I'm happy to hear a positive update Mocha - and I'm so pleased you found a sympathetic technician and a better place to go for your future scans. You were treated appallingly by the other place after your m/c x

I'm on CD10 so I should be O'ing within the next week or so. I have a cycle that varies so I'm never exactly sure, my last two cycles have been kind of long but I had also been really stressed (taking my CPA exam) so I think that might have delayed O. But right now I have a little cold, all stuffed up so I'm not sure if that is going to affect me but we shall see. I started doing OPKs yesterday and they have very visible 2 lines that seems like it could be a start to a fade in (todays was just slightly darker than yesterdays) then again sometimes they stay "almost positive" for a while so who knows.

Thanks, Z :HH:. When I told the tech that story today she said she's heard a shockingly high number of complaints like that about the other u/s place. It was just so nice to have a tech who 'gets it', having had 2 m/cs of her own.

wow this board is soooo busy im having trouble keeping up.....:)

i think your intuition, is usually right, i knew my first 3 were boys right from day 1, my 4th i thought maybe girl, untill about 15-16 weeks ,then i was like , no its def a boy, and then when i went for my scan a month later there were boy bits everywhere...lol

this time im not sure, at first i thought boy, and i was happy to convince myself that it was another boy, but the last few weeks im thinking girl, and im not sure if its intuition kicking in , or if its just desire taking over.
im trying really hard not to get my hopes up for pink, but i just cant seem to stop it.....

I agree I'm having a hard time keeping up as well. But I also agree with intuition but it's hard to trust it when you have desire mixed in there. With DS1 my husband wanted a boy so bad I thought he would have a hard time coping if it was a girl so my worry of him having a hard time really clouded what I knew was true. So I won't say I was 100% positive but we did buy "boy" bedding before we found out (it was a really great deal) and only looked at boy names, I felt like deep down I just knew but I was still worried I was wrong. With DS2 I remember the exact moment I knew he was our 2nd little boy. My DH, sister and several others were saying they knew it was a girl and then one night in the bath a few weeks before our ultrasound (we had it done at 15 weeks at one of those paid places) I was sitting with my hands on my belly completely relaxed and I just got this feeling that I knew he was a boy and I was not surprised in the least when they told me.

I think this is why I am so confused what to eat and when to bd and how often etc!
I am also worried about raising ph by dtd too often!
I used rephresh on Tuesday, bd on Wed and now today I feel o coming on....so, no FR, just abstinence!
Any thoughts!?
I also feel like it is luck.....and swaying just sways a little and yet, I invest so much in it! It is crazy!

I need some encouragement:)

I was kind of freaked out to eat dinner last night when I was thinking about this (but I ate!). I'm sure it cannot work this way but I'm always thinking of things like this b/c we just don't have the answers!

I really worry about this as well and to me falls into the 'luck' part of swaying on what time of day you pop the egg. I guess it is something I can't do anything about so try not to worry about it! xx

My tech was sympathetic and chatted with me the whole time about my m/c - she had two herself so she really understood. She agreed that the other place I go has nasty techs (remember I told you all about how when I went literally hours after my m/c the woman didn't say 'I'm sorry' even once and just yelled at me for not having a full bladder??) - she said she used to work there and quit because she hated her co-workers. I'm definitely asking my midwives to only send me to this new place with my next pregnancy. As an added bonus - they do the bloodwork right there too!

Mocha, that is fantastic news. It must be so good to know you are all clear and from now on all symptoms are from a new pregnancy!!! (which I am sure is round the corner..) xx

Well...maybe I spoke too hastily. I just started spotting again :(. I'm hoping it was just irritation from the internal u/s - it's really minor and just pink when I wipe. I'm so sick of this - I don't want to see any blood on my toilet paper again until after I have a baby in my arms!

I am not even sure if I am jumping to conclusions...how can I possibly o on cd 10????
I do know with DS 2 I conceived on cd 8 with weeks of abstain...lol, DS 1 was 11 mos old!
So, of course...I would try the exact same thing!!!

So no more rephresh?
Anyone else...opinions?
Could I possibly be oing this early..or is the rephresh creating this lubey EWCM.....!?

Either way,....gotta get prego!
This swaying is driving me wild!

thanks for the help maybe!

Didnt you do every other day???

Hi Lemon, still here..... Just coming out of the 2WW with a BFN. Think I will be back to CD1 tomorrow...

We DTD for 3 days straight but with DH releasing first before the first 2 attempts.

What did you decide to do in the end? xx
