Hello,
Thanks for the help with the acronyms, I'm sure I'd catch up.

So I need a hug. DH and I had SWI from d last day of AF and I am 2days late now only for AF to finally show up. The sad part is DH and I wld be apart for a couple of months cos of work. My question is this are we doing anything wrong? AF is never late but in d past 2 months AF has been late.

Should I be worried? I'm thinking of seeing an Ob/Gyn already. Pls I wld appreciate any advice.

Hi Tinytwinckles,

Are you serious,,,,,,, going to see a gyno after only trying for 3 months?
Seems very hasty, these things take time.
By all means, go for a check, go for advice, but as you, appear to say that your really only going for SWI from Aprish' time, and were now into July, that's a very short time, in the big picture of things.

Are you tracking you cycle properly? When we started trying I thought I knew which were my fertile days but it wasn't until I tracked properly that I got pregnant.

Tinytwinkles · 23/07/2012 08:53

I think I am... Got d bbt,OPK and even started checking CM, but my cycle has been fluctuating, so I just might not be doing it correctly.

Pray enlighten me.
