Sperm Meets Egg Plan Chatter thread!

[SquirrelGirl]

oh, and welcome to all the new ladies! I lost track of who all is new since I was last on, so if you're new, this Welcome is for you!



My PMA has been all over the place. I was feeling pretty down because it seems like everyone is getting their BFPs around here and there won't be one left over for me, and I can't believe how many pregnant women and little kids I'm seeing around. Then stupid commercials about babies and news stories about -- you guessed it -- babies! I mean, seriously, give me a break!!

But I think my PMA is on the way back up today. I just wish I O'd earlier in the month, I feel like I'll be the last one to enter the TWW at this rate!!

Anyway, hope everyone's doing well tonight!

Ness, I think he's telling her to on CD12, CD14, CD16, CD18 & CD20. He's probably trying to keep her relaxed by advising against temping?

Yes that sounds about right. I am sorry for not being clear. Do you think this sounds like a good idea? Please help someone. Sticky baby dust to all

AreIn, I am so sorry to hear about your infertility problems. How do they know it's from Depo-Provera? Do they know the cause of the m/c? Ten weeks seems late for an early m/c. I can't imagine how devastated you must have been.

I completely understand wanting to give up. We had been trying for #2 for about ten months. For us, DD was also a pleasant surprise and this last pregnancy happened for us quickly as well. I did not expect this time to take so long. I had given us three more cycles and I was going to call quits. Don't give up hope ... your is coming!

SquirrelGirl, there are plenty left for you too!

Again, I'm not the best source. Do you know when you ovulate? I ovulate on Day 12 (of a 28 day cycle) so this plan would not be the best option for me. If you want to try SME, go ahead. It's similar to what your DR is suggesting. The difference is you would start on Day 8, then every other day until you get your positive surge on the OPK.

You could create a hybrid of the two plans and every other day from Day8 to Day20.

Ok thank you so much. I will try that next cycle if I don't get my this month. I am thinking I might though just having some weird feelings lately. Idk will just have to wait and see.I really don't know exactly when I ovulate. FF said yesterday I ovulated on the 27th but when I entered temps today it said no clue basically due to temps. Gotta love this ttcing. Thank you for talking to me.

Just thought I would update and say we are still following the SMEP...

It's CD15 for me and we have BD'd every other day...I haven't got a positive OPK yet, which surprises me as I have 28 day cycle..but everyone says to keep on testing and it may be late than I thought, so will keep at it! Luckily I obsessively ordered way more than I need so wont' be running out any time soon!

Fingers crossed for all of you lovely ladies in the 2WW! I am watching this thread anxiously for any news!!!!

xx

 

[reedsgirl1138]

Well ladies I am not sure I will get to use the plan this month!! UGH!! We were due to start it tomorrow and I sometime O on cd12 but can be as late as cd16 and my dh will gone if its later than cd15!!! UGH he has a 3 day drill next weekend. I had so much pma for the month and it just flew right out the window when he told me that!!

 

[mamaxm]

sorry i haven't been on girls! took my dog to the dog park today with OH and we were there allll day.
arein, i'm not sure why your chart changed! but it still looks good which is the important part i put in my high temp earlier than usual, ended up falling asleep and woke up at usual temp time and it had dropped. but no sign of AF yet!
going fertility diet shopping tomorrow! list is so long.. the good news is though that if AF shows, i will be preoccupied with this new diet, if she doesn't, this diet is apparantly good for pregnant women too.. not that i'll stick with it throughout the pregnancy (my family have all had strong cravings for very bad foods during pregnancy, i'm not going to fight them!) but at least i wont be wasting groceries! also thinking of starting an aspirin regimen.
AREIN! only two more days!!! i'm just ready to know, either way it goes.

 

[mamaxm]

ugh no sleep again! going to test in 3 hours! so it is officially the 2nd and AF is due the 3rd. i think a test should be accurate today. wish you ladies were night owls like me so i had someone to chat with!

 

[spencerbear]

I might as welll of sat here chatting to you last night, given the amount of sleep my lovely (normally sleps right through) little 2 yr old had. So i will spend most of today trying to at any opportunity

k so this is my test from this AM (didn't pee for 2 1/2 hours and then i just couldn't wait any longer, so please be honest since my heart isn't truly in this one since i didn't use FMU!). can y'all see anything? i finally figured out how to get pictures from my cell online
i'm not sure. they're definetely screen tilters!

 

[wantingagirl]

my gosh I have missed so much I was at my sisters and then my dad was here and so many pages to read now lol.....

mamaxm no I hadnt had these blobs before cept for when I found out I was pregnant and just had it again yesterday but dont want to look into it incase im not
yes I know what you mean we would be given birth in a couple of months if it worked out the way we wanted it to.

Gingerwhinger both sound so yummy!! haha the moose puddings sound lovely but my fave is cheesecake I cant decide, can you post me some? know what you mean about school they are the same here too.

FX AreIn83, sorry for your testing result maybe too early but I end up doing that too sometimes as cant help myself

Rockabyebaby it may just be too early to show a BFP. I have got clumpy cm too today and yesterday.

welcome dottiemad and GL im sure it will happen for you soon. Im hoping for all of us

Sorry Sophia and hope you get the result you want, you are definitely still in with a chance

Ginma glad your DH agreed it is hard wrok but you just need to stick to it and not too hard considering we were bedding everyday before this, the way I look at it is you feel like you are doing a well worth plan and its only regimented for about 1 week.

hehe... why does it always happen this way spencerbear I have done that once or twice myself and Im too stubborn just to make up to have sex

newmummy - I dont use OPK rubbish at them I use the CBFM

Make a ticker then go to customer profile, edit sigs and add the code there and save. You get the bbc code from your ticker page just copy and paste hope this helps!!!

Reedsgirl GL hope this is your month keeping everything crossed for you

GL and Welcome trying 4 3rd

Thats very true gingerwhinger it can take over our lives and its hard not to think about it but good to try and keep a normal routine as this is when our stress levels stay down. Ness hoe you enjoyed yourself, good to get out and socialise.

OMG bonjo you are not a dissapointment and dont every think like that. Any update on testing?

Im so sorry to hear that AreIn83 and hope you get what you want very soon

Hi to everyone else I may have missed how r u?

Mamaxm im not sure I think I mite see something in the first one??!!

Phew Ive caught up with this thread lol...

 

[Nessicle]

good morning girls!!
how is everyone?

Mamaxm just looked at your tests - I see a slight something on the inverted but I have to be honest babe I don't see anything on the non-inverted there is still time yet though!

6dpo for me today and I have no PMA whatsoever today, I actually feel like crying because I feel AF is defo gonna come on Thursday

She's coming girls I just know it!

xx

 

[wantingagirl]

Ness I dont really have anything either but we can cling onto the hope that the month I conceived I had not one sympton just felt normal so there is a chance for us yet. Scary our AF date is due soon!

 

[winegums]

mamaxm i don't know if it's my screen brightness but i can def see a line on bottom two! i'm on my laptop and when i push the screen further back i can see them even more!!! good luck xxxxxx

thanks Shona

I'm doing my best to cling on to hope but just feel like crying today like I know it's never gonna happen - suppose we all have those days though hey?

I don't know, guess I'll always feel like this in the 2ww until I actually miss an AF

can't believe AF is due in 6 days!! eek!

 

[soph77]

mamaxm - I can sort of see a faint something on the inverted but I'm sorry I can't see a line on the others I hope you get some darkening soon and get that bfp

Ness - I had no symptoms with ds pregnancy until I was about 5 weeks and got sore boobs. But then again, he was a surprise so I wasn't looking for symptoms!

Well I am now officially in the 2ww at 2dpo, I will get my crosshairs tomorrow and even though we had crappy bd this cycle, we did manage to do 1 on o day so I am hoping that it will be enough to get lucky. It only takes 1 right?

 

[Nessicle]

thank you Soph! I have some "symptoms" but nothing different to any other cycle so I think they're all pretty normal for me though!

I hope the 2ww goes fast for you honey xx

 

[mamaxm]

no sorry's girls! i really love honest answers and i'm glad i can get them from y'all it was after holding for maybe two hours. i've got one more hour then i'm going to try again, this time i've been holding for four hours.. winegums, i think i might possibly see something on the last one too! i can on the inverted but i'm not sure how i feel about it. only the witch knows, wonder if she's gonna bring me some bad news tomorrow..
ness, pma! this is your third cycle right? well three is my lucky number and three is a good number in general

 

[wantingagirl]

yes Ness I remembered this feeling like last time all too well and we just cant help ourselves guess thats why they call it a rollercoaster but hey we just keep on going? Its so scary mines is due weds and willing myself not to test

Sophia definitely only takes one I hope you get your BFP

mamaxm keep us updated
