TTC June/July 2016

[Mammyashy1]

Hi thought I would start a thread just for people to let out all the crazy feelings during ttc

[BusyNothings]

I'm going crazy can I join?!

[Mammyashy1]

Of corse just us at the min more the merrier! I was going crazy but AF showed up today so back to cd1 x

[BusyNothings]

That's good that AF has turned up can focus on where you are up to now.

I'm still in no mans land. 8 weeks since implant removal. No AF and no ovulation so sick of it

[Mammyashy1]

Aww that's no good I've been on the implant before but started the pill strait after so not sure how long it should take. Has the doc given you any clue? Last cycle was my first ttc after coming off the pill luckily I've seemed to get into a routine quickly x

[summerskittles91]

Can i join please?

Was hoping for a BFP this month but AF started on yesterday, 2 days early :(
Had a early MC two months ago so no idea whats going on!

[BusyNothings]

Hi summers sorry to hear about your mc. It could be that your body just needs a few months to get back to normal. Try to be calm (as is possible) you will get there.

Docs not told me anything tbh. I had no periods for five years with two implants and now paranoid. I'm going to give it a few more weeks I think and then go and say hello wtf?!

[Mammyashy1]

Hi summers so sorry about your mc hopefully you will get you rainbow baby soon xx busy have you tried using opks? I use cheepies from Amazon so I can start testing early just coz you haven't had a bleed doesn't mean your not ovulating x

[summerskittles91]

Mammyashy1 how many days after AF do you start using opk's? I have a pack i got from amazon but then didn't use them and just went by what Ovia said.. but as AF was 2 days early this time I'm thinking i miscalculated my fertile days last month D:

thank you BusyNothings - I try so hard be calm but I'm POAS before i know it and panicking like crazy in the 2ww. agh! need to pull myself together.

[Mammyashy1]

I use the Amazon ones so I can start strait after AF coz last cycle was only my second off the pill I didn't want to miss early/late ovulation. I use ovia but I think it's a little unreliable with me just coming off bc it keeps updating itself from the data I enter. From what I've read it's normally about 3/4 cycles after coming off bc ovia is more reliable but you have to enter data x

[summerskittles91]

I'm going to give the amazon ones a go again.. I hope i haven't chucked them out. My period only ever lasts about 4 days, today is day 3 so its already slowed down..

[BusyNothings]

ive got a load of amazon ones got like 100 for pennies really good deal. ive been using them but i swear they are broken - either that or i havent ovulated either

[Lizziedoll]

Can I join? Also going crazy

Cycle 3

My period is due July 10 so I'll be testing in about a week

I'm 33
TTC #3

Recently decided to have a third, just waiting for AF to show up now. Was supposed to be today, keep hoping a swimmer got passed a condom but I POAS yesterday and nothing.

Bit worried about how pregnancy will be, had mild SPD with DS1, bit worse with DS2 and it didn't go away immediately afterwards. Core exercises have helped immensely but I still get twinges at certain times of the month. At least DC are now 7 and 5 so no lifting or pushing buggies.

[BusyNothings]

hi monkey and lizzie welcome to the crazy ones (aka me! lol) i am seriously avoiding google atm its driving me insane!

I have no idea what spd is monkey except what ive just googled, that sounds really difficult but im sure you will get looked after by your gp and midwife!

My boobs are so painful today i thought they had calmed down but i think they are getting worse. considering ordering some FRER tests but since i keep getting negative OPKs i dont know if im just setting myself up for dissapointment

[Mammyashy1]

Hi guys I think I'm the calm one atm but only because I'm in the middle of AF Lol I forgot how crappy this is I'm used to hardly having any symptoms due to the pill! Monkey hopefully it won't be too bad for you this time x

[Mammyashy1]

Busy if your getting neg opks and periods not showing up I think you should ring the doc and they could put your mind at rest rather than driving yourself crazy (it's bad enough when you know what your body's up to) plus all this stressing could be delaying it more x

[BusyNothings]

Thanks mammy I've calmed down a bit today I just had a down the rabbit hole moment I think. I'm very frustrated but I think it's a combination of confusion, knackered from work and selling house. I dunno going to give it a few more weeks and then go see doc. In fact I have a smear scan in a week so could be sneaky and ask them?

[Tweety12]

Can I join ttc for 7 months 6 days late but negitive tests 😔

[Mammyashy1]

Sounds like a plan busy! Hi tweety sorry about the bfn but hopefully a pod test is around the corner! Are your cycles normally regular? X

[Dannibear1990]

Can I please join, 3 weeks ago had a missed miscarriage and really struggling to cope all I want it to convieve again!! I had period start last night so I suppose onwards and upwards to next ovulation 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[summerskittles91]

Hope everyone is ok! Good to have a support network to help each other keep positive.

Last day of AF yesterday so hopefully in the fertile time soon.. Do any of you guys use any tracking apps, i have Ovia and Glow but wondering if there is anything better/easier?

x

[Mammyashy1]

Welcome danni!!! I just use ovia it's been spot on predicting when my periods due it's still trying to pin point my fertile window x

Had a 42 day cycle last month but it was my first month off the pill so I'm hoping now I've had a natural AF it'll be shorter this month!! Fingers crossed!!! Not sure when I will ovulate so gonna start doing OV tests from now just in case it's early! Don't want to miss it! Wishing you all lots of luck on this crazy TTC journey! Hoping for lots of BFPs soon!
