Welcome to the TTC Dreams Blog. My hope with this blog is to offer you information, hints and tips about getting pregnant, dealing with infertility, and making sense of all of the information available online.

I will do my best to cover not only conventional western medicine, but also home, herbal, and other alternative remedies that have worked for others. I will also let you know which remedies are not safe to try and could actually cause more harm than good to you and your fertility.

Please stay a while, drink some water or green tea, and browse around at what I have to offer you.

Anniversary Party in the Support Group

Today is the last day of the big Anniversary Party for the Trying_To_Conceive support group.

It's so hard to believe that it's been nine years! Nine years and hundreds of "grads" from the group. There are times when I wonder if the group really will be around "forever". I can almost imagine daughters of previous members joining in the future to get the same support and information that their mothers found.

I am already starting to think about next year's anniversary party. Next year it will be 10 years, and I think a great big party is really in order. Probably will start looking for prizes now, maybe have a big box to put into the closet that I can fill with goodies?

Who knows, maybe by next year I can find a voice chat program that will work for everyone in the group!

New Look

This blog just received a quick face lift. I am hoping that this new set up is easier to read, and still entertaining for everyone.

I love to read your comments, and remember, anyone can leave me a comment!

Free Voice Chat?

I have been looking for a free voice chat program or service, and thought I finally found something that would work for both the support group Trying_To_Conceive and for the website TTC Dreams with PalTalk. But when I tried to log in today, nothing but trouble! I did finally get logged in, and even managed to open the group chat room I created, but it still had it listed as closed!

I guess that the search will continue. I would love to be able to offer regular chat sessions with voice, but I don't know if I will be able to do so any time in the near future.

If anyone knows of a good, free, voice enabled group chat program or service, please leave a comment for me.

According to statistics, 50% of couples will conceive within the first six cycles of trying, and about 85% of couples will conceive within the first 12 cycles of trying.
