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!

Re: Hey Girls! Will hopefully be OFFICIALLY joining you soon!
Welcome!! 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 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!!
