7) I don't know when I ovulated that is the question been cramping off and on since the 6th of May but hubby and I did bd about 6 times!
so I guess that would be considered a complication!

by Tasia32, May 23, 2009 05:58PM
Well I just want to encourage you by letting you know how things went for me. DH and I were TTC a baby for 1 year and 3 months before we finally got pregnant. I thought that something was wrong with one or the both of us. I was thinking of looking into fertility clinics until I realized if God wants me to have a baby then he will give me one and I stopped thinking about. Comes to find out a month or so later I was pregnant. Lots of prayers to you ladies!

Faith have u tried using Preseed... I use to have Pain during sex when i first started ttcing and my primary doctor suggested using lube and it helped... but since your ttcing it is better to use preseed instead of the other things like KY.

Baby dust to you...
Thanks,
Karen

by faith2086, May 23, 2009 09:25PM
To: karenros
i never use any lubs at all. but whats preseed and where do i find it. sex is comfortable for me. when im having sex the lady down their is very read "moist" lol.tmi. but yeah tell me bout preseed, im sorry to hear ur situation. its sad but i thought maybe this blog would help ladies express themselves and problems.  but good luck and baby dust all over u and spouse.

by karenros, May 23, 2009 10:24PM
To: faith2086
http://www.preseed.com/   but if your moist down there around penetration time then u dont need it.. you get preseed online or at some pharmacy.. there is something called pre conceive that you get in walmart( some states only) but i havent seen it NC.. i get my preseed at a pharmacy cause it is where i go to see my endocrinologist.

Pre-Seed® “Fertility-Friendly” Intimate Moisturizer, vaginal dryness relief shown in independent studies to not harm sperm..

Hope this helps...

by smjmekg, May 26, 2009 09:22PM
To: faith2086
You make a very good point, not to just have sex and to make love. That is after all what we are doing, creating a child out of love. We have to remember that, and to relax and not stress. Like cmoretti said, it takes healthy couples up to a year. So stay positive and good luck to us all!!! BABY DUST!

WELL we all are some what in the same boat.... no ships are sailing. but i wouldnt give up i would just go with the flow."tarajanes" im so sorry for situation. i know it probably feels worse to loose a child. but thank ur blessing that u can concieve. some women like myself cant even say they know what its like being preggers. but i do wish all ladies baby dust. and dont forget like smjmekg said we are making babies out of love...(K.I.T) keep in touch ladies

by Lance06, May 27, 2009 01:15PM
1)Yes, ttc #2
2)Only for 2 months......took us three years to get #1
3)DH has slow swimmers....but apparently that didnt stop us from having Sarah!
4)Nope...going with the flow....
5)Yes, Sarah was born almost 4 months ago, 2/3/09
6)Yes, 1
7)We normally try to have sex as much as possible around the fertile time!

by faith2086, May 27, 2009 02:40PM
To: Lance06
congrats on ur new queen. its funny how i tell everyone thid but. dr's always say oh after the first child bcareful, because you can become pregnant very eaisly. i dont find that truthful

by Lance06, May 27, 2009 02:48PM
To: faith
i dont think thats truthful either....because DH and I have not used any form of BC since I had sarah and we have def had sex in my fertile periods...and nothing for me...so, I guess it all depends on the person.

With our luck..its going to take us another couple of years to conceive again!

by faith2086, May 27, 2009 08:04PM
To: Lance06
i think it would happen when you are so busy,that being pregnant is far from your mind. that usually happens. i have a friend who has had a son last yr. 4 months later she got pregnant again. baby due next month. the error in this situation she never wanted kids. and she feels like her life *****. she is a party person. i told her either keep ur legs close,or give them to me. i love them. people like her make me upset. we havent spoke in months. i cant be around her i just hope her unborn son,and her older son are doing great.but baby dust to all everyday

by bluegenie2003, May 28, 2009 08:24AM
1)HAVE U BEEN TTC?  Yes
2)HOW LONG?  off BC 18 months, officially TTC 12 months
3)WHAT ARE UR COMPLICATIONS? Me-ovulatory disfunction (I almost laughed when i heard that one!), and DH has low morphology
4)HAVE YOU GIVEN UP? not quite yet..doing IUI soon
5)HAVE U BEEN PREGNANT BEFORE? no
6)ANY MISCARRIAGES? no
7)HOW OFTEN DO YOU HAVE SEX DURING OVULATION? 3-4 times usually

I havent' given up yet, but I have gotten to the point where I feel a lot of the time that this won't ever happen for me. And it doesn't help that 6 of my friends are currently pregnant!!!

1. yes
2. 2+ yrs
3. mthfr, low progestrone, systemic lupus
4. yes
5. yes
6. 5
7. dont really think about that anymore.

by kylie27, May 28, 2009 04:40PM
1.  Yes
2.  3 month but 4 cycles
3.  It just won't happen!
4.  Somedays yes, most days no.  The BFN hurt more each time.
5.  No but have a feeling a was as i had major symptons for a few weeks then bled mid cycle and then all symptons stopped.
6.  No?
7.  Was every 3rd day but my doctors nurse told me to do it every 2nd day from the time AF leaves to when she comes back again.  The nurse said she ovulated 2 days beofre her period with her 2nd child and thats when she fell prenant.  I don't see how that's possible because I thought that AF arrives 14 days after you ovulated?

Good luck to all!

it's such a disappointment when you want somethin so bad..I believe we all have been there at some point. each person with different reasons. (bluegenie) i know how u feel i have 2 friends pregnant. but each one thought it could never happen. ladies dont give up just go wit the flow. when that day do come. u will be in so much dis belief. u will want all type of test done.lol. but it will be a joyous moment. much love and baby dust......
