To anyone trying to concieve for a while, just a quick question? I am 29 my hubby is 25....
I am a little overweight, but very active. I feel as though I am a fairly healthy person... my hubby again is about 5 7 and weighs about 205... He too is overall healthy... we have been trying since August 2013 with not even a hint of a bfp... I am pretty regular and have confirmed O with temps! Should I be worried about his goodies or just give it more time? When and if the time comes, I don't even know how to go about telling him he needs to get checked!
I worry so much about this stuff! I just want a baby so bad! I waited til I was 28 to find the right guy and marry him, and was a virgin until then! I never thought I would have to wait for the only other thing I have wanted my whole life! I really appreciate this site! My hubby sees me on my phone and just assumes I'm on my baby makin site! Lol and most the time he is right! I live on here! Good luck to everyone for getting their Dec babies!

Thanks ladies for all the kind words and encouragement! I'll most definitely keep you updated!

barely_there: I'm a little behind you.. CP @ 4 wks 6 days on friday 3/21 so today is CD 6. Will start to check for ovulation soon.. baby dust to you!

millbarnett: have you tried opks? I bought a pack on amazon and got a bfp the first cycle we used them.. unfortunately it ended in a CP last friday but we will try again. We are both 28 took a year to travel after we got married in sept 2012 and had a NTNP (not trying not preventing) attitude since october 2013.. didn't happen on its own so started opks in feb. most important to be honest and open when TTC so if u feel either of you needs to be checked support each other! After our CP my hubby (who hates the doctor!) went with me to get my bloodwork done and even initiated asking his doc to order bloodwork on him too to check his blood type and overall health.

and to all!

Well, I thought I'd O'd on Sunday based on CM/tender boobs the last couple days/soreness around left ovary during BD, but my body may have been trying to trick me. Yesterday, my CM was insane and I've been having twinges around my right ovary over the last hour, so maybe O got delayed or maybe O'ing on both sides this month? Our bases are covered on BD'ing, so I guess only time will tell...

Congrats to the BFPs and baby dust for those waiting to test!

Gb1020- I've had irregular periods forever. Lost about 60 pounds in 2007 and my periods came back like clockwork but never got pregnant. I gained the weight back :( and periods disappeared. I was never too worried about it until I started wanting a baby a while back. I was diagnosed in 2010 officially even though I knew what it was pretty much. Doctor out me on metformin and it never did anything for me. I charted for a few months and he determined I wasn't ovulating so he put me on clomid cd 3-7 estradiol cd 8-13 and progesterone 3 days after ovulation until the next period started. My doctor would only give me 3 months worth at a time so I finished those up and decided I was done getting my heart broken and never went back to the do for. I decided to study pcos on my own and figure out what I needed to do naturally. I have read many many books on pcos and have it figured out. I found that the pcos comes from my dad's side. He has 4 girls. 2 of us have fertility issues. His brothers have 3 girls and each of them have 1 girl that has fertility issues. It is hereditary. I've done a lot of research about it and have tracked where it came from for me. I'm trying to stay positive. I think about having a baby all the time and pray probably 16 of the 18 hours I'm awake. I just don't know how long I'm going to walk around broken hearted. Also has anyone experienced a positive opk and not ovulate? If no bro this month I'm going to start temping in didn't want to honestly because I didn't want to obsess over it. Because I would think about it every single day. But now I'm obsessing over the fact I got a positive opk but may have not ovulated. So I figure might as well start temping. If I'm not ovulating I honestly don't know what else to do at this point. But I guess I'll cross that bridge if I come to it. Would be pretty awesome though. My edd is saying 12-13-14. Haha that would be cool!

HI EVERYONE!!!
Im 2dpo today...I woke up with chapped lips this morning. They have been tingling/burning all day. Never had this probblem before. Anyone heard of this being a early pregnancy symptom?

Holy hot flashes anyone else having them I'm about to go crazy. And to top it off I'm neaseous

Gb1020- sorry forgot to list my symptoms! I will go without a period until I have some kind of treatment. It was provera until I got into the natural stuff. I've been on fertilitea for a little over a month and starting taking fertilaid fertilecm and ovaboost on cd1. I was too excited when I actually had a period with the help of fertilitea! And over the moon when I got a positive opk on Saturday. Anyway I have weight around the middle and a few black hairs on my chin :(. Have the drs said anything about your hormone levels? The doctors have tested my hormones and they say they come back normal. Even my thyroid came back normal. I was very surprised when I heard that. It really confused me. I had an ultrasound and my ovaries look great except for the follicles around them. My dr said they aren't big enough to be cysts so he calls them follicles. Idk the difference but whatever. If I think of anything else I'll let you know! I'm sorry to hear about your husband. I know how you feel. My husband hasn't had a sa yet because I always figured it was me but I decided that since I was going to be taking the fertilaid might as well cover all angles. If something doesn't happen in the next couple months he's going in for a sa too. I'm very scared as well. The only way any of the women in my family that had fertility issues had babies was through ivf. That really scares me because that's a whole lot of money! Anyway good luck to you and I look forward to having people that understand me!

Hi ladies, can I join in??

Hi all. I am new to this posting thing normally very private.
I have two lovely girls 3 and 2. Our first was through IVF as we had tried for two years to conceive and no luck just lots of stress. I have a dermoid cyst in each ovary but they are small and everything flows as should . DH has low mobility sperm count. But we managed to conceive number two surprise baby whilst I was BF number 1. We would love a little boy but not fussed
The reason being if we conceive this month bub would be due on my DH fathers bday. He died last year. So as u see a boy would be awesome but we have a girl name ready to go. We are on 7dpo we bd seven times through my fertile zone. Now I'm experiencing creamy discharge, headaches and the odd tingling in my nibbles. I also had a strange tingly type feeling in my cervix that I felt when I was preg with my girls.
Last month we had a suspected miscarriage and doc said it was likely based on my preg symptoms including implantation pain and blood
But I then got a nasty bleed couldn't stand without a gush of blood that filled a pad. Doc said it could be my hormones adjusting to no pill and started the baby making process and then mu body said nope not this one and hence the bleed.
Long story short no real issues as to why but any advice on conceivibg our baby with our symptoms would be great.
Sorry for the loss to all that have lost
And big congrats to BFP@
to you all

Crum & crazydoglady - welcome! Good luck in your journey and keep us posted!

Cd9 for me, still another week or so before ov. Waiting, waiting, waiting.....
