January 2012 Chit Chat Thread for TTC Boy

[TTC5]

We did a variation of this-- I didn't have my legs that high up, but DH was really deep in there. We decided not to DTD doggie style, because we conceived one DD that way and I think it is hard to keep the semen in there while trying to flip over and lay down afterwards.

We do this too

Yep, I have Gestational Diabetes....I thought I would! Gotta see another Dr and learn about testing my blood sugar and what to eat and not to eat etc. Then my Ob wants to do a scan to check how big the baby is and how much fluid I have.

Were you having symptoms? xx

[TTC5]

Hey ladies!

I don't have time to go back and read days worth of posts so I'm jumping back in here. Have had a crazy week and haven't had time to jump on here. I hate being so behind so fill me in on things I've missed!

Welcome to all the newbies!!

AFM... tested today at apparently 12dpo- BFN. I don't actually think I O'd after the trigger injection. My temps are always a reliable indicator for when O has occurred and according to FF I only O'd 6 days ago, which I think is correct because I had SHOW and EWCM. Guess I will just have to wait it out. *sigh*

Does that mean the trigger did not work?

lola - I love that site, good ideas without being super graphic and having to look at creepy looking people lol

cinss - yep they go on and on lol

Bec - yep he's turned but I'll be having weekly quickie u/s to make sure the little goober stays that way

5 - so glad things are moving again and yay for the "getting us pregnant" chat!

Does that mean the trigger did not work?

That's what I'm thinking. It only works if you have a mature follicle/s. Pretty much guaranteed to work if that's the case. My doc said I had a medium follicle but maybe it was a cyst or the follicle wasn't big enough yet.

Good news on the fleet working! Hope the doctor's appointment goes well too.

3, oh yay, good news on turning little Charlie. You'll get to see him every week now, which is nice!

Skrimpy, I am so jealous that you've lost almost 30lbs! WAY TO GO! I'm gonna check out this Bar Method dvd. Is it ballet? It is frustrating to have your cycle wonkety after a baby, I remember. Do yours get normal after weaning? I know you bf for a while.

Lola the Bar Method was developed by a dancer, and it does use a bar for support, but it's not actually ballet. It's strength training and toning. I use the dip bars on DH's pull-up unit for my ballet bar lol! I really enjoy it. The kids like trying to do it right along with me, hah!

My cycles with the first three started while they were nursing and got normal right away. With #4, they started back around this age, but took like 6 months to get normal. I've nursed all of them til past a year, two until two, and one (#3) until 32 months... but my periods came back long before they weaned. I am kind of hoping if they come back soon with Honor they will hurry themselves up and be like clockwork. I don't like the wondering and wonkiness! She is enthusiastic about solids, so I am expecting it to come back anytime.

3P1B - OMG...how do they physically do some of those positions? I looked at that site for an hour!! LOL

[Hobbermittens]

Had a second lot and it finally worked yayy!!!
So off to my dr Tuesday for thyroid tests and diabetes (and a BT for pregnany) and he also said we can have a good chat about "getting us pregnant" That is if I am not utd now which I doubt I am!!

Oh good!! Was it an enema? Ii realized the stuff I took wasn't that, it was something else I had to drink. ANyway glad you are cleaned out!

If he did mistake it for a cyst, is there a chance you have still caught the egg if it released a bit later? xx
