TTC BOY November Chit Chat Thread - All welcome!!

[TTC5]

Depends when you think you may Ovulate... how many days do you get +'s for?

Cinss, looks like a great plan to me as well.

3, I took Robitussin yep. I wonder if that's what is making my sinuses so much worse? I'll see what happens next cycle with it, unless I get a bfp this time (hopefully!).

Lola, thanks and sorry to hear about your dog as well. It is heartbreaking to see them so sick and even more heartbreaking to see them go Atomic has posted a few things about whey protein not being good for fertility or more so not knowing the effects it has on fertility. I didn't want to take my chances so just got DH to stop. He takes it for muscle building. It works really well and his arms are huge now. I don't tell him that though I will be interested to see what info you find. Oh I am praying for your hubbies balls! Good luck!!

5, you're not out! 10dpo is still early! Put those sticks away. Cramps don't mean AF is coming. I had cramps during the 2ww with both my girls.

Hobbers, thanks I don't believe in all that psychic stuff so can't really comment on it. Please don't give up just because of some readings though.

LBAM, I agree with 5, it depends when you O and how many days of OPKs you get. Generally if you're going for one attempt you DTD 12-18 hours after first positive OPK.

B, sorry to hear you are still having a rough time. ((hugs))

I am 8dpo today, still resisting the urge to test, I know it is way too early anyway. Cramping still. I have an appointment with my fertility specialist tomorrow so if this cycle doesn't work then I am pretty sure it will be onto Clomid. At least then I will know when I am going to O.

Hobber-- My kids do that too, my little one (3yrs old) even tells people at preshcool that she has a little brother on the way, kills me to correct it cuz I wish it was true. My older daughter (5) says mommy can we please have a baby boy in the morning I dont have any brothers (she is my tomboy too) She acts like its just a matter of my saying "yes"...

Lola--yep man kegels it when they like move it, ya know what I mean, it also delays, and intensifies climax, and increases volume...worth looking into for all these reasons )

Cinss--Thanks for the info I will try to pretty my signature up and add some tickers! Cant wait to be DUe date buddies FX!!!

Begonia--I am so sorry, when I was preg with DD2 i REALLY thought she was a boy, so when I found out she was a she (i know this sounds weird but) I grieved the loss of my imagined son...it was BAD! I have been kind of scared of trying to get preg for fear of having a girl....I feel your pain...of course now I would give her up even for twin boys (which would be divine) love her to bits....and I would not worry about the age diff u kind of have to have another so the littlest can have someone to play with too! I am at the point that I know I want more kids so I am gonna sway my ass off and if its a girl anyway I am gonna cry but then at least I know I gave it my best shot ya know, and I know you did! [[HUGS]]

5- LOL "its not over till the Red Bitch Comes" FUNNY

Bec---Hey I am prob gonna start clomid next too cycle I am nervous hear it sways pink but feel the same as you at least I will O dang it! My Dr apt is on Monday the 21st, and I am really hoping it doesnt turn out like TTC5's Dr visit. Have you done Clomid before? HOw much and what cycle days?

[2pinkNoblue]

Hey Ladies check me out I have pretty stuff on my signature! I never had that on IG!

5- I tested at 11dpo because my bff begged me to, but it was so light I thought it was an hope line lol I didn't test any earlier because I had zero symptoms.

2PNB- I believe it sways pink because it tends to dry up your cm and that can be remedied Love the siggy!

I took Clomid with my first daughter, it didn't make me O so I moved onto FSH injections. I conceived my second daughter on 50mg, days 3-7. Before taking medications I rarely, if ever O'd on my own. I conceived first ovulation cycles with both my daughters so I know that once I get O'ing I have pretty good fertility. Kinda sounds odd doesn't it? Anyway, off track... Have you ever had Clomid before?

[TTC5]

Thanks Jen!

Very nice

Do you think it's best to do it 3 times in one day? Thats what I was planning on doing but I got told that sways girl cause it lowers sperm count.

Doing it 3 times would only lower sperm count in the balls, but would increase it in the crypts where we are needing it for attempts, I think?? So at attempt time, surely more bd is a good thing
