Basia-- I saw your chart this morning-- looking good! CBFM still said high today. I'm thinking/hoping I'll get the peak reading tomorrow! Of course, tonight my mom's going to be staying at my house, so we'll have to figure out some creative, non-awkward ways of getting the BDing in! :)

Ha ha Marcie that sounds fun. I like sneaking in the quiet BD though. Lol.
I am so not busy at work today. I wish I had something to keep my mind of all this. I think all of us have a really good shot this month. I feel very optimistic and excited for some reason. I'm not a symptom checker but I'm hoping to get some symptoms next week. Today I just feel really bloaty, but I think that's normal after O.

I'm new to the group so I guess I better introduce myself and tell you our story. Thanks again basia30 for the invite. :)
DH and I have been married for going on 14 years. We have a son who is 12. He was conceived naturally and unexpectedly. He was the best surprise ever! We found out the day before DHs birthday that a baby was on the way. He weighed 4lbs 6oz at full term. Come to find out I had Graves' disease and had my thyroid removed shortly after.
We have tried off and on for years to have another child but haven't even had a pregnancy "scare". We have been aggressively trying for 1 1/2 - 2 yrs now. I have had day three blood work, an HSG, multiple ultrasounds and more blood work. My AMH levels were checked too. DH has had an SA and a visit to the urologist to check his prostrate. All my tests have come back normal. DHs SA was a little abnormal but three different doctors feel that everything should be good to go. But it just isn't happening! In June we had an iui done and we both had so much hope that it would work. We just knew that was the answer. It wasn't! I felt like such a failure , not to mention the money I felt we had wasted.
So, in July we had another iui scheduled but we were on vacation. We discussed it and decided to cancel that iui and just enjoy vacation and have fun. It was a wonderful week and I don't regret taking that time off. We were going to schedule our second iui for August but life happened and funds are short so we didn't. Plus I was still in disbelief that the first one didn't work and I don't know... we just decided to try again naturally for a few months.
I have been taking Evening Primrose and I plan on taking Robitussin closer to O. DH and I both have a slew of vitamins and minerals to take that we were told to get by our RE. We are going to continue taking them and I bought some Instead Soft Cups and we have Preeseed too. Af just finished up today so, LET'S GET THIS PARTY STARTED!!
PS. I'm sorry the post was so long but thanks for reading.
PSS. If we conceive this cycle, my due date will be May 17th. That's the day after my birthday Wouldn't that be the best birthday present ever!! :)

_snowwhite_: Glad you are feeling better now and that the sore throat didn't stick around...cause this is awful.
Swanky929: Welcome! And good luck to you.
Basia30 & RPope84: Your temps are looking good.
marcie_pants: Good luck with the BD'ing...I know I couldn't do it with people in the house.
lettoh: So sorry AF showed up. The OPK's will help. Good luck this month!
Jessph: Welcome to the group! I know the struggle all to well. And the disappointment when AF arrives. We are also considering an IUI in a month or 2. Having the same worries as you are having. But we won't know until we try. Hoping we are lucky before it happens. GL!
AFM: Well, my weekend started early. I am home with a head cold. Or at least the start of one. :( AF seems to have stopped but I am sure she will start up again...I have never had AF only last 1 1/2 days...or at least I don't remember it. This stupid cold is also making me nauseous...I wish I could just throw up all this mucus.
Really hoping I feel better by the end of the weekend.
Hope you ladies have a great weekend.
