TTC BOY November Chit Chat Thread - All welcome!!

Lola - ok maybe not skinny but at least on the way down. I too am hoping for a pretty good third trimester :)
It's rough when kids ask those kinds of questions especially since the truth is so unsatisfying for them. Not long after we told the kids dd2 asked if we were going to lose this baby too. It ripped out my heart to have to tell her I honestly didn't know but was doing everything I could to keep it safe. These are the days I wish we weren't so honest with them.

Hobber & doula - I know I'm in the minority amongst my real life friends. My sil and bil's gf both freak if they even suspect their men have had a peek. I think it's got a lot to do with his honesty, usage and time spent together lol We've got 17 years, he doesn't lie about it and knows I don't care if he looks at it as long as he's not off with it instead of being with me.

TTC5, what did the dr. say?

Flava, I worry about all that xmas baking too, but oh well... my DS was conceived in Dec., so I think it is a good month for me. I hope anyway!!

Lola, I think I am in the minority far as the porn is concerned. Most women don't seem to want their DH to look at it. I'm sorry you had a bad experience with it. :(

My app is Monday they were all booked out till then :(

YAY for 3rd tri, 3p1b!!! May it be a non-painful and joyous one for you!

So, last night, my youngest says, "Mommy, when are you going to have a baby? I thought you wanted to have one? How many miscarriages did you have? Was it 2? Didn't you have one before G was born (big sis)? I just want you to have one soon." Just ALL sorts of questions. I guess it is good and bad to let your kids in on this stuff. I'd just hate for her to repeat it to anyone. I am usually doing ok these days, especially with feeling better about my figure, but it still hits me hard. I've done my homework on IVF now and am putting it on the backburner for a while. I'd hate to go to ridiculous lengths and expense to have a baby when we could have had a free one if we would have just waited a bit longer.

Meh. At least I get to hear Nutcracker music all day, which is making me happy. Plus, I am finding a new outlet for my ridiculous need to gather information incessantly, which is vegetarianism. And buying Christmas presents early, which makes me feel rather on top of things.

Oh the little precious hey!!!! I have told my girls well bigger two anyway that I have lost babies in the past. DD2 always asks about her twin. I didn't tell you ladies that I saw John Edward last month hey? He picked up that we want more kids but stopped there (I think cos it was a live show and my Mum was next to me, so prob knew to protect my privacy lol) but he said there was a twin around me ..... made DH and I cry!

The ex with the porn addiction said it's just a visual thing, all guys do it, blah blah.....BUT he always begged me to dye my hair blond and grow it really long and go to a tanning bed and wear this and that in the sack, it got weird. It was like the only thing that turned him on at one point so he could never just be with me, or any girl afterwards, apparently, like a normal person. But once, just to see what he'd do, I subscribed to a, um, ladies' site and left it up online and he FREAKED out and said how could I look at other naked guys. It was awesome. What a douche. That is why I am leery of guys and porn, I guess, but I do know that many use it wisely, LOL.

And seriously, please don't be jealous of me. I still look like a cow, but losing this weight is the only thing I can do now. If I could get pg easily, I would be on the diet still. Or hell, probably have a baby by now.

Don't worry about the psychics, but I hear you about wanting to skip a cycle with the diet. I don't think a little laxness in the 2ww would kill your sway, but I agree with 3p1b, you might as well have a good confident month.

Oh what a sleeze! And LOL at your payback!!!

Yep I go to dr Monday.

Lola: My older children know about our losses, but normally don't bring them up. Maybe your DD notices your weight change and thinks your not TTCing anymore. I have a friend who's DH has hardly any sperm and they did IVF and only got 20 sperm and only 10 were usable....they got PG their first try. I am so happy for them. She did say the IVF is like buying a car, but so much more worth it. I do understand about debt, though....we try avoid it at all cost, too. You are sooo lucky to enjoy the Nutcracker all the time!!!

3p1b: I know, only one of my children know we are expecting....they would all be asking if the baby would be a "take home" one if I told them.

Well, the sinus yuck is gone now, but now I am coughing and it is all in my chest. Yuck....I just want to feel normal!!!

B- I'm sure your gd will linger for a bit after delivery, mine did w/dd3, but having a sweet little critter to cuddle really does help.
Oh believe me I can't wait for my old ass to be back and my stamina, I've already got next summers race schedule all figured out lol.

Ttc5- holy crap girl, wth? Fx everything straightens out soon.

Bec- I do believe she did say that and fwiw I never layed of the diet, I skipped bread in the 2ww but that was it. Make the diet simpler, I ate meat with veg or meat with fruit. The more stressful you make it the harder it'll be to stay with it.

It's official ladies, third trimester for me!!

Woohoo, 3rd trimester! Bub will be here in no time :)

I had the most funniest and strangest dream ever last night (think it is from chatting to all you ladies too much )

Dreamt that I moved to America and went to a beach. It was so strange, it was HUGE with lots of clear, crashing, frothy white waves and water and was like a beach/pool in one! Anyway so there were these huge gorillas EVERYWHERE like the ones from the Cadbury add if anyone has seen that add? (I will try and find it on You Tube lol) they were allll over the beach hahahaha the weather so was lovely and sunny and hot and I just loved it, LOL.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TnzFRV1LwIo << that is the add!

Ive only had weird dreams since being pregnant especially in the first 3 weeks.
Hope you get a bfp.
