Thanks MFC, fx for your attempt next month.
Awe Skrimpy she's gorgeous, love those cheeks!
Lola- nope darlin' not today Friday :)
B- I'm excited but also scared sh*tless. DH is in Texas on business till Friday morning but he's super excited, finding out is by his insistence after all.
Iluv- so the scan went well?!
Omg ladies 20 wks tomorrow and u/s Friday, I may explode!
Sorry for not updating last night. The U/S went well and the baby looks good which I'm elated about.
As for the nub shot, the tech was great about it and really tried, but if you can believe it, the baby had the legs crossed with the umbilical cord in between the legs. Apparently God said no way to a nub shot this time.
November 1st seems like a life time away for my next U/S. At 1st I thought maybe she couldn't tell cuz she didn't see anything, like, it was most likely a girl since no pee pee but it was cuz the legs and cord so I felt much better. The bpm was also 163 so I kinda freaked out that it was fast but I know darn well that OWT is crap and my prego sister w/ a boy had a fast 1 too so I feel better. I know for sure I'll freak out if it's a girl for a day or two but I think I'll be OK. It was great seeing the baby move around with life. Very excited!
My due date is changed back to the 26th like I thought it was so I feel good about that too.
3pink-only 2 more days!!!! I think we need new tummy pics here! And finally we can see that boy! omg I really going to scream here if it's a boy I just can't forget what purple told you! What time is it? I don't want to wake up DD if she is sleeping LOL
iluv-that is great news! sorry we can't stalk on the nub but the baby is all healthy ! You don't have any cute pics?
Girls are supposed to be high and around your middle (wider) and boys are low and straighter out. I'm carrying like my boys now but I also have the same fat tummy from before that I have't had during my other pregnancies so I'll have to wait it out. I still could never keep wearing my regular jeans you little brat! :)Quote:

We don't get videos either. got some cute pics but will have to figure out how the upload them to you guys. I will need a scanner to scan them all inn. Maybe my MIL can help me on Thurs.
I have to go try to take a cat nap again if I can. I just can't stay up so tired.:mad:
This is going on every day now I think i have to drink a coffee tomorrow I can't just lay down every day when DD is sleeping .I have things to do!Plus I try to keep up the diet if we have 1 more try to make.
Im thinking the cold made me tired.
I guess I just think a lot can happen and things can change. Stopping forever is a hard pill to swallow. DH says this is it for us which is probably the right move but it will suck and if he gets a snip snip I'm going to be a mess. I cried when I got my IUD put in but it fell out so that worked. :) I forget, are you over 35 like me? I thought we were both done after DS1 but things changed. My SIL was done too and had 1 more. Of coarse her DH is snipped now so they are for sure.Quote:

Hey Iluv! Glad all looked well and I'm with you on discarding the OWT about hbs and carrying and such. I looked like a "watermelon smuggler" with both and got the annoying boy comments the whole time. And please do a belly shot soon!
3PNB, yep, I'm losing my mind, lol. FRIDAY, can't wait for FRIDAY!!!!!! I can't believe you are halfway there already!
Hobb, I've already stopped actually taking the Clomid this month (you only take 5 pills from CD3-7), but I think I'm going to just go natural from now on.
Another timing question now: I just got a big fat +opk....although it was darn near positive last night, it is way way darker than the control line today. I bet I will ovulate sometime tomorrow morning, maybe tonight, I don't know since I'm taking this estrogen....I have a feeling it's making me O differently, maybe sooner or stronger, I can't tell yet. I'm worried that if we dtd tomorrow night, I will have missed the egg.....what do you guys think, dtd tonight and tomorrow night and pool me with sperm, even if it's only a few million, lol, or wait till tomorrow night?
Skrimpy
Awwww! Honor is so cute. Is she big for 4 months or just the pic? So cute!
Hmmmmmm! Orrrrr?????? FX!Quote:

Lola: I got an almost positive opk today....I am sooooo hoping I O before we leave for camping. But, the past couple months I have Oed on CD17 and 18, so think it may be a little early. I also thought the chemical would push O back a couple more days from last month...??? Who knows...I only have 1 more opk left, so I guess I will use it tomorrow.
Begonia: I know you promised a belly pic....I want to see this "hidden" belly for my own eyes :)
Flava: You sure have hard a ruff month, I hope your whole family gets better.
Jen: I thought your u/s was on thur......man I am going to be gone camping by the time you post!!! I guess I can wait until Sunday night :(
Hobber: I conceived DD4 in October, so the seasons are not a sure thing. And DS1 in July. You dtd everyday when conceiving your sons? I think we may try that too, if I can figure out when I am going to O.
skrimpy: She is a beauty....and bald....just like my girls are at that age.
:wave: to anyone I missed.
I have to say that I started my green tea again yesterday and I have loads of CM, way more than the last time I tried it. Come on big O. I am going to miss you guys while on our trip, but I just love the mountains. And we are going apple picking on the way up there.....it is going to be great.
Lola, I'd DTD tonight and tomorrow night. How long will your abstinence be before tonight?
3PNB that's so sweet that DH is so thrilled! Friday can't come fast enough ... the wait was more bearable when it was still days and days away. But now?!!? It's like, 48 hours away, yikes!
Iluv I'm so glad you had a good scan! Can't believe the tech was so nice to try and look for you, that is unusual. So nice. My baby was impossible to see too. I probably shouldn't get my hopes up for a sneaky peek at my next scan. But I so badly want to know! I really don't think I'm going to be able to wait this out.
Jane FX for you!
Hobber that really is tricky ... just take it day by day and if things seem to be aligning well, go for it! If not next cycle is still great boy timing too.
Kris that is sweet that everyone is so excited for the little one! So cute about it snuggling in :)
Ok so I took a belly pic now I just need to figure out how to post it from my phone, because I can't get it on my laptop right now!
Flava... maybe your pg!! That's the first symptom I always get--TIRED! Do your boobs hurt? Is your tummy queasy??Quote:

I think it will all come down to a final choice at the U/S appt. for you. Who knows, DH might change his mind. Some tears on your part couldn't hurt either. J/K I wouldn't condone manipulation. :) That will be tough not to find out. I can't wait. If that is going to be your last u/s then all you have to do is pass 1 u/s and then you don't have a choice and it will be easier. If you expect to have several U/S's that would be tougher. I'm not a good influence though, I want everyone to always find out. :)Quote:

BTW - BRAT!
Iluv the thing is I don't want to convince DH to find out ... if I find out it'll just be me. He has ALWAYS wanted a surprise and I really want him to have it, so I'm going to protect that for sure. If I find out, I won't tell a soul IRL. I'll spill here though ;)
Man my pic came out gigantic. I'm no good at the image posting. I'll remove it tonight once everyone has had a good laugh. I carried like this with my girls too ... lately I think this is a girl. I will say my food cravings are weirder this time, LOL! I was REALLY wishing I could get jalepenos on my chick-fil-a today! And normally I don't mind spicy things, but never really seek them out. Can't get enough jalepenos this time ;)
Got one down, phew! Last thing everyone needs is a double post of my big ol' pregnant belly :rofl:Quote:

Flava- I'll have dd1 help me snap some pics tomorrow :) appt is at 1:50 mst on Friday, I'll be checking in from my phone to keep you guys in the loop. Yeah the cold is probably willing you out, take a nap it's good for you :)
Iluv and B- I didn't take hardly any pics till the very end with my first 2 so w/dd3 I took pics at 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 34, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40 & 41 wks. I'll be doing the same is time, love those belly pics. I always find it so amusing to see my body so stretched and round lol
Iluv- yeah I've got some extra fat making the carry a little odd too but dh and I fully agree this one is much lower, all the kicking is super low too.
We're done with this one to but no snip snip for us, I'm not into permanence if ykwim. It's another IUD for us, I love em :)
Oh I know all the guesses are for fun and yep were finding out Friday.
Lola- it's crazy but it seems to be happening so fast, it'll probably slow down after Friday lol Oh and I don't know if this helps but both my loss and this one were conceived from dtd the night of the +opk. I'd go tonight and tomorrow night, more swimmers the better right?
Wp- awe bummer but nope not till Friday afternoon. Will your cell work, I'll text you lol We love camping, have fun!!
B- I don's see pics, maybe I'll have to check on the laptop instead of sitting her on the iPad lol
Lola- if the opk is so dark I would do it tonight and tomorrow too!That way you have 3 bd this month !
Big ol belly! You look terrible B! I can't believe how big you are at only 16 weeks. Please note dripping sarcasm.Quote:

begonia-did you put on any weight before bfp? You look very good!I only looked like this with my first 3 baby .But i put on to much when ttc #4 on IG and I don't loose any weight when I BF even put some on (hate this) .After BF I lost some but not all and now started ttc again and put back on like 20 lbs so I already have a big tummy.:sad:
If no bfp for us for sure I go learn the LE diet here because I want my size 1 clothes back they are in a box now!:tissue:
ummm I don't know we had a cold going on here I think today is over. But I have a stuffy nose on the morning so maybe not yet. My boobs don't hurts. I just noticed yesterday that they are like bigger or so...fuller? Don't fit so good in the bra. But must be from all this fat I put on. I don't feel pregnant at all.Quote:

Anyway Im so going to be here!:bluecheer:
Could not take a nap but I was laying down a little. Now have to think of dinner.
Im always hungry...hate what this diet did to me.
Oh iluv-Im 37 in Nov. so not much time left anyway. maybe it's ok to stop for us.
Did you ever find out about the blood clots and everything your last cycle? Could it be related? Maybe by tonight you'll get a fade inQuote:

Good for you on the belly pics. that's 1 thing I forget to take enough of. We did get a family shot w/ me pregnant at the end w/ DS2. I will have to compare my belly shot at 18 weeks w/ DS2's and compare.Quote:

I'll be 36 on Oct. 26th. This damn ticking clock. It's just that much harder to stop when you aren't entirely making the decision and out of left field doesn't help either. I've been there twice w/ DH and it wan't fun. I have to get it into my head that this is it for us but it will be really really hard. Thinking about you and I hope you both come to a decision that works for both of you. Teenagers make me scared to hve more though. :)Quote:

i see my.gyno fri. so i havent any clue if this is related. im probabaly not going bd tonight since i.dont have.any.lines...i.was.getting them pretty good cd9 and 10 and we dtd cd11...i would.rather wait till next month rather then slip into girl territory. ps begonia your belly looks like mine now....not pregnant....you suck. xoxo
Dang B, that is me now as well, lol. You look great!!!!
WP, are you going to NC? We are huge NC mountain fans! Have a good trip, and FX you get a + before you go!!!
Tink, didn't you have a long weird cycle last month? Maybe the supps are messing with you.
I gotta run from work in a sec......I think I will do what you all suggest and bd tonight and tomorrow. I have the, um, urge right now, so I know it would be a good time. We bd'ed two nights ago, so it would only be 48 hour cutoff, but I am too afraid we'd miss the egg if we wait till tomorrow.
Anyway, will be back tomorrow with more commentary for everyone!
Hi girls sorry have not been around last few days have been with my sister she went to hospital again, fell in to a coma, and went to ICU.. she is out of critical care now. So..... off to catch up on you ladies!! xx
No way!!!!!!! How on earth did you manage to stay to SKINNY on the boy diet??!!!!Quote:
