I had my IUD out in May and this is the first cycle we are trying since then!  I got a + OPK on sunday and DTD and now are just waiting!  This is for kid #3, I have a boy (6) and a girl (2 1/2) already and can't wait to have another one! 

It took us forever to get pg with those two and I was 215 and 260 when I got pg with each kid.   So this should be fun to be skinny (I am 140 now at 5'3") and preggo now in this smaller body!  I am a little worried about gaining weight and then trying to lose it, but oh well.  I'm sure I'll be fine.  I have to go buy all new maternity clothes now too, yay!  But I'll wait till I am pg to do that, I'm just excited to be able to fit into normal maternity clothes- I'll be able to go into a store and find anything I want now!   I won't have to kill myself to find something that fits my growing belly in the huge sizes I used to wear!  I had to order maternity clothes off lanebryant.com with my last pregnancy and they were somewhat cute, but I hated that I couldn't find anything at the stores.

I had to go on clomid with the 2nd and got pg on the 2nd cycle of the meds.   I never got a dark line on the OPK's either until I got on the clomid and it forced me to ovulate.   This line I got on sunday was dark, so I'm trying to not get my hopes up that I actually ovulated and it might just take one time (or maybe a few months) to get pg again!!

I'm excited, but trying to not get my hopes up.

wow Sandy, I hope everything is ok!  Have you had your progesterone levels tested?  My doctor said that 1 in 4 women is low with their progesterone levels and that's part of why they miscarry.   I had to be on oral progesterone pills for the first trimester with both my pregnancies so I wouldn't miscarry.   My lining wasn't built up enough when the fertilized egg was ready to implant (because of low progesterone) and so it would try and implant and then "fall off" because the lining wasn't thick enough for the embryo to hang onto.   He called my m/c a "chemical" pregnancy.

I got pg when we were trying for a 2nd baby at 9 months trying and saw a faint line when I was like 2 days late.   I started spotting about a week out and then it turned into a mini-period and then passed some big clots and m/c.   My doctor said to get on the progesterone the day that I find out I am pg and I did when I got pg a few months later (on the clomid) and was fine!   If you are worried, have your progesterone levels tested. 

I hope everything works out for you and that your spotting stops!!!  GL!

I am almost to the TWW.  Should ovulate around Friday.  This is our first month of trying after my surgery.  I had two early losses preop.  I don't seem to have a problem getting pregnant, just staying pregnant.  I am hoping with my WLS and being more healthy I will be able to carry a pregnancy to term.  Let the waiting begin!
