I am trying. We started in January, with 2 miscarriages mixed in. I am testing on Friday and feel really good about this cycle. Everything 'feels' the same as the other two BFP cycles, but could also be my head playing tricks on me.
Me! This cycle. AF just ended and I think we are going for it, unless DH suddenly chickens out.
I had horrible m/s with DD. I am a little nervous that if I get a BFP right away, I'll have a miserable summer. (A summer in which DD will be home with me all day and in which we have lots of travel plans, BTW.) But, every pregnancy is different, and there's no guarantee things will happen right away. May as well just take the leap since we feel ready otherwise.
DH thinks his contract in France may be extended, which would mean I'd have to figure out how to give birth here. The reservation system for public and private hospitals seems complicated. But, I'll deal with it if I have to.

We are TTC#3. We've been trying since last August, and currently in the midst of our second cycle with the RE.
I'm just finishing two weeks of bravelle injections, and IUI will likely be Friday. Last month during our first cycle back with the RE, I had 3 follies and still got a BFN. This cycle I have only one, my estrogen levels are low, and my lining is thin, so I'm thinking it will also likely be a BFN. We'll see...
I typed this out last night, but apparently my Kindle Fire ate it.
We'll start trying for our first in August. Went off the pill in May, but we're "preventing" until the end of July in hopes that I won't be hugely pregnant during my work busy season. I think we might wing it for the first month. But then I'm guessing that I'll probably chart. Since I am hypothyroid, it will be to my benefit to know ASAP when I'm pregnant...and I'm kind of a control freak anyway.
I go back and forth each day with being excited and terrified about starting to try. We have my 6-year-old stepson half time, so it won't be a huge change for us but will still be less freedome than I have now! That being said, I kind of hope it happens for us quickly because there will already obviously be a big age gap between SS and our future children.

We are TTC #1! we are on cycle 1 in the 2ww but we had horrible timing so we will see. My cycles vary from 27 days to 36 days so I am using the CBFM to help with pin pointing ovulation.

We are TTCing #1 (and done)! I've been charting for about 5 months, and we TTC'd this cycle. For about a year now, I've been taking a prenatal vitamin, and just added 2 red raspberry leaf capsules a day, toward the beginning of the month. I am 4 DPO, and the chart looks promising, so here's hoping.
I do plan to go back to work after 3-4 months. I'm scared of finding a decent area daycare that's not astronomically expensive. And I'm scared that if/when I am PG, I'll have morning sickness.
We've been trying for several months. If everything goes well this will be my forst cycle on follistim and then IUI. I have my next RE appt Friday so we'll see where things stand.
I did 3 rounds of Clomid recently... and now the OB has kicked me over to the fertility center. My first appt with a "real" RE is on Friday morning!
I'm kind of "meh" right now, since DH will be out of a job come Sept. Hopefully he'll find something soon. We're still going to go through with the fertility treatments, though...
We are trying for #1! I stopped BCP last month (after 10 years on the pill) and have begun charting with FF and taking a prenatal vitamin. It's exciting, scary and overwhelming all at the same time.

We are on cycle 6 of ttc #1. We were referred to a RE in May but can't start monitoring/testing til August because of work trips.. hoping I get a bfp before then and avoid all the needles!

We're going to start TTC #2 next month. I've been charting for a few months and my cycles are pretty regular. I fluctuate between being excited and scared out of my wits. I'm not sure how I'll handle the fatigue and a 2 year old. Yikes.
We plan to start trying (or stop TTA) for #2 next month or maybe in August. DD is 26 months now, so this would put them about 3 yrs apart if we get lucky in the first few cycles.

We are getting ready to TTC #2. I got off BC a few weeks ago and charting now (but no sign I O'ed yet so we'll see how long it takes to get back to "normal").
