SU/MSU Experimenters Buddy Group-July 2009

I know exactly what you're saying Luvr4boyz.  I do want them to be happy.  My dad is the type of person that just can't survive on his own...he's not going to handle this well.  I don't want us to be caught up in the middle either or, most importantly, my boys.  I was trying to keep things to myself today...the boys were playing nicely together, chasing after each other with cars.  Then all of a sudden, they stopped and asked Why are you so sad mommy?  I knew then that I wasn't hiding it well.  So, the kids & I worked on a project together and had a nice time. 

I understand about having a degree in Psych...mine is a Bachelor's.  A therapeutical approach is always better with a family member.  I'm sorry about your brother.  My bil has been there too...very scary situation to deal with.  Things are just not going well today, are they?!  

I would love to get a bfp.  I can't believe that I haven't even tested yet!  I don't even have a test around.  I'm thinking that if I don't start by Sunday evening, then I'll go and get one on Monday morning.  I'm really trying hard to not test.  I've got plenty of things to keep myself busy for most of the time until then. 

I am sorry that this is happening to you!!  I am also sorry that my previous post was so jumbled.  I was just typing with no thought process involved.  I also had screaming babies, so my sentences just ramble on!!

Anyhow, I can't believe how good you are about NOT testing!! I think it does help NOT having any tests around.  Good luck this weekend...hopefully AF will not show.  I hope things with your parents work out for the best!!!

Good luck to all of us in the 2WW and for all the ladies who have upcoming experiments!!!

Sorry to hear about what's going on PD and L4B...hard stuff, you have a lot to take on right now. 

My AF played a really mean trick on me this time.  It came a day late...my LP was 11 days instead of 10 this time which is a good thing in that regard, but I've been so depressed today about it.  I was so excited yesterday every hour it didn't come, had a little spotting which never happens for me so naturally I was thinking "implantation spotting?!" and was starting to believe it.  I'm sad, I was so ready to be pregnant.

PD & L4Bs - Sorry you are both going through this. No advice I am afraid, just that I feel for you both.

Hopeful - Sorry AF came. Remember that the chances of getting PG are slimmer when TTC pink, so just remember what the goal is and get ready to try again!

Thanks, I know I need to snap out of it, I'm just sad...

I've decided I'll let myself be down today and just feel it with the promise to myself to re-focus, re-energize and try to make this as stress free as I can when the time comes.  I think I might ease up on the diet though.  Just a little, but take the supplements religously. My pH is naturally pretty low.   I think I'll be real carefull to make sure I don't have a lot going on like last time.  I think I overheated the first batch and had guests here for the second so couldn't do it the way I wanted....I've learned to much from everyone this past month so that will help a lot.

thanks everyone for the support. It's nice to know that I have people to talk with. 

hopefull2009~ I am so sorry. It really sucks when af shows.  I completely understand about trying to refocus...I'm trying but it's been a little difficult.    I am a little off today...I dropped a whole cup of milk this morning ...the kids know that I don't care when accidents happen so their reaction was a little funny.  It was so cute. 1st response was-are you okay mom?  I said yeah.  Next response was "okay, let's get a towel.  SO cute!  Growing up in my household, I would've been in major trouble for that one.  It was such a small thing but it brought a smile to my face. 

Aww that is super cute, funny you spilled milk because so did I!  I was driving to work this morning thinking about it all and drinking my vanilla rice milk when woops all over my pants.  I thought to myself- perfect.  Yeah, I'm a little off too ...

Very cute ladies....I will be careful with the milk today!!!!

Just wanted to say good luck to all the ladies who are ttc this month!

I will pray for us all and keep FX.

I am now officially in the 2 WW!!!  My sway did not go as planned (you can read it in the gold section) but I am praying for our miracle!

I'm pretty sure that af is on her way.  My temps have been dropping... I think af will arrive by Monday at the latest unless I have a huge rise unexpectantly tomorrow.  Right now, I'm not surprisingly too sad because it would've meant that I had 2 of my kids' birthdays pretty close which I'm not a huge fan of...so I'm okay either way.

FX AF doesn't show up for you! Its hard when you think a new baby is going to be born around another birthday or christmas, or the start of the school year. It never seems like a good time to either be born or PG as there is always something going on!

Hi Ladies, thought i'd check in to give you an update! Looks like i may not be getting the chance to join this group again I am roughly 10 or 11dpo and have had three days of BFP's!!!!! We were NOT trying and were using the withdrawal method which has seen us good for 8 years so did not think anything of it. So...i had an almost perfect boy attempt and i'm totally gutted and feel a real fool! Ph went up to its natural state of high 7-8!  completly off the diet and all supplements. Its was right on Ovulation. Both Dh and I has loads of caffine. I had a big O! It had been about 2 or 3 days since DH had last released!.Everything...perfect for a boy apart from it being a result of tiny amount of pre cum but that was prob just full of super fast boys! Oh i'm really sad about it. 9 months of hard work doing the SU and all other factors- doing them the most perfect i could so that if i did fall i would be at peace that i had done the very very best i could and now this! just seems unfair. I'm 99% sure its a boy- don't see how it could not be. Haven't told DH yet! Sorry for the moan . xx

 Anna Bell~ Congratulations. That must've been a shock... dh and I ALWAYS use the pull-out method.  Or "pull and pray" as we called it when we were teenagers.   There is hope that a girl made her way in there!!  Hang in there!
