October Chit Chat Thread for Blue Swayers. All welcome!!

[Foxy]

Flava - Do you remember Keeley from IG? She swayed, but got a girl. Then had a baby boy with no swaying at all. Kelly (from the blue crew) lost a boy before she got pg with her son. It can happen with or without swaying. Don't give up hope! I will go and see if I can find my sways for you.

Wait a min. Foxy you are a u/s tech student? Ohhh we can all post our pics for you lol That's so cool! ( well i hope I will)

I just started this year, lol. Can't wait to see you pics, hun!

I don't even really give a shit about having a boy anymore, to be honest. This whole deal has taught me some mad perspective, that is for sure. I just hope we can have one someday. It will most likely be natural, I'll tell you that. We aren't doing any IVF. I just don't want to become super poor to MAYBE make a baby, and then be poor until he/she is like 7 years old paying its conception off. I just think we are going to try until we have one or I stop ovulating and become too old, whichever happens first.

Flava, don't feel like your sway can't work. Obviously, it is a crapshoot as to whether or not they work, but there have been lots of lucky swayers who got their boy, and just because yours didn't before doesn't mean it won't work again!

Lola who knows when but I really, really think you have good reason to believe DH will get you pregnant again. I think you're wise to expect it to take time but the odds are very much in favor of it happening, thank goodness y'all KNOW it has happened before, KWIM? Lots of folks struggle with infertility and don't have that hope that you have, so try to hang on to it. It's going to happen. I just know it. If I have to hang out here for 4 years to see it, I'm going to see it. I believe it.

And Flava I'm with Lola, just bc a sway didn't work before doesn't mean this one won't. For one, you've changed significant things since last time. Personally I don't know what the heck I'd change from mine. I seriously can't see where, other than good ol' rollin' the dice, I "failed" and IF (and ladies, that is a GIANT if) we decided to have another baby I'd sway again. I just posted it in the sway results thread but IRL the folks I know with 3 girls FAR outnumber those with GGB, so if I see even 50% of sways working, well to me it's better than the natural odds. You've got a GREAT shot at getting blue. FX you do!

I can't recall if I mentioned it or not but DH has decided we should find out. Mostly because he thinks it's a girl too so why don't we just find out now and let the DD's know and hopefully all get super pumped about it. I can't lie and say part of me isn't hoping the first scan was wrong .... but I know odds are we'll just be getting confirmation of what I already know later this month. Anyhow, we'll have them write it down and then plan to go to my fave baby store and open it there, so when we open it I can immerse myself in retail therapy immediately Thank heavens I already know so I won't be bawling in the middle of the store. I really, really had hoped this was our little fella so it's nice that I've had some time to get most of the sad out.

Also through our convos DH has said if this isn't our son then maybe it means we aren't done with kids after all. I can't imagine raising 4 kids though, and I'm definitely NOT willing to get pg again w/o knowing it would be a boy. I don't want the emotional rollercoaster of HT. So IF we have another we'll do an international adoption. And right now, it's good for me to know that's out there because it means that IF 2 or 3 years from now I still feel an emptiness for not having a son, we CAN have one. And even better, we'll have one who really, really needs a home

[Flava]

Lola- you are so right about all this doc and ivf thing! I really think you can get a baby with DH because you did get pregnant 2 times already. m/c has nothing to do with sperm count if I know that right.And you lost 10 lbs? wow Im so jealous!!!!

Jen- I will check this Parenthood out for sure!

[WashingtonPromise]

3p1b:It is times that this I wish I had channels on my tv....I would love to watch Parenthood......I know I am just kidding myself, I have no extra time for tv.

Lola: I have been feeling the same way this past month. I love my girls and would love to have another. My youngest just melts my heart. I would love to have another boy, too, But I think I just don't care anymore.

Foxy: I am TTCing #7. Glad to hear that your sways worked. You were don't the IG diet though, right?

I have been so tired today. It is hard to tell if it is just from my normal life or preggo symptoms.(can you tell I am talking myself out of it) I was so tired yesterday I almost didn't take a shower before bed. It was only 8:30, but my body thought it was 10....bedtime. I almost hate to post symptoms though, if I get a BFN it seems almost....... weird. I don't know

[Flava]

Foxy-I would love if you post you sway here because I don't really visit IG...but if you just post the IG link to your sway that's good to I would love to read both of it!
ummm yeahh I remember Kelly we where not good friends so to say...ummmm wait maybe it's a different Kelly? The Kelly I know did swayed but had a m/c and she said it was a boy. Then she swayed again and got a boy but at first they thought it's a girl because of the u/s ....so they went to another place and find out baby was a boy.

[WashingtonPromise]

B: What a great post

[Flava]

begonia-Im so happy you are here please don't leave me! lol You know you never posted a pic I would love to see your baby so i hope you will from the new scan then!When is it? And just to say I never ever thought I will have 4 kids and now trying for #5 it's crazy! First of all I started out with I don't want any kids ! So yeah you just never know!
Adoption is very nice I think I would have already do that but DH says no way.

Forget to say I know sway can work it's just super hard to believe mine will ukwim? And when I got my bfp of course I did not think it worked but now I think it was a boy and the next will not work. I know it's silly but it's how I feel now.

[Flava]

WP- you don't temp either? AHHH no one think of poor stalkers? LOL You sure sound pregnant so I hope you are. When will you test??

[My Fabulous Children]

Hi Ladies, Can you please help me ..

Ughh I have no idea what's going on with my body right now and I'm kinda lost tbh! I got my first postive OPK in the evening on CD 16 then I retested CD 17 and all were positive, but negative on CD18 ..Usually I get Positive OPK's 3 days in a row, but this time only about 2 very weird!! maybe it was just a fake positive and I haven't ovulated yet. I have had the same thing happen before, Or my LH surge change on clomid?

We did an attempt on CD 17 AM, It was about 8 hours from my first + OPK. I thought we will make another one in 48 hours since I get three days of + OPK, but that didn't happen.

Either its fake positive or maybe my surge was short? I don't know I am very confused. My temps are getting up, but still early to tell.

Oh and I was having bad ovulation pain/cramps on CD 17 night it was very bad worst then AF cramps, it was more like my m/c ..I never had this pain before.

What do you think? Can you please look at my chart?

g2g now bring my DD1 from school ..I will catch up with everyone later!

That's her. I didn't know that something happened between the two of you. Sorry if I brought up bad memories
