Need a TTC buddy

[MinneGirl]

BOOO, the witch just got me.

I really thought this was my month. I don't know what else to try

 

[membas#1]

Sorry MinnieGirl I don't recall how long you have been TTC.

I hope you find something to treat yourself to today. Thoughts with you...

 

[MinneGirl]

Thanks This was our 4th cycle. We are going to give it 6 cycles before we worry too much. I did treat myself to a little shopping excursion A new pair of shoes, some jewelry and lipgloss. Nothing like a little retail therapy!

 

[LaRockera]

Mrs-C, the best of luck to you Fx they'll call you in for an interview. I do have tips for you once that happens- I was a freelancer in the London Film Industry for five years! I underwent the stress and agitation of hundreds of interviews!

MinneGirl, sorry the witch got you I'm practically putting out the red carpet for her, as I had an anovulatory cycle this month.

Heads up ladies, the night is still young!

PS. Off for some more errands now, see you later xxx

 

[Mrs-C]

Sorry Minnegirl I've been told 6 months at least is normal. I know it doesn't help, but Do you have anything new to try this month?

I put my application in today. It closes on Friday so I won't have too long to wait. I hope. Not sure if I'll get it. I read over the description and it really doesn't give anything away about the qualifications or experience you need.

I can only try! If it does happen, we will put TTC on hold for a few months. I'll have to work notice in my current department before I move over and then I want to learn the job before I potentially have to go on leave.

We are trying to sell our place too and the salary would make a big difference to the place we buy so FX!

LaRockera - not long now! How's it all going?

 

[MinneGirl]

Thanks, Mrc-C I think this month we are going to try soft cups. We aren't temping or charting, which already has been a breath of fresh air! Just trying to be more relaxed about the whole thing.

I got a pregnancy reading done today by Gail--some other girls on here recommended her. Anyhow, her reading was really good--and she is predicting that I will conceive in August or September with a boy--and then again in May 2013 with a girl. It may be a hoax, but it sure gave me some hope!!

retail therapy is oh so nice! i'm not much of a shopper, but when i need it, it can definitely work magic on my mood.

 

[Mrs-C]

AF has finally gone.

I'm going to hold off trying until I find out if I have at least got an interview for this job. We could save up so much money if I did get it - and we'd have no worries for coping during maternity leave.

FX!

MinneGirl, sorry about the witch getting you, I am glad you found something to treat yourself to. I to did a little shopping!! It did help a little, but would have been nice to have been shopping for cutsie baby stuff, soon enough, soon enough, that's what I keep telling my self.
MrsC, good luck at your job, I sure do hope you get an interview, FX!!! That would be great if you got the job, especially since it would help out som much financially.
Are any of you going to be stay at home mom's once you have a baby?? or when you have a new baby?

I won't be able to be a SAHM, but I'm hoping to be at home on Fridays, and SO will be home on Tue, Wed, Thur--so we'll just need care on Mondays and the occasional Friday when I can't stay home. That's not too bad. SO is cutting back to working basically half time or less to stay at home with kids. I carry the insurance so not an option. I am off in July and August all summer, so those months he'll work more and I'll be SAHM!

 

[Mrs-C]

One of us will keep our current job and the other will quit and get a job in the evenings. We can't afford day care and I would prefer it were one of us anyway. If I get this job, it will def be me that goes back full time. If not, I will quit and work evenings.

How's everyone doing?

 

[MinneGirl]

hi Girls!
I've been BUSY all weekend. My best friend got married yesterday and I was her MOH. It was a blast! However, my feet are killing me today from wearing 4" heels for 9 hours yesterday! Now its just a lazy day on the couch

Feeling SO much more relaxed this month without temping! Don't think I'll ever chart again. I don't know if I posted this, but I did a pregnancy reading by Gail and she predicted we would concieve in August or September with a boy I am SO hopeful she is right! If nothing else, it gives me hope

xoxo

hi ladies--just checking in. we had a weekend away and it was great to get away and relax and have some fun. no tv, no internet...ahhhh! so nice. i'm approaching O too--so lots of BD action, and EWCM now for 3 days in a row...yipee! O should be Tues or Wed, but maybe coming early with early arrival of EWCM at day 11. Who knows..we are BD often to cover the window--at least once a day, sometimes twice with a 12 hour window between. Even getting up early before the alarm tomorrow morning so we can make sure to get a little action in I've read so many theories out there on every other day, every day, every 12 hours in the few days before O-up to O...etc...figure we'd just do it when we want to as often as we want to, and see what happens. SO is young, with presumably good counts, and taking zinc--so hopefully we aren't over doing it and hopefully his swimmers are holding up at this rate!

Hope you are all well!

That is quite the BD schedule! I don't think we have it in us to do it that much! We are trying something new this month and not doing it so often--we are going to do it once prior to + OPK and then just on the day I get a + and then next day. Maybe his swimmers need more time to build up or something?

Hope are you all great and had good weekends!

Hello ladies, how are you all??? I'm doing great! I had a very nice weekend. On Saturday us and some friends went and visited my grandparents, then to my cousin's graduation party, then we went and watched drag races. Then on sunday, I went to the home depot and looked at some cabinets and counter tops, I have decided to redo the kitchen, so I am pretty busy with that. It is a really small space and I am trying to make some changes to make it feel bigger. I am still in the planning stages as trying to figure out what lay out I like, which there really is not much that I can do as I can't move the stove, the sink, or the dishwasher, so it's proving to be a bit difficult.
On another note, I should o soon, I think towards the weekend. Which kind of sucks, becuase we are going camping this weekend so not really sure that we will find time to BD, which is pretty much unacceptable to me, I will have to figure something out!!!

Yeah--I'm hoping to O soon so we can cut back--not that it isn't fun and all...but I gotta rest my girly stuff! If we don't get BFP with our "do it when we want to" method (i.e. often) then we might try down the road a more cut back version--but we'll see what happens

How funny, I expect to O at the weekend - and we are away with DH's parents in their caravan. The paper thin walls mean you can hear EVERYTHING. So, not on the cards this thurs, fri or sat!

On the job front, I've heard nothing so I'm taking no news as good news...If that's the case, and something comes of it we will be WTT. Not for too long though! DH will be 30 next year and we want a 5 year age gap between them, so we haven't got too long to get started on number 1 again.

I have been reading some of the threads on soft cups and thinking of tyring those this month--seems weird to jam something up there, I would have to practice ahead of time for sure! maybe i'll use the softcup and then go up into my yoga headstand....hahahaha! i think my hubby would think i'd officially gone insane!

 

[LaRockera]

Hi guys

Sorry I haven't been around for a while. Busy busy busy

So we've now finalised everything. We've ordered our (it's going to be a chocolate-strawberry one), went to the flower shop (OH ordered my bouquet without me present, I wanted it to be a surprise and 100% chosen by him), also ordered a flower band for my hair, which I'm going to wear curly and down my shoulders... Tomorrow I'm doing my second and final test with the hairdresser. And then we wait... LOL!

On a different level, AF is due tomorrow, and I really hope she does show up as I don't want her to come a day or two before the I've stopped temping and put aside my OPKs for the summer... Following doc's orders Will try to spend as carefree a summer as possible I think. Que sera, sera.

Lots of love to all. Hope you ladies are doing great.

Mornin' Ladies!

Babydreamer, where are you?! Hope everything is okay!

Not much new here--just waiting for the big O day-which isn't for like another week. Feeling so much more relaxed this month about everything, which has been great, and relieving!

We are heading on vacation on Thursday to northern WI, our favorite place. We rent a cabin and a ski boat and have a blast! It is always one of my favorite weeks of the year.

Hope you all have a fabulous day to you all! Hoping ONE of us (at least) gets a BFP this month!
