I am so sick of the diet too. I just want to eat something without worrying if there is protein and carbs in it. DH is convinced he did a good enough job first time round and is sure we are pregnant. Me, not so convinced.
LOL so is my DH, think they like to think of themselves as some kind of a "stud" LOL
I'm not getting my hopes up! Have had some on and off all day twinges but trying sooo hard not to read too much in to it lol (ok so yes, I have been googling lol).
Haha, yep DH thinks his aim was spot on. Men!
I am so tempted to look at my charts when I conceived with my girls and see what symptoms I had then.
Yeah, I really screwed up. I just felt pg right after I O'ed, so I did keep up the diet for a couple days, but then it was Halloween, and I ate candy and all kinds of other crap... I just thought, 'why do the diet still? I know I am pg', and I didn't keep DH on his supps, and now I regret it! I hope I didn't keep the baby from implanting by being so slack. My only thought is, I never did this diet before and had 3 perfect pregnancies, so obviously it is not a must for me. And I definitely kept up my calorie intake, but a lot of that was sugary food, so I bet my blood sugar was off.... oh well. I will be better next time!!
hobber don't worry! And all of us like this when you had a try we think we are pregnant for sure or we think no way we got pregnant. I also eat some candy after halloween so what? I do not think a little sweet kill our sway.
Im scared of december lol because almost the only time i bake is around christmas and there is pies and gingerbread , cookies ,and other pastries I make and I want to eat it lol So I need a bfp now !
Hobber- yeah I didn't really want to hope it didn't matter when it came to my sway. I didn't wait till everything was perfect ie moon, pH etc just the stuff I could control. Fwiw dd3 was due 8/11 and she's e sweetest little bunny in my herd :)
B- I'm sure your gd will linger for a bit after delivery, mine did w/dd3, but having a sweet little critter to cuddle really does help.
Oh believe me I can't wait for my old ass to be back and my stamina, I've already got next summers race schedule all figured out lol.
Ttc5- holy crap girl, wth? Fx everything straightens out soon.
Bec- I do believe she did say that and fwiw I never layed of the diet, I skipped bread in the 2ww but that was it. Make the diet simpler, I ate meat with veg or meat with fruit. The more stressful you make it the harder it'll be to stay with it.
It's official ladies, third trimester for me!!
It ain't skinny yet! LOL, but working on it. It sometimes freaks me out to think of how long I did that diet and if I were still doing it, what I may look like!!!! I honestly feel like my body just went through a pregnancy and is now losing it afterwards....except no baby, grrrrrr!
3P1B! 3rd trimester already? Wow, baby Charlie will be here so soon!
TTC5, what did the dr. say?
Flava, I worry about all that xmas baking too, but oh well... my DS was conceived in Dec., so I think it is a good month for me. I hope anyway!!
Lola, I think I am in the minority far as the porn is concerned. Most women don't seem to want their DH to look at it. I'm sorry you had a bad experience with it. :(
See, I am the man in our relationship, LOL....even though I don't watch porn, I am the horny one. This is why I think my DH has low T. But maybe he does sneak it in. The ex with the porn addiction said it's just a visual thing, all guys do it, blah blah.....BUT he always begged me to dye my hair blond and grow it really long and go to a tanning bed and wear this and that in the sack, it got weird. It was like the only thing that turned him on at one point so he could never just be with me, or any girl afterwards, apparently, like a normal person. But once, just to see what he'd do, I subscribed to a, um, ladies' site and left it up online and he FREAKED out and said how could I look at other naked guys. It was awesome. What a douche. That is why I am leery of guys and porn, I guess, but I do know that many use it wisely, LOL.
And seriously, please don't be jealous of me. I still look like a cow, but losing this weight is the only thing I can do now. If I could get pg easily, I would be on the diet still. Or hell, probably have a baby by now.
Don't worry about the psychics, but I hear you about wanting to skip a cycle with the diet. I don't think a little laxness in the 2ww would kill your sway, but I agree with 3p1b, you might as well have a good confident month.
Begonia, you take all the time in the world, lady. I am glad to see you still around. We can never quit GD, it is funny.
YAY for 3rd tri, 3p1b!!! May it be a non-painful and joyous one for you!
So, last night, my youngest says, "Mommy, when are you going to have a baby? I thought you wanted to have one? How many miscarriages did you have? Was it 2? Didn't you have one before G was born (big sis)? I just want you to have one soon." Just ALL sorts of questions. I guess it is good and bad to let your kids in on this stuff. I'd just hate for her to repeat it to anyone. I am usually doing ok these days, especially with feeling better about my figure, but it still hits me hard. I've done my homework on IVF now and am putting it on the backburner for a while. I'd hate to go to ridiculous lengths and expense to have a baby when we could have had a free one if we would have just waited a bit longer.
Meh. At least I get to hear Nutcracker music all day, which is making me happy. Plus, I am finding a new outlet for my ridiculous need to gather information incessantly, which is vegetarianism. And buying Christmas presents early, which makes me feel rather on top of things.
You might be....I only have a few friends that don't care either, and I have many who think it is a visual form of cheating, in a way. I think it is rather liberated of you, Hobbs! And ya know, you gotta do some things, make some concessions, in marriage sometimes. If you've got a horndog for a husband, better he's in the bathroom with porn than knocking on your door 3x a day or worse, at a hotel with a hooker or something!!!
Crashing... :)
Just wanted to say that we are pretty open with all that kind of stuff as well. I used to work as an assistant manager in an adult store(did all the toy orders, prescreened movies etc, was on floor helping people find the right toys etc...boy have I got some good stories! LOL)and I'm pretty laid back when it comes to porn. My hubby and I have no issues with each other looking at it(we're not sex addicts or anything;))and I know that in our relationship it causes zero problems. I do know of many couples where it hurt the relationship though:( Being open is so open important when it comes to that kind of thing.
Lola - ok maybe not skinny but at least on the way down. I too am hoping for a pretty good third trimester :)
It's rough when kids ask those kinds of questions especially since the truth is so unsatisfying for them. Not long after we told the kids dd2 asked if we were going to lose this baby too. It ripped out my heart to have to tell her I honestly didn't know but was doing everything I could to keep it safe. These are the days I wish we weren't so honest with them.
Hobber & doula - I know I'm in the minority amongst my real life friends. My sil and bil's gf both freak if they even suspect their men have had a peek. I think it's got a lot to do with his honesty, usage and time spent together lol We've got 17 years, he doesn't lie about it and knows I don't care if he looks at it as long as he's not off with it instead of being with me.
Oh the little precious hey!!!! I have told my girls well bigger two anyway that I have lost babies in the past. DD2 always asks about her twin. I didn't tell you ladies that I saw John Edward last month hey? He picked up that we want more kids but stopped there (I think cos it was a live show and my Mum was next to me, so prob knew to protect my privacy lol) but he said there was a twin around me ..... made DH and I cry!
Lola: My older children know about our losses, but normally don't bring them up. Maybe your DD notices your weight change and thinks your not TTCing anymore. I have a friend who's DH has hardly any sperm and they did IVF and only got 20 sperm and only 10 were usable....they got PG their first try. I am so happy for them. She did say the IVF is like buying a car, but so much more worth it. I do understand about debt, though....we try avoid it at all cost, too. You are sooo lucky to enjoy the Nutcracker all the time!!!
3p1b: I know, only one of my children know we are expecting....they would all be asking if the baby would be a "take home" one if I told them.
Well, the sinus yuck is gone now, but now I am coughing and it is all in my chest. Yuck....I just want to feel normal!!!
I had the most funniest and strangest dream ever last night (think it is from chatting to all you ladies too much )
Dreamt that I moved to America and went to a beach. It was so strange, it was HUGE with lots of clear, crashing, frothy white waves and water and was like a beach/pool in one! Anyway so there were these huge gorillas EVERYWHERE like the ones from the Cadbury add if anyone has seen that add? (I will try and find it on You Tube lol) they were allll over the beach hahahaha the weather so was lovely and sunny and hot and I just loved it, LOL.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TnzFRV1LwIo << that is the add!
Ive only had weird dreams since being pregnant especially in the first 3 weeks.
Hope you get a bfp.
After doing some reading last night, I am now wondering.
You know how HE = times are good = boys.
LE = times are not so good = girls.
Just wondering how does that work ? so we trick our bodies into believing times are good but how does that allow us to conceive a boy?
I can count my dollars I am not UTD I just can't believe I would be so lucky first go... plus I have woken today with a damn pimple and yesterday and a little today having some funny cramping which I probably get every month but just never look out for them. Feels like I am being poked from inside with a blunt object on the RHS sort of near the ovary? Probably an early AF for me :(
LOL maybe I am need to let the sex goddess within, OUT lol cos this is what dreaming of Gorillas is meant to mean hahahahaah
the gorilla symbolizes your primitive impulses, wild nature and repressed sexual energy.
I think it means that girls are more hardier than boys, and so if our bodies are less nourished we tend to favour more girls? Doesn't count for everyone though because I know lots of boys born to mothers who are on drugs, alcohol, little nutrition, illness..
Lbam you've confused me what does HE & LE stand for?
Ttc5 you never know i was getting those crampy feelings & a pimple i was sooo expecting my period to come so i was very i mean very surprised i actually conceived. Fx for you.
Oh right, did it feel like how I explained it? I will be honest and have thought mmm ok wonder if it is something burrowing away in there but it is not central and is closer to the RHS (same side I ovulated from) it comes for a few seconds and stops and starts again kind of all over the shop throughout the day, random. Not aching as such.
Did it start around 5/6dpo?
Oh and HE stand for High Everything and LE stands for LOW Everything (food wise).
Oh thanks ttc5
Well i dont believe that either cause my sister has two boys & both her & her partner are big marajuana (not sure if i spelt it right) smokers.
Thats what I was thinking but I just can't think why it would work, our egg can't determine which sperm fertilises it. Or does it go more on the male, does he produce more sperm when times are good?Quote:

Sorry I guess I am just questioning everything at the moment.
How / why certain things work and don't work.
With every idea we all know someone who done that but has opposite gender.
Swaying has to work to some degree, but maybe it's just pure coincidence that people have had 2,3,4 of the same gender and then they "sway" and get the gender they want. But we also have people who do sway and still get the gender they have been having so maybe it all just pure luck and coincidence and chance.
Maybe it is a 50/50 chance each time no matter what you do?
There has to be a reason though why some people only have the same gender and some have GBGBGB or is purely just 50/50 chance and luck.
