My therapy pages! LOL!


Well,
This is my first journal entry and my third month TTC. The first two months we just went like rabbits and counted the days but this past month we decided to try the sperm meets egg plan. So, I ovulated Oct 15th but of course, chance would have it that we didn't bd NEARLY as much as we should have. I was really annoyed truth be told... OH went out with his mates for a b-day celebration and wound up bringing home a rotten attitude and that was on the 15th. Then on the 16th he felt "pressure" and couldn't... well.... finish. So it wasn't until the 17th that anything remotely productive actually happened!!!! VERY annoying but whats done is done and now I've decided I won't tell him when I'm o'ing so he can't feel pressure... then I'll just seduce the guy.
So, I'm currently 14 dpo and I anticipate my period will come any time now cuz that makes me on CD28. My symptoms are all pointing towards showing up soon. I have...
*big sore bbs
*full tummy (aka looking fat!)
*(TMI) thick white cm
*and something I'm not used to.... LOTS OF EMOTIONS!! I'm up, I'm down, I'm blue, I'm giggly, I'm tired, I'm energetic, I'm CRAZY!

So thats it! I'm having a OK day today. Tired again... but thats fine. I work well when I'm tired. And I'm looking forward to being tired when I finally get my

well... lastnight I was feeling pretty crappy.... my bbs are not as sore... I'm sure is on her way.... I had some slightly pink tinged cm just now and even though I had a headache and can't seem to stay away from the sweets I just don't feel like this is my month.
I broke down and did that test and I'm annoyed that I did that cuz I hate wasting money.
Since I'm not entirely sure when I o'd I can't say for sure what dpo I'm on... hahaha! but since tracking, this is what my cycles have looked like
April - got but MCd on the 28th
may - recovery
June - CD1 on the 6th and lasted 30days
July - CD1 on the 6th and lasted 31days
Aug - CD1 on the 6th and 27days
Sept - CD1 on the 3rd and lasted 29days
Oct - CD1 on the 2nd and I'm on CD30
Not that it tells me anything... (I'm kinda thick when it comes to this stuff) I'm thinking I should be able to tell when I o'd but then I read other posts and I get the impression that you can't really tell unless you use opks so .... on the bright side

I bought a slew of opks and hpts from a lovely lady on BnB and I'm SO excited to get a parcel I can pee on!! I can't wait. And they were cheap! MUCH cheaper than buying them in the store! yea! (I'm such a tighty!)
So even though I'm sure will catch me on this All Hallows Eve I'm excited to get peeing on my cheapies!

The other news... I've booked a vacation!
I'm headed to Prague at the end of the month!! so no alky in prague (or on the plane...I'm extremely afraid of flying but I love travel so its kinda a necessary evil that a drink or two might help)
I'm SO excited to be travelling though!! WEEEEEE
Last time I went on vakay was 1998 so I'm due! hahaa

Hey, how you doing? Has shown herself yet? I woke up to pinky discharge this morning so I'll be seeing her soon That's 10 months for me!
I was excited too about using opks! It is nice to see two lines appear on a stick even it's not a hpt. Enjoy!

showed... just as we were heading out the door for trick-or-treating!!! grrr.....
Oh well.. at least I get to test out my DivaCup! So far... so messy! TMI! nah, its not really THAT bad... just takes a little practice. I've vowed to give it two months to get used to it. Everything new needs a chance to work, right?
Hallowe'en was a BLAST last night. My little pirate did an excellent job, stayed in character and everything! My GOSH the difference btwn last yr and this yr is amazing! Last year I was helping him up the townhouse steps and he was scared of the bigger kids' masks and the decorations... this year... he couldn't get enough... OH, and excuse his social life!!! He was meeting all kinds of little friends on the street and running away from me to go talk to them! HE'S NOT EVEN FOUR!!! My baby is growing up I need another one!! I miss the baby-ness! But he was SO cute! and super happy and that was all I wanted for him.

*Sigh*

It's so true! I like opks... it makes me feel like I have some kind of control over my fertility (even if it IS false!) 10ths! You're a strong woman! I'm going batty at 3rd month actively trying... I graduated from what happens..happens, to lets get serious about this babymaking stuff really fast! I'm too impatient

My partner is 35 and I'm 27 but he smokes and is on pain killers for his wrist (compound fracture... YUCK!) But he smokes A LOT less than he used to. He's down to 1-3cigs/day and then skipping some days too. He takes Champix to curb the cravings. Hopefully there is nothing wrong with his swimmers from all this because I get PG VERY easily (past relationship) and this is proving to take a bit more effort it seems.
