TTC Girl - January 2012

[xokatietatie]

Me! I was stressing out and feeling miserable. I have too many friends who conceived girls without killing themselves doing a diet, so I refuse to be stressed about it.

7DPO and my temp went way down today, so maybe it's implantation? I will keep an eye out for any twinges today.

How is everyone today?

Nice!! fingers crossed for you that a BFP is coming soon!

[HopeandDreamG]

My DS1 was 8lbs 11oz, and DS2 8lbs 5oz. Both C sections!

Lemon~ did you attempt before work today?

Lala~ I've seen many ladies on here attempt at the first positive smiley OPK. They say on average you O 24-48 hrs later.

Peonyprincess~ My story is similar. My boys are 4 and 5 years old. They are such a breeze. dh was set on being done. What changed was an oopsie pregnancy (girl) which I lost (chromosome issues), I was beyond distraught and DH without me asking said, "we'll just try again".
I don't care that my life will become more hectic again. The boys will both be off on the bus all day at school in September, and I would love to be with a baby (girl) all day! (when I'm not in the office, LOL)

DS1 was 8 lbs 7 oz
DS2 was 9 lbs

Both were sections. They have big heads and I was in active labor with DS1 but his head got stuck and his heart rate started plummeting, so they did an emergency C-section. 2nd son was scheduled section as he was ahead in measurements and according to ultrasound he was going to be a big boy. They were thinking he may have even been closer to 10 lbs!

My mom is trying to be more postive, saying she'll love whoever I have, although she has to keep adding in that she hopes it's finally "my girl." At least she's trying harder....

MIL, who was against us adding to our family, just smiled tightly and didn't say much. At least she wasn't negative, that was good. She was probably thinking some thoughts, but I have to give her credit for keeping her mouth shut.

My cousin who was unable to have a second child has been awesome and very supportive! She is a lovely woman and I hope she kicks this breast cancer in the butt for good! I her support and well wishes!

Pinkin & Katie, FX you get a BFP!! I know ya'll are around 3-4 dpo?? but how early are you going to test? I did get my BFP around 9 / 10 dpo, so FX an early result to put you out of the 2WW!

Lemon, I hope this is your month! I understand about your trip in March, but still hope some girl sperm got in there and found their way to the egg!

Hope n Dreams, still can't wait to hear about your attempt in Feb! Yay for getting your health back on track!

Jen, did you guys have an attempt? Did you O yet? Need update, woman!

Peony, how far away now from when you think you'll O? I'm so excited your attempt (hopefully!) is coming up!

My twins were 7lbs and 6lbs1oz at 37weeks 5 days. I was in labour for 27 hours with an epidural, then they gave me a c-section because of failure to progress.

DS3 was 8lbs6oz and was born almost exactly on his due date. Total labour from my first pains until birth was about 9-10 hours. It was a completely natural birth (though a VBAC), and I was home from the hospital 2 hours later!

Thanks auorara. Can't wait for February. 5 weeks seems sooooooo far away because I am watching the days. and HUNGRY !!
How are you feeling? My due date for DS2 was the same as your due date, and he was born on Mochas due date! only difference is you both are cooking pink beans!!! Positive pink vibes....

Out of the blue~ Are you here??? How is your attempt going?

My OPK at 1.40pm was faintly there. I think the control line is faint, too, so maybe that's why it seems so faint.

I had stretchy (though very little) CM lunchtime so I'm just hoping these cheap OPK's are just generally on the faint side.

I'm SUPPOSED to O tomorrow. We'll see. :/
