Hoping i did buy Fertilr Focus, its a ovulation saliva kit.. I heard it helps instead of buying OPKs all the time.. They quite costly here as well to keep buying OPKs and on top of that not getting our BFP................................................................................. We bd when we want.. I stopped timing my cycles, i feel that way we put too much pressure on each other to perform... We were suppost to do our next GIFT , IVF ICSI in April but we opening a 2nd optometry practice in another town.. So my dh is really busy and stressing bout that... So maybe we do it then deciding how he is or we wait till May or so.... Hping all works out for all of us real soon... Gets very very Frusatrating., but we have to remain positve yeah.....................................................

Hi Ladies, **Fratz** Thanks for you kind words, I really needed a little support today, woke up this morning at 5am in tears and don't know why, I guess I'm feeling a bit emotional and a little discouraged, which doesn't make since because I'm usually very optimistic, but it's like you said we have to remain positive. I hope everything works out with new business and it as stress less as possible. **Hoping1** regarding the HSG, I think you have the right idea there are pros and cons to getting the tests done, but in the end you have to go with your gut, two years ago when ttc my DS my RE was convinced we needed to have a HSG but I had no problem O'ing and had regulare cycles, our problems with conception back then was related to the Male factor but even still they wanted to test, in the end we decided to put it off and we ended up getting our BFP without it.
How is everyone~where are you all in your cycles? Is anyone else in the dreaded ttw? I'm on pin and needle here and i feel like I'm loosing my mind not to mention test too early then getting frustrated even when I knew it was too early to test in the first PLACE, even so seeing the BFN still shocks and saddens me. But I have the solution NO more testing!
** I have a Question for you ladies** How do you get through your ttw? What are some of the things you do to keep your mind off of testing?

Blessing, sorry about how you feel. Remember we all feel the same way you do.. Ive been ttc for 3 years now and counting... I have had 2 m /c already... No kids still.. Its very painful and it hurts like hell.. but we have to keep positive and hope all works out soon for all of us.. Be strong and postive... I also use to test alot but now because ive been ttc for so long i kinda stopped.. only test if i feel maybe there is a chance which is hard stilll..
All the best and hey dont give up.. soon we will be holding our beautiful babies in our arms.................

schar - what day should I start taking the vitex I will go to the health food store over the weekend. How is the baby doing? Give her a kiss for me. Well I guess I might have messed up if you are saying that the soy will cost infertility cause I took it this month. I do have a question for you and maybe you can shed some light on this for me. Yesterday I was cd 25/10dpo and my temp was 98.41 I was sick as a dog. I was sleep by 7:30pm and I am still tired I want to go back to sleep. Anyway when I got home from work around 6:15 I had to pee really bad but I wanted to test so I had 2 opk and 1 hpt I grab the opk and I tested well 2 lines came up real quick the test line wasn't as dark as the control line and I am look at the test now but it is there now today cd 26/11dpo my temp is 98.52, I'm real bloated, lower back is hurting, my b___bs are a little sore nothing major, I was having cramps earlier in the day off and on but now nothing my cycles have been 29-30 days long and for this cycle I started on Dec 29 and I ovulated on cd 15 (Jan 12) I should get AF between Jan 26-28 I am thinking more like Jan 27 and fertlity friend said I could test on Jan 28 what do you think should do just wait and see what the temps are in the morning cause for me my temp start going down and so far they are not. I have 1 opk and 1 hpt left. Help I am going crazy. Krissy68

I have 1 opk and 1 hpt left? I want this soo bad. I got me some pads just in case. Help I need advise.
Blessings - How are you feeling now? Well I think I am at the end of my cycle I am on cd 26/11dpo and AF should be here between Mon - Wed we shall see. As far as the 2ww I try very hard not to think about it so I read or find a good movie and watch when I am not working my second job. Good Luck to you.
takingsteps - What cd are you on? What dpo are you? How long are you cycle days. You could have tested too early. Keeping fingers cross for you. Let us know. Krissy68

Hey ladies**Taking**So sorry to hear about your BFN... I bet Krissy is right though...aren't you only 10 dpo? Give it a few days.... **Blessings** Thank you so much for your info.... so you have a male factor and have been pg once? That is good news! I talked to my DR today and am not going to do HSG. He said we might as well stay focused on DH's problem since we know I am ovulating and have period no problem. DH did move his urologist appt up from May to March. He has a SA end of Feb and when we go see the uro in March we will know if this is working or if we need to take a look at Dh's veiroscele or IUI... I'll keep you posted! **Blessings** As far as the 2ww, I try to keep busy and I enjoy being able to BD for 2 weeks without worrying about timing. I also drive myself crazy with every temp, but ya know, I have good intentions :). GL girl! **Krissy** The ++ OPk is good news, right? :). I would wait and test again in a few days and then, if no af, test again when ff tells you to... good luck! **Schar** What does vitex do? Do you have male factors too? I'm not sure if that is something I should try or not.... what do you think? **Krissy** Do you have male factors, too? Sorry if you've answered this but I can't recall.... It will happen.... I know you've been on here awhile now, too... Our time will come! **Hope you all have a good night!

Krissy I would take your hpt now, I also am taking vitex until I get a bfp or I think i'm pregnant it's up to you I would just take it until you think your pg for sure it wont hurt the vitex that is. Also I would not rely on symptoms for pregnancy because when your trying for a baby you over a___lyze symptoms that are just normal pms. I actually had really bad cramps when I got my BFP thought I was already miscarrying thats how bad. It will happen for you also I realyzed temps aren't really reliable either but I will say I had a triphasic chart. Good Luck to all of you! Fatz: I am back and forth on TTC i think I may actually sit out 1-2 cycles and give the Vitex a chance to work I am afraid if I wait too long my endometreosis will get worse making it hard to concieve. I was recently diagnosed they found it duing c-sect. It can make it hard for me to get pg. usually after birth of a baby it will slow its progress down making it easier for me to get pg. If it gets worse I may have complications. So we'll see I am a bit worried on how long to wait.

Hey Ladies, **taking** So sorry about the bfn, I know we are close in our CD, did you just get a bfn or did AF show up? how are you? **Hoping** thanks for the tww advice. BDing for Pleasure, what's that? LOL, it's a shame but I haven't looked twice at my poor DH since I O'd last week LOL, but I'm making up for it this weekend. **Krissy** I feel much better today, thanks so much for asking, I know you are at the end of your cycle too (seems like everyone is) when will you be testing (if at all)? Wishing you lots of luck and sticky sticky baby dust.
**Fratz** After reading your posts I instantly began to feel better. I can't tell you how much I appreciate you, it means alot that although you may be going through you own ttc ups and downs you always take the time to show kindness and encouragement to others. I know this ttc journey takes its tole on everyone but I most appropriate how you helped to put things into perspective, some of our ttc journey's have been longer than others and it could seem incredibley insisnitive to complane about ttc after only ONE cycle! I see that now, thanks for NOT being unkind. I am so grateful to you for your kind words and support (all of you) so I wont complain, instead I'll focus more on what I do have rather than what I don't............ and count my blessings.

Hi ladies, I hope I am not intruding on your site, I am looking for support while trying to conceive. And you all seem incredibly supportive! My husband and I have been trying for a little over a year and a half. Last May I was diagnosed with PCOS because I hadn't had a period in 3 months. My doctor told me it was most likely brought on by stress from nursing school. I didn't want to start taking meds so I decided we would just keep trying to get pregnant naturally and when the time is right it will happen. Well I am tired of "waiting". I went to my Doctor the 14th of January and he started me on prometrium so I would start my period. I started the 21st..seven days after I started the prometrium. So I called my Dr. and they told me to stop taking the prometrium and start Clomid today, the 23rd. 3rd day of my cycle through the 8th. I then go to have an ultra sound done on the 30th of this month to see if I am going to ovulate. (sorry I am not familiar with the abbreviations you all use on here, hopefully I will learn what they stand for)!! I am a geriatric nurse and am new to the uses of fertility drugs...I am new to this whole thing, I am just upset I haven't just gotten pregnant like so many of my close friends and family. There are some really amazing stories on here and I wish each and everyone of you the best...I hope to hear back from you all! God Bless!

Hi Ladies :)
I'm 31 and am trying to concieve our first child, any tips? I'd love to have twins but one would be just as much of a blessing. Thinking of trying clomid 50mg days 5-9, any success on that? Really nervous as this will be my first cycle and I think I've been sending myself crazy trying to read up on all the side effects. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Congrats to all of you who have conceived, blessings to all in 2009!!!
