icon16 Introducing myself

I am Kara and am officially introducing myself as we are gearing up to ttc #3. My DH and I have two daughters ages 5 and 3. Our first was conceived on the pill and pregnancy wasn't discovered until almost 7 weeks. Second pregnancy was 1 month of ttc, 50 mg Clomid d/t mild PCOS and using our fertility monitor. The dr actually thought our second baby was twins and checked me on two separate occasions for twins but nope just one We are going to try the techniques to go for a boy but either is fine. If the next is a girl then we'll try again sooner rather than later for a boy. The plan is to go off birth control in July and start trying in August. I've already been taking prenatals for several months as well as additional folic acid to prepare my body. I look forward to getting to know all of you. Feel free to ask me questions if you'd like.

Kara

Hi Kara and welcome to our corner of the internet!

I am Claire and about to start trying (next cycle yippee) for our fifth baby. I have three girls and a boy and live with my husband in Auckland New Zealand but I am a Brit.

Are you going to be doing the clomid again this time round?

Hi Kara, welcome to the board!

I'm Berlin, mom to 3 girls (5, 2, 4 months) and getting ready to start TTC #4 next month. We're going to do our best to try and conceive a boy, but we'll see. Another baby girl wouldn't hurt the family any!

I wish you all the best!

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone and yes we will be using 50 mg Clomid days 5-9 to assist in conceiving/ My doc told me if I'm not pregnant in 3-4 months to call her and she'll up the dose to 100 mg but has no reason to think 50 mg won't do the trick. Can't wait for August to get here but I'm focusing on losing some weight first so that will keep me busy. You all have really cute kids

Hello and welcome! I'm Kate. We will TTC #4 sometime in the next year, whenever I feel like my body is ready for it. Each month, it tells me, "not yet," but I'm getting closer. I got my wisdom teeth pulled, as that was a major stumbling block, and ever since that and the healing (last month), I've felt a lot more ready. I hope it's quick and easy for you this time around.
