Lydiah - ...I just caught up on the thread since Thursday. SO so so so sorry...I can't believe it...

AFM: Just trying to take it easy and enjoy myself as AF is on her way out the door. Hopefully his time next week we'll be BDing like crazy

Baby dust to everyone!! Hope to see some sticky BFP's soon!!!!!

Lydiah - I'm so sorry. My heart aches for you.

I keep checking in on you guys. I want to see October be good to somebody else.

AFM: I saw my fertility nurse today and she said my #s look good so far. But I am on the progesterone, so she wants to continue that for now. But now I'm on injections. So DH had to learn how to give me a progesterone shot in the butt. I always knew he was a pain in the a**.

I started spotting. I have cramps and my lower back hurts. I am sure AF will be here full force tomorrow. DH and I have decided to take a break for one cycle. We will be using protection as I just cant handle a third loss in a row. Plus we can plan a snowboarding trip for December.

This is the weirdest cycle I've ever had.
I started 4 days early, bled lightly for 2 days... Stopped for a day and now I'm bleeding again, but it's still light. My periods are usually 3-4 days with heavy bleeding on the first day and hardly anything the next three.
I wish my stupid body would decide what it wanted.
The only thing I have changed about my lifestyle is I started taking prenatal vitamins 3 months ago. My body's been stupid ever since. UGHHH.

All my love goes out to those who AF has come to. I really hope that this thread gets some more babies, because it just seems unfair right now.

Erg.. I just got O pains starting. My CM is watery but there's not a lot of it. Is Pre-Seed a good idea?

Pre-seed doesn't replace CM but it can help if dryness is an issue when you BD. You can still get pregnant with a bit of watery CM so don't worry!

I'm so sorry.

Lydia: I'm so sorry. It's hard. I wish there was something more to say. Way to think about something positive, though. I hope you have a great snowboarding trip (where do you think you might go?).

TTCChloeOrConner: I have had the same thing, my last period (which was actually a very early miscarriage) but also the period before that. I've been taking my prenatals for nearly a year now, so I can't blame them. I got my IUD out in May, so that hasn't changed only for the last two months. The ONLY thing that I can think of that's changed is that my DH is home now, so we're DTD a lot more, and that I was hoping to be prego both of those months. And the weather, but I haven't noticed lighter flow EVER in my life until these last two months. And I use a keeper cup, so I have a pretty good quantitative measure of my flow. I don't understand.

Stephaniqua: Welcome!

Motray: Thanks for the thread. I'm way too busy to be a good threadkeeper right now, and I'm trying not to obsess since we're taking a little while off, but I'll pull my weight eventually.

ValH: I'm sorry it's been such a rough ride for you this month. It seems like sometimes hope just ends up making us feel worse. I'm glad your LP has gotten longer, though.

Nearly everybody: Sorry about AF. Soon, soon . . .

Swimming-duck: Glad to hear your numbers are good. Sorry about the shots in the butt . . . well worth it though!

AFM: Just chillin', and working like heck to get ready for winter. We've been some busy. We're getting lots done, though. I'm still finding little things on the bright side. I have more time to chart and see what my normal cycles look like, and I'm actually kind of excited for that. I never knew I could find out what was going on in my most mysterious of regions just by charting my body temperature. Cool!

Lydiah - I'm so sorry for what you are going through! You'll be in my thoughts and prayers. I'm glad you have something fun to look forward to, though - snowboarding sounds like a great distraction!

To all that AF have found recently - . She's being so awful this month! Geez.

AFM - Still cramping and spotting a little. Temp is still up (same as yesterday), but I usually don't drop until 13/14dpo, and today i'm only 12 (or 13), so I'm expecting the drop tomorrow.

So sorry to everyone

I have a friend who was told after over 2 years of TTC that it was not going to happen for her. She announced last night that she is pregnant, due in April. So on her behalf...

Good Morning... Nothing exciting going on with me. Just chillin' at CD 6 with a horrible backache that I am hoping goes away before it's time to start really DTD since I can barely move. This is what happens when fat girls go hiking and pulling themselves up steep inclines using tree roots and branches.

**hugs** to all who are dealing with AF and FX crossed for those getting ready to test!

motray what an inspiring story!

AFM - trying to decide whether to BD tonight or skip a day. DH finishes work at 10pm and he is very tired when he gets home so its tough. Last night he almost wasn't able to finish because of that. Also in previous months DH had trouble when it was the 3rd or 4th day in a row we were BDing. So I am wondering whether we should take a break today to make sure that we don't have any problems on the day of O or the day before O. The only thing I am worried about is: what if today is one of those days???

My fertility monitor gave me a high reading this morning as opposed to a peak reading, but this is the first month I am using it and I have heard that you don't necessarily get a peak reading in the first month, so that doesn't really reassure me. In the past I have O'd anywhere from CD17 to CD21, and today is CD16 so O tomorrow is a possibility!

What would you ladies do?

Here's my chart
post #55 of 135
Good morning everyone...

CD5 for me...hoping to start doing the BD in about a week. Still real light flow/spotting...AF just will NOT leave this time around...

Baby dust to those of you still "in the game" for this cycle!

Sourire: Could you DTD in the morning instead of tonight? Trying to get my DH into the mood after a long day at work is pretty impossible, so I usually just skip it and give him a really nice wakeup instead
post #57 of 135
LivingSky, thanks for the suggestion, I will see what DH thinks. On the days when he works until 10pm he is usually still asleep when I leave for work in the morning, and I'm not sure how enthusiastic he will be about me waking him up early! But maybe it will work better than in the evening, we will see! Unfortunately it's too late for today since I'm already at work and I won't see him again today until 10:15pm.... though it just occured to me that when I have my lunch break, he will not yet have left for work, and my office is only a few minutes away from home. Hmmm....
