Nursing Mamas TTC in December - Page 17

[hannybanany]

I need to make a dollar store run today. I'm out of tests! My boobs are sooo sore, I really hope this is a good sign... My temp was up this morning, too. : :

[jr'smom]

Why is it always the busiest times of the month that I near ovulation? And how do the kids know to stay up really late the nights we want to DTD?

Well, I'm getting excited at least that it's time to try again! I hope and pray that this is the month! I probably won't O until the 28th but I'll start OPKs tomorrow.

Then there's the dreaded 2WW! I'm always so hopeful and then surprised and crushed when I get BFNs. Please let this cyce be different!

It's good to read other people's stories and know that its "normal" to ride this emotional rollercoaster! Good luck to you all! I hope to read about a lot of BFPs!

Crossing my fingers for you Hanny.

temp was down this morning, so i didn't even bother testing. AF is not due to arrive til the day after christmas, i hope she doesn't plan on showing early

Hey nursing mamas....

Getting prolactin levels tested after christmas...Can anyone tell me if DS is nursing 3-4 times a day, and I still seem to have lots of milk, does this mean my levels are probably too high?

I hate the thought that I'll HAVE to wean before conceiving DC#2.:
Any advice? or just some cheer?

Hi Ive never thought to do that if i get a bfn i might do the same as i think mine might be high as for the first time ever i cant seem to get pregnant and like you i dont want to rush weaning im happy to let DS feed a little longer Ild be intrested to see how it all goes for you

[honeybee]

I had a lot of EWCM so I figured that I was ovulating. I had been having a little bit of cm here and there, so I think it was a few false starts.

Sure enough, AF returned about a week later.

There is a lot more on there. B6 can increase the luteal phase if there is a problem with it being too short.

Thanks for the info--very interesting. Has anyone here read the John R. Lee books? I'm kind of a book junkie, so I may have to order the premenopause one if the reviews on amazon seem good.

[catemom]

Hannybananny, please move me to 2ww. Thanks!

[DreamsInDigital]

Move me to 2ww as well but I'm already feeling like AF is coming. I think I'm doomed to have a short LP until one of my nurslings weans. Which doesn't seem like it will happen very soon. My last LP was 5 days and then I had two annovulatory cycles.

[ShiningStar]

Well, we had a crazy Christmas. Everyone in our house got struck with a stomach bug, so we weren't able to visit family. In good news though, before I realized I was sick, I thought I was having early pregnancy symptoms and took a hpt. It came back + almost right away at 9dpo. We didn't get to enjoy it, because we all got pretty sick. Today, I'm feeling much better and took another test to be sure. Gotta a definite BFP!!!

[bodhicitta3]

yay Shingstar!!!!!!
