Pink swayers' December thread

[KraizyDaizy]

Merry Christmas to you all!!! I hope we get some BFPs soon! I am 9DPO and have not caved and tested yet. I guess other than being tired and sore bbs, I don't feel preggers. I am thinking it is just al the extra Christmas activities that are tiring me out. I hate to waste a test and my temp on 8DPO was after being up late wrapping presents while my angels slept, is rather high, but I did get a normal nights sleep once I went to sleep, so I am not sure if that high temp is reliable or not. Then this morning, I was up with our 4th DS and did not remember to temp with Santa coming in the night. I am probably not going to get a BFP, so I am just waiting as patiently as I can for my AF. I do hate to get disappointed and as long as I don't test, the possibilty is still there, and when I do and it's a -HPT, I will be crushed yet another month.

Amari- I really agree with mocha you would have totally regretted it if u attempted this month. I know how your feeling though. I'm even feeling guilty for eating whatever i want for the holidays and I was out this month anyway. attempt not till end of January. I do believe though that after today being strict strict strict till next attempt will be fine.

Thanks, girls, that does make me feel less guilty! I am continuing to eat like crazy today and back to strict LE tomorrow!

Mocha-I think you can keep having that a few days after O, no?

fingers crossed for bfp's for all of you out there!

I've stopped worrying myself about the +OPK. I'm fairly sure I'm right about O happening late at night on the 24th, and I'm going to assume that was the case unless proven otherwise. My temp was still up today - not way up, but up enough that if I plug the identical temp in tomorrow I get crosshairs. So...I *think* I'm 2 dpo now.

Hi guys…spotting again this a.m. w/lots of cramps. I really thought we’d have a shot w/all the BD sessions we had but I’m really thinking I’m out this month. I’ll hopefully O again in mid-Jan so I’ve got a ways to go. If it’s AF, I wish it would just start already instead of all these stupid cramps and spotting. On to 2012…

Did everyone have a good Christmas (if you celebrate it)? The boys had a splendid one although DH thought it would be a great idea to have Santa put harmonicas in the boys’ stockings. UGH…I’m going to have to track those down and make them disappear. I think we’ll just make them “Christmas” harmonicas and have a one-day-only showing on Christmas every year. Or….I could just make them disappear forever, lol. Honestly, why would he think that they’d be a good idea for a 3.5 and 22 month boys??? Maybe I’m just a Grinch b/c all I got for Christmas was a BFN and impending AF. Sorry, rant over…

Amari, I agree w/Mocha and H&D...You would be having regrets so it's okay. I'm sending you lots of good thoughts to get it in January!!!

H&Ds- thx for stocking me for Christmas…wish I could have showed you a better chart and BFP! Best of luck in Jan w/the Clomid and Ovidrel. I’ll have my fingers and toes crossed for you to get a nice BFP right out of the gate!

YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAY, Mocha!!! What a relief O has come and passed...Now just try to sit back and think sweet pink bean thoughts for an early 2012 BFP.

Auroara, you can definitely get preg from your BD pattern,O+12 or not! I’ll be cheering you on in the 2ww!!! I hope you have a good time at your Mom’s house. BTW, despite my efforts to clean yesterday, the house is a BIG mess again w/new toys everywhere!

Spotting this morning and I believe I hurt my back carrying my 3yr old to bed last night grrrrrh!!! Glad I did not waste a test, cause more than likely this spotting will be full blown AF soon. Christmas is over and now my AF, I am so depressed. I told my DH and just cried on his shoulder. I hate this swaying, I really do! I am fed up with it! Sorry, but it's true. I feel like I am being punished for trying to control what I am not supposed to. My Christian beliefs are at war with swaying this afternoon. Should I sway or should I just DTD and let the Lord have "Hisway" and not "Mysway"? So confused....

[Mochagirl]

Sorry you're feeling so down, KD. This swaying/TTC thing is TOUGH. Could you maybe try lightening your sway next month to see if that gets you your BFP? I would totally understand if you decide to drop it entirely - we all need to do what's best for us.

Mocha,
Thanks so much. I have been TTC for over a year and a half, so I am tired. I think if I do decide to try again, I will go all natural DTD through O, with JAD and no additive RePHresh or Replens. I will not be strict on diet, I just can't be, but I always eat like a bird, and low salt and meats for sure. The stress of the diet is very hard on me, not because I cannot keep to it, just that I have to change my menus for the boys so much. I cannot take meat and potatoes off the menu, and trying to make two dinners is so hard when you work full time. I guess if I just had a grasp on small meals I could make in advance it would help. I just don't know right now. I am devastated....heartbroken, and feeling so selfish for it...
