Welcome to the thread PrettyinPink, good luck to you

Today is 5dpo and I am having lots of cramping and lower back pain....At least its something!

How is everyone doing?

[Mochagirl]

I'm just waiting for af to leave. I have her bags packed, but she's still hanging around - the guest who wouldn't leave! I'm still hoping to O mid-week next week.

Time to get that Af out!!!!
Geez mocha...this is tough!
When do you leave for out eastÉ (sorry, question mark not working!)

[Mochagirl]

We leave mid-day on the 22nd. The earliest I've ever gotten O is CD13, which is on the 22nd. Now, it's possible I'm actually on CD6 today since the only real reason I'm not counting my first day of red bleeding as CD1 is because I still had a high temp that day. If that's the case, I COULD ovulate on the 21st, which would be fantastic. However, in the past I've also O'd as late as cd16 (including 2 of the times I conceived), so the worst case scenario is I'll O on the 26th, which means I'll have 4 days of cheating on the diet leading up to it + the logistical nightmare of how to dtd with dh when we're sharing a bedroom with all 3 kids.

Oh dear!!!!
mocha...this is not getting any easier for you!

I am sorry this is getting even more cofusing for you....I can barely figure when I o...and I am usually fairly certain after the fact.
I am trying to figure out if I should go ahead tonight or if I am too far away!
I read too many boy sways that follow my plan!
That being said, I really cannot do this anymore! I need to get pregnant and end the swaying aspect of things.

Everyone said I would have three boys....so why bother right!
ugh!
And the diet! I truly am not doing well.
I need to enjoy my kids that I have and not worry about what I eat. I feel like I am missing out on them bc I am so worried about conceiving a girl!
I think it is hard with work right now though.

We will have to figure things out for you....
would you be able to take a date night...in the car...lol!

You weren't around last summer when I had a similar situation. I O'd while at my family cottage, sharing a room with all 3 kids, and staying in our tiny, rustic cottage with my parents and one of my brothers and his family. We managed to make things work that cycle, though it was stressful and unpleasant and I still didn't get my BFP.

This time it's actually not as bad. We'll be sleeping in the finished basement, which has its own bathroom. If worse comes to worse, dh and I can dtd in there while the kids are sleeping. Again, not exactly comfortable or ideal, but at least we won't be upstairs with my MIL in the next room!

[lemon2012]

You are a trooper!
Lets hope for early o for you!!!!!
Maybe you can even join the mile high club! Now that would not be comfortable!

AF arrived CD1 for me..what a dissapointment!Oh well what else is there to do but to dust myself off and try again,i wont give up!So now i guess i can only think i either didnt ovulate or missed it?Cant imagine how but thats my only explaination..i always dtd very close to +opt so maybe ill just dtd every second day after af leaves and as long as i can?What do you all think of that oh and ill do LE diet ?

[Mochagirl]

Sorry about af, sweetsister. How long have you been trying? DTD every other day is apparently the best way to get pregnant, but it does sway boy. Were you using rephresh or anything like that last cycle that you could drop first?
