Yes mocha, the time of year is a bugger for me too, but no way am I waiting until Spring! My boys were conceived in November, September and January.
My boys were June, August and Sept conceptions. It's funny...In regards to when they were born(no inductions)they were born on the 15th, 17th and 19th, respectively. I do aim for the 21st for the last one :wink: It's easier on my mommy brain....
DM - I am aiming for 4-18 because my boys were 2/6 and 3/12... it would make it a little easy on me.
And also hubby and my first night together was the only time we were able to do that... I was lucky to get 2 out of him during the sway because he was whiny!
My boys were conceived in June, February, May, and November so kind of all over the board. I very much want this cycle to work because my due date would be one day before my birthday in April. Plus I don't have any April babies. I'll be pretty bummed if this cycle doesn't work.
I lurk on here a lot, but I have a question....
Do you start getting pg symptoms before the egg implants? Is that possible?
I am 11dpo today (FF changed it from 14dpo) and I have several symptoms that started within the past couple days.....sense of smell is on overload (Dh might have to stop wearing cologne to work), crying easily, backache and cramping on 8-9 dpo, and a couple days ago it started getting painful to nurse (I only nurse twice a day). I tested this morning and got a BFN, but thought it was 14 dpo.....AF is never late always 13-14 dpo, so that is when I went on to FF and entered some more of my temps I had wrote down....I had a feeling I Oed 3 days after they said.
Anyway, you ladies opinions would be great. Here's my chart.....
My Ovulation Chart
Doula: Thanks for the info, I will be checking into those just as soon as I get my +. Thanks again!!!
Hello gals,
I have a couple of questions. Do you know of anyone that has gotten pregnant from BDing right after their cycle? Like 2-6 days later.
My second question is: is it possible to feel pregnancy symptoms only after 1 DPO??
We BDd yesterday which was O day, and today I have a bothering headache with some sort of dizziness. I'm not sure what's going on. That's why I'm wondering if one can get pregnant from having sex a couple of days after AF.
I haven't tested. I just don't want to see a BFN! :(
TIA
Ugh:( Here come the cramps.....It's kinda making me happy and freaked out at the same time.....I was crampy with my last cycle=no pregnancy....but I also get crampy when pregnant too. I haven't tested today as I'm wanting to save some tests for my future cycles when I'm actually TRYING to get pregnant. Limit of one ic per day now... :rofl: and I should know by Sunday at midnight -I'll be 11dpo exactly and I have a 10 day LP. Anyway....I've been having a bit of dizziness(totally weird) and this cramping today and that's it:)

Thanks again! sending you lots of pink dust your way and big BFP
Please shoot me... 6dpo BFN. I am so bloated my fat pants hurt, I am sick sick sick over everything in my kitchen, my head feels like it is on fire, and I am starving but don't know what to eat... the salad last night for dinner made me puck!
Purple that sounds so promising!! Fingers crossed for 2 sticky pink beans!!
DM, if it makes you feel better, I was crazy dizzy a few days ago - everytime I bent over I got lightheaded and saw stars...yet as you know, I'm not pregnant.
purplepoet - if you don't get your BFP this month I'm going to be so shocked. I think this is your month!
It better be because I have so many plans from the beginning of September until March of next year... swaying would be impossible because I will not give up the 10 lbs honey baked ham at Thanksgiving I hog most of it :mad:, the Italian Christmas dinner :sigh:, the birthday planning, traveling to Cali :think: maybe Jan, going to Rocky Point Mexico and enjoying the beach, and all the beef I have stocked up in the freeze :hair:
Thanks everyone....:pray::fingers::luck:

I've been taking b6 and I'm hoping it does something in the next few cycles. The vitex doesn't seem to be doing jack squat to my cycles. I mean, I've been on it 2wks on, 2wks off since Feb now and my cycles are stranger than they've ever been...ugh.
Anyway, have a wonderful cheat night:) You deserve it!!
Temp is down a teeny bit....test is Negative. I think I narrowly escaped this month!! I'm expecting a big temp drop tomorrow, hopefully. Geeesh, all this fuss over one month! I have to say Im excited to happily join the 2ww next month:) I think his sperm got the memo ;)
Hope everyone else is doing well! ~~~~~~~~BFP vibes for you all!
Phew! I hope you're right and you dodged the bullet, DM!
Thanks Mocha! My cp is even exactly the same as 10dpo last month so that's good too:)Quote:

If I was really struggling and the diet would go out the window if I didn't get preggo....I would definitely go lube etc free. Just my 2 cents:) xoxo good luck hun!
Thanks, DM - my instinct says to drop them or at least use them very, very minimally.
Phew DM!
Thanks Z! My hubby is also relieved as he gets to do "frequent release" this month!!! :rofl: (TMI) BJ's through AF and sex daily until after O.... with my 40 day cycles he thinks he's hit the jackpot! HAHAHAHAHA!Quote:

Purple, wow, I am sorry you are obviously feeling badly, but happy for you since those are excellent early preggo signs! Man, you may even have a pair in there!!
DM, PHEW indeed! I love all of your info about UC.....I don't know if I could do it, but I love reading about empowering births! Thanks for posting. LOL at your hubby's good fortune this month....mine would be over the moon and tempted to brag about it like he is in high school!
Ttcboy, I bet your headache and all are due to ovulating or just a rise in progesterone, but FX you continue to feel, erm, good symptoms!
Mocha, I am glad you are feeling up. I would say GO for it. I had the same do I wait or not conundrum, and Atomic thankfully urged me to just go for it. She is right....we ain't getting any younger, and the sooner the better. That being said, I think it would be GREAT to have my kids birthdays (well, 3 of the 4 of them!) so you could have a huge party for them all. They wouldn't care. My sister and I have our b-days 2 days apart, and we always had parties together and all, we loved it. I think we realized that we got a better party with one big one versus two little ones. More bang for the buck! I am sure you will have some good luck soon. FWIW, I conceived my daughters in October and July. I don't think there is TOO much to the time of year thing, personally.
So funny - if I'd known about swaying a year ago I probably could have persuaded DH to try for another armed with this information! So you're starting the regular BDing on cd1? Is that because you don't know when you'll O and you want to make sure you've done 'it' enough? I'm thinking we should be safe to start when AF is over on cd5. I *think* I'll O first week in September too as I'm pretty sure I'll O today :DQuote:

And PP, 6dpo is SO early to test! Don't fret! I don't think I've ever seen anyone here or on FF get a + before 8dpo, which is very early in and of itself.
I certainly wouldn't recommend the girl diet as a healthy way to lose weight after giving birth :D Well done to you too, I know we're both doing the opposite to what comes naturally!Quote:

I've never dieted in my life and quite frankly thought I didn't have the willpower to do it (I LOVE food), but I've really surprised myself sticking with this, and it makes me think that maybe I could eat a modified diet to lose weight after I'm done having babies. I would definitely add whole grains and more vitamins, though to make it more healthy. I also wouldn't keep protein quite so low so I could enjoy to occasional chicken breast.
So....what are the chances that these are wrong.....both came up within 5 minutes.....
Top one is FRER......took about 4-5mins to see. Bottom is clearblue...took about 3mins to see.

:holysheep::bigsmile::sad::cheerteam::oops::omg::s uprise::hair::tissue:
I feel so many things right now....most of all disbelief:shrug: I don't know why though...I mean I do know that sperm can live for along time...3 days isn't that long. Audible sigh~
I'm not going to that conference...am I?
OMG you are so knocked up right now!!! HUGE congrats....I bet this is the little girl you dreamed about!!! Yay, yay, yay, yay!!! Stick little pink bean stick!!!! I am so happy for you!!!
Wow! I really needed that:) I'm actually in tears right now...LOL! The emotions have started already! Thank you Princess:HH: xoxo Let's trade some dust...shall we?Quote:

Lets just say that I have a few friends with all girls that would like to not know me!! :giggle:
Doulamama :omg: I want to swear but that will have to do!!! I know you're feeling all sorts of things at the moment but I'm over the moon for you and I know you'll be excited too once the news has sunk in - you have all that wonderful pregnancy, childbirth and newborn stuff to look forward to and I just know you're amazing at it all - and this was clearly meant to be. Have you told DH yet? He won't be happy about missing out on that regular BDing (and the other stuff you promised him) :wink: This is fantastic news, really it is, and there will be other conferences in future (though it is a pain that you'll lose $$$ on this one). Congratulations and once again :holysheep: Woo hoo!
Oh, DM - sorry about the conference, but this baby must have really wanted to join your family, and is meant to be. I'm sure it's going to be your girl. Congratulations!:HH::HH::HH:
Doulamama!!! Congratulations, thats fantastic news!!
DoulaMama!!!!! Huge congrats!!!! I envie you big time! :p
Can't wait to see your nub shots and I'm praying it's a healthy :XX: you're cookin' in there! :HH:
I'm baaaack!!!!! :cool: Missed you all badly!
It seems it's nothing for me again, I had brownish CM for 2 days and now some fresh blood??????? :think: It is so long to wait until August 15th when AF is supposed to show ( it will probably be earlier :sigh:)
Oh wow DM!!! Congratulations!!! This little baby is surely meant to be!!!
DM, did you have a definitely negative yesterday? I saw you had a bfn yesterday at 9dpo and I'm 9dpo today and had a BFN... I'm so hoping tomorrow's test shows differently but I'm starting to lose hope.
Congrats DM! How exciting!
DM! Oh.my.goodness. :hugs: I know you are going to miss out on the conference you've been dreaming of for so long (and have already booked, gulp) but this baby was CLEARLY ready to come now. I mean, do you remember the dream you had when we were in the 2ww together before, about a little girl coming to visit you and asking you to stay?!? I'm getting chills thinking of that. FX she was a vision of your baby girl :pray:
My 1st baby could not have been less planned and I was really, really upset about the timing. And of course now, 5 years later, she is hands down the best surprise I've ever had in my life. I wouldn't change a thing. And I know you KNOW you'll love the baby and so on and so forth but I also know how bad it sucks to have your plans interrupted, so I'm sorry for that. It isn't easy. But... I am THRILLED for you!!!! I can't help it! I just have such a great feeling with surprise babies :bigsmile: FX you have a healthy 9 months and an easy peasy pregnancy!
Thank you! xoxoQuote:

In regards to the tests I took yesterday....On a whim I decided to use my clearblue last night....in 3 mins there was a faint line. I then totally disregarded it because I've had mega evap lines and I thought it was a mistake. I then hunted in my dresser for my last FRER and took it....urine was a bit more diluted. I looked at it in 3 mins...nothing. Put it down, brushed my hair, teeth and looked again...2 lines.....Quote:

I'm as dry as the Sahara with some random, white, small globs of mucus sometimes. CP is like I'm getting my AF. No headaches, no nausea...it's still hard to believe that I'm pregnant. I'm almost expecting the digi to say "not pregnant". Don't give up hope Mama!!! I need some more April DD Mama's!!!!! Come on, 4Blue!!!! xoxo
Thank you!:HH:Quote:
