Here with you mydream!!!! Lets hope we get our dreams this month!!!!
Yes Yes! We will be trying next week hopefully if ovulation isn't delayed or early!
Yay! Our try is technically in April, but I'll be biting my nails for the first two weeks of May, so count me in!
Count me in!!
My attempt may fall at the far end of May, with how my cycles have been going... but hooray! So glad to be back and trying again after my big fail (don't think I ovulated as my period ended up being MIA after all was said and done!)
I've been on the diet (and getting better... was REALLY rusty!) for a couple weeks now. I've gone from 118 back down to 116, so progress is happening. I just don't want to lose weight as rapidly as last time (went from around where I am now to 103lbs!!!), which while I felt I looked great (never weighed that little in my adult life), it freaked my body out and messed up my whole sway last time! I don't want that to happen. I want to do what it takes whilst still remaining healthy for my cycle and sustaining a pregnancy.
I just want to get pregnant... so whether we have another boy or girl, we're happy. We have a boy name picked out and our girl's name, so we're ready for whoever is next in our family. Fingers crossed I can get it first month trying, because then I can take off on maternity leave around the time I am flying home for Christmas and can stay there a little longer. :P :)
Just wanted to wish you all GL for May! Suregena, good to see you back...hope your body cooperates.
We'll see! I hope so, fingers crossed. I've got digital OPKs this time, etcetera... so, I feel I should be good. I hope.
And I'm temping this time, too.
Good Luck to everyone
Suregena- I know that there was a time in my life (not when I was on LE diet) where I lost so much weight and so rapidly, my body was not responding well at all. I stopped ovulating, was getting AF like every 19 days. Slow and steady will hopefully win the race this time.
I think I may be ovulating in the next couple of days and gearing up to dtd!!!
I'm here too ladies!!! I have a good feeling about May! SO many of us have been through sooooo much...
Couldn't agree more. Come on MAY!!! Let this be it for us!!!!Quote:

So, I suppose a pretty relaxed sway as far as welcoming the little guys :) Wish me luck!
Good luck to everyone else as well! FX this is everyone's month!
Ribbons- good luck! Sounds like a great attempt
My dream- when should you O?
I am expecting to in about 3 weeks. Hoping AF shows around may 6th!
Hey ladies, mind if I join in too?
This is my first month, and am due to O on either sunday or monday. Have not decided when I will have my actual attemp and how many, was going to go for one attempt but really wanna get pg this month. i have always gotten pg very easily in the past, 2 boys and 2 mc, very excited.
Any last min tips and tricks are more than welcome!
That's about when I'm expecting my AF!Quote:

So we already started to dtd..so who knows what will happen now. I am feeling depressed this AM :(
I'm right there with you, mydream. 14dpo today and another BFN. I was really hoping this was my month, as I had some slight brown spotting around 8 and 9dpo ... thought that was implantation bleeding. But my temps have been quite low this month ... even my coverline is about .2 degrees lower than usual ... and my post-O temps have very rarely nudged above 98 degrees at all. And this is with me taking saw palmetto AF-O. I'm also bummed that two of the "girl months" have been fails for me and there is only one more left. :(Quote:

Right before I woke up to test, I dreamed I had just delivered our third boy. We're definitely stopping at three kids, so even though I loved him in the dream, I was thinking about how crazy life was going to get and why didn't I stop at two? I know that in real life I'd overall rather have a third boy than no baby at all -- but the newborn stage is really hard and life would be simpler with just two kids.
This is a crummy way to start a Monday. I'm feeling pretty discouraged.
Ribbons, congrats on getting those first attempts in. Hopefully the first month will be your time!
Suregena, welcome back -- I remember your troubles a few months back with The World's Longest Cycle -- :) -- hopefully this time around, those ornery eggs won't be so stubborn!
Hopeanddream and my dream, it seems like the three of us have been on these TTC forums for awhile now. Surely it's our time coming up, right?
Kraizy, I have got to be more like you and get back to being a warrior of faith. Darn these pity parties I have!!
I was wondering what happened to you dramabird, I haven't seen you around in a week or so... so sorry for the BFN :( Don't worry about the girl month stuff!! Don't let it stress you out. I had a really hard time with it too - I was kicking myself for not starting the diet sooner b/c I missed out on March and April. But I've looked at a lot of sways and yes, spring is great for girls, but summer isn't half-bad either! It seems to be FALL that you want to avoid. FX this is your month, and if it isn't, don't worry too much about it!! :HH:
Hi ladies! I am going to give this one more go, I am cd4... But literally decided 2 days ago! So my stellar diet etc are out the window! But I thought I was ok not getting preggers but was terribly sad after the bfn so will give it one more shot although it will have to be way more laid back as I have screwed up the diet and I think I have to "not be trying" to actually get prwgnant!! So I am not allowed on this site as it keeps my mind on it too much as lovely as everyone is here! So if u see me post b4 a bfp/bfn tell me to go away lol!
Just wanted to be in here before I come back with either good or bad news!! Good luck everyone!! You all have been waiting long enough!!!l
Good luck coco!! Now go relax :)
My poor partener does not know what has hit him! For the past year my sex drive has been very low we wouldhonestly only have sex once or twice a fortnight. Now for the past few days we have been once sometimes twice a day! We are doing FR and I am dues to O on monday or round abouts, now my problem is he worked all day yesterday and by the time he came home i was asleep so we missed yesterday altogether, woke up this morning and tried but the poor bugger couldnt release, will try again tonight, but what do I do as he has missed yesterday and this morning and not sure if we can catch up in time? Thoughts please???
Hi ladies, my first attempt is supposed to be in about 11 days. I am on CD 5 (last day of AF). I am a lil bummed though (I know you will think I am nuts) because I just found out that there are new zodiac signs for 2012? so IF I conceive in May, then baby would be due Feb 4th (of course, if it's full term), which in turn is an aquarias baby and not capricorn. am I freaken crazy for thinking this way and just stressing for no reason. another thing bugging me is that I think I may be ovulating on full moon which is boy ..I guess I really need to stop reading and putting my belief in weird things. soweee..
Hi everyone, can I please join too? I think our attempt will be towards the end of May as my O keeps getting later and later!! Have been meaning to start for a couple of months but havent been able to stick to the diet until now. Only have one more girl month so am now worried about it already!!! Good luck everyone xxx
You'll prob. have an Aquarius even if you conceive today, unless you're early. If I get pg this cycle (I O tomorrow), that's what I'll be having... Aquarius is a great sign, I've never met an Aquarius I didn't like :)Quote:

Watch out - if you wait you may have an Aries, and BELIEVE me, those are a challenge - ESPECIALLY the girls! :)
Hehe..you are right. my bro and best friend are Aries. very challenging. You know why i'm so anal about the signs, because my boys who are scorpio and taurus, are most compatible with capricorn and pisces.
so you think it's best to stick w/ the old signs? not the revised 2012 signs?
I am still here as well - month 8 TTC and just want to be pregnant now! I had my first bleed after sex last night in my life and now am pretty sure I have a cervical erosion - just posted another thread for advice but pretty pissed off as don't want to delay any more than I have to! Anyway, you can't have a pity party on day 1 of the month so I will think pink and positive!
FYI - DS1 is an aquarius (very stuborn, strong willed and challenging) DS2 is an Aries (very chilled, calm and caring) xx
Where did you find the info on the new signs? I looked up signs for 2011 and 2013 and they seem to have the same dates.
Kiessse- I would try to get dh to release before you have another attempt. Have him release outside you then later have an attempt.
I know nothing about the signs. Never even looked up what my own kids are! I feel like you are who u are despite the sign you are. Some fit the generalization some don't. We have enough to worry about with swaying signs and moons we can't control so don't even get worked up. Bc getting worked up WILL sway and this other stuff won't!!
Drama- it has been quite awhile for a few of us, your right. I can't believe how long it's been and everything that has happened. I've had more time waiting skipping months bc of sickness with my crohns then actual attempts. Then of course the chemical. Enough already! May is it for sure ;)
Yay! A :) OPK!!!
OH Please let this be it for me... For everyone who has been trying for so long and for those just starting out !! Prayers!
Hopeanddream we havnt attempted yet, i planning on having 1st attempt on Sat nite. Just that we are doing fr and with him missing a day need to make it up. All good not going to stress over it. What is meant to be will be.
Ribbons, it's one of the apps on my phone. the new sign is called 'ophiachus' or something like that.Quote:

Hi ladies, many blessings to you all! Dear Lord, please watch over us all that are still trying for our pink dreams! AMEN!
For me, this is probably my last Clomid cycle since my OB wants me to see an RE and I just cannot afford it. I have stopped temping or I am trying not to temp. I have not so far, but I feel like I should be LOL!!
I know I should O by the weekend, so we have already started our attempts, mainly in the am with Preseed. I am so hopeful to bring home a pink bundle in January.
I am praying rooting and cheering you all on! :cheerteam:
oh Kraizy...I am sooooo praying for you hun. I have a friend who ..the month after she stopped clomid she got pregnant...
So for me, I dtd Saturday night, Sunday night, Monday night. Monday night was when I got a :) on OPK. This AM no :) on OPK, so my question is...should I dtd one more time tonight?
yep I say for good measure, DTD again!!Quote:
