Preseed...one word, WOW!

Well I tried preseed for the first time, and let me tell you it made a BIG difference on how it felt...in a good way! I mean BDing is good but this was like AMAZING! I was so surprised at how it felt and so did the hubby. Now I know that I was missing something without this lubricant and I won't be BDing without this stuff again!
We are now in the long TWW again, and I can't wait to get to the end already. I'm not going into too positive but I'm not going into negative either. We did what we could and that's all that matters. I didn't stress over the opk's and temping this month which made me feel much better. All I did was drink my teas', take my mucinex, and enjoy sex, so that's all that matters. If I fall pregnant this month that would be great, but if I don't there is always next month. I'm trying to relax this month and it has been working great!
Oh the other week, the hubby and I had to go to NC (with AF visiting) for business reasons. Well we made the most of it and went golfing (my first time) and we went to a last minute Taylor Swift concert (who I love) and it was WONDERFUL! It was the most fun we had in a while, got to enjoy each other company, and got privacy. Here is one of the pics from the concert below (I'll have more when I get them off of hubby's phone):

On a side note, I went to a Starbucks on the way back and they were not listening to me when I spelled my name, so this is how it came out:

Nice right! lol

But anyways cheers to the TWW and luck and babydust to every future momma!!!

on to the next one

SOOOOO AF has showed her face today CD 30/14dpo/now CD1. I'm ready for the next cycle now, I'm going into this cycle with a positive attitude. I think it will happen this cycle, this is my month! I've been too focused on everything and ttc that I hadn't realized before I had the miscarriage I got pregnant without all this charting and opks. Its really makes it more stressful to focus on my husband & I and our dream of a baby.
So next month I'm only using the few opks I have left (which is not many) and no temping after ovulation is detected. I'm also going drinking green tea, rooibos tea, and I'm going to also being trying preseed this month. I have been hearing good things about preseed sooo maybe it will work for us ;D
 
 Well next month is going to be my due date for my baby Ethan...I'm not really looking forward to it. October 21, 2013...I don't know how I'm going to handle it...

Here's to another TWW...

SO here we are in the TWW again...sigh...already ready for it to be over. I'm currently on 7dpo, after ovulating on CD 16. I usually ovulate on CD 10-14, so this was really weird for me. I'm not counting on this cycle working, but still crossing my fingers that it is still my cycle.
If this month turns out to fail, then next month I'm not going to be doing OPK because I think it makes me stress out much more. I'm going to continue charting my temperature, taking mucinex, and drinking raspberry leaf tea. This cycle I'm not symptom spotting cause I go crazy trying to see if other people had the symptom before their BFP. I haven't had any noticeable symptoms to record anyway, so that helps too. ;D

Something new I started this month was checking my cervix, let me tell you it is not easy! It is really cool though cause got to feel how it was exactly when I was ovulating; it might be hard but it was so worth it. I'm going to be doing this next cycle, instead of using an OPK to find out when I'm close to ovulation.

7 days left in the TWW, 7 days to test!!!!
Crossing my fingers and praying for my rainbow someday!
Babydust & Luck to the rest of you lovely ladies :-*
