Due in June/July/August 2015
Congrats Nahri!!! That's great news :)
Congrats Nahri! Hopefully this is a start to great October of BFP's.
My DD was born very ill, and almost died, and I said the same thing, it was karma for wanting a DD. But you know what? It isn't true. Having a desire for a gender isn't a 'bad' thing that deserve karma coming to bite you. It isn't like you are not caring and loving to your sons because they aren't girls. Hugs to you mama

And Rosie-- please don't give up. Did you have a BFP this cycle or did AF just show up? I definitely don't think you are being punished for wanting a DD. Did Atomic suggest that you start taking zinc and iron after being on the diet so long and your losses? She did for me and I know I read that iron helps increase egg quality. Is your DH taking OLE too? I think your DD is waiting for you still. (((HUGS)))
Yay Nahri!!!! That is definitely a positive! My EDD is June 14th, so we will be at almost the exact same spot the entire pregnancy. Yay!
Rosie, I am so sorry to hear you are so stressed about the miscarriages. I don't think it is karma for wanting a girl, but it is clearly very troubling to you (understandably). I don't know what your situation is, but I hope that you have someone that you can talk to to try to work through some of the stress and anxiety you are feeling. Perhaps if you can talk through some of it, perhaps you can learn to believe everything everyone else is telling you. Or at least grieve the loss and be able to move forward in a way that works for you.
As for those who are considering skipping a month, I think it is a very personal decision. I think it comes down to whether you think you would be secretly hoping for a BFN that month. If you would be, then skipping it is fine. But if you think you would be happy with a BFP even if it meant the due date was not at the ideal time, then skipping that month is probably not right for you.
Good luck to everyone!!! Hoping to see lots more BFPs this month!
I skipped a month just to get back on track with my diet. I was very strict except for my 2 cheat meals a month but we got over run with family gatherings/dinners I would just say oh I am on a diet which kept most food from getting crammed down my throat but not all. Sometimes a month off just really helps to reset your stress level as well. No pee sticks, no possibility of disappointment, and if you or DH is worn out then no BD to worry about either. Do something nice for yourself and just relax for a month and pick it back up again later!
Yah!!! Nahri!!!
Rosie honey you have been through ALOT seriously. No one should have to go through back to back miscarriages. Big hugs to you and im sure your little lady is waiting for you! Xxx
Go bluebonnet as you know I did every four days plus one attempt I was really nervous about it but just decided being pregnant meant more than my 5% increase of 'getting a girl' , so glad I did it I also conceived after a 2 month sway break deft think that helped. I would not recommend taking months off generally ( my DH had a burst appendix) but it did me mentally a world of good not to be so obsessively thinking about ttc/2 ww etc good luck ladies more BFPs for October please!

Woo hoo Nahri. That's a definite bfp. Wishing you sticky thoughts :)
kitkat - thank you! Looks like you are another every 4 days plus OPK success story so that gives me confidence :)
Nahri - HUGE CONGRATS! Enjoy your much deserved BFP !!!
Trying hard not to get my hopes up as sore bbs is often an af symptom for me from about 6/7 dpo. However, my bbs are sooo sore. Fingers crossed it will lead to good news. Only just 9 dpo (it's just past 12am here). I'm torn as to when I should test. I O on CD 16 this cycle and anytime I O on CD 16, my LP is always 12 days. Argh! I don't know. I ordered tests from EBay. I deliberately ordered tests that will take a while to get them.

I can not remember off the top of my head but I did post a sway sometime in Jan-Mar 2012 and everything is in there.
kasey - With DS2 I had a lot of very bad thoughts and wishes when I found out he was a boy. But when he was born with a large skin growth on his ear I was so afraid of what caused that. The Dr said he could have a problem with his kidneys or hearing and ran a bunch of test for the last 4 years. He is healthy except for a few allergies. But I feel that because I prayed for God to take him back so I could have a girl, God gave him something to scare me into loving him. I do love him so much now and he has always been a mamas boy. I wouldn't trade him for a girl ever! We did have the ear tag removed because a few kids called him Shrek and I flipped out and kept him inside until it was removed.
Nahri - Congrats that looks like a BFP.
So I O'd yesterday... DH knew something was up because I was super crabby and super tired all day. CD16 today. I may start to test in 5-7days. With DS3 I started to see a faint line early and he was a twin. I don't want twins but I would like to know if an early BFP is normal for me or maybe means twins.
I did take clomid... 25mg from cd3-9 and then 50 cd10. We had family show up for the weekend and I didn't want anyone seeing the pills. They know we want more kids but we don't like to talk about it everyone.
I hate all the waiting in pregnancy... wait to get preg, wait to get bfp, wait for gender, wait for baby. I am so glad this will be my last.
I agree with disliking all the waiting! For some reason it is bothering me- I am having trouble staying positive. I NEVER struggled to get pregnant with my boys! I like to think the diet is working, but I always second guess myself. Did I have too many cheat meals (I can't do cheat days- I would never recover!) Did I eat too many of the wrong foods? Is the PCOS diet too healthy for me? Ugh! I just want to forget about all this and get my BFP! Knowing my luck, I will still be ttcing by Christmas! It has already been four months!

I got DS3 right after Christmas... All the good Christmas foods!
I even think about that stuff now because I know I have had a few cheats like 6 chicken wings on sunday right before I owed. but I then I add up my weekly calories and realize there was plenty of room.
I could practically have written your post :) I'm a really bouncy positive person who's stuck to LE amazingly well (better than last time) the whole way through with hardly a cheat meal (just some creative accounting). BUT as I've still not had AF since stopping BF in July (yeah I know, three months!!!) I keep thinking that the diet has changed my chemistry too much! I conceived my three boys at the first attempt (more or less) and we've now been DTD every four days for over two months now. So I feel confused. Part of me is glad I'm less fertile by not conceiving yet, but the other part of me is just desperate to get PG now. Argh! I absolutely LOVE this site. I love the way we can vent and rant and worry and everyone supports us.Quote:

Now I just want a BFP so I can get on with eating whatever I fancy! Argh. Tonight DH is away for a few days, so I had a garlic and mushroom crepe (ready meal so nice and processed, unlike anything I'd normally eat) and reduced fat oven chips, with white wine. Pretty LE meal I think. But we've all got colds in our family atm and that makes me hungry. I hope I'm hungry cos I'm ovulating too but I've been monitoring my CP and CM for a while now and haven't seen anything of note. I just want either a BFP or at least evidence that I am ovulating again!!! Thanks ladies xxx
Doctor confirmed! Attachment 21339
Wee Mail for the day :)
Attachment 21340
I'm currently on CD26 which puts me at 9DPO. I took clomid CD5-9 and ovulated CD17. At 3DPO I started having a super heavy strange feeling in my uterus, and at around 5-6DPO I started with light nausea which has gotten much worse. I know lots of people have false pregnancy symptoms with Clomid but I had nothing when I used it and got pregnant with my son. My OB ordered a HCG Quant and a progesterone which they drew today and I got a call this afternoon that the quant was negative (0). I know it can be too early but I had hoped it'd show even a tiny bitty amount. Last night the nausea woke me out of a dead sleep and I had dreams of seeing two lines all night. I think I'm losing my mind! LOL Gonna keep using my internet cheapies and dollar tree tests until AF shows her face. I hate the 2ww!!
This is amazing news Nahri! Congratulations!
ThinkinPinkin,
Sounds promising. I hope this is your bfp. Hang in there :)
Good luck thinkinpinkin :D I am also 9 dpo :) I have felt nausea on and off more so when I eat or when I haven't eaten enough. Sending you all my pink dust!!
good luck thinkinpink!
2 DPO here and time is standing still
Good Luck Kaseybaby!
Only 8 more days to go :)
Omg! I was soooo close to buying a hpt today. My bbs are so sore and I have a lot of cramping today which isn't usual for this time of the month. I am trying so hard not to look too much into it. I figure I wasn't meant to buy a test today though. I walked into the shop and ran into a work mate, then I saw my Mum (who doesn't know we're ttc). I figured it wasn't meant to be. Plus, I bought 50 hpt's on Ebay the other day, they were sent out today.
Congrats, Nahri!!! You inspire me!
Rosie, do whatever you need to do to honor the lives that were inside you. I had a m/c with my first and made new curtains for the room I hoped would be a nursery someday. If you are sure that you want to keep trying, maybe you should take a break from the diet and just work on getting yourself to optimal health. Or you might want to get tested to see if there's some genetic disorder you're at risk for and you just got lucky the first couple of times? Don't wallow in despair, get up and take action! *HUGS*
Boysway, I hope to see some peeing going on soon! ;-)

I did notice that some people will have another egg released a few days to a week after the first. My Dr even told me to DTD from end of AF to the start of the next one. He said that it is very common to have false O pains around the normal time you will O but not have a healthy egg. Sometimes even test strips can pick up the start of fertility but it last longer then normal. The only true way to know O is to monitor with u/s.
Boysway, sending all my blue dust your way!!! Thank you guys :) crampy today (10DPO) maybe implantation? Who knows!
So exciting, I hope there will be a lot of bfp's! I hope I can join you in two weeks or something. That will be my first attempt.
Congratulations nahri!
Doh! I stupidly sat down to check my emails, facebook etc with a coffee and a packet of Lotus caramelised biscuits (know the ones? spekuloos/caramel flavour?). So have unconsciously eaten most of the packet! Doh! Probably about 900cals! Luckily I had had a good LE day so far so have definitely gone over, but mostly in sugar not protein/fat. Whoops. I'll be on the ball again tomorrow.
How's everyone coping with the waiting game? DH is away till Friday so without him to chat to, my thoughts keep dwelling on the whole TTC thing. I may test tomorrow but am scared to do it as I think it'll be BFN again :(
It's frustrating for you weezie. I was lucky that my AF arrived 6 weeks after stopping BF. If you don't get your BFP it may worth a visit to the GP???
I finally got my positive opk this evening! Day 21 ( think delay was caused by my chemical pg last month ...last time I ovulated on day 22 I conceived twins!
So tonight's the night.... month 5.... wish us luck!!!
Fingers crossed it's a pink one!
I still haven't tested, 10 dpo for me. I've had nightshifts and a funeral today to keep my mind off testing. Mind you, the cramps haven't eased. They are there constantly.
Good luck ladies :)
ThinkinPink, that sounds promising but just a little early. For what it is worth, with DS#1, I saw my OB on 11DPO and my HCG test came back negative, but a few days later, I got my BFP. Hopefully that will happen to you too.
Nahri, YAY!!!
Boysway, I am on pins and needles waiting to hear what happens. Fingers crossed for you!
Weezie, I wouldn't worry about a little cheat like that. We all cheat a bit here and there and, frankly, it isn't like you "cheated" with healthy foods. =)
True! Sugary biscuits aren't too bad. Just used a cheapy and it's a clear BFN again. :( I might start taking my temp every morning and see if I can see any evidence of a cycle yet.
Sorry to hear that weezie :(
Well, I am still here! Cd32, 17dpo....I keep thinking AF is coming but it's a false alarm! I have white cm, not sure if that's a sign, as I never paid attention before!
weezie... are you taking anything to bring your cycles back?
Lovesunshine, have you tested? The fact that af hasn't shown is a good sign!
Weezie, I agree with purple, have you tried to do something to encourage your cycle to come back? I think vitex is supposed to help bring af back. Not sure if you are swaying for pink or blue, but vitex might help with a pink sway.
