It's officially CD11 for me. I'm going to try to keep myself busy until this afternoon. DS3 has his 2 year wellness visit with the doctor at 10 a.m. and then we're going out to lunch with an old friend at 1 p.m. Hopefully, it goes by quickly!! I have a feeling I still won't get my positive, but a girl can dream.

O will be here soon, Katie! Sounds like a busy morning though, so that is good!

How did it go last night, pink?

Anyone have good pink-friendly dessert ideas/recipes? Having people over tonight for desserts/drinks/snacks and not sure what to make. Thanks!

MMmm, do you have a recipe for these?

[rainbowflower]

there isn't really one... you can buy all of the ingredients separately from the shops
like these:

you can whip some single (or double) cream with a whisk and put that on top, but you can also buy pots of it ready-whipped or use squirty cream

then just top it with some strawberry slices or raspberries

Thanks!

OOTB, did you get some BD'ing last night?

Pinkin, I would sooo do an o+12 attempt, you have nothing to lose! And maybe a BFP to gain

Katie, why if you get preggers this month, would you wait until August? just curious?

Peony, I'm glad to hear AF came, let the TTC party begin soon!

Thanks, all for your support! I didn’t expect O to come this soon but who knows…it may be long and drawn out like last time. I got 4+s in a row in December but I O’d on the 3rd + according to FF. Since I just really want to be done w/swaying and have a healthy, growing caboose in my belly, we’ll just continue to BD through O, I guess. Poor DH was so exhausted (day 8 of FR and lots of Liq. Root) but we got it done! Last time, I was using (abusing) RepHresh EVERY DAY but this time, I'm definitely not going that route and will use 1/2 an app 3 days from now if I think I need it again. for a to come my way...Little girl, GET IN MY BELLY!!!

As for my “Hail Mary” attempt at lowering T via classical music, I was thrown for a loop. My nice, calm classical music station was playing some really lively stuff this a.m. so I just turned it off. I was really starting to get into it (as were my boys!) but I was afraid of the outcome.

Pinkin, we did use Sylk in the last cycle. We always use it b/c I’m so dry now and I like the extra little pH drop it gives… So sorry you’re sick but it sways in your favor, though, especially if you’re Oing now! Did you get that 0+12 in? You can certainly get preg after 72 hrs…It’s totally possible!

PurpleSky, you’re right…everything is planned and we get so relaxed and then when it looks like O is coming, we go a bit mad. It happens to me every time, no matter how set in stone my plans are and how relaxed I am.

Suregena, that massage is going to be so beneficial to you and that relaxation will be a perfect touch to your sway. What great timing!

Katie, my little guy will be 2 yrs in a month (Valentines Day …my little cupid)…I can’t believe 2 whole yrs have gone by….and I’m not preg w/#3, LOL! You’ll get that +OPK…Just try to keep your mind distracted and stay busy! Have a fun lunch today!

Amari, I really like Rainbow’s dessert idea…Now I’m hungry and want to eat that but it’s only 09:30… Something similar could be angel food cake (or any cake!) topped w/lite coolwhip + low fat cream cheese + strawberry jam. I make this for DH and he loves it. Adding the cream cheese really makes the mixture taste even richer.

Aurorara, I your ticker... Grow, little poppyseed!!!
