E+J: The Cycle of Life - Part 23

[auntasaurus19]

Under Armour is currently on a product placement blitz right now. If we have never seen Jackson wearing that hat before, then I 100% think the cute clip of him jumping around with the hat was set up by Jared.

Jackson desperately trying to get Ellie's attention as she talked about Penny's training made me sad

Does anyone else think the way E&J are talking about never experiencing trying like this before, makes it sound like this is their first normal time trying to conceive? Makes it sound like they lied about trying for months to get into a fertility clinic faster (and for insurance to have covered it they would have had to) and this is their first real time actually trying from an informed standpoint.

YES! I think she was too stupid to know before what the hell was going on. "Jared put his p in my v and UHHMMM a baby didn't come out. So UHHHMMM we are UHHHHMMM definitely UHHHMMM infertile." (Anyone every notice how much she OVER EXAGGERATES the word "UHHHHMMMM" AND how much she says it?!? Drives me nuts. I bet Jared thinks it's "so stinkin' cute".) Maybe Jared finally figured out it's not forbidden to look at informative websites that say the words "penis" and "vagina" on them... a drawing of a uterus isn't porn Jared.

Was Jared's discussion about farts supposed to be funny? No Jared, nobody wants to hear that.

How many years were they married before getting pregnant with Jackson? They do not seem like the type that would use birth control right away after marriage to wait a few years. I would believe that they were "trying" (not preventing) since their honeymoon. So either they did have some struggle (regardless of the cause being a real diagnosis, Ellie's weight, or just plain ignorance) or were just doing it wrong [FACE SAVOURING DELICIOUS FOOD]

A few days late, but even her husband's birthday IG post has to be about Ellie! And why did she post an old picture? If nothing else, it proves that she wasn't "always this skinny". She's thin here, but definitely not emaciated like she is now. And she looks a LOT prettier.

Lmao whoops! I'm on my phone so I don't know how to work emojis I guess lol. It was supposed to be a face with squinty eyes and it's tongue sticking out. If that's how anyone enjoys their food I don't want to eat near them lol!

Is this the craziest vlogging you've every seen. Going through the daily journey with conceiving a child. Normally, you look at missing a menstrual cycle and take a test.

The E+J kissing and gazing into each others eyes on vacation was just too much. And now you listen to Ellie has 6 days DPO symptoms.

I hope everyone reads the (viewers) negative comments from a couple of moms who are really struggling with infertility. This journey is not playing well with them at all.

I am already tired of the pink robe.

If they get pregnant this cycle, I would almost put money on the fact that the clips we saw of Ellie talking to the nurse on the phone, removing the IUD, etc., were taken several months ago and she's been on medication for a while. Now, they're staging it all to appear as if they've had a miraculous conception because they're SUCH GOOD PEOPLE. I can totally see them being like, "This is Heavenly Father recognizing the IVF grants, and this is our reward and yadyada."

Think about it, we've seen Ellie acting EXTRA moody and bitchy for the past couple of months. It could just be her natural state becoming more prevalent, it could be hormones, shit, it could even be acne, who knows. I'll put my life on the fact that they aren't telling us everything. Whether Ellie has secretly been on medication, or they truly are building this up to rake in the sympathy views, there's some bull shit going on behind the scenes.

Also, I'd like to point out... Ellie has repeatedly said that she has irregular periods, right? So, which is it going to be: Is she going to "miss" her period (that wasn't scheduled to come anyway) and cue the theatrics by getting tested at the doctor's office, or, is she just miraculously going to begin having regular periods and tell us all about how she got her "cycle" and isn't pregnant this month??

I couldn't get past the comment that said "...it's amazing to get to know your body in this way and to know you are ovulating and having cycles"

God, if I were Ellie that comment alone would make me call it quits. Barf.

[Pency]

Sorry for the double post, but for those of you who have TTC or have IF, maybe you can answer this question for me: How does Ellie know that she's 6 DPO if all she is doing is taking ovulation tests? Those things can be positive for DAYS leading up to ovulation and the only TRUE indicator that you've ovulated is that temperature spike. She hasn't mentioned that at all, she's just assuming that a positive ovulation test means she's ovulated and she starts counting from there? It's crazy to me that somebody who claims to have been through IF would know so little about this stuff.

She doesn't know, she's just an overconfident and uninformed moron.

With an enabling and babying, equally moronic husband.

What HS said. It's really pathetic how little a grown woman knows about how her body works. Especially one who is "struggling with infertility".

Exactly. I don't know, maybe I'm an asshole, but to me I'm going to call BS on her infertility journey. Ellie, talk to me after you've laid in bed at 6 am for the millionth night in a row waiting for your basal thermometer to beep while you think your bladder might explode lol.

Sorry if I'm getting too personal here, but Ellie is making me want to punch things.

[Ducklings4]

I hate to imagine what they're going to do if Ellie isn't pregnant, I don't think I can stand the clickbait titles for much longer

I hate to imagine how they will behave if she is pregnant. If she is I will predict a boy.

I know they need to make "content," but why was Jared measuring the windows like a moron. Yes, your window - that was just installed in your new house - will be the same width at the top, middle and bottom. FFS!!! He looks insane - or is he really that stupid???

[skyblueandblack]

Exactly. She doesn't know. If she was temping her bbt she would have more of an indication- but she's not doin that. I don't like digital opks- but when I have used them in the past- I get positive results on them for generally 4 or so days before ovulation. She has no idea what dpo she is. She's ridiculous.

I am in the camp of "I will be enraged if she's pregnant". But then again- I'm childless 1 week out of my most recent mc and 18 months after a failed adoption and my first mc. Seeing someone who is as crappy of a person as Ellie get another baby will feel like a stab in the gut.

[Cgl33]

Does her Instagram post mean that she got her period? That's what I was thinking with her spotting. Implantation bleeding is extremely rare and it's extremely early for implantation to occur.

I'm glad that their "fans" think they are being overly confident. She seems unstable with this nonsense. It's pretty scary that they think they can handle another. I guess if Calvin gets to be too much, they can put him in "preschool" too.

[skyblueandblack]

Can you let us know what she posted on Instagram? She blocked me awhile back for asking if they were allowing
Penny inside outside of filming.

I WAS GOING TO ASK THIS SAME THING!!! wtf was he doing???????? why the hell was he measuring it that way???

[aggieyorkie]

So did she start her period? That's my takeaway from that Instagram.
