Three times since Thursday I have had a weird stomach issue where I get violently sick first thing in the morning within 20 minutes of waking up, and then I will be fine for the rest of the day. This sounds like morning sickness but I don't think I'm pregnant. I would prefer a pregnancy not start that way, but it has made me realize how badly I wish I was pregnant! I can't wait for September to get here to start TTC.

@puffbrat I'm not sure if I should say I hope it starts or I hope it doesn't start. haha But either way I'm glad to hear you will go to the doctor if it keeps up. It does sound very unpleasant. I hate getting sick. (I'm hoping I'll be one of the lucky ones that doesn't have morning sickness.)

@VeryKatie I hope next month is your month to conceive! It's so exciting that you're finally going to start trying!

@VeryKatie Depending on what female issue you're talking about and when you were treated for it, if it still hasn't gone away - you may need another treatment for it and in some cases it is probably not a good idea to be having sex while it's still present as it can cause more problems.

@puffbrat ...do you think you are pregnant?! Oooh the plot thickens, haha! Hope you feel better, pregnant or not that sounds awful. I have heard that ginger helps with nausea, so maybe try some ginger candy (I found some at gnc and Oriental markets, or Altoids makes a ginger mint as well.)

I bought 50 pee pregnancy tests on Amazon!!! *squeels*
They were like $10 and I was like, why not $10 is nothing ....plus there's 50! And I'm gonna POAS like every 4 hours when we start trying. I'm not sure which one of you recommend buying them online, but when they show up and I have to explain myself to my hubby I'm blaming you, lol! We are planning to start trying in October, so I'm really jumping the gun here.

Also they are pee in a cup then put the strip in the pee kind. I haven't ever used them before, anyone like these kind? Everytime in the past that I used a pregnancy test it was bc I was late but not trying....this will be my first time stocking up on tests. They also seem more environmentally friendly without all that plastic on the big clear blue kinds.

@VeryKatie I'm so excited for you that you have started trying!! Are you charting everything, when you dtd, cm, basil temp, or just having fun with it? (She asks the internet strangers....haha.) Congrats and good luck!

Going to put the July spreadsheet up tonight for people to sign up. Sorry I kind of took the rest of June off there..

@VeryKatie I think everyone needed a break anyway. haha
When you say you missed the start of your cycle? Are you saying you're late and might be pregnant!!? or that you missed where you should have started to temp? or am I just reading it all wrong? haha

@VeryKatie Ahh, okay. haha Bang away! =P

Thanks @VeryKatie

I tend to gravitate toward more simple, traditional boys names like Edward, Alex, James, Brian....

I also like Cole, Cody, and Logan

Thomas and Emily are the names we have picked out. I am definitely a fan of traditional, classic names.

Alexander, Andrew, Jason. I like Richard but do not like what some people shorten it to. William is nice too.

I told my husband that I want another girl though and he said sure.

It sounds like everyone is starting the journey and madly peeing on sticks or getting the planning started and getting in tune with your bodies! I peed on so many ovulation sticks and ended up ordering a bulk 100 off amazon because I got sick of paying a fortune for them at the pharmacy! So if you are tracking temps and cm then jump on the ovulation stick bandwagon and it will give you even more info! I am still just plodding along feeling totally not pregnant but eating as though I am lol have our first scan in 3 weeks to make sure there is a weeny heartbeat and that things are on track, in sure it will feel more really when I see the ultrasound!! Time to stop "eating for two" and start tracking again this month, last thing I want is to blow out too early

Dtd....do the deed? Lol trying to keep up with all the acronyms.
