New here TTC baby #1 Cycle #1

Hello! May I join? TTC cycle #1, I'm on CD1 - this will be baby number 3 after longish break :) I just had my coil out 2 weeks ago so really hoping things will go back to normal quite quickly!

I've been through this 4 times before (2 early MC's) and I always say I'm going to be relaxed about the whole thing, but I always obsess over TWW symptoms and am a POAS addict!! We have told only 2 close friends that we are TTC, everyone else assumes that we are 'finished' with our family.

Good luck ladies with your TTC journeys! x

Hi Monkey!

I'm not exactly sure when I ovulated (if at all) but the app I'm using to track my cycles says I'm on CD20 and my period is due 19 Aug. I nearly bought a pregnancy test with my weekly shop yesterday but decided not to as they are in those tagged boxes.. None of our friends or family know we are ttc and I thought it would be just my luck to bump into someone as I was waiting for it to be de-tagged!! So I ordered a couple on Amazon last night instead :) Going to try and wait until AF is a few days late before I test!

Have you told anyone you're ttc? We decided not to so we don't feel under pressure.. My family would be so over the top excited, and we know it could take us a while due to DH work schedule. I have mentioned it to a couple friends at work - one is ttc and the other is pregnant - but it's nice to be able to chat about things in here too!

Hi, can I join in?
1dpo so just starting my 2ww! Just need to figure out how to keep sane until af is due on 23rd

Hi Katilo :)

Yes we're on baby #1 and cycle #1.. we were planning to officially start ttc in September (DH works away and he wasn't due home until then) but he got a couple of unexpected nights at home this week so we dtd every night.. I guess that means things have been brought forward a month!! This is my first cycle off the pill though so goodness knows what my cycle length is.. but based on a 28 days cycle the timing was good this week!

It's all quite exciting huh? We've been together for 10 years but only started talking about ttc when we got married 2 years ago. Just finishing off a house build so we have the time and space.. we're as ready as we'll ever be I expect!!
