Looking for a NTNP buddy!

[Mrs HH]

Ahh thank you, fx!

Any news with you? The food symptoms sound promising!

 

[JJsmom]

No. someone commented on my temps asking if I am positive I had a positive OPK when I did because they would have told me I O'd later on. Well, that would put me at 7dpo today not 14 dpo. And we didn't bd as much during that time because I had supposedly already O'd. But I ran out of OPK's and OH is blaming me saying I should have kept staying awake every night for the next 10 days so I would be even more grouchier and more mean. I stayed up til midnight-1am every night for 11 days for him to be able to do this and I couldn't do it anymore and he was upset. But unlike him I have to get up at 6. I was tired of waking up with headaches and stress dealing with everything. Have tried my best not to have any stress but the bills are killing me. I can't afford anything. I just came home to my water shut off because I forgot to pay the stupid bill. Then had to pay the full balance plus the reconnect fee. I had to borrow money from my son to make sure I had all the money because I just went to the stupid grocery store because I wanted a homemade pizza. I'm just so upset right now with today. He is blaming me, and it really hurts my feelings. It's my fault I decided sleep was important because he gets to sleep all day and not have to worry about going to work until 3 or 4 in the evening where as I have to worry about getting up and trying to think while I'm at work and work all day then come home and make sure i get his and DS's dinner cooked and deal with DS all evening while he doesn't do anything but come home heat up his food then pass out. UGHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sorry for the rant. Wish I could afford the extra $25 to restore my water tonight instead of tomorrow. but I think it's just a ploy anyways to get more money. So I'll quickly wash up a couple dishes for me and DS to eat off of and hopefully OH has enough water when he gets home to wash up a plate for himself!

 

[Mrs HH]

So sorry you're having a rough time . the person who looked at your chart might be wrong but even if not it doesn't necessarily mean you've missed the egg. Being tired and stressed won't help. how about bd'ing every other day? Will stop you being so tired and apparently is just as effective and sperm is of better quality. or try doing it in the morning sometimes so OH has to wake up?
Xx

 

[JJsmom]

I can't get him up that early. They could be wrong about my chart but when I took what may have been my OPK out of the chart, it automatically switched to when she had said she thought it was. I still haven't started AF. I've had an ill tummy this morning. massive temp drop but not below the cover line. So...hoping it's implantation! Was having some cramping on my left side yesterday. It wasn't painful, just pressure like. So will test in two days if AF isn't here. Should be 11 dpo at that point (according to the new dates). Otherwise I am officially 3 days late.

 

[Mrs HH]

Don't know much about temping but know it's not an exact science, but fx you still caught the egg! Temp drop sounds promising! Make sure you keep me updated!!
Hope you managed to get your water sorted- utility companies are always looking for ways to get as much money as possible!

 

[JJsmom]

I did get my water sorted out thanks! I'm terrible with remembering stuff some times! I need to write it all down and put it on a spreadsheet and get better with it! So I checked and have lotiony type cm but there was a tinge of light brown. Not sure if that's because I'm going to be starting AF in the next 3 or 4 days or if it means other things!! I don't know anything about the temps either. LOL! I just do it and let others tell me about it!

 

[Mrs HH]

Ooh that may be promising!!
Are you testing today?!
GL and FX!
x

 

[JJsmom]

I'm testing with a frer in the morning. I checked my cm today and saw some dark brown this morning, and some light brown this afternoon. So I might be starting. no cramping though. So we'll see what happens in the morning. I'll probably pee in a cup and then wipe to make sure it's not worse before i waste a frer.

How are you doing?

 

[Mrs HH]

Good idea about checking before using the test. got all fingers crossed for you!!
I'm good thanks. on cd19 today so if I've already O'd then I'm in the 2ww, depends on whether I'm on normal cycles now or whether last month was a fluke!
Keep me updated! Lots of luck and

 

[JJsmom]

Good luck!!!!! baby dust!

I unfortunately have had the witch return. So I'm out for this month and the next few most likely. OH will be joining the military and will start basic training in June/July of next year and he has to be there for the birth of the baby.

 

[Mrs HH]

Ugh so sorry the showed up! So are you going to prevent for next few months or just leave nature do its thing? Might be nice for you to relax for a while without stressing about what time of the month it is etc X

 

[JJsmom]

Well I have a wedding to plan so I'll be stressing about that. I'm not going to prevent but I doubt it'll happen. I want to avoid it from happening so it will guarantee that he'll be back from basic. He's supposed to be finding a family doc and get a sperm count order from them so we can make sure it's not him. I just realized this weekend I have 8 months even til my wedding as of yesterday. May 25th. I'm going crazy trying to figure everything out.

 

[Mrs HH]

So exciting to have a wedding to plan! What do you have organised so far? I got married last year and out of all of the preparations trying on and choosing a dress was the best! Any idea what kind of dress you'll have?

 

[JJsmom]

So far I have the date: May 25th. The colors: Royal Blue & Yellow. I have chosen my sister as my MOH but she doesn't know it yet. Going to order her flowers in my wedding colors and have them delivered to her. My mom started asking me a million questions today of how many ppl we're having to the wedding, how many will be in my wedding party, about my dress. I'm going on Oct 6th to try on dresses. I asked my friend (coworker) and another coworker to come with me. So we'll see what happens on that day! My mom is buying the dress. I've got to figure out how to come up with money now to pay on stuff! The location I haven't fully decided on but pretty much. They said I need to send in the deposit right away but I'm on a budgeted wedding and I won't have most of my money until Tax return in Feb. So I'm hoping I can come up with the deposit even if I have to borrow from my paycheck. Work is able to give us advances if we need them. So we'll see what happens I guess over the next few months! I'm stressing so bad though because my lil sister signed me up to do the family reunion this year with her and she hasn't done anything. I've had to figure it all out so now I have my family asking when it is and everything (2 weeks) and I haven't even got the invitations sent out and my sister was supposed to order all the supplies and she hasn't done that yet. It's going to end up horrible!!! I'm so stressed because I have a wedding to plan and a family reunion to plan all by myself!

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How are you doing?

 

[Mrs HH]

Wow you have a lot going on trying to sort a family reunion as well! Not very fair of your sis to leave it all to you, but you know what once all your family are there and having a good time the little things won't matter.
So exciting about your wedding! You'll have so much fun trying dresses on! Make sure you try on as many as possible. i tried on loads and ended up with the first one I'd tried on lol
Weddings are totally a licence for companies to print money! Don't feel pressured into spending money on the stuff that isn't important, it's yours and OH's day so have what you want. you'll have such a great day!!
All good with me thanks. on cd23 now so af due next week if cycles have calmed down, so if nothing has arrived by weekend I might be tempted to poas!
X

 

[JJsmom]

Keep me updated on symptoms!!!

I might have to see about dresses. I know I'm going to try on as many as possible, but if I decide to ttc again this cycle and it actually works, then I might have to get a different dress!!!

 

[Mrs HH]

Will do! Nothing so far, bit emotional yesterday but that could be pre-AF. Although like I said before if this isn't the month and AF shows up next week at least cycles will be back on track! We'll see!
Yeah good point about the dress! Just have fun trying them on and then see how this cycle goes, you've still got plenty of time to get one.
How is the family reunion planning going?
X

 

[JJsmom]

I just want to get the reunion over. LOL! Although I know I'll sorta be the center of attention at least for a few mins! My cuz's wife has the new baby but I'll have the ring. LOL! That is her third baby. Won't be surprised though if she announces she's pregnant again :-/

 

[Mrs HH]

Lol you'll enjoy it when you're there! Everyone will be v excited about your engagement and you'll have a great time showing your ring off! Even if your cousin's wife does have news of her own you'll get to watch the same reaction that you'll get when you get your bfp!
Still no symptoms here. although did tear up listening to some girl win a radio competition to see One Direction, lol!!
X

 

[JJsmom]

Awww!!! Hope that's a good sign for you!

I asked OH if he wanted to try again this cycle. There is a great chance of him not being here when the baby arrives which means I'll be alone. His mom is here, but I can't rely on her for anything yet. My dad lives 2 hrs from here. My mom won't be able to afford to fly out here. LOL! So I just don't know. I'd rather be pg when he goes in and about to have the baby when he comes out of basic. He said he'll think it over while he's at work and that gives him 2 weeks or so to get into the doc and see if he can get a sperm count.
