TTC girl- August 2012

[HopeandDreamG]

My attempt #2 will be in August! Thanks for starting the thread, H&D!!
Wishing everybody lots of luck!!

If we get pregnant in August, we'll have May babies!! May babies are the sweetest...I know because I was one!! LOL!! (Totally kidding) But seriously, we'll miss the worst of the summer if we get pregnant now!!

My first is a MAy baby too and he is the sweetest child EVER!!

So now I am on this board!! It seems as if AF just showed I thought for sure all the signs I was seeing was going to turn into a BFP, but sadly no! So I am going to start up supplements again! I was taking Vitex, SP, low aspirin, but this time I will only stay on Vitex and SP for maybe 5-7 days then stop so I can get a pos OPK. Last month it took forever! I do not think I will J&D. I don't know if I did it right, I literally ran out of bed and peed everything out, no kegel, etc. (read AS post and I think I flushed everything out).

Cd7 here, and my last day of soy for this cycle. I think I might have a cyst because my temps are still crazy high for me. I even took a hpt last night, even though I had such a heavy flow this month, because my temps should be back to around 97.2 now, but they're still at post-o levels. I hope it doesn't keep me from oing this month.

My plan this month:

LE diet
Baby aspirin 2x a week
Soy isoflavones cd 3-7 (180 mg)
No vitex or sp this month, because I was still testing slightly positive on cd 1 and didn't want to risk it.
Exercise 60 mins a day (prescribed by dr, so I need to keep it up)

We'll do as many attempts as we have opportunity for, because dh is scheduled to work all this month. It's a 4 hour drive, so even if he's not staying on site we may not have an opportunity. But we're working on it!

Shell is this your first soy month?

Hope, I feel your pain, when ttc drags on and on its so frustrating. I never ever imagined that 7 months after starting we'd still be ttc.

Hopefully August is our month!
Maybe the olympic spirit will make those little spermies swim that little bit faster and try harder LOL. And as the official theme color is PINK maybe it's the pink ones that will take out gold!!

I wish my temp would flipping rise already. 5th attempt last night (2nd positive opk) and it was so hard chore like last night ergh. DH said he can probably manage one more (bless him, he does try) so if todays opk is positive then we will do another attempt tonight but I think that's us done and dusted for the month.

Good luck everyone!!

2nd soy month. Last month I had several false surges before I o'd n cd 16.

Beadinmum, I think it's great that your going on a holiday, I know it will make bd a but tricky, but maybe a refreshing trip away is just what your body needs

Shell, Do you mean you were testing positive on an OPK? Was it with FMU? I've read that the only ones you can read with FMU are the digitals. Just wanted to make sure you knew that info, too!

Good luck, girlie! I hope this month belongs to all of us!!

Thanks Lassie! I really hope so! I'm going all in this month. We'll be BDing for the next few days and through O. I would LOVE a girl, but at this point in my life, I just really want a sweet baby.

For the false surges, it was with a cb digital opk, following the directions. I actually had to buy 3 last month because of it. If you're asking about the vitex/sp thing, I was still getting slight positive hpts. Chemical pregnancy last month.

[BeadinMom]

Ohhh...I am so sorry, my girl. That sucks. Are you sure it was a chemical? I wouldn't think vitex or SP could cause false positive HPTs. I had bleeding with all 3 of my pregnancies. Is it possible you could actually still be pregnant?
