Hey folks, 11dpo today, still not feeling overly positive but in due for AF tomorrow. I'm watching this thread closely for those couple lurking bfps!

Well on cd 8 today and finished af 2 days ago but hubby and I have been arguing the past 2 days so no dtd. Think this is going to be a hard month.

Good luck to other ladies. xxx

Hopeful what a great post...thanks for being our ultimate ringleader!!!! Today I am vowing when I go home and my dd is in bed to paint my damn nails! hahaha....they've grown so long and awesome since I started taking all my pretnatals...about time I enjoy them....I also am working from home tomorrow (dd has her 2 years check up and I have to have follow up blood work for my anemia....I was HOPING to be able to tell my dr I was also pregnant....guess that's not happening ) So....I think I'm gonna pack up early tomorrow and take dd swimming...she'll love it and I'll love some mommy/daughter time...

@omgbaby...is your hubby an inferno like mine???? omg in the winter he's the best heater on the planet....when I was pregnant with #1 I would get him to cuddle my back and he was like a human heating pad....but in the summer it SUCKS!!!hahahaha...he thinks it's awesome to hear how "hot" he is...hahaha...he's like..you won't hear many women complain their hubby's are "too hot" hahahaha...

@Clandestine...we have the same rule! No T.V in the bedroom......we're renovating our spare room to make it our dd "big girl room" and there is a tv in the spare room so he moved it into our room (just to store it while he painted and emptied the room...it wasn't hooked up) and he was so giddy for like 10 minutes...he's like "look babe...after 5 years of trying I FINALLY got a t.v in the bedroom" haaahahahahha..

CD5.....on we go!

@chulie - HAHA about your DH's excitement. Mine agreed to the no TV thing - he moved in with me and I already didn't have one. I just think it's better that way, I don't like being plugged-in all the time.

Oh my DH is SO far from being in agreement! hahaha...but I have been very clear on it from day 1 so over our years living together he's just finally accepted it....but still tries his hardest to convince me otherwise. He is "that guy" who used to fall asleep ALL the time with tv on. I used to be over at his house and never felt like I got a REAL night's sleep because the tv was on and would wake me up and then I'd have trouble going back to sleep...I just hated it (even though they have timers now) I can't sleep with a tv on at all, I need peace and quiet. Even thought he won't admit it outwardly even he occasionally admits that he sleeps better now than he ever has....hahahaha..

 

[ClandestineTX]

My best friend, who I used to stay with often, would fall asleep with the TV on. I'd wait until she started snoring, then turn it off so I could go to sleep! Even now - the only gadgets in my bedroom are two lamps, a humidifier, and an alarm clock (and even that's on a low-level shelf, so I can't see the light when laying in bed! I just need things to be "OFF" in order to really sleep.

@ Hopeful2014 Haha, thanks, but no green olives for me. I HATE them, so this week I found that most websites say it's as big as a one inch grape, which I do like, so I sent DH to the store to get grapes. He comes home and says "Look honey I got you organic since you're prego and I want only the best for you" I looked at them and while delicious and organic they're tiny! Like 1/2 an inch and I was like, but now it makes the baby seem TINY! So I have to eat 2 at a time, which isn't that far off since the head and body are about the same size right now . Next week is prune I believe. I don't know that I've ever eaten a prune. I have had prune juice and thought it was fine, but it defeats the size comparison, although I can't say as I'll be eating whole limes either

In regards to TV in the bedroom, I don't think I could live without it. We don't watch new TV shows in there, but I like to fall asleep to Friends. I have since college. Especially when I lived alone for the short time between college and marriage. It meant I couldn't hear the creaking noises in the house. We don't have it on every night, but if we're stressed or if we watched something scary before bedtime I turn Friends on. I have all the episodes memorized, so it doesn't keep me up, just lulls me to sleep. We got our pamphlet about where I'll deliver and the first thing I pointed out to DH is that there's a TC/DVD player so I can watch Friends while in labor.

Im the exact opposite...i miss having a tv in my room. hubby goes to bed early and has to sleep in silence and dark. I am a night owl and i feel guilty sitting in the living room when he goes to bed, so i lay in bed and play on my tablet until i get tired enough to lay down. he doesnt like that we cant cuddle when he falls asleep cuz im never tired that early, so for us, i think a tv would be a great solution. We could cuddle and he could fall asleep while i watch tv. But he is totally against the idea.

Not feeling very hopeful today , A this morning ,My temp is dropping and my cervix and cm are where they usually are before af around this time of month

 

[omgbaby]

So I've noticed I check my cm almost every time I go to bathroom & sometimes its creamy other times its a mixture of creamy & ewcm. Has anyone had this?

 

[Fallen8905]

i don't really have a clue about cm lol

 

[OurLilFlu]

A mix of EWCM is often seen before AF, I had it last month

 

[omgbaby]

If AF gets me this month what is something I could have OH take to improve swimmers? Not sure if there is any problems just curious.

 

[Fallen8905]

how long you been trying?

 

[omgbaby]

About 2 years

 

[burgbrandy]

Theres a ton of vitamins that can help male fertility. I have my hubby on vit c, b6, vit e, selenium, magnesium, zinc, folic acid and a multivitamin. L-arganine is good as well. My dh doesnt have any known issues either but he likes to feel like hes doing something to help.

 

[nikkilucky77]

I kinda wonder if my hubby should try something too. He has had a kid before though and it's my first so I always think is it me? We have only been trying 5 months though and I went off the pill in December. (Which I hated...I don't ever want to do that again)

I'm 7 dpo and I am already symptom crazy. Last night I woke up at 3:00 am and had a huge glob of creamy cm. So of course I googled it today . I love how the tww brings out the crazy in me

 

[OurLilFlu]

Hey ladies, a friend on another thread made my pic hi-def, what do you think, it's a dollarama one so I'm not sure how reliable but I was getting peer pressured to test!

 

[ClandestineTX]

@OurLilFlu, that looks BFP to me! Congrats!
