Hallo gang. I wanted fill y'all in on how things went with my pregnancy in case anyone else still checks in. @VeryKatie Did you ever make a decision? I'm sort of in the same place right now where I'm debating whether or not I want more kids. It's a dread weight I'm dragging around every month not sure if I can do it again…

Hi @melichalupa ! Welcome. This group somewhat petered out during Covid and what not last year. But some of us still check in occasionally as it's a very special place for us where we shared our struggles together. Who knows, maybe more people will join and it will be that place again. I'd love to hear more about your 6…

Hey guys, happy 4th of July! So we finally got our BFP yesterday. I had mostly given up, thinking I was getting too old to have good fertility. Now I need to be serious about getting into shape though. I'm 10 lbs heavier than I was last time, and last time the extra weight wrecked my feet. So I need to not gain a lot of…

Happy 4th of July! @puffbrat How has it been the last couple months? That was some hard news, but doesn't sound impossible. But I also am not sure I would choose fertility treatments. @arendiva I'm glad you got your thyroid checked. Maybe on the medicine you will find things improve and the cycles settle down. Hoping for…

@puffbrat Riiiight. I'm staying as far from every doctor's office as I can right now. And I know what you mean about looking at app data with a suspicious eye. I second guess my apps all the time. The OPKs are usually helpful for me. I started out with dollar tree ones, then eventually got a big pack of cheapies off ebay…

Ok, I'm starting off at 171.4 My goals are to get out side as much as possible with walking and yard work, and not just lay around tired after work. Also, to get pregnant. And/or lose a few pounds and get down to 166. I would like to be able to fit into some summer shorts/jeans.

So apparently my March weight only went down 1/2 a pound. lol. @puffbrat yaaay! good job

@Bekah7482 Yaaaay! Congratuations!!!! @WifiresGettingFit Oh no. Sorry to hear about the hail damage. That happens here from time to time. My car is full of dents because I didn't have the money to fix it last time it happened several years back. :( I mean, they gave me a small amount of money, but I needed it to pay off…

Ladies, how are you? Is everyone doing alright with this coronastuff freaking everyone out? I thought I'd check on y'all. It's been tough here. My husband is off school indefinitely. If they don't start school again in August, he'll have to find another job entirely. I'm back to working 10 hour days. We had to fire or lay…
-
How's everyone doing? I'm in the same boat with not having lost enough weight here lately as I'd like to for TTC. I might have to start working out at home since all gyms are closed too. @puffbrat Sooo, I totes know how you feel. After I posted last time, I ended up with a surprise 21 day cycle with only a 9 day luteal…

@puffbrat Total bummer to be that early. On the bright side, it's only been 6 months and cycles are normal? Hang in there! And, I'm not sure if you're a Walking Dead fan but...

@WifiresGettingFit Fantastic and very achievable.

I saw my new doc today. She said if I don't get pregnant in two more months, she can write a referral for me to see a reproductive specialist. She seems nice. She asked if I was using sperm friendly products and taking my vitamins... I really don't wanna take my vitamins as I used to throw them up, but I suppose I'd better…
-
@arendiva Fingers crossed for you!

Yay! I'm starting at 173.6 lbs. My goal is to get to 169 by the end of the month. I also want to go to the gym 2x's a week so my knees hurt less.
-
Hey, y'all. How's everyone doing here at the end of January? Are we gonna do a February challenge next month? I'm ready to go lose some weight! In a wedding in April. I would love to trim 10 lbs off so I look like less of a purple tent in this voluminous bridesmaid dress I have to wear. Just a quick catch up on while I've…

P.S. If I could figure out where the kid hid the digital thermometer it would help. I've been looking for 3 days for it. :D Sometimes I think he really doesn't want mommy to have another kid the way he acts.
-
Yeah, I've seen the great sperm race. It's fun to think how amazing the stats are for creating life. ...I use mymonthlycycles.com and fertilityfriend.com Hey guys, I'm poking my head back in. Nice to see new members since the last time I was here. Also good to see old friends. I've started being more purposeful again with…

Hey guys. How's it going? I'm looking forward to leaving July 2nd for South Dakota, Mt. Rushmore, the Badlands, Wyoming, Jewel Cave, and a family reunion with the cousins. There is an hour and a half long cave tour where you carry an old fashioned oil lamp and crawl through tight spaces and climb steep ladders I'm trying…

I'm excited, y'all. I've been avoiding my bioelectric impedance scale for a whole year, terrified of what it would Say, and... Since this time last year when I was in third trimester: my body fat percentage has dropped 5 points, muscles are up 3 points, water is up 3, bone density down .3 points. I'm very encouraged by…

@SheilAnneSmith Wow. So glad you're doing better now. Sounds like it was very rough for a while. Hey everyone. I just finally caught up reading all the posts. I'm enormously proud of everyone after reading these. Y'all are truly inspiring. I love hearing from everyone. I had to take a break from all the baby stuff for a…

Hi guys. I'm gonna throw my hat in the ring too this month. I've been stuck at 174-171 for months now. I occasionally dip to 169, but it's only when I'm dehydrated. -.-; I keep experiencing the joys of baby getting viruses and passing them to mommy. haha. Right now it's a lovely cold. Goals: 167 Eat less ice cream and…
-
@girlalmighty08 Love the names! Also, it's good to hear you made it through first trimester. Glad your doc got the carpal tunnel under control. Prenatal yoga sounds fun. It's awesome that you're going. I'm sure it'll be a great help to you now and in the future. I had a lot of dizziness too, but it wasn't my iron. It was…

Hey hey, awesome goals, ladies. I started off November at 175. I'm at 174.2 about halfway through. My goals: 1) Lose 2 lbs. 2) Shrink the tummy. 3) Walk. 4) Put in 50 hours a month at work instead of 40. 5) Stick to my budget with my new shrunken maternity pay. (Already blown. Boooo.) 6) Emotional stability! Fight those…
