Congrats and welcome! I think tracking your AF and taking prenatals is perfect for now :)

I agree, and as for book suggesions Taking Charge of Your Fertility and What to Expect before you're Expecting are both great.

Congrats and welcome, look forward to "seeing" you around!

Welcome!!Chat Icon Chat Icon
I definitely agree with the PP's suggestions about tracking your cycles. It's amazing the amount of things you notice about your body when you really pay attention. I suggest tracking your entire cycle. I wish I had done this so that when we started trying I would know what was a normal twinge/pull/pain instead of stressing over them!

So far I have been making a calendar and numbering my cycle days (CDs)
Then I record everything I feel, like twinges/pulls/soreness/pain. which side it happens on, if i'm tired, smileys on OPK, amount and type of CM, how I'm feeling emotionally, if I took my prenatal, if i took Mucinex, if I feel it's important to tracking my cycle, I write it down.
Then I use online ovulation calendars (since my cycle is regular 29 days) and note all the days I should be fertile.
If AF comes, I note that too, number of days she's here, feelings, etc.

So far it's really helped me get through the 2WW (which is pure evil torture) bc I know that the month before I felt x,y, and z and NO it was NOT a symptom
Chat Icon it was just a normal part of my cycle.

I say definitely give yourself an advantage and start tracking!

Good luck! You're already doing the best thing you can just by being a part of this board. I have seriously learned SO MUCH from the ladies here!! Chat Icon
