Esmeralda, I feel ya on the opks. I'm on cd11 and I usually O on cd13 but mine are completely -, no test line at all. Yesterday I had EWCM and today nothing, completely dry so now I have no idea what's going on. I have some pre-seed so that's not a problem but I have no idea if I'm Oing or not. Dh and I are just going to bd every other day and I'll keep trying the opks. Carolina, I had no side effects until now, looks like the clomid is drying up my CM though. Schar, I so hope you O'd hon. Just try to relax and enjoy your 2ww. Mama, yay on your af, congrats! ↑

Esmerald your temps and everything seem like mine Hey cycle buddy lol hope this is a good thing Our temps being like this! I'm a trying Jessica good luck! ↑
I haven't been taking my temp, but today was my last day on clomid. We're having second thoughts though. We're going to try to get a home soon. We just went to get prequalified for a mortgage. We'll hear back from them tomorrow though. If we don't get a house, I don't know if we will keep trying or not. ↑
I'm starting to get excited though. I really am. We're trying to get a house, we're plnning another baby, there's just so much to look forward to! Although, i had such few and such mild side affects from the clomid that i wonder if it worked. ↑
hey well my temps are really confusing me, this morning it was 97.98 again it sounds like i have actualy o'd then, the difference should be 0.4 isn't it, so mine actualy jumps with 1 degree, but i didn't have any o pains this time, exept the temps and the ewcm, i hope i did o so that means i am in the 2ww! i will bd again tonight to make sure! so today it is cd 17 wish me luck! carolina if you are not sure if you still want a baby why don't you wait, so that your life is in order, and you have time to sit down and think about it, and by the way, one of my friends in holland has given birth to guess what TWINS!!!!!!!!!!!! yes she had 2 boys, but they were born very prematurely, 11 weeks early, so they are in the nicu, the first twin only weighed in at 2 pounds, but he is allright, but the second twin is in worse condition, he has heart problems and his kidneys are not working well, she is a very stubborn girl you know, i feel so sorry for the twins, because she knew she was pregnant, and smoked 2 packets of sigarets a day, and continue drinking, i don't know what to think anyway i hope that the people who want twins will get them,and those who don't want any, don't get them, if live was only so easy! anyway take care all! ↑
OMG Esmerald I think I O'd yesterday or today if my bbt jumps tomorrow it was 96.58 today 96.8 but I am almost sure it will jump tomorrow and we will be 1-2 days apart it would be cool if we both get bfps good luck to u and me!!!!! ↑
hey schar i am praying for you! i am now sure that i must have o'd because i went to the askdramy website, and checked out the fertile days calculator and it actualy said that i should have o'd yesterday or today, so yes i pray both of us will get our bfp's this month! my due date would be febuary 6th, so good luck to you and me! xxoxxo baby dust xxoxxoo ↑
esmeraldausiahon, I understand a little of what your friend was going through with the smoking. I've smoked since I was 12. Regularly since 18(27 now). I wasn't able to completely quit with my daughter(2yr4m), but she turned out fine. My family has a history of allergies and a heart murmur(even teh non smokers). She has both, but otherwise fine. I've been trying to quit this time for several months with no luck. I can hold off until about 3 pm, but go nuts after that. I also keep myself busy so I only smoked 8 the other day! down from 30 normally(pack and a half). I'll be happy if I can get to 5 a day. I have an occasional sip of alcohol, but no more. Doctor said a couple glasses of wine per week(not in same day) would be fine and good for me, but to drink them slowly~sip. I'm sorry that she wasn't able to quit or slow down and that her babies are suffering for it. Thanks for the story tho. My resolve was weakening and now I have more reason to try and quit! ps, cravings are worse at the pc so I won't be on as much. Good luck all! ↑
We'll have our prequalification by this weekend. So, we'll know whether we want to proceed with baby making or not. :D If we get a yes for the house we want, then we'll go ahead. If not, we'll wait. ↑
Jessicab3 - How are you doing? I'm doing okay just taking it slow this month I do go and see my gyn on june 3 my 40th birthday I will let you know how that goes. Krissy68 ↑

Well its so good to see everyone is hopefull. About the smoking thing. I was a smoker but with all 4 of my children I managed to stop smoking by my 6-7 week. Then would start and stop. I am currently not smoking because I want ttc. It is more dangerous to smoke in the 1st trimester then any other because that is when everything devolps. After that it just grows and becomes stronger. Also when you smoke the chemicals in the ciggerettes cut the nutrients in food in half. So even though you may be eating healthy you are still only getting half of the nutrients because the chemicals break them down. (thats how /why babies born to smokers have low birth weight.) So use mind over matter! ALso the longer you deny the craving the less it comes and the less intense they get. You just have to let your self go crazy. The physical addition leaves in 3 days after that it is all mental. I believe smoking is so addictive because people use as a way to relieve stress. I believe it helps calm people because they are breathing so deep. SO cut some straws into the size of cigs and suck the air in just as if you were smoking and slowly exhale it will really work!. Carolina good luck to you. I still haven't changed my mind. I am so excited. I can't get preggers soon enough. Schar i am hoping you and esmarld get pg this month! Good luck to you both and you are seriously in my prayers! Krissy this could still be your month. So don't give up and also have prayed for you. Please take care everyone! ↑
mama4, thank you so much! I've used straws before, but never thought to cut them to cigarette length. I bet that will help. Tomorrow will be a busy day so I'll start that on Sunday.
hey guys cd 19 think I may have o'd yesterday temps from 96.8 to 97.34 think it may take one more day before they jump but went up by .54 good luck esmerald see ya guys ↑
hey gals well i have to say also that i was a smoker, i smoked since age 12, and i was 18 when i got pregnant with my first child, and i smoked about 3 packets of tobacco a week ( about 30 sigarets a day) and i was also addicted to mariuana, but when i met my husband, and got pregnant by him, i stopped everything, without help! luckily for me he was a non-smoker, so made it easier for me to quit. i also drinked a lot, but when i found out i was pregnant i stopped all, for the baby's sake, i was young and stupid, but i realised that the babies health was more important than the addiction and that you cut down is fair enough, but that girl got drunk everyday, and she didn't cut down on the smoking at all, she just continue to do what she liked to do, as if she was not even pregnant, that hurts me, so i don't want to offend any of you, because i know that all of you want babies very much, and i praise that so good luck to all of you and hope that you all will get your bfp's take care all ↑

esmarld that is so sad and very selfish of the girl. Did she even want her baby? Well Carolina what did you find out? whats your plans. Schar that is sooooooooooooo awesome u O'd! So just a couple weeks til we find out. I Jenifer you r welcome. I know it is rough,, but vision that u give birth to healthy baby smoking (which many do), then vision in a few years dieing and having to leave that child (which even more people do) and how the child would feel. It may help also. I don't want to ever have to leave my children on this earth alone! Just don't give in to the craving. Keep yourself busy. Pick up a new habit. Instead of smoking for 10mins scrap book or croche when you want to smoke as well. It will work you just have to want it bad enough it has to be in your mind you are quiting! I believe you can do it girl. For me 1st day of clomid not really any side effects. CD3 and so excited! ↑
ok today is 1 or 2dpo not sure but can't wait to test!!!!! I O'd I believe on cd 18 today is cd 20 my temp went from 97.34 to 97.9 woooohooo!!!! Baby dust to us all!!! where is everyone in their cycle or pregnancy? ↑
10 wks 3 days, prenatal appt on the 20th, doc is worried so I hope all is ok. Infection in lymph nodes, but on safe antibiotics. They make me sick so its hard to take them. I have an abcess above a tooth so that could cause problems as well. Ugh! YAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYY schar! Only a few weeks and you'll get to test! Good luck all! ↑
hey gals how are you all? i am cd 20 and i think 4 dpo, i am having false symptoms, i hate it! since this morning i am having some tummy aches, i don't know what it is, but i know one thing i am not going to test! i know it is way to early to test, but it just feels like implantation (again), i am so tired, because i just know it is way to early, but the thing is i want it so badly! hey schar, YAY!!!!!!, finally you o'd! in a couple of weeks you can test!!!! i know we are really close, so i am praying for you! i didn't use anymore opk's, because i didn't have the money, ( they just sent the electricitybil of 300 dollars) but i know when i have o'd so i pray now that i am pregnant! good luck to all of you! ↑
i just don't know what is going on with me, i am so unsettled, the pain in my stomach is feeling like pre-mensus i took a shower, and it just don't want to go away, has anyone had c-sections be4? i had 3 but everytime i want to get up my scar is tugging and pulling, i hope this means good, anyway i will keep you guys posted, jj wow, 10 weeks already?! i hope all is going well for you and the baby, i hope the abses will go away and the infection you have will go away to, praying for all of you take care esmeralda ↑
