Lola, sorry to hear about your DH having surgery. Did he have a fall whilst dancing? I hope his recovery is quick and easy. So, is it definitely AF?

Cinss, I can't not chart either. It's the only thing I have control over. And I'm hearing you on being back to the girl lifestyle.

Pop and Cinss, your cycles are almost in sync!

Im sorry it takes long to get a bfp ladies! I was ttc #4 for almost 2 years! Got 4 m/c while ttc and I was doing the stupid msu the whole time! so not even just regular bd!
Got the first bfp second try but lost it and after that took so long. ( that pregnancy felt just like this)
Im just saying this to show I know how bad is to wait long and hope that you guys get that bfp finally this try!

5- hope you don't take this the wrong way , if it would be just the nub pic ok, but you posted a potty shot and it's a clear boy ! There is a turtle on that pic everyone can see it!!
So I just don't get it why do you always say girl??
I hope they will give you great boy pics so you can post more!

Skrimpy, that is exciting!!! My DH is a September boy too.

Bec, DH actually had an injury from a while ago, no fall, just from wear and tear. They are really like pro athletes as they dance for 6-7 + hours a day, so naturally, they get all sorts of hip, back, knee, and ankle problems. They really age faster in that regard, too. He had a piece of cartilage that tore off his knee (about a pinky finger sized one) that was floating around and causing him pain although he has been dancing and just taking anti-inflammatories and the like.

So yep, I think it is AF. Still slow starting, but it's not spotting so much. I usually start on 14dpo, so I have a 13 day LP. I have a feeling that my progesterone might be low right now for some reason, so I"m going to take my prog supps next month and see if it makes a difference.

AHHHHH, TTC5 I am so excited for tomorrow!!! What time is your scan?

Thanks Flava...I didn't know you ttc for 2 years with MSU! I knew it was a while, but not that long. You are so right, though, it can sometimes take a while for no apparent reason. Come to think of it, I have lots of friends who took a while. Most of them at least 3 months. It's hard when you are used to getting bfps first go round.....I have actually never ttc before as I got pg with the girls when we weren't trying. I figured this would be a piece of cake. Boy, was I wrong!!! Let's keep our chins up, friends. If I can try for 2 years and not lose my mind, you guys can go a few more months....you know it will happen soon!

Lola I hope everything goes smoothly for your DH and he's able to heal up quickly.

I know many ladies are greatly helped by progesterone supps, have you talked to your doc about it? If you usually start 14 DPO that sounds like a nice healthy luteal phase. What DPO did you start spotting on this cycle?

[skrimpy]

Can't wait to hear from 5 today!!

[Cinss]

Yeah me and POP are pretty close with our cycles, i like having a cycle buddy.

Flava, thank you for reminding me how hard ttc is for some, you put my feet back on the ground, i am so glad that all of your hard work finally paid off after 2 years. I was just hoping to have less than a 3 year age gap between my DD and the next baby, and i am feeling worried because it just keeps getting bigger and bigger each month. I never planned to have a 4 or 5 year age gap, but what will be will be i suppose.

I am excited to hear from 5 too, i cant wait to see those little baby boy pics

Lola, I'm getting sick of AF showing up for you. I know, how about you send her my way instead?

Flava, I didn't realise it took you so long to conceive either. It does put things into perspective. One of my best friends is going through IVF so I do try to stop and think that I am lucky to actually have the kids I have.

I didn't want a big age gap either Cinss, but mine will be at least 3 years now, and that's if we conceive next cycle.

So, have you all seen the news from 5??!
