And with May she's one of the youngest kids in her grade. I like my Nov (Nov 30th, Lola!) bday with the only downside being it is close to Christmas. But so far DD loves it b/c she feels like there is so much going on then, with her Dad's bday, and T'giving, then hers, then Christmas .... she thinks it is just the best time of year :-)
So TTC5 I might have missed it but did you finally get the +OPK? I need to start taking them again. Have been like clockwork for months and since we aren't TTC right now I quit taking them, but then this cycle is really short suddenly! Like 24 days and I am normally 27-28 like clockwork. So I think I'm going to monitor myself more closely again.
Welcome SpicyTuna! What a fun name :-)
I'm normally a total optimist but yesterday got me so bummed out and feeling like I'm going to have another girl. A friend who has a boy found out she's having a girl with her current pg and it just really made me feel like it's just all up to luck, since she didn't sway at all, and here she is having one of each. Meanwhile I have changed like, EVERYTHING I can about my diet and lifestyle and I feel like it doesn't really matter. I know I'll snap back out of it but today I'm feeling like we shouldn't even TTC again :-( But I know we will b/c boy or girl I do want a third child. I just really, really want it to be a boy! DH really doesn't care at all (he isn't swaying) and I wish I could be more like him.
