Hello ~
Quick introduction...my name is Katie, I'm 26, married for 3 months (together for 7 years). Dh and I just decided to start ttc. I went off the pill in August (my lmp was on 8/19). I am curious as to how many women out there got pg the first cycle off the pill? I know my sister in law and a few others who have, but from what I've read here, it seems like it takes a lot of women a few months to conceive. My doctor advised me to use a backup method for 2 months so my cycle can regulate but we aren't doing that. We haven't been checking for my fertile days or anything yet, just letting nature and God take His course...I guess I am already starting to get anxious. It's like, after you make this decision, you are already ready for it to happen and you want it to happen NOW! Any thoughts from those of you who've been in my shoes before? Thank you!

I'm now on my 4th cycle ttc, and beginning to obsess a bit! LOL! I started tracking BBT and CM. I also sprung for an OPK. My last cycle has been super weird. I haven't had a normal AF since the beginning of cycle 3 so I don't have much to go by in assuming I'm in cycle 4. BUT I managed to get a positive OPK, so I may have ovulated last friday. Unfortunately my BBT is not cooperating in the way I think it should. Sometimes I think it's easier to let nature take its course rather than do all the tracking, but that's easier said than done. I'm tired of waiting! LOL!
Good luck!

I am new to this board, and finding it very helpful!
HUGS and POSITIVE thoughts to everyone!!
This time around, I said I would again wait until I had a normal AF, but we didn't. So even though I'm not expecting anything, I have already had 5 BFN HPT's. It's hard to know if and when I ovulated (I did feel O-like pains about 11 days ago, so we "tried" around then).
At this point I'm sort of hoping she just shows up so I can start at a more "normal" cycle.
GL to you!
