i usually post on the pregnancy website. i've been ttc for a few months with no luck yet. It’s too early to know if i'm having infertility issues just yet but i hope you don't mind that i'm over here too. you just are all a wealth of information and supportive to one another.
ladybug - of course we don't mind that you are here also. The more the marrier can you give us a little back ground info???? Have you consulted a doc yet, are you charting temps, etc?
i'm 27 and dh is 32. we've been married 7 years. we met when i was 16 and i was on bcp from age 16 until 20 when we were married. the only form of bc we used in 7 years of marriage was ::cough cough::: pulling out to be blunt. sorry i don't know any other way to put it. we figured if that got us pregnant than so be it. well a few months ago after i returned home from a trip he just let me know that he was ready for children! weehoo! so the first time we actually had bms i was sure i was pregnant...in fact i actually thought i'd feel myself 'getting pregnant' HA. well when af arrived that month i was quite disappointed so the next month i read everything i could on the internet and i was welcomed into the world of bbt's, ewcm and many other things i never knew existed. so no baby yet but af is due by friday methinks. (this is my first month charting bbt & cm). i hope i can hold out testing until friday. i'm very impatient. i’m pretty sure my luteal phase is somewhat short (around 10 days).......my cycle is at least 35 days so i feel like my chances are somewhat dampened by that.
i haven't seen my dr. yet but he did express concern at previous check ups that i had never gotten regnant. i'm thinking we'll chart and if nothing happens we'll see the dr. about it in november. also i have a pap and check up in september so i guess i could bring it up then.
***praying af gets lost this week***

I'm a veteran of BBT. The 1st objective indication I had that I was pg was that my BBT did not ever drop as it would when AF is about to begin. It stayed at the post ovulation level (while I held my breath!), and then I had the blood test when AF was 2 weeks late. Of course, I quit taking my BBT after the blood test was +. That is a good clue for those taking their BBT!
