General chatter while we wait (and commentary on the "pull out method")

[FutureMrs]

Omg gigs I love that painting!! I am set to O either today or tomorrow.. So tempted to do the deed without protection but terrified of Zika as we are set to get married in Mexico in April! I am so impatient and a couple of glasses of wine deep! Lol

 

[DobbyForever]

Aww future that is a dilemma. Go with your gut!

Gigs, love the finished version. You finished so quickly! Yay for the garden bed.

Well SO won't have sex with me. So I'm out before I even started. Again lol but not lol

 

[claireybell]

Morning chicks :wave:

Gigs, your finished Art is bloody awesone girl!!!! I'd keep that one aswell you should also do some smaller canvas pieces like 3 together that make one long picture.. You could gets loads up together & sell them at those Fete/Craft fayres, they'd sell instantly! Ooh & when are u thinking of poas - tomorrow? Hehee

Dobby i like your Stepdads thinking Lol! I used to tell SO that near my ovulation i wasnt due to ov yet or hadnt had a temp shift etc so there was no stress in ttc hahaa it worked! I think it'll happen when it happens but blokes (esp when unplanned stuff) they always overreact at first & then calm down after a day or so of thinking practically!

MrsG hows your cm looking? I see a temp dip on your chart yesterday.. Wonder if its a pre-ov dip eee show us ye opks lol

Future, congrats on getting hitched in Mexico come April The Zika maybe abit more under control then.. Also, would you mind not getting drunk at your wedding?

Hi Breea, your a Plum hehe! Hope your doing ok?

Ah Camps, sorry your sickness is giving you grief still, hopefully it'll pass in just a matter if weeks.. Mine faded away around 10.5-11wks ish, 4.5 wks of sicky hell!

Morning y'all

Dobs, get him drunk during the game and sex him up! Why was he refusing you sex yesterday?

Future, cb brings up a good point. It would be no fun to be sober at your wedding. I'd just wait...April is sooo soon.

Cb i have an art show next month, and possibly another in april. We'll see! I was talking to an artist yesterday who said her prints make the most so i think I'll be making a few of those, too...

I'm debating if I should risk wasting a FRER this morning...only 8 dpo though.

 

[gigglebox]

Well i was going to test thinking i had 4 FRER's, but it turns out i only have 2, one old style and one new style. Guess I'll be waiting until at least tomorrow...

 

[claireybell]

I know id want to get really pissed at my wedding recrption ha ha!

Ooh testing tomo gigs yay!! I def reckon you'll may some $$cha-ching$$ with your prints!!

 

[FutureMrs]

Gigs I'm excited for you to test!!

Ladies yes I'd like to but I honestly get the worst hangovers ever.. Like I dread them so much lol it's horrible. I love wine so much and it takes a bit to actually get me intoxicated but then I'm bed ridden for like 24 hours.

If my periods stay on schedule I'll be fertile while we're in Mexico so who knows maybe will make a wedding night baby 😉 Because you are right gigs April is just around the corner! I'm not sure how I feel about being super Prego in the dead of winter assuming everything goes well but we will make it work!

Congrats on the art show gigs that is awesome!

 

[FutureMrs]

Dobs I'm with everyone else! What man can resist football, beer, food and sex fingers crossed you can get some!

 

[DobbyForever]

He finally opened up at like 4am after the longest bj ever. When I was preggo, his life turned upside down. I was so sick and constantly needed help/ to go to the er/ to go to the doctor and then once I lost my it I was suicudal so he was constantly on edge/ driving over. His boss recommended him for a promotion and he hasn't finished the certification because he has been taking care of me. So "now that I am finally able to focus on work and you're kicking ass st work and I'm kicking ass at work, if I don't put my penis in you then you can't get pregnant and sick so at the very least I' not having sex with you until I get my first certification." Which is fine but he needs three for the job. Then what next? Until I get tenure? Until we buy a house together? Like there will always be a reason. I know my body handles pregnancy terribly but ffs. Use a condom or pullout at this point I just want him. End rant

Gigs, don't use the frer until tomorrow. The art show sounds fun!

CB, I used to do that as well. He gets performance anxiety/anxiety when I would tell him I was Oing.

Future, aww you poor thing. Do you hydrate when you drink? And it may be gross, but when I am drunk af I honestly force myself to gag before bed. I'm super Squamish so all I have to do in kneel and look into the toilet and it's GG

 

[claireybell]

Ah dobs, sorry.. But yes he should def use condoms then if he's really worried, i hope you told him how much you want him in a non bd way lol!

Had to chuckle at 'the longest bj ever' are there EVER any quick ones? Jeeez i get jaw ache & nearly give up on the whole thing

 

[gigglebox]

damn Dobs, that's a tough pill to swallow He's got a good point though...but so do you. Maybe just support his mission to get he certificate now and bring up the subject again at that point. That will also give you time to get your head in a better place.

 

[mommyhopeful2]

Hey everybody.

Dobs: so sorry to hear about the DH. That stinks, I had an ex like that, so fx that he sees that it doesnt have to be about getting pregnant.

I actually have a question for you guys. I got a plainly positive opk back on Jan. 30th, so im 8dpo but since then I have had massive amounts of EWCM and still have a little over a week until AF is due to arrive. Is it possible to ov 2 times in 1 cycle that many days apart? should i take another opk?

 

[claireybell]

Hey Mommy sometimes is the mass hormone surge after ovulation, ive had some random ewcm since falling preggers

Dpnt think you can get ovulation twice in one cycle

 

[mommyhopeful2]

just not sure whats going on... its been constant since my +opk but this morning the amount seemed ridiculous.

Im on 8dpo

 

[campn]

Clairey- Thank you hun! I'll give it a try!!

Dobby- Samantha from sex and the city once said "they don't call it a job for nothing!" Hehehe! Also pregnancy is hard on everyone hun don't feel bad cause you were sick. I also had to go to the ER with DS, this is life people get sick and sometimes we need doctors, pregnant or not! Also like you said there will never be a perfect time to get pregnant. We kept delaying #2 cause DH constantly complained about money and I told him unless you're winning the lottery tomorrow we'll never have another cause people don't get richer over night!

We just told DH's family we're expecting at lunch. DS just had a shirt that said "this boy is getting promoted to big brother" and two thumbs pointing at him. They all tried to read it and then their jaws dropped. They seemed pretty happy and I told them please let's not go blasting it all over Facebook yet cause it's still so early. I've a feeling by tonight the entire family will know

 

[Keepsmiling91]

Hello ladies haven't been on here in a while!

I have two little girls (aged 4 and 2 & half) .. Been ttc for the last 8 months using OPKs for the 8 months, and then concieve plus for the last 2 cycles,

Well this month I gave up, decided im lucky with what I have, and didn't bother ordering anymore OPKs, well.. I couldn't resist a FRER on 9DPO-BFN, 10dpo- BFN,
11DPO- (quick look BFN) chucked in the drawer,

Pulled them out the drawer 5 hours later to throw in the bin to see what could be a BFP / evap, so just took a second 11DPO test at 10pm with VERY diluted wee, to see what I think is another BFP?!! Can u please tell me what u think? Im now petrified on m/c or chemical (not due on till Tuesday) .. (My DPO are approximate as I didnt use OPK but I always ov on CD17 so have used that) x

 

[FutureMrs]

Definitely something there smiling!! Fingers crossed for you

 

[gigglebox]

Hope, i believe if you release2 eggs, it's within 24 hours of each other. Did you keep taking opk's orstop after the positive? Maybe you haven't ovulated yet.

Awww campn, how cute! Are they happy?

I took a muscle relaxer for my back....the sleepiness side effect just struck me 3 hours later. I'm sitting in my car in a whole foods lot debating if i should nap in my car. I don't wanna grocery shop waaaaaahhhhh

 

[gigglebox]

Looks good to me. That darkness for 11dpo is great, i see no reason to suspect a chemical
