Need a TTC buddy

[LaRockera]

I don't think anyone took what you said the wrong way All we all want in the end is a baby...some of us will get it sooner (as some already have) and some will take a bit longer In the end, we will all get those BFP's though!!

LaRockera, are you already published? What type of book are you writing? How exciting!!!!!!!

Thanks honey (and Babydreamer, too) All I wanted to say is that I wish all of you wholeheartedly to be pregnant very very soon.

Nope, never been published , but then again, I've never actually finished anything. I've been procrastinating for an eternity, and now I'm just finishing my first draft. I think any attempts for publication will have to wait at least until this time next year. I'm just getting really close to finishing (finally! ) and all the fear, and anticipation, and stress gets the better of me!

I'm writing mainstream women's fiction. Thanks for asking me, hon.

 

[LaRockera]

Okay, look. I'll say it out loud. I don't know what happened. All was well.

And then progesterone took its toll.

I'm 8dpo. And I'm bloody depressed! I'm moody, angry, anxious, stressed, irritable, melancholic, pessimistic, and I'm not implying these are symptoms.

I don't feel jealous. I don't feel left behind. I don't feel I want to be in someone else's shoes. Nope. Not at all.

I just feel totally crap, and I wanted to rant about it.

I hope I'll be feeling better tomorrow, cause this has been happening for two days in a row.

Oh. And I haven't written a single word today. And yesterday, I just screamed to a couple of idiots that called my favourite book some stupid names.

*sighs in frustration*.

What else can I do for you?



No, I think you need this:

I'm feeling crappy about MYSELF right now. Nothing with TTC, but just got on the scale and have gained MORE weight. Uggh! I saw a picture of myself today and nearly fainted, I've gotten so chunky! I just feel bad about myself and need to have some will power to stick to healthy eating and regular workouts. It isn't hard, or complicated...I just need to DO IT Okay, tomorrow is a new day, right?

 

[LaRockera]

to you LaRockera!!!

Okay, this made me Thanks. Indeed, this was exactly what I needed .

I know what you mean about gaining weight. I've put on some extra weight myself. I've gone from looking 'thin' to looking 'normal' if you know what I mean. I'm just not particularly hustled about it because now I'm just about in the acceptable BMI, while before I was 19 point something, which is advised against when you're ttc.

Yeah, I'm good in making up excuses

So today I'm feeling a little bit better. I'm curious to see how the day goes. It's really hot here too! I have some new ideas to develop the scene I'm currently working on, and might as well focus on that. I'm 9dpo, so I suppose the change in hormones changes everything.

We did try this month, but only twice, on my 12th and 14th day. I was pretty chilled out, don't know why I got in such a bad mood these last days. Again, the hormones.

Two signs will give away my period. Migraine, and my usual crappy mood, officially called Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder, (dysphoria in Greek means bad mood, or else displeasure kind of), which is at its peak two days prior to AF arriving.

For some stupid reason, it also decided to hit me in the middle of my 2WW as well . Not too much cm. I have yellowish traces in my panties, but nothing constant or significant to be taken as a sign.

Oh. And my breasts are bloody burning me today. I had stabs under my armpit and from inside yesterday, but I think this was because I was wearing this bikini top that had a very hard, clumsily-made wire underneath, all the way to my sides, so I don't really take this a a sign. I also feel my breasts touching my arm, which is really funny because they're so small and it's quite unusual .

Shall I be honest though? This could very well be premenstrual breast tenderness, that I just didn't notice before.

Minnegirl, what have you been up to? And Babydreamer, what about you?

Thanks everybody for the hugs. They made me smile.

LaRockera, I'm happy I was able to make you laugh...sometimes you just need a good laugh to snap out of a fowl mood

I am only 3 dpo and my boobs are killing me already too! I know this is def not a preggo sign as it is way too early! I honestly do not symptom spot much at all anymore..to me, I "think" I could be pregnant every month and it obviously has never happened...so I just try to ignore everything.

We have been hosting some Russians in town, and they made us dinner last night...which was SO yummy. But not helping the cause, which is my fat a$$! I am feeling better today--major PLAN OF ATTACK for me. Ummm, don't eat crap, workout 3-4 times per week, and no eating after dinner Not hard, but will be effective. I figure I can accomplish this in two months.

Okay, back to my

We attempted the 12 hour thing, but only managed it two days in a row...but I think right around "O" day so hopefully we covered our bases

Of course he could do it, hon! Whatever made you think he couldn't?

Men are not like us. It takes twice our physical strength to fulfil their part of the deal As long as he manages to ejaculate one way or the other, there's nothing to worry about.

My DH usually ejaculates during the act in the beginning, but towards the last days, he usually has to use his hand. No problem by me. As long as he deposits his s in there, I'm happy, and as long as he's safe and sound and all mine, I'm SO in love.

 

[BabyDreamer82]

Its the first time in about 3 (maybe more) months. Im so pleased, He has felt so crap that he hasn't been able to.
FX he is able to do it again closer to Ov. So much more fun than the self-insemination

Oh, it certainly is.

But keep in mind that even if he has to reach climax with his hand, as long as he ejaculates inside you the chances are the exactly same. Don't think this affects them, because it doesn't, unless a lot of it spills out before he makes it.

A tip: make sure you keep your area wet while he's doing the work, so that when it's time for him to go back in, he'll do easily and immediately.

I'm very happy for you though. I think a good idea is to pamper him for a few days now, making him forget all about the stress of ttc.

I'm still checking in on you ladies. Sending you lots of luck and
