Vegans TTC in SPRING! - Page 4

[AmandaMom]

Cindy - Glad to hear you still use your Vita-Mix so often! DP is in LOVE with it. I'm honestly surprised it didn't sleep between us in bed last night.

sorry I missed this until now snow~pea. HUGS!!!!!!!

How's everyone doing? Anyone in the 2WW? Thinking of my fellow vegan new mamas to be!

I'm on cd10 and getting excited about this cycle. I should O in about a week or so. Then it's the 2WW for me!

[Vegan Princess]

I *think* I might be ovulating? I had some pains but am waiting for a temp shift. I'd like to hurry up and ovulate so that 1) I know that I am ovulating again after stopping my meds and 2) the sooner I ovulate, the sooner I can move on to the next cycle and start trying!!

How is everyone doing?

[AmandaMom]

I'm hanging in there. AF is due tomorrow, so we'll see. I don't feel pregnant at all, but I also don't feel pending AF. AHHH the joys of TTC!

BIL made some delicious vegan fajitas for mother's day. After we all INSISTED it wasn't tofu, even FIL ate some! It was seitan strips, onions, peppers, and a yummy sauce. DP and I brought over Tofutti sour cream and some Daiya cheese. Have any of you tried Daiya cheese? It's by far my favorite.

[Vegan Princess]

I love daiya cheese! DH and I even made a cheddar and beer fondue out of it and it was divine.

Well I had my IUD removed 38 days ago. Was supposed to wait for a real period to start TTC but seeing as I have yet to O or get AF we have just started trying anyway. I figure 38 days is probably long enough for the lining to build back up. Not sure why I haven't O'd or gotten AF yet. I e-mailed my dr last week and she said to give it another month - I guess this is somewhat typical. So maybe we will catch the 1st egg and I will never get AF. One can hope, right? Anyway, we are officially trying now! Yay!

Another BFN but I'm feeling really good about this cycle. Third time's the charm!

On a happier note, I made my own peanut butter for the first time, and it is YUM YUMMY.

[AmandaMom]

When I said I was feeling good about this cycle, I had no idea I'd be sitting at CD23 with no O in sight. Sigh. Oh well, gotta stay positive!

Does anyone have a recipe that includes pearl onions? DP harvested about 15 of them and is very proud!

Vegan Princess - Were you able to catch that first egg?

Somegirl, oceane, Snow~Pea - How is everyone?

Would someone like to start a Summer thread? I will gladly do it if no one else is interested. Maybe a new thread is just what we need around here to bring us a little luck!

[Vegan Princess]

I finally got my period last Friday - 55 days after having my IUD removed! I was beginning to think it would never come back while nursing this much. I don't think I ovulated before that. Now I am on cycle day 8. I used to O b/w 11 and day 13 so we are acting as if I might. But honestly I have no idea if I even will this cycle. I think my cycles are probably still not regulated yet since DD nurses like a fiend still. We're opening our special bottle of wine tonight though to kick off our officially trying! :-)

Amanadamom: I hope you O soon too!!

AmandaMom and VeganPrincess, here's for your eggs to show up soon!

Thanks for asking, I'm doing well, getting a bit more awkward and uncomfortable now that I'm getting bigger but everything healthwise is good so far.

Starting to get all the baby items that we need...it's getting close!

I agree, it's probably time for a new thread if you don't mind starting one.

[AmandaMom]

Thanks, Cindy!

Somegirl, you are almost there! Hopefully you'll have access to a pool during the upcoming hot weather. I hear it works wonders during the third trimester.

It's settled then; I will start a summer thread in the morning!

[AmandaMom]

Come on over to the pretty new SUMMER thread!
