Bold, awww thanks for your encouraging words. I know it will happen, it's all in GOD'S plan I just have to keep the faith. This month is definitely a break month. I just started OPKS though just to see how I do on my own, I don't have a problem ovulating however I was taking soy to have a healthier better eggs (possibly) even 2 eggs lol. So my plan is opks, perhaps some preseed here and there and baby dancing. I haven't been paying attention to my cycle at all so as of this point I'm not even sure on what CD number I'm even on lol. I'll have to stalk the calendar once I post this message to check. I think it's coming close to that time though. I baby danced today (tmi) I was wetter than usual. It actually felt like I did use preseed but I didn't. Perhaps that may be a good sign lol. Now that I'm not taking the soy I want to see when I O because I think the soy made me O a few days late around CD17 to CD19!! Which pushed my cycles to like 33 days instead of 29 days. I only have 32 to 33 day cycles once and awhile however the 3 months I've taken soy it was almost clock work. I do have to order more O tests and hpts from amazon. Now that I moved into my new house I can order the goodie packages TTC. I'm glad your not going to leave us here. Lol. Like I said don't forget about me. And make sure when you have your appt update us if you can.

Bumpin, how are you feeling? How's everything going with your pregnancy? Times seems to be flying since your about to find out the sex already. I can't wait until you find ouy, I hope you share your exciting news with all of us. With both you and bold being preggo now I wanna start up TTCING heavy again lol. To bad it's to late for me to take soy lol. But you never know usually miracles happen on breaks. And I'm right along with you about wanting to find out the sex of the baby. Since I already have one though I always said I would wait to find out just like @bold however I know I wouldn't be able to cause it would eat me alive as well. Lol

AfM, everything I have already mentioned above. Lol. I guess I'm in for the night in actually going to stalk the calendar to see excatly where in my cycle I am because as of right now I'm clueless. I did "start" to take a OPK since yesterday and it was negative, the time is getting close, I didn't take one today, I'm actually in the bath tub right now however maybe in an hour I'll take my 2nd OPK of this cycle and see if there is any darkening meaning getting closer to that LH surge. Anyways yall ladies have a good day/night. I'll check in tomorrow. Xoxoxo

Oh yeah I forgot to add @bold.... I haven't had my tube checked in awhile. Last time I had a HSG was in year 2004 or 2005 a year or so after my daughter was born which me and my EX had testing done and it cane back with my EX having low sperm count however all my tests came back clear. So that test was about 10 years ago and now I'm with my current fiance so I never was RE tested and he wasn't tested at all.

Hi there, ladies! I know I've been MIA for a couple of months, but since DH deployed to Korea I haven't been able to travel to TTC in my mind! I had the Mirena placed first week in October, and it's been WONDERFUL!! No more violent mood swings! I talked to DH the other day and told him how well I'm doing on it, and he said he wants it gone before he gets home. It's hilarious; I was so focused on TTC before he left, and now that he's so far away he's got the baby bug SO BADLY! I was wanting to order my Femara online and possibly order the trigger too, but Idk even which sites to go to.

Congrats B&B and Bumpin! I've missed a lot, I guess!

2frsty: HEY!!! :) It is so good to hear from you!! I am glad that you are doing good & Thanks on the congrats! I am 10 1/2 weeks now. When does DH return? Have you been keeping yourself occupied?

Jessica: I am feeling better than I have been! I have had this weird discharge after BD that looks a lot like a mucus plug (brown tinged and all) but goes away pretty quickly. This happened at 7 weeks too after BD. I am just ready for my appointment Thursday so I will get some reassurance!

FX that this is your month!!

I've been OOOBER busy since DH left. He's slotted to return around June 22nd or so. Our DS has become a full blown toddler! Walking, running, destroying the house, and growing like a weed! He was 15 months old on the 4th of December, and weighs in at a whopping 30.4 pounds, standing 2'9" tall ... he's currently wearing size 2T clothes! He's been fighting illness this cold and flu season. He came down with Herpangina (blisters in his throat) and was sick for his birthday (y'all probably remember that) and then Halloween night (after trick-or-treating) he came down with a rotten cold. He had just gotten better and was doing really well, when we went to DH's company Thanksgiving party on the 13th of Nov. 2 days later (2 days before we were leaving for IL, 800 miles away) he came up with a 104 fever. Urgent Care said his flu swab was negative so they gave us antibiotics and said it was probably a sinus infection. We went ahead and left (I drove all the way with a sick baby by myself) and when he just kept getting worse, I took him to the walk-in clinic in IL. They swabbed him; it wasn't a sinus infection ... he has RSV! I was furious at the Urgent Care here in TX! I would've never left if I'd known he was so sick! He started getting better and better, and halfway through the trip I came up with a sore throat and a weird fever. It went away, but a couple of days later I started getting blisters on my feet. We left the next day to avoid the icy weather coming up north. John started running a fever the next day. His appetite started getting worse, so we went to the Dr. Turns out that while we were on vacation, we both got Hand Foot and Mouth Disease! So that's how my Thanksgiving holiday went! We're both finally healthy and happy and HOME! How was everyone's holiday???

hey ladies,

Apologies for being off the radar for while lol Had so much going on its been whirlwind!

Bumpin: how you feeling hun? hope today goes all ok which im sure it will :) let us know whats said cause we are super nosey haha!

Jessica: how are you feeling now? im not 100%sure what stage your at with everything as some of my posts have been missing I think :( hope all ok.

2frsty: its typical isn't it...you plan for lovely event and then things go belly up!?...hope you and our son are ok now tho. the break from TTC will do you good....it wlll prepare your body for when your partner comes back hehe for more baby dancing!

AFM: I am now 7weeks and 4 days (not that im counting or anything! lol) and have not been feeling great like I did with DD. I have had bad nausea altho not been sick, Im knackered, cant sleep for certain amount of time in any position, too much milk in my tea makes me feel sick but I can drink glasses of the stuff lol! me and hubby went to clinic to see our baby for the first time and it was amazing....we saw its heartbeat and it was strong even this early. we not telling anyone tho til after 12 weeks scan which will be January I believe but we think our due date is approx. 2nd august 2015 which is around what we wanted so happy days! sadly my work let me go 3 weeks ago due to the woman I was covering for on maternity coming back month early in the new year! so im pregnant and jobless but im not letting it get to me I am just trying to find something else that will tide us over til baby comes then ill get SMA anyway :) xxxx

2frsty: WOW girl!! Sorry to hear that everyone has been so ill, but glad you all are feeling better! I hope that June 22nd comes fast for you and little man. Our Thanksgiving was ok. We made 3 different trips and was late for 2 of them bc they all wanted to do it at the same time bc of black friday shopping... I didn't dare fight the crowds, I kept my butt home! Will your DH be able to come home for Christmas? I sure hope that he will!

B&B: I have been wondering if you gave up on us, lol! My appointment was boring as ever, just a pap smear.. He said he doesn't check for HB unitl 15w with the doppler. My next appointment is Jan. 8th, and I will be 14w 3d so hopefully I will be close enough to 15w that he will at least try, it is KILLING me waiting. I am making my gender scan appointment between Jan 19-23 and I will be in my 16th week! I am so ready to find out!!

Oh the nausea, I am still having it but not as bad or as often. I hope you feel better soon, if not ask about Zofran (it works wonders). I am glad that you guys got to see the HB! It is amazing isn't it? I wish they did 12w scans at my OB, but they don't. I have to pay for the gender scan bc my insurance won't cover it, then I will get another one at 20w. Seems forever away!

Sorry about the job! At least it will give you opportunity to enjoy this pregnancy and not have to deal with work stress. I know it is terrible to lose your job, just trying to find a silver lining here. I am thankful that I have an office job and am the only one in my office, so that I can still enjoy my pregnancy.

Jess & usckitty: Where the heck are you, girls?

AFM: 11w 4d today! I still have 20 days left until my next appointment.. BOO.. At least with Christmas coming next week and having 6 days off of work, it should go by faster! At least, I hope so anyway. I am excited about being able spend some time with my man girl DD! DH only gets off on Christmas Day.. It should be illegal to have to work on Christmas Eve! I guess I am lucky to at least be able to spend Christmas Day with him.

Hello ladies, how's everything going. Sorry I've been MIA for awhile. I can't wait until the holidays are over because it's been so busy with all this shopping and wrapping up gifts.

AfM, I'm on cd28. So I have a few more days to expect AF. I did test yesterday for some odd reason I really don't know why because I'm not expecting much this month. Here's some new news though. I've purchased a EPT at home fertility kit to test me and my DF. I did check DF sperm count and the test came back negative meaning he has (under 20 million) swimmers. I can't take my test yet which tests the egg reservoirs until cd3. It will test my FSH level. If these tests are accurate then I'm finally slowly getting answers. I haven't gone to an actual specialist due to lack of insurance so my DF hasn't had an actual SA. I'm curious to know the numbers now though. Anyways the game plan is after doing research. I ordered DF some fertilaid for men, mobility booster supplements and count boost supplements at least for the 1st month to get going then I ordered a extra bottle of just fertilaid for him to take the 2nd month. From the results I have read people have success after the 1st month or 2 tops. So I'm hoping this is my lucky break FINALLY. I also ordered soft cups, more preseed and wondfo combo pack (50 O tests/20 HPTs) so I'm ready plus I have plenty of soy supplements for myself. Sorry for this post being so long but this is my current game plan. I'm already ready to move on with my next cycle already even my DF can't wait until he starts these supplements. He's actually excited because of all the reviews I've been reading him. In about 2 months I'll retest with the at home sperm count test to see if we get a positive because like I told him he could of had 18 million but it would have came back negative ANYTHING under 20 mill.

Hey there, ladies! Things have been so bonkers here with Mom being sick over and over again, but at least DS and I are finally healthy! I'm so excited that everyone is doing so well, and that Ms Jessica is getting her answers. DH and I are finally a few days past our 6 months left mark! A third of the way there! June 22nd can't come quick enough!

Hey ladies!

How is everyone??

Bumpin: your bout 13 weeks ish now aren't you?? I have been trying to keep up but have struggled.....is baba treating you well? xx

Apologies to all you ladies for not being personal with this post.

AFM: Im still out of work altho looking for something to keep me going til baby comes. I am now 10 wks and waiting for our next scan appt. I have already started talking to it and have couple of apps that remind me of whats going on. I am more cautious with this one that what I was with dd#1! I am watching more what I drink, eat etc. im still getting nausea but not as bad but my tired ness is hitting quicker than I expected but going to bed as early as I can as often as I can.

I really hope all you ladies are well. I will try and keep in touch more often :) xx
