Love it all - both hi and low! But I have to agree, it would be great to have(more) high intensity, low impact workouts...I think it would make my knees 'last longer' as age keeps increasing.... p.s. LOVED lowmax especially....

Hi! I think that there are a lot of factors that influence a woman's fertility; genetics too - some people could probably be in their 40's, do a triathalon (sp?), and still get pregnant easily. For others (including me), I needed to 'cut back' on the exercise to get pregnant. Our first...

OMG Melanie, I am so happy for you - what a blessing!!!(Actually TWO...!!!) Wow, are you going to be busy this Christmas!! Congratulations and talk to you soon!! Jeannine

Hi ladies! Well, the good news is that the amount of fluid in my uterus has diminished. the bad news is that there is still some, which greatly reduces my chance of conceiving this month (per doctor).... She mentioned that sometimes after ovulation, once progesterone prodn kicks in, extra...

Oh man, I'm praying for you!! Melanie, I'm praying... - I'm excited for you!!!...keep up the good thoughts!! talk to you soon! Jeannine

hi ladies! Hoping you could give some advice/input. The good news is my husbands semen analysis came back great. The bads new is my HSG exam on Monday was so/so.....Uterus looks good(no fibroids), ovaries look good, fallopian tubes aren't blocked... BUT - I have some fluid in my...

Melanie, I am so sorry for your loss; I just found out today about your miscarriage. Just wanted you to know that my thoughts and prayers are with you. There's nothing you did to 'cause' this - hang in there....God bless... Jeannine

Hi Lourdes! Do you use OPK tests, and chart your temps? (basal body temp charting)? It is a great indicator to see if you are ovulating or not. How long is your luteal phase(from ovul to period)... Although it does APPEAR that I am ovulating, a prescription for Clomid or Femara is...

Mel, thanks for your input!! I was 'leaning toward' the Clomid, but, I gotta admit, am afraid of some of the possible side-effects (like the moodiness, depression). Frankly, I'm kind of a 'depressive', so I'm concerned Clomid would 'put me over the edge'. Maybe not.... there isn't alot...

Hi ladies, I've posted on here a few times the last month or so, and I really appreciate any advice/opinions you have... I decided to go see an infertility specialist; In my 1st meeting, we discussed extensively my situation: 38 yrs old, 4 children conceived naturally BBT charts...

premixes? I agree - premixes - pretty please!!!

Reena and Becky, I have to second your opinion - this charting stuff is nerve-racking!! My OB insisted I do this for 3 cycles, to get a better determination if I'm REALLY ovulating... (OPK tests are always positive, have FM, but i guess he is 'covering all the bases'...?) I think the most...

thanks Melanie! Oh, Disneyworld is SO much fun....what was you and your family's favorites? We are hoping to save up and go again next year.... I'm clueless - what is a PM?.... I'll send you an email right now...thanks for your help! God bless,

Hi ladies! I've made a couple of posts the last few weeks. My husband and I(38 yrs old) are blessed to have 4 children; we love them so much and would love more.... We've tried unsuccessfully for 12 months...my OB has given me a couple of tests: thyroid test(fine), cycle day 3 ovarian...

She is absolutely beautiful - what an angel!! and, i have to say, God bless you(and hubby too) - to persevere for so long; you are an inspiration for all of us praying for a little one too.... congratulations !!!

Hi! I'm new to this, and have a couple of questions!! I usually wake up at different times throughout the week; anywhere between 5 and 6:30, (sometimes I make a fast potty break), drift in and out of light sleep or just rest until @ 6:30/6:45am; then i get out of bed and start my day;(i...

thank you all for responding! - I guess I'm looking for answers as to why I'm not conceiving ...its easy to worry that its something I'm doing (or not doing) thats causing the problem....

OK ladies who are ttc and those who have successfully conceived, please respond!! My new doctor recommended that I exercise only 30 min/day of 'moderate, not strenous' exercise since we are trying to conceive...(we've been trying for 1 year). I can't help but wonder, if longer exercise...

thank you so much for your response! I agree with you; I feel that our Lord has given me a great gift, a great capacity to love, and I'm struggling with why I'm not conceiving/ struggling with the 'unknown'(will I ever have another child?). I've had people look at me like I/we are nuts for...

thanks for your response! Yes, I am familiar with taking ch. of your fertility; its a great book! We practice natural family planning, so I'm up on charting, fertile mucus,plus using OPK'S(and getting '+'s)....I'm considering trying a low dose of Clomid; it appears that i am ovulating, but...
