Most of us would think, "well, how hard can it really be?"
I found out that when you are actually planning it, you gotta TCOYF what that means is that now I have to take my temperature, chart my cycles, take OPK's, etc ,etc in order to recognize all the sings and time everything to perfection so that I can finally get that BFP!
When I started my research on the internet I was as confused as you probably are unless you are too TTC and are familiar with the million acronyms there is on the subject.... well since I will probably be using them as well as we move along in this journey I picture I'd give you a list of the most common acronyms...
