September TTC Boy Chit Chat and Such Thread

2 million is still a shit load of sperm when all that is needed is just ONE.. and if he has normal motility I have faith you will get pregnant AGAIN xoxoxoxoxoxoxox

Agree!

OMG! So I had a warm bath today with 1/2 cup baking soda and checked my pH half hour later for the first time in over 8 weeks since going off the sway diet and supps and my pH is a 7!!!!!! I have only been back on diet and supps for a few days now so surely it is not that... the bath would have helped some but earlier in the year I had a bs bath and it didn't raise it at all!! Oh, I hope my pH stays like this!!!

Awesome!

[Flava]

hopeful-I would go next night if you get more then 1 smiley .
If you only have 1 then maybe middle of next day?

TTC5-all this sex talk huh? lol I use to have O before DH but this time I had to do after , so that's it.

That great!! But we not suppose to have warm baths I was freezing my butt off when I was ttc #4 LOL

sorry to jump in here, but I think after as that sucks the sperm up through the cervix and boosts it towards the right location - this is what we did when I got my DS

Yeah I did it good! LOL

[Flava]

Someone please take a look at my chart! I swear this is the never ending O or what?? Last night there was no more smiley so a -opk and I did not test one this morning because of that. But I tested the monitor and it's high! I always go from peak back to low but now it only went down to high! And I still have EWCM omg for 9 days now! And I *think* Im HSO up there but will check later on...oh and still have small O pains...I hope this is some after pain. C'mon now!

I told DH now I really hope it's not 2 egg...and he said we gonna be ELP too or what? He just love the name ELP here lol

[Flava]

Also am I in the 2ww yet or not??

[LolaInLove]

Flava, I would just keep doing it if I were you! But you may be ready to stop, LOL. Do you feel like you had O pains and already Oed?

Hopeful, I would bd anytime from 12-24 hours after. I don't think it matters much. As close to O as you can, and even a bit after (like a few hours) is fine too. You could also do it two days in a row. The timing thing is kinda debunked now, so don't worry so much about that!

I try to have a big O before and after, but if I had to pick only one, I'd do after also. I believe that "up suck" theory is pretty legit.

Kris, did you have a NT scan yet?

[WashingtonPromise]

Lola I really feel for you. Looking on the internet is just about the worst thing for people....it almost always gives you a worst case senario. When my period was 2 days late a couple months ago the "ask the docs" website I went to said I had an egg implant in my tubes and I should go to the doc right away. I know the two are completely different, but the fact is, it is hard to have hope/faith when every site or everyone says not too. Honey, our bodies can do some extraordinary things!!! His sperm did get you pregnant twice before...I know they didn't stick, but the fact is...they made it there. All it takes is 1 healthy swimmer. I think you have a great plan.....live your life happy with all the blessing you have and have faith that God is gong to bless you again. It is His timing not ours. I know it is so hard to you to see all of these ladies getting pregnant on the first shot, but everyone is different.

My cousin (who is a little...ummm....Jezebel) was messing around with her husband's best friend and he just got semen on her underwear. Well, she fell pregnant and her DH found out about her messing around and made them do the biological testing....it was the best friend's baby. Everyone was soooo shocked, the best friend kept denying that the baby was his because they did have "sex".

Remember my DH's brother had an aweful sperm count and almost 0 mobility and missing tails....they got pregnant the next month....and have 3 children now. There are soooo many stories of women getting pregnant after a bad report on a SA.

So....it only takes one. You guys will have a baby and then you will be the story that everyones tells to give other people hope!!!


Oh, and get mad....and sad. You should be, but don't stay that way for too long. There are so many people in this world that have it so much worse than we do.

lola i think there is hope as well. a friend of mine who was told she would never have kids got pregnant b accident and gave birth to her son 2 years ago. it was a total shock and pleasant surprise as she had made peace with never being a mom. her 1st husband even divorced her after 5 years of dealing with that and really wanting babies. so i believe anythings possible. hugs!
