Am I KTFU?!

DH and I had semi-protected sex, and since then I'm been feeling funny. AF isn't due for 3 weeks, but do you think I'm pregnant?!

 

....I kid, I kid. Just wanted to introduce myself. I am a frequenter of the baby names board and DH and I started TTC this month. I've joined fertility friend and so far am just tracking AF and CM, but just bought a thermometer today and plan to start tracking BBT as well. DH thinks I am nuts, and keeps saying "let's just have sex a lot", but I find all the fertility stuff fascinating. I've learned so much just from lurking here and am looking forward to learning even more! I am still getting used to the acronyms, so I apologize in advance if I seem like a moron sometimes Smile 

One question: in all the 2ww threads there is a question about timing. Just curious what it means? It's probably really obvious but I can't figure it out!

Welcome & GL!

Timing refers to when you had sex around O, O-3 would mean 3 days before ovulation, etc.

lol. hi and welcome :) sounds like you've done some research and are ready to go! i am fairly certain the "timing" refers to when in the fertile window sex was had. does that make sense? (someone correct me if i'm a moron). anyway- good luck to you!

-dx: PCOS & hypothyroidism-
-Dec '12-SA: normal & HSG: all clear-

Must be the day for H's to be "over" the tracking thing in the first month...my husband doesn't understand why I need to pee on things and take my temp, he says "millions of women have gotten pregnant for millions of years without it"...I just smile.

Welcome and good luck! I like the spelling of your name, you don't see it like that often. It's almost identical to my best friend from high school, only it was an "e" instead of "y".
