QOTW: What crafty projects do you have on the go? Or if not crafty, any home/family related projects?

Right now I’m trying to crochet a pair of mouse ears for myself for storybook character day. I thought myself to crochet before Halloween. So I mostly make hats.

RRCS: I have pneumonia. I feel like crap. I've been home all week.

QOTW: What crafty projects do you have on the go?

I started knitting a huge blanket last year. It's going to be way too big but I'm determined to finish it. And I'm knitting scarves for all of DD's dolls.

akwild Hahaha! Exactly what I do!

[akwild]

sammysam I was given a z pack once while pregnant with M. (But like super pregnant).

I am trying not to be too hopeful but hopeful..... and trying to wait until Wednesday to test.

[sammysam]

akwild I'm trying to wait until Wednesday too...I'm worried I'm going to cave and test on Monday at 10DPO.

[akwild]

sammysam I get you. I don’t know if I’ve been having symptoms or if I’ve been willing symptoms to happen. Occasionally I get like a sharp pain in my breast and last night I had a sharp pain near my left hip that made me stop what I’m doing. I’m trying to remember what it felt like the last 2 times but I should probably just try to take my mind off of it.

Today on of my coworkers (who knows about my loss) mentioned she was looking into donating sick leave and if she could just give it to me (she’s retiring next school year and has 300 days of sick leave) but she was like you better get pregnant. All I could say was ughh were trying...

[sammysam]

akwild I'm trying not to get too excited because of the pneumonia...but I'm already symptom spotting too and trying to remember the last time around.

They took away our sick leave bank a few years back so I have like 200 or 300 days I'll never get to use and never get paid for which is so frustrating! At least our mat leave is really good which makes up for it...but which does me no good unless I get pregnant. Grrr. If we both got pregnant this cycle our due dates would be almost exactly the same I think. I am hoping really hard for both of us!

Month/Cycle: 9/1AL


CD/DPO: 22/7


Timing: -2


RRCS: I'm disappointed at the timing. I almost never get more than one day in my FW. My husband has terrible psoriasis, and he gets it...everywhere. Sometime it just hurts him too much to have sex.

QOTW: What crafty projects do you have on the go? Or if not crafty, any home/family related projects?
I am slowly knitting a hat

[akwild]

Ok.... so I have ZERO self control and left over OPKs.... and I got a faint second line. But now I can’t remember if that second like on the clear blue test is always there. Now I’m going to go insane. I needed to just wait.... I have a Clearblue test that came with the box of OPKS And a FRER.... I should wait..... tell me i should wait

Month/Cycle: 3/3


CD/DPO: CD 21 8 DPO


Timing: -2


RRCS: I'm having all the feels lately. DS is having such a hard time in school and it's only Kindergarten, will he be able to handle first grade and a newborn in the house? Will I?


QOTW: What crafty projects do you have on the go? Or if not crafty, any home/family related projects? Nothing right now. I'm not really crafty.

[sammysam]

akwild did you try a FRER yet??? I NEED TO KNOW!!!

I'm waiting until Monday. I should wait until Wednesday but Monday gives me 10 DPO and I know I'll cave.

[sammysam]

killertofu is this his first year of school or did he do jk? Hopefully as he grows and matures it will start to get easier for him and for you.

I did not.... I’m going to wait until Monday. Because I don’t want my impatience to make me see a negative..... I need to chill. I also am bummed because the H will already be gone for work.... I’d have to wait until he got home to tell him, but I can handle that if it’s positive.

[sammysam]

akwild update on Monday!!!

With DD I tested after SO had already left for work. I told my sister when she showed up to go to the gym that morning before I told SO. Then I felt bad so I texted him when he was on the highway on the way to work. I did the same with our loss. I have no impulse control.

[Yogurt]

sammysam, thinking of you!!! If I recall you can pull a faint second line on an opk at anytime in your cycle. I think. Good luck!

He was in preschool last year and there were definitely rough days, but I don't remember it being every single day like it is now. He has been diagnosed with ADHD but I think a lot of the problem is immaturity. I just hope we can figure it out before he gets the "bad kid" label. 

[sammysam]

killertofu I'm sure it will sort its self out in time. Is there any continuity in terms of teachers? Will he be with a teacher he knows next year or will it be new faces again? I know with my niece it really helped when she had the same teacher 2 years in a row. I'm finding the same thing with my daughter now that having the same teacher as last year has made a huge difference. Is that an option at your school or do teachers stay with the same grade every year?

[sammysam]

Yogurt I think you meant this for akwild (she is the one who pulled the faint line on the OPK) but I'll take any wishes of luck I can get:) I'm waiting until Monday or Wednesday to test...I hate seeing negatives.

I don't think keeping the same teacher is an option, but I will look into it. Thanks for the idea!

Thank you! I’m going to keep testing because I want to see the lines get darker.

You have been such a wonderful support. I hope you get your bfp this month too!

[sammysam]

akwild I'll be stalking you either way. I'm so happy for you! I kept checking for updates because I knew it was your month:)

I'm trying to hold out until Tuesday or Wednesday if AF doesn't show. I'm optimistic but because of the pneumonia I'm not as hopeful as I was.

[Yogurt]

Congratulations akwild ❤

[Yogurt]

I'm right here with sammysam. 10 dpo, but trying not to test for a few days. With last months bfp/chemical I had negatives at 9 and 11 dpo, so I'm holding off til at least 12dpo, but I hope I can hold out and just not test until I'm actually "late".

We only hit -2 this month, but I only had one day last month (O) and I got the bfp, so I'll remain optimistic.

[sammysam]

Yogurt I hope this is your month too (and mine:)! I know I'll test tomorrow and I know it will be negative...even if I was pregnant I know from past experience that I likely wouldn't pull a positive until Wednesday (12 DPO) if it's going to be positive at all. With my loss I had a negative at 11 DPO as well...and a very vety faint positive on the 12th. With DD I didn't even test until 14 DPO. But I'll probably start peeing on things tomorrow and just keep on peeing on stuff until AF shows or I get a positive.

[remi]

LO is 5

I'm CD 21/and either 6/7 days DPO

Timing was pretty good I think.-5, -3, -1, O, and +2.

 

I am the least crafty person ever. We do a lot of board games with DD now, and she is in love with the game crazy 8s.

I'm feeling pretty hopeful that this is our month. I'm not going to be testing until next Wednesday at the earliest. I can't look at more negative tests.

[sammysam]

Obviously I hate myself because I peed on something this morning and of course BFN. It's only 10DPO so there's still a chance and I'll probably keep peeing on sticks until AF shows...but trying to keep my expectations realistic at this point.
