Hi Ladies!!
I would just like to introduce myself quickly!
I am 25 years old, my fiance david is 26. We have no children together and he has no children of his own. I have 2 daughters ages 5 and 7 from a previous marriage that ended 3 years ago.
Me and David have been ttc for 15 months now with no bfp at all. Neither of us have been tested and we don't plan to. We would rather not know. My dr thinks it is him, not me, since i conceived very easily with both my daughters (once while i was on bcp, and the second time within the first month of ttc)
I am currently on CD31 and 13dpo with BFN everyday I'm just thinking AF will be here within the next couple days so i can start over again.
I temp, chart, and use opk's and thats it.
Hoping to get to know some of you so i can have some ladies to talk to while i obsess each cycle lol.
here is a link to my ff chart for those interested
