Newbies TTC #1 gather round :)

Welcome ladies :)

I wasn't on the pill or coil before ttc, so can't help with your questions, but hopefully some of the other ladies on this thread can.

Only 8 weeks to go for me now, but keep coming back to check on this thread to see how people are getting on.

Good luck!

Can I join please? I'm brand new and pretty clueless. I've been off cerazette for 11 days now. Absolutely no sign of any hormonal changes. I thought I have some ovary pain about 8 days after stopping that lasted about 2 hours but nothing since and no sign of a withdrawal bleed either.

We are 'taking it easy' at the moment so no OPKs, temping or charting. Just regular DTD and hoping for the best. Must admit though, I'd quite like to know what's happening in there.

Hi everyone
Newbie here, help & advice welcome & much needed! Copper coil removed 1st oct also was first day of AF too. ttc #2 but due on Af today just usual symptoms but it's not arrived yet and had several sensitive BFN :( anyone had similar ? Xx

Thanks patience . Fingers crossed u get some bfp news soon. Just over 5 weeks so veeeerrry early days but taking each day as it comes!!

Congratulations happy!!

Went to sainsburys bought wine, chocolate;, steak and a pack of 2 home preg tests... af is due on Sunday/Monday so I am 11 dpo and I only went and got a BFP didn't I! It is faint and it is very early days. It was just an own brand one so going to get a clear blue digital one tomorrow me thinks. I am in total shock. ... and my boyfriend gets the wine! I have been spotting so not getting excited yet. Also have mild cramps. He told me he had super sperm but this is fricking ridiculous!

Good luck happygojo. If you can hang on, I can recommend the cheapie test strips. A few months ago when I needed them they were selling 3 for 89p in Home Bargains :)

Hi frolic I think I might get one of those 'early' tests and try tomorrow. I dunno how I feel really. I do really want this at my core, it isn't rational it is like my gut instinct but I was on the phone to my friend last night who is suffering with PND and hasn't bonded with her baby even after 3 months so right now I feel I am as scared of a BFP as I am of a BFN. I am suspecting it's going to be the latter. But I will still spend money on a test... like I said. .. It isn't rational!

When are you going to test happy ? Not long I guess? Fx for you.

I'm currently still waiting for any sign of ovulation to happen - I started tracking my temp before I even got my coil removed in mid-July and I had a higher temp then until AF came along, so I'm pretty sure that will be an indicator for me but so far, nothing! I'm on CD 20 now, but I have no idea what length my cycle is (and to be fair, that AF could have been a simple post-coil-removal one, though it lasted a good few days) and I'm getting really impatient just to ovulate, let alone get a BFP!

I guess I'll need to learn patience, but its not easy :( Good luck to all!

Fantasy symptom spotting alert!
Ok I am 10 dpo AF due sun/mon. This morning I felt nauseated when I got up. You know when you are not sure if you want to throw up or eat but passed within an hour. I HAD to have pickled onion monster munch when I saw them at the sandwich van this morning. Very tired. Slight cramps a bit away with the fairies and I just had some pinky Brown very light discharge.

No thirst, no boob soreness, not thirsty

Is it worth getting an expensive hpt or am I just mental?

Hi....Can I jump in on this thread too? i'm new to mums net and still getting the hang of things.

Hubby and I are thinking about trying for our first, so i'm planning to come of the pill at the end of my current packet.

Have any of you started trying straight after your last pill? xx

Welcome greysar I have my fingers crossed for you too please let us know how you get on. I am 8 dpo and just going a bit mental. Any other symptoms?

Hello ladies! Can I join?

I'm 28, TTC#1 after a MMC in February. We've been trying again since May, but because I have long, irregular cycles I'm only on cycle 2... However, today is 9dpo and had some spotting, so I have very very tightly crossed fingers for implantation bleeding!

Looking forward to everyone getting their BFPs

Good luck with the symptom spotting happy. The hangover was't too bad thank goodness. Not being obsessed is hard! I've gone from just seeing how it goes to thinking about opk's to watching clear blue fertility monitors on e-bay since Friday!!!

frolic not being obsessed is really hard! I am currently looking for none existent 'symptoms' hope your hangover eased!

Good morning! I decided after the coil removal yesterday that last night would be my last big night put for a while. So I'm feeling a bit rough this morning.
Just had a real twinge in what felt like my left ovary. Could be a pain from the coil coming out but could potentially be ovulation. I'm on day 19 of my 33 day cycle. I wasn't planning on doing any opk's for a few months but I'm already reconsidering. Not being obsessed is going to be hard!!

Hi everyone ! I'm completely new - just started taking folic acid yesterday ! So glad I came across this!! Excited to start on this journey but really worried/scared that things might not work out! I'm hoping to wait a few weeks before TTC so I can start tracking my cycle! The ovulation guide seems a bit confusing to me right now ! Any advice would be appreciated !!!

That's fantastic news LadesC, so pleased for you :) Hopefully all will go smoothly for you x

Good luck frolicacid!

Can I join? 34 years young, ttc #1. Copper coil removed today!!

Fab to hear bakingmad......can hardly believe it but af 2 days late and have a very faint line on preg test today!! Am a little more apprehensive about it all after last time but fingers crossed. Glad to hear youre gettin on well.....good luck everyone else x

Hi everyone. I am on my first 2ww AF due on the 10 August. Not overly optimistic this month but we have to start somewhere and all the info has been so overwhelming.

Hello everyone, welcome to the new ladies :)

Haven't checked this thread in a little while. Thanks for asking how I'm doing LadesC. All's well here thanks. 18 weeks now and fairly symptom free at the mo, though I have a little bump. Hopefully you'll get your bfp very soon.

Good luck everyone :)
