BFN and an intro
NMW071000

I've lurked, read the intro boards, and feel ready to join in the fun. So here we go.
I'm a 25-year-old high school teacher; DH is 26. We have a beautiful blonde-haired, blue-eyed blessing in the form of a rambunctious and busy two-year-old we call L. We didn't necessarily try for L. We "removed the goalie" in December of 2010 and by January of 2011 we were pregnant.
Not so easy with baby #2.
I stupidly assumed above method (remove birth control, add candles and lingerie) would be just as effective, but all these negative tests are seriously getting me down. I just joined fertility friend and am trying to embrace the world of charting, which I'll admit, seems a bit intimidating.
I will do my very best not to ask dumb questions, and I plead for forgiveness if I do. As of right now, I am two days late and quite a bit poorer thanks to a handful of clear blue digital pregnancy tests, all mocking me with the dreaded "Not Pregnant."
So anyway...here I am! Hoping my stay is short, but excited to get to know you.

No period.
Now it's the sixth, and I'm just now starting to spot. I assume my period was just late. I'm certainly not taking another test. I understand a bfn when I see one.
Thanks so much for the advice. I'm investing in OPKS this weekend to become a little more aware of what I'm dealing with here. I may will have lots of questions, I'm sure.
Thanks for the warm welcome. Loving it here already!
I agree; the ladies are awesome. I feel absolutely ridiculous for not starting to be proactive sooner. I have learned SO much just from lurking, and I am a little embarrassed about what I should have remembered (and didn't) from 9th grade health class. Eek.
I'm excited! This has been my favorite part of ttc so far. Besides the sex.
Got it! Cutesy crap is out! Thank you for the pointer.
