Ty :) I guess I should introduce myself ;)
I was a member here in 2011 when I was ttc my first child . My son who I had in 2012. He is 2 in August .

We are now open minded to not try but not prevent eirher . I'm still trying in my mind though . Haha . And actually how we became open minded is this cycle we had been doing natural family planning and the pull out method well , three days ago the hubby did not have the self control that he usually does and basically at that point decided we are ok with trying for another since I knew I would be ovulating the next day. even though I had kind of wanted to wait one more year but now that the possibility is there ... Here I am . Baby fever crazy ! ;)

AF due July 17th . Feels like foreverrrr

Oh I'll also add that before my son my AF was super irregular and so it made conceiving hard . Now postpartum my cycles are very regular and I even get ewcm ! Which I never did before my son . So hopefully I'm more fertile than a few years ago?! One can hope ! Lol I conceived. My son BDing once that entire week ! Using soy isoflavones and progesterone cream got my bfp first cycle of using the soy and progesterone .

I know but they were so cheap was hard not to buy them, not sure how reliable they will be but if I ever get a bfp on them will let you all know lol, and I will be testing like mad with 50 of them it would be rude not to haha xx

Welcome everyone xxx

Knicole : tell us more about your symptoms before your BFP with your first baby, did you feel anything at all?

4thestar : you must test like crazyyy hahaha with 50 tests!!!! Must come back and tell us the results!!!!!

I've never tried the wando sticks but I haven't heard bad things either. I'm tempted to buy some cause it is cheaper then the regular HPT.

@Tigger9999 I agree, if I have HPT in the house I'm going to use it, even when I know it's too early lol

@knicole it's good to try to have your babies close together. I wish I would have done that. My daughter is 6 going on 7 and she complains that she is alone.

Hi ladies :). When is your AF due? And when are you guys planning to test?

Hi my AF is due on July 8th...I'm trying to hold out testing for a few days.... It's just so hard to wait !!! When is your AF due??? & what DPO are you planning on testing??

My AF is due on the 14th july.... Long time ... Not planning on testing unill missed period, if i can hold it that long lolzzzz. Its extremly hard

Hey ladies sorry if it takes me a while to reply . We are an army family stationed in Germany ! Which btw it's 11am here on 4th of July so happy 4th all!!!

I had mild symptoms with my first pregnancy starting at about 7 dpo. After implantation I think . I was crazy tired . Like the kind of tired where it feels like you took a Benadryl or something similar . I also had super bizarre dreams and on 10 dpo I had AF like cramping . I thought for sure I was getting AF early but a few days passed and she never came so 12 dpo I tested and got my faint bfp. Confirmed with blood test the next day at 13. Dpo. Then aftery missed period the barrage of symptoms flooded in . Lol

My AF this cycle not due till July 16th :/ only 2dpo today and I HATE that the progesterone surge you get after ovulation mimics pregnancy symptoms :/ I have the worst most sore boobs today :/ and zero appetite . Of course on the 4th of July when it's BBQ paradise with food galore ! Go figure !

I want to TRY to not test unless my AF doesn't come UNLESS I get obvious symptoms OR I feel that cramping and or spotting 7-10 dpo then I will test earlier. :)

I am 4 dpo today.... And I have no symptoms at all, I usually get sore boobs after ovulation, and still nothing. Do you think that means I might not have ovulated? This month I decided to let go and not test, or use opk or nothing..... So now I don't know if I ovulated or not, apart from some cramping that I had 4 days ago, and some spotting about 6 days ago....
