ALL PREGNANCY TICKERS NEED TO BE DISABLED BEFORE POSTING IN THIS THREAD. THIS IS OUT OF RESPECT TO THOSE THAT HAVE SAID GOODBYE - THERE ARE NO EXCEPTIONS TO THIS RULE AND WE EXPECT YOU WILL HONOUR THIS SIMPLE COURTESY.
Glad the move went well Shortcake. We have less than two weeks - bet this TWW will go much quicker than the other kind!!!
It's our small boy's 2nd birthday today. Bit of a family party yesterday...but he's sick again so that meant he didn't have as good a time as he might have.
I truly wish you will soon all know the joy of your own child's party. Whilst I'm not a praying kind of person, I'm trying very hard to 'put it out to the universe' that we all soon have BFPs and brand new small people.
Jen ~ this might be the wrong context, but going back a couple of months (and before I think...) there was a list of things you would do to demonstrate an 'addiction' to BB. At our small boy's party yesterday it both struck me how lucky I am and how I am starting to relax more and more about 'needing' a baby. That's the huge impact BB is having for me!
Yesterday thinking of you all here online I had cause to pause and be thankful for what DH and I have. I hope this ramble makes some kind of sense...apologies if it doesn't!
Welcome to all the new people who have found this wonderful supportive thread. I hope your journeys here are short.
Hey ladies I am new to this thread as I am going to begin charting my cycles (never done this before) in the hopes to TTC in the next few months. I had an ectopic in February and am just giving myself the time recommended after receiving methotrexate. So I hope this is an appropriate place for me as mentally I am gearing up to TTC conceive again. I hope all of you have a very good month full of lots of BFP!!!!
Ladies I just need to remind you all - please don't make posts for the sake of posting in a new thread. We moderate these threads on a voluntary basis and it makes more work for us - and is also not what the threads are here for. They are here to support each other and share in this journey. Multiple posts after the other just to spread baby dust are not okay. Please respect this and the time and effort that it requires us to spend checking threads. Each time a post is made this thread is moderated. Make your posts about the support and friendship that they are designed for. Thankyou for your understanding. Flowerchild
and thank you Sally... we may have to give it a break this month with the testing we are going to get done.. but maybe not. guess I will have to wait and see what the specialist says. They are sending out an information pack and i have to call when i receive it for further info. I have only recently been told that if you bd every 2nd day you will have a better quality of sperm, but the quantity will be less. so you will have less of them with each ejaculation but the mobility of them will be greater. So I guess that is a good way to do it. best of luck.
Meh - happy birthday to your little man. I understand what it is you are trying to say. I too am greatful for my 9yo son.
Im a bit disappointed to read above that tickers from our pregnant friends have to be disabled to post in this thread. I don't know about anyone else but it gives me a little bit of hope to see them ticking along at the bottom of some of the posts. I guess I will have to lurk in the pregnancy after m/c section to find that little bit of hope
Boble- Sorry to hear that RB arrived. She arrived for me yesterday too. Looks like we are cycle buddies this month! Hopefully next month we will be Belly Buddies!?!
meh- Our last 2 weeks in the old house went quickly. I hope your move goes smoothly and I hope the birthday party went well.
teme- Welcome. I'm sorry to hear of your loss. Please feel free to ask any questions on your TTC journey. I pray that it is a short one for you.
Sally-I was told from my DR that its best to DTD every day or every other day depending on your DH sperm count. We were told we could do it several times a day and it would be fine for us. HTH.
mel- When are you going for your first scan?
cherished-I'm glad you had a good time camping. I'm praying you get your BFP this month from all that practice!
WELCOME! To all the newbies. I'm very sorry for all your losses. You have found the most wonderful women in the whole world who truly understand you.
AFM- RB is here is full swing. I really thought last month would be it for us! DH and I decided last night that we are going to try this month on our own yet and if nothing happens talk to the DR about trying clomid. Does anyone know what the success rate is for clomid? And if it does sometimes make it harder to conceive?
I hate Mondays! Especially Mondays! I'm also really bad with change... I've PM'd you 3 times, Flowerchild... sorry, just had to get it out!
I've only got a few minutes, I have to run to the grocery store before DS's lunch, as I had nothing to pack him! So this will be brief, but I'll be back later for more!
charm--Hope the Preseed works and gets the job done!
boble--You're so sweet to offer that deal, unfortunately and this is going to sound very "Deal or No Deal"-ish, but.... NO DEAL! More spotting today, cramps, and major pms... RB will be here today full charge no matter what... Big *hugs* cycle bud, looks like we're just a couple days apart (again!)
sally-- Thanks, you did it! Great job! Woo-hoo for the +OPK, as well! Saying prayers for your Pearl! Hey, just want to add that you should also chart the -OPK's, as well! Then about the BD question, I've read that if there's no issues with DH's swimmers, then there's no reason why you can't BD everyday. The more opportunity the better, I say! If there are issues with sperm function or supply, tho, then I understand the need to have a day or two in-between for those little to restock!
Sorry, I know that was brief, but I'll be back later for the rest! Gotta go!
Jen I can see you are spotting God dam RB! I mustn't have stalked your chart last night in the 10 mins I had to go through all those post I missed!
Sally I think many dr's recommend bd'ing every 2nd day but as Shortcake and Jen said everyday is fine if dh's swimmers don't have a supply problem. The cycle we got pg we had a bd'ing marathon! But we did have a day break (which happened to be the day before the +OPK) This cycle we are going to bd the day we get the +OPK and the day after (which seem to be the W & EW CM days) and try to leave a couple of days break before then. I am excited for you honey I hope you get your BFP. Whilst the tww can drive you insane it is still so exciting... Like waiting for the best present in the world!
I'm just wondering if our pg friends are easily able to disable their tickers (in their signature or something)??? It would be horrible if we never hear from them again... Girls if you are lerking please drop in and say hello or can you do a group pm to us if you add us as your friends (if we're not already your friend) to let us know how you are going? Or are pm's moderated also? I'm still not completely sure of all the bb functions!
