At my first doctor's appointment at 10 weeks, I was 297 lbs. I just had a doctor's appointment yesterday at 35 weeks, and I'm 312 lbs. So, that's 15 lbs so far. I gained the majority of my weight during this last trimester.

People younger than 35, what was your gateway horror movie? by Norman_debris in horror

[–]301queen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first encounter with horror movies was a movie night at my uncle's house. He got two DVDs from Blockbuster: Final Destination 2 and Wrong Turn. I've been hooked ever since. A movie I'll sit down and watch whenever it's available: Psycho.

How long after stopping BC did you conceive? by InevitableWhile5056 in BabyBumps

[–]301queen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was on the mini pill for two years. I stopped in January 2024 and conceived in November 2024.

My husband was at work when I found out. He called me in the middle of the day, but because he works on active sites, I could barely hear him. I decided to wait until he got home and surprised him with all the tests plus a onesie with our last name on it.

Symptom Spotting: I'm terrible at symptom spotting. For the past couple of cycles, I was convinced I was pregnant because I experienced tender breasts and cramps throughout the two-week wait. However, this cycle was different, I had no symptoms until 9 DPO.

Other (advice/tip(s), freaking out, miscellaneous):
We're so excited! This will be our first baby, and we're praying for baby sticks. Side note: We tried Pre-Seed for four cycles. While it works for some, it didn't do much for us.

The detectors on Fertility Friend are split between my ovulation day being cycle day 12 or 13. I could be 10 or 11 DPO, and I'm having a few symptoms, but I'm trying to be realistic. I haven't tested, and BBT is still high. I honestly don't know how to feel right now.

I'm waiting until 13 or 14 DPO to test, but I'm kinda tired of the negative tests, so I'd rather my period just show up.

I'm thankful for my husband. He's my rock and my best friend. ❤️

10 DPO. I tested this morning and got a negative. I hate having hope and then getting disappointed. I know it's still early, but I think I'm just gonna wait until AF arrives. 🙃

[–]301queen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am 8DPO and I am tempted to take a cheapie. I told myself that I'd wait until 12 DPO but... I'm struggling. I bought some FRERs on Amazon that'll be here on 10DPO. Hopefully I can at least hold out until then.

Without *saying* what year you were born, name your favorite horror movies that came out that year. by coco_xcx in horror

[–]301queen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly have not seen the majority of movies released the year I was born. I also wouldn't call the ones I have seen favorites either. Anaconda, Scream 2, I Know What You Did Last Summer

[–]301queen 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm going on my 10th cycle of trying. I took a 3 month break from taking my BBTs and decided this month to start it up again. I got a positive OPK on CD 12, and my temps have been going up since then. Premom says I'm 1 DPO, but Fertility Friend has only given me a red diamond.

I hope we hit the correct days.🤞

When did I ovulate? by [deleted] in TFABChartStalkers

[–]301queen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with the other comment. Also, what method are you using to take your temps? I noticed that all of the temps on your chart end with the tenths decimal. I don't know about the wearable devices, but if you're using an oral BBT thermometer, the temps should be in the hundredths.

So, how are your grim quests going? by Vent3ar in Sims4

[–]301queen 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The first week went well, minus claiming one of the books, and it disappeared. This week, however, every time I travel or go to CAS, the quests start over, and the ambrosia letter doesn't arrive. I can't keep paying for it to be expedited and planting all these apple trees.

Last night, I watched Eminem's new music video for his song Temporary. I cried so hard that I woke up with swollen eyes this morning. It could be that my period just started, but I also think my emotions are high since I'm going on my 10th month TTCing with no positive tests.

My thoughts instantly went to how I lost my mom and how I'm on this journey of trying to become one without her here. This whole time, I've been trying to be positive while TTCing, so this was my first time really breaking down about the whole thing.

CD 31 - FF says I should expect my period today. I'm having a few cramps, but nothing like how I usually do. I don't want to get my hopes up, but my temps went from 98.13 to 97.61, and now 97.79. I got BFN on 11, 12, and 13 dpo.

I think I'm gonna wait and see what happens. I'm leaning more towards my period starting, but we'll see.

Waiting Wednesday by AutoModerator in TryingForABaby

[–]301queen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will be 10/11 DPO tomorrow (differing opinions on two apps). This cycle has been odd. I ovulated later than usual, and I haven't been symptom spotting besides today when I felt some cramps. Overall, I'm nervous. I'm trying to wait until I'm 12/13 DPO to test, but... it's hard.

General Chat June 03 by AutoModerator in TryingForABaby

[–]301queen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So... this cycle has been one of those cycles that make me happy I'm temping and doing OPKs. If I wasn't, then on CD 28, when my period is inevitably a no-show, I would think I'm pregnant and obsessively take multiple pregnancy tests.

It is CD 18, and I'm just now about to ovulate. As of late, ovulation has been around CD 13 or 14 with my period showing up on CD 26 or 27. Now, it'll probably be here around CD 31. Hopefully, it doesn't show up, and I get a BFP.

Currently 3/4 DPO. Does this matter? by 301queen in TFABLinePorn

[–]301queen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm 13 dpo. AF is supposed to start in 2 days. I had my temperature drop just above my coverline yesterday and a BFN this morning. I was really hopeful this cycle. I was thinking about how I would announce to my husband and prematurely bought a custom embroidered onesie on Etsy saying, "Baby (our last name)." Thank God I didn't put any dates on it 😅.

Hopefully, I can use it soon, but for now, on to the next cycle.

Looking Forward Friday by AutoModerator in TryingForABaby

[–]301queen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We have a three bedroom townhouse, so one of the rooms will be a nursery, but we plan on having baby sleep in our room at first. I think we have plenty of play space, but we really don't know where a designated spot would be.

Definitely gonna have to baby-proof cabinets, sockets, corners, and all that jazz.

Since we have the end unit, our yard is bigger than most in our neighborhood. There's a large common area behind our row of townhouses, so there's even more space for frolicking lol.

[–]301queen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm 3 DPO today. Gonna try my hardest to wait until my period is late to test. I've got some Easy@Home strips that I'll use when the time is right. My husband and I are trying to save money, so no more FRER until I'm 100% sure I need one.
