I'm sure it's been done before, but I'm a newbie and trying to keep everyone straight and know who is where in the whole process of things!
So if you'd like, why not post here with your personals for all us newbies to keep track!!
I'll start.....
Me: 31, American married and living in London for 11 years DH: 33, Scottish (we met on the Internet in 94!) 1 cat whom we treat like a child (we've had him for 6 months) No kids
I'm TTC although DH still slightly unsure! Came off Pill in Jan after being on it for 12 years. Had my first proper AF on 17th (CD 45 or something like that!) so am on CD 7. Still waiting to see if my cycles get back to normal.
Part of me is trying to be relaxed and just take things as they come (let nature take its course) and the other is obsessed and reading loads of stuff on the Internet and buying OPKs and Preseed, etc! [:I]
Looking forward to getting to know you all better!

Wendy 35 DH 33 We also met via the internet in 2003 lol A dating website to be exact! Currrently living in Kent/S.E London No Children Currently TTC for 12 months now. I have under Active Thyroid ( On Thyroxine) and PCOS ( On Metformin) plus also trying to lose weight. 29lbs off at least another 28 to go lol 3 M/C ( 6wks and 9wks in a previous relationship) and most recent with DH (5wks June 2005).
Have been through a multitude of emotions whilst TTC. Currently awaiting next NHS Fertility Appointment in July whereby hopefully I will be precribed Clomid if not already PG by then.
Latley I tend to read the boards and not post as often, it depends how I am feeling... [] But you can be sure I pop in most weeks. [:X][:X][:X][:X][:X][:X][:X][:X][:X][:X][:X][:X][:X][:X][:X][:X] Sparklekiss x
Me 37 DH 34 TTC since March 05 PCOS on Met soon to be a Clomid Gal from Jan 2008.

Sparkle, congrats on the weight loss! That's fantabulous! I want to lose another 2st before I get pregnant so that if I put on 2st I will only be the weight I am now rather than 2 st heavier than my current weight...if that makes sense??! However I spent most of my life around 18.5st and have been 7st lighter for just over a year so I can't complain. Losing 100lb? Easy. Trying to lose frickin 20-30lb? Impossible! Or so it seems!! [}]
Sorry to hear about your m/cs. You poor thing. That must be difficult for you. Good luck with your appt in July but I'm hoping you get a BFP before then.

I have been talking to you on the 2ww but just thought I would add my personal details on here for all the newbies.
By the way am stunned by your weightloss, thats such an achievement, congrats hun. You must be thrilled. And same to you Sparkle, great to see you are still loosing weight and keeping positive, hope your appoint goes well in July.
Me 30 DH 30 Both from Ireland Married 3 years in August. TCC for 15 months TCC number #1 Came off BCP in Dec 04 Never had a BFP
Have irregular periods and after much disappointment we finally went to talk to fertility experts last month. DH sperm is fine, I got checked for PCO, don't have it but am getting bloods done tomorrow to see if I have PCOS. Will go back when results are in and they will decide whether to put me on fertility drugs, not sure which ones yet. Like Sparkle it has been a rollar coaster ride of emotions over the last 15 months, i go through stages of being so positive i could light up a room and then the dark days decend and they are just awful. I have been sporadic on here the last few months but always lurk around and see which lucky lady has gotten her BFP. I am hoping it will be me soon, either that or I will go broke first[:0]

Congratulations Jeesley I hope baby number 2 appears soon [] I bet you can't wait. i can't even imagine what it will feel like to be pregnant. What were your first signs? I'm CD 23 I think and I've got sore boobs but nothing else. I'm probably just imagining things. Is it too early to have sore boobs anyway? Mandy[]

hi mandy my first signs were a really tender stomach like af was going to appear, and its never too early to have tender boobs [:I] mine were tender from about a week after i found out i was pregnant, but incredibly they calmed down alot, i also felt off balance alot too. how long have you been TTC? we were TTC for about 18 months before i fell pregnant with this one.[] here's hoping for lots of baby dust to you all [] Jess xxxx

Now you say it I've been feeling off balance a bit as well but tummy just normal as far as I can tell. Anyway fingers crossed I'll test at weekend then let you all know [] ****,,,,****`****,,mandy****,,,,****`****,,

Hi everyone! I gave in to temptation and did a test today! i know that at CD24 it was too early and I knew it would be negative but was still gutted![] Am I the only one dumb enough to test this early[:I] I hate waiting but now I feel crap! Anyway I'll test again at weekend on CD 28 if AF doesn't raise it's ugly head! Mandy[]
Posts: 1152 | Location: UNITED KINGDOM | Registered: 27 March 2006
No, you're not dumb at all Mandy. I've been known to test before when there's been hardly any chance in hell of a bfp!
I did another opk today and it was a bfn (just very faint line) so still no sign of O yet. I wish it would hurry up and get here so I can get on with it. DH and I have been getting loads of practice but I'm ready for the main event!! []

Charley...married for 10 years this July I am 34, dh is 44, we have 3 girls 17, 13, 11.
We are trying for #4 for less than a month now, as just had the Mirena coil removed after having it in for 2 years. .....trouble free I might add!
Yes there will be a big age gap..but there are reasons for this (long story) but putting thing it off...hoping for an "accident" but it never happened...so I have declare myself mad say openly that I want another! Plus the "tick-tock" got me!!
I have fell within 2 months with all mine, so hoping my age and coil havent messed things up for me!
I frequent the 2WW thread ..for now []
We have 2 Dobermans....aged 7 and 4....that should really have been babies I had..but never got round to it!
Puppies only hit the spot for so long....then you want the real thing again![]
