Am i the only one who has stomach upset with COT? How does it affect you all?
I mix mine with the bsd and the first couple of times, I did have a bit of an upset stomach. It got better though. I'm done with it until AF arrives--I don't think my body would like too much of it!Quote:

Aww thankyou so much! This has made my day =)Quote:

I know it's hard not to worry, because I worry about all things around, swaying alone its very hard and very stressful ((HUGS))Quote:

And don't get frustrated if it takes you a while to get pg....take it from me, a long timer.....it can take women who are not swaying and just ttc the truly natural way months to get pg anyway.Quote:

I have had months of being totally exasperated with it all. Just take a deep breath and do what you need to do to get through each day. And I do hope you at least had a somewhat good birthday! We are here for you girl, feel free to vent away.Quote:

You sound way too stressed, and I know you can't kick your mom out because she is going through such a hard time, so maybe you and DH could brainstorm about ways that you can simplify and get them all taken care of and OUT of your house so you can breathe again. Heck, if for nothing else, just say you feel it's affecting your girls to have such commotion in your home, kwim? I think I can speak for us all and say we are worried about ya!!! And again, I know that may be undoable, but just consider some options because you shouldn't be crying and not eating all day, girl. XOXO
LOL! I think that's normal to feel that way. When my DH was estranged for a while my SIL would refer to her DH as "my husband" all the time w/ me in conversation and it felt like it was on purpose. It wasn't but just say your DH's name, why call him "my husband in a normal conversation.Quote:

If you are doing to BSD or BSF and EW, do you use those both times then. I'm assuming yes. Is overall the best kinda timing. Not the BD 12 hrs after 1st OPK or I've also read night on 2nd + opkQuote:

Bummed I slacked on the diet but it is what it is. Sure am hoping for a BFP this month. AF just stopped 2 days early but expect a normal cycle for O.
BFP's in May!!!!
Ooooh, thank you, I have it calendered and will try this. I didn't like Only trying once. I know timing is least important but I like this.Quote:

TTC5, do you think we could move these Cheer Squad threads to a private forum going forward. I'd hate for some of this to be posted for all time on a public thread.
Good point....maybe we can just talk about the private stuff on the Baby Blue Club forum?Quote:

Sometimes hit me harder than others, but we just have to keep on going. My other kids have been a great blessing and a lesson that life has to keep going.Quote:

I'm still totally gonna whine about it every time I get a BFN though. :)
ILuv, feel free to whine away, that's what we are here for, and I definitely do my fair share of whining (which I try to make up for by being positive after that!). I think at our age, which by no means is OLD, but, you know....we should just be thankful that we can get pg within a year!
LOL! it was hot here for a couple days and I had to put on maternity shorts. So Sad! I was going to hit up Target too for a couple of shorts. I tried on my Fat shorts when I was concealing my pregnancy with DS2 and they were too small. My fat shorts don't even fit. It's too hard not to laugh.Quote:

When you have a newborn in your arms it's like you think people go "oh, she just had a baby, it's ok for her to be heavy." and I didn't have a newborn.
Oh well, just part of the process. I need to go buy some shorts though. Good point about the 1st trimester. Glass half full, right. :)
LOL! True dat!Quote:
