Hi all!  Here are some questions for the week

1. Do you believe any of the old wives tales about conception?

2. Are you an obsessive tester?

3. How are you/SO feeling about another LO?

1. Do you believe any of the old wives tales about conception?

I am not sure if I know any. Probably, but I just can't think of them.

2. Are you an obsessive tester?

Yes! When I first got BFP with LO I tested every 1-2 days for maybe a week to see if line was getting darker. I also had a bunch of Wondfos to use so why not.

3. How are you/SO feeling about another LO?

Not ready. We need DH to graduate college, get a job, we need a bigger house. I tend to stress easily and LO is plenty for me to handle right now. I am hoping it will be easier to manage a newborn with a LO more self sufficient.

1. Do you believe any of the old wives tales about conception? No, I am more of a believer in medical science

2. Are you an obsessive tester? yes, once DPO 9 rolls around I start to get the itch, and if I have tests in the house I test daily, I try not to keep them in the house

3. How are you/SO feeling about another LO? hopeful, not out yet this month, having a very long cycle, on DPO 12 I think, can not quiet confirm O with my chart but I think there was a temp shift.  I thought my test this morning was a squinter but I can't tell

1. Don't really fall for the old wives tales.
2. Not much of a tester. And never tested unless my period was really late.
3. I'll be ready for another before my H. He's thinking about right now and our finances. I'm thinking about long term and a sibling for C.

1. Can't hurt to try them
2. Yes!! I like to pee on All the sticks
3. DH wants to wait until DS STTN and I want to wait until the summer is over but my baby fever is trying to over power my rational self. Eeeek

1. I try them but don't rely in them. It's just for fun.
2. Oh yes! I love to pee on sticks.
3. H is ready. He has been. I change my mind daily on when the best time for another will be. I want another baby but I'm worried about being tired with 2 toddlers and balancing my time. I know we will figure out a new crazy normal.

Fingers crossed it was! Keep us posed.

GAh! So exciting! Post a pic!

Major temp dive this morning, and AF started, so CD 1 for me

I am a little bummed since I am not sure if next month will even have a shot, if I have the same pattern and O into the 24-28 day range Ill be out of town during my window...

1) no old wives tales here. We just have sex and hope for the best mentality here.

2) I only POAS if something is late. When we did try for DS I took a test every few days because I didn't want to drink if I could be preggers. Honestly that was the first time I had ever hoped for a positive result.

3) We aren't going to try for #2 until this October/November. By then I'll have my post grad hours in for my exams and can take the tests before I get super tired/big. I need to get that completed because I don't think I'd ever to be able to study with two babies. Plus I'm hoping that once I get my certification I can just do consulting PT but earn what I make now. Plus we're aiming to have a baby in July/August of next year because if DH is coaching, that is his "off" time.
