Re: Moleson
Feeding off you :-) lol
Oh and RESULTS PLEASE!!!
Well if Im not preggers this month I might have to try the pineapple thing!
With E I didn't get my BFP until I was a week late and I have always been clockwork. Remember it isn't over until AF shows!
It's so frustrating b/c I've had "symptoms" that woudl have led me to believe it will happen this month. But, yes, it's not over until AF shows up!
I have a friend who has 3 kids, and with 2 of them, she couldn't get a postive HPT until she was around 5 months!
Holy crap, 5 months! That's nuts.
H and I were laughing last night that it feels like I've been pg for months, and I'm not even officially 8 weeks. It's gonna be a long 9ish months! I almost envy folks like my CW who didn't find out she was pg with her first until she was 4 months. She was working on this huge project here, 80-hour weeks (which explained her fatigue) and didn't have any MS with him.
ok....WTF are you guys talking about? pineapples???
we're supposed to be trying to get preggers, but nothing happening. I suspect we're not trying hard enough.
What's this about pineapples???

I lurked on the Getting Pregnant board here on TN for a couple months. There are a few things they talk about a lot that I followed, including the ovulation predictor test (or OPKs) that I bought cheap cheap from Amazon, the super cheap pg tests (also from Amazon), and then the pineapple core. There's supposedly some enzyme that is found in pineapple core that helps your lining be thicker, or something like that. Apparently you can find it in pill form, but it's supposed to be more potent when it's fresh. Luckily I lurve pineapple, so I happily ate it.
There's also pomegranate juice, which is supposed to do something at some point in your cycle, but I didn't bother. And green tea helps increase your CM; you drink it pre-O. I added that in as well, but it was just a substitute for my regular black tea in the morning, so it wasn't any work, unlike the pineapple.
Sponge Bob lives in one under the sea!
That's cool! I temped one month just to see if I could see the clear ovulation, and then got lazy. But it is really sort of empowering to be able to look at your chart and see when you O.
The last two months I just did OPKs, and that worked for me since I'm a pretty consistent early O'er.
OOHHH....wow. So much I didn't know.
I want to start checking my temps but it seems gross.
I do have the ovulation test strips though. I think we are going to have to go see a doctor soon.
