Trying for a baby

Decided to start this thread for all women trying for a baby. Whether that be recently or for several years.

I had my son after 8 months of trying and he's nearly 2 now, we recently decided to try for another one and I came of cerazette last month ( read a few horror stories on internet about it messing up peoples fertility but hopefully this wont be the case )

Feel free to share any stories, hints, tips, special diets etc.

    Cant hurt to have another one then lol. Nice new and fresh for any new users etc :) but will definately have a nosey at the others. This is just meant to be lighthearted as trying for a baby can often bring enough bloody stress!

    Maybe a BG could merge this with the existing Trying For A Baby Thread.

    Have contacted a BG to merge.
    Nice to keep the board tidy, without multiple threads for the same thing IMHO.

    Is that a dig? I have one child with my partner, He has 2 from his previous marrriage and 1 from another previous relationship So that makes 4. I have a son and probably if i had a girl next time round that would probably be me done although im still young and who knows we could end up with an entire football team :)
  • I agree, no need for another one. The TTC is really good, very friendly & lots of advice from people who have tried different things & been trying for a long time. By keeping it all together your more likely to get a good answer & quicker.

    Good luck baby making!

    Leos-Mummy - i came of Cerazette in January, and was pregnant 4 weeks later, so don't take too much notice of the 'horror stories' you've read. I also know of several other people who got pregnant straight away after coming of Cerazette!
