Littlemiss were you on Clomid at all?
I was talking to my DH on my way to work telling him that I hoped to get my progesterone blood work back today and he said, "I hate this time" meaning he hates the TWW as well. I think it's going to be hard on him too if we get a BFN. It was sad. He tried so hard this time. I have already left a message for the nurse to get my results and I am hoping she calls me soon cause I am on pins and needles!!!!
yes i was on clomid but it was a very late O day,
he is yes im just gobsmacked i cant believe it,
i dont know if im happy or not, nothing went to plan im so peeeeed off it happened like this as i wanted to give it my best shot !!
Congratulations Littlemiss! Just think you definately would have the low testosterone on your side and a bunch of other factors! Plus I was reading successful sways last night and most of the. Accidentally had the big o and I kinda want to!;) I mean not being able to dtd with dh has been torture! I wouldn't normally care but bring told not to because of abstinence?!? Wow, I guess I don't like being told what to do lol!!
I'm in with all the ladies waiting for th opk this week! I feel like I am about to give it all up. I have slipped on the pills, just getting sloppy and right when it's getting to the most important time?!? I am hoping this is because my testosterone is low and I am thinking eh, whatever!! Remember this is a good time to chill out and relax!!
Btw I would have been against december baby but seeing I am being selective on sex I shouldn't be greedy;)
My sister and I are bot December babies! 21 and 27..yes no christmas wrapping paper and joint gifts with Christmas!! It's a pretty special time though!
Littlemiss~ CONGRATS WOMAN!!!! thats awesome, and honestly sooooo often I hear of women who got a surprise BFP and ends up its a girl, because they were relaxed. Pretty much what happened to me. Timing does not sway, you were on clomid, and doing the DIET-most important. NO WORRIES. Great SWAY!!! :cheer:
Amari~ How awesome we are the exact CD!!! YAY YAY YAY!!
Lala~ I think you may be confusing CM with the rephresh! I don;t think its increased CM production from rephresh. If you test from the cervix the rephresh is up in there and mixes with the CM.
Lassie~ I am thinking if I conceive I can schedule for 12/12/12, I will have a C-section so it can be planned....
NKS~ I wouldn't worry about soduim, honestly do not think it sways. I think what sways is losing weight which makes your body acedic and makes your body think you can only support a female that requires less calories from conception throughout life.......
PFP~ don't be down, we are in the BEST time of year for getting our much desired baby girls, I can just feel it. It makes soooooooo much sense. Our internal clocks def sense the days are getting longer, spring is just about here, conception now means baby born in dead of winter, and who can survive in the winter? :XX:
LETS GO MARCH :cheerteam:
Congrats, LMN - what a shocker!!! It seems to me that 'oops' babies almost always end up being girls - I hope that happens for you :luck:!
Little miss! Congrats!!! So happy for you!!!!!:cheerteam: Go get something yummy to eat and tell us all about it!!
Hope-Yay! Cycle buddy! I just took my first clomid today!! :cheer:
Hope&Dream you are great! You always say something that makes me smile.
Well...I had tons of wet, slippery, clear & very stretchy cm at noon today when I got outta the shower. So much. Not sure how much zyrtec works on me, can't imagine if I wasn't taking it.
So...tonight is the night! We are making our attempts tonight! I know myself, I usually get all this ewcm the day of or day before my +opk. I am taking an opk at 4pm and am sure it will read something. Even if it is not totally positive we are still gonna dtd tonight -- 3 attempts in 4-5 hours.
Then tomorrow, maybe. Undecided still. We will see how my temps and the opk's go. If they are + today then no attempts tomorrow, if they are positive tomorrow then maybe we'll do one more tomorrow night. I will have dh release when he gets home from work and then we will dtd an hour later with his 2nd batch.
That's the plan! Hope and pray for a pink pink pregnancy!! Please please please let this be my lucky month!!
All our lucky month's!!
Congrats little miss!!! :D
shoot...I just thought of it.
Do you think I should use something before our attempt tonight? Maybe a tiny tiny bit of rephresh a few hours before?
I only say that because I am sue for the full application in the morning, meaning at our attempt tonight it will have been 2 1/2 days since I last used an application.
Fingertip rephresh? Maybe fingertip replens now??
Ahh, need opinions.
hi all thanks so much for your congrats, im hoping this is my girl with all my heart but im so unlucky lol, ive been cramping on my left today so had a bath to calm it down which it has, now im either 8dpo or 11dpo i had a dip in temp today surely i must be 8dpo right as 11 seems very late to me what are your thoughts ??
PFP i would only use a half app the morning of or the night before attempt thats what AS told me to do hun,
hi suregena hun how are u ?
Just a little bit prayforprincess. Really a Little little bit of rephresh. Don't want to see a bfn. And I think it's your internal ph that sways if it even does. Sperm is gone in 5 minutes. And rephresh is not past the cervix. You've decreased sperm count enough with the abstain and then the releases before extra attempts. It's BFP time.
KD hun did you get your results ?
Amari- when do u O? I should be on cd15.
coocoo why would you not because of abstinance ?
Thanks littlemiss but I cannot use half -- our attempt is tonight...in only 4 1/2 hours!
You are right Hope&dream, its bfp time!! You are sooo motivating! We don't know if ph even sways, and no matter what my ph is in my vg if its not low up there then nothing I use will help me. I should just go for it and use nothing, no? Its not like I haven't been using the rephresh, I used it on Sunday morning. And with attempt #2 & 3 tonight I will use a drop of sylk.
Many people conceive girls without rephresh or replens or anything -- I need to tell myself that.
Yes. And I am one of them. Was losing weight and was relaxed. Didn't know what rephresh was! I only said tiny bit bc I didn't think you'd want to do none! Maybe don't use any and just use a tiny bit of sylk on dh it will get in your nooks and crannies.
Oh and good luck:HH::don't be tense or stressed ;)
Well I was thinking -- if we messed up our fr or he did not abstain long enough then I would touch up on the rephresh. But I did use a whole app. sunday morning and will use another tomorrow morning after our attempts when it is due. So I am using it every 3 days. Just not doing touch ups. Sylk with attempts.
Rephresh lowers sperm count, not gives you a girl. And I already have his sperm count lowered by 11 days abstaining and then dtd again 2 hours later. I don't need to lower it even more by killing it off with more rephresh than recommended.
Do you agree?
1/4 app of rephresh if we messed up lowering his count, but we didn't -- its perfect. So no need for a touch up of rephresh.
Tell me if u think i am crazy.
love that *nooks and crannies* hehehehe
PFP, the rephresh decision is totally your call. I didn't use it for my attempt because it was preventing ME from getting preg. It's a totally personal thing, but for that being said, I think you are doing a lot that is already lowering his sperm count and maybe rephresh is too much? Again, don't want to persuade you out of it, just some food for thought.
Congrats Little miss! WHat an awesome surprise :)
PFP- you are right on. Not crazy at all. You lowered already and don't need to anymore. I think you will just reduce chance of bfp.
Fantastic news LittleMiss!!!:cheer:You must be absolutely thrilled!! I hope your BFP rubs off on the rest of us!
PFP I wouldn't do a touch up on Rephresh either. As you said you used it 2 1/2 days ago n it should last 72 hours. Also, we have all been on this diet n lifestyle for so long now that I couldn't bare the thought of another whole month of this, n I'm sure you feel the same way! You are doing so many other things I would just try to get pg.
Still not sure whether to do just the one attempt or to follow PFP n try another attempt immediately after? I had a fade in on my FR opk this morning, so will test using my CB digital this arvo...not long to go now:nails:
no rephresh it is then! just a little sylk.
I will use the scheduled application of rephresh tomorrow morning. After our attempts tonight. We may do another attempt tomorrow night, depends. We will use his 2nd release.
Probably nothing will come out of it since I will use the rephresh in the am.
I checked my ph -- its in the 4's. So low enough that I don't need it right now. Opk's at 4pm were not positive, but test line was clearly there now. So they will be positive tomorrow, meaning I will probably o on Thursday. That is why we will probably add that attempt tomorrow night too.
So I'll have a 2 day cut off roughly, give or take a few hours. Most ideal time for conception!!!
How wonderful LMN7!!! Congratulations on your BFP! So that is why your temps had not gone down. Your body had other ideas. Enjoy some real food. And you obviously have a tough little bean in there to stick around despite the parsley tea...it must be a girl!
I could not open the link for your FF chart. I think you to go to sharing, and then get code, and then you want to copy your BB code. I have never been able to get anything to work on mine, it only ever says Invalid File when I try, but I know a lot of the others can do it.
P4P, I love your plan! It sounds just right. GL.
thanks PP il try and do that
I have an advice question, I wasn't working out at all since swaying, then I started doing the elliptical for 60 min for about 2 weeks, then I got sick and didn't do it for a week. I am on cd5 and just started clomid today. I can't decide if I should start it up again until my attempt or just leave it out. The factors I am considering are I am trying to neither gain or lose weight right now, the only problem is that I am really really hungry, so it is hard to not eat extra calories. It is so ridiculous to not gain weight as I am small, but I don't want to gain anything right before O. Anyways, any thoughts? Thanks for your input!
Amari, I would not exercise, simply because it will increase your metabolism so you will likely lose more weight and definitely be hungrier!
KD, so frustrating that you are still waiting on your results.
I had bloods done yesterday and then my naturopath mentioned a couple of things that would have been good to include in the tests. I phoned the doctor back and asked the receptionist to pass on my request to include iron and vitamin D, so I have a base level. She was really rude and said I would need to make an appointment. I explained the doctor just needed to phone the lab who already had my blood and request that they be added on. This morning I found it it didn't happen. She said the doc said I would need another appt. I said I had already phoned the lab and they said the doc just needed to phone them and they could do it. Friggin annoying. Like I really want to wait another 2 weeks for an appt (I am away next week) and pay more money to have something done that is unnecessary. I'll be going somewhere else if they stuff up my simple request. So hard to find a good doctor in Darwin.
thanks, peony,
that sucks about your bloodwork, they always seem to make things so difficult!
Amari i wouldnt exercise either at this point, it will probably make you even more hungry as well!And i have also been sooo hungry lately not sure why it could be the clomid hormones,ive been eating apples ,strawberries,and i have rice cakes but seriously dont recommend them they are horrible and raise blood sugar,but for me they help get me through:)Hopefully someone has better tips ,im also wondering this?
