Trying to Get Pregnant

Newbie Intro

Hey all! So I've been stalking for the past month (cycle 1 of TTC), trying to decide if I think the board is a good fit, will help, etc. Anyway, I decided you all seem pretty cool, and the board probably won't hurt, so yeah, here I am!

I'm 28 and DH will be 30 in a couple weeks; we've been together for 9 years and married for 4. Cycle 1 I just used OPKs, and I'm planning to start temping for Cycle 2... Just waiting for AF to start, likely today/tomorrow.

I'm not really sure what else to put in an intro, so feel free to ask Qs if you have any... Oh, we live in California, and I promise I read all three intro/guideline posts multiple times, and I'll try really hard not to f--- it up! :)

Edit to add: I'm on ff and have read TCOYF and a couple others.

  • Thanks!  And yes, @severmilli12, I had a sneaking suspicion of that fact from many of today's posts alone.  I thought about waiting for a different day to post my intro, but *shrug* it seems to be a pretty regular occurrence.  I also read the Postpartum Preparedness AMA pinned post and... well, I'm still here, just question my sanity a little more because of it.   ;)

    Hello and welcome! :) Best of luck to you!!!
  • Hello! Thank you for taking the time to read posts at top and to lurk your first month to feel how the board will go. I've only been posting again for about a week. But I think it is vital for you to know what to expect instead of walking in like. ..

  • Welcome! I'm 27 and hubby is 30 and we have been together 8 years, married 5. I went off the pill in late July and am on cycle 2 of seriously trying. My best advice is don't let yourself get like I did. I thought it would happen right away and was devastated when my AF showed up. I used an app to track data and got a positive OPK but it didn't work. Now I have 2 apps, am temping, and using OPKs but so far all negative. It almost feels like too much. Try to have fun and enjoy the process. Good luck! : )
  • Thanks! :)

    Anyone who names their cats Troy and Abed must be pretty cool, so sounds like you'll fit in just fine here. :) Welcome and best of luck to you!

  • I took a HPT on wednesday, came up positive. Took a urine test at clinic friday, came up negative. I have not had a period since Sept 19, only very scant brown spotting for one day before I took the test. I am waiting on a blood test, but I'm going crazy. I have ALL of the symptoms, Chadwick's, skin sensitivity, back aches, enlarged nipples. Is there a chance I'm pregnant and the urine isn't picking it up?

    A. Don't high Jack this girls post.
    B. It's against tou to ask us this question.
    C. We can't tell if you're pregnant. Wait on your blood test for that.
    D. If you are pregnant, go on to trimester 1 board or your bmb. There's no need to wave a bfp in our faces.
    E. If you aren't pregnant, read the threads that are pinned to the top.

    ^^ Agree.. could have atleast made your own post. And why can't anyone read through any of the newbie posts or even the closed posts due to change of subject or going sour? Any of those would show you proper edict on this board. Sorry super moody today so I'm going to stop here.

  • Hello! I'm new to all this, but my name is Liz and my husband and I have been trying to conceive for 13 months and tomorrow I'll start my second month of clomid and yesterday had my clomid check, which Doctor said everything was good, but had an emotional breakdown in the appointment and left so embarrassed
