CD1, April 21.... Lets get together!!!

[claudia_ann]

Hey ladies,

So I am starting a new cycle today... AF came and found me.

This will mark month number 9 of TTC #1. Lets get together and pool our positive energy towards each of us getting our BFPs this month!!

 

[Clareybeary]

Hi,

I came on at the start of this week but have really loooong cycles so it's going to feel like forever until I OV again. Can I join you? This is the start of month #5.....

 

[aquaria6]

CD 3 of cycle 7 for me. Can I join?

 

[AshleyTTC]

CD2 for me - likely going to O on CD16, will be IUI #2. Am TTC #1.

 

[VSubasic]

CD1 for me I really thought I was pregnant this month..I am going on my fourth cycle. I know I'm ovulating, but I bought ovulation test strips online today just to make sure for next cycle. Good Luck hun!! Lets go though this cycle together my cycles are average 31 days long.

CD 3 for me too. 2nd month of trying with clomid. Good luck to all of us! I hope we all get BFP this month.

 

[Hena]

What a wonderful idea!

Today is CD1 for me, usually have 28-29 day cycles but came today--6 days late and after I finally tested yesterday and got a

Going into month 4, have NO idea when to expect OV now, but love the idea of turning disapointment into positive energy for a month of May full of good luck ladies!

 

[claudia_ann]

Welcome ladies!!!
Would love to hear updates about how this cycle goes for everyone!!

I'm keeping really positive this month and hoping this will be our month...
I'm keeping my eye on my ovulation date (last month I ovulated on day 17 of my cycle) and going to make things happen.. LOL..

Babydust to everyone!!!

CD 1 was April 21 for me as well. Here's hoping this is our month!

The weather is sooooo gorgeous here (in the UK) - I'm loving the sunshine! Went to a party last night and had some cocktails so I'm really trying to relax this month. Still got ages until I OV which is a right pain but hey, if I worry about it, it'll delay it further! Happy Easter folks!

 

[Hena]

Greetings and happy Easter from beautiful Alsace, home of the majestic stork!


I'm here spending Easter weekend with my in-laws. You've inspired me to focus on the positive and I AM! The weather is glorious, the wine is excellent, and I don't have to worry about DH's family guessing anything's up

Hope you're all enjoying your weekend as much! If I see a stork, I'll be sure to put in a good word for all of you! (the one in my pic is from two weeks ago, about 15km from where I'm sitting now)

It's rain, rain, and more rain here in Kentucky. Unfortunately it suits my mood all too well. Please tell me more of lovely weather (and wine). I need to be reminded that this is a process to be enjoyed. Beginning a new yoga regimine on Monday to say goodbye to the stress. Thank you ladies for your positivity.

I'm not always this serious btw. I think it's the rain. Hope everyone is having a nice, relaxing weekend.

Hi,

It really does feel like forever! This whole process is making time slow down so much.... I have certain people in real life (clients) who I see on a monthly basis - and usually a month seems so short, in that it seems like they were just there a week instead of a month ago. Yet with this whole process, the days between IUI and ovulation seem like weeks instead of days. Getting from iui to 14dpo was an eternity! Now, waiting for ovulation and thus the 2ww, no matter how long and tortuous that actual wait is, is even longer than the 2ww itself!! How is that for a riddle?

 

[Hena]

Aquaria, yoga sounds like a great idea! I should try that too. I used to do Pilates twice a week, but haven't in the past 2 years or so, I miss it! It's something we can continue after our BFPs too, so all the better!

Hope all you ladies are passing the time well. I'm looking forward to the end of AF so we can DTD just for fun for a change, hehe

 

[Hena]

Hello again everyone, I hope you all had a nice weekend. I wanted to let you know that I saw a total of 6 storks this weekend! One was nesting, the other 5 were together in a field. I'm not really a susperstitious person, but it can't hurt, right? ;-)

 

[leylak]

April 21 was CD (-1) for me.
TTC #1
Month #8
Friends' pregnancy announcement #I LOST COUNT

 

[Mrs Mc]

April 21 was CD1 for me too. Finished AF yest so we're enjoying dtd without any stress for next few days! Going away when I'm ov to stay with family but it's not going to stop us. Will just have to be quiet!!

Friends' pregnancy announcement #I LOST COUNT

I know exactly how you feel. Both of my best friends have due dates a day apart, one on her first month ttc and the other baby makes three, "Oops." Not to mention that a close high school friend just found out she's pregnant and she has a 6 month old. A "surprise.". Seriously, it is getting rediculous.

But, I am trying not to think about it even though my two bf meet every Wednesday to "whine and wine." Our wine has turned to water

Again, not thinking about it. Trying to be positive. It is not a race.

It is really hard though.

 

[leylak]

Exactly aquaria, it is not a race. But I cannot stop comparing myself (and my age) to everyone including my mother. If I know a woman's and her first child's age, I figure up when she became a mother. I even compare myself to men who have children.
It took me a year to convince DH. He is already regretful for that but every month I keep telling him off. DH suggested we NTNP but I know it is too late for that. I think I am obsessed and I cannot help it.

I tend to do the same thing, leylak, but we have to learn to let it go. Everyone says that stress will only make the process take longer (as if that would help me relax...)

My trick for this month is to have as much fun as possible with DH and think about what we'll do when we finally have our own LO The positive thinking is actually helping so far...let's see how long I can keep it up
