Exciting Queen!
Fx for you tarasue :)
Wishing, I've had my temps drop mid LP many a time, often over days, before going back up. As long as you're well above cover line I wouldn't worry.
Rosie, I am so, so happy for you. Finally!
XX, hugs! I know you'll get that 3rd child, and very likely a daughter, too.
Maiden just letting you know that I am doing IF. Been doing it for 5 days, and have lost 2-3 lbs already. I don't fast completely though on my fast days. I have 300-400 calories. It is going good so far!
Junie, when do you normally O around?
mommymachine, that's great! For me (I don't have much to lose), I lose the most the first 3 weeks, about 3lbs per week. After that I don't losè any more weight, though I may still lose inches off measurements. Though again, that was on a high fat diet. I know I've lost weight but have been avoiding weighing and measuring as that tends to get obsessive for me. For those TTC or to maintain but not lose weight, eating some on fasting days is probably ideal. Though I might try to fast completely one day a week, just bc it sends such a strong signal. But only if you feel up to it, which you may not ever on the LE.
I just realized I've been doing IF for over a month! No wonder I'm so hungry lately on my fasting days.
Maiden- I can't believe you're able to fast, I don't think I could. According to FF and past cycles I should O on CD16 and I'm on CD9, although of course the m/c could push things back. I always have lots of great CM so I hope that will still be a reliable sign for me. What day do you think you'll O?

I am on CD 9 too Junie! Although I think this is your cycle! I am working on accepting that I may not have anymore children. Today is a better day for me. I would say about 85% of the time I am fine with just my two boys. It is just the other 15% that is hard for me at times. The acupuncture is going well, but I am working on making peace and finding happiness with the way things are.Quote:

Junie, I do ease into it. But I honestly find eating nothing often is easier than only eating a little. On fasting days I try not to think about food at all. It is definitely way easier than counting calories!
I usually O around CD18. In the past, the month I stopped Vitex O was delayed, but I'm hoping the soy iso will cause me to O earlier, at least enough so that O isn't delayed. I'm a day behind on CD8. I hope your CM continuee to be a reliable predictor of O - mine definitely won't be this month. But my CBAD works very nicely.
Quick question for you girls... Do you still drink coke zero, diet coke or coffee during your 2ww?
I'm starting to feel depressed... I had a positive opk test on Thursday CD 13 so we BD that night... But no proper temperature shift since so I haven't ovulated. I'm now CD 15. How long does it usually take after a positive Opk before you ovulate?
I can see why I have 2 boys so far. I'm so impatient. It's so easy to say let's just BD as much as possible just you catch an egg 😐

I drink decaf coffee and caffeine free diet coke during the 2ww, but I normally drink these. I just drink my usual amount- 2-3 cups decaf coffee per day and one caffeine free diet coke about 2-4 times a week.
FX your temp rises soon- hope you catch the egg!

Fingers crossed we all catch an egg this or within the next few months xx

XX- Your attitude is so positive and you are still so young that it is literally impossible for me to imagine you not having a third. I'm not sure why it is taking so long but I 100% believe you will have another baby and hopefully a girl.
Maiden- I guess I could see not eating at all almost being easier. I get migraines if I don't eat so not something I will be testing out anytime soon :) I hope the soy works to keep O from pushing back.
Sunbuny- Until I get a positive pregnancy test I don't change any of my eating/drinking habits.
Still no spotting! And I have a cold and feel awful which normally would suck but I'm sure it helps sway pink. We're on vacation and I am eating pretty normally but feel fine about it. While I would love a girl I'm just not ready to change too much again yet but probably will feel differently after we get home and I have my first AF.
