FRIDAY TTC POST (who is makin a baby?)

Good morning ladies.

A big congratulations to Jackie who got her bfp last week!!

This week I predict one bfp as most of you are just o'ing or barely in the 2ww.

I just wanted to say that you ladies are awesome. I mean I know we don't have our own board for TTC, but you ladies have really been there for each other...on Fridays and during the week if you need extra support too. Not just those TTC either...but even the ladies that have graduated are awesome support to everyone ttc. Keep up the good work ladies! Reach out to those that touch you, that you can relate too. I know I am in contact with several of you through pm... I just wish I had more time for personals during the week, so I need you guys to keep being there for each other.

Anyway, I guess I am being sappy today...but I love you guys. Shari

I'm still around and still trying.  Didn't happen this month, so hopefully next month.  Going in on 6/1 to check my FSH levels so we'll see what happens.

Debbi

Still trying after my loss in March. Currently on CD 7. No BFP this month. We'll see about next month.

Shari,

You can take me off the list.  Got  a BFP this am. Just hoping this one is sticky.

 I just wanted to wish everyone good luck and happy baby dancing!
sending sticky BFP dust your way!
Courtney

Waiting to ovulate and pissed at my husband - not condusive to a lot of baby making effort unfortunately.

Best of luck to everyone!

I O'ed really late this cycle on CD23, a week before my period is due.  Here's to hoping I  will NOT see AF on Sunday!!!  I posted earlier this week thinking I was PG because I thought I had O'ed earlier in my cycle, and my boobs hurt sooooo bad, but since this is my first official cycle off BC, I guess everything is all out of wack, not to mention I have not O'ed since I was about 13 because of my weight and then I went on BC at 16 to regulate my periods.

 I am on CD13 so I will be the big O will be here in the next day or two I hope. We will wait and see if I get my BFP this month. Hope you all have a great month. Baby dust to all TTC and Sticky Dust to the BFP's.
 Thanks for all the support... Group Hugs!!!!
Amy  

if you O late usually your period shows up later, generally on average there are approximately 16 days between ovulation and when AF shows up. Mine was 15-16 days every month

Here's hoping that you get your BFP!!
