light hearted ttc

[hello_kitty]

So last night when I was half asleep, maybe I was dreaming, but I felt a movement in my tummy. I'm probably thinking about it too much. I almost put off my husband this morning for dtd because I told him im going to get my period any day now, so dtd is not going to get us anywhere.

Jo - I dont think either of us would want to wait because we want to prepare for the baby in advance. We have mostly everything if its gonna be a boy again but if its a girl we would like to switch to a different theme.

Ashley and Jo do you have a preference for the gender? My husband would like a girl, but since I am enjoying Zachary so much I wouldnt mind if its another boy.

I wouldn't mind either sex, a girl would be easier financially since we already have a buncha girl clothes. I have SOME clothes that could be either, but if its a boy then yes once its born then we'll buy stuff
I know my DH would love a boy though, but then I'm afraid he'll say no more after that in a dream world I want 2 girls and 2 boys.

 

[hello_kitty]

Same here, I would also love to have 2 boys 2 girls...My husband doesnt mind its just we need to plan around things so I can finish my schooling. After our second, we're just gonna ntnp and see where that leads us. He initially wanted 3 in the first place, and then noticed almost all his friends have 2 so he suggested 2 and I started making a fit so we're back to 3 again...number 4 is optional if we feel up to it.
He did point out the fact that we might not have a perfect couplet...so thats why I keep fighting between having 3 or 4. I only want 4 to have couplets.

 

[AC1987]

Yeah though if it were up to my DH we woulda stopped at one, I think its more due to him not having siblings so he doesn't understand how nice it is to have a sibling close to your age. but either way we'll take at least a 2 year break before having any more. As financially it just can't be done.

Omg I can see movement on the outside now!! creepy!! and I'm still not big hmmph!! Still trying desperately to gain weight but its so difficult while watching a munchkin. I swear on days when she is being a "princess" I say no more

I booked my next midwife appt! nov 5th!

 

[hello_kitty]

Ashley - maybe you're feeling movement this early because you are small. I didnt feel any movement until I was 20 weeks. Family planning can be a headache sometimes. I really dont know if I should wait a few years after my second or just go ahead and have all my kids at once. I really want all of them to be close in age. Plus I want to finish having kids at a young age so I can focus on my career, rather than finish schooling and then having to give birth again when I graduate. I dont know, I'll discuss more with my dh when I get pregnant with #2.

My period is supposed to start today, but no signs of it yet. I have been peeing a lot also. I dont know whats going on.

 

[ricschick]

Oh exciting kitty have you been trying then do you no when you ovulated? X

 

[hello_kitty]

Rics, we havent been trying. We plan on trying after af is gone. I dont know when I ovulated. We just dtd ever other day. The Iatest it should be here is Sunday.

 

[hello_kitty]

Based on last month's cycle, af is 2 days late. The latest it should be here is tomorrow. My dh told me to test but I want to see if its here tomorrow, if it isnt I will test a week from tomorrow.

Oooh interesting hello kitty! U did say it was dry when u went to the loo after so u neva kno. Maybe u ov'ed late.
Ashley do u have a bump pic? I feel huge already and am finding it hard to disguise. Also finding it hard to disguise as the nausea is so bad. Both these things have me paranoid about twins i think i wud faint!

 

[josephine3]

Oh p.s. Both oh and i would like another girl. We both wanted a boy last time but now we have a girl we'd like another!

 

[AC1987]

I think I'm smaller this time then last time I have an AWFUL bloat belly going on, but the baby is underneath that its not pretty. Maybe tomorrow I'll take a pic and compare them to when I was around this time last year.

I've heard that usually after your first child, the next pregnancies would show faster. It happened with my sister.

AFM, im on cd9 today. Today was the last pill for the Clomid this cycle. So now it's just the waiting game. DH is going to be away for 10 days on detachment starting today so im hoping and praying that I end up o'ing once he comes back and not sooner than the 30th of this month. Anytime from the 31st forward, im okay with so let's see what happens. Today, im going to get some more rest, eat, and later on go to work and then go watch movies at my friend's house because her husband is away on detachment with my DH and they both are in the same squadron so that's why. This Clomid, I must admit, makes me very exhausted and I have had a headache since early morning. Im really hoping that all we needed was the Clomid in order to get pregnant. So we shall see.

 

[magicwhisper]

good luck

atm just sick sick sick most things i eat i throw up

i am now on a basic food diet of pasta , bread ie toast and crackers with butter. hopefully it goes soon . i am trying to see if ice poles work ... worth a go

and i get to go to my parents in 4 days! i havent seen them since before i was pregnant

 

[josephine3]

Aww magic it sucks doesnt it. Iv thrown up a lot already

hope u dont miss ov time with ur oh being away patrice! What day would u expect to ov on?

 

[mzswizz]

magic hope you feel better soon.

jo- well I used a clomid calculator and it said between the 25th and the 30th. But sometimes ov could occur later so we shall see.

 

[ricschick]

Patrice can't he bottle some before he goes I hope ov holds out till after he is back!

Hope the sickness eases girls!

AFM I'm still waiting to ov I think I've had a few cramps these past few days a nearly positive opk today and a little shiny cm today and yesterday. So I'm hoping it won't be long now still bedding everyday/every other day so fx we can do it this month! I really hope soooooo! Xx

 

[magicwhisper]

bottle it up "here you go love that will keep you going" sorry i am childish sometimes

 

[mzswizz]

rics-Lol if only he could've

magic-trust me im the same way

 

[hello_kitty]

still no af for me and I am 3 days late. I took a digi clear blue test and it said "not pregnant". Thats really strange since my period has been on time like clock work since it came back when Zachary was 8 months.

Jo - If I am pregnant, I think I got pregnant before 3 days ago. I feel nauseous and there's pain in my right ovary. I told my dh there's a chance I might be pregnant and he's over the moon and has even started rubbing my belly lol. I hope I dont put him down, now I really wish af will stay away...but I got a bfn this morning =(
