Even some Gap and some Hanna stuff is wearing out before it's time.

I like to buy as much Gymboree brand as I can. I notice a huge difference in how long it wears. Most of the clothes have went threw all the girls (some is still too big for the youngest). I also don't dry their clothes (or my good clothes) all the way....just long enough to steam out the wrinkles and then line dry.

Princess: I am sooooo sorry for your loss. Like most of the women on here I have had 4 miscarriages, from 9-14 wks. My Ob said most of the time they just are not viable and would not make it in the outside world anyway. Losses are like lossing a piece of your heart every time, but try not to give up hope.

Lola: I have a cousin that got preg when her husband sperm mobility was 2%, they even had a IVF sceduled fir the next month. I do understand why you guys are guarding your hearts.

Wow, this thread really took a turn over the past couple weeks. I hope all the losses end well for all.

I know someone ask about the BSF....it burned bad for me too!!!! I never did it again.

I did, but I think it was just the tip that I dipped in the BS. I used just enough that it made a difference in my ph.

Ok so I am coming up to my first ovulation since coming off the pill and noticed I have gone from dry to a little wetish in just a few hours.. checked my pH and it was a 7!!!! I can not believe that, I have not done any bsf's nor did I have a bsb today either. I am STOKED! Have only been back on supps for around 3 weeks now but must be doing something right compared to earlier this year when I was struggling to stay in the 6's...

I don't know that we for sure would have had a 3rd had we had BG already, I probably would have still wanted one more but DH maybe not ... I think the big hope for him was for a boy this time around, but I'm still happy to have her ... whoever she turns out to be :) And I know he will be too. I said it on another thread but one of my best friends lost her 4th child, a 4 year old boy, earlier this year, and I'll be darned if I'm going to spend any more time grieving a son I never even had. At this point in my life I have the perspective to know how very blessed I am.

And as for DH, I figure he's a pretty lucky man to have 4 women who will think the world of him :)

Really, the thing that bugs me most is like I said, all the comments about what a surprise ... another girl ... blah blah blah. My best friends will be amazing but there are so many people who don't mean to be insensitive, but the comments will sting nonetheless, and I know there are lots of you who know exactly what I mean. That's what I am not looking forward to. But I'll deal with it.

Good luck to everyone else! I hope there are lots of blue announcements and bfps soon! I probably will move more to posting to the pg threads (and the TTC girl threads ... I clearly have lots of pink dust, LOL) since I don't think I have as much to offer on the sway advice these days :wink: But I'll definitely pop in to check on my peeps! :kiss:

You have a great attitude about it! Another girl is a blessing and as you said before 3 sisters is awesome! Girls tend to be more family orientated, they keep ties with the family even after they're married. I have 4 sisters and 4 brothers.....I don't see any of my brothers. Glad your bub is doing well too!!

I did that too, then tried a little with some preseed and it was all good.
