TTC #1 hoping for BFP before xmas.

Hi I'm really sorry to hijack this thread as I'm already pregnant and actually due at xmas but I just wanted to say good luck as I remember ttc and joining posts like this, symptom checking and generally being completely obsessed for a while! Also had a chemical pregnancy back in Feb so remember the highs and lows of all this.

I hope you all get Bfp's very soon!

Hi, I'm ttc 1st baby. Hoping for BFP next week but if not hopefully by end of year. Fingers crossed and wishing everyone lots of luck

Can I join you all please?

I'm 31, TTC#1 and very much want to before Christmas! I'm on cycle 2, had a very late AF last cycle and the hope this created made me realise how much I want this!

Nice to see there's already been one success story! x

All sounds positive for you chickadee87... Let us know how you get on! :-)

So to add to my already large list of symptoms, I had loose bowels last night after a week of being constipated and this morning my nipples are sore. Trying hard not to symptom spot all the time but it's very difficult when I don't feel right in myself!

Hi, can I join you too? New to posting though have been lurking for a while!

I've been TTC since April, and a BFP by Christmas would be amazing (one by Oct would be even better, so that I don't have to come up with convoluted reasons for why I'm not drinking over Christmas!).

Good luck to all those testing soon - and congratulations BananaToast!

Good luck testing chickadee!

And many congratulations to BananaToast- here's to a smooth nine months for you x

Teenie, babybelle, strawberrycheese - I also stopped takng the pill in July (loestrin 30) and I've been in much the same position! Early pregnancy symptoms- I felt so unwell two weeks ago I went to my doctor, who told me it could possibly be early pregnancy but to wait 10 days to test! So it's firmly in my mind I 'could' be pregnant, but i know im probably not. My AF is due today, I've been having lightly pink discharge and one small spot of blood yesterday morning and nothing since- today is the day my doctor told me to test. I'll wait it out for today and see if it appears, and maybe test tomorrow. I've had BFN already but it would have been too early to tell, and my doctor told me not to so I did anyway ;-) I'd love to be pregnant by Christmas. Good luck to everyone!

My AF is due 25th August, is that when I should be testing? Or should I be waiting until the week after? x

has anyone tested on night and got bfn then tested in morning and got a faint bfp ?

Wow banana toast that's great news.
I have eleven days to wait but am so impatient it drives me mad!!!

Congratulations Bananatoast!

I was taking medication that had stopped my periods but have changed my medication and now my periods have come back so I don't know how regular my cycle will be but I am hopeful.

Wow!! Big congrats bananatoast! :-)

angelaham I was exactly the same - had one period that was "normal" (i.e. what it would have been on the pill and then several very long cycles with v light bleeding. But I've settled to 28 days now and have been trying to keep track of CM which seems to be following the right pattern now. Not sure at what stage we'll start with the OV monitoring. I'd rather keep it simple if poss for now.

Wow! Congrats BananaToast! Can you waft some of that super-fertility in our general direction

Am still a little bit (unreasonably) about the BFN this morning but it's our wedding anniversary so will celebrate/commiserate with a bucket glass of wine and some quality time with DH.

Cabbage i came off the pill end of December and i was on yasmin pill and think that last months cycle seemed like it was getting back to normal, up until then it was like a really light period and was early and late, hoping it now settles down and we get out BFP soon

I'll join in :) I stopped taking Loestrin last month and my AF has arrived exactly 28 days later. I hope it will continue to be regular. Not had much erm... opportunity to ttc properly as DH has been away with work. I would love to have a BFP by Christmas.

Congrats BananaToast!

Well I didn't last long - BFP this morning! Still in a state of total shock! Wishing all of you lots of luck.

Morning all - I'd love to join if that's ok.

I'm on TTC cycle 1, just had a BFN. Have spent 2ww symptom spotting and stressing like crazy despite swearing to myself and DH that I wouldn't Really don't want this to take over my life completely!

Came off the pill in January but periods didn't seem anything like normal till last month, hence this is the first month we've put any (ahem) effort into TTC. Not using any OPKs, BBTs etc yet - is anyone else?

Completely hear what you are all saying about pregnancy symptoms - I've had them ALL but literally every one of them can be explained by something else

Hi ladies, I'll join you too.

My stats: OneDay, 27, TCC no.1, MMC June 2014 (would have been due in January so really really REALLY hoping to be pregnant again by Christmas)

Currently on 12dpo of my first proper cycle since the MC and in the dreaded 2ww

I will join in too!
I have been off microgynon for a year but only starting TTC this month. Also had some pregnancy type symptoms when I came off the pill (sore boobs mainly) and it did take a few months for my body and cycle to reset itself.
Have also bought a clear blue advanced fertility monitor to help me figure out my most fertile days. I should be in my most fertile phase during the next couple of days. Am hoping for a BFP by Christmas.
Good luck to all xx

Hi. Can I join in as well? I came off the pill in May and I have just had my first 28 day cycle using Ovia app to record. So this is our #1 TTC. Would love to be BFP by xmas.

I know what you mean about "feeling pregnant" after coming off....I was convinced within a few weeks but nope just my body playing tricks on me!

Good luck ladies xx

Oh, can I join please?

We have been trying for our first baby since February.

I had an early mc in May and the due date was in January. So I REALLY would like to be at least pregnant by then :)

I'm 8dpo at the moment.

Good luck everyone!
