October Sticky Beans!

[Angel5000]

That's such a long wait! That's crazy!! AT least you can get DH in and do the SA. It's not much but it will let you rule out DH sperm at least.

cupcake I see the lines!! So excited you got a second one on your hold! I Can't wait to see more!! FX it sticks!!

Ripple So sorry hon.

AFM - Still no blinky face. Very irritated because I had my last digi today and I used it, but it gave me an error reading. :angry: I've never had an error reading on a digi before and of course it would be my last digi. Ugh.

On the other hand my cervix is HS and starting to open I Think (so hard to tell sometimes). I think I started to get some EWcm today, but it's only a little bit so it's hard to tell for sure. I'm hoping that this is a sign O is coming! Still using cheapies, so now it's just waiting time. Haven't had a lot of chances to BD lately but going to try to definitely BD tonight and then EOD from now on. It's just hard to check CM the day after BD, ya know?

So sorry ripple

 

[todmommy4568]

I've never got an error reading either angel. That would make me so mad! Those are definitely not cheap!

 

[cupcake.]

Angel, that must be so frustrating, those OPKs are expensive and to get an error reading on it.. ugh!


And Thanks so much all of you

I took a test with FMU this morning, which was about the same darkness as yesterday's, so I was a bit bummed out by that.
However, because I'm a POAS addict, now more than ever haha, i did another one with SMU and I think that must've been more concentrated or something, either way this is what I got:

It's definitely stronger than yesterday I can't believe it, I guess I'm really pregnant! I really want to do something special for OH, hiding a test in his easter basket, but I'm so scared it'll just slip out or he'll catch on since usually about this time when I know I'm out I tend to get a bit cranky. But i'm so happy and I don't know if i'll be able to hide it. A full week will definitely be tough to hide it from him!

Congratulations cupcake!

 

[todmommy4568]

Congrats cupcake, looking good!! 8 days is a long time to wait but I have faith in you!! That would definitely be a great Easter surprise!

 

[cupcake.]

thanks so much

I'm incredibly excited but trying hard not to let it show. I really want to surprise OH, the timing is just too great to not take advantage of! His face would be priceless!

Maybe I'll text him sometime during the day tomorrow that I got my period, just to force myself to stick with not telling him immediately..

Also, while I have a good feeling about this, the thought of possibly having another chemical definitely sits in the back of my mind. I can't wait for my AF date to pass so I can feel a bit safer

 

[Angel5000]

I finally started getting EWcm yesterday. A little later than normal (at least for the last several months this is late). I still my Wondfos so I'll just go back to old school ICs for this month. I'm hoping to O in the next few days. Dh needs to schedule his SA and we have to be abstinent for 2 days before hand so I am trying not to get him to schedule that for saturday with the hope I'll O soon enough this week that he can still be good to go for that.

Tod- This is the first time I've had an error reading on the digis. I'm so frustrated that it would be on my last one!

Cupcake - congrats!!!! So excited!!! good luck keeping it a secret for 8 days! Keeping fx it sticks. WhT is your AF due date?

 

[cupcake.]

Angel, fx you'll O soon and that with your DHs sperm analysis the timing will work out!

And thanks it's so surreal i keep checking my HPT to make sure there are lines and i'm not imagining. It's torture to wake up and test because i'm so scared there won't be a line anymore.

But, there still is i was even brave enough now to put them in FF

AF should be due either tomorrow or the day after, last cycle i had a 13 day LP and i'm 13DPO today.

I have another batch of cheapies that while they also say 10miu fhey must be less sensitive because i never got a line on them with my chemical. But I did today, so I'll count that as a good thing!

And, if little seed in there sticks, it's due to arrive november 29th

 

[Angel5000]

your temps are still looking good! I'm keeping everything crossed for you that it sticks! I know just how terrifying the idea of another CP can be. But the lines showing up on the cheapies that din't show lines on your CP sounds like a good sign! Are you going to test with a digi ?

 

[mrscletus]

Yay cupcake- it sounds so promising this time. I am so happy for you!!

Angel- any progress or anything with O'ing??

AFM- just waiting--- 6 dpo.

 

[cupcake.]

Thanks so much cletus, it feels promising as well just tested ain, because I'm an addict and need the reassurance and definitely still pregnant haha

I just feel so bad, i just texted OH and told him i feel like AF is going to start. I hope he's not too crushed , but i really want to give him an easter surprise.. poor guy

 

[Angel5000]

Cupcake - aww poor guy. Hopefully you'll be able to give him an awesome surprise. I don't know if I could wait 8 days to tell dh. Lol. I'm so excite able. Lol

Cletus - looks like I'm finally progressing. Cervix is HSO and def have EWcm. Today's temp isn't very accurate because I've been awake since 2 am off and on every hour or so wheezing and was very warm. So there's a good chance my temp is too high for today. I'll do an IC OPK this afternoon.

Cupcake - aww poor guy. Hopefully you'll be able to give him an awesome surprise. I don't know if I could wait 8 days to tell dh. Lol. I'm so excite able. Lol

I seriously feel so bad.. I think I may just screw the surprise and tell him when he gets home later. He wants it so bad as well and now I feel cruel to act like this month was again unsuccessful.. If he wasn't so tuned into my cycle (he knows AF is due tomorrow) I could probably manage just not telling but actually lying is another story. He texted so many sad faces back, and in my inner eye I can just see his disappointed eyes
haha seriously if I think about that a minute longer I really may just cry. Nah, I can't do that, I'll tell him when he gets home


And that sounds promising! Maybe if that temp isn't really reliable you had your O dip today! I'm having my fingers crossed!

 

[Angel5000]

Aww yeah I couldn't do it either knowing how much dh wants it too! You could wait until tomorrow and do a digi and give it to him when he wakes up or something.

 

[mrscletus]

Cupcake- so glad you are going to tell DH, as nice as it would be to surprise them, they are often as invested in this (especially those of us that have been trying for a while) as we are. If the timing is right I would have said go for it... But having to lie might not have been a good plan. Can't wait to hear of his reaction... Maybe you should
Video it??

Angel- Fx that this is your day!! Go get some!!

Forgot to add- I am constipated today! Started prenatals (I know I should have a long time ago, but just never remembered to pick them up) and they have caught up to my bms already... Ugh! But other than that, just exhausted and ready for a nap.

 

[Angel5000]

I think I got a +OPK today!! I'm so used to using my digis to confirm my Wondfos though that I'm a little hesitant. Lol. It's pretty close. close enough I think I'm going to call it a + guess we need to DTD today. Dh yesterday was saying how we need to EOD for the week and I'm like "not unless I get a positive" at least if this is a + then hopefully i get a temp rise soon enough that if we stop BD on Wednesday he can still get my egg and do his SA Saturday.

Cletus - have you ever used chia seeds? I use them in my yogurt every day (I eye a lot of yogurt lol) and it helps prevent the constipation. I have serious intestinal issues anyway so I've been using chia seeds for years. They are a miracle worker for me

 

[todmommy4568]

Exciting cupcake! Can't wait to hear about his reaction!

Angel I don't think it's positive quite yet but darn close! Like if it fades out over the next couple days and doesn't go positive I would call it positive..close. Hopefully this is it, looks promising!

Afm just mentally preparing for the "forced" sex again I am going to try and stick to smep this month so today is a BD'ing day. I am on day 1 of quitting smoking again. I didn't make it through my bartending shifts over the weekend but I'm not giving up! 💪🏻

 

[krissie328]

Good luck tod!

I've been dieting for the last three weeks and it's been so so hard! Today was my first really big cheat. But I'm going to get back on it tomorrow and stick to it. If I'm honest this is the longest I've ever been on a diet. But I'm feeling so much better and I know losing weight will be great for ttc and when I finally get pregnant.

 

[Angel5000]

I just did another test on a 4-hour hold almost no liquid and it's lighter than the last one I Think (still a couple minutes to go). So I don't think this will get any darker tomorrow but I'll keep testing over the next couple days until a temp rise or I can be sure this is the +OPK.

Tod - I was just thinking about "forced" sex Going to try to BD every day between now nad the temp rise to get every chance possible for the egg this cycle and was just thinking about how burnt out I'll be!

So excited you're back to TTC with us again! Good luck on the smoking end, I'm sure you'll be able to cut it eventually!
