March Threadhostess ~ Maciascl

[maciascl]

This is my 1st time hosting a thread, so bear with me ladies...

Anyway I am cd30 of my 1st pp cycle & I am finally getting some sticky cm so I guess that is a step in the right direction. We won't actually ttc until probably June so until then I am just trying to get back in touch with my body & fertility signs. I never wake up at the same time, so I am not temping just listening to my body & useing a fertility saliva scope thing

Spring is comeing up this month. Spring is a time of fertilty. Hopefully we'll have lots of sucess stories as a result

[Jaysmylilpunkin]

Hi. I am still 2WW... No AF today and a BFN too, but I didn't get a BFP till AF was six days late when I was pregnant with DS so... I'm still holding out. I seem to have an awful lot of symptoms... and I feel like I am going insane over this CRAZY TTCing... I am soo emotional! OH and if you want you can can add DS 12/05 next to my name on the list. Thanks!

[Katica]

Nothing new here. Still waiting to O or get AF whichever comes first. I`ve started charting but have no idea how to read a chart...

[ms. pacman]

I am subbing. This is my first cycle charting and I am loving it! I had no idea how cool it would be to see a picture of my cycle like this! So I am in the 2ww. Oh, and thanks to Nichole R., I now have a link to my chart!

My waking times are all over the place, so I don't know how reliable my temps are. My 1.5 yr. old nurses ALL NIGHT and ALL MORNING!!

[ms. pacman]

Oops, forgot to actually sub.

[naturegirl]

Just popping in to release some conceiving magic :

I am now 16 weeks! It can be done!!

Happy, Happy March!! :

Keeping my fingers crossed for you! Sounds promising!


Also please switch me to two week wait. You could also add DS 12/04 and DS 6/06. Thanks! I appreciate it!

[Hollin]

Can I join in with you guys this month? I've been ttc for a while now with no luck. I have a 2 year old son who is still an avid nurser. I'm currently waiting to ovulate. Good luck to all!

[lilgreen]

Hi maciascl, I just noticed i'm listed under 'waiting to O'. Please put me under 'Waiting to be Ready' instead. We'll start ttc officially in April

Thanks!

[coffee-lovin-mom]

yay for all the February success stories! that inspires me! still hoping to catch that first PP egg....and in the meantime I was able to find a dollar store that carries hpt's so whenever I am unsure I'm just going to test
I'm really excited for Spring and I wish everyone good luck!

[attached2mason]

Thanks for the new thread!

Can I be moved to 2ww please?

I had decided if this cycle didn't end in a BFP that we would take a break. I"m not sure if that is still what I want or what . . . I guess we'll see at the end of the cycle.

I had an appt. with a specialist to get some preliminary testing done (hormonal, ultrasound to look for possible problems, etc) set for March 5. I got a call last week to tell me that I have been bumped due to scheduling problems to APRIL 29!!!! Yeesh, I am so frustrated. To get another referal and get in with another Dr would take 3+ months, so no point in looking for a different dr. Hopefully there is a cancellation and I can get in earlier . . .

I STILL have no EWCM. I can see that as normal when you have a smaller babe, but My ds is THREE! Shouldn't it be back by now?!? SO frustrating.

[hannybanany]

Amy, have you tried evening primrose oil to help increase ewcm? I hope your appointment with the specialist can be moved up.

Just wanted to check on you ladies I've been coming to this thread first on and off for 2 years and it's hard to let go

: for you all!

[ms. pacman]

Well, I got a temp drop this morning. Since this is my first cycle charting, I'm unsure. It looks like I might get my period today or tomorrow judging from other charts I've looked at. Does that seem right? That would be a really short cycle for me!

Thanks Hanny! How are you feeling? Good I hope
Yup, did that fairly early in this journey. Might be worth another shot, though.

[ms. pacman]

Well, I guess I just started AF! This charting thing is the coolest thing ever! I have to say this is the shortest cycle I've ever had, but I guess my body is still wonky from whatever happened last cycle. I'm so grateful to be able to more fully know my body this way! I think a 12 day luteal phase is in the realm of "normal", right?

edited b/c I guess it's a 11 day luteal since this is day 1 of next cycle

[ryan'smom]

Hi Ladies! On CD13 here and I expect to O any day now. Things I'm doing new this month: 100mg Vitamin B6 daily and I'll be using Preseed for the first time. My LP has been 11 days and my EWCM hasn't been very abundant lately. So we'll see.

Nice to see you Naturegirl and Hanany!! Hope you are feeling good!

Good Luck Ladies!!

Hope this is it for you! It sure sounds frustrating with getting into the specialist. I'll keep my fingers crossed for a cancellation! or better yet, a BFP!!

I'm going to try Preseed this month, because of my scant EWCM. I don't know if it will help, but I'm giving it a shot. Have you ever tried it before? Just curious.

Good Luck!

Laura

[Hollin]

I'm trying pre-seed for the first time this month too. I've heard good stuff about it so here's hoping! I took b6 last month but I still didn't have much ewcm. Just a tiny bit one day. Does anyone know if you can take Vitex and EPO at the same time? I'm taking just Vitex right now.

hello nursing mamas TTC. I have been TTC for about 8 months now while nursing my 2.5 year old. And, I am 39 years old so no spring chicken. I know that you can get pregnant while BF, but I wonder what others experiences are? I hate the idea of weaning my son (who is here) for a potential child that isn't here (does that make sense?). Some days he nurses alot and other days he nurses alot for short periods and we still night nurse as needed, but usually at least once during the night. Thoughts ladies?
