WTT with a view to TTC in Sept/Oct/Nov - looking for a TTC buddy!

[almosthere]

sorry for those who are out!

AFM great christmas day suprise-POS OPK! What a treat if this round is a success! Still in shock I OV on cd 14 when last cycle it was cd22! Guessing I am one dpo based on my chart, but could be wrong...think temp would have been higher today-issue was, I kept waking up then sleeping so did not have a solid 3 hours prior to temping....but do you ladies think ov is confirmed by temps?!

 

[almosthere]

hi ladies hoping everyone is doing well. have not heard from preshfest in a while, I am praying for you and your little bean!

 

[PreshFest]

Hey! I don't get on much when I'm not at work lol and I've had five days off now! But I'm doing well. Still pregnant, still having symptoms. Definitely showing already, but it's my second (third I guess) pregnancy so that's to be expected. Hoping I make it to my ultrasound two weeks from tomorrow and get good news....

I hope you all are doing well and had a great Christmas!

Congrats on ovulating, Almosthere!!

 

[almosthere]

yay preshfest so happy to here the good news and wow showing already, that is so excited and must mean little bean is doing well and growing yay!!

and than you, just noticed some cm in my undies which never happens much and no sex today yet so hoping it means spermie caught my beautiful lucky eggy!! so close to being 2 dpo cannot wait to test. Kind of already being naughty and thinking of testing new years eve or day but I would only be around 6 and 7 dpo so very ealry will try to wait.

parents bugging me again telling them everyone is asking me when I am having a baby lol. gave my normal answer - not for a little while and then my dad agrees (uh oh, hope he will be surprised in a good way when he gets the future news!)and mom was sad as usual to hear the delay lol

anywho hope all are doing well and had good holidays!!

Hey ladies, hope you've had a great Christmas! Mine has been really great and haven't thought about TTC at all until this morning when I had a dream that I had a baby! lol Going to test New Year's Day if AF hasn't showed. I have no idea if/when I ovulated this month as I didn't get any cramps this time. If I don't get a BFP this time, I'm hoping for a birthday BFP next month!!

Sorry to you who are out this month, and I hope the new year brings new luck for you! Here's to (preferably January) 2012 BFP's!!

hi ladies 3rd day of pos opks now starting to wonder if i even ovd on the 25th like i thought. had little bit of white creamy/sticky cm last night and today on undies sry if tmi lol. So a little frustrated and temps are odd compared to last cycle, so no idea whats happening right now...temps are not high at all no coverline yet...

 

[sunshine82]

Hi ladies hope you are all doing well, Presh I am pleased to hear that you are doing well hun, Almosthere good luck for your BFP, i dont use the OPK's but have just ordered some to try for the next cycle, what day do you start using them? Is there a certain time of day I need to do them. Didnt want to use them but two months with no clue of when I am ovulating I need some help pinpointing now to take the guesswork out.
I have just had the weirdest AF, it came on cycle day 29 (usually im 29-37 days, last two 37 but normally 33+ so really wasnt expecting AF xmas eve- totally threw me as had what I thought were promising symptoms. Well 24th I woke with bad cramps and backache went to loo and had light red bleed/pink. That day continued moderate/heavy flow, then christmas day af seemed quite light for 2nd day, almost kept stopping. After xmas lunch I had a really bad dizzy spell and became very very hot!! Af picked up a little later on christmas day but boxing day hardly no flow, and the same 27th and yesterday brown mucus (so sorry tmi)and tiny amounts of brown on pad and nothing since. So pretty much had a 2 day period followed by the brown. Tested BFN so I take it definately out? I wouldnt have had heavy flow as implantation assumably?

So I have ordered these OPK's for this cycle and hope for a Jan BFP!

Lots of baby dust to all and hope you all had a great christmas x

Hi all

Sunshine - I use my opk's from about cd10 but gage it month on month, have shifted to cd12 as know I normally ovulate around cd15 so don't waste too many. Your AF sounds just like mine, it's so annoying not knowing whether finished for it to then start up again.

Presh - sounds positive!

[almosthere]

Hi ladies, so now I am completely unsure if I OVD b.c it looks like I did twice based on my chart and opks! temp rose today which is wonderful news, but no idea when I ovd. This means I could be anywhere from 1dpo to 4dpo! Thinking of waiting to test til the 15th instead of the 7th so I do not get a bfn due to testing too early, but we will all see how long that lasts!

Hope everyone else is doing well!

 

[BabyBumpHope]

Hey almost - you could have conceived twins

X

 

[almosthere]

yes but it is a myth to ov twice, i researched breifly in the past and you could release more than one egg but I think the eggs would relase at the same time right? and that would be absolutely amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[BabyBumpHope]

I'm not too sure about it. How would you feel if you got your BFP and found out it was twins? My DH worries about it! We don't have any twins in the family but I sometimes tease him and say 'imagine if we had 2'!! He says that one would be hard enough but I think secretly deep down he'd be over the moon! Haha

X

 

[almosthere]

I do have twins that run in my family but our fam has not had any for a long while, so hopefully we are next! Truthfully I would be ecstatic to have double the loving, but I would also be very overwhelmed and scared! I would love to have one healthy baby to start, then boy and girl twins after. We need a little practice and I know DH would almost have a panic attack/faint if I heard twins in the doctors office haha

 

[BabyBumpHope]

Haha, it must be a man thing! Imagine their faces if they said triplets!

X

 

[almosthere]

bahahahha!

 

[Soniamillie01]

I would love twins, we have twins in our families so fingers crossed, hubby would to.

Has FF picked up your ovulation Almosthere?

 

[almosthere]

NO sonia! It stinks, I guess I have too many white circles but do not know how to fix them and fill them in, do you? It has given me a range of O day somewhere between cd14 and today (cd18) . Because I could be anywhere from 1-4dpo today, I am thinking of testing after vacation instead of before. The earliest I would be in my cycle before vaca would be cd10-14, ahh! I suppose I could wait til the actual morning we leave (it would be a very early testing time, like Jan 8th at 5/6am!) But non the less it would be with FMU and I could see if I am indeed pregnant. It will be VERY HOT where we are going (Bahamas) would this be dangerous for my little bean if I do get preg? I know I should steer clear of the hot tub and tropical tempting drinks haha. So this is why I think hm maybe I should test before we leave to be safe but it could be too early so I could get a false BFN...ughhh. Think I just persuaded myself to test at my 11dpo-15dpo (Jan 8th!) depending on when I ovulated haha.

P.S. can you ladies believe this Saturday is NEW YEARS EVE?! What are you plans?
DH and I are staying in and maybe visiting my parents and sister before the ball drops. We decided it would be a dead give a way to go to my friends house party and/or bar hop with me not drinking-in case you all dont know, I LOVE to drink a little too much so me not getting completely messy on new years eve would stir up lots of suspicion!

I am also stoked for it to be 2012 because of course, my testing! And second, because it is my graduation year! BA degree, here I come! Already going to start tweaking my resume today, eeek!!

 

[Soniamillie01]

I think there is a key on FF that says what theca various colour circles are. You should be ok in terms of temp but like you say avoid the tubs and tempting drinks!

I cannot believe how quick this yr has gone! DH and I are off to London to bring in NY. The last few we have stayed in so fancy a change! We will see in the new year over looking the Thames right by Big Ben! Cant wait x

Sonia, I am so jealous of your New Years plans!!! I have been in the exact spot that you are talking about. I LOVE London and so wish I could be there, too! My parents used to live in Kent so I spent a bit of time over there. I actually found out I was pregnant with my daughter just a few hours before our flight took off to London : )

I'll be staying in for NYE this year! I'll be getting up early with my daughter the next day, so I need to be rested.

And I have somewhat of an update... So as you all know baby was measuring small with a very slow heart rate.. I haven't been back to the doc since then, but I started feeling flutters yesterday!!!! I obviously can't be certain that it's the baby, but it feels exactly like it did with my daughter. It tickles like crazy. Still trying not to get my hopes up, but I'm already getting so excited!! Ultrasound January 10th.....

Almost, don't worry about the heat in the Bahamas! Just stay out of the hot tubs. I'm very jealous of your trip! I had just started planning a tropical vacation and they got squashed and we will be touring the Oregon coast instead. It's supposed to be beautiful, though!

 

[almosthere]

Preshfast-I will be very cautious this vacation! And that is wonderful to hear you are having flutters, too bad it is so ticklish for you! Haha. Glad to hear you are going to have some kind of vaca to relax!

Sonia-I am also super jealous, sounds like a lovely time! I will be staying in like Preshfest-perhaps cooking w. DH or going out to dinner, still undecided!
