I'm so sorry about the giant paragraph. I don't know why it did that!

I wanted to quickly update this post. We found out at our 20 week ultrasound (sorry, I haven't been on this site in a while!) that we are expecting a little boy. While it wasn't the result we were swaying for, we feel blessed that this little guy appears to be healthy and that the pregnancy is going well. I can't wait to snuggle him come June! ***
I have posted very little this time aroun...

Thanks for all of your replies! I was relieved to have the rapid strep test come back negative, so I wasn't prescribed antibiotics. I have just a regular sore throat with fluid behind the ears - which is likely making things feel so much worse. To treat, just some Sudafed to clear the fluid (which is okay around ovulation, so I'm assuming it's okay this far out, too?) and ibuprofen for the infl...

I'm on my way to the doctor shortly. My son has strep throat and it appears that I probably do as well - I have all the symptoms, anyway. If I do, I'll be prescribed antibiotics, and if I remember right, these are not great for a girl sway. I expect to ovulate in 3 weeks and have been sticking to my sway and diet so well this past month - how bad would a course of antibiotics be this far out?? I a...

I did a cut-off and conceived a girl after two boys. Besides prayer, I think the biggest factors were diet change and weight loss. I was about 15 lbs. less when I conceived my daughter than when I conceived either of my sons and my diet took a complete 180. Best of luck to you!

My daughter had an EIF on her left ventricle at her 20 week ultrasound, as well. I was terrified. The doctor did refer us on to a perinatologist's office for a level II ultrasound -- procedure, I was told, for their practice. Nothing further was found on the level II, and this really helped to relieve my fears. Needless to say, she was born completely healthy and I was told that the EIF diagno...

I've read that there many different options: Magnesium oxide, chloride, glycinate, gluconate, lactate, citrate, etc. There are liquid forms and pill forms. When TTC girl, which do you take? Which do you avoid? Thanks.

Thank you, Tamara - your answers are always so helpful. And yes, the snow is crazy this year! We're getting tired of shoveling, too!!

Thanks for the reply, Tamara. Neither date would fall in the winter. The first month would be late-May/early-June and while the moon phase would be right, it's predicted to be a chilly spring in MN. The late-June/early-July date would fall into the wrong moon phase, but we're predicted to have a very warm June. While I would prefer to wait until the late-June/early-July date before TTC, I woul...

Hello all. We're thinking of TTC pink this spring/summer. We swayed with #3 and would like to do the same with our fourth. While I plan on doing the diet and supplements the same as last time, I was mapping out my expected ovulation dates and realize that for one month I have the new moon phase in my corner, while the next month I will not. The second month will undoubtedly be warmer, however....

I remember that certain exercise/duration can sway boy. Would adding a cardio (walking) routine six weeks out from TTC work okay?

Just happened to catch your post and wanted to reassure you that everything is probably just fine! My daughter had an EIF on her left ventricle as well. We were sent on for a level II ultrasound that showed no other markers, although I was still a little nervous for the remainder of my pregnancy. She was born completely healthy in March. They are being discovered more and more often because of...

Hi everyone - it's been awhile! We are so busy at our house, but I'm happy to report that we've made the adjustment to 3 quite well. I don't know where the past 9 months have gone - I hate to see them flying by so fast. I hope that everyone else is enjoying this precious time.
I have a question regarding Fertility Friend. I never did sign up when we were trying to conceive our daughter, but...

I'm so sorry to hear this! My oldest had reflux something fierce - it finally resolved around 10 months or so, but he cried A LOT the first several months. My biggest advice would be to ask for a referral to a gastroenterologist as soon as possible. We worked with our pediatrician for months and months and just couldn't get it under control. He was on Nutramigen formul...

congrats!!! I cant wait to have a newborn in the house again too. May I ask why they induce at 37 weeks? Iam 37 weeks today and begging to go into labor...just wondering if at 37 weeks he would be ok and not have to go to the NICU. Did you have Gestational Diab. or something? Again...CONGRATS!

Sorry I'm a little slow to post...
Elise Katherine was born on March 4th - labor was induced at exactly 37 weeks. She was 7 lbs 14 oz and 20 inches long, and is a picture of health! We are so enjoying having a little one in the house again!!

Hope things are going okay tonight, Tam. Sounds like she's doing great size-wise!!
You and I are both due on the 25th, and I have an induction scheduled for the 4th as well - how funny. I don't know if I'm going to make it until then, but we'll see. Lots of contractions and dialated to 4 1/2. Still, baby can't seem to make up her mind, so it's...

1.) March 25th
2.) 34 weeks 6 days
3.) 34 1/2 fundus height, 3 cm. dialated, 60% effaced, -1 position
4.) 30 lbs
5.) Baby is estimated to be a little over 6 lbs.
6.) Soon! Was admitted with pre-term labor last week - I'm now home on bedrest and meds. The doctor is hoping I can make it to 36 weeks and then she'll take me off the meds... ready or not!
