New here TTC baby #1 Cycle #1

According to the Ovia app I've downloaded, I'm in my (first) fertile period which is great to know, except, it's made me act like a stupid schoolgirl.

Fertile period apparently began yesterday and all it's done is made me feel like DTD is forced which has resulted in me feeling and acting like some kind of flipping weirdo. Needless to say, I didn't DTD yesterday. DH is not home till v.late tonight so no chance today, but then that's not a bad thing considering how weird I've was acting/felt yesterday.

Has anyone else felt like this? I know it's all in my head but I just can't shake it. I unreasonably feel like I desperately need to DTD and that's actually ruining it. I also don't want my DH to feel any pressure either so don't want to convey my feelings on to him.

No didn't stop me either pixie!! fx for us both huh! hope you feel better soon x

Your time will come** these bloody acrylic nails!! X

Typical isn't it Lisa! Still dtd earlier though- nothing going to stop me!! lol will be thinking of you on the 18th, good luck! Af due 25th for me.
Bless you, your more will come?? my best friend is pregnant and having a gender scan reveal party next month. So difficult keeping the ttc secret from her!! X

pixie I was exactly the same last week! Full of sore throat and cold... Don't feel a million miles better now!! I can't believe that I've found out 3 of my friends are pregnant in one week!! I'm keeping my fx that this will be a lucky month

Congrats sunflower !!

I think this is the 3rd bfp in this threat!

Louise your due on my birthday ??

I'm in my fertile window at the mo but feel so ill ?? typical

Good luck all xx

Congratulations sunflower x

Oh congratulations sunflower im sooo pleased for you! This group really is a positive one! I can't even remember how many bfps we've had already! Here's fx to the rest of us x

It will be my first and Im completely clueless. Luckily, my sister did this all last year so has all the books and shes a midwife too! So im going to be bothering her lots. Im only 11dpo so dont want to get ahead of myself too much but im soo excited and relieved. Even 2 months of trying has felt like ages! Fx for everyone else waiting this month. I hope this lucky group brings some more bfps.

Not worked out due date yet, I poas this morn before work so had to contain myself and try and go about my usual day! It looked negative so hopped in the shower and when I got out I couldnt believe it. Treated myself to the digital one to confirm xx

Huge congratulations Sunflower! What a lucky thread this one is.

Thanks ren, will grab myself some of that, I'm just so fed up with these sore spots!

Congratulations sunflower, that's fantastic news!

Congrats sunflower! Have you worked out your estimated due date? I'm 15th may, is this your first? It is for me and I'm clueless x

Oooh congratulations Sunflower it is exciting to see the number of people with a BFP rising.

I was impatient and tested at 11dpo... But it looks like I got my BFP!!

No way XL, my AF would normally be due 18/19 Sep too. I'm travelling without my husband 19-22nd, so I'm going to see if I can wait it out until the 22nd before testing.
Definitely 3rd time lucky for us girls!!x

Hi wanderlust this too is my 3rd cycle so am thinking 3rd time lucky! x

2ww for me now too! Testing 18th! Fx for us all girls! x

Good luck @sunflower86 I'm with you in the waiting game too (ps can I join pls>?!) - I am only 2 DPO and so excited. This is my 3rd month of TTC and I am thinking 3rd time lucky!! Its so frustrating waiting and you feel like you're going crazy hey? So its nice to be able to share this wait with some of you ladies. Who else is currently still in the waiting game?

I'm 33, this is my 1st !

We WILL be pregnant very very soon ladies. Lets all think positive and all x

Hi TheCatsMother99,

Try a cream with benzoyl poroxide 5% in and moisturise after use, I suffered with outbreaks of bad skin now and again while still on the 'helps your skin' pill and it helped, I'm still using it now in small amounts xx

My last cycle was 45 days post-Cerazette :'(

Hi all! I haven't been around since I last posted as nothing is really happening.

I downloaded that Ovia app when I got AF (I think it was that rather than withdrawal bleed as it happened about 3 weeks after coming off pill but not 100% sure) and it says my fertile period begins on Wednesday so I now feel like I'm just waiting around to dtd next week! I also bought some of those cheapy-amazon opk sticks which I'll use next week too.

My skin is going crazy since coming off cerazette. I haven't been this spotty for years, especially around my chin. I guess I need to see it as a good thing in that it shoes the pill is/has left my system but it's really flipping annoying and I feel like it could be a tell-tell sign to some that I'm off the pill as my skin is usually pretty clear and the chin is known to be the hormonal area... But I think I could be over thinking things.

Congrats Brenna (forgot to say it earlier!). How exciting

Today Im feeling sooo tired. Went to bed at half 9 last night and slept for 12 hours, and now at 4pm Im feeling like I need a nap. Hope this is a good sign and not just me being lazy!

Hi and welcome cakelady! I too am 37 and trying for my 1st!! 3rd cycle lucky now tho...I use the ovia app seems to be ok! I too am in the 2ww... Had a positive opk today tho so am still dtd lol! AF is due 18th fx for us both! Lisa x

Hi can I join?! I'm 37, TTC #1 and cycle #1! Currently in the TWW and AF due 12th but pretty sure I missed the best fertile window lol!
Are most people using Ovia app? I've got Kindara but was recommended by an American friend so I don't know anyone else using it!!

Oh Im sorry to hear that ren, but it will be good if it kick starts your normal cycle now and next month could be the one.

Im 6 maybe 7 dpo, and still just feel normal. No nausea, tiredness or anything. Got loads of cheap tests so will just amuse myself with a daily test until af shows up (or not fx)
