TTC Girl - January 2012

We totally need a spreadsheet on who O’d when and who’ll be testing when b/c I can’t keep track! I’m so excited for our 2ww’ers and there will be so much testing going on very soon for a big group of you all! The next few wks will be very exciting!

Do you have white little bumps on them? I forgot what they're called but they come out when you're preg and they make me itch...

Katie, big boobs sounds promising!

Suregena, sending you O VIBES!!! Temping is waaaaay easier than I thought it would be and I highly recommend it. I thought I’d just try it for a month and to see what happens and it turns out that even waking up at different times still gave me a clear picture of my cycle and I was easily able to pin-point O that first time temping. Hopefully, you’ll never have to temp b/c you’ll be getting your BFP in about 2 wks(ish)…:cheer:

Amari, do you think you O'd on the 16th or 17th? YAY!

Rainbow, will you O in the next 5 days or so?

DH takes cal-mags everyday as he’s done forever…I was going to have him stop but didn’t. I am just letting him do his thing and concentrating more on what I’m taking. FWIW, he is taking Liq Root 2x a day along w/cranberry. I’ve asked him to lower his meat intake at work and to avoid all red meat. I don’t cook meat at all for him at home.

KD, it’s still a bit early. Don’t give up hope yet! I’m hoping your BFP will sneak up on you and you won’t have to go the Clomid route!

I know! I lose track of where everyone is too!

I could OV any time within the next 6 days. My OPK is just starting to fade in now, but had a temp drop this morning that I normally get a couple of days before OV so it will hopefully be Monday!

only issue is that I have my mum and 2 sisters coming to stay today and they're staying until Monday... so it means food-wise it won't be so good this weekend and it might be fun having to BD while they're here if I get my peak on Sunday!

OotB where are you in your cycle now?

Rainbow, it's always a bit challenging w/house guests around! Do the best that you can! It's the 2ww which is the most crucial (at least for the health of the bub) but I know you've been working so hard towards swaying for your girl. :HH: I :pray: you get her soon.

I'm not sure where I am. I suspect I actually O'd on Wed. FF tried to give me crosshairs today meaning that I O'd on Tues but I'm thinking it didn't happen then. I usually get a bit down/emotional the day of O so I'm thinking it was Wednesday. I am just thankful that O probably happened, BFP or not.

I wish I had temped, myself. :/ I've been able to listen to my body spot on before, and could tell when ovulation as soon just by paying attention. I think I completely underestimated how herbs and diet would affect me. I have had two negative OPKs but my cervix is STILL high... so... fingers crossed. :(

It's my son's 2nd birthday on Sunday and it will be painful to not indulge in homemade cinnamon rolls, cookies, cake, homemade pizza, etc. I made a test batch of the cookies and can barely resist them. Still within my limits, but I had two last night and two today. Give me strength to resist a third. :(

I was going to say for February's thread we should have a list like a roll call! But hopefully all of you in the two week wait will have your BFP's so we won't need to!

I have Dh taking Cal/Mag. I looked into this and if Mag/Cal actually sways I have it covered by having DH on it. I don't take it because I don't want the extra nutrients. He also takes cranberry and licorice root.

Another BFN (using an FRER) last night on 10 dpo, after holding pee for 4 hours. I think I am out. Of course, this morning I get up and my temps keep going up. This is so frustrating. I forgot how frustrating TTC is!! KraizyDaizy, looks like you are in the same boat as me and I'm sorry!
