July Testers-Fun, Sun and POAS! 13 BFP!

[twinkie2]

Welcome macy7t7! I'm fairly close to you, O is suspected for me on Saturday so we are likely just a few days apart! I know there are a few others with AF due around the same time, so you are in good company here! Good luck to you!

n.miller, love the pics and happy to hear you are having such a wonderful time!

Deal-I too have a super positive attitude today, it's wonderful, hopefully it will stick around in the tww, but I see your temp is way up today that's good reason to be positive, when will you test!!!???

hunni-i'm still stalking over in June, but been so busy it's hard to keep up everywhere.

ILT-hope you are doing well, I know you're ntnp this cycle, but still holding out loads of hope for you!

asm-holy ewcm, batman!! Taking EPO again this cycle as my confirmed bfp was an EPO cycle, seriously, it's ridiculous how much I just had when I went to the bathroom, makes me sad to wipe it away, sorry that's gross, but I want it for all of DH's swimmers, realistically though, it will be another 10 hours before we bd today I'm guessing, so I'm probably fine ahhhh, the things we worry about in ttc!

 

[Lynny77]

lol Twinkie you want to save it for his swimmers. So funny! Maybe I'll try epo next month. Just for something new lol. Though cm is pretty decent for me but more would be better!

N.miller happy belated birthday! And so glad you had a good getaway! Love the pics! Now that you know what you're up against that'll help with getting the elusive bfp.

welcome macy7t7!

ILT I'm doing well! Just in the 2ww sitting around waiting. Not crazy just yet. Give me a day or two How's the ntnp cycle? is it hard to not actively try?

Deal and Kat love the positive energy!

 

[Deal9027]

Twinkie - I totally got the giggles from you not wanting to waste that fertile cm!!! I've had the same exact thought when I've gotten it too!!! Too funny!!!!

TTC really is a shameless thing isn't it?!!! If anyone ever told me I'd be sticking my finger up there to check out my cervix & confirm what CM I have I'd have laughed and confidently told them NOT A CHANCE!!! What has happened to me?!?!!!

 

[Deal9027]

N.Miller - I love the pics & am SO glad you took them!! Never give up!!!!!!!

Ladies, NTNP? Who am I kidding? DH has been asking when I am going to ovulate. I told him in a week or so and he told me that he'd get ready for it. Not sure what are included in the "getting ready" part for him. Hah! I don't think I can get away with NTNP when DH is super charge with getting me pregnant by August (according to him). I didn't have the heart to tell him that my womb doesn't go with anyone's schedule. It's very rebellious! Can't even put it in jail and make it do what we want it to do . I am thinking we need some medicine to make it more compliant . With that said, I am not sure what's going on this cycle lol. Maybe trying but not hoping? Is there even such cycle? Sorry ladies. I am just feeling "meh" this cycle and not feeling very positive. So, I'll just stalk for now until something different happen. Maybe after the meeting with RE next Tuesday!

LOL tomatoes about DH getting ready! My DH actually said the same thing and I was like what, gonna give the swimmers a little pep talk or something? He said sort of! I told him to give them better directions since they clearly got lost last month!

I totallt can relate to how you feel. I definitely have had cycles where Im like, meh, indifferent, NTNP but then I end up obsessing anyway come O time. But this cycle Im READY. Got my game face on! Im probably just going to try to BD this coming Mon-Fri (fertile week) and then whenever else we feel like it for fun. Im also going to drop back a bit with my running (but I love it SO much and exercise is always good for you right?!?) and just run a comfortable pace whenever/however long I feel like. Just so my body can focus on making a baby rather than seeing how fast and far I can run. Not sure if that will help but it cant hurt.

Hope everyone is enjoying their Tuesday. Also hope this week goes by fast!

OMG I totally LOLed at this, maybe I should get DH to do the same

Sure ILT, you can try but maybe not get your expectations up and just see what happens

I'm currently CD12 today and will most likely O tomorrow Getting sore nipples which seems to happen some hours before. We BDed CD9 and CD11 and I think DH is into seeing if we can get one more try in there (maybe tonight or early tomorrow morning) but I told him only if he's into it and not just for baby making since we're trying to be NTNP and be relaxed about it We'll see what happens Here's hoping it happens for us this time

 

[Ilovetomatoes]

Kat, looks like we are in the same boat!

Macy, LMAO! Men! Regarding running, I do love to jog (key word jog and not run ahhahaha) but was told to hold off on it until way later by my acupuncturist. She told me to exercise 3 times a week and only walk until I sweat a little. mmm...yea...that's not working for me. I felt super stressed out these past three weeks. I went back up on my treadmill...I walked...2.3 miles . enough for a little sweat . I like my daily sweat. It makes me feel accomplished. I love the view of your running trail Macy! Mine is the tv and whatever junk shows that I recorded hahahaha.

 

[Lynny77]

It is so hard with the running. For the first few months I was ttc I wouldn't run during my 2ww. I guess I just got tired of putting my life on hold for something that may not happen. And when I did get pregnant a year and a half ago we weren't really trying and I was running- actually that was one of my big signs. My normal 5k was sooooo hard! So I guess it just depends on what makes you feel comfortable and good!

I get where you're coming from to ILT- trying not to get my hopes up until I see the doctor in July and find out what the next step will be. It is hard though to keep the hope at bay! I just don't want that crushing disappointment again!

 

[Bug222]

hey ladies!!! im down for the June testing thread but not holding out too much hope as it is the first cycle after a MMC and I really have no clue what is going on! lol So I thought I would join here and hopefully get my BFP in July!

 

[macydarling]

Yea, maybe I wont cut back after all I may actually go insane during the tww without a little sweat. I think I will just keep it 5 miles and under and hold off on any long runs. That actually isnt my running trail, someone else posted it and I was being jealous I am stuck on the treadmill work
days but luckily I get to run trails every weekend with DH. I recently had the idea for him to bike while I run (he is not a fan of running) and I dont know why I never thought of that sooner.

Welcome Bug!! Sorry for your loss...hoping you will get your rainbow baby with us! Call me crazy but I have a good feeling about this month. Good vibes from everyone. I think this is all of our month!

 

[Cheekygringo]

Well, waiting on AF to make up her mind what she is doing, but if she is playing tricks and finally shows up, I have now lost my 2 goes cause this cycle is in overtime...

I bet that is the witches plan all along...

 

[hunni12]

I hope it isn't the witch cheeky.


Had to share this with my July ladies...for 3 nights I have been dreaming about this frer and each dream it keeps getting darker and darker and tonight I got a fortune cookie and here was my fortune

 

[slowloris]

hi all, im cd13 atm. on a normal cycle i ov around cd15 or cd16. me and oh havent dtd properly for almost a week. so somethings gotta give soon! and its be right around fetrtile time. i thought i could just ignore ttc and wait for blood results but its soo tough! im itching to use my opks!
must keep myself busy!

 

[frenchie35]

@macy7 : Welcome! I'm using my OPKs and should get a positive in the next couple days and O on Friday or Saturday. Looks like a couple of us will O at the same time!

As for what it means when a DH says he's "getting ready" for O-time, I think that just means he'll hold off on the self-love!

I stopped running in Dec-Jan since it had been about 6 months we were TTC. But when Spring started showing up in late Feb I couldn't wait and worked back up to my usual 2-3 weekly 5k's. Gotta get that sweat in somehow!

I started BD yesterday (CD 8) and could tell it's a little earlier than I usually start because BD was a little uncomfortable. I guess Ms Cervix is not prepared for swimmers!

 

[n.miller]

Hey ladies. I plan to catch up on everyone this afternoon. Just wanted to stop in and say I'm on my way to my HSG. Hopefully good news awaits us.

 

[KatO79]

Hi everyone:wave:

ILT: Yeah seems we're in the same boat

I find it very funny that DH and I are supposed to be pretty much NTNP but he's all gung ho about getting enough tries in Probably wants to give it a good go so we can try and avoid going through assisted conception.

So today is CD13 and I'm ovulating DH wanted to give it one more go so we BDed this morning before he went to work FX

 

[Excited2See]

Can you ladies count me in? I'm testing the weekend of july 4th which would be an amazing bay present (my bday is two days after 4th of July!)! I feel pretty good about this cycle!

 

[twinkie2]

Welcome Bug & Excited!!!

N.miller-good luck, hope it's all good news for you!

 

[confuzion]

FX for good news n.miller! Will be stalking for an update!
