  • >•< mfp mobile ate my post! CD20 here, 5days late to O so bought opks tonight on Amazon and they should be there Tuesday. I'm temping but no opks so idk if I'll ovulate at all this month. We got snow and it's melted, built a fire in the fireplace twice this weekend, so cozy! Pregnant lady tears trigger warning! Sad news,…
  • Liz that's awesome that you've told your family, how awesome and exciting!
  • According to FF, i have no clear ovulation detected and I had a meltdown about it yesterday. "Regular til youre not." Ahhhhhhhh!!!! Next cycle Im buying more opks....temping data has never steered me wrong before though :/
  • Hm. How much time do you have? Mine is complicated, but I'll keep it (kinda) brief here-and keep in mind this is a cycle 10 point of view here, so your feelings may vary. Im a talker and communicator, and I need that to receive love. My husband is not a talker/feeley sharey/emotional person. We make it work, but when I…
  • My goal for December is not to lose my *kitten*, or gain weight. Ive been hanging out around 191-193 and if I end the month there, Ill be fine. December will be hard for me with out a positive, lots of triggers for me and I can feel the emotions simmering just below the surface....and Ive sob cried twice this month already…
  • Lizz, sorry to hear that early pregnancy has been so difficult for you. Just remember its supposed to get better, try and hang in there and do the best you can without beating yourself up over fitness and diet goals-Id say focus on whatever you can eat, staying hydrated and sleeping. In other news, I got my bosses holiday…

So bummed to be back at work today :( why cant I just stay home and enjoy the…
  • 1.Low carb-dont let the sh!tstorm that is my life this year make me eat crap because the next disaster strikes. Eat mindfully at thanksgiving, and be as low carb as possible. Doing pretty well, did eat a bit of carbs but way less than ususal at Thanksgiving! 2. Keep up my stretching need to refocus on this 3. Lose…
  • Cd1 for me too @RhiannonBecks. How was your husband's surprise party? Making my grandmas caramel popcorn tonight yummm!
  • Period is due today, cycle 10. Blarg- what a Monday. Luckily I'm off early tomorrow and off for the rest of the week- yay! I'm already over being at work today and I've only been here an hour and a half!
  • @pezhed you're on Reddit? Are you in tfab or still trying? I was active in those subs awhile ago but no so much anymore
  • @pezhed sorry that you havent ovulated yet :/ that must be so so frustrating. You are temping, right? I have zero hope for this cycle...but next cycle I would find out right before or on our 3 year wedding anniversary! Hoping thats the one, otherwise Im looking at January and thinking February is so close after that...and…
  • omg Aloith, that is too funny! After you announce, you can tell them they interrupted you guys while you were making their grandchild and it almost didnt happen, hahaha! :D That could happen to me as my parents are the next neighborhood over...but they have the code to open the door! They use it to help us out when we need…
  • I typed up a post on my phone twice last night to this thread that got eaten when I pressed 'done' instead of 'post reply' >.< Guess I was pretty tired, ha! So here goes again....Sheila, sorry youre still feeling sick, but hearing bebes heartbeat must have been wonderful! I also love the new profile pic! <3 Kayla, dont be…

  • Ahhhh, Lizz!!! I'm so frigging happy for you congratulations!! Sorry your husband went and told a coworker, but I'm sure he was just so excited! Im out this month, we only tried once this feeling, and has some performance anxiety. Hubby did come at the end of my work trip and jump me before we went out to a romantic dinner…
  • Hey guys, I don't have much free time to lost on mobile, but am reading along. Check my status for updates, I'm keeping myself accountable!
  • Ugh scale read 190 this morning (it was 188.8 for 3 days!!) :( Ive been logging and weighing and staying low carb...I spend Friday night sweating as I cleaned the basement flooring and moved the furniture around (need to share pics) and Saturday raked my entire back yard and turned my compost heap..I was sore the next day.…
  • Pound cake is made up almost entirely of butter. She should have loved it! Katie, why is it harder now?
  • @alioth ....she wont eat the food you make?! What is that about, Im sure youre an awesome cook. My mom lives 2 miles away and so does my MIL, my sister is about 7 miles away and her in laws are super close too, so holidays are always crazy seeing everyone because the in laws dont all come so we have to divide the time…
  • @alioth Thanksgiving is going to be hard, but fortuntaly I wont be hosting, so I wont be harboring all the food! I'll make a turkey for us to nom on for leftovers, and leave out the other leftovers! I might do the usual carbs for the day, but I might bring an alternative item instead? Not sure where my willpower will be…
  • Coming up on FW of cycle 9, and husband is still sore from his car accident last week, and I'm leaving for a business trip in a week. BDing might be tough this round :/ He hasn't gotten his SA done yet-should I be mad about this?-and I'm not temping again this cycle. AF is due the week of thanksgiving, would really like…

  • What I did when I temped is got a basal body thermometer that saved my last temp. Then I'd put it on my phone, temp as soon as it went off, then snooze for a bit before taking it to the bathroom and reading the saved temperature and putting it in my phone app. I got the Mabis brand, it's like $8 on Amazon. No waking up…
  • I would start temping everyday as soon as you wake up. Don’t get out of bed before doing it. Temping is the only way to be 100% sure that you ovulated without confirming it with a doctor. Download Fertility Friend app, its ugly, but tracks loads more data and has been super accurate. You’ll learn to love it. Put your temp…
  • Wow Rhiannon. First of all, huge hugs to you from someone who 100% understands exactly how you feel. This is so hard, but you aren't alone. I sent you a friend request. I would find a new midwife, right now. Don't see that one again. No one should give you that kind of advice, especially not a midwife!! At 5 months ttc I…
  • Katie, sorry to hear Keith is having a rough time. Hope he feels better soon for both of your sakes!
