Lisa - After you first sign on to FF, look above at all the 'tabs' and click the 'community' tab. It will take you to another page and you want to click on the 'my friends' tab. I already requested that you add me, so you should get some kind of indicator that 'you have a request to add a...

Melanie - Good luck on your 10K, hope the weather cooperates for you! Lisa - I should test in about 8-9 days, so I have a ways to go. I did go to the RE for my 21 day progesterone test. It came out to be a 20! 3 = Egg released 10 = good egg released 20 = even better chances~! So, at...

Lisa - If you haven't been off of the pill for that long, I bet that might be part of the problem. I'd just keep going like you are for this first cycle and see what happens. Definitely don't obsess and enjoy this time. Hopefully, your temps will go up soon and you'll get some cross hairs on...

Lisa I'm having a hard time making heads or tails of your chart. You don't have cross hairs yet, so it looks like FF hasn't indicated ovulation for you yet. Your temps have to be high for at least 3 days for it to give you the horizontal and vertical cross hairs that will indicate your...

Hi all, Trying to eat clean this week too, but the ice cream shop in our little town opened last week. I got a small chocolate crunch shake with snickers and heath bar. I couldn't resist. I usually go on a long walk and then stop for the ice cream and walk home, but tonight I took the car...

You guys are making me hungry with all the talk of Chocolate! Lindt chocolate is the best in MHO. For dark chocolate fixes, the dove pieces really do the trick if you can just eat 1! Melanie - Way to go on the no MD! Woo hoo. Autumn - Sorry AF has found you... Well, DH and I are...

Hi all, I'm there with you and the chocolate! I ate my whole dark chocolate bunny from Easter! AHhHhh... Well, had my appointment with the RE today. He said that since we got prego on the first try last year and that we could even get prego, was a good sign that tube blockage may not be...

Lisa - I definitely like Cathe's workouts better as far as excitement, but I am gaining a lot strength from the P90X workouts. If I get bored, I throw one of Cathe's in there for the week. I can't wait to get back to Cathe's again though. I seem to just sweat more with her workouts. Makes me...

Hey Lisa, I'm in but I'm actually on my second phase of P90X this week. Anyone done this before? Sat - Chest, Shoulders, Triceps, Ab Ripper X Sun - Plyometrics Mon - Back & Biceps, Ab Ripper X Tues - Yoga X Wed - Legs & Back, Ab Ripper X Thur - Kenpo X Fri - Rest/Stretch and a Massage...

Hi Lisa, I've been temping on FF since December 2006. That site is really helpful. I suggest taking the charting course too if you can. I took a break this month, b/c it was getting too stressful. I found myself analyzing my temps every day and that 2 week wait after ovulation can be brutal. I...

Hi all, Just checking in to say HI! Morris - That storm sounded terrible. Hope it's getting back to normal. We actually have had very chilly winds and temps 20-30's here in Iowa. I was mowing the lawn the other day and then it started to snow. Never accumulated, but weird! I was...

Hi everyone, Thank you so much for the warm welcome and sharing your TTC stories with me. I know that it takes time and I think I'm just stressing myself out with all of the charting and monitors. Certainly isn't making for romance much. ;( I know that I need to be patient and let things...

Hi all, Just wanted to introduce myself again. I was on here last 04/06, but miscarried in 06/06 and have been MIA for a while. I'm 37 and DH is 37 as well. We've been TTC our first, for a year now with no such luck. I actually started charting in Dec 06, so I know I'm at least ovulating...

Hi all, I'm not pregnant yet, but am trying. Are crunches o.k. while pregnant? I've read some articles online saying not to lay the back and to have a position on all fours and pulling in. Anyone know what's o.k.? I've heard that continuing crunches are great for delivery, but what is the...

Thanks for your story Rebecca. I really appreciate everyone making this just a little easier to handle. My husband and I moved to Iowa a year ago and I don't have a lot of close friends yet. It's been tough going through this with my family not here, but this forum has made it much easier...

>Amhess...so sorry for your loss. I have no children yet, but I >feel for you. That is what they say though...if you miscarry >it is likely for the best...even though it doesn't feel that >way! Anyway, good luck in the future!;-) Thanks Janice, it means so much to hear from all of you...

I'm 36 and we're trying for our first. Went to Jamaica with a plan in mind and got pregnant on the first try (with a little help from fertility pee sticks). I just miscarried this week, but with all the encouragement from this group, I am very hopeful that I'll have a healthy pregnancy in the...

Thank you to everyone for sharing. I didn't realize how common it was either until talking to friends, family and all of you. I really appreciate your support and hope to be talking babies again soon. We're excited to start in Aug-Sept again and hope for the best. I believe that...

Heather, Thank you so much for sharing your story. I too am sorry for your loss, but happy for your new little one! It gives me hope. Thanks for the encouragement. I'm hoping the bleeding stops soon. The Dr said it may take a week and that I shouldn't need a D&C. I really don't want...

Hi all, I joined the site a couple of weeks ago quite excited with a due date in January. I just miscarried this last weekend. :( The last 4 days were really rough, but I'm getting through it day by day. I started spotting and cramping and was in for an ultrasound on Monday. I was supposed...
