Hi Ladies. I've been with JM since September (I think) and spend most of my time in the AIP forum. I just noticed today as I was adding a ticker to my signature that, as of today, we have officially been trying for 6 months now.  DH is 26 and I'm 26, and we're TTC our first child. I went off BC pill in April 2008, and I want to say that I was on those for maybe 6 years. My cycles have been anywhere between 30 and 39 days, but the past few months have been solidly around 30 days. So I think my cycle is getting back to normal finally. I follow the Creighton Model of NFP (observing CM only), but did start temping last month, as I don't really get a solid patch of good CM and had no way of knowing when I O-ed. I was getting completely frustrated at my body, and luckily temping has calmed me down a bit.
I really hope this month is our month, as this is something that I've wanted for a really long time now. I think I'm officially in the 2WW as of Feb. 13, but my temp is back down now, so I don't know. Anyways, I just wanted to introduce myself and say hi to everyone here, and even though I'm not happy to be in this forum, I am happy to meet everyone that is here. So hi, and I'm looking forward to getting to know you!

Welcome! DH and I are TTC our first as well. I'm glad your body seems to be regulating coming off BCP. I love temping to be sure to see when I ovulate each cycle, and I've gotten better at knowing my CM as well. Good luck this cycle!

Welcome. I am Christina (26) and DH is Tony (29). We have one son (2.5). I use the Billings Ovulation Method form of NFP (also observing CM only) and have been temping (or trying to) the last few months or so consistently. We are in our 13th month of TTC #2. I found out in November that I have PCOS.
Hope your stay here is short and sweet!
