Hi Ladies-Its so good to hear everyone else's stories. We're ttc and am on cycle 1 too-I've been off the pill for over three years though (have spent those years being very careful!) DH finally agreed this week and it just so happens that I was ovulating between thurs-sun-i think. We dtd 3 times over that time and AF due on 1st Sept so fingers crossed!

I'm the same - I'm a worrier and also a control freak so it's hard to not be able to control this. Just need to relax and enjoy, as hard as that is!

Mine was first month period so it can go normal straight away!
Because I want this so bad I am also worrying but no facts to worry, some women try for months leading into years! So brave

I think what I will find tough to accept is that we are doing everything we should be to fall pregnant and so it would make me wonder what we're doing wrong. Unless of course my period just doesn't return for ages, in which case I will just be worried and frustrated.

Haha you sound like me!! After month 3 il b going mad

OP posts:
VJONES1985 · 10/08/2013 10:38

I keep going from positive to negative... At the moment, I'm positive and convinced my cycle will return quickly and I'll be pg by xmas (my goal). But other days I'm convinced we're going to have major issues even though I have no basis for that :-( If I'm not pg by xmas I will be gutted because I'm a control freak and can't cope if things don't go to plan.

Beans1977 · 10/08/2013 10:33

Good luck ladies! This is my first month trying for number 2 and I'm due on 17th August so am waiting excitedly like you! x
