TTC GIRL- MAY 2012

[Ribbons]

Hahaha girls, me too!!!! I am not really scared of much, but I can't STAND having the closet doors (or any door for that matter) open when I sleep!

[Babyy Love]

I cannot sleep with the closet door open. Even in my kids rooms, I shut them as well LOL, so I understand about being afraid of the dark.

Closet!? I even close the bathroom door! All doors must be closed even if it's my only source of air I rather sweat! I fear seeing someone or something

My cycle is so light it's creepy I mean just picture when they bust through the ER doors screaming "WE HAVE A BLEEDER!!!" yeah that's me! Maybe later it'll pick up but its so light as if it's day 5 and usually AF is gone by day 6. I'm guessing it's the vitex but now how do I know when I "O" with my cycle change??

[suregena]

My cycle was really light like that, too... and shorter. Super weird for me. Must be the vitex, indeed!

[_Lala_]

Ribbons congratulations!! Wonderful news!
Good luck with your cycle Suregena! Fx for you and everyone else. X

ahhhhhhh life is soooooooo busy at the moment!!!!!

i will try and catch up!

RIBBONS!!!!! Congratulations MWAH!!!!! xoxo So happy for you!! How manyDPO's were your first tests (that you took photos of) ? WHat an awesome early mothers day present

by the way - your comment about vitex! I have just linked the 2 together, i have been on it for 3 months, and my last 2 AF's have been short and light, and virtually cramp free! Will have to store that in the memory bank and use even when not ttc

Babylove - with the vitex i had no change in timing or cycle lenght, but i seem to be ovulating earlier? (plus the above comments)

Surgena - sounds like you have plenty of girl friendly things in your life! when are you starting your attempts? with the internet cheapies, i have used them and had no issues BUt i like ribbons suggestion of using them AND a more expensive brand and then deciding whether to keep using the cheapies....i think you have enough sticks to have it covered Careful! you dont want to start stressing LOL

mydream - when are you gong to test??

hope - fingers crossed it IS cd1! Let us know

Happy medium - best of luck!! (ps - love the profile pic, sucha sweet picture - makes me very clucky!)

Im on CD5 so will start my attempts soon....oh god i hope this is my month! Im going to have to stop and put this off for a couple of months if its not - i really dont know how the long termers (6 months plus) keep it up month after month
My body is not dealing well with being so nutritionally devoid - im too thin, my skin is horrible, i have shed so much hair that it has thinned out to the point where i am going to have to chop at least 15 CM off, i have seriously lost half my thickness - i have waist length hair (that took me years of pampering and TLC to grow and was one of the only things i really 'liked' about myself physically)
Im constantly weak and tired. PLEASE LET THIS BE MY MONTH!!!

Im going to go all natural and stress free...im not even temping...i dont want anything to stress me out, my job is stressful enough so i dont want to add to it.

Last couple of cycles i have ovulated on
(newest to oldest)
cd 12
cd 15
cd 15
cd 16

with doing FR, DH is only going to manage it 4 days in a row - so which 4 days should i make it to give me the best chances of pregnancy?

im thinking 10, 11, 12, 13?
or should i make it 11,12,13,14?

because it needs to be consecutive doesnt it? If we DTD then dont DTD again for 2 days then that defeats the purpose of the FR doesnt it? we've also got LR in the mix for DH, and rephresh for me.

let me know your thoughts pls girls!!

HAHAHA Groovy! I will not allow the bathroom light to be off EVER! That's my thing!

[KraizyDaizy]

Hi ladies. 6-8DPO, not really sure which day I Oed, more than likely the latter at 6dpo. I have a had a little pulling cramping but I am so trying not to let it go to my head. I don't want to be disappointed.

I pray all is well with everyone! Lord watch over the spoken and unspoken couples TTC. We all need you love and grace to bless our wombs with pink dreams! AMEN!
