September Queer Conceptions - Ready to *FALL* in love w/ our future babes! - Page 2

[Lyndzies]

pleasantlyfurious - I think that happy and peaceful is exactly right. You shout it from the rooftops when you feel ready. Or when your belly gives you away.

Quiet and cautiously optimistic congrats to you!

[osker]

Can we be moved to waiting to know please?
We did two insems this week in our loft bedroom with my sister visiting... it was TRICKY to say the least!
Not too hopeful about it as the timing was probably a bit late? But oh well, we'll see how it goes.

Thanks!

So we're cautiously optimistic over here in our corner of the world.

Wow! That's very exciting. I hope you shout it from the rooftops soon

And congrats, KSDoulaMama!

[cejae]

Congratulations KSDoulaMama!!! I'm so happy for you!!

Pleasantlyfurious, I'm quietly and cautiously celebrating for you as well. It's been a long long road.

I love the song Lyndzies! We sing "Into the great wide cervix/Under Fallopian tubes/Into the great wide cervix/Spermies without a clue...." Totally dorky.

And yes, when we had our KD, we "did it" at his house in both senses - the insem and, well, the other "doing it." He and his wife left for the movies and with a wink said, "have fun!" So we did.

[FtMPapa]

Lyndzies - I've "done it" at KD's house (and in my car, my office, the bathroom beside my classroom, uh....nevermind, lots of places).

That song is great! I wish I was still at camp, I would've gotten my kids to sing it for me to record.

KJM has inseminated all over the freakin' three counties, and she's knocked up, so go for it!

PF - Woah! I'm ready to shout from the rooftops, just give me the word.

KS - AWESOME!!!!! Woot!!!! : :


AFM - I have a fertility clinic appointment in about three weeks, and a sparkly band aid on my arm from my blood draw today, and I'm not at all sore from the PAP I had, too.

Now if I could just start bleeding so I could be waiting to O and peeing on the sticks for my new fertility monitor which came in the mail today...though potential KD is on board, we still have to have another conversation this weekend.

[hoping2bmoms]

Ksdoulamama yea I'm o happy for you. Pf *quietly* yea!! I can't wait for either of you to get that all so important md confermation. I look farward to following your journey.

[erthe_mama]

@ Lyndzies: I know what you mean about getting up early on the weekends to temp. Ugh. I found that my dp waking up at 2am to temp was pretty funny though! She says I'm patient almost to a fault though. Heh. Btw, that gut feeling thing seems to work... I say trust it. Also, I frickin love your lyrics!!

@ astropeep: I'm sorry to hear that, darlin; better luck next cycle!

@ pleasantlyfurious: Yay for feeling happy and peaceful and for cautious optimism.

@ KSDoulaMama: Congrats on the this morning! Here's some for a sticky baby!!!

[erthe_mama]

Oooh gee, I almost forgot to tell y'all... My dp and I are back to just her womb for ttc for now. We spoke at length about it a couple days ago and we figure there are several reasons (mostly extended family-related) why it wouldn't be a particularly good idea. Ah well. We'll just start early for the next one since it may take me a while to conceive, and even if it happened right away (yeah right... lol) the kids would be at least 9 or so months apart anyway.

[wehrli]

ErikaLeigh, welcome! good for you for getting ready so early! i wish we had been more prepared... are you charting??

astro, good luck at your appt today... i hope beyond hope there is some better news!

jjnoho & osker, FX for you... hoping that the TWW isn't stressful for youse guys

ksdoula, omg! happy, happy...

pleasantlyfurious, oh... i am soo hopeful!

cejae & lyndzies, cute songs! i'm kinda surprised that i haven't come up with a song or something silly like that. now i may just sing your songs!

erthe, i'm glad that you have made the best decision for you.

afu, my chart is driving me crazy... yesterday FF told me i O'd sometime over the weekend... then today i entered my temp (it was higher than it's been all month) and it took away my O! WTF?! now after studying my chart, i wonder if it is possible that i O'd at insem time... today is the day AF should arrive, if i O on my normal 17th day... DP thinks i should POAS just to be sure, and i did have some nausea the last three days... but i'm really not hopeful. if anyone cares to look at my chart for this month and give me their interpretation, i would love it, but please don't feel obligated.

[indigoscot]

wow, i haven't checked here in a day and there's not one, but two bfps to celebrate!!! :::

stick to the pole little ones!!!!!

[KSDoulaMama]

wehrli- I'd love to look at your chart! Where can I find it?

[KSDoulaMama]

Nevermind, I found it. I think that it is either an anovulatory cycle or possibly you ovulated on CD 25... The temps ARE pretty wacky, and cervical fluid and position are only charted sporadically, so I can't be sure. I'm pretty good with chart interpretation usually. There is that small patch of EW and a temp dip around that day, and then somewhat of a rise, especially if you were to discount your temp on CD 23.

My two cents! Good luck. Nothing worse than a confusing cycle when you are TTC!!!

[kjm]

Congrats KS & PF stick lil beans stick!! grow lil beans grow!!

[cejae]

Can I be moved to Waiting to Know? Embarking on my 7th TWW (or in my case...11 day wait...)

[pleasantlyfurious]

Thank you everyone for your support and encouragement. We had two days of what I was sure were evap lines and then on CD 12 it looked like a faint, but real line, so we tried a digital and it gave us an unmistakable "pregnant".

I think we are just going to let ourselves be happy. We're even going to tell my family tonight. Last time we decided to wait until the end of the first trimester to share the news and we miscarried right before the big announcement - and we felt so alone. So we are just gonna jump in with both feet!

::::

I'm pregnant!

[ErikaLeigh]

KSDoulaMama this is great news! I am so excited for you guys!

Lyndzies thanks for adding me to list! I am so excited and feel so welcomed here!

wehrli - thanks for the warm welcome! I am starting to chart this month!


pleasantlyfurious - thanks for the warm welcome!

Anyone else that I missed- Thanks for the welcome!

AFM - I am going to start chartingt this month, near the end I'm sure as that is when my appointment is with the dr to get back on some sort of medications to get my periods back regular.
Anyone else dealing with PCOS? I know that this is going to cause us a little bit of a struggle, but we are prepared to deal with this!

Hope all is well with everyone else!

[megincl]

Congrats PF and KSDoula!!!!!! ::::

Hoping you're starting us on a fabulous fall path with lots of BFPs (ours among them, please ).

be well all,
megin

[ErikaLeigh]

another question I wanted to ask is has anyone used Coconut Oil?
How much water do you get in during a general day?

I started yesterday with the Coconut Oil for energy and weight loss.

Today I still feel like I have more energy and definatly not wanting to snack and eat all day!

As far as the water I am trying to make sure that I get at least 20 ounces a day but trying to work myself back up to 40+ a day!

Anyone else?
