Now I need advice:
Not sure whether we keep TTC (not full on swaying, it’s too exhausting) over Xmas thru New Year or wait until we get back from our big holiday in March. My thought process was that if we got preg between Dec and Feb I’d be in the first trimester and likely have morning sickness again. I didn’t want to be flying and travelling around a lot with ms and have it ruin the holiday.
I know that each pregnancy is different and for all I know I could still be sick well into the second trimester (or also not sick at all!) so there’s no way of knowing.
Now I’m just so keen to get pg that I kind of don’t care and want to keep trying, but I know I’m not being rational... What would you do?

Blue2 you stole my life same oday and all I found out kind of late with dd as well about 3 weeks after missed af. I have already started testing and with each bfn I get so discouraged and I haven’t felt anything no af symptoms or implantation pains I kinda feel no bfp is coming although my test was negative with dd I felt it immediately
I have been on a sodium bender!!! Will be shocked if I'm not pg but then again, my PMS symptoms right before AF always include me being a garbage disposal for crisps lolQuote:

So I'm hoping my lack of intentional blue diet-ing won't hurt my sway but would be reassured if there are any boy moms out there who didn't eat HE diet?
Since last Saturday's PT was negative, think I'm going to force myself to wait until after my holiday party on 12/21 an test first thing 12/22 morning. Not that I advocate drinking while pregnant, but I will obsess over having a glass of wine at the party if I KNOW I'm pregnant vs. being able to enjoy one glass of wine in ignorant bliss
Hm, I don't think I really noticed anything til 4/5 dpo & even then it was just mild cramping. Fingers crossed!Quote:

I personally would wait... I waited until we got back from our family disney trip in oct to ttc. But it's definitely a personal decision!! Sorry about your chemical :( They aren't fun at all, are they :/ I hope you are doing okay.Quote:

Between 3-4 dpo I felt cramping and pulling sensation and was feeling like it was the month,but now I feel nothing but bloat and on top of the car accident I was involved in I just don’t think that it’s going to happen. I also don’t feel like AF is coming I’m just confused and anxious.
Should we keep up the exercise routine and BD routine through it the 2WW ?

Omg we really are the exact same, except it sounds like you swayed harder/better. I feel terrible your car wreck has added extra anxiety on top of it all! Poor thing. Try not to think too much about it, I am a believer that women's bodies endure all kinds of environmental stress (wars, drought, famine, domestic abuse) with the goal of maintaining a pregnancy. Motherhood in a nutshell: sacrifice everything including your body for the good of the babyQuote:

Atomic said my Clearblue Advanced digital PEAK reading on Thursday 11/29 night could have been my body gearing up to ovulate and then not (because of my 2-day temp drop Sat/Sun before a rise Mon morning, followed by the weird cramps). Had loads of Clearblue test sticks so actually started OPK testing 11/20 and had LOW all the way to 11/29 when it jumped straight to peak. Sorry for this dumb question, I'm a sway rookie but... when you say hard sway since August but two failed attempts, does that mean you tried during 2 cycles and then got AF?
When did you BD the weekend of the 11/30 around ov? We BD 11/30 & 12/2 & 12/8 but wish I would've done a lot more around 11/30 & 12/1... ugh! But I did read an Atomic post somewhere that said there have been blue sways with even 2 BD attempts
Have you been eating a lot of sodium? Maybe that is the bloat. I wonder if anyone other mums have like 'phantom period' PMS symptoms during 2WW before testing positive? I'm convinced I'm pregnant or else this is one hell of a PMS streak - have eaten half the house today
Also I caught myself quasi-nesting... obsessively purging photos on my iPhone, Craigslisting random stuff we don't need, Pinterest-ing nursery ideas... have you felt a bit this way?
Omg! Yay!!! That’s a strong line! Congrats [emoji322][emoji322]Quote:

Hope we get more blazin positives like girlie cat this month so we can get the heck out of here and on to the july aug sept dd group...or would it already be oct?
Should we keep up the exercise routine and BD routine through out the 2WW ? Please help.. Confused

For boy i would continue unprotected bd in the 2ww. Also keep the excersize. Most likely you will not get a bfp in the first month ttc.
At least that is what i would do.. you can always do a bit less, the three previous months overwrite whatever you do in the tww.
Hmm ok i found this: https://www.reliasmedia.com/articles...-of-conceptionQuote:

Yes keep up diet, exercise, and BD every 2-4 days during the 2ww. After ovulation is a good time to get exposure to the hormones in your husband's semen for future months. Don't worry about it messing up implantation, those of us with all boys always DTD in the 2ww and most women have a surge of libido around 7 DPO (right when babies are implanting) and so it's very unlikely that has any significant negative effect.
I meant failed at 3 attempts of bd during peak fertile window. I bd the 25th 29th 30th and 1st but O day was the 30th. Yes I have eaten more sodium than usual as part of my blue sway and didn’t even realize that the nesting is right on I have been cleaning out purses deleting apps and pictures. I told my husband although I’m not feeling like af is coming I also don’t feel like a bfp is coming either. I have had no patience the last few days so I guess I could call it pms but even with that no extreme chocolate cravings like usual and I haven’t gotten the acne. It could all be explained with other things but I’m not sure. my cycles are irregular which does nothing for expecting it lately it’s been around 31- 35 days but this year I have experienced up to 62 days. I have not been diagnosed with PCOS but I think I do have it. That’s why I got ovusense to confirm O. It’s so crazy I just think if the sperm is supposed to meet the egg and you bd around ovulation when the egg is there how do you not get pregnant?
Hi ladies, can i join here?
Am also in tww, and af should come at 22-23 dec. Hope not! But also im afraid i did some stuff in boy sway bad. We had 2 attempts. On 2 days when i had positive opks. I hope i did good with supps and diet so the timing cant play such big role in my sway. I did bsf also.
I have 2 girls, 4 and 2 years old, and both are conceived with one attempt and about 10+days abstaining.
Last month i had just one day positive opk, i should try than, this now is so confusing and frustrating.
Alliwantisblue, that sounds like a great boy sway! I started to doubt EVERYTHING after O!! Twogirls, you sound a lot like me! Two girls, 4 and 15 mo. The 15 mo old was conceived with a 1 attempt and 4 day abstain prior to. I was living out of town for school for DD1 so we weren’t every 2-4 dayers. We had abstained for about two weeks prior to me coming home just in time for O. Makes so much sense now. Fingers crossed you get a bfp for Christmas and hear blue after that!
I think AF is starting, took a test yesterday it was negative am due on tomorrow. Think we made our attempt too early on day 11 and I had ov pains day 14. Oh well will try again this cycle. Good luck everyone xx ����
Sillyginger i said that when i start reading this site, now it all make sense with my girls.
Is AF came? I read past few pages and i cant tell yet who is due when..
Did you exercise for your sway? I couldnt, im always running thru house for my girls and i was so tired. I did use gelatin for few days.
Thank you for nice answer
December isn't my month - woke up to extreme cramping @ 3am and a very heavy AF... ugh! Cramps are so bad I still can't sleep
Ava bracelet predicts my next O-day to be Saturday Dec 29th - any "under 2 week blue sway" recommendations? HE, red wine, no cigarettes, sleep, minimal exercise... luckily this sounds like exactly what I always do over Christmas break lol - then BD day of PEAK OPK then every day after?
Well, I’m out this month. Took a test today, 14 dpo, and bfn. I’m bummed but it’s ok. If I’d gotten a bfp, the baby would be due around dd2 birthday. And, hey, one more month on HE diet probably won’t be bad for my blue sway. I just wonder where AF is. I usually have an 11 day luteal phase. Maybe my luteal phase is getting longer due to being healthier and more fertile? That can’t be bad either! Congratulations to all who’ve gotten there bfp this month! Good luck to those still in the tww!! I hope all of us who are out this month get our bfp in January!
Hi ladies, don’t know if anyone remembers me. I’ve been a member for quite a while now and had three miscarriages in the last year and a half. Anyway, I’ve had a break from the boards and this morning I got a very faint bfp. I’m so scared it will end the same way as the last three!! https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...08f5ed2803.jpg

I’m so sorry @Blue2 I was just looking for my cycle buddy to see if you tested today. Still no af but that means nothing for me because it’s always random and comes whenever but to nervous to test today did a couple cheapies over the last few days and nothing but negatives last day was 9dpo. I’m scared that I’ll get a bfn and it will ruin the next few weeks of a sway! The only good think about not being pregnant right now is that if I ovulate with you again I’m home from work for the holidays to get all those attempts in!
Don’t be bummed with my daughter I didn’t get a positive test until 2 weeks after missed period! It could still happen
Sorry blue, but yes at least you can sway a bit harder now (; check out the he diet and eat everything and eat it the whole day till you sleep and as soon as you get up (:Quote:
