Hi,
I'll join. I'm 29 and trying for our first. This will be our second month of TTC. I haven't told any friends/family about TTC and would love to have people to talk to that are going through the same experience.

Hello everyone, im ttc, have dd 2.11. Weve started trying properly this month, now on day 12, think i may be ovulating today, usually have short cycles, let the 2ww begin!

itsjustclaire · 19/04/2010 16:28

Good to meet you all
I have short cycles too, I think I should be ovulating around 25th
Fingers crossed for everyone

babylove2 · 19/04/2010 17:54

I dont have a clue when im ovulating this month as i had a early mc last month and my oeriod was late 4 days, so im not really sure how im going to work it out

IfAtFirstUDontSucceed · 19/04/2010 18:17

Count me in

DH & I have been TTC#1 for nearly 3 years (Just stopped using contraception for first year and a half, and then began activley trying for the second year and a half).
We went to see fertility specialist at the beginning of March who lined us up for a string of tests, completley unaware at the time that I was actually pregnant
Unfortunatley I lost the pregnancy at 5 and a half weeks, but at least we know we both work!!
AF finally showed up on Friday, first since the M/C so raring to go now!

This will be the first month I will be charting, and have a stack of OPKs - so bring it on!!!

Normally very regular, 28 day cycle - let this be THE month for us all!

babylove2 · 19/04/2010 18:23

Yes let this be the month, we have all seamed to recently have early MC's .. and come tpgether on the same thread and same cycles.

I think this is def a ;lucky one girls

itsjustclaire · 21/04/2010 11:47

Starting to feel a bit nervous but excited at the same time as I'm getting closer to my 'window of opportunity' could this be the month???

Babydust to everyone

ihearttc · 21/04/2010 13:03

Can I join in too please?!

Im 33 and we have a DS who is 5. This is second month of ttc and my cycles have all gone a bit weird so am seriously not impressed! I was always every 28 days as regular as clockwork and now for some bizarre reason they've gone really short...last months was 24 days and the one before that was 21 days!

we never really had to try for DS as he was literally conceived the first time we tried...DH is convinced he's got super sperm lol but Im older now and have got a funny feelings its going to take longer this time.

My period started the 14th as well so it really does look like we're all at about the same time!

Im got some clearblue ov tests as think I actually ov early in my cycle so am giving them a go this month. DH is still stuck in Dubai at the moment cause of the volcanoe but should apparently be flying home early hours of tomorrow morning...may have to jump on him when he gets in lol!

Looking forward to getting to know you all.

babylove2 · 21/04/2010 13:39

Hello ihearttc

my hubby also thinks he has super sperm lol, we shall see hopefully next month if they really are "super"

I'm still on my period at the mo, mine goes on for a week, so should be finished sunday, but my cycle has gone a bit funny this month so not sure on ov this month.

Very exciting, hope this is a extra lucky thread ladies

good luck think happy baby thoughts .. and dont forget to put you bum on the air after .. works a treat

IfAtFirstUDontSucceed · 21/04/2010 20:26

Haha - that is so funny, my DH is convinced that he has super sperm too!
We've been TTC for a while now and have had some tests done. After his sperm test we went to see the specialist and when the doc told us he was above average I could feel the smug grin appearing on his face from over my shoulder. Ever since then he's given himsef the nickname super sperm!

caija · 22/04/2010 13:37

OMG!! BL I cannot believe that!!

I hadn't seen yr post about putting yr bum in the air!!! Then I wrote it further down lol!!

I did it ALL the time when ttc for our 3yo ds, i do worry about having a third as my ds has such complex problems...he has a genetic disorder, so rare it hs no name. He suffers severe epilepsy, has damage to hs brain, cannot walk or talk etc, it was to do with Jack's chromosomes at conception, they messed up somehowbut bth mine and my DP's chromosomes were tested and ours came back fine...so they have said to us that there is less than 1% chance it happening again, but IF nd WHEN I fall pregnant I will be getting the tests for genetic disorders and stuffxx

OP posts:
babylove2 · 22/04/2010 13:47

Oh caija, sorry you have to worry about that, im sure everything will be just fine and 1% chance is so low, if im right thinking you have more chance of winning the lottery.

You and dp can only do your best and fingers crossed everything will be ok.

ha ha how funny "bum in the air" i have done it everytime with mine, not very romantic after you turn around and hubby dashing to toilet to clean up.. we should write a book "the real ttc" lol
