Hello everyone! Thank you so much for your words of support, encouragement and for making me smile! I have been so down in the dumps lately, which is why I haven't been online in a few days. Seeing your replies has really lifted my spirits! I will reply to you in the order you commented
Hi there MummyKP! Thank you for commenting on my post. I take OPKs but I don't recommend charting your temperature, only because it gets really stressful. You have to wake up at the same time everyday and any slight change can cause the temperature to be 'wrong'. I don't do it anymore because it was too much for me. I had regular cycles before I began taking birth control, then while on birth control my cycles shortened by a few days. Now, after I stopped bc, my cycles are very irregular. My first cycle was 150+ days. It was my first month ttc, so I thought I was pregnant.. I waited a while and after many, many negative pregnancy tests, I realized there was something else going on. I went to my doctor and she said it's common for women to have anovulatory cycles after quitting bc, so she put me on a prescription Provera to start a period, and then Clomid to induce ovulation. I am positive that Clomid will do the trick! Thank you for your positivity.
2015newmom, I know how frustrating it can be, but it's easier with a support group. I am willing to be that for you
I, too, have had friends get pregnant without them trying, and it's bittersweet. I'm happy for them, but wish I could have a baby too. Hmm, the steps I am taking? I have been on prenatals for almost a year, but take clomid for ovulation. My husband is the real 'MVP' because he is on Fertilaid, Countboost and Motilityboost, along with his multivitamins. He also takes cold-ish showers and makes sure his (nuts lol) don't get overheated. I'm interested in the prep pills! Please tell me more
Hello Akirkland, aww I love hearing success stories of women on Clomid. It makes the hot flashes and side effects a little more bearable.
Thank you for the positivity!
CMLittle719, hi to you
I look forward to talking to you more!
everything, I hope you "caught that eggy!" as I have heard it put on here! I am so happy you got a positive opk. That's so exciting! I really wish you the best. I'm always here to talk
Hello Ready2pop, we seem to be in the same boat and I can really relate to you. I'd love to hear more about your thoughts and feelings. I'm hoping we all have babies soon
Marriedandttc, oh it's so great that you have a regular cycle now! it makes it so much easier to keep track of, especially when you're ttc. I downloaded the app you mentioned, so thank you for recommending it to me
Let's keep talking!!
Peasandcarrot, first of all, I love your name on here! It's really cute! Please don't worry or stress about it. I know it's hard because I worry myself. We have each other to talk to though, so it will make it easier
I stopped charting, too. It was just too much for me to take my temperature at the same time every morning. My doctor told me not to worry about bbt charting, but to take the ovulation predictor kits instead. I do that every month and it helps me know when I'm going to ovulate. I would recommend opks but not charting
Lozzielaula, hi there back at ya!
I've had a tough time emotionally, but I'm still trying to stay positive. It really helps me to know that there are other women who understand how I feel. So thank you for replying to my post! I wish you the best luck and look forward to keeping in touch with you.
Sydfreeman, you and I have alot in common. I feel really close to you because I started ttc in April of 2014. I went to my doctor because I was scared, but you are inspiring to me because you have been able to stay secure all these months. I really hope you are pregnant soon! I know how tough it feels. I never thought it would be this hard to make a baby. I'd love to be friends and keep in touch with you as we continue our journey
xLottiex, hello to you! I just downloaded the app, ovuview! I look forward to playing with it
I didn't ovulate this month, but am on some medicine so that I will ovulate next month. I hope you do too
Caseyren, congratulations on getting a positive ovulation test! I always get really excited when I get one and want to bd right away haha. Preseed is awesome, I love using it. I also didn't tell anyone I was ttc at first, but now that it's been almost a year I have let it slip to a few close friends. I wish you the best of luck! I look forward to hearing back from you!
Sam10, thank you so much for commenting on my post! you are always welcome to talk with me! I know it must be tough to be ttc for that long, but know I am always here to talk or to listen if you need it. I haven't been in your shoes, but I can imagine. You are strong. I feel good things about you.
Hi there Petal1, good luck this month! Yes, I have felt envious before but I try to stay positive and know my time will come eventually. It also helps to have people to talk to. Like me! If you ever need to talk, you can message me.
Gosh, I am just so ecstatic to have people to talk to on babyandbump! If any of you want to direct message me, feel free. I will keep checking on this forum for your replies. Thanks again for being here for me, I will also be here for you too. Best of luck and baby dust!!
Love, peachcheeks
we BD days 22,24, and 27. We'll do it again tonight and tomorrow!!! We also use pre-seed. I've heard so many success stories from it so I thought we should give it a try!
