TTC #1 hoping for BFP before xmas.

Oh and I meant to add I've become a tad obsessive, I 'm sure my partner must think I'm mad. I have as good a range of pregnancy tests (different brands) as boots and have to stop myself. Using them mid-month!!!!

I also worry I am putting pressure on my partner asking for it on demand as it were instead of " going with the flow" as he puts it , point being, he already has 2 kids and although I know he'd live us to have a baby, ultimately if this doesn't happen, it will be much worse for me .

Anyone else feeling the same. X

Have you been to your GP yet creamhearts? Try not to until u know for sure x but im sure all will be well

Lets hope!
How long are your cycles normally beccaroo?

I hope it is just too early sabzh.

I am pretty sure I am not ovulating :( Trying not to panic.

Still very early sabzh! Keeping fingers crossed for you.

I am on cd31 (in theory 15dpo) and still no AF or BFP!! I think hubby thinks I am going nuts...

Jcandy thank you xx i should just listen to the dr and wait until next Sunday.

Sending hugs your way sabzh. So sorry, it's hard not to convince yourself that it will be positive.

I gave in and took a test................BFN! i'm hoping that Ive tested too early. Need hugs please :( feel silly now so annoyed at myself

Hi everyone, I had my coil out in July, had my period august and was devastated so would absolutely love to announce my pregnancy to my family on Christmas Day!!!! Or at my mums birthday meal in cot although that would be very early!!

My partner and I haven't told any family, only my best friend knows we are Ttc.

I'm 34 so I am really hoping that this happens for us. My partner already has 2 teenagers but we really want a baby.

Xxx

Im trying to fight the urge too! Im trying to convince myself im pg but know af will arrive and will be soooooo disappointed. Oh why do we do this to ourselves? !

If you can't stop yourself, get a load from pound land. They're supposed to be just as good and will save you a fortune!

I'm currently fighting the urge to go on a pee stick buying spree...I've had a uti for the past few days and feeling nauseous...I'm convincing myself it means I'm pg but really I know it's the uti. Got a bfn when at the GP on Wednesday but I'm thinking "that was two days ago"...
Actually writing this has helped me see how silly I am being!
How soon can I test? The GP said 3 weeks but I know that's nonsense right?!

Hi everyone, can I join in? I'm 31, ttc#1, and currently in cycle 2 (CD33) Last month was so hard when AF showed, I'd convinced myself I was pregnant on the first cycle trying and felt so gutted when she showed up! We're trying not to tell anyone either but it sort of slipped out in a conversation with my Mom! Have just started temping as well so I can be sure I ovulate and when! GL all - baby dust to everyone!!

Some people make it seem so easy to concieve its unfair :(

Hi all, I too would like a BFP before Christmas, am 31 and ttc#1. Have got fingers crossed for September BFP as things have happened at the right time this month according to fertility friend app! Not doing ovulation packs etc just recording AF and when we DTD. I was on microgynon for 9 years and then doctors changed me to rigivedon (apparently same as microgynon just cheaper...) until I stopped in January, have had AF every month so far on a fairly regular cycle so have had 7 cycles not really trying and this is first cycle of trying with bit more thought (well on my part anyway hehe) also not telling anyone trying etc

I know what you mean. I'm second guessing everything at the moment!

My SIL got pregnant while taking the pill, and to make it worse she doesn't even really want a baby (she went in to hiding and only told the family when 7 months preg!). Makes it all seem a bit unfair really!

Welcome baffers! I guess things can be a bit topsy turvy when you come off the pill but I'm sure you'll become regular soon.

My update is that I am cd30 now and still no AF - have had 4 cycles since off the pill all 28-29 days. I don't feel pregnant at all and am expecting awful morning sickness as my mum had it. Tested yesterday, BFN, so waiting a bit longer but it's driving me nuts! Only month 1 of ttc...how long can I do this?!

Hi Ladies,

I'm a newbie here! My DH and I decided we really wanted to TTC, so I came off the pill (Gederal) one week in to my next pack. We've strated cracking on (!) straight away, and I am so hoping I get pregnant quickly

I know when I ovulate as I can feel it (I get bad Mittelschmerz pains). Annoyingly now, (must be 4 DPO, and about a week after stopping the pill) I've started bleeding. I was hoping it's implantation bleeding but it's probably withdrawal due to coming off BC :(

Not sure when I should test if this is a withdrawal bleed. May just leave until October, but I really want baby news to share by Christmas!

StrawberryCheese - sounds like a very good plan!

Hi ladies mind of I join too? Congrats to those who got their BFP's! Im 31 and ttc#1 for 3years now . MC in January whilst on chlomid. Im 8dpiui and getting all signs for AF but this time I have been experiencing lower back pains for longer than usual. Im hoping it works first time round and like many I have been driving myself crazy symptom spotting. ..this 2 week wait is agonising! But glad to see im not the only one! Has anyone had any similar stories to mine or know of anyone who has been?
Now ive written this AF will probably arrive tomorrow. Isnt sods law a b*h! Good luck to you all xx

Well it looks like this cycle won't bring us any luck as DH has been told he needs to go away for work, just at the time when we need to DTD :( maybe I should just book time off work any follow him ;)

Lots of luck to you squiish I hope that AF doesn't show. I am temping as well so hopefully that will show I am ovulating. It is so hard not to worry though!

Creamhearts I feel the same about cm, haven't noticed the Ewcm that should have been prior to my temp increase, but is figured it could still have been there but I didn't notice/find it!? Here's hoping
8dpo on CD 27/28 (not sure when last period actually started! Doh) so AF could arrive any day.....

I am worried that I am not ovulating, I am trying to track my CM but I don't seem to have what the books say I should. Trying not to worry but it is hard. I am worried that I am too overweight to ovulate but I am trying to lose weight.

Bluebird, I didn't bleed once for the duration of my first implant but had a week-long bleed not long after having the new one fitted, and then again earlier this year when it would have been in around 2 years. Both times it was only very light and not like a proper period. Before I had the implant (5 yrs) I was on the pill for 10 yrs so I have absolutely no idea how long my cycle is!! When I think about it like that I'm not surprised it's taking a while to get started again!
