TTC Girl - January 2012

OMG so my monitor says I should O in the next 3-4 days I don't know what to do. I wasn't expecting to O for another 10 days or so. I wonder if it's wrong? I totally blew the diet over the holidays.

was it a CBFM? have you been good on the diet for a week or two since?

Hi! I'm new and joining in here! I'm on CD 3, just took my first clomid last night. Hoping to O arond 1/20-1/25 (I never know when i'll O on clomid). Hoping to get a bfp around Feb. 1st.
Good luck to everyone else!

Rainbow- I have an Ovacue II monitor. I've been really good since the New year but that still leaves me with less than 2 weeks of strict diet. I don't know if I should just skip this month? I'm really leaning to towards skipping.

purple - how long will you be able to stay on the diet for? last cycle I decided to TTC with less than 3 weeks of strict diet behind me because I'm close to being underweight anyway... but it has to be what you can live with and what you won't regret. If you're leaning towards skipping but you try and you happen to get a boy, would you always regret not waiting? or would you be able to rationalise it as being an opposite?

welcome, hope you have a short stay in here!

Yea I think i'm going to skip. I think I would regret it. If I did the diet for at least a month along with other factors and I still got a boy then I would be a lot more accepting of an opposite. My poor dh and all his FR lol at least I can tell him he can give it a rest for now.

glad you've made a decision! some things are worth waiting for too

How important is diet in the grand scheme of things? I've been trying my best, but have not been as successful with it as I would have liked... However, DH and I are determined to try this month. Could it ruin the sway, or will the baby aspirin/rephresh/zyrtec/crystal light obsession be enough?

I'm still a bit nervous about tomorrow as that would be the day my period would have been due. I was having a lot of tugging/ cramping (not like period cramps though) on Friday and Saturday, it eased off on Sunday. I haven't told my Mom or his family yet, we're waiting for the period to offically miss...I will call my Mom soon, but she's been kind of down about us TTC'ing...we are close though, so I know I can't keep it a secret for long, I just don't want to tell her quite yet, so I've avoided calling her, which is probably making her mad, LOL.

My cramps come and go too, and I'm constantly checking the toilet paper when I wipe to make sure there's no blood. Everytime I do get a solid pregnancy symptom - even the uncomfortable ones - I'm so happy, because it makes me FEEL pregnant and be a little less stressed.

Sorry for the rant…Just having a hard time after my parents said they plan to visit during the time I just want to hide from everyone and grieve privately w/DH. I miss my angels and long to be preg again and with a healthy baby this time. I know we all long to be preg and want our dream to come true ASAP. My wish is for all of us to get speedy BFPs followed by news that it’s a healthy GIRL…

Oh Jen, I'm sooo sorry for the extra stress caused by your parents visiting. I'm also sorry for how your poor dog died - that much have been so traumatic for you!

Your parents visit won't be as bad as you think, though, because you'll be 3 months pregnant by then, and feeling much happier in general
