My Journey of TTC Baby #1

I have finally been bitten by the baby bug. I have searched all over the internet to find a website where I can post my feelings and get positive feedback from women who are going through the same thing as I am. Today I have read success stories and also stories of hope. I have hope...and I pray that it will turn out as a success!!!

So, I am 26 years old. My hubby and I got married on 9/14/07. We decided to wait a year to TTC...that year went by so fast!!! Now we are both ready to become parents.

I have irregular periods...I have had them for some time now. I was on the nuva ring to regulate it. Once I got off of that in September, i hadn't had a period for 2 months. I went to the Doc and he perscribed prometrium to regulate my period.

I took my first prometrium pill on December 2, 2008 and AF finally came on 12/08/08. AF left town on 12/18/2008 and DH and I have been BOONCHIN ever since! LOL...I have no idea of when I ovulate, so DH and I try to BOONCH every other day, (though it seems like its been everyday) until its time for AF to come back.


A couple of days ago, I felt a pain on the right side of my pelvis...I assume that could possibly mean I was ovulating. So...I got it on with DH that night...and the next night...and the next night! LOL You get it.

Then the other day, including today, I was spotting...the first day it was a light pinkish color and DH noticed it on him after we had "Intense fellowship". It went away for a few days and then it came back today and it is very dark. I have no idea if this is implantation bleeding or just my whacky cycle.

I will start back on the prometrium today which is supposed to bring AF back next week...I really hope that she will take a 9 month vacation.

I know this will happen on GOD's timing, so with each post...I will say I give him all of the GLORY in everything...Preggers or NOT.

I am so excited about this journal...I hope to look back at this and see how far I've come.

With an irregular cycle you might want to think about fertility charting. Here is the link, Fertility Charting Thread

Today i bought a CVS brand Ovulation kit. Two lines came up however the testing line came up very light compared to the default line. I guess that means I didnt have a strong surge.

I havent started the prometrium yet...I need to call my doctor because I am not sure if I should take it 17 days after the last day of my period or to take it 17 days from the first day of my last period. I am so confused.

In order for the ovulation stick to be pos the test line needs to be as dark or darker than the control.

Thanks! I read that after the fact! :-0

Well, AF came today. I still havent taken the prometrium yet. I am surprised that AF came on her own...I will consult with my doctor this week. I am so confused with this process. I pray that I can concieve naturally without any drugs...

My hubby is a little sad. Only because he knows I am sad. He thinks that its his fault because we havent BD in two days...But thats not the case...I just wish I knew when I ovulate. He wants to get checked out now...I guess I will have to get a SA for him sometime this month.

God You get the GLORY anyhow!

Today AF is exremely light...I would even say that it is only a spotting. I have no idea of what's going on. Yesterday when I "thought" AF came...it was just for a lack of a better word, a glob of blood. Now, im barely spotting. I can only see it when I wipe.
