Following my recent letter out to the universe (found in my other blog http://afterfuzzy.blogspot.com/ ), we have decided to re-commence TTC (trying to conceive) this cycle :) Fuzzy will forever be in our minds, our hearts, and always in spirit but we've now chosen to recommence our journey to having a bubba in our arms. xx
As you may or may not have read throughout my previous posts in my other Blog - 'MY LIFE' - we have been, and do pray for a honeymoon baby.
Why the chosen name you ask (Sticky Bun)? Let me explain. (BTW, I had seen it elsewhere as well :P )
But what the hey, what better name to represent our little one - I'm sure who ever thought it up won't mind me 'borrowing it'. :)
The Sticky represents our hopes, dreams & wishes for this next bundle of joy to stick to Mummy's uterus, and come out to meet the world in it's due course :) Bun, is to represent us having a 'Bun In The Oven', and the overall term 'Sticky Bun' is a particular type of sweet - that speaks for itself :)
Hmm.. writers block. Don't you just hate that?? I had this great idea to start this new blog this morning as I had so much I wanted to say/write, but now I can't for the life of me think of any of it. Damn.
We've (well... I...) have purchased the wonderful OV Watch - I've purchased it off a fellow forum member who had great success with it so I hope for the same.
This is it here:
"OV-Watch® is worn on the woman's wrist while she sleeps. Women start wearing OV-Watch® on the 1st, 2nd, or 3rd day of their menstrual cycle and wear it through ovulation. It measures a woman's changes in her chloride ion levels that are secreted in perspiration every 30 minutes and records up to 12 readings per period. OV-Watch's patented technology detects the chloride ion surge and alerts the woman to FERTILE DAY 1, FERTILE DAY 2, FERTILE DAY 3, FERTILE DAY 4, OVULATION DAY 1, and the day after. It is the ONLY device of its kind that can give you the 4 days BEFORE ovulation. That can make all the difference when you are trying to conceive. Please see the User Reference Guide for complete instructions on "how to start your next cycle". OV-Watch® can be used for this pregnancy and subsequent pregnancies, and unlike urine based products can be shared with a friend after you are pregnant."
It's been posted to me this morning - I can't wait to receive it!! It's very expensive, but very well worth it - it will be anyway, when we have a bubba in our arms :) There's just been so many positive stories from people using it I couldn't possibly pass it up.
Not only will it take the guess work out of this whole TTC thing, it will eliviate a lot of the stress involved from worrying whether we 'BD'd (baby-danced)' on the correct days.
I'm so excited about this - I just KNOW it's going to make such a big difference! Given our honeymoon - the ultimate time for making baby ;) - is just over 7 weeks away, it's perfect timing!
To add to the above, (just some of) the measures we're also putting in to place are the following:
- Chad's taking Menevit (the male equivalent to the multivitamin 'Elevit').
- I'm taking a new herbal multivitamin called Endau Balance (a before pregnancy one)
- I'm using Endau Harmonising Cream (designed to re-balance the female hormones)
- We will be using Pre-Seed (a swimmer friendly lubricant designed to maximise chances of conception)
- PLUS charting temps & monitoring CM of course :)
So therefore, bring on our BFP (BIG - FAT - POSITIVE) !!!
