The Wannabe Mamas!
I am starting this thread for a group of ladies that already frequently communicate through journals and PMs. Since we already stalk one another's journals and countdown pages... I thought it might be nice for us to have a discussion forum, where we can frequently communicate our day to day ups and downs. Please re-introduce yourself and give us a summary of your journey to date!
My story:
DH and I have been TTC #1 since June 2012. In October, we found out that DH has a varicocele causing poor morphology (1-2%). This makes it difficult for us to conceive on our own. We are on some looong wait lists to see specialists. We need to see a urologist about possible surgery and a fertility specialist about possible IUI or IVF. Right now we are loking at 8-10 month wait times, but we might be able to get DH into a urologist much sooner if we can get into a clinic in the next province over. We are currently working toward making that happen! The surgery has about 50/50 odds of working. But we are hoping it works for us!

Well, I have a renewed urgency to ttc again lol only because I saw the endocrinologist today and got new scripts for my meds :) she wants to wait a few weeks becfore doing blood work to get my thyroid regulated sice I was runnig out and taking it sporadically. She was really excited the met got my af regulated! She mentioned clomid but said thats up to my obgyn who I see next thursday!!!!!!!!!!!! Of course by then I will have already ovulated lol so hopefully he'll let me do a round of clomid since af will right around the corner after that appoinment....all this makes me so so so excited to get serious about ttc :) Hubby better watch out this week ha ha since it's mamma fertile week lmao!!!

Good luck with the bd'ing, Michelle! I'm so glad that everything looks bright for you right now and that you are getting some answers and are getting regulated! I am in my 2ww... I got home from work on Friday and I just knew it had to be positive. I don't usually test more than 1x a day, but I hadn't gone to the bathroom in awhile and thought I'd test and it was positive! It was positive again Saturday morning and then was negative on Sunday. I'm the queen of bd'ing too much and this time I cut back a lil. We took a break last Wed but bd'd Thursday, Friday and Sunday morning. Hopefully that will be enough! We'll see! But on a side note we found a neighborhood we really hope to build a house in and the timing of us being able to move in is right at this month's due date! Haha! So yeah... Because of that I should be pregnant this time around! Its always when it would be hardest! ;) Started my progesterone last night, so we'll see! Hope we see some more BFP's soon!

My body is tying to ovulate but I think its having a hard time. last month I O'd on CD 14 and today I am CD13 and no hint of a LH surge anywhere...darn I bet I O late. My left ovary has been missing in action for 7 months I think, I always get O pains on the right side. I hope I O soon because waiting for O just isn't as fun as the two week wait besides the BD :) Any natural ways to bring on Ovulation? I take my prenatal every day, drink lots of water and have been low stress...sigh. Anyone else have any news?
