boy on the way mentioned she DTD right through her fertile period of +/-5 days (right TTC5?)
As a matter of interest, are you using pre-seed? meant to be great for swaying blue!

good luck!

[chitchat123]

Babyblessings thanks for the advice yes preseed purchased and used (thanks to advice on here) Previously was looking at using Bicarb of Soda however the drink gave me a headache and I decided not to douche - could not quite take the risk of burning down there infection etc!! :-)

Good advice on timing thanks.

It caught me by surpise the first OPK as it's been later the other cycles recently and then just jumbped forward again! Hard to plan everything to be perfect but all we can do is try our best!! I am sure as others have said BFN does mean you get more diet etc strength and I am sure it's best not to rush these things so will be holding out for you to get BFP soon, it's hard the more we think about all this baby business the more important / stressful it seems to be but I am now going to relax and hope for a BPF / BFN to give me more of a chance for perfection ;-) Good luck

Lots of blue baby dust to all :-)

[TTC5]

Glad that you are both looking ok Bec and TTC5 -- fingers crossed all stays that way

Well, as for me - I guess this month was not our month. After 2 BFN a few days ago, AF arrived today :'-(

Oh bugger :(

[TTC5]

Ahh ok, so at what stage will they decide on that?

Not sure they have to play it by ear as anything could happen iykwim?

[Cinss]

babyblessings sorry about AF, she is such a pain :(

chitchat you can have O pains before during or after O, just to make it harder to pinpoint ;)

PoP where are you girl? How was the movie the other day?

[chitchat123]

Thanks all for your advice and help. I have traces of blood this morning, c.60 hrs after OPK and c. 48 hrs after TTC - is that too early for implanation or maybe something not right / lost, certainly not usual mid cycle? Any advice appreciated. Will not get hopes up for BFP as quite happy to have another month to prepare etc but will be glad when can eat normally again ;-)

good luck all

That does sound a bit early for implantation to me, generally implantation happens 5 - 10 days after O. It could possibly have been an O bleed, i have read about that happening, and the timing would be spot on for that. Its nothing to worry about, good luck for a BFP :)

[TTC5]

Yes too early for implantation. Did you use baking soda?

[chitchat123]

TTC5 and Cinss thanks for your help, no I didn't used baking soda I was too afriad to ;-) I used preseed. Would you recommend baking soda?

[Cinss]

TTC5 and Cinss thanks for your help, no I didn't used baking soda I was too afriad to ;-) I used preseed. Would you recommend baking soda?

No you dont need to use baking soda, TTC5 was asking because that may have caused a bleed, it can irritate your cervix.

[TTC5]

Yep what Cinss said!

[Princess of Pink]

Well I got the higher job and have decided to give TTC a break for about 9-12 months. I'm not going to try this cycle cause it just doesn't feel right. I am going to spend my time getting healthy again, exercising, eating a boy friendly diet and taking sups so I am ready when the time comes to start TTC again. After so long on the HE diet I wanna take the time to get back to a healthy weight.....something tells me I need to do this even though I want a baby now. I won't be on as often but am not going anywhere! 2-3 months out from TTC I will buy the personalised plan and make sure I am on track. I need to make some life changes to get healthier so I have the best chance possible!!

[dloui128]

I'm so happy for you PoP, it sounds like a great opportunity and the get healthy plan sounds just as great. I'm gonna miss you around here

[Hobbermittens]

Congrats on the job, Pop! I like your idea of getting healthy and getting a personalized plan. Try to keep in touch--don't be a stranger!

[skrimpy]

Congrats on the job PoP! I think your plan sounds really sensible - I decided to do similar for myself and feel like I was in awesome shape and very healthy for this pg. I also feel like I had a good boy sway just via lifestyle and diet. I hope you enjoy the new position and its benefits, as well as a break from TTC stress.

[Cinss]

Pop, best of luck with the new job hun :) Sounds like you have a great plan ahead of you. You never know i may still be here in 9-12 months TTC (i hope not lol) but at least you can focus on your life and not have to worry about BFN after BFN.

[TTC5]

PoP you know what will happen now don't you? ........... ;)

[Plum3]

Congratulations on the new job PoP. I hope that the break does you the world of good. Your plan sounds great :) Good luck with it all!

[Plum3]

Cinss, you waiting til AF is due to test?

[Cinss]

Lola, I am just now seeing your post about mocing on. I'm very sad to see you step away. I hope that somehow things will work out for you and you end up with a big surprise. Please keep in touch and let us know how you are doing.

Thanks, NBP- I have found that I'm not so good at moving on, but I'm trying to only log on once a week or so. My emotions are so up and down about it all....I get optimistic that a miracle will happen around O time and then all is dashed when AF comes and I feel stupid for still trying and caring. Anyway, this site is awesome and I really can't take too long of a break, so I'll still be around here and there.

POP, congrats on your job!!! I think your plan sounds super solid!

Bec, I think you've got multiples in there, lady! When is your scan?

Cinss, good luck testing next week.....you've got to end up with a bfp soon.

Skrimpy, I can't believe you are around 10wks already....hope move and all is going well!

So, we bd'ed like CRAZY this cycle, as we always try to switch it up some. I'm feeling better later because I've got a month of vacation coming up and some traveling going on, which takes my mind off of ttc.

xoxo
