I guess I didn't ovulate yet? Temp dropped way down again. Might be due to all the drinking I've been doing.

I'm so so sorry Hbuhs!

I'm driving myself CRAZY. I'm 39 so this all feels really last minute and I know women have babies later, but we all know it gets harder too. Ugh! Thanks Healthygirl I need all the luck I can get and every one of those 6 attempts!

I have ABSOLUTELY NO SYMPTOMS at 8DPO. XX you had no symptoms at all, right? Shouldn't I be noticing something? It's so hard to concentrate on anything I really have to stop thinking about all this. But how?!

[HealthyGirl]

Tm29, I will be 35 in a few days and feel the clock is ticking for me.
I'm 8 DPO as well and don't feel anything except for occasional very mild pms cramping.

Hope we both get our BFP this cycle. How long have you been TTC?
When will you test?
I will test tomorrow.

Yep, I had zero symptoms! All I had was a semi decent chart! I couldn't even get a positive opk either, which was strange because I always did! My chart didn't start to look promising until 9DPO when I had a second temp rise. I thought, huh that's strange. If my acupuncturist didn't give me a clue, I would have been clueless!!

FX and [emoji120]🏻 for you all!!

Thanks XX - Oh I love your story!!

Healthygirl - 35 sounds YOUNG to me now, but I'm not trying to make out you're crazy to worry. I was worrying at 35 too - but I got pregnant first month trying. I got pg first month again last year, but I had an mc and since then my cycle vanished and it only returned for this last attempt. So I will feel VERY lucky if I catch the first ovulation.

All in all, I have been swaying 3 months before the pg last year and 4 months since the mc. I am fat and anxious! I don't think I dare to test tomorrow, I'm so scared of seeing a stark BFN. Oh you are braver than I am. Incredible we o'd on the same day. I am going to cross everything for you!

[tm29]

XX - and other moms of boys, could you tell me what you mean by a snack? Missing out on snacks is the thing which sounds hardest for you all about the pink sway. What kind of snacks do you normally eat? My sway snacks are so full of calories, I can't imagine you ate that much - particularly if you, like you said XX, ate around 1500-1800 on a non-gym day.

I'd be so grateful to know!

Not snacking has been a big change for me. I liked to snack on cookies, cake and chocolate mostly. Sometimes I would be healthy and have fruit or yogurt. I was probably snacking all the time when TTC DS2 as I was home with DS1 and I eat more when I'm at home especially as I also like to bake!

I used to love snacking on whole grain crackers (vitaweets ) with crunchy peanut butter. I would have it twice a day ( morning tea and afternoon). Sometimes chocolate too.

Oh I miss snacking so much. I used to be great at eating just a handful of popcorn or a few nuts or a cookie, a peanut butter honey sandwich, a few crackers with cream cheese, a few slices of cheese, a joghurt, maybe a few pieces of salami or ham with cheese or toast, etc.

I think because I normally ate quite small amounts while snacking that the calories didn't go up too much.
