    Autumn, any news for us yet? Hve you decided when you'll test? Priscilla, many of the home tests will detect the preg. hormone 5 days before your missed period, but it's only 60something % accurate, I think. I'm like you in that I don't have problems working out, but sweets are another...

    Soooooo sleepy! It's nuts here already. Bourbon street at 2 PM was shoulder to shoulder, so I can only imagine how it'll be tonight! We got in at 7:30AM and have been running all day, then came home (to my brother's) around 5PM, rested a bit, now getting ready to go out for the night. I did...

    exercise affect fertility

    I haven't resumed my cycles after I stopped nursing in September. My OB told me to stop all exercise and eat more. I don't exercise excessively and I'm a healthy weight...so I cut back a little but did NOT stop altogether! Good luck!!

    Jen, I hope you make the most of your ovulation time!:D Autumn, DH would probably pass out if I showed him my CM. He watched Taylor being born and says he'll never see me the same way again, ha. Susan, sorry to hear about your neck. Spinal surgeries don't have the greatest track records of...

    Well my "period" seems to have lasted only 2 days. There was never any new blood, just the brown stuff (my DH gets so grossed out when I talk about this sort of thing - it's funny to watch him squirm!:p) Susan, good to hear about the queasiness - everyone told me that it's a good sign. I...

    I started bleeding today!!! It's brown and kind of spotty like it would be toward the tail end of a period. Not sure what the next step would be for me to keep these periods going... Susan, how's the insomnia going? That must be tough. YES - it's exactly like the let-down response feeling...

    TTC/ Post M/c Support Week of 2/8/09

    Hey girls, I probably won't be around much with my schedule the way it's been/going to be. I'm having a hard time finding a balance between work and home and I'm getting short-tempered at home bc of how I'm feeling at work.:( I've got 3 pills left...still no period but maybe it's supposed to...

    TTC/ Post M/c Support Week of 2/8/09

    Whew I'm really tired from working these longer days. I think I've been eating more sweets to "up" my energy and make myself feel less sad about spending so much time away from Taylor. Susan, Haley is beautiful, she'll be beating the boys off soon! That's great about her spelling bee, you...

    Wendy, I use yourdays.com too...though it keeps alerting me that my "period is out of date" bc the last one I had was Nov. 2nd.:eek: I feel like a slob for taking today off from working out...I just found out that I'll be working longer days this week and won't get to see Taylor so I was/am...

    TTC/ Post M/c Support Week of 2/8/09

    Hey everyone, no signs of AF, though I never really had premenstrual symptoms anyway. It's my understanding that I should bleed by 14 days after starting the pills (or 4 days after I'm finished with the 10 day supply). Does that sound right? Welcome, Wendy!! Waiting is so tough! I know...

    Jen, it sound like you're in a tough place right now! It sounds like a great idea to get away and celebrate your anniversary. We got married in Vegas too, and I know what you mean about family pulling you in 10 different directions. It was great but not very relaxing or romantic in the...

    Melanie, sorry you're feeling so down. It only takes one good month to get pregnant though! I hope you are able to find SOME way to DTD at Disney! Speaking of trips, DH and I are flying to New Orleans to see my brother the weekend of Feb 20-22 (also MartiGras). That will be our birthday(s)...

    TTC/ Miscarriage Support--- SuperBowl Week

    I just got back from my appt and I'm not happy.:mad: I was afraid this would happen. The midwife basically told me to gain weight and stop exercising for an entire month!!!! What?!?! Especially since I weigh more now than I ever did...I weigh what I did when I was 20 weeks preg! I'm appalled at...
