Welcome MeredithA! It's lovely to have you here, but I hope this is your only 2WW with us and you get your BFP 

I'm sorry Stevi  *hugs* to you and to Gemmine as well!

AFM just sitting on 4DPO . DH and I went hiking yesterday up a mountain and MAN I am out of shape, but it was so worth it. The view was gorgeous!

I have a question - What's everyone's opinions on soy milk while TTC or in the 2WW? I decided to make the switch to soy instead of dairy this month because I drink A LOT of milk and I really love it but I don't think it makes me feel very good. Some research also suggests dairy adds to the elevated testosterone I already have because of PCOS. I had kind of forgotten I had told DH about switching and he came home at 1DPO with soy instead of dairy. I'd never tried it before so I had half a glass to see if I'd like it. Then I got worried and started googling and realised that a lot of people are against drinking soy milk while pregnant! So I haven't drunk any since then...should I just stick to dairy?

Thanks for the warm welcome! 

Tantylynn, I don't drink a lot of milk, but I do like it on cereal. When I started ttc, I switched to almond milk. (dairy doesn't seem to agree with me during pregnancy) I have never been a fan of soy and it can interfere with your hormones which is why some people do not recommended it in pregnancy. Plus, almond milk tastes so much better.

Trying not to get too excited, but I'm pretty sure I did in fact ovulate! If it's true, I am so excited to have ovulated so "early" and to be having a normal length cycle! The stress and anxiety of temping was getting me yesterday. I'll probably temp until at least Tues to confirm and then take a few days off. I'm not going to push DH to BD tonight, but if he's up for it I sure am!

Anyone is welcome to start the new thread for the week  Cygknit?

I can't believe it's Sunday again already!

Welcome Meredith!

Tantylynn, I don't have any medical evidence or anything but I would stay away from soy while TTC.  Try almond or rice milk instead.

AFM, I'm fairly certain I released an eggie this morning.  Ironically, I experienced mittelschmerz while I was making eggs for breakfast.  And almost immediately my CM became more abundant.  Of course, SO is at work until 4.  We're planning on going out to dinner tonight so I might have to jump him when he gets home.  lol  Otherwise we won't be able to DTD until 10 or 11...and we didn't do it at all yesterday (but did the day before).  Everyone cross your fingers that we can catch that egg today!  :D

New thread is up! I wonder if there were any other Highlander fans out there

TenzinsMama: That really stinks that it wasn't your month. :: crosses fingers:: for next month!

AFM FF FINALY gave me cross hairs WOO HOO! Yesterdays temp was really low due to interupted sleep, so I was getting worried lol. But ALL is good now. We ended up BDing a few days leading up to O and on O day, but unfortunately not the day after O. It says my 'Intercourse Timing' is 'GOOD' lol I am 3 DPO

Thanks for your words, too, Mom2IrishBoys.  Hey, good luck to you this month-- your timing sounds great!  Hope the 2ww goes by quickly for you.
