hi ladies. i'm new to the ttc circle of friends. i've been ttc for 26 months now and i'm becoming desparate. apparently nothing is wrong with us-it just doesn't happen. i've been pregnant once, almost 4 years ago, then was 1 year on the pill and and been trying since. physically everything ok with me and my boyfriend and this month i'm trying bio-energy. anyone tried that? btw i'm 33 and feel like i'm running out of time. good luck to you all

CENDY - Thanks, I like them. No c section for me, was all so quick, took about 6 hours from beginning of pains to the end, had her breach as well. Mad or wot, labour is hard work even at 3lb. She looked perfect, just small. She fit in the crook of my dh arm. Totally cute. Anyway, hey ho. I'm testing for ov just in case it works this month, and today got a faint positive with clearblue so something's going on. Gonna test again tomorrow to see if I get it better, my af was slow this month and only came good towards the end of the week, so maybe I will and it will be late, or maybe it will be next month and it will come back fully. Is it even worth trying with a low lh reading? We'll see how it goes. KRISTINA - Welcome, I'm sorry its taking so long for you, but as you will see from my story, took 24 months for us the first time. Have you been to your doctor? Have they tested you and dh for probs? Might just need some help with ov and could work with some drugs? Sorry if you've already done all this, just curious. Anyway good luck and you'll get support on this site, the ladies (in my experience) are all really nice. Check in soon. xx

hopeful-i tried with OPK and tried on the right days...nothing. i don't know. we started TTC one month after my father passed away and i was in a state of shock-maybe that has something to do with the problem. i will go back to my doctor this month. in november he did the US and everything in there was fine. he also confirmed that i ovulate on a monthly basis. he used the US and i confirmed it with the OPK. AF showed today and this is why i am so upset. again. thanks girls

Hi! Oh, Ericka, I have been so worried about you. I am so glad you had a good experience with your HSG. It is well worth the discomfort and embarassment of the procedure. Its great your doctor was able to do the procedure. It is nice to know the person more than just meeting them for a few minutes and then exposing your wears to the person. I know you will be preggers in the next three months. I just know it! Good luck with your next appointment! I know you will have much success! Welcome KRISTINA! 33 is not old. You have plenty of time. I am sorry you have had such a long TTC journey. I see that you were pregnant once. I am assuming, and correct me if I am wrong you had a MC? How far along were you? Did the doc give you a reason? I have no idea what bioenergy is. Please fill us in on it. I think we all have tried just about anything to conceive, so another thing won't hurt us. Have you and you BF been tested? Are you on Clomid or other fertility drugs? What testing have you and you BF undergone? We are all here to help and support each other, so I am sure we all have a thing or two to share with you in hopes of helping you conceive. I look forward to getting to know you. HOPEFUL, yes, I understand no matter how big or small the baby is, the labor of getting them into this world is hard. You LH sounds like it is getting ready to surge. I test two to three times a day to catch my surge. I would think yours is likely to happen in the next day or so. I would keep checking it. CC, please try to stay positive. I know you will be late this month. I just feel it. I think this thread is going to have many BFP this month! I am going to go now. BABY DUST TO YOU ALL!

Cendy-my cycles are pretty regular. the pregnancy was terminated (if i only knew it would be such a problem to concieve again), i didn't m/c which is a good sign said the doctor. my BF has not been tested and i intend to talk to him about it. he's a doctor so i suppose that this joutny through tests and visits to doctors will be kind of frustrating for him. at this period most of my friends became pregnant which makes me feel even worse about myself. i keep hoping each month.

CENDY: PCT= post-coital test. We do it and them dr. checks me out. Sounds kind of gross...but let's face, at this point I've done far grosser to ttc!!! KRISTINA: Welcome to our thread!! ERICKA: I'm glad the HSG came out good. That's a great sign. BD tons the next three months- maybe you'll get lucky! I've been so busy the last fews days--- I can't even see straight. It's nice to sit and read/talk with you guys. I hope all is well with everyone. I'm on cd 7 b-o-r-i-n-g. I don't like this tww at all. Come on egg! Drop! Even better....Fertilize!! ~~DUST~~

Hey all! I saw our thread slipping down to the bottom so I thought I would bump it up. Kristina, I am glad that you are going to talk with your BF about getting tested. Since he is a doctor, I think he should not mind as much. My DH was not looking forward to being tested and I am glad he did not have to. Hopefully, the testing will be beneficial. Good luck to you. Dea thanks for clairifying what PCT is. I would do whatever it takes to get a baby. The TWW is the worst! Keep positive thinking. Well, I have to go now. BABY DUST!

Bump!

Finally registered, so now I'm HopefulK. Thanks ERICKA, I read you sisters story. Totally touched my heart. Nothing like the pain of losing and burying your child, but you've got to look to the future cos if you don't all you want to do is go and be with them and that does not help. I'm a lot better now, as I'm sure you know there are good days and bad days. Just want to be able to ttc again and have something positive in our lives. CENDY - Thanks for that, didn't get full af until 14 days ago tomorrow so hopefully it means that I will ov tomorrow or Fri. If not I'm gonna ring my dr just to make sure its right and things are going back on track as they should. Welcome all those new people who have found this thread, congrats to all those pg ladies who are doing well and good luck to all those trying or waiting to test. Thanks to all for your kind thoughts, truely helps me not drive everyone in my life mad to chat here. xx

Hello. Hopeful, I hope you are oing this week and that it doesn't take you long to get pregnant again. Did the Dr. tell you it was ok to try again this soon after going through labor? Cendy thanks for the positive thoughts. I do hope the hsg brings me good luck during these next three months. I'm still spotting which I think is strange. The spotting is mixed in with what looks like ewcm. I know it's way too soon for me to o. I should still be about 10 days away from that. But I did an opk just to be on the safe side, negative of course. Did any of you experience this? Have a great night ladies and talk to you soon.

Morning all! I am doing great! I hope you all are too. Ericka, I noticed after my HSG the EWCM as well. I think it triggers some of the glands that make the EWCM during the HSG procedure. The following months along with using the EPO, the EWCM was back after so many years of it being scarce. I think it is a good sign. Hopeful, it sounds like you are on the verge of Oing. Keep us posted and get to BDing. Well, I have to go for now. I will check back later today. BABY DUST!

Hey Everyone- just stopping in to say hi. Nothing new--- just waiting around to hear good news from you folks!! Hope all is well. ~~DUST~~

Hey ladies, how's it going? Hope you're still hanging in there : ) Cendy, any morning sickness yet? I remember mine kicked in like 6 weeks. How are you doing? Everything's all well with me. I think I'm starting to feel the baby move. Anywho, guess that's about it. Take care all.

Hi all! Lashunda, I never have had morning sickness. Knock on wood. The only thing I have is adversions to foods at times. I hope I don't get morning sickness. Well, I gotta run. BABY DUST!

HI Cendy, Ericka, Lashunda and all..Cendy, glad you are still doing well. No morning sickness, you are lucky! Ericka, glad your hsg went well. What a relief huh ? I also had lots of EWCM for a few months afterwards, more then I normally have or have now. Should help you out some! Lashunda, glad to read your post and that you are still doing well with baby! You will be finding out what you are having soon right? I think that was on the other thread as to when you were able to find out and I dont remember. Glad to see everyone else is hanging in there in this awful ttc game. I have my 1st RE appointment today. Dont know what to expect, but am looking forward to it. AF due sometime next week, and I am sure she will find me. Have a great weekend ladies!

Sorry, I used the word "glad" about 10 million times in that post!
