sometimes wonder if i did ditch the temping ; opks ,pre seed etc...if my chances will be the same ?
i mean do we really make ourselves have more "chances " pushing for conception ?

because it hasn't working for me so far!

do we have more chance then other doing so ?

a lot of people say if you stop worrying about it it'll happen when you least expect it.
could be worth a try!

It's worth a shot miel - I do think that if you don't worry about it and stress yourself out it will happen......

I had 12months of just relying on the middle of my cycle (29 days), and nothing, de nada.

Then I found BnB!!

Hoping that the temping and advice from you guys is going to make the difference!!!

But as they say, when you're not looking for it, it'll come! And how many stories do you read of women who are going through all kinds of tests etc only to catch naturally

It's be interesting to know...could have saved a fortune!!!

Best of luck Honey!!

Its such a frustrating process.
I wanted to beon maternity leave for when my daughter started school. She starts in 6 weeks and I'm not even pg yet let alone ready for maternity.

What a fool I was thinking it was all that simple.
Just got my first ovulation tests to see if they help this month.

So Miel, I am now entering the world of fads, products, old wives tales and such.
So if you have any advice on products let me know. I take pregnacare and thats all at the moment.

but i wonder if more woman fall pregnant when charting , opk etc or more woman fall pregnant just because ?

sairmare

That didnt really help much did it. Oops sorry!

Well you know that both times now for Wobbles it was when she wasnt trying.... Who knows But if it can happen for Wobbs, it can happen for anyof us trying

Also, I do think that the charting and using opks are good so you can learn alot about your body and cycles.... so I would at least do these for 3-4 months just to see how you work

I think its a case of knowing your body. If you are confident of when you Ov, then the old fashioned pot luck will probably work well for you. If you aren't sure when you Ov, then loading up on gadgets probably does help. On the flip side, it becomes easy to get obsessed with temps and timing which takes the romance out of TTC. I did read somewhere that with only a 1 in 4 chance each month of getting pregnant, those who actively try to get pregnant stand a better chance. The problem is you only ever hear the miracle stories of women who got pregnant as soon as they made the decision to TTC or those who got pregnant by accident, not the stories of the women who TTC for months on end before getting pregnant

Whatever you feel comfortable with is what will work for you!
