Wow bluebonnet! That's amazing! Congrats to you! Enjoy your pregnancy.
3boys- we are pretty close I'm 6 dpo today. I had light cramping yesterday and it was making me think AF. I feel like 5 dpo would really be too soon to be feeling anything. 2 WW is killer. I started out feeling really positive and high hopes of being pregnant Almost through week 1 I'm already losing hope. Ugh.
Fingers crossed for every one in the 2 ww! And good luck to everyone waiting for O and/or BD!
Tarasue- I hope you O soon.
Your post made me so sad. Those must be horrible haunting thoughts for you. Sorry you're feeling bad. Just wondering if you had a counselor to talk to? Even if it was just once or twice. Or what if you did something special like planted a tree for George. A way to turn the sadness into something more positive. I'm not saying you need to move on or not be sad and mourn. I can't imagine having those intense thoughts and that stress. I just want to hug you. I just feel like his short presence with you must be paving the way for something you maybe can't even imagine yet. It could be something amazing. Xoxo
Since I am still BFing, I am just going to fast according to the catholic guidelines during lent. Instead of just fasting on Fridays and Holy days, I'll fast everyday. I used to do that before I had kids- I think that will be better for me than IF right now. I'll be having two small meals that don't add up to one full meal and one full meal a day- 1200-1400 calories a day. I may have to increase if I lose too much. I will completely fast on Fridays and on Holy days though. When I did this before having kids, I lost 10-12lbs during lent!i have about 5-8lbs I could lose without effecting ovulation now, maybe not since I am SO lean. My body fat is the lowest it has ever been at 16-17%! I just have to watch that- it has already taken me a long time to conceive, and I don't want to throw gas on a fire! I will definitely have to keep an eye on things.
FX for ladies waiting to test- BFP and O! CD7 for me....time marches on!

Bluebonnet- Thanks for your input! I'm so so SO happy everything worked out how it did for you :)
QueenB- The whole first trimester I felt so awful that we barely had sex it has probably been almost a month now and we really never go that long. My hormones are actually making me quite in the mood which is hard because I am still spotting. I think my body just wants me to get pregnant again LOL. I hope you feel better soon!
Tarasue- oh sweetie. I really feel for you. I so hope this is your month.
Maiden- I normally have longer cycles but don't know how this first one will be. Good luck this cycle!!
Emilee- Hang in there!! I'm hoping this is your cycle!

Positive?
Thanks Emileejane, a tree is a wonderful idea! I am a landscape designer with a degree in horticulture so a tree for my little angel is perfect!! What a beautiful idea! I don't have a counselor at this time, I was seeing someone about a year ago that just kept telling me I probably wouldn't be able to get pregnant because I was in an eating disorder rut..... Well, I got pregnant, but.....Quote:

Tarasue- Wow that is perfect! I'm sure you'll know the perfect tree when you see it!
Definitely DON'T go back to that counselor! Sounds like a jerk! You probably need counseling for the counseling you received. Call your OB and ask for names or contact a local birth/postpartum group or doula for names of counselors with special interest in birth. (If you so desire to find one).
I cannot tell if that opk is pos or not. Looks close if it's not. I'd BD! Good luck☆
If it were me, I'd BD! Then BD again in 3 days. FX and 🙏 for you!!!Quote:

YEs I think that is positive.
Emilee, it sounds as though we are close with our cycles! I'm 7dpo today and got another BFN, of course. It's still too early to be testing but I can't help myself! My nipples are still sore, although more achy today, not as sharp when I touch them. My back aches and my headache is still there too. Not sure what to make of it all really. I feel pregnant for sure, but it also could be my body going into overdrive because this is my first cycle off the pill. I've fallen pregnant on my first cycle befor though, so anything could happen!
