I am 35 years old, TTC #1 and have been trying since August 2011
I currently have chart (without temps) but it is not on Fertility Friend (yet).

Love the forum so far!

Lilacvioletiris, is there a good thread on EWCM and all of these other fluids, etc?  I am a clueless TTC newb.

Hi BellaWithBaby! Welcome.

Glad that article was OK-- the ladies who comment on that website tend to be smart and funny, so I thought it might be a good read.

AFM, I am excited. I think we got the timing right this month- my temps dropped yesterday and rose today, and my CM is suuuper stretchy, so we'll see what happens!

Welcone, bellawithbaby. Hope your stay is short!

Calpurnia7, have you looked at the information on fertilityfriend.com? It's very thorough and is like a summary of the fertility bible Taking charge of your fertility. But the ff site is free for that information, so it will familiarize you with the terminology and give you a better awareness of everything.

So happy for you, TeamViddy! I hope that this is your month.

AFM, my beta was neg as I expected, but my progesterone was great according to my gyn, so that's good to know. I have started very lightly  spotting (tmi--light brown?) and have a backache, and think this means that af is on her way. Other signs have been major craving for dark chocolate covered almonds--yum! 

I hope everything is going well for everyone and you have great things planned for the weekend.

Welcome BellaWithBaby!  I added you to the list.

I started the new thread for September.  http://www.mothering.com/community/t/1328152/bajingo-juice-into-the-fall-ttc-1-in-our-30-s-september-2011-thread#post_16636250

Who would like to do the thread next month (October)?  I have done it the last couple of months and I am ready to pass on the the fun.  Giving everyone some time to think about it.

Hi, everyone! I'm 38 and TTC #1. Dh and I tried a few years ago for about 16 months, and, then, well, life got in the way. We moved, I went back to school, and we've both changed jobs a couple of times. And now we're ready to try again! We ditched the birth control in February and I've been making a stab at tracking my cycles since the beginning of the summer. I'm looking into fertility testing as our track record from when I was in my early 30s wasn't good and there's no reason to think anything has improved since then.

I'm looking forward to getting to know y'all! And so many teachers! I worked in education for years and work as a type of career counselor now.

Andaluza, I got on board with ff.com and it's so helpful!  I'm getting the courses emailed to me and things are starting to make a lot of sense.  I don't want to stress too much over the charting quite yet, but it is nice having an idea of what's happening when and how I can tell.  Thanks!
