Wow, fancy car! You must be excited!
I always name my cars too....will try and think of a name for yours.

 

[LuckyD]

omg you guys are hilarious. my cupkootch needed icing last night but i was asleep by the time dh got home lol.

sorry soph, i caved and tested already, 12dpo BFN!!! Rubbish. Am a bit upset about it, esp coz the only spotting ive had this month was 10dpo and it was different to previous months, it was like a gush of brownish cm. so in my head, i was like ooooh maybe IB. but, obviously not or it wouldve showed up today on a sensitive test. grrrrrrr. Im sad. will be on to cycle 8 by the weekend.

other than soph, is anyone else testing soon?

Oh honeybee sorry about the BFN. That is indeed rubbish. So sorry you are feeling upset I really hope that AF doesn't show up for you, but I understand feeling sad about a bfn at 12dpo as well. My fingers are crossed for you love xxxxxx

ugh I feel so bad today and cross very cross its annoying! DH has gone to work in a bad mood because of me. I was moaning about my weight as I have been working really hard at losing weight, I exercise every night either an hour walking or an hour swimming and follow weight watchers and this week was a great week exercise and diet wise ( I even kept clear of junk when we were camping) and weighed my self this morning and with out my shoes I have lost half a pound not a great motivation to keep at it is it! I mean put on my shoes and I'm exactly the same. I have been doing really well with watching my sugar in take and have it very low and DH thinks I need to cut it out all together but the thought of that makes me shiver that makes for a very bland diet and how long could I keep that up! I mean you can not live like that for ever. to day I give up LOL well I don't as I'm not letting my diet slip.

sorry for moaning and being all about me I just needed to get that out! I feel like im Pre AF all ready very snappy!

 

[Moondance]

Might someone pretty please explain to me what this "baking soda finger" is all about. I've never heard of it before.

My chart is really confusing this month. It's all over the place. Wish I knew what was going on!!! Up to CD 29 and still no ovulation. Which means I've missed out again this month. Stupid erratic, harebrained cycles!

 

[tryforbaby2]

ahhhh tryfor i want us all to have BFPS right now then we can pick up the TTHF thread and march off to first try with it. though it wouldnt be long til you sneak off to second try huh!!! btw that pic of you and your dh is so cute he looks really hot and your dd is just so adorable!

ive googled the crap out of progesterone levels and have concluded that my levels mean nothing in terms of being UTD (love that saying too), loads of girls have had this level and even higher and not been pregnant. but at least it means im ovulating ok and if there is a bean on board it should stick. i have one hpt left! Will probably do it tomorrow or the day after and then not buy anymore ever til i have a late period!! im really not feeling optimistic though i have no symptoms at all and i had that spotting the other day, have sore boobs but always get them pre af.

i really hope that the weather is nice at the weekend, i really want to go for a picnic up on the hills and sunbathe and stuff.

Thanks! Glad you think he's hot and DD is adorable!!! He's my sexy Italian!!!

no you've got me thinking about erotic bakeries!!! Like this one:

Only you Jaimie!!! That would be nice to have with a naughty party!! I have been dying to throw one!!!

 

[Titi]

I lurve LuckyD's massive multi quote threads!! Sorry I imagined hobbits at our camp on your land ~ I was feeling really silly today and could not resist. I'll go back to associating NZ with flightless birds : ) You really hit it right on the nose with "empathy" ~ that is the key for me and I think we TTHFers have it in spades : ) That is why I love y'all.

I forgot to say thanks for sharing your "meeting OH" story Titi - I thought it was fantastic. He really does sound like a great guy.

Soph - I think your car is a silver bullet! And you definitely should not bake any cakes in your vajayjay. Don't let Squirrel try and talk you into it!

Oh come on, don't you want to try...

vajacakes? Or how about cupkootches

I'm always exactly the same with weight loss, I can exercise my butt off and eat right to no avail. The only time in my life I ever lost weight was when I lived in the country with my ex friend Sharron. I moved in with her to be her physical carer as she had disabilities. Basically she wound up using me. 6:30am starts, working my ass off all day, one meal a day if that (she'd berate me if I took time off to sit down)... to keep my sugars up I ate lollipops (bad I know). So from 6:30am til about midnight, it was constant constant constant on the go. I wound up not having any time to do anything personal like even clean my room. So she'd verbally abuse me calling me a dirty pig for living in such squallor when the only reason I had a messy room was because from the time I moved in with her, I never got to even unpack half my stuff.
And she was constantly threatening to kill herself, calling me a lazy bitch and all sorts of names. Once she even went into my bedroom and threw my stuff everywhere, smashing some of my things that were very dear to me. She never apologised for that either.
She also just kept buying more and more and more animals, knowing it would have to be MY job to take care of them all. We ended up with 60 chickens in a suburban backyard (8 were mine, the rest hers), she had 2 peacocks, 2 parrots, 3 dogs, 50+ chickens, countless birds that came and went (like she'd buy them, something would happen and she'd replace it with another)... I did EVERYTHING and was constantly stressing about when she'd next abuse me.
After 4 months with her, I lost 20kg which I'm sure is mostly from stress, since my diet didn't change apart from consuming 10 times more lollipops than even before in my life!
It took over a year for me to end up putting all that weight back on!

But trying to lose weight is SO hard.... made even harder when you're not losing weight fast enough to keep you motivated!

[tryforbaby2]

LuckyD, I am sure it gets alittle emotional working with young people when we all want young people of our own, thats part of the reason I stopped watching baby emma, I would get upset when she had to go home with her mother and I would miss her if I didnt see her for a few days!!! It's hard. But when you do become pregnant, Lucky, you will be so incredibly happy and I pray it happens for you now. I am sick and tired of waiting for all the great women I have meet on here to get their bfp when they deserve it so badly. Thinking of you LuckyD!!!
Awesome how DH makes everything look better than it really appears!! Seriously, your pictures are always gorgeous!

Soph, I know almost 11 weeks. I cannot believe it. I am thinking of the names:
Jeanie, Smokes/Smokey, Jennie or Turbo for your car!!! LoL, not good at car names!!! Mine was just babes or girl!!

 

[Titi]

OMG this has been the best way to start my morning. I LOVE this thread. I am laughing my PANTS off! DH is not a morning person and doesn't seem to find all this as funny as me. Watch out kootchcakes, I was more worried of making a volcano in there! (7th grade science experiment involving baking soda and vinegar!).
Moondance- the BSF (baking soda finger) is a spin off of a baking soda douche technique which is an alkalizing treatment for infertility. Some people cannot conceive because the vagina is too acidic which creates hostile cervical mucus that kills sperm. Baking soda is alkalizing so it counters the acid. Our therapist had ttc for years to get pregnant and after a zillion tests they did the post sex test in his wife that discovered all the poor dead for this reason. He told them to do the baking soda douche and they fell pg that cycle. My therapist said after all that time and money they got pg for 79 cents!
BSF is supposedly easier and more efficient.
SOPH-I know it sounds scary but keep in mind at 34 and ttc 20 cycles I would actually probably stick a real actual firecracker up there if you promised I'd have a baby 9 months later!!!!!!!! And don't worry Squirrel-I did it two cycles and got itchy one cycle. And I went CRAZY with it that cycle-I did it a zillion times and used way to much BS.
I WAS itchy and a little sore (could have been mild thrush, IDK) about a week later but oddly enough really tight (sorry tmi) at the same time which was very strange side effect?!?!?!?
CelticNiamh-don't feel bad! 1/2 pound isn't bad at all.......its the slow weight loss that stays off the longest! Also, you have been exercising a lot so likely are gaining muscle which looks better but weights more than fat-see how you look & how your clothes fit more than the # of the scale for motivation!

Honeybee-so sorry about the bfn ...........and I'm with you on AF denial (IE-'could it be ib????/pg spotting?'-happens to me all the time. I can't tell you how many hpts I've actually done on cd1, cd2, etc. Hope in your case it is not the witch!

Wow I'm going to have to read more, to compete with these long posts! Glad you liked the DH story. I'm still only on p.7 of the backthreads........will add more of my stuff as I read up on yours........

 

[Jaimie2Eyes]

honeybee & niamh Try and be patient with yourselves, much easier said than done I know. Honey - I'm due for AF next Friday, so a little over a week. Really hope the witch stays away hon.

Niamh - weight loss happens much more slowly than we are lead to believe, especially in our 30s. 1/2 pound really is a great accomplishment!

Howdy TryFor! When you started listing names I thought it was for your bubs!! When I got to smokey I was like what?! You could definitely make your own baked goods for a naughty party - who would you invite?

Titi - I'm so glad you were amused by the BSF chatter last night ~ I was so worried I might have offended you by going to town on it like that. I agree, I'd stick a firecracker up there too if it got me pg I wonder if there is a home test you can do to see if your vagina is too alkaline around ov?

Moon - is the cream helping yet?

 

[Titi]

I am seriously very lighthearted....It takes a LOT to offend me, despite my recent grumps about DH's cousin.

I think there is a home test you can do-with the standard ph strips. In fact I think there is a new otc vagisal kit for home testing for infections that might include this.........that's not of course what it is for-but think you can use it that way. Either way I've heard if you put the ph strip in your vg (something else for you to stick in there Jaimie-yay!!!) you can google acidity levels. I think anything below a 7 is ok and anything lower than a 4 is good if I am remembering right but I'm not sure. That is one of the big selling points of the preseed/preconceive+. They are just the right texture but ph balanced (IE-alkaline) for best sperm survival.

 

[honeybee28]

lol jaimie hands up everyone who thinks that tryfor should call her baby Smokey!! haha. it is a good name for soph's car though.

ahhh thanks titi, yeah i do it every month. i always end up googling something like 'spotting on cd10 could it be implant bleed'. i should learn by now it's never going to be an IB and i really think the month i get my bfp i wont have any spotting at all. we'll see!! also, every hpt i do i stare at for hours. sometimes when i get home from work, i'll get it out of the bin and stare at it again!! haha crazy.

niamh im sorry you feel down honey, defo keep going. i find if i diet some weeks i stay the same, and then i keep going and loose a few pounds all in one go. stick at it!! (but i totally couldnt have a sugar free diet, unless they invented sugar free icecream etc)

mmmmm. bought new icecream today. haagen dazs cookie dough yessssssss.

 

[Titi]

Oh Honeybee I'm glad I'm not the only one who is google crazy and who also things that somehow my completely negative hpt is going to somehow magically turn itself into a + if only I leave it in the trash long enough before peaking again!!!!!!!!!

 

[Titi]

PS my mom had four children so I asked her if she ever had Implantation bleeding and she never, not once......so I doubt I will have it either.........

Oh-and also-has anyone else ever played really weird ocd like mind games with pg. Like sometimes I think if I am pg but test it will be negative (like I'm jinxing myself) but if I can just hold out like I don't care until AF is due it will be +

Or that If I keep a symptom I think I have to myself I'll be pg but if I google it or share it on B&B then I'm jinxing it too?

 

[Jaimie2Eyes]

Love your reasoning on the hpt in the trash Titi - there is a post on the 999 reasons to laugh at infertility blog about how peeing on them twice doesn't make them positive either : )

Yes, I play mind games with myself on the ss and the "if I do this then I will get pg this cycle". I always wish for it when I see the clock say 11:11 or 5:55. Today I ate a tuna sub ~ I've been avoiding tuna but now I'm doing little things like eating and drinking just to say "screw you non-pg body" but secretly hoping that doing all the wrong things will of course bring about a pg. Weird stuff! Overall I'm really trying to back off that craziness but, um, not being so successful.

LOL I have names picked out but so far none are within the 'smokey' range!!!
You guys are all so far away but I would do a TTHF party with the list of items of dirty things to choose from! But I would have a party party back home at someone's house and bake and cook and play dirty games. Girls Only!!! LOL

 

[Jaimie2Eyes]

Some friends of mine have thrown sex toy / lingerie parties. Like tupper ware parties but with better stuff : ) That would actually be pretty darn fun for spicing up BD ~ wish we could have a party like that on LuckyD's land!

 

[honeybee28]

titi and jaimie i TOTALLY play those mind games too. Like if im moody with someone I'll think 'oops, now i won't be pg'. and jaimie i totally do that whole, doing things i wouldnt normally do thing hoping it'll double bluff my body and i'll get knocked up. HA! Crazy stuff huh

oooooh tryfor what names you thinking of!? I'd love it if we could all have a party!! I do love a good party. i really love cocktails.

xx
