Michelle - ooohhhh sounds like your body is in perfect condition to catch the eggy. Im hoping and praying for you!
Sarah - Yes you are right about the lead up being worse than the actual edd itself. Ive heard that bd'ing for most of the month can help as we can often misjudge our fertile time. Im hoping that this new approach works But I tell you what, last DH was too tired and said 'havent we got enough storage from yesterday?' LOL!! I used an opk and it was neg so I gave him the night off
Moglie- any news? Did you test?? Oh hun ive got everything crossed for you.
Belindaleen - how are you missy?? I see your ticker is progressing nicley! Bummer about you feeling sick though, hopefully it will settle in the second tri.
Thanks Nola and Kazz for the baby dust - Jayne was our last graduate- we need another one soon so bring on the baby dust!
Well I tested and it was a BFN. I am very disappointed.
I'm still having the hot flushes, so will just have to wait and see. I dont believe these tests, either I'm pregnant or going through menopause really early. Will just have to wait and see what tcm says tomorrow. Its very disheartening.
Welcome Kristy! I'm so sorry for your loss. You couldn't have a found a nicer bunch of ladies to share the journey with. Everyone here is just so wonderful. BTW, I had a little look at your website...it's a very touching tribute to your little girl
Moglie, I'm sorry to hear you got a BFN. Your symptoms still sound promising to me! I got a BFN before a BFP so here's hoping it was just a little early. Remember that it ain't over until the fat lady sings!
Lisa, keep up that BDing! You're bound to catch the egg this month with all that action! LOL How are you feeling after Saturday, hon? I hope things are a little easier for you now.
Sarah, how are you going? I think it's great that you're so positive about this month. And just because it's your first month of really trying, doesn't mean it won't happen straight away! I know what you mean about not wanting to be too impatient though. I was hoping that I'd be one of the lucky ones to fall pg within a few weeks of the D&C but alas, it wasn't to be. My allergy isn't to food, it's a reaction to chemicals. I was cleaning the bathroom with Nifty or something similar a few months ago and I got the same reaction Oh well, any excuse to get out of cleaning! LOL
Michelle, good luck with catching that egg! YAY for O pains too! The cycle I conceived is when I had very strong O pains so I think it's a very good sign for you.
Keen, how are you going honey? Yeah I'm really over the bleeding. It's been 21 days since the D&C and it's still going! Oh well, I just figure that my body is doing a really good job of cleaning itself out in preparation for the next bubba
Bel - maybe you should start using natural cleaning products like vinegar, baking soda and lemon? I use alot of natural things around the house where I can. I hope the bleeding settles soon love. Maybe ask your dr if your concerned, as we are all different its hard to gauge it against other people's experiences.
Sarah - ohhh I didnt realise you were officially trying! Well then wishing you a BIG FAT POSITIVE soon!!
Moglie - oh hun, sorry you got the bfn, but it could still be early. If no af, then try again in a couple of days. Still keeping my fingers crossed for you sweety.
Where is everyone else today??? HELLOOOOOO......... hehehehe
Thanks Lisa, I still no sign of AF so my fingers, toes and everything is staying crossed. I think still having the hot flushes could be a good sign, but have to wait and see.
What do you use the vinegar, baking soda & lemons for cleaning? Probably not really part of this thread but I am curious because I am changing my cleaning products, detergents, powders etc to ones that are less toxic and contain less chemicals because I know they're not exactly friendly to humans or the environment and I wouldn't want to put what we use in contact with anything that has been sprayed, washed etc with chemicals.
Moglie...Its still good that you have no af signs .... fingers crossed!
Some basic tips....
To clean glass etc - mix 1 part vinegar with 1 part water (I put in a spray bottle) and use like you would use spray n wipe.
To clean stove tops etc you can use some baking soda mix with lemon juice and scrub, then wipe with a damp clean sponge. You can do this for the inside of your fridge too.
For microwaves - cut half a lemon, place in a bowl with water and zap for 1 min in the microwave, then wipe down with clean damp cloth. It removes all food splatter and leaves microwave smelling fresh.
