Women in late 20's to mid 30's TTC#1 for 6mos or less
Hi All,
I'm trying to find some women in the same situation as myself - I'm 33 years old and TTC#1 since September 2013. Although I feel like I'm just getting the hang of timing my ovulation and paying attention to my body's symptoms and what they could possibly mean. This last cycle I really thought I was pregnant, and then the "witch" ended up showing up a little later than usual and it threw me off and I got sad, but now I'm just going to try to relax and have some fun with the whole baby making process and try to find some women in the same shoes as myself. So, if you are and you would like to share comments or have questions - please do!
I look forward to finding some cycle buddies!

Better luck this cycle Brandi!
Sara - Sorry got you this cycle. Keep your chin up, you're still early in TTC. I know it sucks to hear that, trust me I do, but you are. If you look under the Tools & Tickers tab on this site and go to Intercourse Timing Calculator - they have all different methods of having intercourse to get pregnant...maybe try a different one every month? I think you should definitely stay horizontal after you BD for at least 20-30 min. I feel like if we get up and go pee right away it's bye bye sperm lol. I laid with pillows under my butt and legs up against wall for 30 min last night - hoping it does the trick...we shall see! I'm on my 3rd day of +opk tests. First two days I had blinking smiley face which means high fertility days and then today I had a still smiley face which means peak. Hoping this is my cycle!!! This is cycle #5 for me TTC so I know how you feel!

Well showed up yesterday so no for me this cycle . And we just found out that my boyfriend has a disc protrusion between his l3 and l4 disc so no BD'ing for us for at least the next month . Or until he gets better. He was told to take a month off work and do lots of therapy, Will hopefully alleviate his symptoms so he can function and not be in pain. I just went back to work after being off myself for two months after carpal tunnel release surgery in November. We have only been TTC for three months now. I am trying to relax and just focus on getting back in the swing of things and taking care of my boyfriend. It will be a good month to just track my symptoms I suppose.

AutieBell - Sorry showed up, sending positive vibes and your way for your next cycle!
If anyone plans on testing around Valentine's Day - I created a board so we can all check in on each other's symptoms and keep eachother company on our TWW period...

SO...I got my BFP!! :))) My EDD is October 8, 2014. But I have a question for you ladies. I had some light bleeding 2 days ago that lasted for 2 days (approx. 3 days before AF was due). Yesterday nothing, it all stopped. So, I took a HPT and faint pink line! This morning I took another and the line is def darker. I have some light spotting today though. Is this normal?? Today was the day AF was due. This is my first time being pregnant so I don't know!

Congrats jpm805!!! I'm glad the baby dust is working!! As for spotting, I would normally suggest that it is implantation spotting.. but that typically occurs around 9 dpo, and not on AF day. But it could most definitely still be implantation (maybe just late implantation?), since you got a BFP! If you are getting a BFP, that means the hcg pregnancy hormone is there, so perhaps google 'implantation spotting on AF day', and see what it says. I would keep testing throughout the week to make sure.
Now *baby dust* to everyone else too!!
