TTC Girl - January 2012

[Out of the Blue]

We totally need a spreadsheet on who O’d when and who’ll be testing when b/c I can’t keep track! I’m so excited for our 2ww’ers and there will be so much testing going on very soon for a big group of you all! The next few wks will be very exciting!

Well My boobs feel and look fuller... They are not sore yet.. I usually get sore and bigger breasts about a week or a couple of days before af so this sign may be nothing at all ! oh and they also feel kind of itchy if that makes sense??

Do you have white little bumps on them? I forgot what they're called but they come out when you're preg and they make me itch...

Katie, big boobs sounds promising!

Suregena, sending you O VIBES!!! Temping is waaaaay easier than I thought it would be and I highly recommend it. I thought I’d just try it for a month and to see what happens and it turns out that even waking up at different times still gave me a clear picture of my cycle and I was easily able to pin-point O that first time temping. Hopefully, you’ll never have to temp b/c you’ll be getting your BFP in about 2 wks(ish)…

Amari, do you think you O'd on the 16th or 17th? YAY!

Rainbow, will you O in the next 5 days or so?

I am considering giving OH magnesium, but I have read that magnesium can raise pH. Could I be undoing all my hard work to lower OH's pH by giving him magnesium? Do your OH's take it?

DH takes cal-mags everyday as he’s done forever…I was going to have him stop but didn’t. I am just letting him do his thing and concentrating more on what I’m taking. FWIW, he is taking Liq Root 2x a day along w/cranberry. I’ve asked him to lower his meat intake at work and to avoid all red meat. I don’t cook meat at all for him at home.

KD, it’s still a bit early. Don’t give up hope yet! I’m hoping your BFP will sneak up on you and you won’t have to go the Clomid route!

I know! I lose track of where everyone is too!

I could OV any time within the next 6 days. My OPK is just starting to fade in now, but had a temp drop this morning that I normally get a couple of days before OV so it will hopefully be Monday!

only issue is that I have my mum and 2 sisters coming to stay today and they're staying until Monday... so it means food-wise it won't be so good this weekend and it might be fun having to BD while they're here if I get my peak on Sunday!

OotB where are you in your cycle now?

[Out of the Blue]

Rainbow, it's always a bit challenging w/house guests around! Do the best that you can! It's the 2ww which is the most crucial (at least for the health of the bub) but I know you've been working so hard towards swaying for your girl. I you get her soon.

I'm not sure where I am. I suspect I actually O'd on Wed. FF tried to give me crosshairs today meaning that I O'd on Tues but I'm thinking it didn't happen then. I usually get a bit down/emotional the day of O so I'm thinking it was Wednesday. I am just thankful that O probably happened, BFP or not.

I wish I had temped, myself. :/ I've been able to listen to my body spot on before, and could tell when ovulation as soon just by paying attention. I think I completely underestimated how herbs and diet would affect me. I have had two negative OPKs but my cervix is STILL high... so... fingers crossed.

It's my son's 2nd birthday on Sunday and it will be painful to not indulge in homemade cinnamon rolls, cookies, cake, homemade pizza, etc. I made a test batch of the cookies and can barely resist them. Still within my limits, but I had two last night and two today. Give me strength to resist a third.

I was going to say for February's thread we should have a list like a roll call! But hopefully all of you in the two week wait will have your BFP's so we won't need to!

I have Dh taking Cal/Mag. I looked into this and if Mag/Cal actually sways I have it covered by having DH on it. I don't take it because I don't want the extra nutrients. He also takes cranberry and licorice root.

Another BFN (using an FRER) last night on 10 dpo, after holding pee for 4 hours. I think I am out. Of course, this morning I get up and my temps keep going up. This is so frustrating. I forgot how frustrating TTC is!! KraizyDaizy, looks like you are in the same boat as me and I'm sorry!
