Guest guest Posted June 11, 2000 Report Share Posted June 11, 2000 Sue, I had my ep on 3/31/00 and lost my right tube to a rupture. My doctor told us to wait at least 3 weeks before bd and 3 or 4 months until we ttc again. Personally, I feel that I have had 2 normal cycles now and I am ready. I have asked questions on here and have tried to research -- but I find that there are many different answers. I feel that you need to listen to your body. I may not be the best person to answer right now though. I had always said I would be pregnant by my 30th birthday -- which is July 7th. So I have been EXTREMELY emotional lately and have once again taking to crying many times a day. My dh and I have decided to ttc again -- asap.

Guest guest Posted June 11, 2000 Report Share Posted June 11, 2000 , Im sorry for your loss, I have 2 sons age 5 and 4, I had the first child at age 28. When I had my ep on Easter, I was trying to conceive my 3rd child, I grew up in a family of 3 girls and we get along very well, im the middle child. I have done alot of thinking about having a 3rd child and read the book how to choose the sex of your baby, I watched my cycle for an entire year, got to know my body quite well and then ttc, it took 2 months, after thinking about having a 3rd child for so long. It was a relief when I was pg and then the ep has set us back. I am a very fortunate person to have 2 healthy babies on earth. I do feel for you because you have not had a child yet, I will pray for you, just keep a poss attitude however hard it is. by the way I was trying for a girl baby, but I would have been happy with any sex baby, the book how to choose the sex of your baby is very good book to help you understand your cycle and when you ov. your in my thoughts Sue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 11, 2000 Report Share Posted June 11, 2000 Sue, I have also read that book. It is very interesting. My dh and I were trying for a girl, too, when we started this process 2 years ago and thought things were easy. We actually wanted 2 boys and a girl, but thought we'd try for the girl this time so the next would have less pressure or we'd be better at it! (We have one boy who will be 3 on Wed.) We never conceived using the girl method. I don't know if it was my bad tube or if my dh boys don't live that long! ! Anyway, I thought you might find it interesting that others have tried it. (We tried that method for 6 months and then decided we'd rather be pg than choose the sex, I'm sure you understand. Also I'm getting kind of used to being the only lady of the house! ! ) Joleen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 11, 2000 Report Share Posted June 11, 2000 Joleen, I would probably be better with another boy, I have my dh, 2 sons and 2 male dogs and 2 male hamsters, so I am also very alone in this house of boys. My dh and I made a conscious effort at the girl method for 2 months and I think I charted rather well, however the pg ended in ep. So we will never know if I was right on that one, either way I was fortunate just conceiving. The girl version in that book is rather difficult especially if you don't have much time to bc I THINK THATS THE ABBR FOR IT, we did the best we could with trying to exhaust the sperm count, It was kind of fun watching my cycle and figuring out everything. I managed to not get pg for a year just following the advice of the book, has anyone else on the group read the book how to choose the sex of your child, its not just about that, it really does tell alot about your body and cycling. Thanks for your input joleen. Sue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 11, 2000 Report Share Posted June 11, 2000 Hi Sue, Just wanted to share that I also read the How to choose the sex of your child book and followed it to the letter!!! (I now have 3 boys) So much for theory..... We are trusting in God to make the right choice for us now. Vicki Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 12, 2000 Report Share Posted June 12, 2000 Hi Sue, I have read the book too. Dh and I at this point would be so excited with a boy or a girl that we have decide to not use the methods. However, I would recommend to anyone to read the book. It has a lot of info on ovulation etc. Once again, I have to say, it is such a miracle how one gets pregnant with all that has to happen. You made me laugh regarding your household of males. My dad told me at my wedding my only job was to have a boy. (I have a sister and she has two girls) Talk about pressure! I know God will make the right choice for us and my dad will love his grandchild regarless! Take care- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 13, 2000 Report Share Posted June 13, 2000 It only took me a couple of years to get used to 3 boys, but now at times I even think it is fun!!
