Cycle 1 day 1. Who's with me? *update* It's a girl! Congrats baby_bray!!!

[moter98]

how are all you ladies doing? so this is mentioned a few pages back i believe. i may be borderline hoarder, but i've been buying diapers for many months now. as soon as i started ttc. last year i was able to get diapers for 50-90% off so whenever a sale came up and i had the coupons to match i bought diapers. i have sizes NB-3. am i crazy or what, lol! i really though i would be pregnant by now. oh and i have a bunch of baby wipes too, but at least DS can use those.

Menb... It is terrifying isn't it. How are you feeling? I am exhausted. I die at night. Still nauseous too. Bbs hurt on and off. And still crampy. Cramps have been bad last couple of days but I think this would be my fertile time if I wasn't pregnant and hoping that's why I get these cramps. Since you are carrying twins what would you say have been your most predominant symptoms?

Hey mail!

Totally exhausted! Those 2 weeks of Winter Break were perfect cuz I needed so much sleep and general relaxation. These last 2 days back in school haven't been too bad--really still kinda tired in the mornings for the first hour or so of class and then totally pooped for the last 2 hours of school. Plus, I volunteer to teach an extended day for students that need extra help and that goes until 4:15.

My symptoms are extremely sore boobs--mostly nipples. TMI, but my nipples are on the smaller side, so as soon as my bra comes off, they are super sore when ANYTHING touches or even brushes up on them. My only other symptom is the abdominal cramping. It was really prevalent 2 weeks ago and a little at the beginning of last week, but this week it's been better.

My only other crazy symptom is checking the damn ass toilet paper all day! LOL!

Lol you are smart not crazy! Those thing are expensive and you will need them. I am waiting till Thursday. After my ultrasound I will start to plan my registry and buying diapers and wipes and such. I won't buy soap though. Lol I got so much soap at my first shower I never had to buy any. Lol

i will let you know if i come across any good deals! won't be as good as last year because walgreens had this infant care coupon book that could be stacked with manufacturer coupons, plus their sale, plus their register rewards! i'm hoping they come out with one again this year. otherwise amazon or target seem to be the best deals going on right now.
p.s. it feels a bit crazy since i haven't even gotten pregnant yet, but at least they last a really long time!

Well hello ladies..

Just had another kick butt workout routine with my kinect... it feels like OMG! Imma gonna die!! It's been great and I love seeing my calories burned going up and up.

On the TTC craziness... I finally got DH to go the clinic and got some penicillin for his lung infection, which is FANTASTIC!! Once the penicillin and cough suppressant he got was working, it was BD'ing away! I don't know if we got ovulation... I didn't get a chance to take an OPK over the past few days... so, who knows? Ah well... at least that's two times during my fertile period. We're going to BD tomorrow and see how that works out... DH is convinced this is it (he says he has super sick sperm.. lol) and I'm not so sure.

 

[moter98]

hope you caught the eggy colta!

I wish I could stop checking the tp. Lol sometimes I make an extra trip to the bathroom to check. My symptoms are worse in the mornings and the evenings. The sleeping is the worst though. I can't get enough. I don't remember being this tired with my first two. Maybe it's my age. I could sleep all day. And am now getting easily 14-16 hours a day. It's crazy for the person who used to get 4 hr per night.

 

[mailcmm]

Good luck colta and good luck with your workout. So I went to motherhood to buy the belly band thingy. Decided just to get some materity pants. They are exactly like the belly band but already attached to the jeans and I thought way more comfy. Also y'all need to register at zulily if you haven't already. They have gorgeous stuff at really great prices. My mom bought me a bunch of gorgeous maternity tops for about 10 bucks a piece. And they are all embellished and really pretty. I won't need those for a while yet, but I am done with my pants. I can button them fine, I just need to stand for the rest of they day. Lol

I still check the tp every time I go to the bathroom. Don't think I will ever get over it.

 

[mailcmm]

Me either. It's just something I have to do. Us tomorrow. Getting more and more scared. Just hope everything is ok. About to head to work. Too tired to go but I have to. Hoping I will be done quickly. Is anyone else's brain fried? I can't remember anything and my mind totally wanders.

 

[colta]

Well ladies, I'm officially in the tww.

Not sure how I feel about this cycle. To be honest I feel pretty down about it. We only bd'd twice during my fertile period and there was a day inbetween... I dunno, not too hopeful at all... I guess we'll just wait and see.

Mail - good luck with your ultrasound tomorrow! I'm sure everything will be great!

 

[moter98]

That's plenty bd colta! Stay positive!!

 

[mailcmm]

Yeah colta. With both kids and my chemical and mc we only bd once. The last 2 cycles were the only ones that we actually dtd more then once. You could have conceived. So exciting!

I am home a soon to be sleeping. What an exhausting day. Us tomorrow and ready to see my bean. Night all.

Day 3 of awesome workouts with my kinect! Man... Dance Central kicks my behind like nothing else. I literally sweat bullets when I play that game... but I play for about 45 mins and burn about 350-400 calories, so who can complain?

Mail, Motor - thanks for the support and cheering up... I really needed it. I let myself get into such a funk sometimes. After I posted that I fired up the xbox and played some games and felt great afterwards... so I think from now on when I get down I'm just going to work out... get some endorphins pumping.

 

[television]

morning everyone, well im so pleased with myself i havent done any opt and just bedding every other night, really trying to take a more relaxed approach to this cycle and fingers crossed it will happen. Im even planning on not buying no preg tests until im late(if i am) . Good luck mail hope everything is ok and looking good sure it will x hope everyone else is ok

 

[mailcmm]

Colta... Keep up the good work.

Television... Thanks and I am glad to see you are still around. Hope your relaxed approach works for you. Ttc can be so stressful.

 

[mailcmm]

1245 won't be here fast enough. My stomach is in knots. Getting the kids off to school and then it's time for my am nap. Lol

 

[moter98]

Colta, happy you found something to cheer you up.

Television, good for you! I'm taking the relaxed approach about bd, but still temping and opk's. Just can't resist the urge to poas!

Mail- good luck today. Give us an update.

 

[moter98]
