Hi- I'm great.  I'm actually due June 27th!  Hard to believe, but I didn't do EGS the month I got pregnant.  I had a 4 day cut-off ( because I was heading out of town for a wedding) and with 5 months of not getting pregnant I thought it was next to impossible.  The goods: I did make sure pH was low and day of attempt added lime to Diva after 3 hours to 4.2. At time of attempt there was no EW just creamy.  Kept up the diet and supplements.  Sort of a weak attempt considering how hard core all my other ones were.  I wish it had been with EGS, but I'm really excited to be pregnant after the long haul and I like the time of year and all that stuff. How are you feeling?  I'm just 6 weeks so don't feel pregnant yet...

Annika- That is wonderful!!!! Congratulations!!!!!! What matters is not what you did but how you feel about it. I did EGS but it was not very extreme and I did very little in the diet and hormone department. As long as you have no regrets, that is what matters.

I am feeling really good considering the last three times I was pregnant my first trimester was aweful. I think it has a lot to do with how different my perspective is this time around..I am just so grateful for any symptoms because it means I am still pregnant. I have gained a good five pounds already so I definetly see a difference there. I am also tired, irritable and sick to my stomach most days, but I am not complaining.

I have never been pregnant this time of year. My last three pregnancies all started in march. I love this time of year too. It feels so different to be pregnant this time. And I LOVE Oct-Dec.

 Are you going to find out the sex of your baby? What about the nub theory, have you looked at the ultra-sound prediction forum?

I read your attempt and I have to say i thought it looked great!   I like your perspective on it though.  Now, I don't know what the nub theory is, what is it?.  I just thought it was another expression for parts...We aren't going to find out the sex, but of course I'd love to know! 

I feel great so far, hit 6 weeks today so I think the next two weeks will be really telling.  Have to say I feel like I wake up a little crabby.  Trying not to.  That and boobs are a little sore.  That sick to the stomach feeling is yucky, sorry to hear you have that.  I have to agree, it's a great time to be pregnant and we get to just chill out with it so dark out so early and all that.  The year coming to a close.  It's great.

Congrats on your BFP!  I am eager to see your results, since I plan on using the SU/EW method next year, after I give birth to this little one.

I hope and pray you get the girl you long for.  Congrats again!
