Friday Confessions/Randoms/AWs

[nevafaye]

I always pee on myself while trying to go in a cup. ALWAYS.

I think DH had pity, makin' a baby sex with me last night and I was okay with it.

That's all I got, anyone else? This place is too slow!

[sunflower22]

Lol!! Ok maybe you can help me w an idea if you're bored. So, my H was really romantic a lot this week, made a bubble bath, nice dinner, etc. It was very much appreciated. Today he not so subtly hinted that he wanted to see what I could come up w to be different/exciting. Basically were tired of TTC being boring/scheduled and are trying to spice things up. What should I do? I feel pressure to impress now and I'm drawing a blank!! Lol, any ideas?

Sunflower, when I want to spice things up I get some new lingerie -- slip, babydoll, corset, or bra and panty set. It always does the trick:-)

This would probably be the easiest thing to do lol! We have plans tonight so I'll see if I have time to swing in somewhere super quick on my way home.

[nevafaye]

Can of whip cream would probably work in a pinch, lol.

[winecheery]

For fun, I've laid out three little outfits on the bed for my DH, all their own kind of naughty/playful with a note that says, "Choose one" and he picks the lingerie/ensemble I prance around in :-)

[prairieglitter]

I am so so happy it's FRIDAY!

Going out tonight for a Margarita.

Looking forward to an appointment with a new psych doc next week to hopefully get myself straightened out. (Backstory: been on Lexapro for-ev-er and due to some crazy stress the past six months, I feel like it has stopped working. Also going to be TTC soon and want something safer).

I hope you all have relaxing weekends!

[winecheery]

Oh and for a confession hmmmmm....possibly flameful...

I think a tiny part of me honestly thought I'd get pregnant cycle one, because I'm successful at everything I put my mind to, and I kind of get what I want a lot, and I'm "ready", you know??

I am fully aware that this kind of logic does not apply to fertility, and that I sound like a bitch and yeaaaahh.

But there it is. I am CD27, no signs of AF. Whatsoever. But I don't want to test yet either.

Waaah.

I thought this, but not just a tiny part. I was totally convinced. My mom got pg with both me and my sister first cycle and I thought surely I would too. I don't even know if my mom's fertility is relevant or why I thought this. lol

It's a comfort to know I'm not entirely bsc then, or at least I'm not alone if I am!!

I was the same way. My mom had 3 kids easily. H's mom had 2 easily. Every sibling on my side and my husbands side has a least one "oops baby". My husband and I wait 6 years until were totally ready for the responsibility, and here we sit. 1 year of TTC w no luck and endometriosis. Lol anyyyyways sorry for the tangent but I hope you are lucky and it works on the first try!

Same! I don't know anyone IRL that has struggled with IF (at least that would have told me, so mom/MIL/SILs, etc.)

In fact my SIL/BIL got an oops pg after BIL had a testicle removed due to cancer.

I just assumed b/c they scare the crap out of you as a kid that as soon as I wanted one, it'd just happen!

Granted, we're only on cycle 2, but it is a bit frustrating (can't imagine what it's like for a year+, you are a strong lady!)

Why thank you! It's fun. Husband involvement!

And I'm sorry about the endo troubles, and the year long wait w ttc

Thanks for the encouragement but I think I know deep down I'm not gonna be a first cycle bfp gal...I just hope you're right and it's soon. For both of us. For ALL of us!

[thoseareradishes]

I saw a college kid smoking a pipe this week. It was bizarre.

That's all I got.

I feel the same way too. I hope that all it takes is one cycle, but I know it could potentially take longer than I want it too. It's so hard when you just want it to happen as soon as you decide you are ready for a baby. I assume since we are both pretty healthy and have been having sex in my fertile window that it should be that simple, but I know it's not. I'm already feeling impatient, lol. I'm enjoying the BD, but man it's exhausting!

Another Random: I ordered some Wondfos and Pre-seed, and they arrived yesterday. Left the box of pre-seed out, and caught my husband reading the side of the box with this weird, kind of creeped out look and odd smile on his face. It was priceless.

[mimosas]

I thought of another confession over the weekend! Every cycle I go to a pregnancy due date calculator and figure out when the EDD will be in case I am pg. This is crazy enough, but I live in an insanely hot part of the country and if I don't get pg this cycle or next, I could be 8-9 months during the hottest time of the year (95+ every.single.day). Noooo!

I just did this. And I would have a spring baby if I get a bfp in the next week or so. (doubtful, I only have obscure symptoms and tiredness at best; nothing legit I fear) I always wanted a spring baby

FWIW, I didn't have symptoms until after a positive test.

Really?? Cuz I feel like EVERYTHING I read says that at least their boobs hurt or something. I'm tired...AF is a couple days late...that's all I got. I men I could dig, but let's be real.

So you really had no symptoms? Why/when did you test?

I tested bc I'm that person that has no patience whatsoever. I bought cheapies from amazon and tested every single cycle. My first positive this pregnancy was at 9DPO and I tested bc I always test

I did have symptoms towards week 4 (I honestly don't remember how many days after my BFP that the symptoms set in). Sore boobs and fatigue hit a few days after my BFP and the nausea didn't hit until 6w on the dot.

I was incredibly surprised to see the second line pop up. I was on my 11th cycle and getting ready to make the appt to get a referral to a RE.

That's so interesting, thank you. Huh. I think I'm a lot stupider about all this than I ever realized.

Well I have very little patience too. Someone suggested I wait til cd40 since this is my first cycle and I have no strong symptoms (besides being tired). Wise advice that is feeling harder and harder to listen to. That's ten more daaaays! I might not last

Glad you finally got lucky!

[berbles]

"if you're pregnant enough to have symptoms, you're pregnant enough to test positive."

I've heard that one several times.

[nevafaye]

As long as you don't think it'll send you over the edge to get "false negatives," I say test away. I wouldn't wait for CD40 (especially because that would be a REALLY long cycle and you would/should theoretically be able to get a positive around the time of your expected period, if not before, which for me would be 13 days before that).

[sunflower22]

Test! Test! Test!

[winecheery]

See my new thread. Test is not needed. waaaah

[sunflower22]

Sorry

[winecheery]

me too
