[CLOSED GROUP] TTC to 1st diaper - Welcome Freya! Congrats to fezzle!

[LillyTame]

Thanks ladies, but I switched from vaginal to oral temping this cycle, so temps are going to be a little different. I'm not happy with this months sporadic temps and I didn't take one today Twag, that was yesterday. Hate to sound whiney but I'm over it. IF I did OV early and just missed the surge then I hope it was around our 3 days of BDing, if not oh well. OH seems to be over it as well. He started off strong then just fell into "My back hurts", "my stomach is upset", "I'm achey from tennis" etc etc so I can just tell he is over it as well, so even if I did get a surge now we are just done.

I would break out (or go buy) some SexxyWear and just entice him. See how much his back hurts, then! I hate to be like sometimes having a serious good SexxyTime no matter what's up with TTC is the way to go, but it's true. Get his (and your) engines started, because you are a Sexxy woman who he should not resist!

Admittedly, I'm kind've a freak whose husband cannot resist anything (specifically me) wrapped in SexxyWear.

Sure is quiet around here! Anyone have an update? I have been tired and slightly nauseous, but strangely my skin is clearer than normal. I hope you're all doing well. This week is dragging for me.

 

[ClandestineTX]

Almost ovulation here... sooooo close.... but still not yet! Despite hubster's minor food poisoning yesterday, which caused an unplanned break in our monthly marathon, have gotten back on top of things - even though we made him nearly three hours late for work this morning!

 

[Ameli]

Ha! Good for you - you gotta do what you gotta do. Food poisoning or not. Glad he's ok though.

 

[Mrs. JJ]

Just waiting to O

 

[ClandestineTX]

Ditto... feels like torture. And despite the best intentions, it's distracting me 100% today. I have ADHD so that's not a tremendous feat; however, I'm not doing myself any favors wasting time today!

 

[txbiscuit]

I'm still a little nauseous, but feeling way better in general. I'm jealous of your clear skin, Ameli! I have been breaking out in the worst way.

In more fun news, my bump is starting to grow and my energy is returning a bit. All the important people have been told we're expecting, so we're just waiting for our 20-week anatomy scan to make sure Baby Tx is healthy (and to get confirmation that she hasn't grown a willy in the past few weeks). Although I'm still throwing up too much to say I really *enjoy* pregnancy so far, feeling the baby move every so often and having more energy is helping me understand why some people say they absolutely love it. I'm really excited to see how pregnancy is for everyone in here.

As far as life in general goes, I've been very busy with work, so I'm really looking forward to the long (U.S. holiday) weekend this weekend. I have a wedding to attend, but we may also go out on the lake in our friend's boat. I also want to insist that OH and I sit down and book a "last vacation before baby" somewhere. Does anyone else have any fun plans?

 

[ClandestineTX]

I've heard those vacations called a "Babymoon" I can't believe how quickly your pregnancy seems to be going (LOL, for me at least) - so glad that all is well!

Mostly just keeping up our exercise and more yard demo this weekend. Nothing exciting at all!

 

[Ameli]

Wow, I agree, your pregnancy seems to be flying by! But of course, I'm sure it feels quite different to you. Glad you're gettting into the part where you feel pretty good. Must make it feel more real now that everyone knows.
Yes, waiting to ovulate is very boring and also can kind of consume you. Hopefully this next cycle a few more baby crops (as Snackimals called it a while back) spring up.

 

[Twag]

ok so got my digi result this morning eek so feels more real to DH & and I no real symptoms other than damn tired all the time my skin seems to be great (normally skin breaks out for AF), nails seem to be growing at rapid speed and are strong (normally snap & paper thin) but my hair does seem to have turned fuzzy

Going to book my doctor appointment next week

This weekend is a long weekend but I am studying boo

 

[LillyTame]

Awww look at all the baby tickers in here I'm so glad you decided not to hide your ticker TX, I think this is what we need! And I hope we will all have preggo tickers soon! I think you were right about my body wanting to be pyscle buddies with Snack lol...I'm definitely closer to her now! Still early for her but we should end up being in the tww together!

So it looks like my body is finally gearing up for OV (you were right Clan, just took a few extra days), I'm hoping it does...but I'm worried about the length of my LP now that OV is a few days late We'll see. I started vaginally temping again...waiting for a dip 97.45 today and I got a pos OPK last night and this morning...so maybe tomorrow I'll get a dip

Looks like there are quite a few of us waiting to OV within a week of each other...come ooooooon May....I hope you still have a little dust left for us!

 

[Twag]

Did that boat load I sent over not arrive yet?? Right I am sending a plane full now

 

[ClandestineTX]

I think there's several of us about to ovulate this week! I do hope this season of baby crops is still in 2.5 weeks from now, when (hopefully) another load of us will be getting BFPs! Because, seriously, I need something to work right - and this would be a fantastic something!

 

[Snackimals]

Hurray for O day! to ALL! (that are about to ovulate)

Sorry I havent kept up here. With all the fab BFP's from last week, everyones' personal journals have been ON FIRE! I promise to make this thread a priority to respond to!

Alright Lil, Clandie, Mrs.JJ..... lets get this ovulation-show on the ROAD!

 

[ClandestineTX]

I'm trying, I promise!!! And my pm OPK is definitely lighter than this morning's OPK, so I think first thing this morning (darkest OPK this cycle) was the tail of my surge... now, just have to wait for the temp to rise and keep hubster's energy up until it does!

 

[lamago]

getting my day 24 blood drawn today.. Im actually late in going but I ovulated day 15 I think so hope it's still on time. First cycle of clomid this month since I have low progesterone.

So AF is due next Tuesday but it often surprises me so well see.

 

[txbiscuit]

Good luck with the blood draw lamago! Hopefully the Clomid helps your progesterone levels. FX!!

 

[LillyTame]

So we have 1 tww'er and 3 waiting to/in the process of OV! I hope this will be a fun 2ww with lots of symptom spotting and congratulations at the beginning of June!

 

[ClandestineTX]

@Lilly - I gotta know if we're doing the SS thing or not before I confirm ovulation!
