@Mommy2b4 & jojobean: Yay for DH coming round!

[CDsMom1031]

CD17 for me now. Add cold symptoms to me, too. My throat is killing me. My body hurts... And, FINALLY, my boobs are sore. Maybe there's still hope for an O.

I have had tender breasts from 1 DPO in all 3 of my TTC cycles, and I had never experienced that before in my life.

I hope you're right!!! Still pretty tender, particularly in the nipple area, today at 4 DPO. Otherwise no real symptoms, but it's still early. I still feel like the bb pain is so weird this early. But, like you said, hopefully it's a GOOD sign!!! It's so early in the wait that I'm really trying not to think about TTC, but the pain/soreness is definitely NOT helping...

Sorry I don't have time for much else or personals, ladies. Gonna be a busy one today...

Stephaniqua: Sorry about AF. I was chart stalking and really hoped you'd get your BFP.

AFM: 7 DPO, almost made it to the 1ww! So far no insane urge to test. Boobs a little tender, had some twinges, but it could go either way.

Please move me to waiting to O

I just looked at your chart from the other thread and saw that.

CD4 here, and officially back in the TTC game. I was hoping for one of those "oh, we stopped trying and surprise!" BFPs last cycle, and kind of bummed... but I think both DH and I needed a major break.

I forgot to take my temp this morning - I think it is going to take a few days to get back into the habit - but I will start back on supplements tonight.

While we didn't have TTCing taking up so much mental real estate we managed to make some pretty huge decisions regarding other parts of our lives. We have decided that I will be closing my home daycare, which is HUGE!! I am so excited! I have been really burnt out for a long time. I just did my time sheets since it is the 1st of the month, and I worked 50.25 hours last week, and nearly 210 in the month of October. No wonder I am tired!

A friend of ours has asked if I can come to their house two days a week to watch their little girl. They have a beautiful log home on a nice piece of land, so it is going to feel like I am going on vacation! Their daughter and my DD are only one week apart in age and get along really well so I think it will be fun. Plus only two days a week. And the days are short, only 8 hours.

We were looking at trying to make it just on DH's salary and we could, but it would be really tight. This arrangement is going to give us the financial buffer we were looking for.

I am SO EXCITED!!!

Popping in to say hello and thanks for the new thread Attached2Elijah!

I've been following along and have been thinking of you all this weekend - I miss you ladies!!!

Welcome to the new folks - hope your stays are short!

CD16 and the BDing has begun (usually o around 18-20). Went to a party on Sat and forgot to bring an opk...which only bothers me because I had an almost positive that morning. But it seems early, so I'm just bding and pretending like it would have been negative anyway.

I excluded my pre-DS stats from FF....I had really inconsistant cycles, which doesn't really seem to be the case now. Has anyone else noticed a change post-birth/bfing?

1.) You're welcome Figured I would be on here a ton during the 2ww anyway so I might as well do it.

2.) We've missed you too!!!

3.) Yes! When TTC DS, I didn't chart but my cycles were only 25-26 days long so betting my LP was pretty short before him. With DD, I KNOW it was short. I was Oing around CD 18-20 and had a 9-10 day LP, except the month I got my BFP I o'd on CD 14 for the first time in 2 years (which is how long we were TTC)... While I was BFing her, I wasn't Oing but as soon as I quit BFing, I started charting and sure enough, I was Oing at CD 14-16 with a *12* day LP! Which is also the reason I am hopeful that maybe this time around it won't take 2 years to get a BFP. I also took out all of my pre-DD cycles because it was really throwing FF off.

to you, sweetie! I was really hoping it was implantation bleeding.

Can I be moved to Waiting to O as well? I think I saw my name on two lists - Waiting for Aunt Flo and Waiting to be Ready, so if you wouldn't mind removing me from both, I'd be grateful.

AF isn't here yet, but my temp dropped a little this morning, I have cramps, and I'm exceptionally cranky, so I imagine she'll be here tomorrow. I'm so frustrated with her timing. I have an OB/GYN appointment scheduled for Friday (I thought I'd be in the clear by then - I wasn't expecting a 33+ day cycle, especially given that the last one was only 24 days), and this means I'll have to reschedule FOR THE THIRD TIME. I've been trying to get in for a pap since August. Ugh.

Sorry about that ... I figured it would happen to someone as I kind of had to do the list back from 2 threads ago b/c of some issues... will get that fixed.

SS about the temp drop...

[motray36]

Thanks Attached2Elijah! That makes me feel better about excluding them. I unfortunately don't have a lot of data without them, but I figure accuracy is more important!

[Stevi]

Neither of yesterdays planned BDs came happened. But, my temp didn't go up today, so I still have time. Hoping to get someone scheduled today.

Everybody have a Reproductive November 2010!!!!!

[ValH]

To all the new ladies: Welcome! I hope your stay here is super short!

Sourire: So sorry AF found you... she sucks.

Stevi: Good luck with getting some BDing scheduled for tonight!!! Sending you some good vibes for successful BDing.

AFM: CD11. Just waiting to O. I don't usually O until between 14-17, so I've got a few days. I've already started DH on the every-other-day schedule... he doesn't seem to mind.

AF is evil. Too bad she didn't show yesterday instead, even though I would have been depressed one days sooner at least I could have joked around that "the witch showed up on Halloween"... haha
