Let's make some May babies

I'm joining you. I am not expecting to succeed this month - will be amazed if I do due to poor timing. Have been trying for ages and have had two early mc along the way. Due my period in ten days, and will be away on holiday in the sunshine during the crucial week next month. You know you hear all those stories about people going away and relaxing on their holidays and getting magically pregnant!

loulou I second the advice to take it easy and just enjoy the swi for the first few months. If it takes longer than 4-6 months then you can mental with charts and ovulation tests. In the meantime, sex three times a week should do just fine. You will get to know your cycles over the next few months, but hopefully you will be pregnant by then. You have about a 20 percent chance of getting lucky the first month, so dont stress yourself too much if it doesn't happen first time. Last time it took me seven months. I used ovulation tests, got fed up of them, and decided to have a month off ttc. That was when I conceived!

spuddy has your man been to the docs?

I'm in too! We have been TTC number 2 for 3 weeks and i have just finished my period so am hoping this month will be the month! That is probably super optimistic but I am so impatient!!

Good luck to us all!

i am in! i have been lurking here for the last couple of months and we've been ttc since May.

My partner works away a lot and also has phimosis, so i just dont think enough of his, er, contribution is getting as far up and in as necessary

I'd be delighted too. I think I've just worked out what SWI means and am a) laughing and b) agreeing. Doesn't help that we work such different hours...

Fingers (but not legs) crossed...

I'm in!! Good luck to us all.

would love a may 2012 baby, after 3 years of trying i've lost all hope!
booked in for a laparoscopy & hysteroscopy and i've heard others get pregnant pretty soon after having that done, so maybe i would get a may baby!! :)

ur only just starting out so my only advise to u would be to try and not get caught up in TTC, it's so easy to get crazy over everything related to TTC
also try not to discus EWCM or any other TMI with DP and just jump him whenever u can! men don't do too well with knowing everything! get ur self some fun underwear (maybe u won't fit into them much longer! :) 'baby making' should be fun not a function)

a may baby is very possible, as u have just come off the pill, i conceived my DD straight after coming of the pill (something to do with hormone surges and what not)

good luck and fingers crossed for u :)
