Trying to Get Pregnant

New to the Board

Hey y'all! I have been lurking for a while but this is my first post so I thought I would do a quick intro.

I am from Georgia. DH and I got married June 9, 2012.  This is our first month ttc and also my first cycle "officially" charting.  In the past I have always kept up with AF and symptoms but now I am doing temps and OPKs as well. I went off bcp in October of 2012 so that I could let my body and cycles settle down and I'm glad I gave it so much time.  My cylces have been all over the place with a range of 30-41 days. The average seems to be about 37 days. I initially started charting because with my wonky cycles, I had no idea if I was actually ovulating.  OPKs have given me positives this month so hopefully my temps will confirm in the next day or so. I have read TCOYF and understand what my body is going through but it's nice to have a group of ladies going through the same things I am because, well, as supportive as DH is, he doesn't quite get the "waiting for the O" and the TWW anxiety as well as another woman experiencing the same waits.

Thanks for all the helpful info already! Good luck to everyone!

    Welcome to the board!  It sounds like you've really done your homework!

    I highly recommend recreating your account and changing your SN because you've given us both your first and last name now.  Not a good thing to do on the big ol' internet.  You never know who's creeping out there.

    Good luck!

    Waaah! As active as I was on my knot board, you would think that would have crossed my mind.  Is there a way to create another account associated with the same email address or to I have to use another email address?

    Wow, you've really done your homework!  I wish I had been so proactive when we first started, it took me 3 months to figure out what was going on!

    Good luck!!!
