Hi everyone,

Age- 27
dh age- 30
Children- ds- 11/2/04
ttc- #2
cycle-2
cd- 26 (1/11/04-todays date)
dpo-8

Abbreviations

cd- cycle day (counted from the first full day of af)
af- aunt flow - period
ob- old bitch- period
dpo- days past ovulation


please add your stats and any suggested abbreviations!!

Children- dd aged 7, dd aged 6
ttc- #3
cycle-2 (I think? is this the no. of months I have been trying?)
