Still no AF for me and I am getting super annoyed. I am getting a ton of signs yet the witch is refusing to show up. I just want to start a new cycle.
Sounds like you should test, Nichole!
Yay Sonia!!! Glad she's finally come for you! Nichole, I hope she gets you soon too.
AFM, cramps like whoa. Hoping its a good sign. Also, my boobs are killing me. To bend over, reach above, to wear a bra, to not wear a bra...yay. Last month they didn't hurt till AF came so this is exciting!
Rachel, those sound extremely hopeful!! When are you going to test?
Hello ladies! I am Julie. I am 29, DW is 28. We have been ttc #1 since January. We took May off because I found out I had low progesterone. Doc thinks either I'm not Oing or have a weak O. Based on my temp shifts and positive opks, I'm thinking a weak O. So, I decided to take the month to focus on healthy eating and taking supplements. I've lost 10 lbs and prog went from 2.4 to 6.9. We are going to give it a few more months of trying to level hormones naturally before trying clomid.
I am cd4 today, AF just ended. So, we are back to ttc this month making it our 5th month. We are using a known donor and doing at-home insemination.
I am officially out of school (I'm a teacher) as of Thursday. As I was on my way home they called and asked me to teach summer school...I can't turn down money, so now I'm back to teaching! lol Luckily it's only 4 weeks, 4 days a week, 4 hours a day. So, it's not too bad. We have our annual camping trip next weekend, so we are excited for that! When we get back it will be about O time.
Amanda-It was nice to take a break this month. It does get stressful and I think it's good to give our minds/bodies a break from the stress. I say don't do the bc though...if anything maybe just condoms? Even NTNP would be good, but I know what you mean about still thinking about it too much lol
Yay for being out for the summer, Julie! I am so jealous! I haven't decided about BC yet, maybe we will just use condoms. Or just NTNP but im afraid that will turn back into TTC'ing really quickly..i have no self control. Maybe ill go wtih a paraguard iud? My cycles come back asap with those.
Amanda, how was your trip?? Hope you had a blast.
Sonia, did AF show up full force yet?
AFM, serious food cravings. I just drank beef bullion and made fried shrimp and spaghetti lmao. And I want clam strips. Like really really bad. My mouth is watering lol
Trip was great, thank you! It was really lovely to get away!
Yay Nichole!
Julie - I ordered 50 wondfos that should be here Tuesday so I'll prob start testing then which will only be 8 dpo lol. Today I'm only 6 dpo. But let's face it, I am a SS and POAS addict. Just can't help it.
Story of my life! I can't control myself when I have tests in the house!
Nikki, I'm sorry your mom is having a rough time. Im sending good thoughts their way. I hope she can find a new job soon! How are you feeling? Any more symptoms?
Waves, HUGE congrats to you! YAY! Whats your EDD?
Cassidy, how are you? Your signature made me tear up!
Ashlee, How was camping? did you test?
AFM, I am about 4dpo--honestly, I dont know how many days exactly-- we had a great weekend away. It was SOO nice not to think about trying, babies, where I was in my cycle, etc. We spent most of the weekend at the beach, jumping off the big boulders into the lake, and grilling up lots of yummy food. I don't normally post personal pictures on here, but I will put a few up later, it was too pretty not to share! I have no symptoms what so ever-- no sore boobs, no nausea, no cravings/aversions, and its fine with me. I've finally reached a point where I will be okay if I don't get preggo right away- It will happen when it is meant to happen, and I can't force it to happen sooner, as much as I would like to be able to!
