Hi all!!
I am new to this, ttc for baby #1 and cycle #1. I ovulated on CD 12 I believe, BD'd like crazy this month and only have missed two days since AF. So we shall see. Currently 4dpo or around there. I am driving myself mental with all of these "symptoms" I feel like I'm having... lol

Welcome, missmandea! :)

Wow!! This board has been busy the past few days! I skimmed the posts really quick. I'm going to try and get caught up tonight.

JJ - I am so sorry!! I know you are crushed after the roller coaster of emotions.

Bumpin - Yay!! Keeping my fingers crossed you get a good clear positive in the morning!

Basia - It's still early so don't lose hope yet. FX for you!!

Michelley, Rerun, Missmandea, GB, Bjwengerd - Welcome!!

lseekins - Welcome and Congrats!!

Lolo - FX everything works out this month for you!!

I'll try to read and get caught up so I can respond to everybody soon!! I'm sorry to those I left out.

AFM - Still waiting for AF to leave so I can plan some romantic dates with my hubby.

Missmandea - I am also 1st baby TTC & 1st cycle! Good luck to you & keep in contact!

AnotherBaby - thank you for the welcome! How long have you & your husband been TTC?

I am wondering if any of you ladies have any experience with clomid? This is my first cycle taking it. I went for my day 21 progesterone blood draw on Monday & haven't heard back yet. I'm pretty sure I ovulated but I was just curious if anyone else has any experience taking it. Thank you!

Hope everyone has a nice evening & good luck to anyone testing!

I am feeling very good about this cycle! DPO 12. Waiting on blood work for HCG and Progestrone levels (had previous miscarriage due to low progestrone). Lots of symptoms that line up with my previous pregnancy with my son! AF is due this weekend, hoping for a positive HPT this weekend if my blood work doesn't come back soon enough!!

Hi everyone

New to the forums. 2nd month TTC. I'm 32, hubby is 37. Waited a long time to be able to afford a house by ourselves. Next step is a child. I wanted a June baby but July works too! Missed out last month. Today I'm roughly 7dpo. AF due the 27th. This month feels much different than the last. Lots of nipple pain and side boob pain (near rib by armpit) and I constantly feel like I have to pee. Today I looked at a glass of ice water like I spent a week in Death Valley. Ovulation like cramps on right side that hasn't moved in hours, so definitely not gas. Also always have saliva under tongue. Usually a first sign for me for vomiting but nothing has happened yet.

If this is my month I'd be due around 7/7 to 7/10

Winters in the NW suck. I want my kid to have an outdoor party like I was never able to do. Rainy wintry days are no fun!

Hoping for lots of luck for everyone!

I'm 6dpo and of course couldn't help but test even though I knew what the outcome would be. BFN. lol. I spend a lot of money during the tww with all the hpt's I buy! Hopefully I'll get my BFP soon!

Welcome Linasa: I'm also around 8dpo and you just described all the symptoms I'm experiencing! We both sound pregnant to me :) I'd only add my disturbing amount of CM (more than I can ever remember having before) and general all-over aches, especially in my joints ans shoulders. I've never experienced non-exercise related boob pain before, it is also unusual for you? Mine is also more intense in the side-boob area, especially after 5pm- does the time of the day make any difference?

Are you waiting to test? I'll be interested to see when your results start to show!!

Aceron33: I tested the last two days too, even though I know the odds! I let myself splurge on the tests as a form of retail therapy in the TWW, haha!

I'm dry as a bone. I do get uncomfortable bbs but not anything like this. I had a very sharp shooting pain in my nipple a couple hours ago and last night. I get the side pain towards the afternoon and the saliva thing earlier normally.

I bought some 6 day early tests. Going to take one with FMU. I'll definitely let you know.

Welcome to the newbies!

@bumpin - come on lines, get darker!!!

hey guys, just checking in. (-: We've started the "sextravaganza" as my DH called it - so silly. I am supposed to ovulate around Saturday or so. Didn't get to use the fertility monitor this cycle - will start next cycle.

Today my cousin told me she is expecting. And last weekend one of my good friends told me. Because of our loss and journey it is hard for me to have a good attitude - my happiness for them is so tainted. Anyone else feel that way? I know I'm not alone in that. I wish it was different.

Anyway, this is month 4. We are supposed to go back to our RE after 6 months is we don't have anything but i'm debating. I am not really excited about fertility drugs, and previously we haven't had a problem conceiving, but I don't want to wait a long time either for our next pregnancy. And who knows, maybe it will happen in the next three months. Any opinions?

Anyone testing soon?
