DH said he is getting a vasectomy after this one

((hugs)) my DH has mentioned a vas for when we're "done" but it just sits so wrong with me, so I understand how crummy that can feel.

Skrimpy thanks for looking, i can't say i was under too much stress, i'm not worried about it anymore, if it happens again i will get concerned, but i just have this feeling that April will be my month.

I hope so Cinss!

I have to go on the treadmill ("I work out")


I don't like avocado and really don't want to make guacamole all the time from it. Any good tips how to eat it? What else can i do with it how to cook with it?

tnx!

I like slices in sandwiches, and also with scrambled eggs and salsa

I think your timing will be perfect! THat is what I was going for--I was hoping for O-4, O-2 and O. But for some screwball reason, I O'ed the same day I got + opk (that had never happened before--I always O 24-36hrs after a +opk) on CD12 (I also never O on CD12, always CD13 or 14 or occasionally 15), so I ended up with O-3, O-1 and O+1. Horrible timing. I thought the high temp on CD13 was a fluke, so that's why we DTD that day. But then my temp stayed up. I know everyone says timing doesn't matter, but I can't stomach the fact that I didn't DTD on O day! We DTD around midnight on CD11, so I guess it could have been close to O, depending on what time I ovulated that next day... but who knows. The only thing I am happy about was that I O'ed right on the full moon, but I doubt that holds very much weight. I also O'ed on the cusp between moon signs... I would have O'ed in a boy moon sign if I hadn't O'ed early.

Hobber I would guess you conceived from the day 11 BD and to me that sounds like good timing. I know from experience that it's impossible not to obsess now, but try not to feel too many regrets.

My biggest regret w/ Honor is that I let myself have a really crummy pregnancy the first half...I wish I'd taken better care of myself and not worried so much that I didn't get my DG. I don't want to sound preachy but I would like to help another mama not feel so much pain (and I feel it was unfair to Honor).

Overall you had made the changes to change your own internal environment... I do think there is something to timing, but I think diet/lifestyle makes a MUCH bigger difference. Keeping you in my thoughts

Hobber, you only 'think' it's a girl. How can you 'know'? You can't feel defeated based on a few predictions. You just don't know until the baby is born! Why do you think that timing is messed up? Was your CM still EW on your O+1 attempt?

Yes, I had a lot of CM on CD13, as well as my cervix being "SHOW". I really thought I O'ed CD13. But because my temp never went down, I can't say for sure. The night before I had the weird high temp, I didn't sleep well, and was awake for a long time before I took my temperature in the morning (I was still in bed, but was awake about a 1/2 hr). So that could have caused me to THINK I O'ed on CD12 when I actually did O on CD13? But I will never know. It doesn't matter now, because what is done is done. But I am just such a catastrophic thinker. In hindsight, swaying was probably a really bad choice for me. I wish we could have afforded high tech.
