Lovely pics Jo! Y'all look really nice. Handsome boy. Looks like your DH has a big barrel chest like mine does.

Lisa - Time flies! Can't believe it's been 6 months. Still cute as ever.

Tanya - Good luck!

Hi everyone, I will try to read back on posts. Hard to keep up lol. Yes, I am only little 5 ft 1, my DS is tall, when he was a baby, they said he would be 6 ft 3. He towers over me now. Thank you about the comments about my dress. Yes my DH is a big chested bear lol.

I am still watching the charts. Guess we won't be hearing from Tilly for a while lol. Good luck hun.

Becks - can't remember whether I have said but Brooklyn sure is a cutie and growing up so quick.

Regina - I am so glad that Sean is being so good for you. He is so adorable.

Crystal - I am not sure yet whether I am going for another session. I am taking time out from it all and to be honest, I have been quite chilled about it all, not devastated like I thought I would be. Maybe after a bit of a rest, I may think differently.

Becks - yes I wonder if Brooklyn's eyes will change colour. I am not sure about the spotting so I can't really give any advice. Maybe see how your chart pans out/when you ovulate and if you have any worries, speak to doctor to put your mind at rest. Sorry, I am not much help. Thanks for your comments.

Sparkle - did you enjoy watching the Oscars? Hope it's good news regarding the cyst.

Tanya - glad that you have had some rest and still find time to BD. FX'd for your appointment and it's not too scarey. It's nice to have someone that is understanding in these situations and to have someone that you do not feel comfortable with is not reassuring but hopefully she will have some compassion.

Thanks Jo you and dh look so cute together he looks like a big bear I think it's so sweet the height difference, I'm 5 7 and dh is 6 5 so wonder how tall the boys will get. Casey is taking after me ATM but Brooklyn's def following Adam (dh) in the height stakes! Yes the diet is going really well and I'm getting much more used to it now, can't believe I ate so badly, I've always been so healthy til the last couple if years, anyway I'm doing something about it now, that's the main thing I guess! I googled the spotting and apparently it happens to a lot of women and unless it carries on it's not usually something to worry about. Wonder when I will o as I'm sure the stress of having the ceiling pulled down and having to leave the house will affect it! Xxxxx

 

[crysshae]

Becks - I bet they will both be tall. My DH is 6'4". I'm 5'8". Our 15 year old son is 6' 2-1/2" already. He started shooting up a couple years ago and has not stopped. Our 18 year old daughter is 5'10". And the twins are already growing quickly. Looks like they will be shooting up pretty soon. The jeans I bought DS4 in September are already nearly too short! They all grow so fast.

I hope the stress of everything doesn't mess your cycle around too much. You're doing a great job on your diet!

Jo - Good luck in whatever you decide. I'm glad you're feeling at peace with everything right now.

Good luck to everyone TTC. We all seem to be at the same stage in our cycles right now! Lots of BDing going on.

Hi Ladies

Jo - I'm sorry about your news are you just going to keep on trying - I have been taking my Ovaboost - what a dork I am I have just been taking one a day with all the other pills even though I remember checking it was four a day

What a lovely pic of you and your hubby - he looks like a big teddy bear

Oasis - Your boys are gonna be heart breakers that's for sure I think my boys will be of average height I'm 5.5 and ex hubby is 5.6 (always was an issue if I wanted to wear heels) with new hubby no problem wearing heels - me not him

Did you get the ceiling sorted - what a mess about for you

Regina - Wow he sounds like the perfect little man - do you think it is because you are older - you don't get as stressed easily? I remember my first I panicked over everything was he warm/cold enough was he drinking/soiling nappies enough etc. Whereas with my youngest I was like he'll be fine and I think if I ever get the chance to have another I will be laid back

Tilly - Hope you are to busy to be catching up with us on here

Tanya - How are you feeling now?

Sparkle - Any news on the cyst? - will it go away on it's own or will you need an operation

Lisa - How cute does Caitlin look - it's a hard life

So - How are you feeling now - has the BD commenced

I think I have got you all - I am not sure what is happening at all with my chart this month - I have had a really low temp today 35.99 and a low one the day before yesterday - that's why I have disregarded them (maybe its to do with the acu?) or maybe I haven't ovulated I really don't know and I still have this stinking cold so you would think my temperatures would be high not low - confused muchly again.

Oh and of course I tested this morning - NEGATIVE - so now Ive started I can't stop will test again tomorrow

Hi all, another busy day, 8-4 in gym reception and then 2 classes tonight. Tomorrow I am in gym 8-3. Becks - thanks for comments, nice to know we look good together and to be honest I don't realise how small I am until I see photo lol. I get my DS to get stuff out of cupboards that I can't reach lol. Wow your DH is very tall. I am so chuffed that you are doing so well with your eating. It doesn't help ttc with all the stresses, hope your house is sorted soon.

Crystal - Blimey your family are tall. I always wanted to be tall but no,petite. Used to hate people resting their arms on my head lol. Thank you. I don't know what I am going to do, I do feel really relaxed about it all (very strange, considering how I was before).

Fi - We are still ttc but not focusing on it, not POAS constantly, if it happens it happens. Not expecting it to happen. Aw bless you, yes ovaboost is 4 a day. I have ran out and haven't ordered any more as yet. I have still got some agnus castus and don quai though. Yes he is a big teddy bear. I cant think of reasoning why temp has gone down for you. As always the next few days will hopefully clarify things. Good luck everyone xxx

Hope everyone else is ok xxx

 

[crysshae]

I have no idea what my cycle is doing. I'm beginning to wonder if I ovulated early yesterday... I guess my temp tomorrow will help shed some light on it. I hate the wait!!!

 

[Oasis717]

Sorry all I have a broken phone so can now only get on the internet via wi fi! May be on a little less til fixed stressing about the ceiling coming down tomorrow hoping it won't mess my cycle up as I got an almost positive opk today, also had quite bad cramps yest and today. I'd run out so either the surge is leaving or coming lol. Crystal looks like you may well of o yest! Look forward to seeing your temp tomorrow. Love to all xxxxx

 

[josie1234]

Crystal - looking forward to seeing your temps over next couple of days. I am not the best at interpreting charts to be honest. Hope you're ok x

Becks - what a nightmare for you, hope it doesn't mess up your cycle with the stress of it.

Quiet on here today, hope you are all okay. Still stalking your charts Fi and Tanya. No news from me.

 

[tillyttc]

Help ladies got my clear blue ov test out yesterday and nothing yet today its gone straight to a solid smily face iam on cd 10 a little early wtf iam confused we did bd last night I need your input . Xx

 

[crysshae]

Tilly - Sorry I'm no help with those. Never used them.

AFM - My temp went back down, so I guess it's just my CM that is confused. This should be fun...

 

[garfie]

Tilly - I've never used them either but if they are like an OPK you can surge but not release an eggy for some reason - so keep an eye on it and your cm

Cry - my temp usually goes down before O - but for you I guess we still have to wait a few more days

Hi Jo/Becks/Lisa - Hope you ladies are all okay

AFM - I tested NEGATIVE again - I got a bit excited with my temp raise but both an IC and Superdrug says noooooooo! - also remember before O I had a fever - well if I put in Saturday 22 temp 37.17 it says I haven't even O yet so for now I am living in bliss and ignorance and saying I am 9DPO

[josie1234]

Tilly - sorry I cannot clarify for you hun but time will tell. I used to love getting those smiley faces and get so excited but my body just wasn't playing ball! I hope it's different for you, FX for you. xx

Crystal - sorry things are confusing for you. Why aren't things easy eh? Surely CM, opks and temps should all tally to show ov eh but sometimes things just don't look clear. FX for you too xx

Fi - hi hun, I am ok thanks, still quite chilled. No signs or symptoms to speak of to show what my body is doing, not even going to do opk until this cycle finishes (if it ever does). Money tight at the moment so not going to do acupuncture. Wonder if I will get to 100 day cycle, I am thinking so.

How is everyone else?

 

[josie1234]

Fi - forgot to say, nothing wrong with being ignorant lol, FX for you too hun xxx

 

[crysshae]

Fi - Implantation dip???

Well TMI, but since I was still confused about CM and only showing a very teeny tiny amount, I decided to check internally to see if I could find some answers. Found quite a bit of EWCM, so my body is just saving it all apparently. Lol. Makes me feel better about it at least.

 

[Sparkle125]

Hey Ladies!

Well, I went to the doctor this morning and the cyst is still there. But, the good news is it is getting smaller. I was kinda prepared for it to actually be bigger as this week I have had some unusual cramping and pangs. So, I will go back to the doctor next Friday in hopes that it will be small enough soon to move forward with my IVF cycle. I am frustrated, but fine. Ready to get things going!!!

My niece and sister-in-law are coming to spend the weekend with me, so that will be a nice distraction.

Hope everyone is doing well!

 

[josie1234]

Hi Sparkle great news that it is getting smaller. Come on, keep shrinking!! Have a lovely weekend hun. Very quiet on here. How is everyone?

 

[crysshae]

Sparkle - Yay for shrinking! I hope it's gone very soon.

Jo - How are you?

Becks - Get your phone fixed! Lol.
