TTC a BOY April Chit Chat Thread

[Flava]

cinss- I would drink in the 2ww no problem at all. First of all you not pregnant yet second I would drink some red wine which is actually good for you you can even have some pregnant! Go have fun!

Cinss, I get nervous about drinking in the 2ww too, but I don't think a glass or two of red wine is bad like Flava said. That being said, I would take a FRER that morning and see what it says.....at 11dpo, you will likely have an accurate reading, although many women don't get positives till later, but hey. I remember when I had my second pg/loss last year, I had to go to a function that night and was 10dpo. I was like, well, I'll just take a test to make sure I'm not pg so I can have some wine without feeling guilty, and lo and behold, I got an unexpected bfp. Hopefully that will happen for you this month!!!

POP, I will do the same thing- wake up early because I know I am temping! That is the main reason why I quit temping. I think it's a solid plan to just temp until you ovulate as long as it's not stressing you out. Do your boobs always get sore? See, mine do just from progesterone in my system, so I can never trust that, but if yours never do, that might be a good sign!

Bec, what med is that? I'm excited for you to try again, hopefully you will be lucky like so many of these ladies who have gotten nice sticky bfps after losses!

Cniss, I agree I'd take a test to make sure, but I think 1-2 drinks (maybe even 3 will be fine). Before I knew I was pregnant with DS1, my husband and I took a stay-cation. (He's such a house troll!) and we wasted our week by watching tons of TV, movies together and then playing video games together, going out to eat, and well, drinking. I didn't even remember us having sex that month so pregnancy was the LAST thing on my mind, but lo and behold, I was pregnant and he is perfectly fine. I think it was just I was so "newly" pregnant that it didn't seem to have an effect.

but definitely do whatever your heart tells you, and for sure I think 1 drink would be OK, esp. of course if you get a BFN. You did drop the BSF this month? you used preseed?

[Cinss]

Your chart looks great now POP, i didn't add my temps in on the previous Sat, Sun, Mon as you can see because DP was home then and we slept in for an hour on all of those days, and with him spooning me it was really so hot i knew my temps would be way too high to record. I guess i am lucky that he gets up so early for work that is when i put my thermomoter in and it is the same time everyday before DD wakes up.

Thankyou everyone for the advice on drinking in the 2ww, i think i will actually have 1 or 2 red wines over the course of the night, i just wont get drunk, i am getting too old for that these days anyway and i am sure my friend will need looking after too, so that is probably the best idea.

Auroara i never did the BSF, i did drink Ural for my first couple of cycles, but droped it fror the last 2, and yes this time we used lots of preeseed. I am having 0 symptoms so far, i know it is early, i just wish i had something going on though.

Lola, primolut is a synthetic form of progesterone. So I take it for 5 days and then a few days later I should bleed, which will start my cycle off. I have had to take it a few times when TTC because my cycles used to be all over the place. I had some left from a few months ago so decided to just take it. HPTs are negative too now, yahoooo.
