TTC BOY November Chit Chat Thread - All welcome!!

[ELP]

Does that mean I O on the day when EWCM started?

I don't know, everybody is different, thats the nightmare!!! Some people continue to have ewcm after ov others it might be just before. I went by ov cramps and the change in cm to ewcm. I think my ov tied in with the small amount of ewcm I got and the cramps, then when the cramps lighten up the cm changes back to creamy I assume that I have ov'ed. I do believe that on ov days my body just shoots the egg out, no messing around lol

TTC5: Sorry to hear things didn't go as planned with the doc Maybe with all those +opks you are just going to get a late + hpt.....you never know.

Lola: Wow!!! I so excited for you!!! I don't put a lot of stock in "fortune tellers" either, but it sure is nice when they say what you want to hear. GL with your attempt.

I can not wait to see all the BFP in the next few months....so exciting!!!

I am finally getting over this cold!!! Yeah!!! I still have a slight cough, but I can deal with that. This weekend starts the holidays here : 4 of our 6 children have birthdays in November, so this weekend is the BIG party. They all seem to pick yummy cakes for me to make, this years selections are......lemon cheesecake, choc fudge cake, strawberry shortcake, and ice cream cake. I have my work cut out for me to say the least. We did "tell" the children last night and they are all thrilled, but bummed that we are not finding out the sex. Several over the children kept asking, "Are you sure you don't have a baby in there Mom" "You belly looks a little bigger". My body is just too use to being preggo. I would love to be able to hide it from the rest of our family until after Christmas.

Do you think it's best to do it 3 times in one day? Thats what I was planning on doing but I got told that sways girl cause it lowers sperm count.

Well, my DH hardly has any sperm anyway, so if this sperm thing is true, it would be a girl but I don't care....I'm not really swaying anymore, I just stick around because I've been doing it for so long. I should have put that in context more, since I'm not really a candidate to sway since we are not "optimally fertile." I am also on in infertility website and they suggested we just put as many up there as possible on O day.

Bec---No I never had taken any fertility anything, both my girls were surprises we werent trying but now that I wnat to get Preg I cant figure out when the Hell I O...So frustrating! both times I got preg coming right off the pill or BFing so its like first cycle off I O but after that Randomly, def not regularly! and I never notice any EWCM, its always the same creamy, like thin lotion kinda sorry TMI...I heard Clomid sways girl, and I also heard you can take soy isoflavones in place of clomid, have you ever heard that? What do you think about that? my testoterone levels are naturally high which would be good except they are so high that they keep me from O-ing

Anyone Advice---what do you all do before you are ready for your attempt for contraceptive? I am not sure when I will O so I am always scared when we DTD that I will get Preg w/o being able to sway with timing and such...any advice, this can be so overwhelming sometimes...

Just wanted to share something my daughter (3years old) is sitting next to me coloring singing "I am happy and smart, I am happy and Smart" and I just thought to myself I get so stressed out planning the things I want to happen, sometimes I think I need to just sit back and count my many blessings!

LBAM, it might be worth charting your previous cycles. Then you will have something to go back and look at. Makes it easier when it's charted out nicely for you.

5, was just checking out your charts again. Your temps are heaps higher this cycle than all your previous ones. Wonder why that is?

I think because we are having warmer weather? I am not sure though?

11 DPO BFN. Clear as day negative... temp shot right up today.

DP has to wear a condom unless i am due for AF in a few days or have just had it. He cooperates with me but does put on the big sad puppy eyes when i tell him to put one on.

I had a moment like that too yesterday with my daughter (2yrs in Jan), she had her 1st piggy back ride around the house, she was laughing and crying out with joy, she makes me so happy.

HEY!!! Hope everyone is doing well.

Update on me...I'm 8dpo today and temps are higher than they've ever been! Feeling super dizzy and light headed. I'm having twinges in my boobs and creamy cm. I also had a blob of ewcm a couple of days ago and I never get that!!! Hoping it's all good signs. AF is due on Sunday and I *may* test on Thursday at 10dpo. I am very nervous!
