Need some buddies 1dpo, its a waiting game!

lol i also agree, thats the only part about bd i dont like, the mess and sex smell, eugh!!!

Ok feeling quite good at the moment. I am 80% sure that i have endo and this is poss the reason we havent conceived so far. Really looking forward to this app next week. Also got my best friend coming to visit tomorrow so gonna have a nice girlie weekend

 

[HWPG]

so - do i reuse softcups (i.e. order 2 of them) or do i throw them away (i.e. order a pack of 14)?
(tmi warning last night we started SMEP - albeit on cd 7 instead of cd8, but whatever. i did not bleed all day yesterday. after sex.... so much blood! i'm going to ask my dr next week if it is normal at the end of a period that sex can "knock stuff loose" - ugh, that sounds so gross but it doesnt normally happen and we were both surprised. any of you gals experience that? (no pain, btw)

 

[MamaTo2Girls]

hw, walmart has a 14pk for only like 6.00....don't waste ur money anywhere else. no they are not reusable! discard after 1 use. I never bleed after sex. I only bleed when i have my af. sorry, can't help you....yea ask your doc.

 

[laustiredttc]

hey hw i have bled once but it was only a bit. But sex can be painful for me hun so again i would go see dr. Sorry cant be more help hun.

 

[HWPG]

i bought the 14 pack -used drugstore.com and got 20% off - they were like 3.50 or something, sweet!
i will def ask the doc. it was weird but no pain or anything, just surprising. i'm going to put it aside unless it happens again.
yay thursday!

 

[laustiredttc]

i know hun woo hoo nearly the weekend

 

[HWPG]

seriously - waiting to ovulate is SO BORING! .... at least post-O we can gab about what we're feeling in our body, how we're feeling with emotions.... right now i'm just staring at FF trying to fast-forward a week... boooooorrred! contemplating a pumpkin latte - 'tis the season!

 

[laustiredttc]

lol i know hun, i have like two whole weeks now before i do, must keep myself busy!!!

 

[MamaTo2Girls]

i seen dunkin dunouts has a new apple orchard donut and hot apple cider and iced apple ccider....i could sooooooo go for the donut and iced apple cider. yummy! I love fall! We are going to get preggo this fall. Perfect time of year to bd!

 

[MamaTo2Girls]

Yes, hw....it is boring right now. I'm ready for the 2ww again, wait what? did i just say that? lol seriously, i'm ready for my bfp. If it's negative again, i'm really gonna think about giving up. Every month, I've gotten a bfn i think to myself...do i really want to start all over getting up a million times a night, losing sleep, teaching another baby things all over again and dealing with temper tantrums, etc. Then I see a baby out and about or my friends on fb who are preggo and just had their babies, I remember why I just want 1 more. It's crazy what we go through to try to have a little one.

Okay, have lots to catch up on...

Welcome back sniz and mama! Missed you both!

Congrats sniz on becoming a lawyer!

HW, around my period (whether before or after) if I have sex, I bleed...sometimes a lot, sometimes a little. Sex hurts for me sometimes, but I can still bleed whether it hurts or not. So, I don't know if that's normal, but it's normal for me.

AFM-Temp went up to 98.5 this morning. I started the brown spotting again. After just the one little spot of whitish brownish cm, I thought maybe it was IB, but since I'm getting some brown when I wipe and have pre AF gas (TMI!!!), I'm guess AF is around the corner. I've read some ppl keep high temps even a couple of days into their period. So maybe that's what I'll do. We'll just have to wait and see.

 

[HWPG]

Thanks bray. A) I def get a couple days of high temp cd1 and cd2. Hate that. B) yeah, I'm thinking the same about being close after or right before period. (sometimes I purposefully don't DTD before af because I like to hope that will give me a BFP, because I'm n idiot.) thanks for chiming in!

 

[HWPG]

Mama! It's so ironic you say that because I think something very similar! Like, it's no big deal if it's negative, we have a good life, we go where we want when we want, we have a nice lifestyle, etc. But then I see a baby, or my friend tells me about her scan, or my family plans a reunion (all real things!) and I can only think about how I want to bring MY baby to those things... And it revamps me! So, for me, I'm all "bring it SMEP! Bring it Preseed!" and been prepping OH for it. C'mon c'mon c'mon! BFP for us all!

 

[Brayr08]

HW, I don't like to bd right before af either for the same reason...how dumb is that??? lol If we're pregnant, we're pregnant. The weird things that go through our minds.

 

[MamaTo2Girls]

oh, bray...still pulling for you! and sex doesn't hurt the baby supposably...but boy do i feel like it does sometimes, maybe i'm just paranoid, i've actually thought maybe that waswhat killed my unborn baby at 18 weeks, why else would his heart just stop beating. they did an autopsy and checked a bunch of stuff through my placenta and blood...they found nothing. iserioiusly wonder if i didn't smother him or something. Never doing that again, i'll just havehubby play with himself or i suppose i can do it for him since he's weird like that.

 

[HWPG]

oh Mama, i'm so sorry for your loss. my heart just goes out to you

happy friday morning ladies!
i'm on cd9 - we dtd this AM (1:15) so do i put that as friday AM or thurs PM? and that kinda threw off the SMEP thing - damn, we can not get it right! oh well, tmw (sat) will be cd10, and i'm thinking that's the real time to get serious. so, repeat after me: sat pm, mon pm, and maybe tues - fri pm. geesh, sounds like an exhausting week ahead! hehe, life is *so* hard nothing else fun yet here to report.... waiting, waiting...
how is everyone else?

It does sound exhausting, but I think its worth it! One thing we did, which I don't know if it works or not but is an option- 2 nights out of the whole smep thing DH just came in the soft cup on his own and I inserted it and left it in overnight. I did coat the inside of the cup with preseed before that. We just don't have sex quite that much and it was a bit much with everything else going on in our lives!

Just a thought!

 

[MamaTo2Girls]

today is cd7 for me, we dtd lastnight and won't again until cd11 (because he is working the next 4 nights)and then we will skip cd12( cuz he is going into work), bd cd13 and skip cd14(going into work again) and then bdcd15 that am when he gets home from work. That is our plan this month and I pray it works.

 

[MamaTo2Girls]

OOOHHHH this has to be the lucky cycle! If I get a bfp, I would be due on our wedding anniversary!!!! That would be a perfect gift! Awwwwwww, i'm so excited and anxious now.
