Sunstars very sorry for your loss

[kittendreams]

I'm So sorry sunandstars that is just heartbreaking to go through. Sending lots of healing thoughts your way and agree with the girls that one whole cycle would be a good idea but I think exercise, once you feel up to it, can only do you good both physically and mentally xx

Emshe welcome back xx

So sorry about your dh Gafan but I agree with the others you are the one to carry and birth and do most of the child raising so if it's in your soul to have another child you just have to follow your heart xx

ABC no I don't think I've o'd yet! Very confusing cycle so I'm just keeping up with e4d and not even testing opks anymore!

Kiku are you testing soon?

HGmama that is one exhausting weekend!

Noemi and eighme have you attempted/ o'd yet?

Thinking of all you girls this cycle sending you all sticky baby dust x

[kikurose]

ABC you've been on my mind. My entire house is sick too, something going around our island I think. I don't have much to say except I wish I could give you a big huge hug.

I think I'm going to wait to test on Thursday at 11 dpo. I've been feeling very very down about this cycle and just fatigued from trying and nothing. I know people try for much longer than six months, so I should get it together, but given the huge move I'm in the middle of and everything else it's just weighing on me. I'm really kicking myself for not DTD after our main attempts, but we were both sick and so exhausted. I think being sick is also messing with my normally positive mindset too lol.

Can't wait for others to test! FX for lots of sticky positives this month!!

Got the Saturday blues. Didn't even test today. We are traveling this weekend. 3 hr drive last night, 2.5 hr this morning, sleeping at SIL. And we'll be going to a soccer game tomorrow 1.5 hrs away and then we will have a total of 7ish hrs of driving tomorrow. To say the least, sleep is screwy, and intentionally forgetting to test today doesn't bother me. I guess I've already decided that I'm calling doc on Monday morning.

Kitten hmm, that seems kinda strange since you took Clomid this cycle, yea? What CD are you now?

Kikurose - I'm sorry you've been sick as well and that you've been feeling down too. I understand you though - being in this process for a long time is really hard. Hoping this is your month. Your chart looks good so far!

Does anyone have TERRIBLE hunger in the tww? I've been starving all day today - way more than normal!! Maybe it's the lack of sleep and stress and generally not feeling great about things that's making me want to eat but it's awful. Trying hard not to "symptom spot" b/c of it and I know it could also be higher progesterone making me so hungry, which could be just a result of the Clomid and not necessarily anything more. High progesterone causes hunger yea??

[HGmama]

Thanks kikurose!
Yes ABC, I'm starving! May be the PMS symptoms too. Today I had red meat. I've been no red meat all week and then my MIL made beef strogonaoff for dinner. What do you do when that happens? This is my first real attempt at the LE diet.
Anyone know why I'm getting two links in my signature instead of one? I only pasted one!

Thank you LMSM yes I will take all your gorgeous pink girly dust! How is you beautiful little one? Xx

Remind me again how to link my chart sorry I can't find the instructions you gave a while back Pbn.

Thanks hon, we seem to be getting better sleep...and she’s finally putting on decent weight after a few weeks of not putting on enough. if we keep going with only one feed at night I will feel human soon again lol
She’s a darling otherwise,smiling and cooing and adored by her big sisters

Am sending a truckload of that pink dust to you and keeping my FX!

[LMSM]

Kitten, weird indeed that you dont seem to have Od yet..I know that my O s with Clomid were early but then again it seems that when I have a good quality O. And conceive it s always on CD 11-12 ish (which was the case for dd3, though no fertility treatments).
Could be that your 1st PPAF wasn’t that Long ago, and your body is still adjusting ..the Clomid may not have done its thing because of that?

ABC, I had progesterone pessaries for my 3 girls, and not sure about hunger but tiredness for sure was a thing while on it. Since it mimics pregnancy symptoms , it’s not unreasonable that it could cause hunger!! Fx for you !!! The tww is terrible

Kitten, we've had two attempts. I'm not charting or tracking in anyway and leaving it up to the universe! Crossing my fingers we got it and I'll be getting a BFP by the end of the month.

Thanks girls.
I think today is o day finally but I will see over the next days to confirm.
Having pretty strong o pains, cervix and cm all indicate its close so fx!
We had attempt on Friday and will have attempt tomorrow to keep up e4d pattern.

Thanks LMSM I have had about 4 postpartum cycles now so I hope my body feels ready to get pregnant again. I think the clomid did work and my body tried to o a week ago but for some reason decided not to? Might have overdone exercise and LE diet? Not sure ��

So glad your baby girl is sleeping better LMSM she is doing better than my ds2 who is 17 months lol!

ABC hunger is my main pregnancy symptom... soon followed by reflux and morning sickness! I know you are not sure about a bfp but I'm crossing everything this is your month!
