Hello,
I just wondered if anyone else on here is trying to concieve? We have been trying for our 2nd for 4 months now with no joy (first time round i got pregnant straight away!) so decided to lose my few extra pounds and improve my diet in hope it will help with baby making! Is there anyone else in a simular boat who would like to be buddies? I also plan to stay on calorie controlled diet when pregnant so i dont put on too much weight in pregnancy (if it ever happens!)

    I am TTC got a 3.5yr old boy. Started trying to conceive at the beginning of the year. Unfortunately in April I went for a 12 week scan and found out i was only 5 weeks so had a silent MC. 5 months later i had another MC so we have decided to lose some weight I have only lost 5 pounds but have got fitter and also christmas has taken its toll . So have started to take preconceive tablets (first one today) hopefully help me keep him in this time. Good Luck :)

    We are seeing a specialist because we aren't having any luck TTC. Meanwhile, I'm getting my tail back in shape. It certainly won't hurt anything and will be good all around!

    I have 3 kids ages 11,5,and 1. I'm hoping to have a 4th but am having issues (again) with my cycle. I had my daughter 7/7/2015 and have not had not one period scince. I've taken provera for last couple of months and that's not working. Blood work is showing high prolactin so that's what is being checked on now, in the mean time I truely need to lose weight as well (100+ lbs)so I'm trying to focus on myself and prepare for when the time finally does come again I ll be in better shape. (Sucks being morbid obese and pregnant...) good luck to everyone. Anyone can add me..
