TTC Girl - January 2012

I just get cramps like when AF is here, but they're dull compared to AF cramps.

Pink and lemon-I was just reading about it today on the internet because of my lack of o pains this month. I don't get the pain in the bum that you are describing, but I do get the severe pain in the ovary and mine lasts for days. But, I did see that it can be normal to have trouble sitting. Though it is always good to have those things checked out to be sure.

Katie-That's how mine has felt this month, just very faint cramping. It is weird to me and has been making me feel like I'm not really O'ing! We didn't even dtd early this am like planned, (we did do it around 11 thank goodness or else I really would be kicking myself).

I feel like pink has felt, not confident. I guess you never know though.

I saw the sweetest little girl outfit at the store yesterday and I had to force myself not to buy it. DH says if we get a BFP he is going to buy it for me though. I stood there in the store, staring at it for the longest time, just imagining putting it on a little girl 9 months from now. Anyone else have a secret stash of girl clothes?

im too scared to buy girls stuff, in case i jinx myself....lol..
but its so hard to go shopping, i cant walk past the girl section, i have to stop and look, they are all sooo cute!
i seen the cutest little girls boots last week, so tiny, and impractical...lol, but they were so cute......

Lemon - I know the pain you are talking about! I get bad O pain every single month. I actually thought I was O last week because I got a confirmed O on my monitor. But then on Saturday my O pain started, sunday they got worse and today pretty painful. This morning I got another confirmed O on my monitor (i'm sooo confused) also got my first +opk today which makes me believe last week was a fluke or something and I'm really O now. Anyway there have been some months where my O pain hurts so bad I can't even walk straight up ( i have to lean over a bit)

I hope you feel better soon. If you don't get a bfp this cycle I would bring this up to your Dr. and see if you can get a sono next cycle around O time to see if there are any cysts during O.

Just a Q about size of babies... I have only been through one birth ( natural) was 4.5 hrs and it was sooo painful, Our d/s was born on his due date and weighed 7pounds 2 ounces... I am so scared of having anything bigger then that pretty much i am just scared of childbirth.. They say the next ones are usually bigger?? Is that the case with you girls?

Hi girls, sorry i havent been around for a while, there was stuff going on at home (DP is reluctant to have a 3rd and basically said he cant do it) so i avoided coming on here. i didnt want to hear all you lovely ladies talk about TTC when i wasnt even sure if we would be. Well, thankfully, DP and i talked it out and he understands how much it means for me to try for a girl so he is back onboard. Phew!!

So, I am currently on CD14 and am expecting to O in the next couple of days. We are abstaining and doing 1 attempt. I know that it has been said that if you are doing other things to sway then timing doesnt really matter, but i am just wondering how long after you get the smiley face LH surge (from a Clear Blue digital) should the attempt be? What has everyone else decided to do? I'm not sure whether to BD as soon as i see the smiley or wait 18hrs or so. Hmm, too many decisions!

Katie, Dannikins - iam so desperate to buy beautiful girl things but i just cant bring myself to do it. I really feel like i would be majorly jinxing myself if i did. I just dont know how i will go if this one turns out to be a boy - yikes!

Also thought i would add that i am STARVING!! And would seriously consider giving both my arms and legs for some decent food right now!
