TTC Girl - January 2012

[lemon2012]

Hi everyone,
Well, we had one attempt so far and I need advice!
We wanted to try this month, but maybe not super hard...we booked a trip with the kids in March. I would be 10 weeks if I got pregnant this month. However, we also did not want to have any regrets about missing a month considering I just turned 38.
So, we had one attempt on cd 10 after abstaining. FR was too hard and as we got closer to o I think it starts to jeopardize the probability of getting pregnant. I am not sure but it was hard on DH to dtd that much by himself! Anyway, today I woke up with a super dark positive OPK. The ones I get the day I o!
So, I figure I have now done one attempt at 0-1.
We conceived DS2 with abstain, one time bd 0-2 or 1.5. So now I am nervous.

Should we keep bding?
(I did not use rephresh or J and D btw).

Any advice?

You can add another attempt- I would have DH release now and dtd later if your worried about sperm count. If it also makes you more comfortable you can add a drop of rephresh. What does your gut tell you? Think about whether you will be glad you added an attempt or if you would have rather left it alone!

Lemon hun were you swaying when you concieved your DS2 ??

I feel really bad, because I have not kept up with the thread to well, but ladies I am feeling blue today. I know you all are the only ones who I can talk to about this, so please bare with me and listen to me cry/rant.

I have just come to the realization from my last yearly exam that my enlarged uterus might be the problem to me not being able to get pregnant. I did not have this with my other children, so maybe I have worn my uterus out? My OB did an ultrasound the year before this and it was okay, just enlarged, but can the enlarged uterus be keeping me from conceiving? I mean why would it stay this way. I have horrible heavy periods, so of course I am anemic! I am just starting to think that I am not going to get pregnant again. I just feel like my pink dream is over. I am in the TWW, but don't feel like it will be a BFP. Does anyone know anything about if an enlarged uterus can cause you not to be able to conceive? We go on Clomid next cycle and I am thinking I am going to forget everything. DTD as much as we can. No jellies really, maybe some SYLK. Take my meds and pray it works. Any thoughts?

I have no answers for you, KD, but I'm sorry you're concerned. I hope you find out it doesn't impact being able to conceive.

Thanks so much Mocha. It means so much to have such kind ladies to help me through this.

If I add an attempt does that sway girl?
I think I may o today...EW, cramps etc....major dark OPK.
If i leave it with one attempt and abstain 0-1 or 2 tops...is that better for swaying?
I am soo confused!

hun im not sure about the enlarged uterus hun, have you googled it ? could you not book an app with your doc who could explain it to you to ease your mind ? im on lomid next month too, il be doing some sway things tho but only because i want a girl, i have two boys, will you be mortified if you had a boy ?? as if you wouldnt be you may want to forget everything next cycle but id suggest to stick to the diet and do it hardcore, just my opinion hun,

[littlemissnaughty7]

No, DS 2 was an oops baby!

so you wernt doing all your other sway things hun so you have a very good chance of swaying for your girl, JMO but i strongly think a one off bed preferibly with 0+12 along with diet and other things sway girl, you have to make the decision yourself will you stress with the one attempt you put in because of your last pregnancy outcome or would you stress adding a 0+12 or whatever would be too much, if you do have another attempt i agree with H&D have your husband release a 1 or 2-3 of times inbetween x
