Question of the Day - 08/30/09

So I figures so many of us are in the 2ww we need something to keep us occupied & to stop us from POAS.


How long have you been ttc?

Will this be your first DC? If not how many DC do you have, and age?

Who knows your ttc?

What are you doing to ttc? OPK's, BBT, checking CM or CP, Just BD, Other

Re: Question of the Day - 08/30/09

This is our first cycle ttc.

This will be our first

My bff knows we are ttc, and my cousin. Oh, and a few of DH's friends because he has a big

I have only always gone by CM to determine O. However that may be changing next cycle, if I don't get lucky & get my bfp first!

Re: Question of the Day - 08/30/09

Q1- This is our first month!

Re: Question of the Day - 08/30/09

this is our 2nd cycle ttc

it will be our 1st DC

no one knows we're ttc (i'm an active LIF poster in hiding....)

I am taking my BBT, and checking CM

Re: Question of the Day - 08/30/09

1. Unofficially 2 cycles...DH said heck with it, lets start trying half way through last cycle. Officially, this is the first cycle. (We were originally waiting until Oct to start)

2. This will be first

3. Our families think we are going to start trying soon. My job has been (impatiently) asking me every time I've been under the weather for the last year if I'm pregnant. I think they're pretty much expecting it by now.

4. OPK and lots and lots of BDing

Good luck all!!!!!

Re: Question of the Day - 08/30/09

1 - 2 months; starting month #3

2 - We have one son, he is 8 months

3 - One of my friends knows; that's it besides us :)

4 - OPK's, I am addicted to charting which includes checking CM

Re: Question of the Day - 08/30/09

This is our 1st month TTC

I have 1 DC who is almost 16 months

Only a friend from work knows we are TTC

I used an OPK this month and went by that and CM

Re: Question of the Day - 08/30/09

How long have you been ttc? We started in June, got pregnant that first month, miscarried, and we are TTC again this month

Will this be your first DC? If not how many DC do you have, and age? It would be our second, we have a baby boy who is 8 months today!

Who knows your ttc? Everyone that knew we miscarried, I'm sure they figure we are still trying..

What are you doing to ttc? OPK's, BBT, checking CM or CP, Just BD, Other ... I look at CM, and we're just having fun this month.. Whatever will be will be for us!

Re: Question of the Day - 08/30/09

How long have you been ttc?
Technically 4 months but it's only been 2 cycles, 1 of which was 80 days long and anovulatory so technically this is the first cycle we've actually had a shot.

Will this be your first DC? If not how many DC do you have, and age?
First

Who knows your ttc?
I caved and told one of my friends because she confided in me that she was PG even though she wasn't TTC. I wanted her to know that her baby might have a friend REALLY close in age

What are you doing to ttc? OPK's, BBT, checking CM or CP, Just BD, Other
All of the above except CP
Just started BBT this cycle and I really like it although it can be frustrating when you dont get the read that you want - it's awesome being able to tell what your body is doing/has done.

Re: Question of the Day - 08/30/09

This is our 7th cycle ttc

This will be our 1st

Only my best friend knows

We are using OPK's, BBT, checking CM, lots of BD, sometimes using PreSeed, laying with my legs up in the air, what else am i missing??!

Re: Question of the Day - 08/30/09

How long have you been ttc? This is currently our first cycle, although now I'm not sure I actually O'd (adjusting after BCP) so not sure if it counts.

Will this be your first DC? If not how many DC do you have, and age? First DC


Who knows your ttc? No one! We're keeping it a big secret for now.

What are you doing to ttc? OPK's, BBT, checking CM or CP, Just BD, Other

Right now, checking CM and obviously BDing, but next cycle I plan to use OPKs to see if I'm Oing.

Re: Question of the Day - 08/30/09

This is our 2nd month TTC

This will also be our first DC

Our families know we are TTC but dont know the extent of it.

Last month for TTC I used CM and that was it.. this month we are using OPK, BBT, and CM......hopefully we will get lucky!!!!

Re: Question of the Day - 08/30/09

How long have you been ttc?

Not really long. In June we stopped 'being careful', but this is the first cycle that we actually took it seriously (like finding my O date and using Preseed and such)

Will this be your first DC?

Yes. We've been married about a year and hope to start our little family soon

Who knows your ttc?

Nobody. Just me and DH

What are you doing to ttc?

Just OPKs (and the Oral Saliva Microscope) to find O date. Taking some Fertile CM to to help with that. We only BD when I'm actually Ovulating tho (haven't been doing it every other day like we probably should. lol)

Re: Question of the Day - 08/30/09

First month trying and hope it is easier than last time!

Will this be your first DC?
Nope. We have a 14 1/2 month old .

Who knows your ttc?
A few of my girlfriends...we all have kids w/i 3 months of each other. One is PG and the other two and I started trying this month. It would be so cool if we had our 2nd DCs within 3 months of each other again.

What are you doing to ttc?
I'm very clear on when I O based on CM and O pains. I'm sure of it from everything while TTC . I also started taking my Omega 369 again.

Re: Question of the Day - 08/30/09

I love the response we got to this question. We just might need to start having Question of the Day on her all the time!!!

Re: Question of the Day - 08/30/09

How long have you been ttc?
September will be our first month. We have spent July and August reading up and I have been charting.

Will this be your first DC? If not how many DC do you have, and age?
Yes this will be our first DC.

Who knows your ttc?
Some of our friends.

What are you doing to ttc? OPK's, BBT, checking CM or CP, Just BD, Other

Charting, checking CM and good old BDing!!!

Re: Question of the Day - 08/30/09

How long have you been ttc? This will be our 3rd cycle.

Will this be your first DC? If not how many DC do you have, and age? This will be our 1st DC

Who knows your ttc? One of my good friends who was TTC as well. She is now 8 weeks pregnant with her 2nd DC!!!

What are you doing to ttc? OPK's, checking CM, Charting Cycle days, cutting back on caffine, taking prenatals.

Re: Question of the Day - 08/30/09

How long?
I guess it will be a year since I started TTC, but I had a miscarriage in there and then I sort of took a break during the summer.

DC?
I'm a mom.

Who knows?
I'm not sure...I'm not exactly forthcoming about my sex life/TTC schedule. But most of my friends and family know about the m/c and I think they're pretty sure I'm going to go for it again. I think they're surprised I'm not pregnant again already.

Methods?
Ahhh...none right now. I went down the path of OPKs, Robitussin, Fertility Friend, etc. and it drove me absolutely mental for a couple of months. So not worth my sanity. I may try OPKs again this month or next if the mood strikes, but I am absolutely so much more relaxed now.

Good luck to everyone!
