Your kid has to be like 3 by now and we haven't seen a picture since she was 1.  What gives?  I demand pictures.

    Did you miss my TTC announcement?   You KNOW I recently had marriage problems.   WHy aren't you calling me out for this?

    FFS, when I saw this heading I FISTPUMPED. 

    lollylolzzz

    I fail as a mom.   I'll try at naptime tomorrow to download some stuff.   Far cry from the days when you guys begged me to stop talking about my kid.

  • I've decided that you and your H are one of those couples who fight/make-up/fight/make-up and love it.  Does that help?

    I'm also TTC.  Maybe we'll talk about out skinny legs togethah.

  • Oh god. I'm going to be the only one left...

    Husbands should be like Kleenex: Soft, strong, and disposable.
  • It does help.

    Lila will be 2 next month.   I'll see if I can get her counting on video.  I'm pretty sure no one but me understands her when she talks.  I'm going to start referring to ehr as Polly, she repeats everything whether she knows what it means or not.

    I don't even think I've posted anything recent of ehr on Facebook.

    I promise to still hate baby- and kid-related posts, especially those involving diapers and boobs.  Does that help?

    Please don't go all "mommy militia" on me. That's all I ask.

  • The mommy militia isn't moms who hate other moms?
    image
  • Hmm. Maybe I mean "militant mommy".

  • One of us!  One of us!

    As an aside, my bff has been 'ttc' for a few months now and is all concerned about potential fertility issues and has made an appt to discuss fertility problems with her doctor because she hasn't gotten pregnant yet.  I asked her how seriously they were trying and she said that they have sex a few times a month, and not often when she's most likely ovulating.  My suggestion - maybe you should try to fix that before jumping to plan z?

  • We really are a dying breed.....

    When TTC do most people start off by not using birth control then if there is still nothing being more proactive with charting and all that? Or when I am ready should I just start off right away with charting? We are a good year away but this intrigues me. I cannot imagine going to a fetility specialist after trying half assed after only a few months.

  • I think it depends on your personality.  I'm not pro-active, I'd go so far as to say I'm lazy and a procrastinator.   really, we probably  should have done it last night but I fell asleep on the couch instead.

  • When we start trying (I suggested starting in January to Mr. Spiderman and he said no way, so I have no idea when), I fully intend to just try the Hump And Hope For The Best option for a few months.  If that doesn't work, then I'll start charting.  Initially I was going to chart just so I could get an idea of when to expect my period so I'd notice if one went missing, but I haven't bothered.  If my period starts to go on a wonky schedule, I'll start charting then.

  • Yea, I think I will be a little lazy at first but then chart after a few months. I dread going back to the days when I have no idea when my period will be coming.
  • Both times we decided to just have a lot of sex and see what happened. I didn't have any interest in charting unless I needed to. I'm lazy.

    image

  • I may be stupid, but charting is hard.
    image
  • Is it, Fallin?  I was hoping that putting my daily temp into fertility friend or someplace like that would do all the work for me.  Is this not true?
    image
    "That chick wins at Penises, for sure." -- Fenton
  • The problem is that the temp only tells you you ovulated after you ovulate.  To figure out when you are fertile (about to ovulate), you need to track your CM.  I find it hard 1) to remember to check and 2) to figure out what is creamy v. wet v. egg white (gross).  Add in leftover semen from lots of sex and I get lost.

  • This is the closest thing to TMI I've ever seen from you, Fallin.

    Side-story: My ex-boyfriend recently knocked up his girlfriend, on purpose.   he was giving tips to another male friend of mine who's considering TTC and told him to have lots of sex during the 8 days of ovulation.  That was it.

    8 days.   Yup.

    I was just about to post that. Never thought I'd hear Fallin talk about her CM.

    And talking about semen in your vagina.

  • it was the part about getting lost in leftover semen that really got me.

    image
  • Hey you guys!  Fallin has sex!
    image
  • I guess I never imagined you would be willing to check your CM.  Ever.
    image
    "That chick wins at Penises, for sure." -- Fenton
  • It's not that you have sex. It was the description of semen coupled with the fact that you stated yourself you wouldn't talk about boobs or poop. I guess semen doesn't qualify as TMI.
