1 day DPO and in need of buddies :)

[korink26]

Ummm....well there's a line! But, not feeling good about this at all because it should be way darker by now. Also dreamt I went for an us and had like 15 ppl in htr room and dr said there was nothing there.

 

[confusedprego]

Yay! Kels we will just be happy for now about this and think positively! I think that's a GREAT line! Are you going to call the doc or wait a little? I can't tell you how many tests I took with this pregnancy and I feel like even now I convince myself something is wrong way too often! I think until we can poke and mess with them and feel them wiggle do we feel more confident with our pregnancies and even then we still have our moments! So congrats! I'm excited for you! One day at a time from here!

 

[confusedprego]

Oh and Sam - give the one a day nap some time! We switched Oakley to one nap a day around 12 months because he started sleeping so horribly at night again and it took a good month before he adjusted properly. We now get a 2-2.5hr nap out of him most days when at first it was like 30 minutes to an hour at most but he sleeps so much better at night.

Alyssa I'm so sorry you haven't Od yet. I really hope you do before seeing the doctor. I wish I could take it all away for you and be able to let you get pregnant instantly. I'll be thinking about you. Keep us posted.

Kelsey wow!!! I knew it. Keep testing the next few days and see if line gets darker. I think it looks great.You're still early. You're just now due for AF. As for the dream.. I bet you dreamt that bcz you feel so negative towards everything bcz your afraid it won't happen but IT DID!! I can't wait to see the progression the next few weeks.

Sam I can only in imagine the naps will get better. Keep being consistent and I'd do the one nap a day. I hope all works out for you. Andrew hasn't felt any kicks yet. Just like you they're sparatic and never consistent. Hopefully soon he'll be able to feel.

Lindsay hope you're doing well. Happy 18 weeks! I'll be 22 tmrw!!

Going to be super hot here today. 90+ degrees. I might lay out but I might not either lol. Any plans for this mother's day weekend

 

[pinksmarties]

wow Kels!! I can see that line, its a great line!!!! congratulations.

Linds - thanks for that. I did start a thread about it and other said it took a while for their LO to increase nap time length back up again. I hope so anyway as I had barely sat down with a coffee yesterday after tidying and then getting tea sorted!


Rach - wow 22 weeks where did the time go!!

 

[confusedprego]

Yea Sam, I'm not going to lie - I thought I had lost my nap-time 'free-time' for good!! I was REALLY frustrated with it but the only thing that kept me going with it is I knew O would only get 1 nap at daycare a day and he needed to be adjusted and we saw improvement in his nighttime sleeping habits pretty quickly. Hang in there!! it will get better!

 

[babydust818]

I can not even believe Oakley will be 2 in 2 1/2 months. I can't even believe we're all still talking this many years later! Absolutely nuts! So thankful for you all though. Glad i have you girls to talk to because i have no clue what to expect with LO.

 

[confusedprego]

It blows my mind how we've all kept in contact and how much I've been through in my life with you girls! Plus the fact that Oakley is going to be 2 in a couple months is just crazy talk! He's gotten to be such a little boy - every month he's doing something totally new - he already knows most of his letters! It's amazing!

 

[korink26]

I know, I need to not be such a negative nelly. The line looks very light in the picture, and it's actually much darker in person. But, I keep comparing everything to Khloe, and my line seemed much darker for hers and I had brown spotting at 4 weeks and my temps were much higher. Guess I need to just stop it and see what happens. Plan to go to the store today to pick up more tests (I really hope I don't get the same cashier, but it's usually the same one).
Sorry to keep talking about myself, but my other stress is that I've had horrible headaches these past 2 weeks, and I've been taking my regular headache medicine and cold pills and all the stuff I shouldn't be! Plus, my sister has been TTC for almost 1 1/2 years, and it has her so down and out and I'm TERRIFIED to tell her. I just hope by the time I tell her, she'll already be pregnant herself.
Seriously, why can't we all live closer so we can meet up after work and you can all calm me down!
I'm not much help with naps, because Khloe on her own decided to cut out the 2nd nap way before I was ready
It is crazy how long we've all stayed in touch, it puts it in perspective when you say that Oakley will be 2!! I think we were all friends right before Oakley was conceived, right?

 

[babydust818]

Lol if I could be over to Wisconsin before you get home I'd be there! How far is Wisconsin from Indiana anyway? You aren't too too far. All is going to be okay though. Just remember every pregnancy is different. Every test, symptom, etc will be different. Don't you worry unless there's cramps with bleeding.

I want honest opinions. What do you think of the name Rowan and Zyler?

 

[pinksmarties]

I love Rowan!! I mentioned that to OH a few weeks ago.

Its great we have all been friends for so long. I still have my cbfm gathering dust, I think I'll try to sell it on ebay.

Kels - its only natural to compare these test pg to the one with Klhoe. As this pg was a surprise I had been having a few drinks and some meds too. I am sure all will be okay. I can imagine how difficult it will be to tell your sister and fx she get her bfp very soon. Even so I am sure she will be thrilled for you but as we all know it can still be a inwardly hard for her.

Linds - thats how I am feeling with regards his naps!! I was so upset yesterday I burst out crying (these hormones not helping). One of the reason I was trying to be consistent as he was getting one nap at the nursery more often than not. He only slept for 55 mins today with them so that made me feel a bit better!! Just wondering if the teething isn;t helping matters.

Would be great to see you all, slightly longer trip for me (maybe?) across the pond!!

 

[CallMeAL1982]

Maybe I should buy one of your dusty CBFMs. My doc called, no O yet. He said it looks like it might be coming soon but with the pcos hard to tell.

Congrats, Kels. Happy and healthy 9 months!

 

[korink26]

I'll post more when I get to work but just wanted to quick post a progress picture because that I can't do at work!

 

[confusedprego]

woohoo!! looks great Kels!!

 

[confusedprego]

Yay, Alyssa! Just looked at your chart! woohoo for the positive OPK and a the beginning of a temp rise this morning!! keep up that BD!!!!! How you feeling? Feel like it's the real thing??

 

[confusedprego]

Oh and Rach I just love Rowan! That's a great name! Zyler's good too but I like Rowan the best! I think Zyler for a girl would be a cute name but def works for a boy too!

 

[babydust818]

Thanks girls for the feedback. Still undecided. Are you going to use Rowan, Sam?

Kelsey guess what? Your line is getting darker!!!

Alyssa woohoo to pos opk!!!!!

 

[korink26]

HAPPY 30 WEEKS SAM (OMG, 30 WEEKS?!?!)--How are you feeling?
HAPPY 22 WEEKS RACH (OMG, 22 WEEKS?!?!)---How are you feeling?
HAPPY 18 WEEKS LINDSAY (DAY LATE)----How are you feeling? I can't believe how far along everybody is! Lindsay, are you still feeling sick??
Rachael I really like Rowan too----I've never heard Zyler before, but I think it's a really catchy name! Actually, now that I've said it a couple times, I really like Zyler! Both are great names---do you and Andrew agree on them both?? and yea I don't actually think Indiana and WI are too far apart!?
YYAAAYYY ALYSSA!! I'll be stalking your chart now!! Do you have any appts soon that your dr. can verify if it's the real deal!? I have every crossables crossed for you, and said a quick prayer. How is your kitty doing, and the new boy in your class?
Anybody have any fun weekend plans? Not sure what we're doing Sunday, we have always had a cook out at our house for both our sides, but this year Ryan is SO BUSY coaching baseball that he's hardly been home in 2 weeks so we're not doing it this year.

 

[confusedprego]

Kels - I'm so excited for you!! Did you call your doc today?

We are going to Kirk's aunt's house on Sunday and will get to meet Oakley's second cousin that was born a couple weeks ago - I can't wait! I need to call my mom and see if she wants to do something tomorrow for Mother's day or maybe go out to dinner tonight. My family typically doesn't do much for Mother's or Father's day. Hoping Kirk isn't planning anything. I turn 30 this Weds and hoping he doesn't do anything for that either.

We get a new roof on our house tomorrow and hopefully siding next week - that will be the greatest Mother's Day/Birthday gift of all!!!! Expensive gift but so awesome!! Our house looks just hideous from the outside right now. It's over 35 years old and nothing has ever been replaced so it's really due!!

Rach - I saw some of the names your friend posted on your comment on Facebook and now I'm kind of obsessed with the name Orion for this baby but I don't know if it's weird to have two babies that have names that start with the same letter.

 

[babydust818]

That is actually my sister in law! She spells his name Oryin. I'm actually going to his 1st birthday party tonight. I don't think Oakley and Orion are too similar. Yeah both start with O, but O's are unique as it is!
