Newbie to TTC, looking for other newbie buddies! :) 33 ladies, 6 BFPs!!

Sending lots of :dust: your way ladies!!!!

I've heard its good to stay lying down after BD and also having an orgasm to kind of rake it all in :thumbup:

Still waiting for AF to show up....
 
I don't know if this helped us or not, but I'll share anyway ;) after bd'ing I would lay down for 5-10 minutes with my legs hung in the air. LOL sounds weird I know, but it worked for us last time and it worked this time. My husband always laughed at me lol

Hey, I do the same thing. :D I just lay on my back in the fetal position with a pillow under my butt for a good 5-10 mins after :P

Apparently this was how I was conceived (yes, I know my own conception story; have my whole life lol) so I figure it obviously works :P

Oh good, I thought you would all make fun of me lol. I told my husband that I can't be the only woman that does it lol. And hey it worked for us twice :)
 
I'm I'm Ashley! 21 and TTC number 1! I'm on CD 11 and hoping to ovulate soon. Testing the 22nd!
 
I had my implanon out on October 27th and started then! I didn't get my period until November 22nd.. Currently on cd12 and hoping I ovulate soon. I'm staying away from charting and opks until January. I I don't get my Xmas BFP I will be pulling out every resources! Vitamins, opks, charting, temping, CM everything! Lol

Oh cool! I was on implanon as well. :) Same thing happened with me too, got it out Sept 23, first period came back October 28th.

That's actually a good thing though, you and I could of easily not seen our periods for months! O: My sis didn't see hers for 4 months.

I hope you get your BFP this month! (PS. Doc say its good to start vitamins as early as possible. My doc said 8 week before conception is best, if possible ;) )
 
I'll buy some after work! A multivitamin with folic acid right?! And I'm avoiding stores because I know if I go in I'll buy opks and be devistated if I'm not Oing! So I posted another forum but I'll just ask here- do any of you get diharrea when you ovulate? The past two days I have and my fertility app says I could be ovulating. I don't have EWCM but my panties are drenched wet. It's like a clear wet fluid.. Idk! So confusing

I don't personally! I tend to a bit when on AF since it upsets my stomach, could be same for you and O. Otherwise, it could just be a coincidence! Wet and slippery is good! That is actually also fertile CM. Some women don't get EWCM, so don't worry if you don't (I kind of get it, but maybe only a patch or two of it, nothing major). Essentially, the more slippery it is, the better it is for sperm to swim through. :)

I don't know about the diarrhea part, but my panties do get wet with CM while I'm ovulating... sometimes it's watery and sometimes it's EW consistency.

My FF told me I ovulated on the 29th. My temperature finally spiked on the chart. Once I get paid I plan on ordering a BBT thermometer and once I start my next cycle, I will get up at the same time every day to take my temperature. So, I am 4DPO now! I had EWCM the 28th, 29th, and 30th, so pretty much the day before, day of, and day after ovulation. The day of ovulation, I had some cramping and left ovary pain, so I predicted that I was ovulating then anyways (CD17), and FF confirmed it once my temp stayed up for a few days. Maybe I'll add my chart on here, I see that some people have their chart in their sig.

DH says I have been super quick-tempered and moody lately (although I admit it's been for the past couple of months, not just the past couple of weeks). I wonder if it's just getting used to married life or if it's hormonal, or both? Hmmm. Another weird thing, my hair started falling out in clumps (during/right after showering) yesterday and today. Normally, when I comb it there's a few stray hairs, but I'd run my hand through my hair that first time and my whole hand was covered. Gross. I know everyone loses lots of hair every day but that's not usual for me. My hair is thin enough to begin with, I can't afford to lose any more! :nope:
 
Oh yay! Fiancé and I DTD on Sunday and will again tonight! He works 15 hour days so he's usually tired! But i refuse to miss that egg

And yes, sorry, a multivitamin with folic acid is good! I think they say 400 mcg at least (mine personally has 800mcg) then I hear DHA, iron and Vitamin D is also good :)
 
Hi ladies!! Hope I'm not bugging anyone with this but here's what happened: I've been taking opks for the past week or so, but was getting discouraged because it seemed like they were getting darker and then lighter.:wacko: But last night I felt like my right ovary was a little sore. At least it felt like there was something going on down there.... and I was getting quite nervous because I was wondering if something bad would happen. But anyways I just took an opk and it looks darker than all the other ones Ive taken!What do you guys think????

Looks positive to me!!! BD TIMEEEE
 
Hi Ladies! So a bunch of my TTC buddies on FB grabbed some psychic readings for fun! I got mind in tonight if you want to read it! This one is from Cheri22, I'm also expecting one from Spirit. I'm not taking too too much heed into this but I'm really interested in some parts! Here it is under the spoiler:

GIRL - DECEMBER so this is either birth month, conceive month or the month you find out in.
They are showing your daughter to always be smart. The type that is going to be able to figure things out on her own. She likes to do it her way. So when a teacher gives her an assignment, although the end result will be the same, she would rather do things that make her more comfortable. Something that she enjoys.

She is always mellow and patient. Has no problems with waiting her turn and certainly is kind enough to let other people go first and does not bother her in the slightest.

She is someone who is always going to be up for anything. You can take her pretty much anywhere with you and shes going to have fun. Turn it into a time that is very entertaining and always up beat. She does not demand things and seems to be accepting of whatever comes her way. Often sharing whatever she does have with people less fortunate.

When ti comes to career paths, they are showing her linked to working in an accounting position.

When ti comes to marriage I am seeing her closer to 26. They will have two girls of their own.




GIRL - JULY so this is either birth month, conceive month or the month you find out in

When it comes to your daughter, she is always going to be upbeat and fun. Always the type that will reach out and just make sure that everyone else is having a good time. if they are not, she is the type that is always going to be able to make them laugh, take their minds off what is happening and cheer them up. Its hard to be in a bad mood when your around her.

They give the name "Hailey" so not sure if this rings any connection for you at all.

I am seeing her as someone who is always going to be a goal oriented person. She has a board in her room that keeps her on track and seems like she is the one that will ensure that she hands things in on time.

Your daughter is always going to love to get to know people. is often very much a "party" type person. not that she is wild, but is more social. loves to interact with people and see what its all about.

They are showing her as someone who is always really creative. I am seeing her being really good with drawing and really loves charcoal, and drawing people. The more to the person, the happier she is.

When ti comes to career paths they are showing her working in an administrative position.

When ti comes to marriage I am seeing her closer to 25. They will have two girls of their own



BOY - OCTOBER so this is either birth month conceive month or the month you find out in
They are showing me someone who is always young. He tends to be the one that acts more on impulse and how he is feeling at the moment. Its not that its not the right solution to what he is doing, but at times ends up making more work for himself and taking a bit longer to get it done.

They are showing me someone who is always going to be a kid at heart. Does not matter what age he is, it seems like he is the one that is always going to want to try the latest gadgets. He seems like he is always going to love anything robotic and seems like using race cars (remote control) is something that he is going to enjoy. They are showing him as a pre-teen actually holding clubs, where everyone comes over and plays on this course that he has made out of mounds of dirt. Its like an obstacle course and I really feel that your son and husband have put it together.

When he gets older, will always take a more mechanical way of looking at things and becomes quite handy around the house. Although he keeps himself entertained and busy he will always make sure that he keeps time for his family.

When ti comes to marriage I am seeing him closer to 27. They will have two boys of their own.

When it comes to career paths, they are showing him linked to working in a mechanic position.


What's really interesting to me is that this reading was for up to 4 children and she stopped at 3. I personally want 3 children, my husband tends to disagree but I definitely want 3.

For daughter #1, she sounds like the same personality as me. Her career is interesting because my husband is a tax accountant. And long story short is that my hubby will eventually be running the company he works for currently. (He works for his best friend and his family) So, I sort of had the thought that maybe he would still be working there and maybe our daughter would end up working for her daddy? Also the fact it says December is really exciting! I'm hoping that it means conceive month and it's this December (not next! lol) otherwise if it's birth month then I probably won't see a BFP till March...

For Daughter #2, she sounds more like a mix of my husband and I. The drawing is interesting because I am an artist and work in the arts.

For Son, he sounds EXACTLY like my husband! Everything sounds just like him and the fact that she mentioned they would do that activity together sounds so much like something my husband would do. He already does these sorts of activities with our nieces and nephews.

Anyway, I'll let y'all know when I get my second reading. I'm excited to see if anything is the same!
 
That's cool! I have never had anything like that done and I didn't know people did it for unborn children too. So they just did it on Facebook? I wouldn't be comfortable going somewhere to have that done but I am much more comfortable online and I'm always curious about everything.

I just took my BBT when DH woke me to say goodbye when he left for work. It's staying well above cover line but I'm only 5dpo so I know it's supposed to do that whether I am pregnant or not. I just think I'm going to go crazy though with all this because it's only cycle 1 for crying out loud and I want this SO bad and I know how unusual it is to get pregnant on the first try. I already know I'm going to be SO disappointed if we don't conceive within the next few months. I'm an overachiever haha I want my BFP this month!

FF tells me to test on December 18, by the way. That would be 4 days after a missed period. If I am in that situation, I'll wait until then to test rather than drive myself crazy and test over and over again too early. Here's to praying the witch doesn't show up!!!

I think I may have had a baby dream in some way (don't remember at all) because I woke up just really really wanting this more than usual. Babies are on my mind!!

They have their own sites they did it from. But I took advantage of Spirit's Black Friday deal on Facebook. Anyway, there are a few people that do fertility readings. So, they talk about unborn children. Spirit also does stuff about your future pregnancy and things to specifically help you conceive. So, I'll be interested to see what she says!

I know how you feel! I was hoping for the first month as well even though I knew it was gonna be a long shot. :P Personally, we didn't time things right so I knew I was out the first month, but I still hoped! Honestly, I've been finding it easier to deal with the longer I am TTC. I'm sure you will too! (if it even goes that long!)

Oh and I say you can start testing as early as 11DPO. Or, if you want to wait until missed period then go for it the day after~! I feel like 4 days after is too long to wait hahahaha

Babydust!!
 
That psychic reading stuff is kind of fun :) I don't necessarily believe in any of it, but its fun nonetheless!

Do any of you ladies OH's take any kind of vitamins? I know that zinc is important for their little swimmers :thumbup: I was wondering if anyone had a good brand to recommend!

I am currently on CD 12, so O should be coming up in about 5-6 days. I'm still carrying on like normal and am hoping I can use my seductive powers to change my husbands mind about TTC this cycle ;)

He hasn't hasn't had any interviews yet, but one place will have an opening on Jan 1, and said they'd call him in for an interview later this month. FX!
