TTC 2012 Group Year of the ball, Year of the bump

Hi Ladies

Strikkie and some of the girls mentioned that this is the right thread to be in.
I am new here and me and my husband have been trying for a year now. And I am sure as you all probably know I am running out of patience and I thouht maybe speaking to some ladies who know what I am going through will help.
Here is my story. I went to the gynie last year June for the first time to check if everything is ok because we were trying from Jan. The dokter said everything looks good except that my uterus is upside down but he said that is pretty normal 1 out of 5 girls are like that and I must just lay on my stomach after ttc. So thats what we did and still nothing. So I went back to the gynie this Month and it was around the time I was suppose to ovulate and checked it out and my egg was perfect so he said we must ttc for the next 3 days. But know he wants me to go this friday for a blood test to see if I am ovulating right and also he wants my husband to go for a sperm test. So I guess all I need to know at this stage is what should I expect please share your stories with me to maybe but my mind at ease. Thank You

Tracy I agree it does help to alleviate the stress! I do however spy on all the ladies here most days to see what is happening!

I watched a programme on tv the other day and the dr said that stress (about falling pregnan)t and sugar is nature's two excellent contraceptives! Maybe thats why so many woman fall preggies once they actually forget about it

KLK well done on the BD'ing!

Ah no Strikkie!!! Every morning, I would open my eyes and log onto FF via my BB to see if you had posted another temp. Ah Balls!

Hi everyone else!

Well, I jumped DH last night and I started with the Progesterone cream this morning but I must admit I am a bit scared to take hormone related stuff because of the risk of breast cancer (my mom had it) I have emailed my gynae my concerns.

How is everyone?

Sue & Ilse, I agree 110% on everything you both have said!
I find recently that by being off of Moomie (granted, not by choice, more because of seriously having ZERO time), I have really relaxed myself with the TTC journey.....relaxed ALOT!!!
I really don't worry about it any more....and when ov time comes, I'm really not worried about not being in the mood, and having to force myself anyway to get that BD in etc....and DH is also much happier with me being so much more relaxed at home too.
It sounds silly, and also melodramatic, but it's the honest truth!
I have found being out of touch with the TTC ladies has put me on a completely different path, and I'm loving it!
BUT, having said that, I DO Moomie!!!!!!! ALOT!!!!!!! You ladies are absolutely amazing...and that's the sole reason I have to come back and stay just a little hooked....
But for my own sanity, I'm keeping myself busy with work ALL day now, and not being constantly glued to Moomie....it seriously is an addiction, I swear!!

Sue- you are not melodramatic, it is the truth. Our lifes pass us by without us noticing...

I hear you Ilse - Feels like we get so involved in ttc'ing that our lives pass us by!
Maybe im being melodramatic

Morning girls!

Thanks for all the hugs and support. But like I said, I am SO gatvol and really don't care about it anymore (at the moment).

For those who asked questions - January 2011 is the 16th month I'm off the pill, December was our 13th month of actively trying. No, my DH hasn't had a SA yet and I haven't seen a FS yet. I wanted to give it at least a year without medical interference (since it can sometimes take that long for a normal couple). however, now I'm so sick of TTCing and everyone having babies, that I'll rather make 2011 about me - loose the 10kg I want to loose, do more fun stuff, travel more, than to live my life in 2 weeks all the time and with held breath.

If nothing happens during 2011, I will seek more spesialised help in 2012.

I will still be around, Moomie is just too addictive to quit cold turkey.

Sue - seems like you have a plan! Good luck with that!

Have a great day all!
