#TTCproblems

nannabee21

So I got the idea for this thread as I was feeling my boobs earlier trying to determine if the soreness is ovulation related or not. (And cracking myself up in the process). Or maybe I'm just delirious at 3am on night shift.... It's possible.

Let em rip. What are your #TTCproblems??

Mine:

Trying to figure out if my boob soreness is a result of ovulation or if H just manhandled them. #TTCproblems

Deciding to skip my jog when I get off work in the morning because I'm scared it will throw off my temp. It's a crucial one. #TTCproblems

Eta wording

Trying to decide whether that's O pain down there or too much sex the day before. #TTCproblems

Passing on that second margarita around when O time should be because I don't want to screw up my chart. #TTCproblems

Word. I did that last night with a Bloody Mary. I wanted it but I didn't want to screw with my temps.

2. Need to pee but too early for an OPK, hold it just an hour longer #TTCproblems

#2 - Did that twice this week. I really had to go, but I held that pee in, then the OPK was negative anyway. All that pee holding discomfort for nothing.

Seriously, it's such a shame.

I can't tell if that's semen or EWCM. #EDsex #TTCproblems

Had to say no to that orgy cause I'm ovulating and I want to know who the father is. #TTCProblems

I had this exact thought last night.

Only 6 OPKs left, gotta ration them because I'm not buying any more unless AF shows #ttcproblems

Wanting to stay up late but don't want to get less sleep that would alter temps.

Coming up with a different excuse each time for needing to come into work late because of RE appts. #ttcproblems

No sex drive! Oh to be young and full of horniness again.

I needed to get up at five yesterday morning but I temp at six usually. I was an hour late to my family reunion so I didn't mess up my temps. #TTCproblems

Seriously. I enjoy it when I get into it, but I have terrible trouble starting the mower these days. Did that just make me sound 70?

Starting the mower, mowing the lawn, putting the mower away. All of it

I'm so bad with #1.  I didn't realize how many weird "pinches" or "twinges" happened ALL THE TIME in my abdomen until TTC.  I'm just going to ignore them all because I don't think there is any way I could ever actually feel the difference between an O pain, an implantation pain or just straight up digestion business.

I just learned recently that semen doesn't stretch.  So if it's stretchy, it's legit EWCM.  Gross, but cool.

I've also heard that semen dissolves in water and CM does not. Don't quote me on that though. Just something I read on the webz.

Spending a few extra minutes before getting into the shower because I'm trying to determine if my nips are darker than the day before. #ttcproblems

Packing for a trip involves not just clothing, but a thermometer, opks, preseed, prenatals, and sex toys. #ttcproblems Talking myself out of unwrapping yet another HPT. #ttcproblems

Do you take sex toys when you fly? I would be afraid they would think my vibrator was a bomb and pull it out in front of the entire security line.

H works for an airline and the TSA are always talking about everyone's sex toys. They do random checks with your checked baggage and the things they find... 

If youre gonna fly with them... make sure you disinfect before use.

Edited to add words because I just can't today.

Making sure your bathroom trash is empty of anything that could blow your TTC secret when anyone comes to the house. #TTCproblems

Spending more time on TTGP/The Bump than Facebook to the point where friends think you are on a social media break. #ttcproblems

Going on a Pinterest baby stuff pinning spree at 9dpo because you're getting cramps and have a headache so you HAVE to be pregnant....right? #ttcproblems

Do I spend my money on tampons?  Or pregnancy tests?

Both. Because I like to be prepared.

#TTCproblems. 

Agree. I always use self check out when I buy both at once. I don't want any questions from the cashier!

FLFishOutOfWater said:

@lizzyp9112‌ I avoid pinning baby related things at all costs. Or hide them on a secret board. I have too many friends and family that would ask a bazillion questions if they saw any indication we were TTGP.

Meh, I get questions about it but I started the board awhile ago and just add once in awhile.  I'm at the point where I just don't care if people ask.... in a way it's nice, since once I do get KTFU I'll pin stuff and no one will think anything of it since I've been doing that for awhile haha.

People know that we are trying, but I always worry someone might see my Wondfo OPKs with two lines and think they are pregnancy tests. Not something I want to explain to anyone, so I'm meticulous about emptying every trash when I know we will be having company.

Heh, I got one from this month:

Starting sex early because your CM is pointing to an early O, then having to have sex for the next two weeks, rain or shine, until your damn O finally happens.  Too....much.....sexing....

This. 

Ladymouse

Making plans to have sex in your childhood bedroom because you don't want to miss a cycle (also debating explaining OPKs to your mother so she doesn't get the wrong idea if you throw one in the trash.)

Yep. You people are too distracting and awesome. I'm rarely on Facebook anymore.

This is so true, a friend even made a comment that I must not have internet at our new house yet due to my lack of "being online"

Obsessing about potential due dates after Ovulation is confirmed. #ttcproblems

I literally just looked mine up 5 mins ago. 

March 13th, 2015!



Sounds like a lucky day to me. Who doesn't love a Friday the 13th

Mine would be St. Paddy's Day. Epidurals and Guinness please. 

---quote box fail---

What a lucky day! That's my birthday, great day to have a baby. Plus, you know, when that baby is old enough to go out and party there will never be a shortage of people partying

March 25 here.

cateyes543

Follow up to my last one- The side eye H gives when he goes to Google something and sees my recent search list come up including searches on CM and sperm races. #ttcproblems

And mine would be March 19th

PuppyLove84

1. Forcing yourself to have sex despite pain shooting down your back and thigh because you're not sure you O'ed yet.

2. Accidentally leaving an OPK out (with two lines) and DH finding it and thinking you're pregnant.

3. Trying to plan overseas family vacations for next year and being hesitant to book expensive things.

4. Finding out from other bumpies that you can look up due dates based on O and then obsessively looking at when I could give birth. (March 17! Another St Patty's hypothetical baby!)

This thread is so full of awesome.

#ttcproblems-- Reading the posts on #ttcsisters on Instagram and feeling like I am WAY more calm and collected than some of the chicks on there.  I mean, I may research cervical mucus on the internet but I can preen because I have never posted a picture of my CM.

Getting good temps Holding pee without peeing in my pants when LO pushes on my bladder Not getting frustrated Sneaking in sex like we are in high school because we temporarily have family living with us who don't always knock before entering anything! Can't tell u how many nightmares I've had about this.
