Pink swayers' December thread

I know, auroara - it's a tough balance between wanting to sway so you have no regrets, and wanting to actually get pregnant. Last time I ended up dropping everything but the diet, Vitex and antihistamines and I got my BFP...but then I had my regrets that I hadn't swayed hard enough. I don't know what I'll do for my next attempt...

Now to continue the saga of Mochagirl's confusing body signals...I just went to the bathroom and there was no new blood on my pad. When I went to check my cervix, I found reddish-brown tinged EWCM. WTF?? My cervix is starting to soften a bit and is slightly open, whereas it's been firm and tightly closed since O happened (if it actually did happen). Maybe I didn't really O last week and now my body's gearing up to try again? I'm going to hold my pee for the next 4 hours so I can do an OPK to see what it says.

Mocha, I'm with Jen and still keeping the hope alive for this month. I'm pretty sure my cervix re-opened close to when AF was due on the month I got my BFP because it made me think I had been imagining all my symptoms!

Jen - I nearly wet myself reading your story! DS1 was looking at me and saying 'what?' because I was cracking up so much! I'm so sorry, that must have been so uncomfortable for you both!

Regarding the Rephresh, I wonder if the best approach is to use a whole applicator but only every 3 days. Perhaps that would be less irritating than using less but putting it up there every day. If you're only having 1 or 2 attempts you could try and time it so that you're not using it too close to your attempt/s if you're concerned about using it too much.

ROFL, so funny!
Sorry to be laughing so much at it....it's one of those cosmicly terrible but funny things!

Auroara, DH knew if he didn't finish, he'd be in trouble…:mad: At the moment, I was just like, hurry up and make your deposit, dude! I'm terrible, I know!

Lemon, I was wondering where you were! I'm so sorry you’re out this time! :sad: I agree w/Mocha…I’d go easy on the RepHresh. Are you doing J&D? I can’t remember. If so, you may want to wait a few min before you dump.

Mocha, :fx: for you...So sorry this cycle is so darn confusing!

ootb, I am sorry for the intrusion at the key moment by your son, but it really is very funny! I am sure he will forget in no time and you can make up a story about it! - I have a friend who caught his parents at it and he was 19 - think he was far more traumatised!!

Mocha, I am sorry your body is still being confusing.... See how it goes over the weekend, then make your decision. At least it would hopefully put your mind at rest that all is well and you can TTC to your heart's content!

Auroara, sorry for the BFN, you are not out yet but hugs anyway. xx

Lemon, also sorry for the BFN. It is so hard knowing what to drop for the best, I really do understand. I have dropped the rephresh and didn't really like it! Made my CM all lumpy IYKWIM??

This month DH released 5 times in 3 days and release 2, 4 and 5 were in me. I had a +OPK on days 2 and 3, so FX I have done enough this month. I continued to take Vitex AF to O but stoppe the SP as I ran out!

GL for your next attempt will keep me FX for you. xx

haha, sorry jen but that is funny.
i have had kids walk in on us, but not at the end like that.....so its easier to cover up what your doing, and usually they are still half asleep and not too aware of whats happening.

my sister i feel sorry for, she is 14, and her bedroom is right up against my muns, and when my mother and her BF are at it, she can hear everything.....

I've been packing all day, that story is hilarious and horrifying, Jen!

Everyone else I will try and catch up soon! Gotta get ready for the trip some more... xoxo

I think it was the rephesh but I really only used a small amount!
I think I need to dtd deep and not shallow (although last month dh thought it was o plus 12,...yes, he knows the lingo and everything!!!) and we did deep....not really meaning to j and d but I have to leave for work at 715 am! So, likely it came out....????

Z says to try 2-3 days before attempt and full rephresh. I think I might try that.
Just concerned about number of attempts. I don't want to leave it at one attempt and be filled with regrets but I also don't want to sway blue and then be filled with regret.

Ootb...are you still bding?
How is it going?
did you o? I think you were bding everyday right?
