Happy Tuesday!

I hope everyone has a good rest of the week! I'm gearing up for 2 more interviews. It's nerve-racking but it does keep the baby making/Googling/symptom spotting obsession to a minimum.

Meghan - Yasssss! I love bread too! I'm all about the bread basket in restaurants. I love my potatoes too.

I had negative OPKs yesterday and today so I could be 1dpo. My temps are generally in the 97.5ish range and then shoot up to 98.something after O. Monday was 97.16 and today was 97.72. Hmmm...maybe it will be a steady climb or maybe my body faked me out and I will O around Thursday as estimated. Only time will tell.

Right now test date planned for 9/17

Hi everyone,
Blizzards of to all of you busy , Hope you all catch that egg!!! Remember to bd for three days after a positive opk to make sure you are covering all your bases. Hoping to get a bunch of this month
I'm on a health kick during the week (not so strict at the weekend), eating salad with raw baby spinach through it to keep my iron up. My weakness is pasta and cola, find it hard to stay drinking water but I need to get a bit healthier, looking some lbs would also be great

Good luck this cycle ladies

Hello im Naomi im 41 currently on 2dpo I suffered a miscarriage july 9,2016 after seeing the heartbeat at 7 weeks. We did get pregnant right away with that baby I just had my first normal cycle on August 24 so im hoping for a bfp in 2 weeks. Babydust to you all

Welcome Naomi. Im sorry about your loss, i know how you feel. I went thru a mc in June of this year too:( i hope you get pregnant again soon.im waiting this month too.

Naomi. Welcome. Sorry for your loss, keeping fingers crossed you get your bfp this month Keep us updated with any promising symptoms.

Miracle. Keeping fingers crossed for you this month

Hey ladies...just reporting on my latest procedures at the reproductive doctors..i did a glucose test this morn..had to drink some sweet stuff and they took blood before the sweet stuff and then 2 hours after....i am about to do a HSG test where they shoot dye up there and see if there is blockage or anything..i think they took at least a gallon of blood today..lol

How are ypu ladies today? Any updates?

hello Naomi and everyone!

3dpo and wishing I could sleep the 2ww away.

Shanta- those glucose tests are rough! I remember after the 3 hour fasting test having to go sit in the hospital cafeteria because I got a bit dizzy.. and the blood... all the blood they drew..

Yesterday, My 9yo daughter had her 3rd horseback riding lesson. There was a pregnant mare there, so I gave her an extra rub for baby luck and fed her a carrot... lol.. couldnt hurt!

Naomi, Miracle- sorry for your losses. I know how it feels.

I'm just killing time till testing date... I am sure I will start testing early... going to try and wait for at least 10dpo. Not feeling anything yet. But, I probably wouldnt. its early. I'm anxious.

Been staying up late watching the 'Harley and the Davidsons' 3 day special with my DP. so far so good!

Kerzie good for you. Exercise is making me feel so much better. 2 weeks ago I could barely do anything without huffing and puffing. I started out doing 10 step ups and for 2 days it hurt to sit down. Today I did 70 and I can jog 3 miles. Little pat on the back for myself.
Of course I'm out this month. We have not bd in 39 days. AF due on Sunday. I did not tell him when I ovulated this month. I wanted him to want me and not do it just to get me pregnant. He knows how I feel and no need to say anything more. I've pretty much given up. It is however very nice seeing that scale come down. And I would like to add that drinking so much water, eating more healthy food and exercise my pms symptoms have so far been zero. I have also been continuing with my prenatals and maca. I'll continue to check in once in awhile to see how everyone is doing. I spoke to Fruitloops yesterday and she and baby are doing great, lots of nausea. Good luck to everyone this cycle.

Hello ladies,

I see we have some newbies. Welcome Meghan and Naomi!! Wishing you a bfp really soon. Newbies usually get pregnant quickly in our forum.

Kerzie I have tried the ionic foot bath a few times. There isn't much of that being offered where we live now, which sucks. But I have been getting more massages lately. You asked me over a week ago about the kind of job I am looking for and I forgot to answer before I went all MIA. I am not in a particular field. I have a business degree but I have done a little bit of everything. Just praying for something I enjoy with good pay.

Ani great to hear that you and baby are doing so well!

Shanta can't wait to hear about your HSG and other tests. I hope it is all healthy news and your bfp is right around the corner.

Cd9 and I had weird ovary pinching yesterday. Not doing opks this month. Just going to bd when I am in the mood which currently is everyday...hehehe. I am so loving not having a child in the house although dd comes home every weekend. According to my cycle calendar I should O this weekend.

Wishing everyone joy, peace and bfps!!

Shanta. Hope your tests all have good results Thanks for keeping us in the loop.

Meg. If it works we will all be chasing pregnant animals to rub their bellies What a strange sight that would be! As for testing we all cave in and test early sometimes, it's hard to wait.

Chicks. I'm so impressed by your commitment. I will be over the moon if my scale comes down a bit. Have you been out with your friends yet and left dh home with the kids? Will do him good to miss you, you deserve to be cherished!!! Say hi to friutloops, glad they are both well and hope the sickness lets up soon for her x

39. Once my hormones are balanced again I'm planning on going the relaxed route. I know I ovulate every month and can feel the temp change and get sore boobs to let me know it's by with, I'm tired of counting down the days. It must be like being young all over again having the house and time to whenever the mood takes, your like a Duracell bunny at the moment Think I need an upgrade in batteries.
