Girlieplease I really hope its the month for you, Id had enough by this month and we went on holiday and was gutted I couldn't enjoy nice food.
I tend to not do the exercise every day in the 2ww as I just need a break from it at some point.
I used a very sensitive 10hcg test which is probably why I got a positive at 10dpo.
We ended up doing a 2 or 3 day cut off as ended up having 3 or 4 days of positive opks!
3sacharm, hope you get a positive. I had lots of aches in the ovaries and womb area from 7 dpo that I thought maybe I was having a delayed ovulation and still feel crampy so pre-af cramps could also be implantation cramps. I was also suddenly tearful and tired yesterday.
Sending some babydust to you all!
Bit nervous about how to eat just in case I end up with a chemical or early miscarriage as then I wouldnt want to wait 3 months to ttc again so I think Ill still try and eat alot of girl friendly foods and just add in fish and chicken.
Will make it over to the due date groups soon too :-)
Hi all
So on my 3rd week of exercise, which is just brisk walking for 60 mins every day- (with my 2yr old) This am the weather was horrendous so i attempted a cardio dvd which my toddler was having none of! So i had to stop after 7 minutes!! I might try pick it up again this evening when he is asleep! Aarg! I have not lost nor put on weight since i started LE in Feb, my weight has remained the same. How long did it take you guys to start shifting the weight whilst exercising? Im a little concerned that im ttc July and my exercise has been pretty dismal!
Are you on the normal LE diet or the pcos one? If the former yoy might need to read up on the pcos one as I've done LE three times now, aiming for 1600 cals, and always lost weight every week! And I wasn't exercising though so as I'm doing the 60mins this time I'm aiming for 1700. I've been on it two weeks and have lost three pounds even with a cheat day.
I'm on normal LE. I've read a bit of the pcos and it felt more complicated for me.. if I did change tho would 2/3 weeks be enough as my attempt time is fast approaching?
Chocolate I have been wondering this,I am keen to eat differently, I would be so devastated to have a chemical or a miscarriage, with the chemical it happens pretty soon so I think there would not be enough time to do any real damage diet wise. With a miscarriage, swaying after a miscarriage sways pink so I wondered if that would override the damage done with a more relaxed diet? People start prenatal as soon as they get a bfp so I think some looseness in diet and exercise should be OK? Thoughts anyone? X
Maybe just swap some of your fast burning carbs for slow burning ones?
Thanks for trying to help me weezie :) Feels like I've been on LE for 5 years not 5 months!!
I remember that too well! Starting LE while BF DS3 was a bad choice for me as I weaned him two months in and four months later I still hadn't had a period! So had to drop the diet to get my cycles back, then go on LE again!!Quote:

I don't really know yet as I'm waiting for a cycle since HT. But I'm expecting one in July so will then try in August. I'll be 37 by then so hopefully that'll sway too!Quote:

Yes! Lower fertility is pink. We'll see. I'm nervous this time around, for the first time, because our two HT transfers didn't stick. I feel nervous that I'll not be able to conceive :-( I'm still going to try all thus though!Quote:

Today I should be able to go to the gym, but tomorrow is a lunch for a colleague going on pat leave. I'm thinking I might have to start biking home from work just to have a fall-back plan for days like those. Montreal has a rent-a-bike program so I could just bike one-way on days that I need the hour.
That sound really good Erin that your thinking of back up plans. I didn't bike outside but did all mine on an exercise bike indoors. i find out on July 10th if it worked

Congrats, that's so exciting! Is July 10 an u/s or harmony-type test?
I'm paying for a private gender scan through baby bond. Think you can either Google that's or look for baby bond through mothercare

So soon beautiful rainbow how exciting. My exercise has not been great in the 2 ww, af is going to hit anytime so planning to get back into tonight, do my video and try and run tomorrow, any tips that help af start? I thought exercise might have been a solution but no, and I get the inconvenience of a period, yeah. Good luck everyone. How you feeling about your scan beautiful rainbow? X
I will be nearly 17 weeks then can't believe it. This pregnancy so far has flown for me

I just had three days in a row of hitting my 60 minutes. :) Wednesday was the gym, Thursday I biked home from work, Friday was a holiday here so we went for a walk in the park while my older boy rode his bike. Not sure how I'll get it in today as my MIL is visiting. Maybe she'll be up for a walk with our dogs...
How is everyone doing?
That is brilliant well done!!Quote:

Thank you, we did! I had a little bread for starter and then gnocchi in pesto for my main, with Italian wine of course :-) I've definitely gone over my calories but not too bad on fat or protein really.Quote:

Hello ladies. I am back in this thread after two weeks without exersice. I have been pregnant but unfortunately the embryo did not grow so here I am back to square one. I am currently waiting for MC-bleed to begin but it can take up to two weeks because my HCG-level is still quite high. I feels like ages since I have had my running shoes on. It has been a relief not to have to do 6 times cardio a week. I now realise how big effort it actually is and what a puzzle it is to fit in 60 fucking minutes six days a week besides a full time job, 3 kids and a big house. I am not sure I will be able to do six a week this time so I will aim for 4 times a week and cross my fingers that this is enough to sway pink. Happy that I have you to keep me motivated.
Sorry to hear Dreamsister. I agree, it is such hard work to fit 6x60 mins in between three small kids, school commitments, work and heaps of housework. I totally get it, I've only been doing the exercise for 3 weeks and it's a serious juggle. 60 mins is a really long time! On the weekends when my husband can mind the kids I go for a walk/run (I do about 8kms, 3-4 of that is running), but being winter here in Australia it is really dark in the morning and night so that isn't an option during the week. I bought a cheap exercise bike and I get up at 5:30am and do 30 mins on the bike, and then a 30 min work out video on YouTube (I love Les Mills Body Combat) a few times a week, and then I'll try to go once a week to a cardio class run by mums who have a child minding facility. And then there are just days when I don't get time to exercise because that's just life.

Dream sister. The exercise was also my downfall and I always struggled getting it in 6 days a week think I averaged about 4 hoping it worked, well i find out 3 weeks today but I'm mental preparing myself for a boy. I'm sorry your back here I was really hoping for good news for you! Fx your rainbow baby will be your girl.x

I find exercise not too bad to fit in but like you dream sister I let it slide a bit in 2 ww and then when I had to get back to it, I was like how on earth? I actually find the diet more tricky am either way under or just over on mostly protein. I just have to eat very little of what my family eat or make a different menu for me, which I cannot be bothered with. Welcome back dreamsister, sorry your in this position, but I think having a miscarriage sways pink, so that may outweigh the slips you had with diet and exercise, I really hope so and your rainbow pink baby is coming! X
Dreamsister I'm so sorry for your loss. I hope you get your sticky bean soon.
Agreed, the exercise is hard to fit in around work, kids, and life. I try to go on my lunch hour or bike home from work because there is no way I can fit it in once I'm home. My kids still wake up during the night and I swear it's like they have sixth sense when I'm trying to get something done, that's the exact moment they start yelling "mamaaaaa!" :-/
I'm back ladies! AF realized she forgot to pay me a visit, hahaha! A whooping 64 day cycle!! Hopefully this time it will be shorter.
I just completed my 60min of cardio. The heat was rather oppressing, but I'm glad I'm done.
Good luck everyone!

Wow, 64 days! That must try your patience. You are still BFing your youngest and he's under a year, right XXforhubby? Hopefully things will even out for you soon. At least you are ovulating, though! You still have a shot. :)
Anyone else smell like a strong ammonia scent after they workout? I never used to do 60 min of cardio and it's nothing anyone else can smell, like its on the inside of my nose! I did some research and it looks to be like the by product of fat burn. (Can I get a hell yeah?) but is this ok? I don't want to be causing crazy chemical reactions in my body that might not be healthy! Anyone experienced this? It goes away after 5-10 min. And o only smell it once I stop working out. So weird!

I smell it every time! My GP said it's completely normal. It's weird but it oddly reassures me that I'm making real changes to my body!

Ladies, we let the thread fall down to page 2! Does this mean we all fell off the wagon? ;)
