I just wanted to come in here and declare that I am feeling very stuffed from eating so much food today! I actually feel like banning food and starving myself for a day at least! lol rant over!
hope you girls are all fine and well :) good luck to those ttc x
Flava!! Last attempt (that didn't work) I had the same problem, but I DTD after the 4 day abstinance, then 48hrs later I got my +opk so we DTD then and the day following as well. Are you having EW already? If so, I say DTD. I wouldn't let your DH wait much longer!
I hear ya! I feel terribly guilty if I even start to feel hungry because I feel like I am doing something wrong!!Quote:

Lola, I did one more OPK and it was negative. I told myself no matter what the result of it was that I had to stop checking. If I hadn't of done another one I would have never have seen the positive OPK and wouldn't have stressed. Pretty sure I didn't O again though. We didn't end up DTD again, just wasn't in the mood and it didn't feel right. I so hope it doesn't take you a year to get your bubba. It sounds like you have really thought about it all and are comfortable with your decision, that's great.
TTC5 and Flava, can't believe after 4 kids you have never had a baby shower?!
Bumblebee, it's hard feeling so full isn't it? It will settle down though.
Flava, what's happening with your OPKs now?
I have had a pretty crappy week. We had to get our dog put down, she had kidney failure :( Then my dad ended up on hospital a few days ago with respiratory problems, he's fine now though. It's just been a bit emotional!
I have been having a few symptoms- sore back, cramps and crying at the simplest things. I hope they are all good signs!
Flava I agree, I would go now if you think you are close!!!
Bec - sorry about your dog :( And yay for the signs hey!!!!
I am 8dpo and have no signs I really think I'm out but poor DH is certain I am :(
5- It's more my dad's gf but yes, it's very nice of them. I really didn't want to do one but they insisted. I never had one w/dd1 because me grandma had open heart surgery. My sister threw one for dd2 but we pretty much had everything by then. W/dd3 we threw a bbq after she was born, it was more of a meet and greet kinda thing lol You're not out till the flood gates open!!
Hobber - don't feel guilty for getting hungry just grab a snack, I lived off raisons, cashews, string cheese and hard boiled eggs between meals, ooh and never doubt the joy of celery in peanut or cashew butter :)
Bec- my biggest issue was I was an obsessive calorie counter so even though I ate carbs, fat and protein at each meal the quantities were small. It was so hard eating without regard but it got easier and it definitely paid off.
Sorry for such a rough week but I'm glad your dad is ok. It's hard putting a pet down but I always choose to embrace that they are no longer sick or in pain so it was a good thing. Big hug to you.
Fava - if you've got ewcm go for it!
Well my sil (dh's brother's wife) rsvp'd to baby shower that she was bringing her mother. I politely informed her I'm not paying so I'm trying to keep it to close friends and family and her response was basically that since her dh wasn't coming she figured her mom would just fill his space. Really?! This isn't like we bought tix to a movie so any butt is better then wasting a seat. Sil won't do anything without her mom and omg her mom is a bitch. She's then said maybe just count on her and the kids and she'll see if she can ditch her mom, $20 says she brings her or doesn't come at all. Because I'm a bitch I hope she blows it off entirely :bigsmile:
LOL Jen, good on you for standing up and telling her!
No we are not doing it because I don't want to do it to early. I don't O on the first day of +opk I get 2or 3 days and O only on the last one or after.
3-5 days abst. is good so we wait and see if I get a smiley tomorrow we do it and hopefully a day or 2 after that.
Im out of CB monitor tests so now I can't see when i would have a peak window. just great...But Im not running out to spend 50$ on it now!
another crazy cycle...
Bec-Im sorry about your dog! XXX
Yeah so sorry about your doggie Bec, even though putting them to sleep is for their benefit it doesn't make it any easier!
Hey Ladies I have been stalking this site for a while, I was on IG but it is never accessible any more...I was TeeSharee on IG I have two little girls and am planning to sway this month if I can get my plan together in time if not December. Just wanted to ask if I could join your group I remmeber some of you from IG, Nice to know your still around!
Welcome 2pink!!!!!!
Welcome 2pinknoblue.
I am trying this month aswell, when are you due to O ?
5, my DH is totally convinced too. He just wants to go back on his whey protein!
3, it was very hard to see our dog go. She had been sick for a while with kidney failure and I am glad she is finally at peace. I really can't stand when people take it upon themselves to invite others to events. We had a wedding on the weekend and a woman there took her best friend along as her 'plus 1'. I don't know if it's just me, but I don't agree with that at all. I always classify 'plus 1' as a partner.
Flava, so hope you get your positive soon. What CD did you O last cycle?
Kris, thankyou :)
2Pink, welcome!
2pinkNoblue- welcome! Most of us here are IG defectors. I was jensgirls but have been here since Feb. I love your name, until Sept 23rd I was 3PinkNeedBlue so gl and blue dust to you!!
Bec- a couple years ago we had to put our dog down after 10yrs with her. I didn't mean to sound callous, even when it's in their best interest it still hurts so much so make that choice.
ITA, your guest is your partner or kids not any old person you want to grab! That said my mom's standing wedding date is my kids but these days all the weddings are for her friends kids and they invite all of us.
Why did you pull dh's whey protein?
Last 2 cycle I got a + on cd16 before that on cd13 and before cd14 .So I just wait maybe tomorrow...I got answer O test strips because it's a lot cheaper then the monitor test strips so now i use that. i like it actually. But very faint line on it...Quote:

Looks like I am out hey? My temps are dropping..
Hi 2pinkNoblue, its great to have other members ttc around the same time :)
Well that was a waste of time, money and emotion.
I saw a locom dr as my usual one is away sick, he made me feel like a complete IDIOT :(
Basically told me that nothing could be wrong because I have CLEARLY had children before. He said he wouldn't do any bloods either as I am only a week after ovulation (I am 9dpo today) and it wouldn't show yet, he doesn't do bloods until periods are late - WTF?!
I actually sat in my car and cried! :(
Just because you have had kids before doesn't mean that there isn't anything wrong now. What an idiot.
I've been to a Dr before that won't do bloods unless your period is a week late and you have been getting BFN urine tests.
I just wish he would do a BT for check my levels see what the go is with these + opks :(
Can you see someone else?
I can see my normal dr when she is back, she is away sick right now though.
What an idiot doctor, if you want your hormone levels checked then that should be the end of it. I just said i wanted to see how mine were going and got a referral right away. Depends on the doctor i guess, some are easy and some are jerks.Quote:

Thank You All!
Mummy--I think I will O around the 23rd, but here's the deal I have been know to go months without O at all so I am charting temp and using OPK starting today CD6...if I dont ovuate this month we may have to try clomid (which I hear sways Pink :( ) So I hope it happens naturally, both pegnancies with my girls were first cycle of BCP and First cycle off BFing...Where are you at in the process? what is your plan? Details please!
3pink-- it is So exciting that you had to change your name! that gives me and the other girls hope! I chose my name before I even saw yours tho, how funny! So r u going to be swaying again for another successful sway if so when? and do you hav eany advice for me I am trying to put together the details for a sway in time to try this month...
I just have to say it is so nice to get responses after being isolated on IG for so long!
cinss--When are you due to O? What is your sway plan? Supps? Ph? etc...
TTC5--I am sorry I get the same thing bc I dont always O but I have two kids (completely on accident) and so I get told "well we know you can make babies", Also there is nothing worse than a Dr who wont listen and forgets that we know our bodies better than they do, I am fuming for you!

3, oh I know you weren't being callous. Didn't mean to make you think that either. Apparently whey protein contains substances that may impair fertility. Have you heard differently? He would love, love to go back on it!
5, I don't think you're out at all. Your temps are still above the coverline. Sorry about the crappy doctor. Some people just have no idea at all. Will you go and see your regular doctor when she gets back?
I will unless I get AF or BFP.
How are you going Bec?
I have a cold and sinusitis at the moment. Might have to get some antibiotics soon. Blahhh. But other than, all good. Still having minor cramping and back ache on and off all day. Trying so hard not to get my hopes up. How about you?
I have bad blocked sinus and today soo much bright green gunk so I bought myself a nasal irrigation thing much like a netti pot. No symptoms, I don't think anyway? The things I do have, could easily be due to other things LOL so won't bother looking in to them!
Is the nasal irrigation working? I have nasal spray which I know is bad for a boy sway but it's the only thing that keeps me sane. I can't sleep otherwise. The pressure is terrible.
My right nasal cavity is fully blocked. I can get water up it and it comes out the other side, but if I try and put water in the left side, it won't come out the right side!! It all comes down my throat. I am going to give it a few good tries though, I have a diviated septum on the RHS so that makes it all so much worse :(
Sounds horrible :( I'll stop complaining now!
