Re: TTC Tuesday
How many weeks: 22 weeks, 5 days
How are you feeling? Feeling ok, fighting a cold but otherwise good
Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? Someday I might have a bump...
How many weeks: 4 wks
How are you feeling? Nauseous, but I have lots of snacks at my desk now and that helps.
Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? I love H. When I wasn't feeling good yesterday he kept texting me I was going great. And this morning he texted Morning, how are you feeling mama? It made me feel special. Part of me thought he might be "been there done that" since he already has 2 kids, but he's awesome.
TTCers:
Hey guys! sorry i've been MIA....Just went back to work yesterday after the longest winter vacation from school!!! Hope everyone's holidays were super fun!!!
Cycle/Month:6! can't belive it, I just wrote 5, then had to re count and was shocked it's January... bummer.
CD/DPO:15
W2O or 2WW? W2O
Testing plans: 25th/26th...around there probably
Chart stalks/rants/Thoughts: I stopped charting, and we're just having a lot of sex. haha I really wanted a spring/summer baby due to scheduling (I'm a teacher) and now that that's not happening, I'm just going to see what happens and not be too intense about it...
Cycle/Month: Cycle 2/ Month 11
CD/DPO: CD50
W2O or 2WW? W2O
Testing plans: Taking OPKs for now. I go in for blood work tomorrow.
Chart stalks/rants/Thoughts: Taking my last Follistim injection tonight. The first time was horrible, not because of the pain, but because of my own fear. It literally took me 10 minutes after laying down for H to calm me down enough and stop moving so he could stick me. After all the fuss, I barely felt it. lol! I still get a little freaked out before each shot - I just HATE needles. Not looking forward to the blood draw tomorrow. :-S
CD/DPO: 7
W2O or 2WW? W2O
Testing plans: probably start OPKs next wk. I only have 5 left of my wondfos so hopefully I catch my surge.
Chart stalks/rants/Thoughts: I'm bummed its taking so long and seriously every person gives the "when you stop trying it will happen" advice. Especially with New Years and people saying, well hopefully you'll have a 2014 baby! I'm all jaded thinking, well that means it has to happen by March.....
I'm also having a hard time balancing being proactive with charting and keeping the whole baby making thing romantic and spontaneous. H told me that he feels like it isn't really special. He wants to just HIO on cd 12,14,16. In my 3 months of full charting I've O'd days 11, 17, 20. I have a hard time backing off charting completely, but I agree planning sex feels strained. I need a hobby!!!
How many weeks: 18w3d
How are you feeling? Sore. It's really cold here and all my joints ache.
Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? None this week. Looks the same as last week.
Cycle/Month: 1/1
Chart stalks/rants/Thoughts: We are officially trying, however we are going to try not charting first. As I see PPs we want to avoid having planned sex for now. If we have no luck by May then we'll start charting. We aren't in a hurry, for now. I think I'm 4DPO based solely on CM, but not sure. I guess we will see what happens in 2 weeks.
Cycle/Month: 10
CD/DPO: 20 / 4dpo
W2O or 2WW? 2WW
Testing plans: none
Chart stalks/rants/Thoughts: FF changed its mind from last week and now I O'd on day 16 previously it said day 8. I figured it would change and it puts it on track for AF to arrive around day 34 like usual.
How many weeks: 9 weeks
How are you feeling? My nausea has gotten better. It comes and goes during the day, but not as strong. It gets worse after dinner. As long I am ok at work, I'm fine with it. I've been exhausted. I can't wait to get home every day, just to sit down.
Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? No bump, a little bloat and my hips have started to spread. I bought a B-band at Target this weekend since I hadn't worn anything but sweatpants while I was on vacation. My work pants are the most comfy things ever! I highly recommend this band before making the full maternity pants switch.
ETA- I put the incorrect number for how far along I am.
How many weeks: 13 weeks tomorrow!!! Officially out of the 1st trimester!!!
How are you feeling? Weekend was very tough! I thought nausea had calmed down but it came back like crazy all weekend. I barely ate and went from couch to bed all weekend. For the past few days I have actually ate 3 small meals plus small snacks each day!! Woohoo! I feel great and people ate work even noticed I looked better! Here's to hoping its uphill for now!
Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? No bump just yet.
How many weeks: 34w2d
How are you feeling? Big, swollen
Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? My fingers are too puffy for my rings :-(. They visibly look okay but I was fearing having to have them cut off if my swelling suddenly got worse! I'm really only up 20 pounds, so I have done very well. It should come off pretty easy between delivering and breastfeeding. I have an ultrasound today. We cannot wait to see our little boy!
How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? 6 months today (im a day late posting i had to get to a comp), where did the time go? i know i say this all the time, but time really does fly!
How do you feel? great!
Any Milestones this week? we started green beans, she rolled over from back to front last week and has turned pro, yesterday she collapsed the activity mat on herself, she is turning into a wiggle worm, we are working on sitting up all on her own, she is going to be crawling before i know it
Rants/Thoughts/Baby pics?nothing here....i will take her 6 month pics later and hopefully update my siggy this weekend=)
newly pregnant ladies, i second the bella band, and also the hair band trick works wonders on jeans towards the end of the day when you are bloated and need to unbutton. Jolly ranchers for nausea=)
