I am thinking about taking a break. The stress of swaying and ttc is really getting to me.
Shell, I was thinking the exact same thing today. There's just so much pressure.
Are you taking a break from TTC or just from the forum for a bit?
From ttc. Our chances are really limited next cycle anyway. But I realized I'm spending so much time dwelling on ttc stuff that Im missing out on the joy from the kids I already have.
I want a baby so badly. I'm not sure how much I even need for it to be a girl anymore.
That's exactly how I feel.
You're still young...enjoy your kids now.
I don't have much time left....I need to do this now. And I truly do not care, boy or girl - just as long as it's healthy. I'm so ready to be pregnant. I just need to relax to get there.
I hope everything works out for you and that you stick around at least. I love having you here! ♥
Aw, thanks so much. I'm 36 so I've crossed that line. I've never, ever tried this hard to get pregnant -- when I got pg with the baby, I was 33 and we only dtd one time that month, because of dh schedule. I just feel like maybe I've decreased my fertility SO much that my body won't let me conceive.
I'm so sorry youre having to go through this too, sweetie. I'll stick around -- I just can't quit y'all. ;)
I just need to relax, reevaluate, and rest. And maybe it will happen once I've rebooted lol.
I turned 40 in May and everything you just said is how I feel!!
I'm afraid I've messed something up, too. I had the easiest time getting pregnant for all 3 boys, but it was a while ago, and I wasn't trying to diminish my fertility.
I guess we should take it as a good sign that it's taking a while to happen...it's kinda, sorta what we were trying to do, when ttc a girl...it's not supposed to just happen. KWIM? At this point though, I just want a baby...right now.
We'll get there...promise. :) We'll both have sweet little babies in our bellies and our arms before we know it!!
Now go reboot and get back at it!! ;) Love ya, girl!!!
Girls, older age also sways pink. And I think it's stress, not your fertility. I'm 37. You can both do this. I hope bfp's are here in the next month or 2. I love you ladies!!!
Shell you will probably get pregnant as soon as you stop trying! I have to say to anyone over 35 to be grateful you can get pregnant or have your periods still. In my family menopause comes at the ripe ol age of 35-40 and it starts earlier every generation. I have signs of it already starting and I am only 26! This is likely my last baby because this one might kick my system into hyperdrive and push me right into the menopause :-/
I love y'all, too. :) Thanks so much for all the support and encouragement!
We will have our babies, Beadin. :)
No wonder I like u ladies so much I turned 37 in June. All I think is how it helps sway pink!! I conceived a girl last year with chromosome problems :(. An oopsie and can't get preg since. I was sick all year though. Now better and want my bfp this month to capitalize on my illness!
H&D, it's going to happen SOON!!! I have this really great feeling about you!! :)
So I must be a maximum of 4dpo ovulation today (not sure exactly when I ovulated) and I have all this excess saliva. Its driving me mad, I know it must be way too early to be a symptom. Maybe its something to do with the cold I've got, my kids had it first and my DS1 was making this annoying sucking noise the other day and said he couldn't help it.
It could also be because I have some horrible mouth ulcers although Im sure I haven't had it with mouth ulcers before. I think vitex gives me mouth ulcers I usually get them in the last few days before the 2 weeks off. I got them in my first few post partum cycles too so maybe its something to do with progesterone.
Or it could be because my body is craving food, Im probably getting close to losing too much weight. Hopefully it is my month so I can start putting it on again
sorry for the ramble.
12 DPO today and another BFN....I could cry. Fx crossed for those of you still testing!
I first started ttc around October last year, for the first time ever I was using opk and monitoring my cycle properly as we were using Shettles theory to begin with. My cycle started going crazy, I went from having a regular 29 day cycle to as short as 24 days and as long as 36 days. We had a break for a few months to try and let my cycle get back to normal, that was when I found this site and heard about the LE diet. I wanted to lose some weight anyway so thought it made sense to give it a go. That was the main thing I stuck to, I didn't bother with any other supplements and dh agreed to fr. I forgot about timing as I knew if I carried on with that I wasn't going to get pregnant. I'm 34 this year and so I feel like the clock is ticking, as much as I would love a little girl I know that to have a baby of any gender I had to get pregnant first.
So for those who are feeling so fed up and stressed with ttc I suggest maybe have a month out, relax, ignore your cycle, and start again with a relaxed sway. I really hope that you find you're pregnant really soon so you can make your families complete. Big hugs to you all :bighug:
Fish, I hope you get a nice, clear BFP on Friday. It's hard not to think that I'm out this month :( But, you're right-It's not over until AF is here, I'm hanging onto that tiny shred of hope. Maybe tomorrow will be my day! Hell, maybe I'll test again tonight-I've got a ton of cheapies buring a hole in my bathroom drawer.
AF is here, so I am definitely out. FX for all of you who are still waiting! We need some more BFPs to finish out the month!
ah crap, so sorry Shell. Next month is yours!!
Sorry to hear Shell :-/ You'll get em next time!
[QUOTE=fish2012;237091]not over until Af arrives sweetie,
I'm 8dpo trying top hold off till friday 11dpo
I'm 7dpo today and my silly self POAS! A drug store test since Beachy enlightened us they may be more sensitive. Of course it was BFN. I know I know it was WAY TOO EARLY to test. I don't think I'll test for a couple days now. I was feeling fine until I saw that stark whiteness!
Today I'm feeling slight cramping & lower back aches. I hope it's PG & not Vitex. Hmmm....
Thinking of you, Shell!! See you in Sept...♥
Shell, I wonder what was up with the + frer's. That doesnt make any sense at all. If you take a month off...relax. If you don't, :fx: for a + this cycle.
Thanks my Shell!! ♥ Pretty sure this month is done though....but I really am okay. I know I'll have a really cool cycle buddy/due date buddy next month ;)
Nope, it totally doesn't. If they had been internet cheapies, I would have thought I just had a bad lot of tests. But these came up within the safe zone -- not too soon after peeing, not too late that they could be evaps. And you could see it in all sorts of light. So I don't know. That makes two months in a row, though, with faint positives and then AF.
I really won't POAS until AF is due next month. I just can't handle it again.
And we'll be in the same thread WHEN you get your bfp next month. Notice I said when, not if.
Really sorry Shell, :bighug:lots of luck for a BFP very soon for you. :luck::luck:
Thanks ThreeMen&ALady...it means a lot...♥
Shell, you might want to mention it to your doctor.
I'm so ready to know if I am or if I am not! :sigh:
Anyone ever feel like they'll never get their girl no matter what they do? I feel so down about this and don't know why....I'm trying to read successful girl sways and find some similar to mine to cheer me up. :sad:
Don't get down lilpumpkin Im sure you'll get your girl. But it is a little scary that even after all this swaying we are still just rolling the dice, no guarantee. I was looking at my boys yesterday though and thinking about how awesome little guys they are, it wouldn't be the end of the world to have another, we make really good boys.
Im 5dpo today and still have heaps of excess saliva and had a sneezing fit today, symptoms? What do you think?
