Ciara - I would go darker in color (can you still color while PG?). It will really work with your pale skin. Maybe add layers around your face... do you have anything against a fringe "bangs"?

I think it's just a "limit your exposure" kind of thing.
You can't dye your hair in the first trimester. I'm way into my second and as long as I do an early appointment I don't think the fumes will be enough to make me sick yet.

Heh, too many NFPers, eh? I personally am leaning towards Billings moreso than the temperature thing when I go off of the pill. Seems much more reliable.
My plan when I go off the pill is to just have a lot of sex and hope for the best. Haha and probably some ovulation kits. That whole NFP thing is too weird for me. Especially because as a health teacher it is my job to instruct my students on how not effective those methods are in birth control.
I have been seriously been considering bangs. I hate the way my hair looks right now. I used to have bangs but got so tired of them I got rid of them. Now I miss them. There used to be layers to my hair they just don't keep there body like they used to.
Billings involves examing your secretion every day. I'm sure you can find more information online (Billings Ovulation Method), but essentially the clear slimy kind of discharge means it's baby making time.
I just stopped the ring and have started charting. Yup, have the basal body thermometer by the bedside, read Taking Care of Your Fertility. I am woman, or something.
But KJB, have you been tested to see if there's something going on in your girl parts?
i wanted to do the temp thing - i got TCOYF but, since i'm lazy, never got around to starting it. i printed off the charts and everything. so who knows. but 4 pg tests tell me i'm not pg. yeah, just a bit paranoid.
Oh, and dnb, the success (or lack thereof) of NFP does kinda frighten me. I'm not gonna go off of the pill until we're okay with the prospect of maybe ending up pregnant, even if we didn't quite mean to yet.
Veggie - There's a website/book about "taking charge of your fertility" that combines temp charting and fluid charting that people swear is extremely effective as either preventative or TTC timing.
seriously, i'm the laziest person ever. i was going to ask one of the gynes when he was at work yeasterday, but nosey mcnoseypants was in the room, so i didn't get a chance. i should make an appt i guess.
i did have a cbc a few months ago through work and that was all good. but that was in july i think
I'd be paranoid too. So do you want me to try to unofficially diagnose you over the internet? ;P I could try. I got one of the highest scores in women's health in medical school and used to run a bunch of the women's health clubs. Used to work at PP too, so I know a bit about that stuff, even if I just take care of post-menopausal women now.
KJB - I've been meaning to tell you for a while now that I really like your wedding dress. So many beach gowns are super slutty, but yours is gorgeous.
I also did the blonde because DH and I had a bet going. I don't remember the logistics now other than the fact that if I lost I would go blonde. I'm just so ready for a change and need a new style that actually makes me feel like I look good.
