Re: Chatty Thread!
Dante was getting a bottle once in a while, not even once a day.. maybe 3 times/week?
i just lucked out,  always came back early with all my pregnancies.
its not the norm though, just under half of women ovulate regularly while ttc and for some women, it can take up to a year after bf'ing b4 it returns fully (although this is rare)
This is the third ovulatory cycle i have had. i started noticing LOTS of ewcm, every few days for about 2 weeks, so i started temping, cus i felt that something was going on (plus i had those o type cramps off and on for a few weeks).. sure enough, i got the temp jump, it stayed up, and i had two more ovulatory cycles, including this one since.
They say that once baby goes longer during the day without feeds and sleeps through the night, fertility often returns, but i was bf'ing dante still every 2 hours, and he was still waking at night... so thats not ALWAYS the case.

Re: Chatty Thread!
Hi guys, just wanted to pop in and say Hi! We went to a salsa festival today (we ARE in AZ, and theres lots of salsa here!) and i entered Jason and I in a raffle and I won a $150 gift certificate to the Golden Door Spa in Scottsdale, and Jason won a round of golf for 4 at the a resort in Scottsdale! SO I think we made out pretty well. He only spent $20 on tickets. The salsa and chips were free but the margaritas were 6 tickets each! Good times! I think I am going to get my hair cut and colored about 3 weeks before the wedding. There are a lot of options, they do massages and acupuncture and stuff, I heard acupuncture helps with fertility, is that true? LOL
We are headed out soon to pick up our wedding bands  Jason, Michael and Keith (best man) got their outfits yesterday. Man, things are going so fast, I cannot believe it!! I havent temped, charted (other than BD times), or anything this cycle so far, I am already cd9! Time is really flying, and Im so excited!!!!
Shilo, congrats again! Andi, how are you? Carrie? Christina, hows married life? Your wedding looked like a fun time!

Re: Chatty Thread!
Congrats Shilo. Looks like you were O'ing after all. 18 months apart is a great gap.
Mel not much longer till your big day. Married life has been wonderful so far. We went on a small honeymoon. There was this place Matt had seen on Food Network and wanted to go. not your typical honeymoon. We are going on a cruise next spring.
I will have the proofs in another week I think. I can not wait. I am trying to get intouch with everyone that was taking pictures to get copies. Everything went so perfect. It was suppose to rain on our wedding day. The rain held off till after we were all in the reception. I swear some one was looking over us. There is a country song "Holes in the floor of Heaven" That is all I have been thinking about. Ok I need to stop the sappy talk.
Dianne how is Tarsha? Is she enjoying being a big sister? Jasmine's birthday is coming up I think I bet she is getting big.
Kim how are you doing?
Jenny how are you? Are things getting better? We had talked about going to Dover Downs and I was thinking that you are close to it.
Carrie how have you been?
I will be TTC nect cycle. I am so excited.
Well I am going to go for now.

Re: Chatty Thread!
ughh...
if the hpt isnt a clue to being preggo, the first trimester nightmare migraines are.
Always starts off with the vision disturbance... kind of a blank spot in my vision towards my right... then the pounding starts, on the opposite start, and then the nausea and stomache ache...
I must be crazy.
I didnt believe id get pregnant so fast, we were really kind of just 'practicing', .... and no, im not complaining... im happy, but still in shock, and i had a hell of a day trying to take care of little dante while in such pain and sick and half blind and unable to stand because i was so dizzy from the migraine. its been a few hours and has faded now... just have the nauseousness left.
I had some panicky moments today. Ive never really had morning sickness or anything during any pregnancy.... and was thinking.. omg, if i was this sick every day, how frightening that would be. d/h is on graveyards now.
blech
how are you all doing?
Andi? are you feeling better? resting up I hope and taking it easy? Enjoying lil Max?

Re: Chatty Thread!
I am gong to go on record saying I do NOT like my band. I tried to convince myself that I like it, but I dont. Everything is wrong about it, its half a size bigger than my engagement ring, its not cut out with the filigree like the side of my engagement ring, and he said it would look exactly like mine. The curve is wider and shorter than the curve of my ring, AND its not set n Micropave. That is where the diamonds all just sit together, and there are two stones per setting. Well on the band, the diamonds are individually set, not even close to my ring. Im so unhappy right now. He said he would fix the ring after the wedding, if i can wait it out until then. But I dont think I can  Here are the pics...
UGH! Why cant I just be happy?? But Im supposed to wear this set for the rest of my life, I dont think I could look at it everyday, knowing I dont like it......I feel so selfish

Re: Chatty Thread!
aww, don't fret, I dont think you're selfish.
I however could NEVER wear so much bling, hehe, id lose it for sure.
My band is silver, cost 15.00, husbands was 20.00
My 'engagement' ring was 20, its silver also, wiht a silver and gold pentagram on it.
They were cheap, but mean soo much to me. Hubby and i did a ring consecrating/blessing ceremony the night before our wedding, and we both invoked our love and dedication into each others rings.. it was a beautiful ceremony....
what am i trying to say? Whether you paid thousands or 20.00, its not about the money, its about the way you feel when you look at it. And if you look at it and feel displeased, then do what you need to do to rectify the situation hon
