Oh thanks KD! :heart:
Yeah I dont know why, but right now I am feeling certain that I will hear girl on Friday, and I have this little voice in my warning me to not be so sure of that outcome, but I can't help it. I do feel very strongly it's a girl. If I'm wrong, I'm wrong, but I can't fight this deep gut feeling, and I'm not even going to try anymore. These are my last few days of not knowing and I'm going to try to enjoy them with positive thoughts :)
I think it is great that you have feeling about your pink dream coming true Friday. I would suggest have a big Mountain Dew beforehand LOL!! Want to make sure she shows her three lines perfectly. I have had one of my friends who is just devastated that the baby would not cooperate and she still does not know if it is a girl or not which is what she is wanting.
I'm actually somewhat caffiene intolerant...it would give me the jitters and make me really sick! Anything else that could get the baby moving and excited? Chocolate, juice you think? Mtn dew or any coke products or coffee are too much for me.
Kraisy- is AF still away? Hoping for you.
kd-how's it going today, hope af stays away..
hope-don't feel bad saying anything on here, that's what we are here for!
aurora-i can't believe it is this week already! can't wait to hear!
aurora I am the same way..I steer clear of caffiene for the most part so I am hoping it helps my girl sway. I am new here and just reading through. There is so much to reply to I will forget!!! So much to know!!!
Hi everyone...I would love to join you...We are ttc a girl after 4 boys...DH needed some convincing but we are a go. I am eating acidic foods, but not a specific diet as I love food..I am currently losing weight on Atkins and have added Organic milk and yogurt to the mix along with calcium and magnesium. Doing Zumba for cardio, no green tea (which I love), no potatos, tomatos or red meat..all of which I survive on, no wonder I have all boys. Doing a lime douche 30 minutes before with a pH of 3 and then finger tips of straight lime afterwards to keep pH down. Cut off of 3 days and O+ 12. This sure has taken some figuring.
AF is not here yet, but my temp is lower today, so I am thinking AF is coming soon. Thanks everyone for thinking of me. I am driving myself crazy emotionally trying to wrap my head around the fact that I am not pregnant once again this month.
auroara - I just made sure to eat a big breakfast with juice before my scan. I also drank copious amounts of water in the days leading up to the scan because I heard that helps you get a good one. I'm soooooo stalking you!
So my temp went up a little this morning, so it gave me hope and I tested BFN. AF is not here yet and with my temp going up, I am guessing that it the only reason I am keeping it together this morning, thinking maybe it's just too early, but in the back of my head FRER are so sensitive it really should be showing by now, so that is my start to the morning, how about yours?
Bless you all throughout your day, my the Lord watch over you and yours through all that you do, AMEN!
Kraizy, I have several friends that didn't get a + until after 14 dpo. one of my friends didn't get one until 19 dpo.. so it's still not over! praying for you today lady!
thanks so much nks, I am hoping and trying to be as optimistic as I can. I appreciate your info on your friends, it really helps me think, maybe just maybe...Quote:

Happymedium~ Welcome. Sounds like you have an IG sway all planned. Many on the site do things a bit different, but all are welcome!! No matter what you may choose..GOOD LUCK!! When are you planning on your first attempt?
Hope, not below, but close. I am as nervous as can be. I am feeling like my AF is coming. A little discomfort is going on, se we will see. Thanks for the encouragement!
When is AF due exactly? I still think the temps staying up is a good sign. :pray: for KD!!!!
And welcome Happy Medium!! I did a combo of some IG ideas with LE ideas and we'll see what the mish mash produced when I find out on Friday, lol.
Kraisy~ I literally felt I was getting AF totally thought it was over with DS1 and the symptoms stopped and BAM I was preg!!
auroara~ 2 days!!! Ahhhhh, can't wait
Well I think am normally 28 days so after today, I guess I would be late? FF says my average cycle length is 29, shortest is 20 and longest is 33, so I am not for sure really.Quote:

Amari,
Are you or were you taking a pill or cream for you progesterone?
Kraisy~ did you test this am?
No out of tests. That was my last FRER yesterday. I am just waiting for AF to get here. I am sure I am just late or that taking the Clomid days 3-7 instead of 5-9 has changed my cycle a bit. I have spent so much on HPTs only to be disappointed, I am to the point of just finding out if I am ever really late. If my longest cycle on FF is 33, then I would have a ways to go, if it's average of 29, then I guess tomorrow I would be officially late?Quote:

Just an update- I had a chemical. AF is here in fullllll force :(
I am doing ok..for the moment. Thanks for all you support. I am having immune testing done, in fact just had the bloods drawn. Although my HT and this chemical may be unrelated, I just need to know at this point. I spoke with my RE and he agrees. My bloodwork will come back in about 10 days.
I am totally going to try again this month. He said it was fine to. I just don't have time to waste..the clock is ticking. Good thing I didn't stop the diet...well, I cheated one day (the day I got a BFP I ate egg and cheese on a roll- yum!). I am going to up my protien, fruits and veggies this cycle, cut back on the carbs and continue to PRAY!
KD hoping af never comes!
I replied on the other thread I am so sorry. I'll be interested to hear what your blood work says and what it all means. Glad you will try again this month. I was so twisted about deciding partly because I cheated in the 2 week wait. So glad you didn't that was a huge lesson for me. I thought I was safe! Anyway good for you another attempt is just two weeks away!Quote:

KD- I was/am taking progesterone cream that you insert once a day called Crinone. My OB doesn't really believe it does anything, but I have a short lutesl phase and asked for it anyway.
Amari,
I am glad you got the progesterone even if you doc does not believe in it. I believe in it 100% although I had to take the jelly like troches that you put under your tongue and they have to dissolve for the first 12 weeks of my first two pregnancies.
Still no AF and I keep wondering if I am willing it not to come or something. My kraizy brain is playing tricks on me LOL!
MyDream, I am so sorry. It's so hard when we get so close, but I have to believe there is a reason for everything. My doctor said it was a great sign that egg & sperm are meeting....and if we are patient it should happen with some time. Plus, conception after a chemical is suppose to sway pink :) I'm glad you are going to keep trying and hope it will work this next cycle for you!! Also, good that you are doing the bloodwork!! I'm thinking of you and hope you are ok...
Meanwhile...I have ZERO symptoms this month....so just waiting for AF to arrive next week. Another cycle bites the dust! ARGH!
ILindGurl, some have no symptoms at all from what I have read, so don't count yourself out until AF shows. What cd and dpo are you? when do you expect not to get your AF?
thanks, kraizydaizy...I know because I didn't have any symptoms with DS1 (then again, I never thought I'd get pregnant so fast so I wasn't really paying attention), with #2 I didn't have any either except I vaguely remember maybe thinking my nipples looked darker (sorry for TMI, LOL). But with my chemicals, I knew I was pregnant...vivid dreams, nausea, metallic taste in my mouth, very tired and fell asleep watching tv a few nights early...I just felt it for some weird reason. This month, nothing. Not even a twinge, LOL. So, it's a bust. Same thing happened in Feb, the month following my chemical pregnancy in January. I guess you're right, and you never know...but my gut says nothing happened. I didn't do any testing this month bec I just wanted to relax and enjoy, so just based on CM I would predict I am 6dpo, maybe 7dpo. FF predicts April 26th and 27th for AF to arrive. I have stopped swaying, but I will say this if we did conceive (which I really really doubt based on no symptoms at all) then it's all boy...I had 9 days (NINE!) with EWCM...crazy! LOL.
Hi ladies ive been taking a break from the internet and temping just trying to relax and hope it helps i think im 6 or 7 dpo but could be wrong as i only used opk this time,i took a frer this morning and i could see as it was changing a white line where the positive would be,it sounds wierd maybe thats the first time i actually watched it changing? then now i cant really see anything ,it plays tricks on you though in the right light i can see sort of something then it goes away? Im reading into nothing probably..
And i see congratulations:celebrate::running::cheer: AMARI !!!sOOO HAPPY FOR YOU, did you use the preseed in the end and guaffenisen or just one?
I think if this month doesnt work for me im stopping the clomid it will be my third time and the last time i was way to hormonal and had a huge fight with dh:hair:,so i wont do it again
Sorry if i missed any congrats i just skimmed through as i dont have time to read all the posts :)
Temp is way below cover-line today and spotting, so I am out I think that AF is here today.
Many blessings on those still waiting on their BFP this month!
Aw sorry Kraizydaizy :LotsofLove:
Sorry, Kd. Ugh.
Sweetsister-glad you took a break from temping, did it help relax you? I ended up using preseed only. Did you use it too?
Kraisy- so sorry! Here's to may!
Sweetsister- Great to have you back. I always think I should take a break from the internet and never seem to be able. Last month I had a chemical. Skipping April. Will get AF early may and will attempts again!
Hi ladies. It's been crazy the past week and a half at my job, so I haven't been able to come online much.
MyDream, I'm so sorry about the chemical. Boy, having pg tests that are so sensitive is a mixed blessing these days ... it's great to hear early good news, but it's discouraging to have a mc that you would never have known about otherwise. But, dang it, May will be your month!!
KD, having AF show up stinks. :p But for some reason, I feel less discouraged at the beginning of my period than I do mid-2ww. I guess because, once AF arrives, you know you're only about two weeks from your next attempt. FX for May, for you, too!!
I can't wait to hear from Auroara ... she should be updating any time now, right?
You ladies are in my prayers!!
As for me right now, I'm 4dpo. We did FR this time instead of abstaining, with DH releasing and discarding twice a day. We got four attempts in: O-3 (p.m.), O-2 (p.m.), O-1 (p.m.) and and O (a.m.). I had crazy O pains on the day of ovulation itself and on O-2 days ... some discomfort on the right side both days, but definitely the most intense pains on the left side both days.
I used Zyrtec for a few days but no Benadryl ... and actually, I didn't really spot any EWCM this month, which is unusual for me. I also used RepHresh once, the evening of our O-3 attempt (a few hours after, so those spermies were up and gone). I resisted the urge to use it earlier during the next 72 hours, as that may have been what made last month fail. So by our O day attempt, it had been 60-some hours since RepHresh. *shrug*
I'm still not food journaling. It feels kind of weird not knowing where my levels are (sodium, in particular, is the area where I might be going over some days), but it also helps keep away the desperation of "I can't do this diet anymore!" because all of the recording and math was driving me nuts. I'm sure I'm staying below 40 g on protein, hopefully below 60 g of fat on most, if not all, days. Don't know on calories, but my weight is staying consistent (today I was 96.4 lbs.), so I must not be doing too badly on that.
It would be so great if this month was the one. I'll be testing on April 30 ... I'd sure take any prayers for a big fat pink positive!! :pray:
I'm sure some already saw it on other posts, but just wanted to offically update the baby's a girl!!! Really healthy and they said she had good "fluid" :rofl: She's perfect and if I can figure out how to post pics, I'll post some pics of the U/S!
