Bitter Sushi Ladies: January Edition - Page 6

[BelovedK]

Drive by posting. I am just so excited, I modeled for a friend in an artistic nude photo shoot. There is fabric (sheer) strategically placed. I was feeling really bad about myself, and my body, but the photos turned out so good!!! They are going up with others in an art show, I am kinda nervous, but it is not like they are smutty, they are not even boudoir photos. I took the plunge and posted the blog link on FB, I wonder if I should've. Hmmm, I doubt DH would be upset.

I have been drinking my green tea, and taking all of my supplements, bring it on, January!!!!

Hmmm...  I doubt he would be too!  You go girl - that's fantastic!  I wish I had the guts to do something like that - DH would love it!  Your post made me excited for you!  Not in that way....  you know what I mean.

Beloved: That's fabulous! Yay for feeling great about your body. I love those times! Enjoy the photos, and the month!

Let's look at the equation: vacation+hot tob+alcohol+BD on CD 14 and 16 - I would actually say that your odds are pretty good this month, MBA!

Glad you had such a wonderful vacation. It sounds like you are in a great mindset right now. Time away works wonders, doesn't it?

Beloved- I am totally off to look at your fb page. I wish I could make photos like that. I am such a whimp.

Mba- I missed you around here. Glad out had a nice time. It is snowing in the south right now, so it looks like you just missed the bad weather. I agree with collie - too much alcohol + hot tub + sex with your dh when it is just for fun sounds like a great combination for baby making.

I took them down, chickened out, but they are on my friend's blog, I am not shy, I am mostly covered and it is mostly in silouette (sp?)

Beloved, you are such a beautiful woman!  I always wanted to do a shoot like that, but I'm kind of shy about it. Maybe I'll have my husband do some shots like that of me sometime using the lighting equipment we bought to do photos of our son.

And thanks, everyone, for the, um, encouragement after my crazy + OPK post.  I got another + today, which is typical for me. If I follow my usual pattern, I'll O tomorrow or the day after (CD23/CD24). We're roughly following sperm meets egg right now. It just sort of turned out that way. Every other day starting at CD14 (b/c I O late and we were away), then every day starting with the + OPK.

Yea I saw that- after I totally forgot your name, so I had to look through three days of status updates to find something that you wrote - that means looking at dozens of weird posts about fb games from dh's aunt, and 80s music YouTube posts from one high school friend. I should block them, it is almost as bad as people who post baby photos all the time. They are the reason I don't check fb very often.

Anyway, they are so beautiful. Totally tasteful and artsey. I love the fan, and the sheer coverings.

Sweetbee- fingers crossed for you.

Afm - I am taking birth control pills as part of the ivf suppression. I have all been posting more in the ivf thread than here, although I feel so familiar with most of you it is strange to be frequenting a new thread. I am still mad at dh for telling his mom. He claims that he really needed to talk to somebody about the m/c and couldn't talk to me because I was laying in bed crying for five weeks (which is true). OK, I guess I can understand that, but there is still no excuse for telling her about ivf. He is sorry, but I don't forgive easily.

[BelovedK]

rcr, thank you (about the photos) I hope things smooth over for you and your DH quickly.

[Laggie]

BelovedK, your photos are beautiful, thanks for sharing them.

rcr, I am sorry you are upset. I can't really relate though, as I *wish* DP would tell his family. I feel like they're just wondering when we'll have kids but are too polite to ask. And luckily he is okay with me telling my family, as I wouldn't be able to keep my mouth shut.

[musicoholic]

Beloved - your pics are stunning! 

rcr - I'm the same.  And when I do get to the forgiveness part, I don't forget.  I hope you work through things quickly hun 

[Jane]

Beloved - love the photos! 

O day is here, ish.  Femara O is much more comfy than Clomid O. 

[BelovedK]

Jane, yay for Oing!!, and new hope

[Kinza]

Beloved:  The pictures are just beautiful.  I'm so glad the photos made you feel good about yourself.

rcr: 

Sweet.Bee:  Yay for early O'ing!  Good luck.

Jane: 

And hugs to all!

[collieflower]

Just dropped in to say that the photos are beautiful, Beloved! You look very sexy (if you don't mind my saying!).

SB - Good luck! It seems like you have perfect timing this month.

Kinza - Hi there!

Jane - I've never had any kind of noticeable O, but I am very glad yours is better with Femara.

Rcr - How are the BCPs going? Any symptoms? I took them once for a couple of months, but was a complete basket case and had to stop. In retrospect, I guess that's not such a bad thing. You must be getting excited! When will your egg retrieval and stuff take place? Or is that something you don't know yet?

Off to try for an hour or so of rest before another jam-packed day. Does anyone else find the winter so draining? I feel like I need to be in bed by 9:30 every night, and I just barely drag myself out of bed in the mornings.  Zeeero energy.

[rcr]

Jane - hope!

Collie- I don't really feel much different from the bcp. It is a little annoying to have to take them because I am so excited to get going. Not that I am excited for all the shots and monitoring, but you know, something hopeful is good. I have a few weeks of the bcp. The doc put together my schedule on Friday and mailed it out, so I should know more soon.

[lavatea]

rcr - Sorry to hear that about your DH. That sucks.

Beloved - Nice photos!

AFM - Temps still low. They're above coverline, but that bar wasn't very high. IDK. I just feel like this month was a good month. I got a positive OPK. We BD'ed the next morning. According to temp spike, that was the day I O'ed. But my temps just haven't climbed. I've had 3 BFNs now. One at 10 DPO, one at 11 DPO, and then one this evening at 13 DPO. The first two were taking with FMU. The one I took tonight was on a whim. Shouldn't have wasted it. The earliest I've had a BFP was probably 13 DPO, so maybe it's still early? I hate the TWW!! And I don't want to start over!

[musicoholic]

Yay Jane!!

lavatea - I have everything crossed it's still just early for you!!!

afm:  TMI ALERT....  FF reckons I'm past my fertile period (going by previous cycles), and I haven't had a temp shift yet.....  

...... holy ewcm batman!  Came on all of a sudden this afternoon....  I haven't had this in MONTHS (have only got as far as watery) - let alone this much!!  I know what I'm doing tonight....  Birthday BD!!  

Okay.  Excitement done.  I'm over it.  lol

Happy birthday music Yay for ewcm

lavatea, I hate it when I wast a test, it's still early, it's still possible. I am pulling for you and your future bean.

rcr, I am so excited for you!!!

collieflower, yes, I find the winter draining, I am ready for bed at dusk practically, but then I get a second wind and stay up too late, feeding the tiredness the next day.

Kinza

I started temping this morning. I am losing weight, lost another pound this morning We'll see what this month brings. I am doing maca and DHEA.
