♥ June 2011 ~ Swaying for Blue? This is the thread for you!! ♥

[LolaInLove]

Hey all, I've been working my butt of the last 3 days so I can go on vaca for 2 weeks, which starts today! So sorry I missed your imminent question, Begonia! I am glad you did it, I would have said to go for it also. FX!

Cemas, I know that sucks, I totally understand how you feel. Just keep trying. Did any tests show a problem from HT? Do you think it is just your age (which I think is my problem)? Maybe try the DHEA and some antioxidants like me if that is the case. You'll get there, just don't give up yet. Look how perseverance got Babydes her bfp! Big hugs to ya.....xoxo

Iluv, balls all around with all that crap you are dealing with. I actually think maybe the diagnosis for your thyroid is good. Now you can get it leveled and get pg no problem....not to mention you will feel a lot better all around. Sorry about little DS2, I know that is heartwrenching to even continue to think about. We're here for you with everything.

Babydes and 3PNB, glad you ladies are feeling well. And NO thinking about silly OWT, preggos! They are all rubbish, you know! Keep your minds focused on putting amazingly healthy foods in yourself for those growing little beans. You know it won't be long before we are nubsessing with you and then waiting on pins and needles for your big scan!

Tink, I am with the others, start them supps now. Definitely the fish oil. Look through some of the sways and you will find a huge variation of what people took. I used to do a bunch of stuff, but now mostly just healthy egg stuff, but I would recommend taking 3PNB's recs for sure. She is right on about tackling your "issues" whether it be ewcm or ph or uterine health and LP length. I would also begin the drinks, if you are going to do those, pretty soon also. I am on those once we return from our trip at the end of June. (I'll be in Detroit and Chicago for 2 weeks, yay! And will do my best to check in every couple of days!)

Kris, best of luck to you and your partner. I would love to see you both get pg together! Why not employ two uteruses towards the goal instead of one, hey? Love it! I have some good friends (guys) who are starting their quest for a "gayby" as they call it. I would carry for them if I could! I think they are going for adoption though. I know all that expense is crazy, but you two hopefully won't care once you have your bab(ies)!!!

Everyone else, luv ya tons.....gotta start packing/washing the dog/cleaning the house for the housesitter/putting duct tape over my kids mouths right now. XOXOXO

Oh, and as for me....I am 7dpo right now....I have no idea what is up, but thinking I'm in the safe.

Kris, how many DPO are you now? have you peed on anything yet!!!!!!???? What about your partner! You guys could be pregnant together at the same time! How funny would that be!

Lola, Have fun!! xoxo

The only thing I have planned for this summer that could throw a wrench in my sway is my cousins bachlorette party at the end of august. Where if I'm not on my face drunk all weekend with everyone else then they will know something is up...is that going to sway girl? lol? man. this sucks. Other then that were good to go. I can stay on the diet im sure because I would need to have started it by then to attempt in Sept or Oct.

[begonia]

Have a great vacay Lola! OK I'm either crazy or I remember you being in Chicago last summer too? I'm going there in July to visit friends. Hope you have a lovely time off!

Babydes FWIW I had NO symptoms other than a + pregnancy test with DD2. I was really concerned too so I totally get it, but you can have a healthy bean in there and feel great, I promise. But I remember squeezing my boobs to TRY to feel something, LOL! And sniffing food just hoping for a wave of nausea... I mean, I felt NO sign of being pg. Felt heaps better once I got to see the heartbeat. Just keep doing what you're doing, resting and eating well, and that bean will nestle in just fine!

Cemas love I am so sorry you got the BFN. I know it has to be so hard to pluck up and keep going month after month. You can do this! Anytime you need encouragement just pop on here and know we're all cheering for you. I think iluv is our 2ww'er going camping. I wish it was me! But I'll be home, darn it all.

Tink did you get your supps? What did you go with?

Well I waver on testing, even though I have time to wait... I almost picked up a pack of tests at the store today so I'd have them for next week, but part of me was like, why waste the $? I can find out if I'm pg just by waiting to see if AF shows. I don't know ... we'll see ... I still wouldn't be surprised at all to see me POAS at 9dpo. I never had a 2WW before since neither DD was really planned so I might as well live it up and pee on everything I can this time around ;-)

Can you fake drunk, LOL? If you're ordering all your own drinks you can always get club soda (which is super boy friendly since it is made with baking soda) with a lime and act like it has vodka in there! Just knock those back, grab your cousins boobs, trip a few times ... it's all gold ;-)

ttc5- How long have you been on the diet? I know after a while my body kicked to hungry more then usual, it could be your body enjoying the feast and trying to stay there.

ELP ita, more kids is not that much more expensive but I still think you're nuts 4 is definitely our max.

Cemas - so sorry hun

Lola - Have fun, you so deserve some r&r!

Tink - You could always drink things mixed in orange or pineapple juice to try to even it out lol I love coconut rum in pineapple juice! I don't know about you but when I'm around drunk people I tend to feel a bit drunk myself. I'm with begonia, act a little stupid while nursing your drink and no one will be the wiser

Begonia - I'm the same way, why waste the money, I'll just wait yet there I was 11 dpo peeing away lol

[cemas]

Thanks girls i really appreciate all the support.

have a great trip Lola.Nope none of my test in Ht showed any issues for me or hubby....i even did an injectibles cycle this month...
anyways i am back to natural now and re-looking at all the supps again. It sucks that i have long cycles naturally(40 or more days) will definately add some antioxidents.thanks for the input

begonia, sorry for the confusion..but if i remeber correct u were going on a vacation too someplace.

Tinks, i have done the fake drinking too and no body ever doubted ever so give it a try or practice with hubby beforehand..lol

baby enjoy ur last pregnancy instead of worrying. all will be well.

[Tink18]

man what a bummer. I don't know how I can fake drinking with all these wild girls. They know me as being the life of the party. Plus I sorda want to have a few since this will be my last hoorah before we TTC #2, is there anyway around it? Is there anything I could have a little of that wouldn't mess with my diet? Or am I totally screwed? Not like drinking is more important then my baby sway but it would be nice to let loose a little. Especially since i will be away from DH and DD for the second time ever for whole weekend! YIKES!

I didn't get my supplements yet. I actually totally forgot yesterday when I was at the store. I got so wrapped up in buying DD sidewalk chalk and new art supplies. All kinds of fun stuff. I got so excited that when I got into the car i went "shit" i forgot why i actually came here. I am such a little kid when it comes to that stuff. DH came home yesterday and we had made artwork all over the back yard with the chalk. DD, was telling him what everything thing was. She was so cute. "daddy this is minnie, mickey, a tree, a duck, a heart, a flower, a leaf, you, me, mommy, gigi, and so on" so funny!!

Ok it's a beautiful day! we are going to swim now! and have a picnic outside! Hope everyone has a great day!!

WHO IS PEEING ON STUFFF!!!!!

I am going to go tonight before boot camp. Since I don't have to pick up my cousin. She is out of town.

[begonia]

WHO IS PEEING ON STUFFF!!!!!

DD2 just peed on the couch but I'm 99% sure you were hoping for OPK or preg test results!

Cemas no worries! I had a vacay back around end of May ... no more scheduled til 4th of july though. It's easy to get it all confused here!

Jen I loooooove coconut rum in pineapple juice! LOL! I always feel like I need to be wearing a bikini on the beach though. Which is not happening this summer what with my boy friendly figure and all ;-) If I do get pg there's no way I'm going anywhere near the pool by August; I can't imagine how bun #3 is going to stay secret til 13 weeks if I'm walking around in nothing but lycra! Yikes!

[3Pink1Blue]

Tink - we LOVE sidewalk chalk, it's just not summer without patio art! Bummer on the sups, I do that way more often then I care to admit lol

Begonia - dd2 just peed on the couch I'm not hitting the pool with anyone but dh and the kids. To be honest I wasn't planning on swimming with anyone else anyway as I would like to keep my extra large caboose as hidden as possible lol
