Lookin for NTNP buddy. Just need to CHAT!

[MrsCorny]

Well, he was serious. Only one freebie and that was Monday nite, back to pulling out til fertile days are over. hopefully Monday did it. Doubting it though. Sorry if TMI- but checked my cervical position last night and I *think* it felt more open and high, so that makes me think I ovulated yesterday, so Monday nite would've been too soon unless his are really strong swimmers lol oh well, I guess I'll call myself 1dpo today and ill test on 9/1 (early) then again on 9/4 if I haven't gotten AF by then.
What testing dates do we have on this thread? Maybe I'll post a list on here so I don't keep forgetting! Lol think I should?

 

[RedButterfly]

Corny, sperm can last anywhere from 3-5 days in the right environment. So if you did ovulate yesterday, you still have a really good chance at conceiving.

 

[MrsCorny]

I thought it was 2-3 days. That makes me a little more hopeful. Don't know if that's a good thing or not...

I texted my MIL this morning, just saying good morning, and she asks why I'm so happy. Told her its cuz I get to cook for my whole family later this evening and she was like "oh... You know what I wanted to hear haha."
Why would I tell her I'm pregnant over a text anyway!?? Silly woman!

 

[Laura2806]

Yep, 3-5days Hun so don't count yourself out yet!!

I'll be testing 31st, CD35, if no AF that is! This'll be 2days before my average cycle ends according to FF and 14days after fertile days as per FF, as I got my BFP at 16dpo (didn't test early) it puts my LP at 16days. Not feeling hopefull ATM but we will see, we have 2 names, a pink one and a blue one!

Maybe your MIL knows something how cool would it be if you conceived this cycle xx

 

[fairyy]

Corny u have a good chance sweetie. 2days before ovulation is good.

I again asked DH whether he is ready or not to TTC actually from this cycle. I messaged him my fertile days earlier. He said how about taking leave for fertile weeks for next four months. lol. He was kidding btw. But I am happy that he is ready. This weekend we are going for some fertility friendly lube shopping. Thinking of giving SMEP a shot.

 

[MrsCorny]

Laura- it would be amazing and too funny cuz of my MIL's prediction! Lol and if grandma hangs in there I could tell her before she goes to heaven. That would be.... Just wow. I don't wanna get my hopes up too much tho, I'll prob have a hard time with this BFN. It's been just an awful summer, and I have a feeling that will break me this time. But I guess we will see. Not like we are trying too hard so I can't really be all that disappointed with a BFN.
That's cute that u have names picked! I told hubby about girl name I saw yesterday that is just beautiful and has a beautiful meaning, too. We have 2 boy names we have talked about but not set in stone yet. Although I'm pretty set on the girl name, it's the first one ive liked since Lily, but Lily is too popular now. Haha DH won't talk too much bout names til it actually happens, it's not "real" to him yet. Guess I can't blame him.

Fairyy- well fertility friendly anything is a step up for OH if you ask me. I was nervous to even bring prenatal vitamins into the house before hubby had told me he would be ready soon.

 

[MrsCorny]

Only 2dpo and I'm anxious already- what is wrong with me?!?!? Lol I just really need something good this summer... Is it bad I'm already getting a little upset at the possibility of a BFN. Idk what to do... Maybe I shouldn't be on here so much??? Idk...

 

[fairyy]

Distract yourself. Have some plan made for weekend with hubby.

Good idea!! Cuz this TWW will kill me! Haha

Oh and the vw van!!!!!!!! Love it!!!!! And the tattoos on ur feet, so so pretty! I want another one so bad! Lol

Here are a few of mine, I don't think we put up any of the "professional" shots cuz he sucked haha. So these are just what people there took, maybe a few from his grandpa. Idk lol

So Thursday night with my family went well, made Italian sausage in a tomato cream sauce with Bowtie pasta and they ate it soooo fast, not a drop left! Lol they loved it obviously. And I love to cook for people so that made me really happy.
And last night hubby had some photo edits and such to do so I went to a friend's house to help her decorate cupcakes for her sister's baby shower and they came out so cute. I love baking and decorating, too I just don't get to do it often.
Today- chillin at home this morning, then going to friend's with hubby so he can take pix of the house to help them sell it and then we will have lunch with them, and a car show this evening. so it will be a busy day!

 

[Laura2806]

Aww thanks hunni, we're over the moon itch them Oscar was a star all day! I need another tat too, like really need one want one for the wedding but don't know what or where, was thinking 'love' but done in the shape of a heart with our date on but can't find one I like, then I thought about 'I belong to you, you belong to me' and the date but don't know if I want more writing. I have 'only God can judge me' on my ankle and an l & s entwined on my wrist so not sure if I want more writing! Hmmmmm lol what do you want doing!

It's just loading your pics

Sounds awesome Hun I love baking too! Was gonna make some cake pops this evening but we asked Simon's parents round instead, might do them tomorrow after he's finished painting the kitchen we moved the furniture around in the lounge today and brought the iMac downstairs so it might actually get used more now! Moved the lizzies around which they love! Just need to give them both a deep clean an rearrange their vivs now

Xx

 

[MrsCorny]

Those tat ideas all sound nice. I want hubby to take a pic of my wedding bouquet (it's silk so it still looks new!) and then have part of it, like the main flower that stands out, Casablanca lily, tattooed on the inside of my ankle with our Bible Verse that we have engraved inside our wedding rings. Song of Songs 6:3 "I am my beloved’s and my beloved is mine". Thought about doing it on top of my foot, but just looks so painful!!! Lol I'm a wimp. I have one tattoo, angel wings between my shoulder blades, but they didn't go over my spine or shoulder blades at all so it wasn't bad.

One week til i take my early HPT for this cycle! Lol I can do this!!!

How's everyone holding up so far??

 

[MrsCorny]

So maybe little TMI, but felt strong twinges this morning and super sore nipples. I usually have sore nips around this time so don't wanna symptom spot too bad, but they are super sore right now and almost a little itchy, odd. And lots of CM with cervical position very high. idk what it usually is, so idk if that counts as a symptom, but if its BFN, ill have an idea for next month. My MIL has me thinking I am pregnant. I let it get to my head. Been lookin at baby names.. . Like we have to have a name the second we know I'm pregnant...

 

[fairyy]

Loved your pics Laura and Corny

 

[Laura2806]

Thanks mrsc loo sounds lovely! I have both my feet tattoos and the inside of my left ankle, not much difference pain wise tbh

Haha I caved 5days early than I said I would test! Ofc BFN, like you I have been having really sore nips along with lots of cramping, mainly to the left, so who knows! CP is a crap indicator of anything Hun, mine can change almost hourly sometimes!

I'm feeling a bit down that we're not pregnant on our honeymoon cycle even though I know it's still early, but I have 10miu tests that are known to pick up hcg at just under 10, my BfP was with a 25miu at 14-16dpo but as hcg doubles every 24hrs that's not a very good comparison to go by for me we will see

Thanks fairy xx

 

[MrsCorny]

Ok thanks for the tip about CP, Laura. I had heard mixed reasoning on that. As far the nips, could be nothing. Idk.
Boo for BFN, I hope it turns around for u, if not, there is always next cycle hun. So keep your chin up.
Again, not feeling much different, just horribly bloated. I haven't been exercising as much cuz I been over grandma's so much so maybe I just gained a few pounds. Boo! Lol and I'm craving ice cream- too bad it's way to early to call that a symptom and go with it!!!! Haha

 

[Laura2806]

Never too early for symptoms! Haha bloating is a major one! I looked 5months pregnant at 6wks of an evening!

Thanks Hun, I know it'll happen I'm just super impatient but when I think about it we've already been TTC#2 for 4months! :0 give or take lol xx

 

[MrsCorny]

Have you been full on TTC or NTNP? And yeah, I'm impatient too! I hear ya! Nothing anyone says can change that, just wanted to be supportive, hun!

 

[Laura2806]

Not full on as in temping but as far as tracking cycles, BD and CM goes we have been trying. In fact gonna run and grab my BBT now! Xx

 

[MrsCorny]

That's full on TTC to me! Lol I hope it happens soon. Did you have any trouble getting pregnant with your first? Any real need to be concerned after only 4 months, or just anxious?
Totally symptom spotting! Got up twice last night to use toilet, and been feeling sharp twinges, almost cramp-like. I wanna say not like the twinges I've felt in previous cycles, but I bet it's all in my head haha and been feeling slightly nauseous, kinda puke-burping. Not fun. But then I smirk, thinking- ooh... Is that a symptom?! Haha I did pretty well not symptom spotting last month, but so far this cycle, I'm a fool with it lol could any of those w symptoms at this point anyway?
Anyone else symptom spotting???
