Stacey- you are every woman with the home schooling. Or does a teacher come? Love my kids but love when they are at school too. lol My 5 year old would love to drop out of school and go home school. lol lol Not my daughter so much, but the boys, ooooooh yea, they would love it! If I would allow it my 5 year old would spend every waking moment with my mom and I. I always say if he could glue us together and make us a super glued trio he would. His life would be even better if my mom was the one home schooling him. Seesh, grandparent love!!!

MsSwizz- when I was pregnant with DD, there was a little girl who had the same Dr. as I did. She was in the 5th grade!! Pregnant by a 5th grade boy! I was too through!!!! I don't know how that panned out, or if her mother understood that her child's life was in danger. My DD is going to the 5th grade, she has also become a young lady She hates it, but the last thing on her mind is sex. She is a bright girl and isn't going to ruin her future with a baby, before it's time for her to be a mother. I see her going places and doing great things in this world. And she sees the same. she was talking yesterday with her friends about Ds1 and they were laughing at how gross boys are. I hope they stay "gross" for a long time and Dh does too


Congrats on getting ready to move forward in the Navy process. GL to you and Dh on your physical, and don't forget to take your swimsuit to go swimming in the pool at the hotel!!! Maybe I could use a mini vacation or something...lol I would love for Dh and I to hotel it with no kids and I would definitely take my swimsuit. Poor Dh and I, we must need a vacation.

Cuuuuuute! I have to cutest little snowflake partial ferning this morning. I am ready to start the ovulation process...lol C'mon L.E. lets ovulate and go on to the TWW!! Heck we haven't danced once since I ovulated last cycle. do you ladies think he is running away from me again? lol lol lol Part of my scheme is to dance closer to ovulation any so, I shouldn't complain about not dancing.

 

[mzswizz]

I remember I went through that gross phase with boys and now look...im puncing on dh every chance i get If people were to tell us how we would be now, I would think they are crazy And yes, I am definitely taking a swimsuit It would be nice to just get away for once. Especially seeing that we are always busy working. So maybe dh can squeeze in a little swim and gym time. And dh and I didnt dtd that much this cycle either but just so happens we naturally dtd on O-4, O-1, O and O+1 day so we are in with a chance and we didnt even know it. Let's see what happens. And im rooting for you ladies to ov so we can all be in the tww!!!!

 

[L.E.]

I'm only on for a sec... just wanted to say don't get excited about my temp. I did just what I didn't want to do and woke up late. I guess I turned my alarm off. So I took my temp 45 mins later than usual. Instead of 97.47, the adjusted temp is more like 97.32, which still looks very normal and mild on TCOYF, so nothing to get excited over. I'll be back on in a little to chat.

 

[L.E.]

Zombie... How exciting to be 7 weeks already! Do you have a lot of symptoms? You have to come back at least after your doppler to tell us how it went.

 

[L.E.]

L.E. I knew you didn't mean that he was bad. He has been an impressionable child. He has a strange and annoying respect for my younger brother that bothers me to my core. My younger brother isn't a role model at all. You'd think I'm a single parent and his father wasn't actively involved in his life, with how he admires my non-gainfully employed, video gaming, dead-beat dad younger brother! It sickens me, because my children don't come from a broken family and instead of looking at your own dad as a rile model you look at he worst possible man to be it! ugh! He got those pictures from my brothers computer and in his room. DH said that he wouldn't be surprised if he has our oldest watching it. Or allowing him to view it. I would hate to think that my brother would do that, but with him anything is possible. He isn't mature and he isn't a fit parent. He has a daughter that he does nothing for. Barelt spends any time with her and supplies none of her needs. Her mother does all of it. SAD.

I found out yesterday that one of my oldest sons friends was recently grounded for the same thing. So I am assuming that they talk about things like naked women. He doesn't go over there to visit, thank god, so he at least can't embarrass me at his friends houses. Everything is evolving from the time when we were kids, HIV/AIDS is more prevalent. And just being curious, leads to having sex before you are suppose to, and can lead to STD's or teen pregnancy. One of my closest friends warned me of this. She has 2 son's (both teens), I didn't expect this from my son, given we are strict and we do believe in grounding a kid. I just set high standards for my children and I expect them to meet those expectations. I guess I will get over it, but I am still disgusted by it all and angry. Feeling like my 5 year old is tainted, and hoping he will forget what he saw. Can you imagine if he goes around telling people about the porn he saw? Legal issues is what comes to mind...

It will be okay, Fngrs ! I think if you can downplay it with the 5 yr old to just let him know that he didn't do anything wrong and that oldest DH had things on there that weren't good, that eventually he'll forget. Since littlest DS is too young to be actually aroused by it, or probably even understand it, I don't think he'll remember it.

 

[L.E.]

MzSwizz, Wow your process is really moving right along. It is all happening pretty quickly, isn't it? I thought it would take longer to get the ball rolling, but I guess the Navy doesn't mess around! You and DH definitely did get your BDing in at good times, so you have such a good chance!

 

[L.E.]

Hmm well for me, I'm still having some spotting and it's red, but it seems more watered-down and there really isn't a lot of it at all. My drive is way up, so that has to mean something. We BD again last night. I hadn't had any spotting or bleeding for several hrs before and even had a liiiittle bit of ewcm. But overnight/today I'm having some spotting again. I'm just happy that BDing didn't induce a flow again and that the spotting is mild. So that's a plus. Like I said earlier, I woke up late so my temp is off, but it still pretty much matched the highest temp I've had this cycle. We'll see what happens tomorrow.

 

[mzswizz]

Excited for you L.E. hoping you ov soon!!


AFM, I GOT A NEW JOB its da full time Transit Operations Agent job i wanted so now we get to save more money before leaving!!

Excited for you L.E. hoping you ov soon!!


AFM, I GOT A NEW JOB its da full time Transit Operations Agent job i wanted so now we get to save more money before leaving!!

Thanks and CONGRATS on the new job!! When do you start?

 

[FngrsCrossed]

L.E. I so wish that the dips weren't random. A piece of me thinks it wasn't. I swear spotty just can't take a hint! Neither can AF! For the love of goodness, she should really take spotty and go on vacation already!! I will admit, am excited about your temp today. I refuse to allow myself to accept that you woke up late. :/ I am telling myself that the temp you have would be your temp at your regular time. yay for your temp!! Your drive being up is a good sign!!! Means that if you haven't already ovulated, then its upcoming. EWCM?!?! How awesome!! Could be the soy being so kind! I hope my Flaxseed Oil and EPO do their job. Other than that I might have to add Mucinex to the competition too. If I did that it would have to be the liquid though. I am already swallowing 5 pills everyday, enough is enough on the pills.

Guess I am ovulating from the left ovary this cycle, I have started with the sharp twinges...Which means that the severe ovulation pain will follow in a while. I felt them on and off all day today. It's a nice warning that I should get dancing. DH and I need a conception-moon. A little vacation to TTC. I am going to run that by him and see what he says. Lot's of couples go on vacation and come back pregnant. even if I don't get preggers, at least I will have gotten a good vacation out of it. What I wouldn't give to go to Puerto Rico and sleep in a hammock on the beach.

 

[FngrsCrossed]

MsSwizz congrats on the new job. That must be exciting, bad timing on them calling back though, given you are leaving and all. But hey like you said at least you guys can save some money until you go. Are you going to tell them that you are joining the Navy?

 

[mzswizz]

Thanks L.E. and im not sure when i start yet because i have to send off some paperwork to them which i didnt get in the email so now i have to call her and let her know i didnt get it tomorrow.

Fngrs-Yes im going to tell them that im going to the Navy and yes it is suuch bad timing but I got to make the best of it. So atleast I can finally have a full time job that pays well. And i think these jobs are getting thrown at me as a test to see if im going to drop the whole Navy idea and just continue working but nope...we got wayyyyy more benefits and will be able to afford children etc then if we stay here and continue working. Im ready for babies and with the free healthcare we get..you better believe im taking advantage of it

 

[L.E.]

Fngrs, Part of me thinks the dip isn't random but I hate getting my hopes up since they get crushed every time. The next couple temps will really tell me, so I'm hoping they're conclusive either way. My temps haven't gone over 97.5 in the 47 days I've been temping, so if it goes over that and stays there, I would be getting excited.

Yea there was only a little bit of the EWCM, but the rest was fertile- watery, slippery, clear yesterday and today... so that's good. I haven't had any sign of spotting (not even near cvx) for maybe 6 hrs now, but that happened yesterday then I had the little bit of spotting this morning and today. My little voice of hope says maybe just maybe I O'd or am O'ing. Yea my drive being up is good. I don't think DH minds. Now if I hound him again tonight, I'm not sure how he'll feel about it, but I'm pretty persuasive.

Oh and yay for partial ferning and O pain!! I had some spasms on my left side Sunday night (technically early early Mon), but I get those every now and again.

 

[FngrsCrossed]

Here is hoping that it wasn't random. I really do think that the Soy was a good idea. And yay for no spotting. That can only be good. I can't wait to see your temp this morning. See those spasms on the left and the double dip make me wonder. I hope you get another rise and continue to have a sustained rise for 9 months!!!! yay yay yay! I had my pep talk with my ovaries, they seem excited about ovulation this cycle! balloons fell and confetti flew at the pep rally. I guess my Dh isn't running from me but toward me...lol he tried last night to dance. I told him, he'd to save it for game time...lol He said awe, when is game time? lol I told him I would let him know when the fertile period started. So TCOYF changed fertility to today when I added my temp. Don't know what that is about. I am seeing a few of my ovulation temps on there, so I guess I better hop to getting my opks. Cd12 used to be my ov day, so I will be sure the dance on that day and I guess every other day, just so DH doesn't get exhausted.

 

[FngrsCrossed]

MsSwizz I can't believe FF took away the CL...Maybe tomorrow it will be back. But that dip isn't a bad thing at all. FF can be such a pain sometimes. smh

 

[mzswizz]

Fngrs-yeah it dropped by .37 so i wouldnt think it would have changed it but it did and maybe its a fallback temp.

AFM, Well i dont know what to make of my temps nor my chart. Dh and i have decided that after this cycle, its going to be no more temping for me. I might just use the opks or maybe not. And just wait until our appt with my ob/gyn in july. Today, dh and i have our appt with our recruiter at 1pm so dh is home and im only going to do 2 1/2 hours of work today. We dtd today just in case i am ovulating. So we shall see.

 

[L.E.]

Hi, ladies!! MzSwizz, I hope your appt goes well! Fngrs, do you think you'll be Oing early? Well for me, you can see by my chart that my hopes were really dashed again. Not only did I start spotting at 2 a.m., but it was a bleed by 5:30 a.m. and my temp was way down this morning. Days like today make me want to just get on the pill and give up.

 

[L.E.]

Well at least my charts make for good comedy. The predictors never know what to do with me, so I'd better be busy in June!
