Thanks trying! That was our last dance. We did "I've had the time of my life" from Dirty Dancing. Everyone kept telling us to do "the lift" we were like ah what the hell...everyone cleared a path, I ran, jumped and we did the lift! It was so awesome. I love that pic

Well I had a positive opk this am!!!! So glad I took the sticks to work today. Got some bd time in with a softcup and preseed too so hopefully this will be our month!!!!! Gotta get DH to BD again tonight. Woohoo.
Trying - have you been using the opks?

yours too! nice to see faces. seems we are all around the same age too! Im 28.

 

[goldstns]

I have 2 random questions....
1. usually I can feel me Ov when it is my left side, but right side I don't feel (I believe this month is rt side). Anyone know why?
2. TMI-ish: is not being circumcised cause issues when TTC?

This thread feels so warming! I think I'm gonna test around the 18th. Af came Jan 22 and I started Chlomid 150mg cycle on days 5-9. I had an ultrasound yesterday (Feb 1) and I had a dominate follicle measuring 2cm (20mm) so I was given my ovidrel injection. I started my opk on cycle day 8 and I do it in the morning when I wake up and at night when I get home from work. I got a negative opk yesterday morning and when I took it last night it was positive. It's still + this morning. I'm a little confused because I read it takes 36 hours for the ovidrel to work, but it was 12 hours after when I got a +. The hubby and I had sex as soon as I came home from the doc and I woke him up when I saw a + opk last night. I plan on bd tonight so I can cover my bases.

welcome! Questions for you.... how long have you been TTC. I am just wondering how long of TTC did you go see a fertility specialist.

Jury - Another question for you, of course, if you don't mind.
How did you and your wife decide it would be you to conceive and not her? Are there any plans for her to conceive in the future?

I don't mind questions at all! She's never really had a desire to be pregnant, just to have kids. I on the other hand have always wanted to experience pregnancy. So it was an easy decision. We have talked about wanting to have kids from both of us, so maybe down the road she will carry, but we haven't decided for sure.

Golds - My DH is not circumcised and none are are any of the men in his family (not a Mexican custom). No issues with having babies whatsoever! We didn't circumcise our son cuz hubs isn't, and I figured it was just one less thing for a new mom to worry about!

We tried for about three years before we went to my gyn. She ordered a SA for my hubby and when it came back with no sperm she referred him to an urologist. All together its bern about 7 years now and the road is finally looking great!

 

[HWPG]

PDF, which Portland?
I'm just about to turn 32. I feel like an old lady compared to y'all.
Cd83726383. No ov yet. Please release the egg! But stilldtd, so that's a good thing

 

[pdxmom]

Oh well Portland oregon

 

[HWPG]

Stupid auto correct, sorry, not PDF, pdx! I'm in Portland Maine, that's why I was asking, and it's chilly but also lovely and brisk out. And cold.

 

[tryingandhope]

TTC- that's such a great story and pic! And yes I am using OPK's this month which is new for me. I used a couple last month but ran out in the middle of the O wait. Lots of cramps today and sore bb's this afternoon and very hungry tonight again so sounds like O is impending! DTD the last night so here's hoping for a BFP at the end of the month!

 

[jury3]

Hi ladies! Well, it looks like I will O sometime between Feb 11th and 18th. I will start opks next Friday. I'm excited and surprisingly relaxed...at least for now! lol Good luck ladies!

Hey girl...its nice tht ur here too...we can continue this what we started last mth...

PDX-You bet! It sounds like we are pretty close together too. I'm cd4 today.

I'm 28 too, I'll be 29 in 2 weeks though. Really hoping this is our month ladies!

 

[BubsMom17]

I'm 30, so it does sound like we are right around the same age range! : )

 

[tryingandhope]

So the bottom is CD 8 and the top is today CD 11. Getting close right?

 

[jury3]

It's kind of hard to see, but I can see a line on the top one...definitely getting closer!
