archie hopingfortejas replied. I am a pretty regular member on this board and most f you will be knowing me already ..

i notice that many people who message on this board have regular cycle, ovulating properly and have no problem but just stress yourselves too much ...

plz dont take my words the wrong way , what i am trying to say is that this happens to everybody ... not everyone conceives in the first 2-3 attempts ..
so dont stress yourself ....

The reason why i am saying this i fell that there is no reason why you should worry so much , and lose hope so soon ..

take my case, i have had a history of irregular periods from day 1, i have been trying for the past almost two years, and most of the cycles i dont even ovulate.. my hormone levels are mostly messed up, i end up with a cyst in my ovary every alternate month ...

plz note, i am not mentioning all this to crib to you people, but i am just trying to say that even with all these problems when i hope and dream of having a baby one of these days ...
why not you girls who dont have any such complex problems ??

Again,plz dont take offence and think abt this with a cool head , i know it will be disappointing when you get your periods whether it si your first cycle of try or 100 th .. but i just dont see the need to stress yourself ... thinking abt pills , think abt doctor ..etc...

chill and your day will soon come :)

Don't be depresed. It is only 7 months since u r ttc. I dont know much about BBT charting as I dont do it. All of us at the most can do is to try. It will happen. U seem to be very stressed out about this. Even I used to feel bad when I get my periods, its 5 months since i am ttc.

Be relaxed and it will happen.Also 7 months is not a big time. This info below may be useful:
If you are less than 25 years then you may see a Dr.
If you are over 25 then give a year before seeing a Dr.
Otherwise, try to avoid intercourse before CD10 and intercourse only between CD10 to CD15 once a 24 hours.

Good luck, will include u in my prayers. IB replied. hii strawberry pink,

as u say we are all sailng in the same boat. well dip in temperature today indicates that u might have got ur periods today or will get it any time soon. ur bbt chart indicates that u might have ovulated on either the 16th or 17th cause ur temp has been rising after that. an increase in temp does shows that u have ovulated. and yes u should time ur intercourse around the time u see a dip in temp.

i am just like u every month when i get my periods i get really dissappointed and usually dont feel like talking to anybody. but u should remember that with each passing day we are just that much closer to our dream coming true. haing in there sweetie....today is better than yesterday and tomorrow will be better than today. be cheerful and u will soon see ur dream being relaized.... good luck
