Can we do an intro thread?

Now that I'm really TTC there's lots of people on here that I chat with on a regular basis, but I don't know anything about them!

That said, I'm not going to tell you much about me I'm in hiding only because I have secret lurkers!

I can say I'm 31, regular-ish LIF poster. TTC one cycle, charting for three. Been married for a while, but we're just feelling like it's the right time now.

to everyone!

Re: Can we do an intro thread?

I'm 28 DH is 28 as well. This is our third cycle TTCing, will know on Monday sometime if it was succesful or not
Don't chart, use the monitor and OPK's and preseed...
ETA: We've been married for 2.5 years

Re: Can we do an intro thread?

I am 33, DH is 32. We have been married for 5.5 years. We have a 4 year old DS. We have been ttc since June 2007. AF has been a bit off since I had DS so ttc isn't as easy as the first time!

Re: Can we do an intro thread?

Hi! DH and I are 28, our 1st anniversary is in March, and this is our second try at a healthy baby. This is the first cycle after giving birth, we are hoping for a little miracle. We just chart and BD to get the job done

Re: Can we do an intro thread?

Hi! DH & I are both 28 (DH will be 29 in 2 short weeks). We will be married 2 years in March. Came off BCP in April & starting "not being careful" in May. This will be our 7th month trying & have already consulted with OBGYN to see what is up. My cycles have been irregular & really have not regulated since being off BCP. I have become intune with using OPK's & this month we are trying the Robitussen route. Hoping for an 08 miracle!

Re: Can we do an intro thread?

I'm Melissa. I'm 33 DH is 30. We have been TTC for 2.5 yrs and had 3 miscarriages and 1 ectopic. I have been diagnosed with immune and blood clotting issues. We are moving to IVF if this cycle(IUI) doesn't work. I am excited!

Re: Can we do an intro thread?

I'm also semi in hiding. I'll reveal via FM if you're curious.

DH and I are both in our twenties and got married last year.

We did "whatever happens" method in September, then actively starting trying through using OPKs in October. This is our 5th month, 4th cycle TTC.

I have long cycles, averaging 32 days, but have been as long as 40 days.

This month, I didn't get a +OPK until CD 23 & 24, and we BD'd too much upon seeing EWCM on CD 19 so I think we are out this month since we did not BD after either day of +OPK.

Next month I plan on starting to use the CBEFM.

Re: Can we do an intro thread?

I'm Lauren. I used to be known on these boards as "Hopin4baby." I am 30, DH is 29. We have been TTC for 16 months. Came off BCP Sept. '06 and took a whatever happens, happens approach. By Feb. '07 I knew something was wrong. After going back and forth and having to switch ob/gyn's I was finally diagnosed with PCOS in June of '07.
Currently I have done three cycles of met/clomid, unsucessfully. I am about to start my fourth cycle on this combo and it will be our first IUI.

Re: Can we do an intro thread?

I am Traci, 32. DH is 30. We have three children already, but really would like one more. Trying since August, no luck. We did not try for two months duyring this time though, moving and holidays. We are hoping 2008 is our year, but what ever happens, happens. Anyhow I work PT, school FT, and DH works at an acoounting/tax software company. GLAD TO BE HERE!!!!

Re: Can we do an intro thread?

Both me and DH are 29. We've been married a little over 2 years. I went off BCP in Sept. This is our 3rd cycle trying with the OPK's. I got my positive OPK this past Wed. Tonight will be our 3rd and final night of BD'ing in a row. Whew! Hopefully the next time we BD it will be just for fun

Good luck to all!

Re: Can we do an intro thread?

DH is 26, and I am 25. We are TTC our third and I *think* our last child. I just had #2 in June, and this is my first PP cycle, so things aren't regular yet. When AF comes again, we will be using the CBEFM.

Re: Can we do an intro thread?

My name is Violet (yes that is my real name. People never believe me for some reason) I am 26 Dh is 25. We have been trying for over a year. I always sort of knew I was going to have problems getting pg, something in my gut and it runs in my family.

I love natural and homeopathic medicin.

Re: Can we do an intro thread?

I'm Beth.

I'm 32, DH is 37.

Married for 3+ years.

First time around we got pregnant on our first try, 3 months after going off of birth control, in December, 2004.

I miscarried at about 7 weeks.

One week later I conceived my daughter, who is now 2.4 years old.

I went off birth control again in January, 2007. Started really trying in June. Started seeing an RE in October, and was diagnosed last month with "hostile cervical mucous"

I tried using pre-seed, evening primrose oil and mucinex this month. If nothing happens, we're trying our first natural IUI next month.

Re: Can we do an intro thread?

Hi! I am 26. I am also in hiding. My DH and I were planning on starting in August but since life doesn't always work out how you plan, we decide we rather start earlier. We plan on TTC in April or May. We will be married for 1 year this Sept. GL to all!!!

Re: Can we do an intro thread?

My name is Leslie. I am 26 and DH is 36. We've been married for almost 2 years. I went off of BCP in March of 07, but really started trying in August. My cycles are an average of 50 days, so it feels like we have been trying forever. We have been temping for the last 3 cycles. Last cycle was actually 33 days, but it looks like my cycles are going back to being long again.

Good luck to everyone.

Re: Can we do an intro thread?

Re: Can we do an intro thread?

I'm 32, DH is 36. I am newly off of BCP and not sure what to expect yet. I also have a VERY nervous DH, so this should be interesting..>>

Re: Can we do an intro thread?

I'm hiding for now because I have some lurkers. I'm 28, DH is 30 and we have been married for a little over a year.

I've been off BCP since June to regulate my cycle and we started "throwing caution to the wind" last month and unfortunately got our first BFN. I'm a little perplexed at my cycle now and hoping you ladies can help.

I enjoy getting to know everyone here and hope our stays are short!
