Lets check in...
How is everyone doing? Where are you at in your cycle? Trying anything new?
I am waiting to O, on cycle #5. I tried taking soy this cycle so hopefully that works out and this is my first month using the CBEFM so I can't wait to get my "peak" reading. It's been such a roller coaster of emotions for the past month. I never imagined how frustrating this was going to be. But I am keeping the "it will happen when it's meant to happen" mentality. I have to schedule my annual so I am hoping when I go I will have other news too!!

Re: Lets check in...
I had posted this earlier on my own, but here is my update........................ I never thought I would say this, but happy that AF is here and an update....
I have had a messed up cycle since 4-21. After being really sick for a few weeks, and then I have been under tremendous stress, I had a weird cycle that lasted 2-3 days, I think that was really when I ovulated. Well, Af showed up Tuesday night, and glad my body is getting back on track finally - and boy is she making up for lost time, and I can start timing my ovulation finally and getting the show on the road so to speak.
PS remember the dr. I went to and told us DH volume was low? and he also had DH walking around with an infection for 2 weeks until he told us , well I found out his volume is still within the normal range! I think I am going to report him to the AMA aninomously, I am so angry and ticked off that a dr. could do this.... I am finally calm after weeks of being so stressed from this and a lot of other things. I think I am going to start going for massages to relax me..... here is some baby dust for all of us....

Re: Lets check in...
I've been trying for a little over a year...i went to the doctor at the 1 year point and did all of the tests, dr and I agreed that I should try using OPKs for 3 cycles and if it doesn't happen I have to go back to discuss next step.
I'm on my 2nd cycle trying OPKs and my first cycle temping...I got a my first positve on the OPK on Tues, another yesteday and also today. BDed Tues night and last night but DH is doing a double tonight and I won't see him until tomorrow when i return from work and he's going to be exhausted and moody....my luckl!!! last month I went away for the weekend 2 days after my positive and now DH is not going to be in the mood....praying that the last two nights were enough.
to all!

Re: Lets check in...
Finally got AF on sunday after taking provera. I am on CD 5. I am using my saliva opk and will start taking my temp tomorrow (I was confused when to start and so I will have a late start with the temping). I am hoping that we O this month.
I had went for blood work up with my gyno and she had said that my bloodwork came back and it looked like I may have PCOS but wouldn't be sure until a pelvic sono but my ins wouldn't approve it because I haven't been trying for a year. So my dr said to keep on trying and using opks and charting till she can see me again in 6mo which by then the ins will hopefully approve the sono or I get new ins.

Re: Lets check in...
We are on our third month of trying and I am probably ovulating today. This is my second month using the fertility monitor. I used an OPK yesterday to confirm. I also took a shot of expectorant before we did the deed yesterday. I have an appointment with a new ob/gyn next Wednesday.
That's where I am at!

Thiks does not seem right to me. You were not ovulating on your own!! That is a medical issue! You need to call your insurance company let them know you are TTC and that you did not ovulate on your own until given provera. You need a sono-have your Dr write a letter if need be. Waiting 6 months if you have PCOS will not do ANYTHING for you.
I am going to say this to everyone on here. Ladies-Be your own advocate. If you think something is wrong it probably is!

I aslo agree... my dr. did the internal sono right away when I told her I haven't had AF since feb... its a medical condition regardless of whether or not you are TTC and I don't see why your ins. wouldn't cover it!

Re: Lets check in...
I think I am about 9 or 10 DPO. I am supposed to get AF on Monday. I am trying to hold off testing until I'm actually late. But I think she's coming b/c I was pretty crampy this morning.

Re: Lets check in...
This is my first cycle and first month TTC!! I am on CD6. I went off the pill in March and have had normal AFs since then (knock on wood).
I'm a little nervous that I won't know when I'm actually ovulating, but I went on babycenter.com and they gave me a date range. That'll work for me in this first month of TTC. If nothing happens, then I may get a little more sophisticated and get a fertility monitor.
to all!

Thanks Ladies for your advice, I wish I had been home all day to read this I would have def tried again with the ins. I get so frustrated with them that I tend to give up easily. I had no idea that I could get my gyno to write a letter to them. Do you really think that would change their mind? I have HIP and I am always having problems with them. I need authorization for every single dr visit, its quite annoying. I am only using this until my DH ins kicks in in a few months. I was just going to let it go until I get the new ins but you ladies def gave me the urge to fight against it. Thanks. I will keep an update next week about what happens. I am going to call my dr and have her fax them a letter. That was a good idea that I never ever thought about...neither did my dr.

We seem to have the same cycle still! 
DH and I have entered into our second cycle off BCP. I should ovulate the end of the week. I just need to complete this cycle, and go through one more full cycle, and we will officially be TTC.

My back has hurt for 2 days and I have had the sniffles also. I dont know if its in my head though
I have some CM as well. My bbs are not really sore at all. Maybe the slightest bit. I am due for AF on June 6th
