We did the "were getting married in a couple weeks,,,,if it happens it happens" method.....We found out it happened about 5 days before we left to get married. But I had also had a miscairriage about 5 weeks earlier. After that we realized how much we really did want a family. Before we wanted to wait a couple years.

After several years of not using birth control then one year of actively trying to get pregnant, we tested my hormone levels--non existent so we used Clomid --so I checked fertility treatments.

With Matthew we just decided to try and get pg and wouldn't a ya know it, it only took 1 month of trying. DH was kinda bummed thinking he would get more practicing in because for birthcontrol we use c**doms and he's not to fond of them. With Thomas it took us over 8months of trying to get pg because I was timing it all wrong even using temperature and charting. Silly me thought we had to stop bd'ing as soon as you O. Boy was I feeling foolish. Once we sorted that out I got pg right quick.

Well, I was on birth control and then several months before we decided to try I stopped taking them. We actually thought it would take more time to get pregnant, but we got lucky the first time. Yes, the first time! DH was very upset. emlaugh.gif He thought he would have several months of you know what all the time. rolling_smile.gif rolling_smile.gif

We tracked cervical mucus for Bailey-worked like a charm. Seems to be the easiest for the accuracy.

The peanut is more of an "oops."

A friend of mine who decided to stop trying gave me her Ovulation Kit and I used it. Got pg the month I used it. I had been charting temps the 2 months prior to that. I have an irregular cycle and I thought the OPK would help. It did!! rolling_smile.gif

I was 37 and DH was 51, and we were about to get married. He suggested we stop using BC and see what happens. We both thought that it would take a while for us, being older, and that it might not happen at all, so we might as well get started. We didn't try to time things---in fact, we both were sort of avoiding the time that we thought I was ovulating. Nevertheless, we stopped using BC in December and we conceived in February! Now I realize how blessed we are to have conceived easily and carried a healthy baby to term, at our age.

Pretty much know when I'm ovulating, so we just had unprotected sex at that time, and were able to conceive within a month for all 3 kids.

Well Jade was an oops. I love her dearly, but that is what she was. I had just had another miscarriage so we had decided to wait until after we left Hawaii. Well I lost the baby on the 27th of Nov. 2001 and conceived between Dec 11-13th 2001. We are very careful now with birth control because we seem to be very fertile. rolling_smile.gif

I used to take bc pills, but after our wedding we decided that if something happened then it happened. Well, AF was always very irregular so there was no way to time anything. Right before Zack was conceived, I had AF for about 3 weeks straight. I went to the gyn and he thought it might be polyps or cysts, so he wanted to do a laproscopy and d&c. We went and had that done and then he said that we might consider Clomid(Fertility pills), so we agreed, but he said to take a pg test first just in case. Come to find out that I was already pg and there was no need for fertility pills. So sometime between the d&c and the test we conceived, but we have no idea when.
