1. CD16 First cycle off of BC. TTA for a couple of cycles off BC before TTC. 2. Doc advised waiting a couple of cycles off BC before TTC and I am following this advice but I am super anxious to start TTC and have been a little obsessed over learning all about pregnancy and what to expect. 3. Boy! H and I both want a boy and are somewhat in denial about the possibility of a girl. We always say HE when referring to our future child.
1) Where are you in your cycle/ttc journey? Cycle 5 , CD4
2) Any AW/Vents? I feel really gross today. I hate my period, not even cuz it means no pregnancy AGAIN, but just because it makes me feels so damn gross. I'm spending too much money Chsirtmas shopping, but I still need a bfn gift to ME!
3) QOTW - (I think MMMs is stealing our ?s, lol) Do you want a girl or boy? (You have to pick, no smug pg women response!) But I'm smug as shit! "I am disinclined to acquiesce your request"...but for the sake of the game, I think I would like a boy first...then a girl. I'll be thrilled with whatever I'm granted! Please universe??
wine, have you tried a menstrual cup? They're amazing. i go all day long (and night) not even remembering I have my period. no pantiliners, no leaks, no smells, no trash, no hiding tampons while you go to the bathroom. And I only have to empty twice a day (that parts not as pretty, but it only takes a minute). Not sure if that's what you meant by "feeling gross" but I'll share anyway : ).
1) Cycle 4 CD 40 2) I'm having another freakishly long cycle. Not only are the BFNs upsetting me (another one this morning), but it's really concerning that all of a sudden my cycles are so long. I thought it was the temping last month, but I didn't do that this cycle....really bummed about this. 3) I always thought I wanted a boy first, but this past year I keep thinking about girls. Even had a very vivid dream about having a girl.
No, someone else on here suggested this once, and I had never heard of such a thing until then! I don't know if I'm that brave I think I'd panic about a leak more than anything else, which obvs is silly cuz people use them without troubles.
I'm sorry about your long cycle...that would be positively infuriating for me

1) Where are you in your cycle/ttc journey? TTC#2 for 3 years. CD31 11 dpo
2) Any AW/Vents? It's still early, but I got a BFN this morning.
3) QOTW - (I think MMMs is stealing our ?s, lol) Do you want a girl or boy? (You have to pick, no smug pg women response!) I really don't know. I go back and forth. Part of me wants a boy because I don't know if we will be able to have #3 and I would like to have at least one of each. However, I would also really like DD to have a sister. Plus I have a crapload of girl clothes. I wanted a girl with #1. I guess if I had to choose I would say girl.
1.) Still waiting for CD 1 post m/c. It should be any day now...
2.) I normally have a 26-28 day cycle. Foolishly, optimistically, I POAS last night on CD 26. I thought seeing a BFN would make me less anxious for my period, but it's just made things worse somehow.
3.) I want a girl. I have no idea what to do with a boy. Plus, I have 2 girls already so there would be very little to buy. But really, I just want a sticky baby.

Blindy- we talked and he said that he doesn't like the thought of baby making sex. He says its just weird.
I'm only home for 7-10 days at a time and then I'm gone for 2-3 weeks. So I figured he would love the sex while I'm home. hopefully we will figure this out.

I've never had a leak. But you can always wear a pantiliner for the first cycle if you're nervous, I think I did. They're also great for traveling.

I'm glad you guys talked! As long as you have ruled out the fact that he doesn't want to TTC, I don't see the harm in not talking about your cycles with him unless he asks, yeno? I try to keep it as natural as possible.. let him think I'm just experiencing a spike in sex drive. Sure, he might figure it out after a few days, but at least you can get a few times in with no pressure/weirdness!
1) Where are you in your cycle/ttc journey? 70 days on this cycle
2) Any AW/Vents? see other post. Also I hate my job and I am going to kill someone!
3) QOTW - (I think MMMs is stealing our ?s, lol) Do you want a girl or boy? (You have to pick, no smug pg women response!) Girl. I want my DH to have a daddys girl. I also think those little dresses are so damn cute!
