The One Year Strong Ladies!

[Spunky]

I tilt my hips up for about 15 minutes (unless I'm on a beach).

I was also doing the legs in the air every time DH left the room. This last cycle, on my two CBFM peak days, we used https://www.liberator.com/eng/product/liberator-wedge/10021 one of those. It's actually really great for in general, and DH loves it. Hadn't used it in a long time (did when we first got married), so I dragged it out the other day. Figure get those as close as possible!

I'm really not sure how I feel about this cycle at all at this point. I know my timing, as far as I could control, was great. Two/three days before O, and the day of, day after. Couldn't get better than that. By this point the last two cycles I was spotting for , so at least I don't have that. I am utterly , I could just lie down on the couch and take another four hour nap like I have the last three days, and still sleep the 7 or eight hours at night. Ugh.
Very thick yellow CM. Just, gobs. Not a lot at all, just when I wipe (I know, I know, TMI). Some pelvic "pressure" (because I don't know what else to call it).

I talked to a friend/colleague of mine who is a GYN today about what my *current* GYN is telling me (try for a year, and then we'll jump to Clomid). She didn't like that idea - said they should at least *look* at what's going on, see if I need follicle stimulation, make sure I am ovulating. Her words were "Why don't they just set you up, make sure you're ovulating, stimulate you if need be, BOOM, you're pregnant, it's done, everyone is happy."
If it weren't for the fact that DH is out of work till who knows when, and I didn't know what was up with insurance, I would just switch to her. I just like her outlook better. DH doesn't understand why you would tell someone to wait for a year to keep trying without trying to figure things out. We'll see...

Well, exhaustion and yellow tinged discharge are pregnancy symptoms, and sounds like you covered your basis, could be good things in the works!

We got the liberator wedges (the big and the little) when we first got married too, like 7 years ago. They've mostly been up in the closet the last few years though, good idea to break em out again! I definitely don't look like those girls on the website (of course neither does my husband) and I'm not nearly as bendy!! But they can be fun and they do a nice tilt! I was thinking about it the other day for after sex so I wouldn't have to use my abs to hold my hips up (lol, that lazy I guess!) but it didn't occur to me to use for sex!

I too wish that if you go in and tell your doc you're trying or about to start they would do a basic work-up. All I got was come back in a year if it's not working and my immunities checked (and then a measles/mumps/rubella booster since mine apparently wore off from when I was little). I did get a VERY thorough exam. Has anybody had their rectum violated by their doctor? Cause I did at that visit and I'm still like how the hell did that happen? Am I alone? Hope not

 

[Spunky]

Does anybody know if burst blood vessels in the eys is a pregnancy symptom? :S I can't think of any other reason BOTH my eyes would be bloodshot :S

XxX

Haven't heard of it... I've known people that get them from stress or from truama, but that's it. Sorry

 

[CottlestonPie]

I get them sometimes from being reeeeeeeeally tired, but not that often.

 

[Kitten91]

I have Never had my rectum violated by a doctor sorry.
the whole immunity thing i can relate too though i have an immune deficency...
oooh before i forget ladies:

Sandra reading it's spot on

Hi tiffani , what i have for you is first off the month of april coming in linking to a baby girl now if this was for a birth then you would have to conceive now , if this is not the case then i feel april would be the conception month for you , and the month of late november would be birth time i feel. I want to mention where this girl though seems to have a lighter colour of hair than you , i'm also being drawn to you as a child and i feel you may have had lighter hair as well at some point.

Going to chose three cards now see what they have to tell you
The first card is The web Weaver
This is showing me where everything that you are doing now in preparation is what you should be doing, i feel they are reassuring you that you are doing nothing wrong with regards to ttc, everything is the way it should be , all is in order at the moment in a sense, and to be honest its just a matter of time before something happens. I want to mention that i feel you are a very nervous person generally , you also seem to get quite worried a lot as well , and i feel at the moment you are anticipating something happening , you are excited, but yet fed up waiting in a sense.

The second card is Sisters of the seasons
This is showing me where everything again is happening as it should be , and at the time frame ot should be , what this is telling you is that everything is in order, going exactly how it should be, everything is going to plan in a sense. I want to say where i feel that the 17th of a month will be important for you as well either linking to conception or due date. I also want to say that i feel you have to go with the flow a bit more , take things as they come and not worry so much , i feel you do want things to happen as fast as possible, but what you are getting from spirit is the reassurance that you will have a healthy baby, no matter how fast or slow it happens, it will happen.

The third card is the wise woman of wonderland
This is showing me where there may have to be some sort of compromise that you have to think about in a sense. I want to say where i feel you are a very wise and clever woman , any decisions that you do make you will make the right ones. I want to say where i feel that you will have the happiness that you deserve. I want to say where you are such a caring and generous person, you always seem to worry about everyone else as well, i feel you would do anything for anyone , and you hardly ever put yourself first.

I am tired today, but my right eye has been shot for a couple days. My left eye started hurting this morning, and I noticed that one was shot when I got home this afternoon. I'm not stressed. I just had 6 weeks holiday haha. Ah well, I suppose it's just one of those things. Hopefully they will be better in a couple days, cuz they really hurt >.<

Thanks for all the replies though... I guess I'm just looking for extra symptoms lmao

[Kitten91]

[Kaede351]

Thanks haha, me too

I've been like a woman posessed this month! I don't know what it is... maybe it's because I used OPKs this month? no idea, but everything has meant something this month lol.

Anyway, I'm definately going to bed now. My eyes are killing me, they feel like someone is sticking them with needles :S Plus, they feel better when they're closed lol

Night girls ^^

I totally hear you about the b00bs. I'm friggin' fixated. Every time I look in the mirror I'm like, "Are my nipples bigger? Does that look darker? Is that a vein??" Not to mention I am obsessed with the CM.

God, we turn into sick people during the 2ww, don't we?

Chelsea - only anally retentive (haha) doctors do a rectal exam on young girls, or if there is a reason to, like if they have colon cancer, crohns disease, etc, and even then, we usually defer it to a specialist. I have never had my gyn go there either.

 

[Spunky]

I agree that we turn into sick people during the 2ww.

Every tww I start wondering about my boobs... I have very fair skin and can see veins all the time, but more or more visable veins are another symptom, so evertime I'm like are my areolas dakrer? More veins? I was thinking about taking a non pregnant picture of my boobs to compare each month to talk me out of it How else am I supposed to be able to tell?

Well, the doc said she wanted to feel my uterus from the back. I was like I'm 25?! Why would I need that?! She was like are you denying medical care? And i was like no.... Still think it was weird.

I just took a nap on the couch while watching tv. I got three days where I wasn't swamped with fatigue, the three days I got pos opks... which is weird. Just hoping this is a strong ovulation, whatever that would mean. I have been soooo tired. Hoping it'll be worth it. (I looked back at my charts - not temps but symptoms. And I went off the pill in Jan, and I felt this tired at this time of the month for Feb, March, and April, and now August why I wasn't tired for May-July dunno )

 

[Kitten91]

Hahaha !
i think that last time, i thought there was a possibility i thought i found veins that i never seen before, and it didn't help that OH was like "babe you're boobs are getting bigger" sorry tmi.
Hahaha lol, i have never experienced it, though when i was about 15 i was suffering with really bad abdominal pain, and my doc didn't believe i still had my cherry think he thought i was lying because i was with my mum, and sent me for an ultrasound, they made me drink 6 Pints of water, and i was like but i'll explode, anyways i went everything was in good working order, and i was holding my legs crossed coz of it.

Any1 heard from Erica(MrsJerome) i hope she is alright..

 

[Spunky]

I ask my husband if my boobs are bigger every month (not necessarily during the tww) because I got chubby a few years back (I was like a us 2/4 from like age 15-20 and am now a 12) and I'm still not used to having boobs! He just tells me "I don't know if they're bigger, but they do look nice" I swear it's his response everytime!

Only just the once from Erica when she told us what happened. She said she probably will only check on us occasionally...Don't blame her...

 

[Kitten91]

2/4 being a UK 6/8 ? and a 12 being a UK 14?
i was a 6/8 when i was 14/15 but that was down to an ED, my mum had to control every aspect of my life and was more interested in my little brother and sister. then i went up to a 16 due to stress and depression, and then i got down to a 12/14 but alot of stress over the last year and i am a 12 on top and 16/18 on bottom. i was still quite busty then though i have always been a C/D cup, no more no less, i was flat chested until i was 14 though a bra wasn't necassarry at all.
be glad you have boobs though i know a woman who's size 18 with AA boobs, and people recon you get big ones when you put weight on LOL is balls

i hope things are ok for erica, i really do.

 

[NJAngelAPN]

I'm a US 16 - always been a bigger girl - when I was in high school and really active with sports (swim and water polo), I was a 10 with an A chest. That was actually too skinny for me at the time too. I'm not comfortable where I am, but I'm perfectly fine at a 12/14. It's very difficult losing weight when all I do is come home and sleep.
I got pictures of the nursery my friend did for her little boy - I'm all excited because the birth announcement I'm working on for her matches PERFECTLY. She has no idea either, and it wasn't planned that way, so I'm happy. Thing is, once it's done, I have to get it framed and ship it from New Jersey to California - that's going to be expensive.

B00bs definitely looked more vein-y tonight, but don't seem as big as the last couple days. Like I said, I have NO clue as to how I feel about this cycle. I don't feel as positive as I did the last few, and those were no-gos. So who knows - maybe this feeling of "NOT pregnant" is a good thing for me? 'Course it could be that I'm really kind of "what will happen, will happen." Trying not to freak out this time around. HA! Too late...

 

[Kitten91]

i know what you mean, sometimes it's hard not to get you're hopes up though.
i'm worried about how OH will react if sandra is right and if i concieve this month, but i am sooo excited about it
