[RobertRedford]

I keep staring at my chart....it's so pretty this month! Come on little bean!!

only during TTC would we consider charts, OPK's, EWCM, or hpt's "pretty"! hahah i love it.

It is SO pretty Ash. And you covered all your bases, you gotta see that BFP this month!

 

[morganwhite7]

Lol Cassidy you say the funniest things.. I'm not leavin you and yay for Kevin feeling better!!!

Oh and get to BD, do you have a pos OPK??- I can't remember!

 

[clynn11]

OPK is still negative, maybe I can get BD in today AND tomorrow. I can only hope lol Usually I O the same day I get a positive. Last 5 cycles it has been CD12. Today is CD11 for me. OPKs getting darker, but not positive yet.

 

[NDTaber9211]

Good luck with the soft cups! I am trying not to obsess over here but its not working. My opks are still positive and I am thinking I will be Oing tomorrow. DH and I tried to bd again but it didn't work. He's like 'my boys are empty!' lol. Might try again tomorrow.

 

[morganwhite7]

Oh hey I didn't know that, no SUPER rush then.. lol

But seriously I'm excited to see what the Softcups do for you!!! I always had leakage lol.. No more wasting the precious man juice!!

 

[clynn11]

hahaha he needs to reload! Give him a break today, maybe try getting frisky tonight or tmw morning and see how that goes

 

[morganwhite7]

Ew that was not a good word choice lol.. I'll stick with "spermies" LOL..

Hah! I know right?! Never before in my life would I think a chart or lines on a pee stick would be so pretty haha

As Kevin would put it, this month you guys gotta "do work"

Don't your opks usually get dark suddenly then go negative pretty quickly after o?

LOL cracking up at this. Man juice. bwaahaha.

I end up "leaking" a lot of it too, even if I have my butt/legs up immediately after sex.

same here...but i think dh would seriously think i was nuts if as soon as he got off me I stuck a softcup in lmao

 

[clynn11]

Yeah my OPKs gradually get darker and usually stay around medium darkness up until O day and then BAM! And then go straight to negative the day after. Usually it's only one day of positives, in some of my cycles I marked 2 days because one would be as dark as the control line the next would be way darker than the control line- it seems I O stronger some cycles than others.

 

[clynn11]

Luckily Kevin always goes straight to the shower. He likes to be clean, he's a little OCD about it (which is flippin' ironic considering he won't pick up a damn thing around the house!! grrrr). So I figured softcups will be perfect because I always stay in bed to keep my legs up anyways (ya, leakage is no fun. ew. So looking forward to not having to deal with that lol). So I put the softcups in the drawer next to my bed and just figure i'll put one in when he goes to shower!

 

[Cowgirl07]

I used to have more but now that I put my legs up after I don't have much. Soft cups kinda freak me out though.
Cassidy-you will not be here in a year!!! I am beginning to think I might be stupid hormones.

Oh yeah, mine too. I think softcups would reallllly weird him out. TMI, I find that I have the least amount of "leakage" after we do it doggy style, I just stay on my hands and knees but keep my butt up in the air higher than my shoulders (ie, ill put my chest on the bed) does that make sense or do i sound like a crazypants?

wooo don't miss this opportunity! Im so anxious for you!

 

[clynn11]

Hahaha crazypants Amanda no- I agree! Plus I feel like doggie style gets the spermies to the cervix faster! Lol. Annnnnnd not to mention it's my favorite, so yay for doggie style! That's usually how it ends up going anyways, DH's favorite too lol.

 

[NDTaber9211]

We are taking a bd break today. I might try again tomorrow depending on my temps. I kinda need a break too, I'm a bit sore .

I still lay there for about 20 mins and then insert the soft cup. I get paranoid that the cup might block some spermies so I give them a chance to swim first lol.

 

[TTCaWee1]

Aww thanks everyone. Thanks for all the warm encouagements to stay. If its too much just let me know. I'm really surprised that there's only one bean too. But makes me feel like its a nice strong one. I'm going back in a week bc I am being followed by a fertility specialist until I go to the OB. That's just how they do it. They like to watch closely. It's fine by me though!

 

[clynn11]

Good tip Nichole. I'll chill with my legs up for twenty and then put hte softcup in. I don't want it blocking them

I read an article last night that they are patenting them as a TTC conception tool! Right now they're only technically sold as menstrual cups but since there are so many conception stories they're patenting them to advertise as that too!
