:rofl::rofl::rofl: "rampant bding" ... I mean, NINE?!?! I thought she was kidding!

Well I am officially in the 2WW! I feel like this is our month, but I also can't help but to think 50/50 on the boy/girl front. I was hoping I would feel better about a good sway. But to sum it up, we DTD on Sunday night (or Mon. am since it was 1:30 am :) and I was expecting to O on Tuesday evening. I didn't have any cramping Tuesday at all, which I normally get crampy and bloated on the night of my +OPKs. Of course, I didn't use OPK's this month, as things are getting so expensive after TTC for 6 months.

So we DTD last night, just incase I O'd late and we might hit O+12 that way. Then this morning, I woke up crampy and bloated for half of the day. If I O'd this morning, I was totally in boy territory, but praying that the sperm from Sunday night/Monday morning were waiting right there and may be a girl. But don't want to put the cart before the horse, I may not be PG at all!

So now, I sit and wait.....when to start testing...hmmm...

He knew how much I loved her, so he told me first. I was sitting up in my bed (it was 2:30am) and he said the hospital called and she had just died. I told him about my dream, and it actually made him happy in that moment when his mother had just died. He told me that she was stopping by to say goodbye to me, and that I was incredibly lucky to have that experience since we couldn't be there with her. So, that's my dream story!

Wow :HH: What an incredible story:) I love hearing stories like this:) It makes my heart happy:) xo Blessings to your Grandma:HH: She's most likely one of your guardians now :)

I always tell my newly pregnant friends to talk to me whenever they get terrified by stories they hear, because it CAN be a great experience.

DM I still can't believe you're here again ... FX you get the desired result!

It's so nice to hear that there are more and more women out there encouraging and empowering pregnant women they know:) Makes me very happy:) and thank-you B! What will be will be:)

I had some mild cramping around the time the boys were conceived but I felt those type of pains through out my womenly years so didn't think about them before....

Would this be implantation pains? ? How soon can you get a BFP after that?

Hmmm it could be:) Usually 2+ days after and you'll get a + if it really was implantation occurring. FX'd!!!!

I honestly have never had sex more than 3x in one day and that was when DH and I started dating.....First date actually...:rofl: OMG. I feel dirty just telling you guys that....HAHAHAHA!

Well, ladies - AF arrrived last night just as I was going to bed, so I'm officially out. Quick question, though - since af didn't arrive until 11pm or so, do I still count yesterday as CD1 or is today CD1? Two months ago this happened - AF arrived a day early and late at night, and I'm fairly sure I O'd on CD 14 as usual, even when counting that first day as CD1....

I'm sorry Mocha :(

I think the rule of thumb is any time af starts full force after 5pm you're supposed to count the next day as cd1. Although I can't imagine it making a huge difference?

7dpo for me with a huge temp dip today compared to my other temps the past few days. I'm a little disappointed by it but trying to think it could be an implantation dip. I also got a bfn this morning.

Mocha, I am sorry. ((HUGS)) I agree that you would count the following day as CD1. I hope you are feeling ok and keep your chin up, you WILL have another one!

4Blue, your chart looks like mine (I'm 7dpo also). I got a huge dip today as well. FX it's an I dip for us both!

Emmy, have fun on your trip!!!!

DM, LOL about the best first date EVER!!! You two were obviously meant to be!!! If it makes you feel any better, on our official first date, my DH and I drank a bunch of tequila shots, I threw up in his car, and then we had sex. LOL He still loved me. But I think my top day is about 4 times, and man, my lady parts felt like they had been scrubbed with sandpaper for days.

Hi Chunky, FX for ya girl!!!!

Glad you all liked my dream story. I think we've all had some sort of experience like that whether we know it or not. I do like to think she is my guardian and I still sort of "talk" to her. Zanacal, I am sorry to hear about your nanny!

DM - Hubby and I talked for days but we met one day for lunch... 4pm dtd, ate dinner, and so on 7x's! So I know what it is like to feel a little dirty!

Mocha - my fertility monitor says if AF comes anytime after 4pm it doesn't count as a day... the next day is normally heavy so that is CD1.
