New here TTC baby #1 Cycle #1

Hello, I'm new to MumsNet. We are officially going to ttc baby #1 at the end of September but I'm 1dpo and in the 7 days leading up to ovulation we DBD 4 times. I'm so so hoping that AF won't make an appearance on the 22nd August! Just starting the tww. Anyone else in this boat, or anyone else ttc on cycle 1?

Best wishes,
K x

If Ovulated when I think I did AF is due next Friday. Although DH was away on business the two days after so only had the few days before and day of Ov so may have missed it also! I have ages to wait :(. So hard to keep focused. I've had in the last 5 weeks 4 people I know announce their bfp, which leads to mutual friends then asking when are u having one!

Still too early for signs for me. Hopefully implantation will be this week.

Good luck everyone x

I'm on 2ww, due AF on Tuesday but this was our first month without contraception but when I checked the calendar I think I only caught a tiny bit of the fertile window. Not got any signs apart from peeing a lot but not banking on it really!

MrsBac83 · 04/11/2015 12:01

Yeah I'm exactly the same Paige. AF due Monday I think so not long to go. Does keep distracting me though.
I have noticed I've been peeing more often the last few days which I'm hoping is a good sign. Keep debating doing a test. I drove myself crazy last month as well though so really trying to forget about it! Confused

Morning.

Anyone on their TWW. How you getting on? I'm trying not to think about it too much but I just wanna know BFP or not! Trying to keep my mind busy x

Thanks I'll have a read online x

XL · 02/11/2015 23:27

Hi Paige it was in the independent and telegraph today x

Paige43 · 02/11/2015 18:03

XL - where did you read about it?

XL · 02/11/2015 17:55

Has anyone seen all the fertility stuff in the news today? I really hope that they don't pull all funding for fertility treatment that would be devastating for lots of people. I think I'm going to make a GP appt this week for a referral now.. I was going to give it 6 months but I may aswell get the ball rolling I think and my consultant did say go after 4 months so If it happens meanwhile then fab but at least I'll get the ball rolling if not!

XL · 02/11/2015 17:52

Oh I'm so sorry to hear that Brenna... Big hugs to you x

ren2903 · 02/11/2015 10:35

Brenna, what sad news. My thoughts are with you at this difficult time x

Annie congratulations, your instinct was amazing x

I'm sat with a hot water bottle as AF has arrived, but it is seeming more like a 'normal' period so far so can't complain too much!

Woody096 · 02/11/2015 08:17

Brenna, apologies my stupid predictive text 'Brenda'xx

Woody096 · 02/11/2015 07:45

Brenda, very very sad news, you are in my thoughts xx

Annie0369 · 02/11/2015 07:25

Brenna, thoughts go out to you xxx

Paige43 · 02/11/2015 07:05

Xxx Brenda

Brenna24 · 02/11/2015 01:00

Congratulations Annie.

I'm back. I had a MMC on the 17th October. We found out on the 9th October the baby had died 2 weeks before. I am devastated. Baby Rowan was cremated on Monday and we got his or her ashes back on friday.

XL · 01/11/2015 23:51

Congratulations Annie!!! I'm so pleased for you! It would be super rare to get a false positive so you must be pregnant! Maybe the bleeding was an implantation bleed? Flowers

XL · 01/11/2015 23:50

AF- auntie flo= period
2ww= 2 week wait
Sorry! X

redstrawberries101 · 01/11/2015 21:36

Missclarke - take this opportunity to get yourself in better health for pregnancy! Take the pregnacare, exercise and clean your diet and hopefully when you do start trying it will happen quickly for you!

Annie- many congrats!!

No one replied re what AF actually stands for? Also 2ww (although I assume this is the two weeks post ovulation leading to AF) Blush

MrsBac83 · 01/11/2015 21:02

Good luck Annie. X

Annie0369 · 01/11/2015 20:50

Thanks woody, yeah if I get a positive in the morning I'll definitely book an appointment for the docs, at the moment there's no other symptoms x
