Updates!
I feel like the group has been so quiet lately. How has everyone been? Where is everyone in their cycles or pregnancies? I'm doing great. I'm 37 weeks 5 days and just waiting for Athena to make her appearance. It was a long wait getting to this point and I can't believe it's almost over. This is my last pregnancy so it's a bit bittersweet. I miss you all so please update!
How often is your little one feeding ebonyree? I just had to reduce night feeds to get a regular cycle. My little one is a bit older (14 mths) but we are still feeding day 1-2 times and an early morning feed and I've got a regular cycle so you could try for both? I was up at least 4 times a night before we gently cut night feeds down, I didn't think she'd allow it but it actually only took a couple of weeks and she's still a happy bunny ? xx
Wow ur baby girl is almost here ?. awesome!!
Well I've been losing hope of getting a BFP. So I haven't been checking when I ovulate anymore after my last miscarriage. I take the macaroot 3 times a day still with my prenatal (one day). I stop taking the red raspberry leaf capsule didn't felt like they were doing anything. I try not to think about it and just enjoy my daughter whom is now 26months and I'm starting to feeling like I'm ready to wean her off completely. My daughter feel differently lol I just pray the process isn't stressful ?
Natalie: why are your hopes dropping?? I have a friend who is now 5 months pregnant and her first symptom was extreme tenderness and nausea while nursing. My fingers are super crossed for you too! Good luck for your race and for your test in the am!! Keep us posted ;)
Sallee: I can only imagine! We wait so long to get pregnant, and then the last couple of months creep along...and you end up just READY to have that baby! Can't believe it's getting so close for you now :) woo hoo!
I'm feeling like labor is near for me. I'm excited and nervous. All of the unknowns with ttc and pregnancy are exciting and nerve-wracking.
I agree! It's impossible not to get my hopes up! I always look up when my due date would be which then gets me dreaming! The past couple days I've felt like I was having some early pregnancy symptoms and today I really don't feel anything except nipple pain when my son nurses and I CANNOT handle him "twiddling" with the other side. My hopes are dropping. I'm going to do an FRER test tomorrow morning because I'm running a 7.4 mile race tomorrow evening and it would be beneficial to know before I run. Good luck kalan!! I'm praying for ya!! Keep us posted! Don't disappear again! ;)
Hi everything has finally seemed to have settled for me now my little one isn't feeding as much through the night. My ovulation day changed from day 10 to 12 after adding more temps to my chart... my husband was also away so we didn't BD as much as we'd hoped but we did BD the day before my later ovulation still so I'm hoping the timing was ok still! So I'm now 5DPO and waiting patiently... I forgot how hideous the TWW is!! Fingers crossed, good luck and baby dust to everyone. Good luck with your pending birth Salle and hope it all goes smoothly x
Yay sallee! I can't believe you have come so far :) so happy for you!
Natalie: my fingers are crossed for you! For a wonderful birthday present ;)
As for me, I think I've superstitiously been keeping my mouth shut in hopes of not jinxing anything lol. My first ppaf was two months ago and my cycle was 37 days. This cycle looks as though it will be around 29 days. Me and hubby just so happened to bd two days before I had a + opk which was awesome timing! Once I got the + we bd'd 1-2 x/ day for 6 days. Currently I'm on cd23, and day 4/5 DPO. I'm hoping this will be our month. I don't want to get my hopes up too much BC it took us 10 mos. to conceive our son (although we had no idea what we were doing as far as timing. Thought everyone ovulated on cd14 but I discovered 7 mos in that I didn't until CD 35 or so!). So anywho, hoping our better understanding of ovulation timing will be on our side with this one. In one week we will know!
Best of luck to both of you mamas, and to all the other mommys on here!!!
I hope you get a nice, dark bfp on your birthday! Make sure to use fmu so you can be sure.
I'm 10 DPO. I took a HPT yesterday and today, not FMU, just on a whim and both BFN. It's the internet cheapies and I have no idea how sensitive they are so I'm trying to keep my hopes up bit not too high. My birthday is Sunday and my period is due Tuesday. I'm having some increased sensitivity to nursing like a sharp pain on the nipple and a pulling or tugging feeling behind the nipple in the breast. I'm peeing a lot and having hot flashes. My fingers are crossed but I don't know...
Good luck!
