Hi all, I've been following for a couple of months, but this is my first time posting. AF showed her ugly face today, so CD 1 for me. [sad] Here's hoping for an October baby! [h5]

koti - nope haven't tried anything yet. i suspected this, but now we know it for sure. somewhat a good feeling now? slept great last night for the first time in weeks. i do try to see a chiropractor as often as possible, in case signals from my spine are blocked to my organs. haven't ever done acupuncture yet, but not many places in my area and no one i know that can give a recommendation for one. have you ever had your progesterone tested? i hope yours is better than mine!

afm, yesterday was a spotting/light flow and today is definitely full force. trying to decide if today or yesterday should be CD1. I did get through to my fertility center. Next week DH has to bring in a sample for a SA and then the next day i will have a sono HSG. they did recommend 600mg ibuprofen prior. It will be done on CD 10/11. Apparently this Dr. likes to do them CD 5-10, but she's making an opening for me. I'm hoping they'll let me try a progesterone supplement this cycle. otherwise i'm assuming i'll be on clomid next cycle. really hoping nothing major is wrong in there... just flushing the pipes and a supplement and all will be good ;) anyhoo i'm thinking i'm gonna stay off the site more this cycle to help with my stress level since we'll probably ntnp this cycle. so please keep FX'd for us and i'll maybe check in once in a while. GL to us for BFP's!!

Hi ladies, it looks like I am still in September. I could not believe it myself but I am now 1DPO on CD16, seed cycling seems to do the job. I am very happy except if AF does show it will kind of ruin my Vacation in less than 2 weeks :(
Happy new year everyone and tons of baby dust!!!!

joiefae: Welcome and baby dust!

Firsttime: I hope you do try acupuncture, it does wonders pretty fast, yeah here the medical help is limited too, but we found an acupuncturist and it is so worth it!
As for progesterone, I am getting my colposcopy results tomorrow and plan to ask for progesterone testing for this cycle, I so hope that mine will be ok, especially now with the acupuncture, seeds, and working out.
I have my fingers crossed for you this cycle! I hope to see you here. Baby dust!!!

Hi everyone :) I've never posted on any forum before and this will be our first month trying to conceive! Ahhh, I'm nervous. My husband and I are both 30, we've been married 2 years and just finished building a new house. Seems like the right time to try. I've been off the pill since September and with the exception of the first month off, I've had 28 day cycles. I've been temping and tracking cm (which seems to only last 3 days, not sure if that's normal?) So we will see how this goes! Today is cycle day 1. I want to get the show on the road but I suppose I better get used to being patient :) Praying for the off chance of things working right away and getting an October baby....

jj1009: Welcome and baby dust. You should take a breath, although 28 days is not a lot, they seem to drag during the TWW. Lets hope you are just one of the lucky ones who gets it right on the first try :)
As for CM 3 days can be just fine, you get EWCM? That is the one you should care about.

AFM: CD17, I thought I should be 1/2DPO today, but my temp this morning was 97.54 which is really low so I think maybe ovulation didn't happen yet??? My OPK a couple of days ago was dark, the test line was darker than the control line, I have no idea what is happening, I guess we'll see my temps tomorrow. Maybe I am still waiting for ovulation? Maybe I am in the October board after all?
I get my colposcopy results later today, getting a little nervous.
Baby dust to all!

jj - I don't believe it really matters the length of time you have fertile CM, but more importantly that you have it. Although lots of women don't have adequate CM so they just use alternatives. I only get fertile CM for a day or two.

I am new to this too! this is the second month we are trying! AF reared her ugly head yesterday :( So CD2 for me. My EDD would be October 8 if we conceive this month. Good luck to everyone, excited to see what happens for all of us!

Welcome to our new members. Sending you babydust and hope your journey to baby is short short short!

So what kind of New Year's resolutions does everyone have?

My husband and I have Trying to Conceive for 4 months. I'm 11 days late CD 44. Feeling tired all the time, sleepy, light cramping. I have very light brown discharged CD 42 - 44... I'm not trying to get my hopes up due to I don't have any symptoms like sore boobs etc. ...
