1st month TTC

Fingers crossed Regina

I wont say anything , its really annoying me now though so i hope it is gone by wednesday tbh!

I havent actually even told my DH yet! - hes been moithering ever since we got married a few months ago for me to take it out so his christmas present this year is going to either be a coil in a box or a pregnancy test if by some miricle i do end up conceiveing that quickly! Cant wait to see his face on christmas day whichever present he ends up with! plus it makes christmas shopping a whole lot easier this year!
We wont tell anyone i dont think as once people know they will just keep asking every month for an update which will get slightly frustrating if we take longer than expected to get our BFP.

I hope I am lol!! Would make things easier!!

Yeah it shouldn't, just don't say anything! I have a copper coil, not mirena, so have periods as normal. I've told my mum, but apart from that it's just me and DP :) you?

i hope it doesnt, i might just not say anything as the doctor will never know will she? How do you know when ur due to ovulate with the coil in, do you still get periods with it?

Hope u have a good weekend with the parents, does anyone else bar ur OH know youre having the coil out or have u kept it quiet?

Mines Tuesday! I don't see why it would stop them doing it, I'm told its a really easy thing to do and I can't see how a bladder infection would effect it... Hope not for you anyway! I don't ovulate again til the week before Christmas, AF due on the 2nd Jan I think... That would be a great way to start the year but I'm not getting my hopes up ;) hope everything goes awesomely and you get your Xmas BFP :) you never know!

I'm a weirdo who enjoys Xmas shopping... So look forward to it

We're spending the weekend with our respective parents which should be nice as we don't see them overly often. And means cuddles from DP's nephew on Sunday cutest 2.5 year old ever.

what day next week is yours coming out Jess?
I think i have a bladder infection - never had one before - and now worried this will mean they wont take my coil out, do you think? Il be so devestated if they wont do it until its gone as it will totally ruin any tiny chance of a BFP by xmas.

On the plus side my cheapo pregnancy tests arrived from amazon yesterday! So i now have a stock of 20 to look forward to using...

Has anyone got anything exciting planend for the weekend? I think il be xmas shopping tomorrow...unsure wether to look forward to this or not!

I'm with MrsW - I want it to be next week so I can have my coil out and join in!

Another person I know just announced she's pregnant :( I'm so happy for her but it's already very very frustrating! Ack.

Littlebear if I were you I probably would, just in case or I wouldn't be able to stop thinking about it IYSWIM...

KitKat that sucks, but give it time, it'll happen :)

Hey all. Have also been obsessively symptom spotting. Took my last pill on the 3rd of November and have felt crampy and bloated all week. Then on Weds at work had a small amount of fresh blood when I went to the loo (like 2-3 drops) and then nothing else since, so convinced myself it was an implantation bleed, even though it would only be possible to be that if I had ovulated straight after finishing my post-pill bleed. Nevertheless managed to get myself very over-excited. Took a test this morning - very clear BFN. Guess it's just my body adjusting to coming off the pill and playing cruel tricks on me by spotting and making me feel bloated and crampy.

woke up this morning with strong ovulation cramps, we're off for a weekend away tonight without ds so guess we'll be pretty busy this evening ;) its so exciting! I'm trying very hard not to get my hopes up as it seems to take along time for some people, I just know i'll be symptom spotting obsessively!

Hey Regina, any chance you could be pregnant?

ha i love it Queen, so frustrating this wait to have coil out. wish it was wednesday already :-( i feel left out....

Dh had a very long day at work so I didn't try and seduce him, he found the energy from somewhere to dtd without me reminding him it's ovulation time ?? (as sexy as that always sounds)

I'm going to join in!! TTC #1 I'm 27, OH is 33. Came off my pill 4 weeks ago, after nearly 10 years. Was hoping AF would turn up this week but seems I just ovulated at the weekend so might be another 2 weeks or so, right when my OH is due home (he works away!)

Last week I was feeling really light headed, pains in my stomach and back. Nipples have been tender (TMI) too lol! Not my actual boobs just the nipples!

Like everyone else I hope it doesn't take too long as others have said!

Good luck everyone!!

Yes queen you need to persuade him! I'm sure you can work your magic :)

MrsW I never even considered testing alone. But I get what you mean by capturing that look on his face. That would be amazing! I guess it's different for us all but I think we'll be testing together once we get to that point. Although...I haven't actually discussed that with him!

For the first time in our relationship my dh has just said he is too tired to dtd tonight. Now I know how frustrating that sentence can make you! I'm in the middle of ovulating too, going to have to do some seducing I'm thinking ;)

Yea thats a good idea..agree say he has to pay for them! Ha. He may then change his mind pretty quick. Maybe just buy some for u to use if u get too impatient one month and save the expensive ones for when u do them together? I think i want to find out myself first so i get the excitement of telling my dh and seeing the excitement on his face. Cannot wait for that moment.

That is really cheap Mrs W! Just had a chat with DH and he thinks that we should buy the expensive ones. He is concerned about a false positive and doesn't see it as money down the drain but I'm sure the likelihood of a false positive is next to none and I would feel like I was peeing on five pound notes! Maybe I'll say we'll have the expensive ones if he's willing to pay?! The thought of a clearblue digi is so exciting... Can't wait until it's my turn. :)

i just ordered a pack of 20 strip pregnancy tests on amazon for £2.63. Total bargain and will mean i wont be so worried about wasting them if i use one too early - once i do get my BFP though i will be running out to get a clear blue one just to confirm! cant wait to use one of those!

I'm disappointed but trying to focus on the positives. The pill I had been on had stopped AF altogether. I hadn't had one for years! At least I know I'm having good cycles now and there's no obvious issues. And as you say this year could be the best Xmas ever!

Oh amy. :( what an amazing Christmas present though! Just think the sooner it's over the quicker you can get on and dtd :) xx

AF arrived :( now I'm just looking forward to a Christmas Day BFP. Fingers crossed!

Yep i'll probably just buy some in bulk from ebay too! Can't be doing with the expensive clear blue ones!

That's true. They are expensive aren't they? I've seen ladies getting BFP's using the really cheap Amazon ones though. So I'm tempted to go with those as we are only just starting out.
