Thanks, you guys! I think I had pretty much decided to start trying, I just needed the reinforcement here.
A little history - we have never NOT been trying. We got married in 2000 and both of us were 30. After a year, I started having tests and I took Clomid for 6 months. In two years, we think I maybe ovulated once or twice, but we could never find a medical reason why I was not ovulating, so the excuse was always my weight. Well now I'm still overweight, but I know PLENTY of people who have babies at my weight and much heavier! After those first two years of charting and counting and all that crap, we just stopped. Well, we didn't stop having sex, but we stopped doing it for the sole purpose of getting pregnant. I had to stop or I was going to lose my mind! Now, I am ready. I know that I am on CD 12. We did it on 9 and 10 and we'll do it again on 13, 14, and 15 at least. Of course, I need to try to figure out when I actually ovulate, but because I just came off the pill some friends think that CD 14 may be the date to shoot for then wait and see when I start AF.
I'm excited! Nervous, but excited! I REALLY want a little one!
