TTC Girl - January 2012

pink-sorry about bfn, maybe your are still in, you said you didn't get a + test until you missed af with your ds. fx for you still!

katie-hope you are feeling better today and that you are still in too!

lemon-agree about the thunderstorms!

Not sure when to test, I will probably test too early. We'll see.

peony-I hope dh gets back for you!! Hope it's not too stressful.

[PeonyPrincess]

Thanks amari. I just have to hope that I didn't O until today. I did have some O pains and tenderness while I was at the gym, so I will basically be doing an O+12 if I am lucky at this stage if that is when I Od. Not my plan at all, but what can you do?!
We have thunderstorms every afternoon at this time of year. I love them, but the dog is still scared of thunder.

Pinkin, Dannikins, are you doing anything for Australia Day tomorrow? Wish I could have a few glasses of wine!

Lala, where have you gone? How are you?

I know this is going to sound crazy, but I'm seriously considering not testing again until Sunday. I've been talking to a good friend this evening, and she's helping to renew my positive outlook a little. I had been calculating my O day wrong (because I have no idea what I'm talking about lol) and she told me since I am unsure I should err on the side of caution and say Sunday (the 15th) was my O day since it was 2 days after I got my +OPK. That would make me only 10 DPO today (the 25th). Maybe I was just testing too early. With my last pregnancy I was put on bed rest immediately because of how low my levels were. So... maybe... I need to just wait it out. It is going to KILL me to wait, but I am out of tests so I will just make sure I don't buy more until Saturday evening. I am driving myself crazy with these BFNs so I need to focus on other things for a couple days.

Peony How did you go with d/h is he able to get home?? Geeze Its so hard sometimes to have your attempt go to plan all the time and effort and then it doesnt go they way you want! Australia Day I wont be doing much my d/h is still away so d/s and i are going to go visit my cusin who had a baby girl last week, she is in Melb so a bit of a drive will be a nice day out anyway. What are you getting up to?? So many parties and bbqs going on !!

Katie thats great that you have a friend who you can talk to it really helps when you have another set of ears and ideas .
I still think you will get a bfp

[PeonyPrincess]

He made it home. The weather is not good, but the pilots do a great job (he is only in a little plane). We had our attempt. At best it would be O+10, but if I O last night then I know I would have no chance. I didn't tell him until afterwards that it was not looking promising as I didn't want him to lose focus! My cervix at 6pm was a lot firmer but not low yet, so at least I know we did everything we could given the circumstances. I won't be holding my breath, put it that way.
We have been invited to a BBQ tomorrow. I am making pavlova. Should be great fun...eating salad and not drinking!! One of my friends knows what I am up to, but the others who will be there don't know. It is so good being able to talk to someone about it all. She wanted to sway as well (she has 2 girls and wanted a boy) and then she discovered she was pg before she got a chance. Anyway, it looks like a boy!
Enjoy your visit tomorrow Pinkin. Hope you get lots of cuddles!

KD...where are you?

I am here. If you mean where, where, I am in Tennessee LOL?

[amari]

Happy Australia Day! Have fun! Glad you got an attempt in, Peony! Sounds like you didn't miss it! That's exactly how I got preggo the very first time I ever did! GL!

Pink-Have fun, sounds like a wonderful day!

OOtb-How are you doing in the tww?

Katie-What a great friend! I think that sounds like a great plan. I have tested too early in the past and gone on to get a bfp.

How is everyone else doing?

I tested this am I think 9dpo and got a bfn. Even though it is stark white I keep holding it up to the window and I swear at a certain angle I see a shadow of a line. I'm sure it is wishful thinking, if I show it to dh he will think I am CRAZY. I went to a chocolate shop last night for a girls night out where they make their own chocolate and we helped and had a tour and ate about 6 truffles! OMG, not good for LE diet. OOPs. Well, I will try not to obsess all day and pay attention to the children I already have

Wait, you mean to tell me we were supposed obsess over our sway AND pay attention to our children this whole time?? Man. Don't worry about those truffles! Sometimes you just have to enjoy life... and chocolate!

To all my Australian Girls…Happy Australia Day! You’re all sleeping right now but should see this when you wake up!

Regarding the Chinese Gender Charts, I am too scared to look at any of them this time b/c I’ve got too much stress as it is and am just for a healthy, full-term bub. I know from experience to stay far away from things like this as it’ll screw w/my head.

Pinkin & Katie, I for one am not giving up hope on your BFPs unless AF comes. for you…there’s still time. Testing later is probably a good thing for both of you!

PeonyP - you got some sperm in there in time…You did all you could do. I’m sending you some

Amari, I’m still trying to ignore the 2ww…6 or 7 dpo but whose counting, lol. YAY…you’re 9dpo! Still early but getting closer! Since you may have seen something, test again today if you have a few tests to burn. Mmmmm…chocolate truffies……be still my hungry tummy!

to everyone else!
