Hi I am 25 and currently TTC baby number 1. Finding its taking over my life lol. I have been using the ovulation tests but haven't had a positive one yet. According to the online calendars I should be ovulating next week. Fingers crossed! How long have you been trying? X Smile

Its taking over mine too! But im loving it so far. Ill be using the tests this week, due to be ovulating next weekend so fingers crossed! I have apps too that im always on haha.
This is our first month properly trying with the ovulation tests etc, came off the pill in july but i knew i was getting an op in october so it was a case of if it happens it happens. Im really excited but dreading the wait after i ovulate!!

Hi! Been TTC baby number 2 for 2 years. Baby number one was a complete New Year's Day surprise! I'm currently 4 days late (which never happens) but keep having negative tests.

Oh no, well hopefully you get your bfp soon, if your late there is still a possibility, maybe try testing in a few days x

I was on the mini pill. Had first af in october and just finished another. I did an ovulation test this morning, knew it would be neg but i was so impatient lol. Even my hubby was impatient! I just want to be preg too. You spend all that time trying not to get pregnant but when you try its so difficult lol x

Exactly the same here I had mummy first in October but it was very heavy and prolonged. I have just had another but on day 12 and still slightly bleeding :( according to ovia I should be ovulating this week but just did an ovulation test and came back negative :( really hoping I can't get a positive one. I think I'll do another on Wednesday :) xx

Haha i thought you meant period lol. Oh fx you get a positive. I know im only on cd6 but i worry i wont get a positive. Never worried about it before. Think its because i didnt need to try for my lg. ahhhhh! Xx

I know it's so strange my mum used to always tell me if you don't use protection you will get pregnant! If only it was that easy lol. Ovia says I'm cd13 before looking online etc I thought you ovulated when on or period. It's crazy how much I've learnt about my body since TTC X

Hi I'm ttc#3 have a boy almost 9 and girl almost 3 and fell pregnant easy with both but since I got married last November we haven't really used any protection. Thought it might have happened last month as had a few symptoms but nothing

Kellz92 · 23/11/2015 22:12

With my first i came off the pill one month before our wedding and found out i was pregnant two weeks after the wedding while on our honeymoon, werent trying but my mum said it could take a while as they took 3 years to fall with me. This time ive been off since july and nothing lol. You really do learn a lot when trying!

Rach i hope youre not waiting too much longer for your bfp.

Fx for both of you Smilex

What is bfp lol not very good with all the short words. It is crazy cuz you get taught to use protection cuz you will get pregnant but there ain't really any teaching to those who find it hard to get pregnant tho

Big fat positive lol, im still learning haha thats one i remember! I know its a nightmare. Even though i have a lg trying to conceive is all new to us. Im getting slightly addicted to googling things and getting impatient and constantly wanting to do ovulation tests etc lol
