TTC Girl - January 2012

Thanks, Jen. I'm used to comments like that from my other brothers, but this brother seemed to be the only one who understood my desire to have a girl. Now I guess I know his true feelings....

I also find it tough because my Mom, who's my best friend, tries her best to be outwardly supportive, but I can tell she thinks this isn't a good idea. I think the m/c scared her and she would have been far happier if I'd decided not to try again. She also really despised the idea of the LE diet and it's one of the reasons I made an effort to eat lots of food in front of her this weekend. I know it's just cause she's worried about me and doesn't want me to go through the heartbreak of another m/c or finding out I'm having another boy, but I can't help but feel a sting from her very well concealed disapproval (which I only notice because I know her so well).

NOTHING, not even a little line.
I am devastated.

I am sooooo sorry...MEGA HUGS to you, Lemon! Last cycle, I felt much the same way...I knew I was pregg and alas, BFN staring me down on Christmas, and then the next day, and the next...I'm your age too and the clock is ticking for me...This will be our very last shot at a girl. AGHHHH the stress! :( Hang in there, I'll keep cheering you on, sister! :cheer: :hugs:

Somewhere I heard that the best time to take an OPK is around 2pm so I've always stuck to that and only take them once a day, always at 2pm. It seems to really work well for me and it gives me a good picture of where I am O-wise. Hope you guys catch that :pinksperm: very soon!!!

I feel like this is just more motivation...I'm going to get a weight loss ticker since I've been dyinng to get some kind of ticker....I am going to start working out now, but I'm not going hardcore until I see AF show up next week...

I haven't gotten a chance to respond to you in a while but wanted to say that as much as you want to be preggers NOW, I think it's a great plan to try to lose weight and TTC in April. I highly suggest taking a look at MyFitnessPal.com as it's super easy to use, there is a supportive and very knowledgeable community there (I'm there too, :bigsmile: ), it made losing weight a no-brainer for me and it's FREEEEEEE!!!! Sending you TONS of :HH: and :luck:!!!

Sigh...Sending more :HH: your way, MJ!!! I am so sorry...:( Where's the "rainbow" smiley??? We really need one of those! You're on your way to your R A I N B O W...

Almost to the end of AF! Cd 4 hoping she leaves tomorrow!
Been finalizing plans for this cycle and I am beginning to feel better about our plans so far. My only thing is trying to figure out when to take repHresh. I ovulate cd 17 or cd 19 sometimes so I want both days to be covered. When would you guys take it?
Today I am going grocery shopping, I am hopping on board with the LE diet. Yesterday was my first attempt which didn't go over soo well. So I went on here and stole some Recipes that Atomic had posted. Let's see if today's attempt is better! I hope all is well with everyone! Anyone ovulating soon?? :)

Mocha, I am so so so very happy for you!!!! Praying for a happy and healthy 9 months for you with a lil pink bundle at the end!

Definitely darker lines today Mocha! Early hpt is "supposed" to be a good sign for pink so FX

Pinkin- Did you have an attempt last night?
