What's new

.:Shortcake:. · #1 January 19th, 2012, 07:15 AM

Okay ladies what's new? Anything new going on in your life? Are you trying anything new this cycle?

StacieRN · #2 January 19th, 2012, 08:49 AM

Well, after my last post here..about not being sure if I was ready to ttc...my dh and I had an "oops"...miscommunication really...but either way it has me in the tww. I truly think it was too early and we are out for this month..but I won't know for sure until I can test. Luckily, I'm working my tail off this week so that will keep my mind occupied until I can test.

How are you feeling about that, Stacie? Are you okay with it?

Umm, I'm doing ok. I am still scared and confused..I have ups and downs. Sometimes I have this issue with I don't want another baby...I want Kayden. I don't want to just be pregnant again...I want to be pregnant with Kayden. But other times I'm more at peace and can't wait to tell my next baby about his big brother that's an Angel in Heaven. Thanks for thinking of my Robyn.

How have you been?

This will be my first time actually TTC and charting my cycles... I am very irregular, so it will be interesting to see what exactly is going on!

I am hoping I get to my first cycle soon as I can't start till then...grrrr

I actually feel the same way about wanting my baby back. I think in some ways it's easier for me having an early loss because I can tell myself (no matter what the gender) that it's Gabriel coming back to us since I never knew the gender in the first place. That seems to be the line of thinking that helps me most, even though I know that at a biological level it's not going to be the same child. So, I get by thinking of the spiritual side of it if that makes sense.

I'm hanging in there. Coming up on the 1 month, so I think it's going to be a rough weekend. At least I have a busy weekend that will hopefully help!

I'll keep thinking of you.

When are you planning to test/when is AF due? I'm around 9 DPO now. AF is due the 24th. I'll be thinking of you.

Nothing too new going on around here. I'm tempted to test tomorrow, but I'm too scared to do anything until AF is late.

I'm 3 dpo...AF is due the 29th. I'm not sure this was a regular cycle as it was my first PP AF. It came 26 days after my loss. So this is all based on a 26 day cycle that may or may not be "normal"...kwim? I completely understand on being too scred to test until AF is late...I'm right there with you! I'll be thinking of you, too! If I do test early I think I'm going to test on the 26th before we board the plane to the in-laws...but no sooner than that.

I hope the outcome will be whatever you want it to be. I also hope working keeps your mind off of things.

I hope your weekend passes quickly. I find that sometimes leading up to important days is harder than the actual day.

How exciting! I hope you get your BFP when you test.

Thanks, Katie!

martilynne · #11 January 19th, 2012, 09:14 PM

I'm pretty sure I Oed today or yesterday but DH and I have been so busy and tired all week so we only BDed on mon

If one of us isn't tired and in the mood the other is asleep. I'm pretty sure we are out this cycle.

The good news is that I'm going to Dallas on sat to hang out with some of my very awesome PR ladies

Shadeauxe · #12 January 20th, 2012, 04:09 AM

I have mostly been crazy trying to get stuff done. Holidays, Taxes, Disney trip, business stuff.

I have also discovered that Massachusetts is the most expensive state in the country for day care. I knew it was high, but I didn't know it was the highest. The most expensive center I've seen charges $2100/mo for infants and the cheapest I've seen is about $1100/month and it's not a great place, kind of dirty and noisy. Home day cares are not much cheaper.

LittleMomma09 · #13 January 20th, 2012, 04:52 AM

I am not trying anything "new" this cycle. I have decided this cycle to chart and use OPKs. Mainly because I don't always take my temp on 3hours of sleep. Also we are going to be BD every other day instead of everyday. We can't start to BD until CD 10 because of my UTI. They told me to put it on hold until I am off of antibiotics. Hopefully all will go good. We are planning on taking a mini vacation to the Smokey Mountains around O time. Hopefully relaxing around a pool will help.

Courtney that is CRAZY! I can't believe it cost that much. How many days until your Disney trip?

I hope your UTI is gone soon and I hope the BDing every other day works and you get your BFP!

Shadeauxe · #15 January 20th, 2012, 07:08 AM

13 days until Disney. Yay!

jessjillmama · #16 January 20th, 2012, 07:38 AM

We are trying pre-seed this month which is new for me. I am mad at dh though I am probably O today and could not get dh to bd last night. No temp rise yet though so we will bd tonight for sure.

Belita · #17 January 20th, 2012, 09:01 AM

I'm trying red raspberry leaf capsules, 50mg of B6, Evening Primrose Oil, and baby aspirin.

I used to live near the Smoky Mountains. I miss it so much! When I would get bored in class I would just stare out the window at the mountains.

I love it! We live around Knoxville so it's really close to just go there for the day or stay the night. You can see them from where we live also. It's mountains everywhere though.

I hope that brings you a sticky BFP!!

LindsayGriff · #20 January 21st, 2012, 09:21 AM

Nothing new this cycle. I still haven't had PP AF. It wil be 4 wks post D&C on Wednesday, still waiting for my HCG to come down. Doctor isn't monitoring as my path showed no molar pregnancy so she said we could start trying right away. I am not charting or doing anything, just BD every now and again because who knows, some can make things happen even without 1 pp AF.
