Welcome!

This is a revolving buddy group for women in the same part of their cycles, to compare notes, and symptoms. We also have a "2 Week Wait" buddy group for members who are post Ovulation. Every so often, a moderator will start a new thread for you.  If you feel a new thread is necessary, please alert the moderators by using the Report Abuse feature.  Good Luck! Baby Dust

Hoping that 2012 brings lots of joy to all of our lives.

Still here... and I can't believe I was so dumb! Someone on here mentioned B6 being for LP defects... I knew that, but I've been taking it the whole cycle! no wonder I haven't Oed yet! My body is obviously trying! I can't believe I forgot that. So, laying off the B6 until AFTER O now. Ugh. Happy New Year.

Hey ladies, happy new year! Hope you all had a great NYE with friends and loved ones and are entering 2012 full of hope for a FANTASTIC 2012 and all the wonderful blessings it will bring Smile

Got another temp above CL so looks like I am 2dpo. I'll wait till tomorrow's temp to officially move over to the TWW but all signs have pointed to the fact that it has happened, and with all the BD'ing we did I'm hoping 1 good sperm met 1 good egg (or 2, I wouldn't complain Big Smile) and that I'll see my long awaited BFP in 8-10 days! (positive thinking can't hurt, can it?). My DH is planning to go snowmobiling on the weekend I am likely to O next cycle so here's hoping we get it right this time! GL ladies and extra lots of Baby Dust to all of us this year!

Oh my goodness, LatvianGalcom, I did the same thing! LOL I used B6 before my last pregnancy, and didn't have any problems. I used it this time and started to realize nothing was happening, so two days ago I stopped taking it. It's looking like I'm gearing back up for O, but my OPK is still stark white. Ugh. Maybe tomorrow. I was really hoping we could take advantage of DH's days off, but he goes back on Tuesday. *sigh* Oh well.

Stjude11 - Welcome to the group!!

superjan - I keep hoping our cycles will line up, but I'm always a bit behind. Hopefully things are gearing up soon. Good luck on that TWW!!!

AFM - Stopped taking the B6 the other day. Big oops on that one. Got some CF today and I THINK some slight ferning (still not sure about it, since this is my first cycle using the scope), but NOTHING on the OPK. I thought for sure it would have a line. Maybe tonight.

HAPPY NEW YEAR, LADIES!!!

Hi Ladies! Happy New Year to all of you! May this year bring all of us a healthy baby and pregnancy!

I am back from vacation, and even though I was able to follow the conversations, I didn't get the opportunity to respond from my phone. It was heartbreaking for me to see Meso and Becca back here. I am so so so sorry for your loss. I hope that this year truly will bring that little baby for you and all of us here on the boards.

Superjan - great to hear that you have O'd! I hope I will follow you soon to TWW. Baby Dust

Starrlight - I know it can be really difficult to hope for a bfp and get AF instead...especially during the holidays. I was looking at your chart this past cycle and it really looked promising.Let's hope that it is gearing up for the real deal this month. Luck

Meso - I am so grateful that you are spreading your optimistic and positive attitude on this forum. I hope that your body and soul heals soon and that your little son will eventually be right about his prediction. Baby Dust

Becca - I am sorry for your loss and hope that we can give all the support you may need going forward. Hug

LatvianGalcom - I just learned something new too... oops! Thank you for shedding some light on this for me too. I will stop taking my B-Complex until I O. I think I am gearing up to O though, since temps dropped and I have creamy CM...I didn't get to use OPKs while on vacation but will start today. Hopefully you will O soon!! Until then, enjoy all the Baby Dance! Baby Dust

Stjude - Welcome! Hope you have a short stay here at WTO and quickly move to TWW. Fingers Crossed

Heather - That is a great hope to hang on to! I hope that this year will be your year to experience a healthy pregnancy and bring a healthy baby home! We are here to support you on this wonderful yet challenging journey. Flowers

Keeponhoping - sorry that Aunt Flo showed up! Hope that you got to enjoy New Years Eve and was able to kick 2011 in the b..and greet our baby year, 2012, in style! Wishing that your dream does come true soon!

AFM - back from sunny and warm Florida. Now trying to recover from the vacation. lol. We did too much traveling, and not enough relaxing. But I had a great time. I am on cd 12 or 13  and I think I am gearing up for O. My CM is building up nicely, but didn't use OPKs while on vacation, and no EWCM yet. I hope it is happening soon though. I will stop taking the B-Complex for now and see if that helps O come quickly. I am also taking extra Vitamin D that I heard helps with O. Good luck ladies, I have the feeling that this year will be awesome!

Daisy- welcome back! Sounds like you had a nice vacation, and I totally know what you mean about needing to rest after a vacation...isn't that always the way it ends up? Hoping you O soon, in the meantime, happy Baby Dance!

Starr- I know, it always seems we miss eachother with our cycles, but it's bound to catch up one day and we can obsess together in the tww! Hopefully you're not far behind me this month Smile

Jules- yay, definitely cycle buddies! Hopefully we both had a magic fairly sprinkling bucketloads of Baby Dust this time around SmileSee you on the flip side!

AFM: A third high temp, so confirmed O for me. I hate to leave you lovely ladies but it seems I am no longer waiting to O. I'll save you a spot in the TWW and hope you are not far behind me. Baby Dust to you all!

Welcome back, Daisy12! I stopped taking my B6 vitamin and upped my Vitamin D, too. I had started to gear up for O, then it totally stopped a few days ago. So I stopped the B6 immediately, and since some said D can speed up O, I upped that. It seems to have worked. Big Smile

Superjan - Yay for that third high temp. I'm right behind you!

AFM - Back to zero ferning today, but my OPK is just about positive. I went ahead and counted it as a +, since it will definitely be so by the evening. I'm really glad it only took two days for that B6 to stop messing with my estrogen! That was a close call! Now we're just waiting for DS to go down for his nap, and we'll take advantage of DS's last day on holiday.  I'm so glad I'm going to O before we head to my grandpa's next week. That would have been awkward! LOL

Congratulations to all you ladies with Nest!! I hope this is your cycle, and you get your healthy sticky bean! 

Hugs to those of you who got AF instead of your nice BFP and to those of you who lost your precious one. So sorry to see you back here. 

I hope all of you are enjoying some nice holiday Baby Dance and here's to babies in 2012! :)

 

AFM: I think I will just become a permanent fixture in the WTO group...lol! You know your body is wacked when you take a HPT AND an OPK on the same day! Laugh Disturbed and missed temps aside, I don't think the Clomid and Vit D are working, and I'll have to move on. I think maybe I should stop posting in the "fertility" forums...it seems like "infertility" fits better these days.. I guess part of me just doesn't want to admit that my body is not going back to normal after BCP's... Angry DH and I are both starting to worry a little bit...

Lindita - could it be that you O'd on cd19? Looking at your CP and CM and disregarding the OPKs, I think that's likely. Your cover line is probably 97.1 or 97.2. So, if that's correct, you are now well into your TWW, but not far enough yet to pick up a bfp on an hpt. Does anyone else think I could be right?

Starr - I stopped the B-Complex today and guess what? I got a +OPK and EWCM....I wonder if it is really linked in my case, or just the relaxing from the vacation did it, but I hope I will be right behind you and Superjan in the TWW. Have fun with DH this afternoon! Baby Dust

Julesb and Superjan - Looks like I may be following you in a couple of days to TWW - first time I actually O'd before cd19/20 in a while. I am very happy that I didn't have to wait 3 weeks as usual. Good luck to you in TWW - Hope this will be our month!! Luck

I believe I'm joining you guys... I'm a teacher; so hoping to have an EDD sometime in November. Just off the pill 12/14/11, and had my first O right on time three days ago. Was thinking we should start TTC at the end of this month (looks like the next O will be around Jan 29th), for an EDD around Oct. 25th. My DH and I were both born 3 weeks late, so I'm thinking that will take me into November. I'm worried it might take a while, but who knows, we might be lucky. Otherwise, EDD might be too close to my birthday and Christmas! Any tips?

Excited to begin my journey of TTC!

Me (30), DH (28), Married since Sept. 2010

Off BCP 12/11

TTA until 3/12, then TTC #1

Starr- Hold on girlie I hope you O soon :) funny how vits change our cycles praying for an eggies!

Lindita- Don't give up yet Vit takes a while to build up in your body for one thing :) if your levels are super low it can take over 6 months at a a dose of 4000 IU daily. Have you had blood work done to see where the level is ?? and My friend took 2 yrs of doc appt and natural remedies to get back on track. Waiting sucks but know we are there with and for you. Hugs and I pray things start to balance out for you.

Shaebelle- GL with this cycle :) pray it ends with a BFP and sticky bean or beans !!

Daisy-  Hope DH swimmers meet up with your eggie !!! See ya on the other side and may I jump over to the TWW just in time to see your BFP!!! 

EmilyMay- GL with the 2 Week wait girl and welcome but the TWW 2 week wait is another post !! GL hun can't wait to see you and DH get a BFP too!!

AFM- my temp nose dived super low back to pre- o temps glad my body knows where it should be praying for another early o but happy if i just O this cycle :) OPKs on board this month again, gonna temp just cause i think i would go insane only using my opks. gonna not check cervix until close to O and not after doc said it can lead to irritation and higher my chances for M/C again so ok during o but no more after that he said :D  

Well happy to see all the Oer that moved on may you BFP's be a short wait away! 

GO eggies GO Meet them swimmers!! play nice and plant yourself deep and snugly grow inside and make us MOMMYS!!
