Cycle 6/Month 8

So I started spotting last night (5/31) it was very very light so I didn't think that much of it. But I woke up this morning with AF.. UGH WTF? why can't I fucking get pregnant.. stupid stupid... SO NOW we're on MONTH 8. and cycle 6 (I hate long cycles can't get anything right)

Well I got a ClearBlue Easy Fertility Monitor (CBEFM) so I'll be using that this cycle. I reset the memory and started it up this morning so that's all set to go.. hopefully that works because I'm seriously starting to lose hope that it'll ever happen..

In the 2WW

Wow I haven't written in over a month.. lol.. well guess time to update. lol.

Well I went back through my old charts and undiscarded the temps and removed my user overrides and guess what.. I've never O'd.. I've only been charting for 3 months.. but wow that sucked to see.. BUT.. according to my temps as of right now, I O'd 5 days ago!. woohoo!!! I'm so excited.. hopefully I really did O, my temps stay up and I'm pregnant! that would be awesome.. but I'm not getting my hopes up..

I'm making an appt this week with my *new* PCM to talk about TTC and everything thats been going on.. I want to be proactive, esp with our medical issues. KWIM?. Hopefully she'll tell me some good news..

Ah I've also ordered a ClearBlue Easy Fertility Monitor for this next cycle (Cycle 6/Month 8).. Hopefully that will more accurately tell me if I'm Oing, since I never get a positive OPK..

Well more updates when either AF shows or I get a BFP (more than likely when AF shows though)

Cycle #5/Month 7

Ugh AF reared her ugly face today... wasn't really expecting her but when we had sex I bled so I knew she was on her way.. and I was right... this sucks.. my temps were really good this month and I was getting my hopes up.. ugh I knew I shouldn't have done that..Well good things are that our baby wouldn't share his/her bday with a major holiday and Jeff's bday.. so I guess that's a good thing..

Top it all off.. some chick who got her kids taken away from her for being an unfit mother .. just found out shes prego with kid #6.. AND she tricked her husband into it.. *sigh* makes me sad when it's so easy for nasty people like that to get pregnant but Jeff and I are having difficulties.

Well I'm still going to do my plan for this month.. Recap:: I plan on temping vaginally since I believe that'll be more accurate for my body.. I'm also going to order some more PreSeed and I also have OPK's so I'll start using those on CD 15 or 16. We'll also be BDing every other day since Jeff has a low sperm count and we want to give him time to replenish his supplies (lol).

Also Jeff is going for another SA on Monday.. hopefully his results are better than last time *fingers crossed* Oo I almost forgot.. We ordered some Maca Root for him too.. in powder form.. so hopefully that does some good too... I really just want to be pregnant already.. It's so depressing.. I don't know how ladies who have been trying forever handle it from month to month.. Ya'll are my heroes!

*Update*


So I figured I'd write a little update about me... I'm currently on CD 38.. still no sign of AF.. *shrug*.. Someone on JM commented on my chart and said they think I O'd later than my crosshairs were showing.. so I overrode FF and now I'm 13 DPO.. my temps are still up and I did a chart comparison on FF and everyone like mine resulted in a positive test.. sooo.. I will test again if AF doesn't show by CD 41 ( the longest cycle I've had since coming off BCP)..

I'm still going to do everything I posted earlier if AF does end up showing.. but hopefully that doesn't happen and I'm pregnant!!.. OMG I really hope so.. Here are my "symptoms"

* sore nipples.. kind of a random shooting pain that goes through my boobs as well
* cramps and backache
* way more tired than usual.. I've been sleeping in a lot longer lately
* random cramps.. pulling sensations in my uterine area
* really oily skin (my skin is never like this)

That's pretty much it.. hopefully it's good news.. *fingers crossed*.. I'm really trying not to get my hopes to high though.. I hate being disappointed.

Oo.. I got my first baby purchase today.. a baby boy bedding set off Ebay.. brand new... Nautical theme.. only $46 including shipping.. how can you beat that? pic above..

We've also decided we are going to cloth diaper full time.. I've been researching it a lot.. and there's so many benefits.. being good for the environment.. better for the baby.. and cheaper in the long run.. I've pretty much decided what one's I'm going to use already too (as long as baby cooperates).. so I'm pretty excited about that.. We're going to start buying them now.. 1 or 2 a month.. just to build up our stash.. and so we're not buying them all at once.. I actually found a store relatively close to us that sells all of that stuff.. so I'm pretty excited about that..

Alright.. I'll update later.. be it a BFP or the arrival of AF.

Waiting on AF

So I'm kinda down right now.. I'm currently 13 DPO, I tested this morning with FMU and got a BFN.. ugh.. that completely sucks.. I was feeling pretty good about this cycle too, my chart was looking good and our BD timing was right on.. *sigh* so now I'm just waiting for AF to show her ugly face... If she doesn't show by CD 41 I'll test again (that's the longest my cycle has been since coming off BCP- that was the first cycle).. I'm currently on CD 31 so not much longer.. UGH UGH UGH.

This next cycle (Cycle #5) I plan on temping vaginally since I believe that'll be more accurate for my body.. I'm also going to order some more PreSeed and I also have OPK's so I'll start using those on CD 15 or 16. We'll also be BDing every other day since Jeff has a low sperm count and we want to give him time to replenish his supplies (lol).

I'll write more later.. when I have some new news..
