My name is Linda My Fiance and I have decided to start a family. We've know each other for over 9 years and are best friends and although we are getting marrie dnext year, we can't wait to have children of our own. I come from a big family with kids of all ages everywhere! Been waiting a LOOONG time for it to be my turn.. and I am finally in a position to say... I'm ready! Bring on the babies!! I'm ready to be a mom... hoping that I can get pregnant. We decided to start in December.... and here we are still trying!

I have always been irregular and never gave it much thought til now. Trying to time things just right has been difficult. Charting & monitoring flucuated so much that even thats hard to figure. My temps never the same. Starting using the O Monitor and hopefully that will help. January AF never showed talk about anxious and a long & dispappointing month. We think we did things right this past month and hoping February is the month for us to concieve!

No luck, March, April, May, June or July 2007

August 3rd, 2007... Well I havent updated in awhile... July I went to the Dr's she is doing alot of blood work on certain cylce days to read my hormone levels during certain times of the cycle.. then I have to go for the dye test.. and we will go from there to see if I need to go on Chlomid or see a fertility specialist. I was supposed to skip AF's visit in July as that seems to be the pattern.. but I had her 2 weeks late.. or 2 weeks early depends on how you look at it.

August 17... So I started yesterday I didnt waste my test on Wednesday as I woke up took my temps and it had dropped figured AF was on her way. I have my HSG scheduled for next Friday and I go for more blood work Saturday. Better luck next time I guess! Not so disappointed this month knowing that there is follow up to figure out why my "girly plumbing" is not working right.

October 11... I am waiting to test next wednesday this was my first round of clomid. Got my + on OPK last Thursday followed with lots of pain on my right side abdomen, thinking ovulation pain? BD every other day for a week - My boobs are sore like usual so not using that as much of a sign but have been extremely tired. Praying for a BFP!

October 23, 2007.... Ding... Ding.. ROUND 2 - Starting 2nd cycle on Wednesday... Things look good as far as it making me ovulate... just not good enough to get me PG... keeping the faith though....

December 20, 2007... We have stopped trying for the time being. After a year no luck but not giving up hope just need to focus on the wedding and we will try in a few months. Just dont want to be 8 or 9 months pg at the time of wedding as my luck goes.. I will go into labor & not be able to go to my own wedding. Baby dust to all of those trying!! and see you back in a few months!! Congrats to those with the BFP!!

July 14, 2008... It's been months since I've even visited this site as I needed to take a break mentally & emotionally from our efforts of TTC. Since December, I've had babies booming all around me. I have had a abnormal pap come back , which lead me to a colpo which has lead me to having the LEEP procedure next month. I was going into the Dr's to start back on fertility appts and come to find out my desires of wanting to try again in July have now been post poned even longer... hoping that I atleast get to consumate my marriage in October ~ It's 9 weeks after the LEEP so hoping I am in the clear by then... and hoping the ok is given shortly after that to start TTC again! Any one have the LEEP? Whats ur experience with TTC afterwards?
