I'm not sure if there is already a thread for Feb sorry if there is I couldn't see one.
I think I am going to skip the BSF this time and focus on lemon water and maybe some ural.
I really need to concentrate on my EWCM I am getting none :( The last 3-4 cycles I have noticed I am getting one small amount of EWCM. I thought that was normal but after reading about some people that have so much and it lasts a few days I am thinking that I should try to increase mine.
I am starting to get frustrated and am finding myself thinking oh stuff it lets just get pregnant, and not worrying about the swaying.
But I feel that if I do that and get another girl I will be upset with myself for not trying to get some more boy sides on my dice, does that make sense ?
Can anyone see this thread?
When I go to my threads I can see it, but when I go to the ttc a boy section I can't see it.
Yep, I can see it.
We usually don't start a new month until the actual month. Still got a little while to go til Feb :)
oh, sorry :(
Just thought since my attempt will be in Feb I would start a new thread for me and anyone planning to attempt in Feb.
So we can discuss what we are planning to do and when we are due to O etc
Would you like me to delete the thread and wait until Feb ?
Don't be sorry! And don't delete the thread either :)
I used plenty of pre seed this time too!!
Hey- I still posted on the January thread, but I see this one!
Can I start an April thread and chat to myself until April? The person who starts the thread usually get a BFP that month!! Can I please please please please please please please please please please please please please ?
LOL if it makes you happy Princess :P Mind you I have been starting them for months now and I have only just fallen lol.
I'm in the middle of my cycle right now and should be getting AF around Feb 7th or so and then we will offically be TTC. DH and I have started taking some supplements and changed our diet slightly. I'm still not certain on the whole aspect of how frequent to BD. I tend to get lots of ewcm (for like 4 or 5 days) and 2 or 3 days of +opks before O'ing. I know you want to try spacing out BDing so it's not every day.....but what about once ewcm shows up? Since we are just starting TTC we aren't desperate yet so we don't mind leaning more towards trying the whole timing thing....
Hi All
Just wondered if I can join you all.
A little bit about myself, I'm 37 been married for 8 years and have 3 gorgeous girls 7, 5 & 3. I was on the In-Gender forum since last August swaying for a boy. I got pregnant on our 1st attempt but unfortunately had a mmc @ 8 weeks on 23rd Dec2011. I've had one AF since my mmc.
I started back on the boy diet etc in late Dec and am hopefully ready for DTD thsi weekend if my body will ovulate! I seem to have lower temps this cycle but my ph seems lower which is a shame.
As the In Gender forum seems no longer I wonder if I can join you all??
Thanks
Strawbell
Welcome ladies ;)
Hi LBAM, sorry i didn't see this thread earlier, i would have come to keep you company. Skipping BSF is a good idea, really it only changes the ph of your vaggi and not up inside the uterus. For the last couple of months i was taking EPO everyday and found that i had tonns of EWCM. I dropped the EPO this cycle because they were so randomly long and short, and i have definatly noticed that i have very little EWCM, it is more watery and i did have to use pre seed this time. So when are you due to O? What are you going to do with timing this time?
Welcome Strawbell and Amber :)
Cinss, FX for you! How many attempts did you get in your fertile window?
So, the ultrasound showed a 20mm, 15mm and 13mm follicle, all on my right side. There is the potential that they all could ovulate but more than likely just the bigger one or two. I will trigger tonight and then O on Friday. We're going to DTD tonight and tomorrow night. So we'll have O-4, O-2 and O-1 attempts if all goes to plan :)
Bec - As luck would have it i did O-4, O-2, and O. I was finding it difficult to predict O because for me it is on a different CD each time, so thought DTD every second day would be our best bet. FF hasn't confirmed O yet, but i am pretty sure it was CD23. My Ovulation Chart
I think you O'd CD23 as well. Great BD pattern, it worked out perfectly.
Yeah! So glad to see a Feb thread! I am SO hoping this is the month for all of us!
Cinss, I think cd23 was it too! GL and hope the 2ww goes fast for you!
Bec, glad you saw some good follicles today!
Welcome, strawbell and amber! (had to do a double take when I saw bec say that bc my real name is amber too! ;)
And, omg, amber! I just noticed your dd's bday is the exact same as my ds! He was also born 12/29/06---how neat! What time? He was 6:31pm EST.
Good luck to you all and hope you all get your BFPs!
Welcome Amber and Strawbell :)
Thank you all for your replies Ladies, I appreciated :)
I'm thinking of booking a private gender scan for the next 2 week, when I'll be 16 weeks. I have a Dr. appt on Feb 21st and I will be 17 Weeks, I think the doctor will scheduled an ultrasound around 18weeks ..Long wait.
What do you all think? Should I book a private gender scan or wait?
YES!!! Go the private scan!!
Thank God January is over now...one month closer to April!!!
Yep get that scan LOL!
MFC - will you have to pay for the private scan? That first 20 weeks of pregnancy is ten times worse than the 2ww for sure.
I ma the world worst impatient person!! I really need to be induced into a coma after the attempt as I don't have to endure waiting for anything!!!
Feeling so frustrated, impatient and bored!!! LOL :hair:
I have planned out my whole sway...and all the big purchases I will need to make for baby. Planned who my new OB will be and where I will deliver...what tests I will have done and when I will go for my scans as they have the best equipment and provide video's of all scans and do 3D/4D.
Hell my whole life is planned and I just so wanna be pregnant NOW!! I might be able to talk DH into trying before April by bring up some of my work related reasons....just don't know if he will go for it. I can't possibly wait until April to start TTC!!! Dying here.....
Welcome to my world, POP! I've had 2 instances of actually putting that plan into motion also, but they were the lovely m/c. Well hey, you are at least being a high T kinda gal there, so that is good!
Welcome to the new ladies! I didn't know IG had gone down (for good?) but this is a WAYYYYY better site than that one, and we are a LOT nicer, laid back, and not judgmental at all. Good stuff.
Amber, I was going to say that you could try to dtd every other day....I'd do O-2 and then O for sure if I were you. Sounds like you have great ewcm and all, good for you!
MFC, DO IT! You know you are going to want to once 16 weeks rolls around. I'm so excited to hear what you have!
Bec, super stoked about the follie action there! FX this cycle!!!!!
I am trying the "don't even care anymore" thing this month and may not even take opks......only strategy I can think of now. Trying to book urologist appt for DH but the office has not called to confirm it yet. You have to book online. Jeez.
LBAM - FWIW I had almost no ewcm till I started taking fish oil and drinking 2-3 glasses of green tea a day.
I totally understand wanting to give your sway your all. With dd3 I was told about position and dh caffeine, when we heard girl I knew we blew it. I gave my last sway my all so I would know that if it was another girl I would have no regrets.
I agree that bsf does more harm then good unless you have tons of ewcm. I did one 30 minutes before my attempt and it turned things watery but by the time we dtd I had a ton again and didn't need any additional lubrication.
POP - start the thread get a bfp, if only it were that simple lol Keep in mind the longer your body has prepared the better your chances. I know it sucks but you can do it!
Amber - WELCOME!! I would worry less about timing and more about diet. Have you read the girl sway info? I read through how to sway pink, found where I was skewed the most, changed those habits and got my boy. GL and blue dust :)
Stewbell - WELCOME to you too!! So sorry about your mc, I've had two myself.
FWIW I got my guy with a pH of 5-5.5 and one bsf 30 minutes prior. if you've been on the IG diet read over the High Everything diet here, much better :)
MFC - is this you're first day here lol you know we are all going to say get the scan!!
Lola - Funny when we pretend we don't care huh Never really true and we'll all still obsess with you during the 2ww :) FX the dr calls back soon.
Well ladies here I am 8 days to go and losing my mind. I hate sitting here feeling like a time bomb while dh watches my every move. Poor guy's going to have a nervous breakdown waiting for me to go into labor lol The girls have started talking to my belly begging him to come out and play, here's hoping he wants to meet them as bad as they want to meet him.
Aha find it! You guys are not gonna get rid of me :rofl: Need to stalk everyone ....need to stalk...:p
Anyway I see talk about ewcm...you know what funny? I always had a lot and got my girls that way. Now when I was doing all that ttc blue , every time I ttc I go and have a lot less.
So maybe it's ok to ttc a boy with less ewcm if you got girls when you have a lot?:think:
Not sure...just thinking here. Now that Im back on my old ways I have lot's of it again.
Fab-you sure have to get a scan at 16 weeks!!! (more stalking for me yeyyy) I got one too with DD4 and they can tell you it's easy to see by then.
hmmm what else...
oh PP-why do you have to wait until April to ttc if you are so ready now?
good luck to all and welcome everyone (well Im not really here anymore because I don't ttc but anyway welcome lol)
Not long Jen!!
PoP - So you had a reading saying conception in March, maybe you will be able to convince your DH into 1 month early for a BOY. I saw on another thread you live on the Gold Coast, me too... Are you talking about Paradise Ultrasound Specialists on Ashmore Rd that do the 3d/4d scans? I want to go there as i went with a girlfriend last year and she was told the sex at 15 weeks, and it was correct.
Yeah thats the one!! My friend was told the sex at 13 weeks and was confirmed again at 15 weeks...she had her daughter in November and they were totally right. She also got a dvd at every appt which was so cool!!
Yes Jen, You are all going to say get the scan, LOL ;)
Still thinking about it, I will let you guys know!!
Wish we had one of those places down my way!
