AF reared her ugly head today, after the tease of being late and all the good positive symptoms to go with it. Ugh. Even with almost two years of practice the disappointment of a failed cycle never hurts any less.

Going to stay with the baby aspirin to see if that helps any. Do I REALLY need a body basal thermometer for temping? Thinking of starting that, I have a regular digital, but not BBT. I live in a very developing country in Africa so regular old digital is the best I can do.

Started Period 11/3 ended on 11/5 now taking Clomid again this month but trying at 200mg from 5th to 9th days. now cd9 (one more clomid tonight) then just waiting to ovulate!!

Last month i did but somehow im not pregnant so we ll see this month. Were hoping for our rainbow baby since we've lost our baby one yr ago at 5 month pregnancy.

This month im drinking Goddess Blend tea which has maca root and other fertility stuff in it as well during my period along with vitex, rasp leaf, and a bunch of other vitamins when period ended, ive stopped taking them so now just my B complex, vit. c, evening rose, baby apsirin (this seems to help with clomid side effect - Headaches & Hot flashes along with Vit. C) and prenatal vitamin. Along with using preseed. I notice taking clomid it does dry up your Cm so i think taking evening rose helps... Im planning on taking mucinex tmw (cd 10) (600mg but cutting it in half).. says to help clear up mucus but as well makes you more wet (tmi but im willing to try)
then cd 11 plan on starting to take Ovulation kit to test. Read somewhere states dont use first urine. take test between 10am til ? so i figured ill try taking it at 10am instead to see if any difference.

I hope this helps.

Hi ladies! I have never joined a group before...but I am driving Myself and DH nuts. We are ttc #1, without success. It has been 8. Cycles so far and Dr won't do anything until 12 pass w no success.

Right now I am ~2DPO. I used OPK and Preseed. Been taking vitamins since June 2015...I started temping for the first time this month - so far it only a few data points.

I am not sure if I'm doing everything "right" our just driving myself nuts worrying about it.

I feel isolated, unfortunately. Single friends don't care and most of my partnered friends either have kids already, or are childless by choice. It would be nice to freak out with those who care and are in the same boat :)

Baby dust to all!! I'll probably start testing ~7DPO...torture, I know! I really want this to be our month!!

a_is_for - I've always used a regular ole digital thermometer and it works just fine! Are you using Fertility Friend or any other charting app?

Weretryinagain - So sorry about your loss last year. I hope you get to meet your rainbow baby very soon!

Botor - Those are all the same reasons i ended up here too! I'm sure you'll find the same amazing support and encouragement here I did!

Shadia - We are going for #2. Honestly, though as you said health is priority, we are hoping for a girl. Mostly just because it would be more cost efficient since we already have a girl!

Kmk - Have you been doing anything in particular to extend your LP? That's great that it got longer! I'm still so wacky post pregnancy. It's gone anywhere from 6-13 days. It used to be a very reliable 14 days, now I never know. I hope the extended time works in your favor this go 'round!

AFM - cd10, I'll start my opk tests Sunday. Our donor is going out of town for the holiday, I really hope we're able to squeeze in a donation before he leaves. The last few months I have ov'd on cd18 so we may be able to just barely make it! Fingers crossed for everyone this month!!!

Ok, so I'm on CD11 and ever since yesterday I've been feeling little flutters in my lower abdomen. I'm not sure if my mind is playing games with me or if it's maybe just gas. It's way too soon for me to test so I'm wondering if anyone else has felt this way as well? Sending baby dust to all

Last month we ntnp (BD only one before O) and so AF came today, Nov 13th. Decided to seriously try for an AUGUST baby!!!

Baby dust, ladies!

Hey Ladies,

So I started a new cycle on Nov 4th. Right now I'm currently on CD 10 and not really excited about going home and testing my OPKs at all. I'm just so tired and emotionally drained of seeing those negatives. I think I'm starting to give up and lose hope.

How are you ladies doing?

Hey everyone! I'm on cycle day 11 and I have started to get EWCM. Does this come before you ovulate or during ovulation? I'm just so ready to get the show on the road! I would love to surprise everyone at Christmas with a BFP! Good luck to all you ladies!

Good day all,

AF Showed on 11/4.... This month i was told by my best girlfriend to try Geritol Tonic, that's how she got pregnant after trying for so many years mind you she was in her early 20s with no known fertility issues. She suggested I try it being that I've been trying since January of this year with no success so I felt like WTH it can't hurt from what I see its a vitamin so I've been taking it twice a day since CD1 and I will say my EWCM was plenty full this cycle, that was the only noticeable change I felt in my body other than having a boost of energy being that Geritol is high in iron. . This is baby #2 for us... I have a 5 year old daughter.... Anywho... I'm on CD 11 n got my +OPK last night..:. Me n DH have been BD'n consistently before ovulation... Last night n I'll continue tonight to make sure we catch a egg!!! This cycle I'm so positive so I'm really feeling hopeful I'll finally get my Good luck to you all!!!! Sending lots of your way!!!

Feel good about this cycle lots of ewcm todsy cd 13 and a flashy ? been Out if town and hubby gave me a warm welcome
