TTC- First timers

If you are TTCing for your first baby, please gather here.
Lets share our frustration... well that is the least we can do besides trying :-)
all other, moms, please share your TTC#1 experiences.
(Accidental parents -> you are lucky)

How many months have you been TTCing
Myself: 7 going towards 8

I am soo frustrated, sooo jealous when someone talks abt their kid/expected baby...
I feel like it is such a long/unpredictable process....
Is it just me? or everyone (or most of them) sail in this boat??

ladies,reading your experiences is rilly eye opening.For those still i the 1st year of ttc pliz don't stress so much,i know of pple who have got pregnant in the latter months.it will happen.jus kip the faith all of you.
i'm in 2nd month trying,ovulating soon so i hope it happens this tym otherwise i'll start getting a bit worried but not stressed.but i think letting things do naturally is the best way,ie if you don't have any medical fertility issues.
anyway,praying for u all who r ttc and those with bfp's congrats!

Hey all,

I am not sure what to DO! :(

Pls help.

27, Been married for 4 yrs now. We were on precaution (condoms) for the first 2 years. And last year I had a large ovarian cyst removed. 3 months ago my USG showed that I was ovulating properly. Been trying which ever month possible since 6 months as someimes we miss my fertile dates (husband's meeting, stress etc).

Since last month my DH is on motility drugs (for 3 mnths). He is overweight but the doc doesn't ask him to lose weight?

My AF showed up today and my doctor has given me some ovu stimulating tabs and suggested another USG S for ov study. If I am ov properly then she suggested IUI. Do you think IUI is needed b4 my DH completes his course? Should I go for a second opinion? We haven't even tried for one complete year. I am confused.

Frustrated!

I guess in your case its good that you got your period.  Yeah, there are many sites that can tell you your most fertile days if you are strict about your charting.  No need to waste money.  It can be put to better use, may be for your baby :-)

I cried yesterday because I didnt want to start all over again..... so this is not my month either.  Hmm.... I am 10days behind you in the cycle.  

Good Luck &
Keep me posted.

hey there!! yep, had my period! lol it was last week and lasted about 3 days this time, so i am counting down the days, and actually started charting, but when my "free" month is up you have to start paying money to chart on the site, and i dont have the money to do it, so we will see what happens, but i have found some websites that tell you good chances of conceiving, and both of the websites have the same days so we will see what happens :) but today is CD 9 - i dont quite understand all the vocabulary yet, but hopefully these days work out
