I am not, alas, the universe is against me on that one as the husband is terribly sick and also not here till Wednesday.

I am going to assume you are talking about herbal tea, lol. Sorry you are still feeling sick . Did you have this much ms with your dd's?

oh oceane, sick and out of town? If only the planets would align in our favor just once .

I had a mild case of HG with my last pregnancy and somewhat with the first as well. With #1 I was sick until about 20 weeks, then sick again at 36 weeks until delivery. With #2 it was about 25 weeks, and more severe, I was on fluids several times. This one is by far the worst. It started earlier (5 weeks vs closer to 8 with the others), I'm way sicker, and it appears to be lasting longer as well

Maybe this baby will also be the best behaved or best sleeper too! There should definately be a reward for all the puking. Hugs, I hope you feel better soon.

[oceane]

sorry talula, what a horrible way to spend your pregnance. "endure" is the word here.


I had a 0.1 higher temp for the last 2 days, which is a pattern I had last cycle, too. if this a particularly weak type of ovulation?? I know I have to wait if cm dries up to give me my answer but some wondering needs to take place right now.


snow~pea, hi!

hey everyone!

[Jelinifer]

Hey there! I haven't been around much lately, only because I'm waiting to O.

[Snow~Pea]

oceane you're right, it is similar to your last cycle's O. I'm not sure what it means to have such a weak temp spike. I hope its not O yet though, because didn't you say your dh was gone til today? Tell that eggy to stay put for a couple more hours!

I forgot to temp this morning, so nothing to report. cp did seem more fertile yesterday though. I'll have to wait and see what it does today. Guess we are both in the have-no-idea-what-is-going-on phase of our cycles. Hopefully we'll both have some answers by this weekend.


Hey Jen, where are you at with your cycle?

[Talula Fairie]

Well at least I am not sick ALL the time like some women. And Zofran is a gift from the heavens, srsly.

[Jelinifer]

I'm at CD12.... starting to get some good ewcm and my cervix is starting to really soften up. I'm hoping my peak day is either tomorrow or Sat. because I'll be away from dh tonight and Friday night!!!

[oceane]

this timing thing is difficult, Jen

snow, he left Tuesday morning so Monday was still busy. I did have some more cm today so I'm probably still pre-o.

[Jelinifer]

Oceane~ You're telling me!!! Our nights away from each other were anticipated so we have done alot of *um* insurance bd-ing the past few days to keep ourselves covered just in case.

[Snow~Pea]

: for nice big fertile eggies for both of you!

[oceane]

Jen, exactly, who cares about romance, it's all about what you have to do

that said, ff has decided on an o date for me so I'll take it. I think timing went very well. I'll try not to think about it for the next 10 days, but of course I will do so all the time. including updating a potential names list and checking in here often

[Jelinifer]

Well ladies.... onto the 2ww for me Lets hope we caught that eggie!!! :

[veganmama719]

Hi ladies, I got back from my business trip to Toronto last night.

DS developed an abscess while I was gone after having his first cavity filled a few weeks ago. They pulled the tooth, a molar while I was flying home yesterday afternoon. Poor little man.

I was the only woman (out of 24) on my trip, as usual. And waddling with the back pain this LO has me in. Such fun! However, I think he turned head down while I was away, he had been stubbornly transverse. I am 30 weeks tomorrow.

DS did not ask to nurse last night and of course, he missed 4 night while I was away. So hopefully that is it and he has weaned himself. Not that nursing him once a day was too much of a burden but I wouldn't mind a break for 2 months before the new baby comes. And he is 5,

Hope everyone is extra fertile this month, I think May is a good month to conceive!

[Snow~Pea]

Yay for ovulating oceane and Jen :! Hopefully I will be joining you soon in the 2ww.


Welcome back VM! Your poor son, I'm sure he was glad to have you back. Has your back pain calmed down at all since you started seeing the chiro?

[Jelinifer]

Snow~Pea: We'll be waiting for you on the other side!!!

[becksteracious]

Hi! I'm usually a lurker, but I was so excited to find this thread! My husband and I started TTC last cycle. We've been married almost four years. He's not vegan (maybe someday!), but I've been vegan for two and a half years. No one else knows we're TTC, so it's nice to have online support!

[cinnamongrl]

Good luck on the two week torture, i mean, wait...
Go little eggies, GO!

Hello becksteracious! To tell or not to tell the world... If you don't tell people, you'll get "OH! A surprise baby!" or "I didn't even know you were trying!" & if you tell people you are ttc, then you get "Any news yet?" over and over again....always full of opinions, people are... Any how! Good luck!!


And good luck everyone! VM is right, May is a good month to conceive!!

[oceane]

welcome becksteracious! how do you guys prepare meals at home? does your husband eat "your" food out of courtesy or do you guys prepare separate meals? just wondering.
this thread is full of supportive ladies :

cinnamon, how are you feeling?

vm, the joys of being a "pioneer" woman in a male-dominated field, huh? I wonder why established gender roles in careers change so slowly. sorry your back is still hurting
