Jen, I have Amy's Kickbox Extreme but I've only done it about 2 times. I haven't been able to get into it. There wasn't much breakdown as she instructs as she goes...which would be great if I were used to her style and moves...but frustrating for me just starting out with her. I'm sure Melanie...

Jen, that's great that things are returning to normal!!!:D Are you going back in to get more blood work taken soon to see where things stand? Thanks everyone for adding me on FB! It's neat to "see" you all.:) Lainie, so are you planning to test early or wait until the 1st day of your missed...

Yep, I'm on facebook: http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/profile.php?id=1252816721&ref=name hopefully the link works! I"m going to tentatively say that I MAY have ovulated yesterday! I wasn't charting temps bc it's been so long since my last cycle, but going by CF and cervical position...we'll...

Just wanted to chime in that he should be fine!!! Growing up we had a pull-up bar in our kitchen doorway and we were always on it. My brother and I held the pull-up records at our elementary school at 17 and 15, respectively when we were in 4th and 5th grade. How cool that he would ask for...

Wow Jen, (that's what I literally said when I read what you do;)) that's wonderful that you can make a difference in so many childrens' lives like that. I agree with Melanie though, it would probably be too difficult for me to handle...I can't even watch it if it's in a movie! Good for you for...

I took a test yesterday...it was negative, of course. I bums me out that my body doesn't seem to be working properly. Melanie, I'm feeling wetter today too so maybe something will finally happen! Are you using ovulation test strips to know when the big event occurs? Oh, no workout for me...

Melanie, sorry about the pimples! I swear by zinc - it keeps me clear as long as I take it each day. When I found out I was pregnant I stopped and I had the WORST skin throughout the entire pregnancy, though I'm sure much of it was hormonal. After making sure it was safe to take during...

Janice, Congratulations, Cory is so beautiful! If you try working out with her in the bouncy, just be prepared to take lots of breaks!! Sometimes it would take 5 hrs to do a 1 hr DVD, but sticking with it made me feel that I was at least making an effort. Does she nap during the day at all? That...

How was it going back to work today? It was a bit tough to get back into the groove of things for me. We got back yesterday and definitely could have used an extra day to decompress!;) I was so sad too yesterday after getting back, though it really didn't hit me until I started to unpack...then...

Hi ladies! I'm here in PA right now, braving the cold weather. I'm feeling bloated and puffy from not working out since Tuesday (we left at 5:30 AM on Wednesday) but this is also a bit of an experiment for me to see what my body does from taking such a long break from exercising. It's so funny...

Whew, what a day at work! I had to wrap up loose ends and send out all my notes to physicians today bc I won't be there any more this week. I'm so excited about going up north! Melanie, I think I would DIE in -55 deg weather. It was 61 today and I had my coat and gloves on, lol.:p Melanie, I...

Jen, where are you in FL? We're in Bradenton, which is about 45 min south of Tampa. The weather is goregous, I'm a bit afraid of going up north and braving the snow!:p Good luck with the blood test tomorrow morning! I am almost through reading TCOYF. It's so informative. I think I need to...

Good morning! Just doing some errands and cleaning the house today. I only have one day of work this week before we leave for OH and PA to see our relatives!:D I'm a bit nervous about flying with a 9 month old, but it's only a 2.5 hour flight from FL. Jen, where is your grandma coming from? Will...

Can I still join if I'm just TTC?:) (((HUGS))) to both of you. I would much rather have difficulty getting than staying pregnant, and I can't imagine feeling such a devastating loss. Melanie - I stopped breastfeeding in Sept. Had a period in Nov, but it may have been anovulatory. I keep...

Hi! I'm up for it if anyone else is. I just received "Taking Charge of Your Fertility" based on the recommendations from you great ladies on here. I can't wait to start applying it...which will probably be easier to do if I ever get my period again!:confused: But at least it can maybe...

I'm not breastfeeding anymore though - I weaned gradually and stopped completely in September. Then got my first period (since having Taylor in March) November 2nd. Then nothing. I did a search on here about irregular periods and excessive exercise/low body fat...but I don't think that's my...

Is it normal to have some irregularity at first? I finally had a period November 2nd but haven't had one since. It's so frustrating because we're trying to get pregnant.:mad: If this is to be expected, then I'll try not to worry. If it isn't...then I think I'll call my OB. My last negative...

I don't have advice either other than to say that my baby will be NINE months soon and I weigh just as much as I did at my 6 week pp check-up (which is what I also weighed when I was 20 weeks preg!) I don't own a scale, and that helps take a lot of the worry out of it. Are your clothes fitting...

Calee, I got those too but I believe they stopped before the 3rd trimester. I thought I had a fever the first time it happened!:p I just laid a big towel down on the bed so I wouldn't have to change the sheets when I woke at night. It also seemed to help if I was dressed MORE warmly - are you...

So I've been using the Answer brand pee stick kit that has 20 sticks in it (you can start it the day after you finish your period). I've read the directions several times...and it says it's positive if the "test" and "control" lines are the same color OR if the "test" line is darker than the...
