Re: 16w3d u/s ob said 90% girl, but my spina bifida test came back with elevated AFP???

Threey's: I am so devastated for your loss, and I imagine you are feeling a lot of sadness and anger. I will be thinking and praying for you. Please PM me if you need anything! What a frustrating journey ;(

Re: For those of you that have more than 1 girl...

One of my girls was totally different. Craved meat, protein, and she had a low heartbeat. Thought she must be a boy!

Re: SU/MSU Buddy Group- February **EGS Stats on page 1**

Tamara- you mentioned practicing with egg yolk. We will try that this week. Curious if the egg yolk as a high PH as well and could confuse the Y's?

Re: SU/MSU Buddy Group- February **EGS Stats on page 1**

Hi girls, my SU/MSU turned into a TBM today due to my sample mixing. We tried a new TT and I think that was the problem. Does anyone know why we leave the IC in for 90 minutes during a TBM attempt?

Re: TTC Blue Crew - Feb. 2010

Does anyone know why we only leave the IC in for 90 minutes in a TBM attempt?

Re: TTC Blue Crew - Feb. 2010

Hi BC, had my attempt today. Went from MSU/SU to completely mixing and turning into a TBM. Pretty sure half the sample spilled out of the IC. Just don't feel that this month was meant to be for us! Thought it was weird that the only two months my ovulation was hitting under a New Moon I O'd early. I really think my body would rather O in a Full Moon. Anyways, sounds like a lot of you are at...

Re: TTC Blue Crew - Feb. 2010

Hi BC! I have no idea if I am ovulating or if this is a fake surge. Got a +OPK this afternoon, but now my cervix is low and hard and a -OPK. I think that the full moon is trying to regulate my cycle perhaps?

15 Feb 2010 2:45 AM

How short can a surge be?

Am wondering if anyone can help me. I got two +OPK's at 1pm and 3pm today. Very early for me in my cycle (same with last month). I just tested again at 6pm and there was no line and it seems my cervix is low and hard. Did I have a super short surge and already ovulated, or is this a false alarm? Thanks.

Re: Did you meet your mother's expectations as a daughter?

I am not girly-girl or subdued at all, but I feel my sisters and I have all met her expectations. We all talk to her daily, do girly outings, tell her everything, etc. We all seem to get our way with choosing our parents for holiday and vacations. I guess that is my expectation for having a DD is the bonding vs the accessories that go with a girl. My MIL has all boys and I think the bond versu...

Re: SU/MSU Buddy Group-Jan 2010

Sorry LUV about your news.  You seem to have such a positive outlook and I wish you the best for this next cycle.My first attempt at SU/MSU resulted in BFN.   Today is CD1 for me too.  First time I didn't get pregnant first month of trying for a DC, but knew the odds were smaller with extreme swaying.  Praying for successful February for all of us!

Re: TTC Blue Crew - Feb. 2010

 Hi BC,Tested yesterday and it was (-) and AF showed up this morning.  I'm out and on to February [:(]

Re: TTC Blue Crew - Feb. 2010

 Hi BC! Hope everyone is well.  Looks like we have lots of upcoming attempts and some fun new members!   Haven't tested yet.  Nervous!  Maybe this afternoon [pray]

Re: TTC BlueCrew - January 2010!!

I did some research to my question above and I guess this could be an answer (hopeful). . . . . . . "During ovulation, the cervix becomes high and soft. It will stay like this from about 3 days to 1 week. After a women is done ovulating, the cervix lowers and becomes more firm. If, t...

Re: TTC BlueCrew - January 2010!!

I know this is an OWT but I think that there is a correlation between lower HCG levels when pregnant with a boy, so maybe that is why you haven't gotten a strong +HPT yet. Although, a faint line is a line!

Re: TTC BlueCrew - January 2010!!

Hi BC. I think it is pretty clear when I ovulated based on my temps, cervix, and OPK. However, this morning I was having some lower back pain and decided to check my cervix. It was very HIGH and SOFT! I took an OPK and it was (-). My temp already went up so I doubt this is ovulation, but curious if (a) my body is releasing another egg, or if (b) this is normal. Any thoughts? It has been alm...

RPGPY5: your chart looks promising!

Re: TTC BlueCrew - January 2010!!

Great idea! Wow so cool you have the charts linked on there. Are we the only three doing attempts right now?

Re: What's the MOST significant change you made when TTC?

I agree with this! Reading this post confirmed that I dread those foods that she loves (potato, tomato, banana). Although, I haven't conceived yet, I think that this is the biggest change for me. We tried timing with last DD and shows that girls can be conceived on ovulation day!

Re: TTC BlueCrew - January 2010!!

Thanks! I won't test until CD11 since my luteal phase is always around 11 days.[/quote] Sounds good,I am testing on 11dpo too...only 3.5days! [/quote] So soon!! Someone needs to have a BFP in January and it must be you!

Re: SU/MSU Buddy Group-Jan 2010

Hi buddy group! Our attempt was perfect! After we put the DD's to bed my cervix was still high and soft. I am not sure how much EWCM I had since I have been wearing an Instead Cup all day with EW. However, our sort was PERFECT! We discarded the top 20% and then looked at the next section and they were all fast straight swimmers. So, put in IC and inserted. I was able to have the big O twice...

Re: TTC BlueCrew - January 2010!!

Hi BC! We had our attempt tonight (EGS) and are really happy with how it all went! I am trying to find the list of supplements I am allowed to take in the 2WW? I know folic acid is a must but what else is encouraged? Or, could someone direct me towards the link? Thanks so much and many prayers needed!!

Re: TTC BlueCrew - January 2010!!

[quote user="Floridagal"] Giraffe, it is kinda difficult to say when you actually started your surge because you only took one test.  If you had tested earlier in the day around noon or one o'clock pm and it was negative, then we would know that your first positive at night was a good one.  Check your cervix and also if you are still having EWCM.  Try to test again today to see if ...
