Heavens TTC5, glad to hear sis seems to be doing better ... FX she is well soon; sounds as though you still have your concerns for her. Hugs!

Jane how frustrating! Did you DTD last night?! With 4 days abstain that would be just perfect timing it seems. I had a short surge the cycle I got pg. Only 1 +OPK (I do smileys too) at 2pm, and we DTD about 8 hours after I got it. I didn't test again that night but it was neg the next am.

WP I love camping and I'm so envious of your trip! We are going in November when it will hopefully have dropped into the 80's, LOL. I have still been exercising. I do light weights and mostly walking now, every now and then I might run a mile but for the most part I walk or do the elliptical machine. I ran through my other pregnancies (like up until 39 weeks!) but since I quit running to sway boy I just haven't felt like running this time! Exercise is totally my stress release though.

Jen this is like Christmas Eve!!!!

Lola what're the OPKs doing?

Kris I wouldn't be able to wait on Sarah either! Find out and don't tell her ;)

Re: my boy diet weight gain (I did update my sway with this too) I did the boy diet 9 months. BUT ... when I was "girl" diet I was still eating 2500 calories a day at least, but loads of it, literally half of it, was sugar... candy, etc. And I ran 40-60 miles a week so I just burned everything off. When I started the boy diet I dropped the exercise to 10 miles a week, plus 3x a week weight training, and kept my intake around 2200-2500 but it was all good, nutrient rich foods. I gained about 5 lbs (I think due to the loss of so much cardio) and then the last 3-4 weeks before our attempt I really amped up my food intake to gain another 2. Since the BFP I've gained about 7lbs.

jane-we O after the +opk so I would go try again! FX

So DH said we do 1 more try next month.But we don't need to anyway because I already have it in there he said...Ok...haha..

3PNB, yep, I'm losing my mind, lol. FRIDAY, can't wait for FRIDAY!!!!!! I can't believe you are halfway there already!

Hobb, I've already stopped actually taking the Clomid this month (you only take 5 pills from CD3-7), but I think I'm going to just go natural from now on.

Another timing question now: I just got a big fat +opk....although it was darn near positive last night, it is way way darker than the control line today. I bet I will ovulate sometime tomorrow morning, maybe tonight, I don't know since I'm taking this estrogen....I have a feeling it's making me O differently, maybe sooner or stronger, I can't tell yet. I'm worried that if we dtd tomorrow night, I will have missed the egg.....what do you guys think, dtd tonight and tomorrow night and pool me with sperm, even if it's only a few million, lol, or wait till tomorrow night?

I'm late seeing this - what did you decide to do?

She's been in the 80th to 90th percentile at her other checks but we haven't had her four month appt yet. Usually mine are big the first 6 months then slim down some!
