hey, this is my first time making this so if you can help me out, that would be great. i dont know how to add your charts, so if someone can tell me, that would be great. thanks ladies!

[elonwy]

Could you add mymaya to waiting to O? I didn't get her. Thanks

When you want to add a chart, first copy the URL (I use tabs in firefox, so I have the thread open with requests in one window and the editing page for the first post open in the other, makes life easier) then add a chart link by the name which looks like : seechart without the space. Highlight that text and click the link button (the world sign with the chain) and a box will pop up where you can paste the link into. Does that help?

[jenniferadurham]

6dpo. Trying not to read into anything my body is doing right now. Easier said then done.

[Sweet.Bee]

mymaya, hi, I'm on CD2 too, so I guess we're cycle buddies for now. Sadly, my wait to O is over 3 weeks long (last cycle O was on CD25), so you will probably leave me behind soon. Good luck to you and welcome!

[Stevi]

Cherrie... Try clicking quote in last weeks thread. Then you can see how the chart links look, and you can probably just copy and paste them from there. Have fun! It looks daunting, but it's easy once you get the hang of it.

AAM... CD13 - Sooo... I either ovulated last night or am ovulating today. And, Smilie just canceled today's visit. This, as usual, S.U.C.K.S!!!

I texted Slim, but no reply yet. Maybe I should try Specs?

I did try to get some sperm last night. I ended up wandering around a casino, trying to find the guy. Then, he has the nerve to get upset with me and leave! Men!

I was able to get in touch with my donor from my first pregnancy. He has offered to help. But, he has to come from out of state and has some things to deal with before he can come. So, not sure if he can actually come anytime soon. (Obviously not today! )

Anyway, I'm off to hunt sperm. If any of you see any, be sure to herd them this way!

Everyone think Fertile Thoughts!

[Cherrie]

thank you elonwy, stevi

im cd 2 too, i just bought a bt so gonna start temps.

how are yall doing today?

[Mrs.Nap515]

Hi Ladies!

I'm Noelle, just married my DH Tom in May, TTC #1 for a while, I have hormonal deficiencies and was just diagnosed with hypothalmic amenorrhea, so it will be a long road for us. Doctor wants me to see an endocrinologist (next saturday) then we are gonna go ahead with round 1 of clomid...so i'm going to need help, i have an acct. on ff, but NO idea how to chart! If no luck, then off to injectibles we go! so i can't wait to make some friends with similar situations!

Can I be added to the group? I'm so excited to have found this site!

-Noelle

[Cherrie]

welcome!
hi Noelle, you have been added.
hope you get your bfp asap!

[SimplyRochelle]

Will you move me to waiting to be ready


We're taking a nice longggg break from mdc and ttc in general. The last 3 years of my life have been swallowed by my desire to have a baby and I just need to focus on something else, anything else for a while. Thanks!

[Stevi]

SimplyRochelle... I hope your break gives you the peace you need. I'll miss you, though!

AAM... Sweet came through! I'm seeing him in about an hour.

[karmab]

ditto rochelle. i know it must be a hard decision to make, to take an extended break when you want something so badly. i hope you find joy in this part of your journey, too, and i wish you all good things and much happiness. one thing i have learned with certainty, each of the hardest things i've had to go through in my life, in the long run, each of those have blessed me in ways i never could have imagined at the time i was dealing with it. may it be the same for you girlfriend. peace to you!

[mymaya]

http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/1bdc8Hi Sweetbee, my O is usually around CD19 or 20, but sometimes later.... as I am getting older I noticed that my more-or-less regular 30-day cycles are getting either longer or shorter.... lol. good luck to you! and.... how do I add a link to my chart?

Thanks!

[just_lily]

Can I be added to Waiting to O?

I *think* this is the link to my chart http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/2a6a78
. I just have a free membership and I was having trouble finding the right link to post.

This is our first month really trying to TTC our #2. My DD just turned 2 at the beginning of July and we haven't used birth control since her birth... but we have been so busy and tired that BDing didn't happen all that frequently.

This is my first month charting, and I am trying soy iso. I think that I have been having a short luteal phase as my cycles have been about 25 or 26 days so I am hoping to help things along a little.

[bootsvalentine]

I'm using OPKs for the first time. I'm not temping but will start this cycle. I am supposedly ovulating tomorrow based on CM and other signs last month, but I keep using the OPKs and still nothing. I am freaking out slightly that I'm not ovulating at all. Last cycle I had a bunch of EWCM for days before and after predicted O date. and I'm not seeing that at all. OPKs have no line at all.
We're going to try BD every other day until I get a +OPK. I don't know when that will be?!

If anyone can offer wisdom, I'd much appreciate it!

[elonwy]

We just took a giant leap today and bought an elliptical. I can't actually use it yet, cause I'm still healing, but I really need to get in shape, I've gained so much weight while I've been sick. I weigh more than my husband does, which is just so not ok. I'm excited though, cause you put me on an elliptical in front of the television and I'll go for hours. I've decided I really want to get more fit before I get pregnant. I also think if I lose the weight it will help me keep from getting sick again. We shall see.

[Stevi]

Sweet came through! So, I feel a little better about this cycle. The timing for BDing wasn't great, but, better than nothing! I didn't have the temp drop I normally get on ovulation day, but I slept badly, so that could explain it. I did have a very low waking temp last night (97 point something), and tonight it was higher than usual (98 point 90 something).Therefore, I am guessing it will jump tomorrow, confirming today as O day.
Wait, now it's 98.20... If my temp drops tomorrow, I'm going to have to hunt down more sperm! Oie Vay!

[elonwy]

Stevi Yay for Sweet showing up!

[CLH_X3]

just dropping by to say HI, sorry i havent been really active .. with moving house and everything iv been so busy..

me and my OH made a deal were going to BD 7 days in a row from CD10 ... so i should 100% catch the eggy!

Im on CD8, took soy 3-7 and im using my cbfm this cycle and grapefruit juice + epo and i took my first dose of cough medicine today.. YUCK.. makes me feel sick after! LOL

anything for TTC though...

good luck everyone and FX for you all...

[Silverbird]

well my temps shot up. its 4dpo to early for s triphasic pattern?
Pehapse its becuase I deamed I was in a burning caravan?
Or mabey the deam was becuase of the temp rise?

How does everyone get the balance between postive thinking and not getting your hopes up?
Do you act like your pregant two weeks each month?
Would you tell your yoga teacher your ttc?

good luck all wih wating, oing and resting!
