Yeah, I do. I think it is from progesterone, so it is a good sign you are ovulating at least

that is good to hear....but i am not getting pregnant. i have intercourse sometimes 3-4 times a week.....sometimes the day before i ovulate.
i am so discouraged.

hopefully sometime next year it will happen.

It is very discouraging, I know ((((((((HUG)))))))))))). I went for years trying before having my darling daughter, but it did eventually happen. Have you had the whole fertility workup + SA done??

Even though I have had one child (and one m/c) I still wonder if I'm ever going to get pregnant again. It feels like there is such a small chance of getting pregnant how could it possibly ever happen again?

And then there are the people that fall at the drop of a hat. How? Why??

I hope it will happen for you soon.

YES IT MAKES me sick to see women out there that are clearly not taking care of their bodies, eating a horrible diet that have 3 or 4 little ones running around. it kills me.
hopefully it will happen for me.
i have not had a full workup done yet. we are not actively trying, but we are not NOT trying either. i was just kinda trying casually, so we dont get all stressed out about it.
but next year we might need to start the active part.
we shall see.

Well, from someone who's been through the entire medical ringer, go and get it all done now, so that you don't have to get sooooooooooo worked up if three years down the track nothing has happened. Please do. Though having said that I do feel we learn from all of our own experiences in our own ways and if we didn't go through them then we wouldn't be the people that we are today, so just go with what your heart tells you to do. I know that may sound a bit silly, but in hindsight I wouldn't change all of the pain and heartache that I went through with years of infertility (and am still going through - what am I talking about) for anything. My DH and I wouldn't have the relationship we have today if we hadn't become so close through shared heartache.

Oh and what makes me sicker is the people who just popped out a heap of kids with no thought and then fed THEM with cr*p and ignore their precious little bodies!!

yes it is incredibly frustrating.
let me just mention one thing: i am sitting here in my bedroom in front of the window, and outside there is this beautiful tree with tons of yellow leaves on it, and thousands of yellow leaves laying on the ground all around it. it the most beautiful thing to look at so early in the AM.
i love nature! i feel lucky everyday that i have all my limbs and i can walk, talk, hear, see, smell, run. i try to be thankful for what i DO have.
what i dont like is that for the rest of my life i will always have to worry about facial hair, acne, and my diabetes. it saddens me.
for some reason i was chosen to have these problems. i wonder why. i am a thin cyster, so thank god i dont have to worry about my weight.
hopefully someday i will have a baby. i want to be a mother so badly. i want to create a being with the man i love. i desire it more than anything in the world.
i will keep praying and taking care of myself. i will continue the herbs.
i might start taking dong quai with the vitex. and maybe some red clover.
i want to try Ovulex but it is very pricey.
i am going to work now, have a good day! email me anytime: amosk72@aol.com
