TTC BOY November Chit Chat Thread - All welcome!!

[LolaInLove]

Nah. I don't care about porn. As long as he isn't looking at anyone under age (he's not!!).

LOL, I hear ya! I had a serious boyfriend back in the day that was way too into it and I had a bad experience with all of that, let's just say.

[LolaInLove]

TTC5 - yeah I'm FH too even without the belly, I chose to ignore Lola's comments about her skinny ass lol

It ain't skinny yet! LOL, but working on it. It sometimes freaks me out to think of how long I did that diet and if I were still doing it, what I may look like!!!! I honestly feel like my body just went through a pregnancy and is now losing it afterwards....except no baby, grrrrrr!

[LolaInLove]

My big kids are so great with Honor! I was actually surprised b/c when Galen was born they didn't show a lot of interest in him. Maybe b/c we'd just had so many big life changes... Anyways, they adore Honor - talking to her, changing her, holding her. They are also a really big help around the house

That is great! I love it! Maybe it's because they are older, too. I am sure you are loving the help, though. I love reading your blog, sounds like you have an awesome brood.

3P1B! 3rd trimester already? Wow, baby Charlie will be here so soon!

TTC5, what did the dr. say?

Flava, I worry about all that xmas baking too, but oh well... my DS was conceived in Dec., so I think it is a good month for me. I hope anyway!!

Lola, I think I am in the minority far as the porn is concerned. Most women don't seem to want their DH to look at it. I'm sorry you had a bad experience with it.

[LolaInLove]

Oh, those horny DHs! I wonder what it is like to be a man?

Yeah, I agree about the diet thing--it MAY not make a difference, but I would seriously kick myself if I made a girl this time because I had slacked the last two weeks!! I guess I will see how I feel in a few weeks at O time... I might go through the motions in case we decide to DTD at the last minute or something. But I have had 3 separate predictions from psychics that I would have an August baby girl, so I really doubt I will try this cycle anyway! (my EDD would be Aug 12).

Oh, and all you ladies complaining about weight...I am fat as a house, so gross, seriously... thankful it is winter weather here now so I can hide under lots of layers!!!

Lola, I am totally jealous of your weight loss!!!

TTC5, keep us posted on what the doctor says if you go. I am curious about what's going on.

See, I am the man in our relationship, LOL....even though I don't watch porn, I am the horny one. This is why I think my DH has low T. But maybe he does sneak it in. The ex with the porn addiction said it's just a visual thing, all guys do it, blah blah.....BUT he always begged me to dye my hair blond and grow it really long and go to a tanning bed and wear this and that in the sack, it got weird. It was like the only thing that turned him on at one point so he could never just be with me, or any girl afterwards, apparently, like a normal person. But once, just to see what he'd do, I subscribed to a, um, ladies' site and left it up online and he FREAKED out and said how could I look at other naked guys. It was awesome. What a douche. That is why I am leery of guys and porn, I guess, but I do know that many use it wisely, LOL.

And seriously, please don't be jealous of me. I still look like a cow, but losing this weight is the only thing I can do now. If I could get pg easily, I would be on the diet still. Or hell, probably have a baby by now.

Don't worry about the psychics, but I hear you about wanting to skip a cycle with the diet. I don't think a little laxness in the 2ww would kill your sway, but I agree with 3p1b, you might as well have a good confident month.

[LolaInLove]

I thought I got a - last night but my urine must have been too diluted before bed, today I am back to +'s still.

WOW! That's crazy....hmmm, well, I guess go in on monday?

[LolaInLove]

Hobbers, so sorry about AF showing. Sucks

I noticed that you and TTC5 have been off the diet for the 2WW. I am still doing the diet and supps (all the ones I take apart from ural are fine safe all the time). I read somewhere that Atomic recommends staying on the diet especially during the 2WW as if you conceive a boy it helps it implant etc. Someone correct me if I'm wrong though.

No, you are right! It is the best practice.....I think many of us have been doing the diet so long that we get slack.

[LolaInLove]

Begonia, you take all the time in the world, lady. I am glad to see you still around. We can never quit GD, it is funny.

YAY for 3rd tri, 3p1b!!! May it be a non-painful and joyous one for you!

So, last night, my youngest says, "Mommy, when are you going to have a baby? I thought you wanted to have one? How many miscarriages did you have? Was it 2? Didn't you have one before G was born (big sis)? I just want you to have one soon." Just ALL sorts of questions. I guess it is good and bad to let your kids in on this stuff. I'd just hate for her to repeat it to anyone. I am usually doing ok these days, especially with feeling better about my figure, but it still hits me hard. I've done my homework on IVF now and am putting it on the backburner for a while. I'd hate to go to ridiculous lengths and expense to have a baby when we could have had a free one if we would have just waited a bit longer.

Meh. At least I get to hear Nutcracker music all day, which is making me happy. Plus, I am finding a new outlet for my ridiculous need to gather information incessantly, which is vegetarianism. And buying Christmas presents early, which makes me feel rather on top of things.

Lola, I think I am in the minority far as the porn is concerned. Most women don't seem to want their DH to look at it. I'm sorry you had a bad experience with it.

You might be....I only have a few friends that don't care either, and I have many who think it is a visual form of cheating, in a way. I think it is rather liberated of you, Hobbs! And ya know, you gotta do some things, make some concessions, in marriage sometimes. If you've got a horndog for a husband, better he's in the bathroom with porn than knocking on your door 3x a day or worse, at a hotel with a hooker or something!!!

Crashing...
Just wanted to say that we are pretty open with all that kind of stuff as well. I used to work as an assistant manager in an adult store(did all the toy orders, prescreened movies etc, was on floor helping people find the right toys etc...boy have I got some good stories! LOL)and I'm pretty laid back when it comes to porn. My hubby and I have no issues with each other looking at it(we're not sex addicts or anything)and I know that in our relationship it causes zero problems. I do know of many couples where it hurt the relationship though Being open is so open important when it comes to that kind of thing.
