Thanks OOTB, but looks like AF is here. Saddened and heartbroken, but I will get over it. I have for over a year and a half, and you would think I would be used to it by now LOL.Quote:

I know what you mean about making 2 dinners every night. I'm a SAHM, but I still find it overwhelming at times. It was such a relief after I got my last BFP to be able to start making only one meal a night again!
Sorry KD that you are feeling so discouraged. It is really hard to do on top of all the other things in life. I find that I eat the same things everyday which is really boring but at least less stressful. Good luck and kup!
ootb-i hope it is implantation spotting and not af, if not, 2012 will be here soon and I'll be there with you! What day post O are you?
How about you Aurora and mocha?
I agree! MY stand-by is pasta with sauteed veggies and parmesan. I find it tasty and filling, and I can have it on my plate in 10-15 minutes. Sometimes I like to think outside the box and come up with more original ideas, but honestly, I often eat that same dinner about 4-5 times a week.Quote:

I'm so thankful we live across the country from them as I think I WOULD kill her if I had to see her more than 2-3 times a year. A week is a LONG time to be here - I'm counting the minutes until we can go home.
Hi girls... Jumping in here! Now thinking I should have been like Amari and aborted out attempt this month :( I am now 1dpo and way went over calories last night- yes the night I ovulated!! Although think I ovulated during the day, we DTD during the morning. I had only started the LE diet about 2 weeks ago when joining on here- I had lost about 2kgs in that time (am slim anyway so prob can't lose too much more). Prior to this I had been on Ingender and just doing the high calc, mag and low sodium, pottas. Have been doing that for prob 3 months now. I spose I have sort of been doing both in the last few weeks. I checked my PH throughout yest and today and still very low so am happy with that part (prior to me swaying my Ph was very high so prob was when we had boys). I am also on supps- calc, mag, virtex, cranberry and started taking saw palmetto leading up to O. Hubby also abstained for 10 or so days (complete opposite to what we did with boys). So only DTD morning of O. Used represh 3 days before O and half a tube day before O. Used sylk when bding. I had a vinegar douche also but decided against it at the last minute because our last 2 attempts haven't worked so starting to drop things off to increase chances of pregnancy. We were trying cut off and have been getting closer to O with only one attempt. I am just hoping that IF this has worked this time then my diet and Ph is sooo different to when I got pg with my boys then maybe everything will be okay. Oh also have been drinking a heap load of pepp tea and caff free diet coke. Ahhhhhh... anyway just had to vent that and hope I haven't stuffed it all up :(
Oh was also a new moon too :)
Everyone else so dedicated! Keep it up and fingers crossed for some bfps- and pink ones at that!!
sally I wouldn't worry about it especially if on the whole you're losing weight
1dpo here too
quite a lot of us pink swayers have OVed around the new moon this cycle haven't we?
KD I know just what you mean. I believe God is in control no matter what, so we are limited on our influence on the situation. I do though also believe he wants to see our dedication to a dream at times before answering our prayers. In my mind thats how I see this whole thing i guess, like sometimes we are given the tools by him to make our own dreams come true, we just have to be willing to put in the work for it to come to pass. We cant control what kind of baby he ultimately blesses us with, but we can control our biology with the intelligence and tools he has given us and so I dont see the harm personally since all things come thru him anyhow. So this diet and supplements, all this trying to catch lightening in a bottle we are doing... it is just us putting in our half of the work to make our dreams come true. I believe we serve a forgiving, loving and just God and I know he values each one of us and hears our prayers, and doesnt punish us or hold a grudge. Id just suggest you pray about it and ask God to guide your path and if you believe that means just DTD and let the rest go, welp so be it!! I pray you will find the clarity of mind you are looking for (along with a BFP! :wink: )Quote:

at 4dpo I wouldn't worry about it - the conception will have already happened!
yeah i suppose so, for better or worse! lol... this was just my very first cycle since i had my mirena removed so while i would be THRILLED to have a BFP waiting for me on the 7th, I would kinda like another try at this swaying pink thing too... only time shall tell!Quote:
