Well, the good news is that I got my first post-m/c period right on time at 28 days on the dot. I also used an OPK this month and I got a + on the OPK on CD12, which would put me at O between CD 12 and 14. Right on schedule. I am happy that my body seems to be getting on track, and that is a huge relief as I know lots of women have troubles in this area. Oddly, I find myself feeling "lucky" for the first time in a while because of this!
So, DH and I BDed like crazy for a few days - the day prior to getting the + OPK, the day of the + OPK, and the day after the + OPK. So..... I think I've done all I can do to "make it happen" and I do know that I still only have about a 20% shot at success.... but I feel "lucky" today that we are even in this position to be in the 2WW!
Now if only time would move faster!

Yay for getting back on track so fast! I hope that the 2ww goes by fast and ends in a BFP. You're going to HAVE to post pics of your HPT's so we can obsess with you. When are you testing?

OOOH - fun! I will totally post my HPT tests! The thing is, I can't really even test early because DH and I will be in Mexico. I am due for the witch on Jan 23rd but we will still be in Mexico, so I will probably wait to test until the 24th, which would be one day late!
Now follow up with me in a week or so and you'll hear that I bought Mexican HPTs.

Only a 20% chance of conceiving any month, really? Isn't that the "average" stat for chances of conception even if you do everything right, so to speak?
Don't think I haven't thought of that!!! I mean, what's the harm of one little pee stick in Mexico? Ole! :-) Now I just have to decide whether or not I am drinking margaritas in Mexico or not...

Actually, yeah, I will have computer access in Mexico so you never know - you might just hear from me! I woke up this morning and immediately grabbed my breasts - they don't hurt.... yet.
And yes, I am mental. Already.
