Trying to Get Pregnant

Intro!

Thought I would make it official and say hello!
My DH and I have been trying since August 2013. We have been together for 5 years and married for almost 2.
Of course I thought I would be pregnant by now, I spent so much of my life trying NOT to get pregnant and now that I want to it isn't so easy. I have been slowly starting all methods of tracking as my periods can be anywhere from 32-45 days. I still have not seen a doctor to see if there is a reason behind such random cycles.
Anyway, I love reading the boards and seeing all the questions and advice given, and hope this will only help in my journey to parenthood!

Check out the Newbie Blog. It's a great source of information. I would definitely recommend getting a BBT thermometer and joining Fertility Friend. That way you can see when/if you are ovulating.
My cycles are very irregular too. My last cycle was 31 days and the one before that was 70. Not every women has a regular 28 day cycle. I think a lot of girls on here have cycles that range which is why FF is so helpful!
Good luck!
ETA: to add the perfect gif I just came across, love this show!!
BFP: 6/4/14 EDD: 2/11/15
I have been using FF, and using opks .. but my problem is lately when I get what looks like a positive on opk, we BD for that day and the day after ..and stop. I end up getting my period 14 days later.
I know I really need to do weekend BD and then a Tuesday and Thursday BD at the very least. But then it feels so forced, but at this point I need to try sticking to that type of schedule to see if it works...
Welcome and good luck to you!
