    I'm hopeful!
    Some of you know my husband and I have been trying for 6 months. Well I'm suppose to start today. Normally I spot the night before and then have a full blown period in the morning. But I have nothing yet! No, cramps, no spotting, nothing! I know, I'm being too hopefull, but nothing wrong with that, right? Anyway, I'll keep you posted! We shall see! :)

    Don't get discouraged. It took me 10 months to get pregnant with my second child. It will happen for you.

    I'm sending baby dust your way. :)

    It was the exact opposite for me.

    My first took 7 months, my second took 10. We decided we were done, then we had one
    Night of silly unbridled passion and wham, I was pregnant. Sadly we lost that one. :(

    Sometimes the things you plan for take longer. It's when you stop planning, or something else takes your mind of it, that it happens. Or so it seems. :)

    I only have one ovary and half a tube and I was able to make two babies.I never thought I would and of course my odds were cut in half.
    When I finally decided that I was not going to be a Mom,when I truly accepted it,guess what happened?
    Baby!
    If you need to discuss this further,you know where I am.
    I am 55 now so this was many years ago,but I still know a few things that I learned from fertility docs.
    It may be passee now but you never know.I may have some valuable advice.
    Relax and put this on the back burner for a while.Stress hormones are counter productive.
    There is always next month :)

    Thank you guys so much. Just having support helps a lot. We are actually moving (just to a different neighborhood) in dec, so hopfeully that will take my mind off things and maybe it will happen. I go for my yearly in march so until then we'll just keep doing what we do and see what happens! Thanks again so much and of course I'll keep you posted! :)
