laugh out loud That reminds me of the birth control "pill" the columnist Dear Abby used to advise her readers to use: Take an aspirin and put it between your knees.
LMAO my parents must have been too po' for the nickel method. Secret I am glad no one told them about the asprin method, then I wouldn't have 5 GREAT siblings!

Quote from CartmanLikesPie :
*snip*

Stress, even low level anxiety about conception can be a MAJOR catch 22 as it makes conception all that much harder.

*snip*

Those are my words of encouragement, Nono1 no more self-introspection to diagnose "what's wrong" - nothing is wrong. Remember, life is a miracle and miracles happen on God's schedule, not ours... Now go have a glass of wine, enjoy life and R - E - L - A - X.
Iagree I have learned through the Creighton Model Fertility System CrMS (used to achieve or avoid pregnancy naturally...Secret and it is easier, safer as there are no known medical side effects, and the cost is considerably less than that of other contraceptives or fertility care).

Ok ok, getting to the point! In simple terms...when a woman is under stress her body has a "coping mechanism" to postpone or supress ovulation. Her body "knows" if it is a good or bad time for conception.

Quote from TargetMagic :

Same thing happened to me. I got pregnant the first time as soon as we started trying. Then 2 years later decided it was time for another. It took me 4 more years, but it did happen. I asked the doctor one day why it was so easy the first time, and his response was "did you ever think you got lucky the first time?" Meaning, maybe it was always hard for me to conceive. Hang in there, relax, and it will happen.
This was us too. First one came right after we started tring, when she was 3 I wanted another, it took us almost 3 years to get her. We did the fertility meds and IUI when that failed I had had enough and gave up--the next month--on Christmas Eve I got that 2nd line!

Quote from skynsam :
You can use the Ponds peelies to buy Fandango GC, so if you don't want those peelies, I would happily take them Wink laugh out loud (trying to find the post with the info on how do it, found the link from Drugstore forum earlier today) - found it How to redeem Ponds Peelies into Fandango GC

Ah - we have the same coupon doubling thing as you - I had fun last night. Spent my birthday doubling coupons and even the cashier commented on how well I did and was impressed laugh out loud
That is sweet! Me and DH thank you; I'm out of reps, but i'll get ya when I get them back

Quote from shopgirl24 :

can i add that today i'm a bit miffed by the fact i'm not prego and yet somehow my hips will not fit into a pair of jeans i wore only a month ago? i swear, its just not right. Mad laugh out loud
We are tring again & this is soo me right now! Good Luck

I would like to bang my head repeatedly into the wall right now.

Isn't it amazing how you can be having a completely great day and it all goes to sh*t in like 5 minutes???

We have suddenly incurred a $1900 debt....don't ask it's a long story and not in the mood to get into it. We don't have that kind of money and I have no clue how we are going to get that kind of money. The plus side is we can make monthly payments...the bad side is we're already stretched thin making our month to month bills. *sigh*

If anyone has idea's for good cheap/free items to sell at the flea market I would def. appreciate it. hopefully if I can do that 1 or 2 times the month it will cover the payment and we won't be totally screwed.

Dh's mom's surprise birthday party is this weekend. It was our idea and his sister totally hi-jacked the party and now she's calling us TWO days before the party saying we need to get the cake and now his other sister isn't paying for the appetizers etc....I'd like to tell her to (insert all kinds of bad words here), but dh won't let me and I have to find a nice cake for cheap in two days. In addition to working, cleaning, and taking care of dd and dh (he had teeth pulled).

Oh and now I have to get ready for work and make sure everything is ok b/c my boss is coming back tommorow.

Ok, sorry for the rant but everything had been going fairly well and now it just sucks.

thanks so much for the advice. maybe what i really do need is a nice drink. i seriously haven't had one since around christmas, no wonder i'm so uptight! LMAO

my son will be 6 next month. i feel the exact same way about him as you do for dd. and here's to sending good wishes to you as well to add to your family. hug




can i add that today i'm a bit miffed by the fact i'm not prego and yet somehow my hips will not fit into a pair of jeans i wore only a month ago? i swear, its just not right. Mad laugh out loud

if it is that time of the month, I think the body retains more water making it swell...that might be the reason...

We just found out my insurance does not cover any type of fertiliy treatments. All we want is a donor and someone to insert it. Smilie ..Im going to see if my OB/GYN can do that, because the ins will not pay for fertility doctors..

Toothpaste was a big seller at my yard sale. So was Pantene, any kind of shampoo really, but we seem to all have tons of pantene. Toothbrushes sold great as well. Haven't you been getting a bunch of Nexxus stuff at K? That would be a great seller! Sorry to hear about your unexpected debt. Things like that have a way of hitting us blindsighted sometimes!

Someone could bake a cake and not make you worry about that. If I was your neighbor I would help you make a cake, since I used to do that decorate cakes for events and such. A bit cheaper that way if you can make it yourself. Maybe someone knows of some coupons that could help. As far as appetizers, maybe you could use the $3 off T.G.I. Friday's coupon for some inexpensive treats.

As far as selling things shampoo, razors and toothpaste sold very good for me. I didn't have any diapers or wipes to sell, but others have had luck selling these.

Quote from Jen2882 :
lol I have one right now (and 2 step sons) and we want at least one more. They have been trying to regulate my meds for the past 6 months, so I guess when they get that right we should be good to go. I'm having a positive day...some days I have days where I wonder why me? Why can I just be normal and not deal with this crap, but I can't change it, so I'm trying to just accept it. Even if I can never have another one I have to remember at least I got dd and as much as she drives me crazy I love her to death and some people aren't even able to have one, so I should be thankful for that.
I have my share of health issues to deal with(GERD, IBS, pinched nerve in my lower back, bursting cysts on my ovieries) and I thank God everyday that I am healthy happy, and have so many blessings. I weigh 240 lbs and I am 5'3" but I am active and fit, I could have knee problems, but I don't, I could have diabetes, but I don't, I could have alot of conditions,but I don't. Yes life can be full of sh**t but it also full of so many positives.

I went into getting pg both times with the attitute that it will either happen or it won't. My back up plan, if not pg but a certain age we will adopt, otherwise(shrug)... I was off the pill after 5 yrs on it and it took 8 months the first time, and 1 month the 2nd time ( funny story on the second one) I did an ovulation calculater online, and even though dh and I where so sick that we where sleeping in seperate beds, on the date the calculater said, I had my way with him, then went and crashed on the spare bed, came up pg, Never once did I mention baby to him. I think that was it for the month, we where both sick for like 3 weeks that year, just couldn't shake it.

And lets not forget guys don't want to be though of as a sp**m donar they want you to be there for more than a baby. That can kill a sp**m count! Men stress when there ladies are upset.... see the cycle?
