hellooooooooo.....

I am on cd1 , cycle 4.
AF to me now means.....new begginings, another chance, a fun 2week wait til O.

A lil bit about me.....

me- Tammy
fiance- Kris

We've been living in a small town in Northern Ontario for 3 years now. Trying to start up a self sufficient 'homestead'. So far it includes some animals ( chickens and pets) with goats, maybe pigs, and in future Alpacas....... veggie gardens, rain barrels with a planned grey water system to be built, home based employment. And solar power cause I hate paying for hydro!!!!!
AND a few kids to help with chores...hahahahaha

speaking of kids........

Been trying for 4 months.....I am a late starter as I have only just met my Mr.Right. (me-36 he-33) yay me!!!!! hehe
We knew that having a family was very important to both of us BUT house and starting our life together were our main focus inn the first 2.5 yrs being together. We had a 'surprise' pregnancy last october that ended in MC at approx 8 weeks. No 2ww there......just alot of spotting and what I thought was a stressed AF. Anyway.......
Right after that Kris surprised me with an engagement ring ( was never needed as I am not the type of girl thats needs a diamond).
So we are now planning a small wedding BUT baby comes first..haha

back to baby......
I am optomistic about baby makin...BUT have a few issues...OH may have a low sperm count due to low testosterone, and my eggs might just be a little on the old side.......
So I am going to try some preseed due to lack of EWCM and OH is getting his SA soon!

this is a little long but thats my story......
feel free to post, chat,add questions...ect
I will chat about anything if i am online and bored..haha
Take care and lets see some more

Hey Tammy!!
I am s glad you have a journal on here now. Your house and home sound amazing!! How I wish I could live in the country with animals all around and work from home!

I have a question for you,... How did you know that your OH might have a low sperm count???? You said something about low testosterone and I am just wondering, How do you know if your man has low testosterone??? Is it evident by behaviour and that sort of thing, or more a medical thing you found out. Sorry for the thousand questions, just got me thinking is all. My DH is young, so I never thought he would have any problems in the "sperm" department, but I nev er really thought about testosterone playing a role. He is very,... um.... not jockish, if that makes sense, more of a sensetive type... Now I am thinking, does that mean he has low testosterone and so on and so on....

Again sorry for the million questions!!

Well I hope your stay here in TTC is short and you have a soon!!!

Take Care

So I finially found my journal...lol
I have computer A.D.D. and loose interest in things fast!!!!!
but not BnB.....

So I am on cd15....
Started bd'ing cd8,10 in the am, then cd11 in pm, skipped cd12 (i needed the break) iykwim
cd13 was a late night session....cd14 skip, today is cd 15 and will get one in asap.
I would have prefered an early morning but I was up at 4am sick!
Not sure if explosive Diar....oops....tmi.........
is a sign of ovulation..hahahaha
anyway.......I now have slight cramps. The ones you get about 5 days before AF
I had them last month on cd 15 as well... So am hoping they are ovulation cramps...also had slight stinging on left side for about a few mins this morning.
Hubby better get home quick!!!!
All this planning to catch the egg and I might have missed the chance.
I had white thick cm for cd 12 cd 13....now nothing.
Will have to check for ewcm today .....

I didn't order preseed and then forgot about robbitussin..

( so here is my reminder.......BUY preseed, ovulation sticks, preggo sticks off of ebay!!)

So nyone have any ideas for the 2ww so we don't lose ourselves in symptom spotting.
We totally need all the preggo ladies in 1st,2nd,and 3rd...to leave all their symptoms on a sticky somewhere..haha
that way i don't have to google anything.

So here's to a fast2 weeks before we get to pee and see

Hey Chilli,

Like most of the ladies..I think I may want to move to Ontario! Or if you could adopt me, that would be cool too. Love the sound of the life you're leading, something me n OH strive for, but there isn't that much spare land round Birmingham, England!!

Good luck with this month, you've certainly got the BD'ing planned!!


Hope to hear good news soon
