The ebola virus scares the crap out of me!!
Thanks for the tips. I asked her about the ayurvedic herb shatavari in the chat box and she says no, not enough research. I found a great sticky thread in the ttc girl forum on raising progesterone through diet and learned B6 can sway boy. Hooray! I've been feeling like I was cheating by taking it, so I was taking low doses from af to o, but now I'm going to go for it! Hopefully this and vitamin C will get me a bfp. If my cycle is still wacky next month, I've ordered some vitex, but I will try the increased B6 and C route this cycle.
Regarding ebola, it just shows how dangerous bad hospitals are. There were 2 or 3 hospitals that treated patients just fine. Now this one in Texas totally messed up, sent the sick guy home, exposed the workers, etc. and things are a mess. It's like anything else, there are good and bad options. I just hope the good hospitals and sensible people outweigh the bad and ignorant.
A shout out of support for you mamas with 6 and 3 and anything more than 1 girl! I love my dd and taking her to ballet class seeing all the little girls dressed up. I'm so grateful we had a girl first! I love little girls. My longing for a boy isn't because I don't like girls, it's just that I feel our lives would be more complete and balanced with a little boy. I'm guessing you all probably feel the same way, that's why we're here.
Trueblue - Six girls! Wow, Jana's right - that really is incredible. And I like what you said, sageviolet. Girls are fantastic. I adore my daughter with all of my heart.
So I'm having a weird experience... I tested today using my new WONDFO opks and I got a positive. So I used my Clearblue and got a peak, stady smiley. I'm on CD8. BUT...Apparently this might be a false positive. I keep getting positive results, but Atomic thought this might not be the real thing. Has this happened to any of you?
Tm29- I would make some attempts!
Tm what's your cm and cp looking like?
Yes, I've had a couple of cycles where I got a positive and I didn't actually ovulate. It's just one of those things that happens every now and then.
Thanks Jana, yogi and Boysway - I really appreciate it. We BD twice yesterday just in case - you're right Jana! - but we apparently need to be careful to only BD once today because if it is a false pos and I O later this week, then we'll end up having done a compressed version of FR!
Yogi - my cm is kind of ewcm, but it's never VERY stretchy and ew-ish - there's just more or less cm/moisture if you see what I mean. I don't know about cp. Will find out what it's meant to be like and check. That's a good idea.
This has added another layer of stress! I actually felt really down yesterday after the huge relief of getting a +opk. Weird anti-climax (no pun intended). DH finds that preseed really reduces sensation so it all takes ages and is tiring and TBH the anxiety over the sway and ttc removes ALL romance/pleasure.
But of course the extra pounds and all the stress will all be so, so worth it for a bfp.
Having 6 girls really is fantastic :) they are all so different and I wouldn't swap them for anything in the world.
:D
