Re: TTC Tuesday
CD/DPO: 2 dpo
W2O or 2WW? 2WW
Testing plans: none this time...I'm just going to wait and see what happens next month
Chart stalks/rants/Thoughts: I know a lot of pregnant people/new mothers and seeing all their Facebook pix makes me really want to get pregnant. This is our second month of trying so hopefully we won't have to wait too much longer.
How many weeks: 15! When did this happen?!
How are you feeling? Still have moments of nausea.
Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? Ugh why am I so sore?! My legs are restless at night, my back and hips kill me... I'm doing prenatal yoga tonight, once H hooks up the DVD player to the TV. I seriously need it.
How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? 8 months 2 weeks i think
How do you feel? good!
Any Milestones this week? i think she is finally going to get a tooth, and she had organic yogurt for the first time!
Rants/Thoughts/Baby pics? nothing to report
Pregnant Girls:
How many weeks: 33 weeks, 5 days - eek!
How are you feeling? Good, tired and starting to get a little sore.
Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? Prenatal chiropractic is my current favorite thing ever!
@mana8503 - I can't believe you are already 15 weeks!
W2O or 2WW? 2WW probably
Testing plans: Sunday is AF doesn't come.
Chart stalks/rants/Thoughts: I think I may have Oed late. Supposed to get AF this weekend if I just go off how long my cycle usually is. I just feel like it will happen this summer.
CD/DPO: 21/3 I think
W2O or 2WW? 2ww I think
Testing plans: none
Chart stalks/rants/Thoughts:I'm pretty sure I O'd on sat based on OPKs, weird cramping on my right side and a big temp spike on Sunday, but then the dog has messed with my temping by barking at coyotes in the morning so yesterday I jumped up before and got a weird low temp so I discarded it , and this morning's wasn't as high, but still over previous temps. I put in a dummy temp for tomorrow and get CHs that match but it irks me that my chart is so wacky at o time! But, we have great timing if I'm right, so that is good news.
I'm frustrated too because DH got really upset with me when I mentioned that we will probably be working on a 2015 baby since this cycle is Dec. he got mad that I think that far I'm advance (sorry I'm just aware of what EDD month it is) and figured it's better to be a little pessimistic than more sad when AF shows up. It's probably not a good thing though and it surprised me how upset DH got.
And good luck @islandmonkey8!!!!
How old are your LOs (Little Ones)?
6 weeks tomorrow:-)
How do you feel?
Good. Just had my six week check and I guess everything is good. DH will be happy to hear that, lol. I'm scared to have sex...
Any Milestones this week?
More smiles. I think we are in the middle of a growth spurt.

How are you feeling? So uncomfortable. My hips have started to seperate and I don't sleep anymore:(
Also now I feel like I get bigger by the second.
Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics?
So I woke up this morning and peed on a stick, don't now what possessed me to do it, I was going to wait until the weekend. Anyway, it was positive, I'm pregnant. I was so sure it was going to happen in May it actually threw me off my game this morning. Apparently I had the "M" right.
In regards to caffeine, I haven't given it up. Most research says up to two cups a day, about 200mg is OK. I usually have one cup in the morning, sometimes two depending on how I slept the night before. But, you should check with your doc. I'm so excited for you!
I cut back before the BFP to 1 cup. I still drink it when I'm feeling good, when my MS was raging it was a no go. I think slowly cutting back would be the way to go. I don't think baby is really pulling anything from you in the beginning.
@mbuckley85 Caleb is adorable!!!
@seipel12 Congrats!!!!!!!!!! How exciting!!!!! In regards to caffeine I stopped drinking it in the beginning because of the nausea but once that was gone I resumed to one cup a day. Ask your dr but that should be ok.
Pregnant Girls:
How many weeks: 24 weeks today!
How are you feeling? Excellent!!
Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? See below for bump pic!! My in-laws really pissed me off the other day because they are giving us a hard time about using daycare. They state he is too young to be in daycare. I get it's not what they did back in there day but please don't make me feel bad about having to do it. I asked them repeated to drop the subject and they wouldn't . If they bring it up again I will not be so polite!
I cut down to 4 oz of coffee a day with the first pregnancy. After the miscarriage, I didn't increase. With this pregnancy, I drank coffee until 6 or 7 weeks. When morning sickness set in, coffee really triggered it bad. I still enjoy the smell, but even thinking about drinking coffee turns my stomach.
I drink a small Arizone iced tea at lunch to get caffeine. Sometimes, I'll have a Pepsi at dinner. I Googled the amount of caffeine in those beverages and I am well below the 200 mg. I would just cut down to one cup, if possible, if I were you. I have a friend who went cold turkey, but spent an entire weekend in bed with a withdrawl headache.
