Hi All! If you are TTC and will test in the month of November this is your post! The previous groups were such a success that we (the girls and I) decided to continue the experience! This is a group where you can discuss your hopes and fears, and frustration if we get BFN or AF. We can also give each other advice on BBT and CM charting. And most importantly: seeing that we are not alone with the BFN frustration!!! I hope this group will have many new members because we like to welcome new faces! So feel free to join us!
To join us, tell us a bit abour yourself:

And a bit of your ttc/couple story: DH and I have been together 15 years, married almost 11. Spent 7 years waiting for DH to be ready for kids, then another 2.5 years and 3 m/c trying (due to low progesterone) before we had our DD Beckett Elizabeth April 2, 2009. Due to my age and fertility issues, our RE suggested we try for another baby ASAP so we did and found success in our 2nd month. Our little ones will be 13 months apart!

EDD: February 28, 2010
Couple History: DH and I met on match dot com. Neither of us thought before our first date that we would be doing anything other than meeting for coffee, but coffee turned into dinner, which turned into more coffee, which turned into a walk, which turned into sitting in front of the same coffee shop, even though they were closed! A year and a half later he proposed and we were married almost exactly a year later (a year and 2 weeks). On our 1st anniversary, I found out I'm pregnant!

And a bit of your TTC/couple story: DH and I first became pregant in 2005 and unfortunatley m/c 6 weeks later. Then we became pregnant again in 2006, and on Jan 5th, 2007 we welcomed Aidan into our world. He is absolutley amazing, and when he turned two, DH and I decided to try for another. Before Aidan turned two, we werent really trying, but not preventing either. Its been a long and frustrating 10 months (considering I havent seen AF since July) but hopefully our time will come again sometime soon!

You're trying for baby # 1 (take 2)
This is cycle: #5 (really #10 as my dr agreed to count pre-medication months as trying months.)
Your possible AF arrival date: November 6th
And a bit of your TTC/couple story: Dh and I met in high school, but we started dating only 5 years later. We got married last year, and began TTC in May 2008. In October 2008, I had to stop TTC to take medication for Acne that would have given me a deformed baby. March 2009: I swallowed my last pill of the meds. April 2009: I swallowed last bcp. We are still trying... this month would give us a baby for our second wedding anniversary!!! It would be so cool! Plus it is perfect teacher-timing! Let's hope that it is perfect God's Timing as well!

Your possible AF arrival date: 10/28
And a bit of your TTC/couple story: DH and I dated for seven years before getting married. In all we've been together for almost 10 years. In February, we decided to begin the TTC process and stopped b/c in March. After several promising charts, we discovered that I have a very inconsistent LP that can, at times, be too short. So, I'll be going to the DR on 10/26 for a biopsy to determine whether or not the lining of my uterus is "in phase". If it isn't, then we know that I have LPD and will need progesterone supplements. In order to do the biopsy, I must first have a beta test to check for pg. DH and I are very hopeful that we'll get the best news of all tomorrow and won't have to go through the procedure! We are putting our faith and trust in God and His plan, which we know is absolutely perfect and better than any plan that we could ever devise. I'm not saying that it is an easy path to follow, but it is the only path for us! We know that God will not throw anything our way that we and God can't handle! In short, we're praying for God's Will!

a bit of your TTC/couple story: My DH and I were high school sweethearts, and have been married for three years (four in December). We conceived our ds during the first cycle (actually, the first time we ever had unprotected sex)! lol Because of that, we figured we could just decide when we wanted a second child, and start that month. We started in September, both of us feeling pretty certain that it would happen. I am a teacher, and was hoping to have the summer with my new LO, but God has a different plan. We are putting this in his hands, and hoping for a BFP soon. My ds is 21 months old, and is truly the light of my life. I can't even imagine my life without him. I look forward to spending November with you girls again, and hope we have lots of BFP's coming our way.

bit of your TTC/couple story: DH and I have known each other
since we were 8. He's my best friend. We were best friends all our

we started dating and we got married may 6th 2006. DH has no
natural children, and I have been wanting another child for about a
year. I worked on my health and we both worked on our finances and we
officially started trying in June when I had my IUD removed after 7
years. TTC is much more emotional than I thought and I'm glad to be
here where there is all this support. .

Took yaz and ocella to help with ovarian cysts, but instead it gave me GERD, so we decided to go off because my overall health is more important. I just wonder how long it will take this time around.
BABY DUST TO EVERYONE!!!

since we were 8. He's my best friend. We were best friends all our
lives but we always dated other people. About a year after my divorce
we started dating and we got married may 6th 2006. DH has no
natural children, and I have been wanting another child for about a
year. I worked on my health and we both worked on our finances and we
officially started trying in June when I had my IUD removed after 7
years. TTC is much more emotional than I thought and I'm glad to be
here where there is all this support. .
Your Nick: ZTBForever (so much easier than the last screen name!)
Where You are from: Right now, the windy and cold Southern California
Your age and Partner's age: I'm 24, DH is 25
You are trying for baby: #2
This cycle: 1st cycle off of BC, 7 months of Mirena, 1 month of Yaz and 5 days off of ocella
Your possible AF arrival date: November 19th, 2009
And a bit of your TTC/couple story: Married 5/27/2007. Has DS on 9/26/2008. Took 2 cycles to get pg with him after getting off of nuva ring. Took yaz and ocella to help with ovarian cysts, but instead it gave me GERD, so we decided to go off because my overall health is more important. I just wonder how long it will take this time around.
BABY DUST TO EVERYONE!!!
(**EDIT: YAY! The post is readable this month!!!)

Hey ladies! That crazy BZ monster kept eating my posts so I haven't said hello in a while. I didn't get my info to post in time, so here is me in a nutshell....
Your nick: <span style="font-weight: bold;">HorseAmanda
</span>Where you're from: Akron, Ohio
Your age and partner's age: 26
This is baby #1
Took 3 cycles (with over a year of preparation and trying to understand my body before that)
EDD: July 2, 2010
And a bit of your ttc/couple story: DH and I went to middle and high school together but never really hung out even though we had mutual friends. Once the Myspace site got huge and everyone from my class added everyone they ever went to school with, we were able to reconnect and start a friendship. That friendship quickly turned to dating and we got married less than a year and a half later in June '08. I was never sure I would be able to have children due to many females issues in the family (cancer, etc.), and a heart condition that could make things interesting. I am an intervention specialist (special education) for 8th grade students and look forward to a summer baby. We are thrilled to be blessed with our first little miracle and know we couldn't have done it without the support of this group. You ladies are amazing and helped us each step of the way. I couldn't imagine not hanging around to cheer everyone else on and celebrate with each BFP. Love you ladies!
ATP- Congrats! H&H 9 months!
Ellie- So glad to hear she is starting to do better. She has been in my prayers.
Trini- I started feeling icky the week I got my BFP. I was concerned I was getting the flu but it was so off and on that I questioned it. I really haven't been super sick, but there are definitely times throughout the day that I feel like I could get sick. Hopefully it stays this mild for a while. :-)
Any ladies I skipped- Just wanted you to know I am thinking about you and sending baby dust and sticky baby dust! I had this big long list of persos a couple days ago that the BZ monster ate and after 5 times trying to post it I got frustrated and went to bed, haha. I hope you are all doing well and gearing up for some November BFPs!
Me- As I told Trini, my sickness comes and goes, but it really hasn't been that horrible...yet...(knock on wood. I still have on and off mild cramping as things change in my body. My bbs are still incredibly sore. I have noticed that I have to eat smaller, more frequent meals to avoid heartburn and indigestion. DH and I went to our first prenatal appointment on Friday. They confirmed pregnancy and gave us a ton of info on what is going on with my body right now, what to eat to stay healthy and get all the right nutrients, and set up the next appointment where we meet the doctor we will work with (this meeting was with a nurse until my doctor was able to recommend someone for me). Next appointment on the 20th. Hoping for a picture by then so we can show the families on Thanksgiving the week after. Fingers crossed!

Good morning Ladies! Yay yo November! Good luck everyone! I will be hear reading and cheering along, since I most likely won't be testing until December.
Ellie - once again you did an amazing job!
Trini - Sending baby dust your way!! I am hoping this is your month! I will be emailing you sometime today!
ATP - Yay!! How exciting for your BFP!!!
Me - I know this will sounds awful, but my DH's Best Friend's wife I am thinking may be pregnant again and I can't help but feel a bit envious....They are younger than me, have everything they want, including an adorbale 2.5 y/o son....I know they've been trying for a second and last night we were there for a get together and she wasn't drinking. not unusual for her when we are out b/c she's the Designated Driver for her DH normally, but when we are atr their house she normally has a couple beers, she had nada this time....and she's not one to tell anyone until she's far enough along, so I have a feeling we may hear an announcement soon...I wish I could explain it, I'd be happy for them b/c they have been trying for a second and she had 1 ectopic a couple months ago and they are a great family and couple....Oh well...sorry, just had to vent a bit! Off to get ready for church, have a great day!! I am sure I will be on later!

Hello Ladies! I'm sensing alot of sticky baby dust coming our way in the month of November! Lets hope i'm right!!!
ATP- CONGRATS CONGRATS CONGRATS!!! I am so excited for you!!
Ellie- Thank you putting this group together. Such an amazing support group we've got here!
Trini- I know your a bit discouraged about the BFN, but with AF still not showing her ugly face, there is still hope!! And I will be praying for you.
Mommyqb- You never know, taking a break from tempting and testing may be what the Dr ordered when it comes to you concieving. I got pg with DS when I was taking a break as well. So good luck to you!
Me- On this end... November is starting off when alot of confusion. I though AF was showing up a few days ago because when I wiped it was just the slightest pink on the T/P. Then Friday I started spotting. Yesterday and todays its back to just the slight pink when I wipe. Im hoping that if this is AF should would come on so I can start this cycle, because I havent seen her since late june!! Then on the other hand it kinda looks like the implantation bleeding I had with DS...So who knows?? lol If it is implantation bleeding, how long til i can test and get a BFP?
To that ladies I forgot...Sorry. My persos will be much better next time, as I am still getting to know each of you!

Hey ladies welcome to November ... You are all in my prayers for those still trying that this month it will happen for you and for those who are on the journey that it goes well.
I am thankful for you guys over the past few months you have shared my pain and encouraged me and it has really helped me. I was on a few other boards dealing with miscarriage and it really contributed to my depression. Thankfully I found you guys.
I'm really drained as I didnt sleep last night insomnia is a b!tch. so I'll talk to you guys later

mommyqb- you are too sweet! Thank you for brightening my day w/those words! Well, I am not testing this month as I said (unless I don't start on the 23rd), but I will chart. I understand taking a break, I do. When I get to that point. I just write my temps in a journal by my bed and forget about it. When I am 'up to it' I enter them on FF to have. I am glad I did, b/c each new Dr and specialist have wanted to see my past charts. Just a thought though. : )

SAS: It isn't bad-- it is normal! :-) It is how we handle our emotions that causes problems.
Texanmom: WOW! You're SuperMom! :-) We're glad you're joining us and hope that this is your month!
Bio: Here's a question for you and other watch wearers.
The Quick Start Guide says, "Try to wear the watch at least 2 hours prior to midnight of the day you set the new cycle so it can acquire some data and not count that day as one of the 'missed' days."
Does this mean that I should wear it tonight and set it tomorrow? Or should I just skip that little red note and go on my merry way?
Trini: You can't dash in and out w/o telling us if you tested again!!! :-) I so hope that your BFP comes soon!
Shiner: GL! I hope your dream comes true soon!
Me: Well, my crazy 'ole aunt apparently got confused trying to find us. She showed up a day late. Interestingly, though, she is very good about always coming on the first of the month. Crazy lady! // I'm trying to figure out how to set-up "The Watch", but I'm nervous b/c I don't want to mess it up. If you're a user, please read my note to Bio and chime in. // Please say a little prayer for a co-worker's daughter. She's due on the 25th and in the early stages of preeclampsia<span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; color: #000000; font-family: arial,sans-serif; font-size: small; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;"></span>.

I would love to join you ladies! I currently co-hos the TTC in General Board! Thanks for pointing this one out Texanmom!!
Your Nick: tharper
Where you're from: Florida
Your age and partner's age: I am 26 and DH is 32
You're trying for baby #: 2
This is your cycle #: 12
Your possible AF arrival date: No idea!!! Currently CD32 and spotting for the last two days (5 DPO if I actually O'd)
And a bit of your TTC/Couple story: DH and I have been married for almost 8 years. DD is 5. DH and I always said we wanted lots of kids and close together! Looks like life got in the way of that plan. I have very irregular cycles and lots of annovulator. Went to a new doc 2 weeks ago and I am waiting out AF so I can start Clomid. If the spotting stops, I might be testing... Not really sure what to expect right now!
Good Luck to everyone!!!

We just came back a little bit ago from my BIL/SIL house, had to give nephew his birthday present he's 7. Anyways, starting talking to SIL and she said she has been trying to conceive for 7 years now and nothing. My mouth just hit the floor I thought she had just gone of birth control this summer but she said she hasn't been taking it since her son was born. I hate hearing things like this it makes me so nervous. SIL is at least 8 years younger than me. Now I know everyone is different, and i'm trying to keep in mind that they are not exactly into clean living which could have something to do with it. It just worries me that's all. I said a little prayer when I got home and I'm eating an extra helping of Yams tonight.

Tiffani--Yea! you are here!
Jodi--you are right everyone is different! Out of all the sisters, 2 of us are fertile and 2 really struggle. I am struggling now b/c of age and autoimmune issues. My other sis can't figure out why, the other 2 who struggled are having kiddos no prob now. Looking fwd to getting to know you.

WELCOME THARPER AND TEXAN!!!! You two lucky gals are now a part of the BEST darn board you'll find!!
ATP: I am sooo happy for you and DH!!! Sticky Dust!!
Me: Well, DF, DD and I got an apartment!! YAY!! Can't WAIT to be out of this house!! FMIL is driving me INSANE lately. I can taste the blood from biting my tongue. After the weight comment she made the other day, it's everything I can do to keep from snapping at her. It wasn't the first, certainly won't be the last, but it was the straw that broke the camel's back. December 1st is finally going to be my day of freedom!! It has been 2 years in this house, and even DD is beginning to ask why FMIL doesn't like me. I told DF that if that wasn't a sign we needed to get out, I don't know what is. So just a month longer and we can finally be on our own w/o Mommy Dearest there to stress us out!! I think thats what's been hindering our Baby Making. It's never good when it gets to the point where you don't even wanna BD because you're just too frustrated. So, girlies, only one more month before I know we can BD every other day like the dr ordered!! It could happen this month, but with the last 3 being uneventful, I just don't know...

Ellie- I thought I posted my information to be a cheerleader, but you didn't post it so maybe bz ate my post. Here goes
Nickname: RyJo
Hometown: TEXAS
Ages: Me and DH are both 33
Pregnant w/ hopefully sticky baby #2
Due Date: July 4th, 2010
TTC History: DH and I married in 2005 and miscarried at 12 weeks that July, and then conceived DD in Dec 2005 and she was born 9/11/06. We conceived again in November 2008 which ended in a heartbreaking loss of our second DD, Faith, at 22 weeks to Edwards Syndrome, and then miscarried again in Aug of 2009. After all of this it was discovered that I have a couple of blood disorders. We are now expecting again, and are on a daily regimin of Lovenox injections, baby aspirin, and extra folic acid. We're praying that God's will is for us to carry this baby to term, and that he or she is H&H
HOPPY- Round ligament pain happens when the ligaments in your tummy (esp around the sides start to stretch to accomodate your growin uterus and insides that are shifting and moving around. That's why it's funny that I started having them the night before I took my HPT, but with it being my 5th pregnancy, and the 3rd in 2009, I'm not surprised. It feels like a pulling pain, and usually happens if I try to turn over in bed too fast, or get up to quickly. I'm also already having charlie horses in my legs which didn't happen until much later with DD....Yey for the watch!!! I hope it works wonders for you, Bio, and Cayla this month....
NEW GIRLS: WELCOME!!! So glad to have you
