Hi there, I have been TTC since May '08, so I guess this is a good place for me! I have 2 kids from surprise pregnancies and now am ttc my third and man, I never knew it was so much work! Lol! My 2 kids were complete surprises, no trying involved, it was just that "one time" that we thought we were safe not to use protection and BAM! pregnant! Just like that! This one is being stubborn! Been married to my wonderful hubby for 6 years now, our kids are 4 and 2 1/2. Looking forward to our BFP's together!

Welcome to the group! I'm Jackie (27), my DH is Jon (28) and we've been trying for our first for 12 months now. I'm on a brief 2 cycle break from Clomid while I give my ovaries a little time to breathe. I'm hoping, of course, to not have to begin meds again though.  I look forward to getting to know you and hope you get your #3 real soon!

 to our family!!! you'll love it here. it's small but very supportive!!! we are a close-nit bunch!!! we're all hoping that we get our holiday miracle!!! my name is Lynda and i'm ttc my 4th child. my first four pregnancies (3 in which are living) came to me on pretty much the first try. This one is being very very stubborn. we've been trying for almost a year now. i got pregnant with my first round of clomid back in june, but sadly the baby died at 8 weeks and i m/c'd in august. i tried clomid again, with no luck for two cycles. i'm also giving my body a rest from the clomid!! clomid can really be hard on your ovaries!!! so here's to hoping this cycle is a success!!!
I hope your stay here is short and sweet. Alicia (Hopingfor1soon) and I Co-Host this board. If you need anything, please let us know.  again!!!

Welcome! I'm April (22) married to Jeff (22). We're on Month 14 of TTC our first. We're dealing with MFI so the odds of us conceiving on our own are very slim, we're doing one more IUI later this month while we wait for our IVF paperwork to go through.

I'm sorry you have to join us, but am glad you posted. Welcome to our board. I hope you feel at home here.
I'm Cel (30). DH and I have been ttc for 21 months. I'm way over the 6 month point, but enjoy the company on this board, so haven't moved. I've done 5 cycles of clomid, 1 was with a trigger shot and IUI. I'm moving onto injectables, probably after the first of the year. I've been getting acupuncture for a few months now and it looks like that may be making me O within a reasonable amount of time. I used to O really late. I still seem to have a short LP without drugs.

Welcome! I'm Cris married to Shawn and we've been trying for our first since August 2007. Hopefully this will be our cycle for a BFP, but if not, we'll be off to the Dr's in january to find out what is going on! Good luck to you and I hope you don't have to stick around here long! I do look forward to getting to know you though!

Hi I'm Juli and we're dealing with severe MFI. We start the IVF process in Feb. First DH has to do what's called a testicular biopsy so the doctors can extract as much sperm as they can directly from his testes. That's scheduled for 1/30/09. We have been TTC since Dec 2007, so officially at the one year mark. Welcome to the board!!

Welcome! I too have a 2 year old surprise. We were NTNP and walla. Now we are trying and we have been trying since the end of January 2008.
Good Luck - I hope you get your BFP very soon and you don't have to wait too long.

Thanks so much everyone! You are all so welcoming! Well 6dpo here and having some symptoms, but being skeptical I guess, just not wanting to get my hope up.
