FRIDAY TTC POST (who is making a baby?)

Debbi,

I have my fingers crossed for you. It is awesome that your insurance covers fertility treatment!!!

Oh yeah I forgot to respond please put me on the list as well.  Just starting and apparently I do not know my cycle very well as AF came for a visit today so the last week was just practice.  So I guess my TTC will officially begin next week :)  Thanks

Should I add you at Robyn? If you need help figuring out your cycles then you can pm me, or post here. Give me some dates, info on your cycles. Are they regular? Have you tried ovulation prediction tests? Charting? Lets figure this out so you don't waste another cycle. Shari

Thanks Shari.  You can add me as Robyn.  Thanks for the offer.  I have been on just about every ovulation website that Google pulls up.  lol.  I am 35 but have never tracked my cycles, but know they are pretty regular.  Even though I was a few days early this month so throwing me for a loop.  I tried the OPK last month and thought I was ovulating but apparently did not read them right.  Do you suggest taking the basal temps?  I have not done that.  And I agree, I don't want to waste another cycle!  So as soon as AF packs up and leaves town I will be taking some serious advantage of my hubby :)

Small world I went to high school in Barboursville!!!!!  I lived in Timberlake off Route 60! 

Good luck TTC!

Wow Marla... I am sorry I missed your bfp!! The last few months have been hectic for me. Congrats to you!! That is awesome!! Shari

Hi all,
Need some support.  TTC since  June 2008 with no luck.  have tried OPK's, clomid, BD, and home styled IUI (at work- since I work on L and D).  any other suggestions.  My husband says it's all in the timing and most TIMES he does not cooperate when I think I am ovulating.

Since you work in L and D then you probably have a clue as to when you ovulate. Have you tried charting your temps to make sure you are ovulating? Yes, timing is important...but with the length of time you have been trying I would suggest seeing an RE. Also, has hubby been tested?? For us, we had pcos and super low sperm counts. With your home iui you probably weren't washing hubbies sperm...so for instance if they are swimming in circles or most of them are dead then iui might not help much without washing his swimmers. There could be so much other stuff going on. Oh... and hubby never knew when I was ovulating... I just raped him. LOL If they know then there is pressure and performance issues. But...if you just initiate with stuff they like they are not gonna turn you down. Shari

Oh yeah...do you want me to add you to the list? What is your name?

Oh my name is aleta and please add me to the list.  I haven't done the temp thing because iwork nights and days so I am never up at eactlyt he same time and I think I would have a lot of false data on that.  Hubby's been tested, I have been tested (with labs) so the next step is an RE but I am probabnly gonna wait till my insurance kicks in at my new job around March. Thaznks for advice.
