Lurking for now...

Name: Michelle

Length of time TTC: Came of BCP in April. Will start as soon as October AF is done.

Methods used: My first few cycles off BCP were good and then I started Vitex which seems to have screwed with it so charting on Fertility Friend is not accurate right now. Will try all uninvasive methods when the time comes.

Anything else?: I'm oldChat Icon I turned 40 a few months ago and I guess that made my biological alarm clock go off. DH is 2 years older, but we think we're in good shape, so fingers crossed...

Re: Oh yes, it's another infamous.. Intro Thread!

Hi! I'm Liza! I'm not TTC yet but I realized At almost 35 how little I know abt my body and my cycles. I'm hoping you ladies can help guide me a little. My 16 mt old son was a surprise, and as wonderful as that was I would like to plan better for the next one. I'm hoping I won't have to get too deep in all the charting and technical stuff because I will never understand that but I would like to ask questions about my cycle, how to check cm, maybe get those ovulation sticks If we need to, but the first few cycles we want to just BD and see what happens. We won't try until next year though! Looking forward to getting to know you all!
