Kris - how did you go today?!
It's a girl!!! Still in shock cos we were thinking it was a boy. Oh well she's healthy and that's the main thing. My placenta is too low, only 1cm from my cervix so they need to recheck that but everything else is fine. I don't want anyone to worry their sway might not work, I didn't give it 100%, I wasn't even planning on trying that month plus I think my donor has something to do with it. He is a vegetarian so his diet could have come into it, I doubt he has much testosterone and he is so thin it's not funny. So yeah that might have effected the out come.
Congratulations guys!! Now for you to go and shop for girl things hey!!! I bet Sarah is stoked, she wanted a little girl, hey? Can I add you to our tally?
Thanks girl, yes Sarah wanted a girl but for my sake she wanted it to be a boy. We're just glad we got pregnant at all and are expecting a daughter that is healthy. I will go through our baby boxes in a few days to see what I have and don't have.....all I bought for so long was boy stuff! My sister has an 18 month old girl and 5 month old girl so she gave me a lot of their stuff. She's happy it's a girl too, our girls will be close cousins so that's nice. Sure you can add me to the tally.Quote:

Heya WP! So sorry you are so under the weather. I am the same way and get sick easily when pg. I hope you can find some relief soon! Do you have a scan or 1st appt coming up soon?Quote:

TTC5, your DH must be in his 20s still, they don't do that sort of stuff when they near 40, LOL! (release all the damn time that is...) I told my DH that we are just going to dtd every other day starting now (I'm CD6) and I am sure there will be a night or two that I have to wrangle it out of him and put on some sexy panties or something. But hey, just wait and see what happens, I think you had good timing! And you guys, please don't mind that psychic's readings.....as much as I think they are lovely and also believe that some do have psychic powers, they are also wrong sometimes. And I am sure a LOT of them are fakes also.
Bec, how'd you go over the weekend?
Congratulations Kris...your little girl will be so thrilled to have close cousins..who can grow up together like friends... are you doing OK as you were swaying for boy?
Congrats, Kris! Little girls are so much fun!
I am CD 7 and we are going to continue to try again. I went to the dr for my annual physical and to talk to her about our ttc problems (VERY low temperatures, ttc 6 months to no avail) and she checked my thyroid and hormone levels and everything looks good - yay! We're not very strictly on the diet, but are going to jump back on it in the next day or so. DH is so good with the diet, but he's so sick of it, especially bc he loves his coffee when it's cold! I am taking a prenatal plus Flax oil, fish oil, D3, and folic acid. I do drink whole milk (sorry IG fans, but my SIL got her boy with lots of whole milk), but try to stay away from the sugar and eat lots of potassium. Here's hoping it works this month!! =)

We have our own doppler, so I we are checking for a h/b tonight and I will probably wait until after Christmas to go to the midwife, unless I can not shack this cold. I normally have uneventful pregnancies and would just rather wait.....who knows I may get a wild hair and have to see the baby!!!
Congrats Kris on the baby girl!!! Any pics?
Great to read all the attempts going on, GL ladies!!!
Congrats Kris! You will love your little girl. I always wanted boys, but my first was a girl, and I was surprised at how much I enjoyed girl stuff (I am a total tomboy). :)Quote:

Bec- good for you! Pinpointing O is the worst part of all this and wil help you get the timing you're looking for! If you've got it when you poop you've probably got way more cm then you realize! Tmi but I had a bunch coming out but dh said I had tons at my cervix.
Kris- congrats on your healthy baby girl!!
Hobber- my dh too! He's 34 and asking him to lay off for 4 days was akin to spouse abuse lol
He is 28 :)Quote:

The effect of Daylight Saving Time (DST) on your temperature is usually limited to the day of the change because you adjust quite quickly. In addition, the exact effect depends strongly on your own metabolism. Some people will see no effect at all while others will see a slight change (increase or decrease). Because in general having one temperature slightly off will not change your chart interpretation, Fertility Friend's recommendation is to record your temperature as usual without correcting it in any manner. We recommend that you keep taking the temp at the same time. If you took it at 6 in the morning before the change, then take it at 6 in the morning after the change.
Here are a few photos from yesterday. Still in shock this morning, it's weird even saying her instead of it. Sarah seems fine with it, she's working on names but I'm not even thinking about that right now.
awwww hello baby girl :)
Hey Kris, do you feel you have some GD or just in shock cos you were so not expecting a girl?
She is so cute!!
Yeah I am disappointed to a degree, I think because this is my only baby and I wanted it to be a boy. The severe morning sickness should have told me it was a girl, but the slower heart rate had people saying it was a boy. I know you can't count on either of those to be 100% accurate but I still thought I had a good chance of a boy. I don't think my timing was good though. I wasn't tracking my ovulation cos my donor was away and I wasn't going to try and I think I ovulated the night before I did the first insemination so like 24 hours after.Quote:

kris- omg that baby is sooooo super cute! Look at her 2 little hands together and snuggling up next to you awwww!
ttc5-I don't know ...I would say you O'd on cd 16? not sure
Hi Hopeful! Glad that your tests came back ok! I know how frustrating it is to ttc for a while with no result. You guys are doing a great job though, and I think you are wise to keep on the diet and supps, because you never know! Also wise to drink whole milk, we totally do that. Did your doctor say anything else or want any other tests? I don't think you are over 35, so I know they don't start worrying until it's been 12 months. And you really shouldn't worry!Quote:

I have this fantasy of never going to the doctor and such and just having a baby with a midwife, which I may end up doing (although the midwife here will see me throughout the pregnancy). That is so cool! Of course, we all would love to know what you end up having sooner than later, LOL!Quote:

Glad you are still hanging around and feel better soon! XXOO
REALLY? Maybe mine does too and I just don't know it, LOL. How do you know? Sorry to be TMI....I am kinda curious if mine does, because I am always accusing him of having zero sex drive, although he did surprise me last night. We've only been together for 3 years now, and my DH is pretty private about that stuff. The whole semen analysis thing was kinda awkward for us.Quote:
