Morning girls.
Ok.... I now have my first OWT under my bed lol a little boy outfit, can't hurt, right? lol
Also, found some gelatine capsules in my health food store and am now filling them with NYF's and gelatine so no more nasty concoctions/drinks YAYY!! Only down fall is I have to take like over 30 pills a day now HAHA oh well better than the drink!

TTC5 are you trying this month now? Or just getting the OWT outfit for future prep? I bought the most adorable little outfit last year when I was shopping for another friend who, of course, was having a boy. Like it seems like everyone does. Anyhow I have it in my lingerie drawer now, LOL ...

Welcome Cheekymoo!

Thanks for letting me know that y'all did get pg 1st try, MFC and 3PNB! Encouraging! But I definitely am not expecting it. I still can't believe both my girls happened so fast. Well the 1 on BCP's didn't exactly "happen fast" since obvi we weren't trying, LOL!

I haven't been on all day! Life has gotten busy lately for some crazy reason! Hope everyone is doing well :-) Still wondering about our Skrimpy and that baby girl!!! I know her due date was end of month but I also remember her saying that she thought it might happen early this time. So exciting!

Begonia - I sell childrens clothing online and we just had a new line come in and I put a size 0000 away for us HEHE

Oh, and not sure we are playing it by ear now, depends on how well I can diet and supp/drink the next 4ish weeks... so hard with soo many people living in my home. One with a severe mental illness just to name a few..

Thanks for the welcome girls,

I am sorry to hear you are putting on so much weight- but it must mean your doing this swaying thing right! I am eating so much of all the things i used to avoid I am too scared to even weigh myself ( and i am only 2 weeks in!). I am also hoping it happens quickly so the scales won't be too scary when the BFP eventually comes.
I am struggling with my PH ATM...I was expecting it to have risen at least a little, admittedly I haven't started the ASG yet but aren't some of the other vit supplements supposed to help?? MY PH is 5, and even at O time it was still 5!!
Those that have done the baking soda drinks etc how long do you think it took for your PH to rise?? I am wondering if it's best to start now 1 or 2 a day for the next 6 weeks?? Mabye more close to trying time? Would love some advice from you more experienced girls!

Thanks for this...I am going to try this this next attempt and then if I am not pregnant I am going to let whatever happens, happens. I got pregnant with my DDs so easily and find this soooo stressful...it is all consuming and I don't want it to be this way for much longer.

Someone posted {sorry too many pages back} that I should do opposite of my DDs....well my DD1 was a one time hit on OV day and my youngest was frequent BD thru OV and the boy we lost was 4 day abstinence and then DTD two days in a row, ) and )+1, so timing wise they are all different and not "according to theory of what works for each gender"....man this was easier when TTC was fun!

This is exactly why I don't think the timing or frequency matters that much. Atomic conceived her sons in many different bd patterns, she told me. I'm trying the 2 day abstinence, then bd on 0-2, then on O the first month, and if that doesn't work, I'm going to the SMEP plan (Deanna's plan) where you bd more frequently....its one that is used for infertility. Although....both times I got pg this year, we bd on o-1 and then on 0, and I think also on 0+1 the first time. I just don't put too much stock in the timing aspect. I would definitley NOT bd like 0-3 or 0-2 and no more for a boy, I do think you need to bd on O day for sure.

[LolaInLove]

okay girls quick question....if I am doing the 4 day abstinence and then DTD O-2 and O day. when do I start the four day abstinence....I get two days of +opk on CD 13 and 14.
thanks!

I would consider your O to be on CD14, so bd on day 8, then on 12, then 14. Do you think you actually O on the 2nd day? I would guess so.

[LolaInLove]

Or just have DH "release" on CD8!

[QUOTE=TTC5;33582]From what I understand outside the body lemon is very acidic but once it hits us inside it is very alkaline?[/QUOTE

EXACTLY! I brew a quart of green tea, then put it over ice so it is cold, then add lemon and Stevia and kill 3 birds with one stone there.

Welcome, Cheekymoo! Don't be shy, we are all over the place so ask away. TTC5, I definitely take about 30 pills a day when swaying, but like princess said.....kinda wondering if I should.....
