I started temping a few days ago and I am using the ovulation tracker on here.  I am going to kind of use this month as a practice run to see how it works.  So far it has been within .1 degree so I will just assume any kind of jump is a good thing and be sure to take advantage of those days.

kylesmom- if you are going to chart, i highly suggest the book taking charge of your fertlilty, it will tell you all about the temp thing. your temp will within a few points up until you ovulate then it will go up, the only way to really see it is it use a chart and then put a cover line on it. like it can go from 97.2-97.5 then at O time its 97.9 its not huge but on the graph you can see it.Good luck!

Are any of you temping to try and catch yourself ovualting?  Since I haven't had any of the ovulation pains that I did when ttc last time i thought I would try this out.  Does anyone know how much of a jump your temp should take to signify ovulation?

Hey, you can have a period w/o ovulating... it happened to me before and I think it happened again month before last, b/c my periods were always exact to the day, but then randomly came early and has been messed up for 2 months... boo... I don't even know when to test b/c there messed up... I tested yesterday and got a negative :( but I have no idea what to expect... I'm gonna wait two more weeks I guess and see what happens between now and then...

Well this isn't our month either...CD36 AF showed.  My cycles is getting longer, last month was 32 days and this month is 36.  I don't even know how to start figuring out when I ovulate.  With Kyra i had ovulation pains, but I have nothing this time around.  Maybe since I am nursing I'm not ovualting at all.  Ugh...I just don't know!

Sorry to hear that hkenny!

My husband and I pretty much try to do it every day b/c my cycle still isn't regular yet and I dried up in November!  Even when we got prego the first time with Asa, we did the same thing.  I'm not always that into it, but he is, so we just do what we can... lol... TMI!

Anyways, we're just praying that the right timing will take place and God will be in control whether it's this month or some time down the road.  I'm ready, but I still can't really stop thinking about infancy... wow... can I really do that again w/ a toddler????

Hopefully so.  Through Christ, I believe I can... lol.

Awwww kenny sorry to hear she showed, but try to keep your head up!!  By the way, if you have the drive to have sex everyday I am impressed :)  Ever since we had Kyra my sex drive has gone way down hill.  I was told that bfing can cause that so i hope when i wean that things will go back to normal!!  I have weaned two feedings already so I am only nursing/pumping five times a day and I am starting to feel a little more like my old self so hopefully things keep getting better as I go.  Hopefully next month you will have better news!!!

I guess i could have finished my thought...haha I don't know where my brain has been the past few days :)  Kyra is going to be 1 on May 11th and isn't walking or anything fun like that yet.  

I keep thinking AF is going to show up, but I really haven't had too many symptoms yet.  Last week my breasts were really sore, but that has been it.  The last few months I have had cramps for a week before AF, but nothing this month.  I am hoping it is a good sign, but I am going to wait until atleast the end of this week before I test.  Good luck to everyone and I hope we can get some BFP soon!

We started ttc a couple months ago.  I am still bfing so my cycles are really weird.  Right now i am on CD34 and still no AF, so I am hoping maybe this is our month!

hey, y'all.  yeah, Asa started walking on his own about 3 weeks ago.  it was just kinda all of a sudden.  he had been standing for a long time and i was wondering why he wouldn't brave that first step.  he'd just stand there in the middle of the floor alone, looking at things.  then one day he took one step... the next two days, he took three steps, the next day five, then from that point on, he's walking everywhere. he only crawls when he's playing with his toys really.

we just started trying again to conceive 5 days ago... lol, so I don't know how long... I've had my cycle already 5 times, but we just decided this month to start trying again.  praying is my staple.  God allowed me to get pregnant one week after i got off the pill the first time and I give Him all the praise.  I don't know about this time.  Just praying and believing.

My cycle was 31 days for 3 months consecutively, but then I don't know what happened, it came a week early one month, then the next month was only 23 days... very strange, so I don't know when I'm ovulating... but we're just believing that when God is ready, it'll happen... :)

My mom had 6 kids in 7 years and she managed... lol... I'm not going for a record.  I am trying to space them out a little bit, but one year between pregnancies isn't bad.  the first will be a few months shy of 2 years when #2 comes even if it did happen right away... :)  

I have been dizzy, nauseous, just want to break out crying... ugh, no idea, we've only been trying for 5 days, so I figure it's just me being a woman and prob. not preg. symptoms already... lol

kudos to you for pumping for 6 months!  i ha te pumping!

My dd will be 1 on May 11th.This was our 1st cycle ttc again. I am also still breast feeding so my cyles are still wierd. I have had 3 af's though. I only started charting last cycle and this one, last one was 38 days long.before my dd it was always 31 days long so i'm not too sure when i am Oing. today is cd31 and i have not tested yet....had some dizziness which i never had with dd, a few headaches and cramping.Could all be af symptoms though :(
I'm so nervous to test! i hate BFN's.
My mom doesnt know we are actually ttc but told me a few weeks ago i am crazy if we ttc anytime before she is 2. i guess i know it will be hard but wont it be hard no matter how far apart they are?

My dd is not walking yet, she stands up while holding onto things and walks around furniture but no walking.

good luck! baby dust to all!!

Hope all goes well with you and enjoy trying!!!! Didn't this last year go by so fast my daughter will be one May 21st.  I think this summer will be full of adventure for our little one, we are all about the out doors so lots of camping this summer!!! It's so much fun watching her explore outside and learn what trees, rocks, lakes, sand etc. are her new favorite word for evertyhing outside "Dir" (dirt) :D just curious when did your babe start walking?  Lexis has been walking holding our hand for the past few months, some days she just takes off on her own but most of the time she wants to hold hands with someone ;) Take care and hopefully talk again soon!!!

Hi, JenLex, my son will be a year old on May 6th.  I tried BF, but I was in the Emergency Room when he was 6 days old and I gave him bottles for a couple days.  He would not latch on again after that, so I pumped for 6 months!!  It was complete torture!!  I just wanted him to have as much BM as possible... as soon as I stopped pumping, my cycle came back.  Since he's walking and using a cup now we decided to go ahead and start trying again.  My mom said she BF all six of us and she still got pregnant again every time, so if you want to try again, I say go for it.  I will be praying for you for sure.
