Hey ladies,

sorry I haven't responded till now, I have been away this weekend, and just got your responses. I am so excited that we can all chat. Yes, i started charting this month, and I think I o'd on Friday. I chart at fertility friend.com, but not sure how to post in a message to share.

Hey Lynn, hope you had a great weekend. To post your chart is real easy. Just go to your chart on FF, on the left hand side there will be a tab that says home page, click that. Once you get there down at the bottom of the page you can choose which charts you want displayed and then at the top of the page it tells you what the link is so you can post it. Just copy and paste to post. Why don't you go ahead and try so I can see your chart.

Susan,

I will post my chart for sure first thing in the morning. I have just been updating my chart every morning when I first get to work, and my work computer automatically saves the PW, and of course with my absent mind these days i don't remember my PW...LOL I think I've lost my mind! =)

But I do think I O'd on Friday, I've been checking CM and CP and all signs point to yes.

Very good. I'm not sure I remember, how long have you been trying? My dh and I just started trying last month for #2. We were successful in conceiving, however, we m/c at about 6 weeks. So, this month, the day I got the okay from my doc I was feeling EWCM so I went home at lunch at took an OPK and it was +. Sad thing is my dh was really sick that day so we couldn't bd (believe me I tried-lol). The next day, my CM was dry (well, pretty dry) but my OPK was still positive. So, as soon as my dh got home from work, we had dinner, we gave our son a bath then put him to bed, we finally bd'd. According to my chart, it looks like I o'd that day, but I'm not sure we made it in time and if we did, I'm not sure my environment was as friendly as it could have been since my CM was dryer. Anyway, that's kinda my story so far. I'm still hopeful this month, but have some doubt considering all the circumstances. What's your story?

I had a m/c as well, mine was in August...I actually at that time wasn't expecting to be pregnant, and after being 10+ days late and was extremely thrilled....and now I'm trying so I would say this is the first month of actively trying though.

I hope that this month works out for you...I know that it's frustrating when the "time" is right and then not being able too...but I think the important thing to remember is not to loose the love we have for our partners by becoming baby obsessed...It's hard though, cuz somehow it becomes all I think about.

I am TTC #1, DH has a dd from a previous relationship though, who will be 6 next month and I love her to death and can't wait to have a biological child of my own!!!

I really do hope that this was your month...but if not, there is always next month!

We are very similar then. The beginning of my m/c was on 8/29 (it was the first month we started trying). I'm using that as cd1 for this month. I really still had a small amount to HcG in my blood on cd11 and really wasn't expecting to o so soon. When I talked to the nurse to get my test results last Monday, I asked her when we could start trying again and she said any time. From that point on, it seemed like everything was rushed cause I could feel that I was going to ovulate soon because of the EWCM. So, like I said, I'm hopeful because we actually got to bd the day I ovulated, but I keep telling myself it may not happen because the day before would have been better. It's best that I don't get my hopes up too much right now and try to stay realistic.

When are you due to start AF?

Yes, our situations have many similarities, that for sure! I am sorry to hear about your m/c though.

I am due for AF around the 27th, however my LP is 14 days, so if i o'd on friday I would actually expect it on the 25th, which is a little early for me. Only 26 days. DH and I have been BDing everyother day, a couple days in a row as well, but we haven't really been getting along well the last couple days so it's been a little stressful..cuz I knew i was oing and wanted to get another BD shot in.....well it wasn't the funnest time we've had, but hopefully the end result will be a joyous one...LOL

I'm just glad to have this board, I think it's what keeps me sane some days..LOL.

I LOVE THIS BOARD, even though I do at times get a little obsessed. :)

I'm due for AF on the 24th or 25th. I usually run a 27-28 day cycle. I thought it might be a little screwed up because of the m/c but so far everything seems normal. We'll have to stay in close contact. It looks like we might be testing around the same time if all goes well. I'm sorry to hear about your m/c too. It's hard, but I try to look towards the future and accept that it happened for a reason.

Don't forget to post your chart tomorrow.
