First Cycle TTC!!!
Okay so a couple weeks ago I wrote to tell you I finally had my first AF since Zoë has been born which makes this our first OFFICIAL cycle of TTC (wasn't cycling before due to exclusively breastfeeding). We're so so so excited! Today is CD13 so over the next 1-2 weeks I could be Oing!!!
Anyone else starting a new cycle of TTC?! Where my girls at?!

wow - very exciting for you, I hope this is a good month for you and you get your BFP. I am starting in a few months and am hoping for a VBAC2 I have an appintment with a new obgyn on the 5 Oct and am going armed with my birth notes. I can't wait to just feel like I am getting somewhere and am not just in a waiting game - I know you can't plan everything but as I think this might be my llast i don't want to rush and regret anything. Anyway good luck and i look forward to hearing all your exciting news and updates.
Thank u... It is amazing... I'm in shock still but took my prenatal and was like this is for u baby it felt so good to be able to say that ... At last.
Just wanted to wish you luck and send some positive thoughts while you are TTC. It' s such an exciting an emotional time. Enjoy yourself!
Yes joy... My first born was actually due in June but was induced and she was born on may 23.... And this one is due around the same time.... All u ladies ttc I hope u all get the b f p.... :) I'm so happy rite now.... Ten mo of ttc and finally. :)
Well I have been spotting for 4 days now with brown/dark red I had a weird period last cycle so I'm just going with the flow, this cycle I will chart my bbt and buy some OPT's hope the 7th month is the charm :) good luck ladies and SSBD
Julia- congrats! I saw your other thread but was nursing the baby so I couldn't type at that moment. So so so excited for you! That would make it a May baby, right?
I just hope I actually ovulate. I've been feeling weird sensations from what I am guessing to be the right ovary but I also have cystic ovaries so I don't read too much into "feelings" since it could be anything. We're just going to BD and have fun! My husband is being so amazing this time around, he's so on board and he's vying for that son with a vengeance! LOL! But he will be happy no matter what the baby would be.
So I've read some interesting facts on how to increase your chance of one gender over the other and if you want a boy you should eat foods high in sodium and red meats. My husband jokingly tells me to eat a steak every day, ha ha! What God wills, however, will be done no matter what we do in that regard.
I guess PCOS causes a more hostile environment for the sensitive "Y" carrying sperm (makes boys!) so we may just end up with all girls. We'll be like Little Women, ha ha ha ha!

Joy I am with you once again. I am now on cd4 so AF is still going but should be stopping in the next 2 to 3 days. I will try opk's this cycle I was going to try bbt charting but decided I would just stick with opks for now. Good Luck Joy!
julianovak- its a very high possiblity u are! And I'm not trying to get ur hopes up. But I have a friend who's kids are 2 weeks apart bc she only Os one time a year and that could also be ur case! She tried for like 2 years for her first. And had given up during her o time gotten pregnant and when she got pregnant with her 2nd that's what they told her!
Ok thank You! I bought the 2 in 1 pack... I think ill test tomo morning.... I have another one ill use on day due AF. Im so ready for another negative though! I really am.
With my first child i tested positive 5 days before due period. im hoping this one detects pregnancy that early too.

I LOVE the clear blue digital test. That's typically all I ever buy. I think I broke down and bought some first response standard test when I found out I was pregger last time b/c DH or I could believe I was pregnant. You do however have to wait longer to take them b/c of them requireing soooo much hcg. I normally test the day before or on the day I was due and it came back positive! Good luck. Before my last pregnancy (miscarried aug 17th) we had tried for a year and 5 months...so 16 months....ugh it was heart wrenching! I finally said the heck with it and turned up pregnant.
Exciting SO happy for you!!!
Im actually due for AF on the 12th... This is our 10th cycle TTC.... Im giving up. Its taken a long time.... Im not "charting" or taking my temps or any of that. Just basically not using anything to stop pregnancy. My husband is ok with either just our daughter or with me getting pregnant.... its either or for him. For me on the other hand im like going nuts.
I bought clear blue easy digital tests. Contemplating on when to take them, in a way i have a feeling i may be pregnant bc ive been awfully bloated and just crampy lately and af is still a few days away... also its my Bday on sep 14th. So im thinking that would be a great surprise. And to top that surprise off.... The baby would be due the same month my first child was born.... UUHHH too much emotions.
When is the best time to test..... ??? and are the clearblue easy digitals a good test?
Good Luck Joy!!!!!

I'm here present and accounted for! Yet again I am here right with you ttc! I am hoping that the doctors can give me some kind of info about what's been going on with me if I can EVER get them to send my records from my old doctors to them (they left town in January). I'm on CD 17! Don't really know if I ovulated and haven't really tracked it. I'm hoping to start bbting again with this next cycle. I've been through hell and back here in the last couple of weeks. I have to go in today for one more blood test to make sure that my hcg is at 0.
