TTC Girl - January 2012

[xokatietatie]

I don't think I could go the entire pregnancy without finding out the gender! I have a friend who didn't find out for either of her pregnancies. She definitely has more will power than me!

I am feeling really crampy tonight , we dtd 11 hrs ago and 4 days ago I hope its a sign that something is going on in there!

Don't worry suregena! We went away to Legoland the weekend before our attempt and I ate breakfast in the hotel - it was only the second time I ate breakfast in the 3 months before our sway! I ate a normal lunch but I only had a small snack between lunch time and bedtime, so I just made sure my blood sugar was extra low at the other end of the day. It really needn't be a deal breaker!

PHEW! That's good to hear! Thankfully I remembered my massage is booked at 11am and told her, and she said they'll cook it after I'm back so it will be more like a brunch/lunch, so that's good. She brought us cupcakes, as well. I'll save that for tonight with something else minimal... but hopefully they don't have any grand plans but they might. :/

I'm going to have to drastically cut back in the following days... near-fasting, probably (okay, maybe not, but really stripped down), to have a decent effect. Really make sure my blood sugar drops before each meal.

But hopefully all the other sway things will still help. I can't afford to skip out this month. I guess I should just soldier on, as I am okay with a boy, but I do hope to have a good chance for a girl!

Yesterday at work I had a bit of twinging near my left ovary (?!) so I'm probably going to start testing after I get back from the massage just to check. But AF only ended mere days ago so maybe it's just getting ready in there...

Lot's of waiting going on here! I am starting to feel some slight cramping myself, cd 12 for me. It looks like the opk line is getting a little darker too, so hopefully I will o soon! No cm yet though.

Do you think skipping the coffee with sugary creamer is a good idea around o and 2ww or should i keep doing it?

I didn't know with my first, it was actually fun!

I'm ok...actually too ok. I'm already starting to get nervous about this pregnancy because the nausea that started up a few days ago seems to have disappeared.

[littlemissnaughty7]

oh mocha hun try not to worry to much, can you get an early scan booked ?

[amari]

Mocha-that happened to me with my second, then it started up again about a week later!
