sounds like a great plan, mama! fx for you!

Hi all! So much activity here and you all have me near convinced to try softcups this month! Never done that before, but it does sound great-- less mess, can pee if wanted, etc. I'll have to think about that!

As for bleeding after sex, it has happened to me twice. Both times I was sure my period was over, but then - BAM! - gross mess after sex. I went on to have my period for another day. I was gross and it really grossed out hubby. Poor guy.

I'm CD... I can't remember. I think 5. Need to check fertility friend. Anyway, I'm doing Femara, but nothing else. I'm so happy to be off prednisone but haven't lost any weight yet this week. I kinda thought all the weight I gained these last couple months on it would just disappear! Not to be, I guess. I'll have to actually work it off like a normal person. lol

Thanks hw! you too! bfp for us all hopefully this time!

sniz-you should try them...and i hate exercising, i lost 30lbs but it took me a year! i need to get back to that routine....and i now gained 10 back. From getting preggo and miscarrying and then I quit smoking a month after the miscarriage. Oh well... good luck to you...just keep yourself happy and healthy! who cares what anyone else thinks, your beautiful just the way are...and so is everyone else! don't need to change a thing!

Hi ladies! Happy Saturday.
I went to a sort-of family BBQ today. There was a 5 month old there who I got to hold all afternoon. I was like, "yeah, I want this. I could totally do this." Made me pretty excited to ovulate, haha! I'm just so anxious/excited for the days of pregnancy, and promise to be thankful for any nausea or tiredness! Sounds cheesy but I swear it's true.
Should be getting my cups on Tuesday, just in time! Hoping you are all having a nice wkd. Hugs to ya!

I took my 3 year old niece to an indoor pool party today and it reinforced my "I really want a baby" feelings. She is just so sweet and it just melts my heart every time she tells me she loves me. Ugh....I really want to be a mama...

 

[Brayr08]

Well ladies, I'm pretty sure AF is on my door step, banging on the door to come in. Stupid wench...My temp has been dropping since Friday and I had a maroonish spot this morning, which is never a good sign for me. I've decided on this next cycle (as I KNOW there will be a next cycle), that anytime there is anything that indicates I may be Oing, I'm going to do SMEP, the soft cups and preseed. There were 3 different times this month that I might have. Anyways, hope you all are having a good weekend.

 

[MamaTo2Girls]

oh hw and bray.... i'm so sorry. super big to you both.

 

[HWPG]

Bray, I totally get this. Same feeling when I hang out with my nephew. It will be our turn soon!

 

[Snizuitz]

So funny! I was at a baby blessing (like a christening) last week and EVERYONE had a baby there. It was "pass the baby to Sniz" all day and I loved it! I could literally feel the hormones speed up my biological clock! Lol

 

[laustiredttc]

hey ladies lots to catch up on. Sound like everyone is pretty much in a positive place which is good. Just had great weekend with friend so feeling rejuevanated (spelt wrong).

cd 5 and going to start soy cd5-9. Just going to try and chill out as much as possible this month i think. Got fs on thursday so just gearing up for that really.

Glad you all had nice weekends

 

[HWPG]

hi ladies!
sorry to crash the optimist party, but i am so irritated today. GR! among other things, OH told me he has to travel this weekend - pretty much when i think i'll be O-ing. so i told him we have to have sex every night this week. today (monday) is cd12, so i'm thinkin 12,13,14,15,16... then hoping that will "fill me up" for the weekend... i'm hoping that i ovulate on cd16 (as in the past), but we'll see. might possibly skip tomorrow (cd13). i dunno, i'm just frustrated.

 

[HWPG]

i'd love ur input: is 5 days too much? should i just push for Tues-Fri? or mon, wed, thurs, fri? *sigh*

 

[Brayr08]

I think maybe tonight to get rid of any bad he may have(if it sits in there too long it can be deformed), then wait until Wednesday or Thursday and bd every night before he leaves. When we do an insemination they always tell us to bd no sooner than 2 days before so that will give dh plenty of time to build up the good sperm.

 

[Snizuitz]

I agree with Bray.

And I'm sorry he'll be travelling! That's the worst. Seriously.

 

[HWPG]

thank you ladies! i was feeling down, and your support perked me up! thanks!

 

[laustiredttc]

hey bray just read the last couple of posts before i posted myself and i'm sorry that the witch is on her way,

hw i agree with the girls hun, no sooner than 2days before and i am sorry he is going away but i think you will have ample opps to catch the little eggy.

cd6 for me girls. tried the soy last night and no side effects so far which is good. Just waiting for the O now, snooze hate this part. In fact i hate the whole damn stupid thing

 

[Brayr08]

laus-What does the soy do again?

Well, AF was supposed to show up today and so far nothing. Now that I've announced that, she should be showing up at any time. If, by some chance, she doesn't show up by tomorrow, I'll test again...even though I'm sure it will be a waste of time.

 

[HWPG]

hi ladies! good morning tuesday!
had my annual exam this AM - she did not do any internal or PAP, sweet! i told her we're ttc and we had a good conversation about that - she even said that it took her 9 months to get preggers, so that made me feel a little more normal. apparently we're "doing everything right" (temps, opk, bd every other day). OH and i DTD last night (cd12), then we'll do Wed, Thurs, Fri. AND i talked him into coming home on Sunday night, just in case. So we'll see how September shapes up.
i'm keeping my fingers crossed for you, Bray. you just never know...

 

[laustiredttc]

hey bray the soy can help ladies who dont O bring it on, its the herbal version of clomid. Also it can help strengthen an eggs viability. I'm just giving it a go. Good luck hun, i hope she stays away for you fx

hw glad the app went well hun, fx you get to bd on the days you want

 

[Brayr08]

Well, no AF yet. I am SOOOOO bloated though! I have been for the past couple of days. It's almost like I can FEEL the gas bubbles popping in my stomach...lol...I have no cramps what so ever. My temp is staying at 98.17. This morning (like 8am) I burped up acid, which I haven't eaten anything that would cause that, so that was weird. I had had some brown discharge (sorry gross), but DH and I last night and normally, this close to AF, it would have been a real mess, but there was just a little brown that came out with his stuff and I have had nothing since. I really hate to get my hopes up. But please everyone, if you pray, please pray this is it for me! I am so tired of all of this. And now that I've made a big deal of this, AF should be showing up. HEAR THAT AF?! I'VE MENTIONED THAT YOU'RE LATE! There we go. If she's coming, that should help push things along.
