All joking aside, he loves having kids- He just has to talk it to death, hahaha!

    Side note- We are making an offer on a 5bdr house that is 2,500 sq ft! It has 3 full baths, full finished basement with a laundry room, office, and an oversized 2 car garage. It's completely move in ready!It's in a fantastic neighborhood. I'm so excited!!!

    xx- I know! My husband goes from "ABSOLUTELY NO MORE KIDS!" to "ok let's try for this girl!" every couple of weeks, I swear. Drives me crazy. I've just started ignoring him. I think he realizes that it's going to go my way and we will get pregnant again, lol.

    That house sounds amazing and like everything I would want! I would love to move but our house is a great size (just needs some work) and it's near impossible to find a 5 bedroom home around here. It's very rare. Our house could easily have 6 bedrooms whenever we get around to renovating the basement but that's still a couple of years away. We're doing ok with 4 for now. I hope your offer is accepted!

    I'm getting nervous about TTC too. I really really want an April baby but then I worry about conceiving right away b/c my diet hasn't been strict. I've been more consistent with exercising though so I'm hoping that balances things out. The last 2 days have been awful food-wise! Going away party for friends yesterday (pigged out on chips and dip and pasta salad) and father's day BBQ today where I, again, pigged out on chips and dip and pasta salad plus 2 hot dogs :/ Back on track tomorrow!

    Is anyone using OPKs? I picked up some $ store ones to try out this cycle but I never did get a postive and I tested for a full week. I'm sure I must have missed my surge. I had a pretty dark test one day and it was the one day where I only had an hour and a half hold. I thought a 2 hour hold was enough but reading online it seems most people hold for 3-4 hours. So I'm thinking I would have had a positive had I held my pee for longer. Ugh, what a pain.

    potato chips have been a daily part of my sway - they have heaps of potassium, empty carbs & fats so go for it! I always do my opk in the evening & I just make sure that I havent drank heaps in the 2hrs before so the urine is more concentrated. Good luck with your sway!

    I finally got this girl diet down! 11:00am donut while grocery shopping. I was up at 6:00am getting everyone ready for church. Tons of coffee from 12-3:00pm. Dinner salad with veggie crumbles, banana, red licorice. Before bed I had a chocolate chip cookie and air popped popcorn.

    FX and GL to those getting ready to attempt! I'm stuck in limbo. Still no AF and am going to keep BDing every 4 days until AF or BFP. This is like the longest cycle I've ever had! If AF does come, it will probably be super heavy and awful [emoji20]

    I used supermarket OPK's for about 10 months and i managed to detect a positive each time, with fade-ins but i stopped checking that in Feb this year because i could never pinpoint ovulation and that was when i believed in Shettles. Deffo buying them again when its attempt time and hopefully they work just as well.. Im going for one attempt at +OPK for our first cycle and fingers crossed that works! I always tested daily at 3pm as i knew to avoid the morning and for some reason that worked for me. I dont think i would manage to hold pee in for almost 4 hours anyway so i never did that.

    Is it just of late you are struggling with diet? Ive been on LE since Feb, albeit loosely of late as i stopped adding my food intake and cals to the app etc.. My mind was in a spin last week about frequency and i think im driving Atomic mad having opened a can of worms and a ton of questions for her again But i thought i knew what i was doing and then all of a sudden i started reading up on frequency again and changed my mind completely!!
    Now im back at cranberry for DH and antihistamines!!!!!!! I mean... hurry up July attempt i need this over with! x

    I am so frustrated! The committee which met to decided whether we could do IVF PGD couldnt come to a decision last night & have deferred the decision untll later (I dont know when I will know yet). I am so over this. I could have handled a yes/no answer but I think this is even worse! We have been waiting for this decision for 9 months already & I am just so over it. It doesnt help that I am going to ovulate next week either & I was mentally ready for them to say no.

    Bfn this morning at dpo 13 or 14 not even a squinter, so disappointed, not going to test again, just wait for af to arrive, af is taking its sweet time, which seems more cruel but need to get back on track with my diet, it has slowly got worse over this 2 ww!
