MAY testers???

[BabyC4Me]

Question !!!!!

I'm on CD 13 and my fertile week started today.

We BDed today and when I went to go wipe, it was some light pink blood in the moisture (TMI SORRY !).

The sex wasn't painful or uncomfortable at all.

Anyone know what this means ???? Possible signs of ovulation coming ?

Sometimes you can get some light pink spotting during ovulation!

I ended up getting a little spotting the day before I O'd this month! That's lots of BDing! You should be set!!

 

[BabyC4Me]

Hope so ! FX!!!!

had spotting last night. nothing today but the cramping was something else. it's going all the way around to my back. I've never been so happy to have cramps. CD 3 is so close..

Phew, just caught up on everything!

AliJo - congrats! I got pg on the first try with my DD, but this is cycle 3 trying for baby #2.

mrs unicorn - what a crazy dream! I actually dreamed the other night that I had second child and that it was clear I didn't love it as much as my first. It didn't get much attention, and I didn't feel much for it. I guess I'm subconsciously worried about having a hard time loving a second one as much as I love my daughter! I know this must be a common, and totally unfounded fear.

mcrobinson - wow, 17 PP before AF shows up! Lucky (sort of - not so lucky if you want to TTC before then). I got mine back at 8 months PP. I'm still nursing my 2.5 year old though.

CD16 here and no temp rise yet. Hopefully tomorrow because I don't think we'll BD tonight. We BD at 3:30 am Sunday morning when DH got home from work, and again at 10pm. I completely forgot about OPKs. I'll try to do one this afternoon if I can remember.

Ya, we have been ntnp since 4 months pp but I have never been willing to wean my lo. I'm happy it has finally returned without making any changes to our bf relationship. Hopefully my cycles regulate and we can start tracking! It has been an enjoyable 17 months but I'm excited about the future! I would love to be able to tandem nurse!

Wannabe: It is totally normal for stuff to leak out. it's a lot of fluid for such a tiny space. and don't worry about it. The pressure from the ejaculations makes sure that all the good guys are up where they need to be and the stuff that leaks out is usually the not so good guys.

I used to lay with my hips up or bottom up if we did it another way for maybe 10 minutes ish. Then I would go clean up. I don't like the sticky feeling. Lots of women clean right away. My sister's doc said that was fine too.

LOVE the "blush" lol. It's so crazy some of the stuff us ladies talk about, and I always picture how ridiculous it would be if we had some kind of online conference skype type room, where we could all drink our coffee and compare our LH tests, symptoms, quesitons, etc. Actually, now that I'm typing it it sounds like it might actually be kind of fun if we could organize something on one of those sites that let you conference in a bunch of people at the same time. lol.

You, know, I just thought about this because you said something about tandem nursing, and I also am breastfeeding at the moment as well, with no chnages cycles came back at a year pp. But what I'm wondering at this point is I've heard that through research they have learned that Breatmilk actually changes as your LO reaches periodic milestones, and that the BM they drink as 1month old is not the same as what they drink at 4 months, or 6, 9, 1yr, 2yrs, etc. So my pondering is how does your body adjust to having a new baby when you are still nursing an older one? Becuase through research they have also found that part of reason it changes is bc certain things would not be tolerated in NB system and vice versa. This has me really thinking now, lol.....hmmmmm

Zoom call!! I use zoom for my beachbody business.

 

[mrs unicorn]

Amber - love the Skype style idea! I would literally never get any work done though!

Belle - how are you doing? Think we're a similar DPO? Any symptoms yet?

AFM - 9dpo, bfn, and having some really disturbing / entertaining dreams for the past few nights. Had some cramping last night too. Going to keep on testing 10/11/12dpo then stop. Af is due next Wednesday (4th) so I've got a wait. Thanks 15 day lp!!

How is everyone else doing?

 

[Aayla]

Had some very light flow this evening but then gone. I have counted today as cd 1 as I honestly don't know if my lining is thick enough to produce much of anything. But since it showed up on a pad and it was pink I am going with cd 1. I am so super excited to be back in this. Testing will commence after 7dpo. I never test before I confirm ovulation. O day should be May 12-14 (may 12 is my bday). Hubby has approved for me to buy a big pack of wondfo IC's from amazon. So I will be doing that on may 6. Then I can poas to my heart's content.

Well off to bed now. It is 11pm in BC Canada and I have an early day.

Hm, that's interesting about the BM, I never really thought about it changing as the baby got older, but that makes total sense - I would imagine most likely the milk would become better suited for the infant since all the hormones of pregnancy begin circulating in the system.

This forum would neeed to be my full time job if they set it up like skype/video conferencing style

Currently on what I'm saying is cycle day 7 - still spotting lightly, but AF should be out of the building by end of today/tomorrow (I hope!) Did get a little BDing in the other day since I hadn't spot/bled all day, but spotting is back, so waiting for the all clear from my body before the baby making begins

Almost MAY!

 

[slammerkin]

Breastmilk pretty much dries up during pregnancy (I think by 15 weeks). Colostrum will come back as you approach delivery and then the milk that comes in is suited to the newborn. So the toddler will get newborn milk, and it will continue to suit the younger nursling.

I'm sort of trying to wean my 2.5 year old. Not really pushing it, but not offering, and trying to stall her and distract whenever possible. Her latch is annoying at times already, and I don't see myself being able to nurse through pregnancy since so many women find it painful and get aversions. So I think I will wean for real once I get a BFP. I'll feel it out when I get there I guess.

As for cycle news, ugggghhhhh, having delayed O is soooo annoying. I usually O CD14-16, but here I am at CD18 waiting for temp shift! I had positive OPK CD 16, negative CD 17. 99% sure today's the day. I'm so over all the BD. Had to wake DH for another 4:45 am session this morning when I saw my temp was still low. I had a CD18 O two cycles ago too and it drove me crazy. I also had a longer than usual LP that cycle, which drove me even more crazy! Hoping the long LP doesn't happen again this time, and I can just get my BFP!

7 dpo here. Planning to wait till 12 dpo to test as I hate getting bfns so much! I might even wait till AF this cycle which is also due May 4th for me!

I'm not getting much for symptoms. CP is LFC and is clamped up tighter than I've ever noticed before. I have no cm.... When I usually have lots of creamy. Acne breakout started yesterday, which is a classic sign of oncoming AF for me starting to lose hope!! I find the last week of the tww the hardest to cope with!

I hope your dreams are a good sign Mrs unicorn!!

 

[BelleNuit]

Slammerkin delayed O is the worst!! That would just drive me crazy! Hope you get there soon and you can join us in the tww!

 

[Jelly.Bean]

Mrs Unicorn that's a really nice temp dip in the middle of your tww. Implantation??? I also had vivid dreams during my tww when i was pregnant with DD. Fingers crossed it's a bfp

AFM- looks like I've O'd I don't think we have much of a chance this cycle as we only dtd once during my fertile stage. Can only hope. I'll be testing on the 10th May

 

[mel102]

[greenarcher]

[mel102]
