Im travelling back to my Hometwon in Uk and dont want to look like a beached whale lol my sisters will never stop teasing me lol.

when will you be going for your first attempt this month?

I thought I had a positive opk yesteday afternoon so we had an attempt at 4 pm. Then today it was truly positive so we dtd agan around 7 am. I wish I would have waited but I was paranoid about missing it. Plus, this weekend is crazy so we were rushed and didn't do the things I had hoped to. Dh didn't drink caffeine and I didn't o because DD was being so loud in her high chair in the other room haha not romantic at all. Oh well, we'll see...We will one more time tonight.

Y'all- the weight stuff.... Sucks. I'm so gross. I need to fully commit to pausing attempts for a few months to work on my current large and in chargeness. But, at the same time I kind of want to try again immediately. The last year has been such a roller coaster, I've gained about 35 lbs. :(.

My mil's intestines ruptured 1 year ago next week, and she was in ICU for about 2 months. We ate nothing but restaurants and fast food going back and forth to the hospital (about an hour away.) while she was in the hospital, my godmother was diagnosed with lung cancer and had surgery on my birthday (3/23.) one week after that, my appendix ruptured. The next month, we found out I was pregnant. 4 months later, we found out the baby had died. After 3 months we tried again and got pregnant. A month ago we found out it was a blighted ovum. (FYI- my mil and godmother are both doing ok now.)

I've been so preoccupied I've let my weight get gross. And I'm super discouraged. I either need or get skinny or pregnant, and those do not go together in my quest for a boy. :(

They can! You can eat HE and do it "clean" while exercising and lose weight slowly cause thats what I am doing as per atomics instructions. Small meals 7-8 times a day, balanced Protein/carbs at every meal, no junk at all but fresh healthy food, working out for no more than 45mins x6 times a week cardio and weights, you will lose heaps of fat and tone up gaining muscle which sways boy even more. I am losing about 1kg every 2-3 weeks but getting very toned so it's probably actually more fat loss than that, but I am gaining muscle. Clothes are heaps loser and I feel strong and firm (except my belly which is beyond repair after 5 babies lol).

Are we suppose to take EPO AF-O? EPO kinda helped my EWCM too but I thought it dried me up it wasn't EPO.. I just wasn't drinking enough water

Yep POm, Pops right you can slowly lose the weight by watching what we eat, and doing exercise. Lol I think I'm going to be naughty and have a Wendy's! It's been a while eating junk! Surely we can treat ourself can't we???

Yep EPO AF-O then stop until AF starts again.

Pop you are without doubt gonna land a little bluey with that schedule!!! How many dpo are you atm???

Thanks!! I've never gotten pregnant on the first attempt before but who knows. I also have lost a pound since I modified my HE diet. I eat often but it's all healthy food. Tons of veggies and some fruits. Protein with every meal and I've been working out 6 days a week. Tracking my calories has helped me.

Does anyone think O+12 is valid? I wanted to do one more attempt but was scared I might have O'd today but I'm really not sure. I've had some cramping but I don't know if that means I O'd or about to O. Should I just leave it at this morning's attempt?

Goodluck Kiki :bluecheer: Dont worry about O+12, it is unlikely that you would fall pregnant with that timing and you really want lots of sperm in there for your boy sway, go for it again!
