Hello,

I've had a look on a few threads i was wondering whether there were any younger groups as the majority are late 20's etc.

I'm not trying to be ageist I just would like to talk to a few younger TTC'ers

How's everyone getting on? I just had a positive test!

queenoftheworld93 · 14/10/2015 17:04

Aw I hope not! I am only on CD7 of first cycle :( time is going so slowly!

Jaffacakey · 14/10/2015 10:34

I think i may be out :( had some slight spotting this morning so i think AF may be on her way

Jaffacakey · 12/10/2015 10:46

Nope there is definitely lots of babies around everyone i know is announcing a pregnancy or just had a baby.

Welcome Queen :)

I am due to test this week :) starting to feel nervous don't think i have had any symptoms this month :(

queenoftheworld93 · 11/10/2015 21:11

Hello :) nice to see other young people here! I'm 22 and partner is 23.

SpecialStains · 11/10/2015 15:24

Hey all, how's it going? It seems like there are babies everywhere I look at the moment! Anyone else noticing this?!

JaniceWeAreLeaving · 09/10/2015 17:00

Jaffa I will probably wait to see if AF shows before testing. Had too many disappointments testing before then. Good luck everyone Flowers

misskaybee · 09/10/2015 16:05

Same jaffacakey. I'm sorry Janice, hopefully this time will be lucky.x

Jaffacakey · 09/10/2015 09:24

Welcome Janice sorry for your losses, We have quite a few of us now :) getting difficult to keep up.

When is everyone testing?

JaniceWeAreLeaving · 08/10/2015 20:12

Can I join? 24yo have a 7 yo DD (had DD at 17) and been TTC no2 for nearly 2 years with 3 early miscarriages. I ovulated earlier this week and DTD most days so hopefully have all bases covered.

Jaffacakey · 08/10/2015 16:33

It's torture spotting symptoms :( i keep think every twinge maybe..... but then i pinch myself as i am being obsessed again :(

misskaybee · 08/10/2015 15:56

I don't know what's happening with me. I think I might just have a uti. Only had the implant out on 26th but I'd been on antibiotics which messed things up and I was on and off so I could be pregnant from that. But I doubt it Sad but other than that I doubt I could be getting symptoms straight after Dtd so I know it's probably uti and I just have pregnancy on my mind.

Jaffacakey · 08/10/2015 15:36

Why does the TWW take so long :( i'm only 4DPO maybe going on pos OPK but that isn't the most scientific ovulation predictor

WhyDoesGastonBark · 08/10/2015 09:24

Hi all, I am not TTC but jut thought I would give you some words of wisdom GrinHmmBlush

I was not long turned 23 when TTC my son, just turned 24 when he was born.

To the poster who was worried about telling her parents - don't worry! If they know it was a well thought out and planned pregnancy from a place of love, they won't be concerned. It is weird though as you are basically admitting you had sex! To your parents which nobody wants to do!

Don't discredit the older Mums either, they could be really good friends, most of my Mum friends are 4-10 years older than me but they never make me feel like the baby!

If you do look babyfaced and go to some appts without your partner, try not to be offended when the medical staff assume you are a teenage, single mother of an unplanned baby... They just do that unfortunately and the only one who gets upset if you dwell on it will be you.

Good luck in your TTCing

Jaffacakey · 08/10/2015 09:16

DH does not want to find out as he had no choice with his previous, so i think i will give him hat ;)

misskaybee · 07/10/2015 22:39

Are any of you guys finding out what you're having or leaving it a surprise?x

Jaffacakey · 07/10/2015 20:59

I am so glad I am not the only one who feels this way and I'm glad I'm not the only one to at 21, I know when I do the people at work will have lots to say and bitch about. They are the worst when you work in an office !!!

My DH has a Ds from a one night stand he is nearly 3

Andysgirl15 · 07/10/2015 19:24

I've noticed that too about some of the responses on here being bitchy. A lot of the women on here are career women aswell but it's the kind of language you associate with a chav down the local estate haha

misskaybee - me and OH are wanting a little boy, I told him I'm not having anymore girls, I found out the hard way that they are really moody and high maintenance and squeal like a banshee when they are told no. My DD has put me off having anymore girls lol x

misskaybee · 07/10/2015 18:08

Andysgirl15 awww a DD! I have a DS who will be 2 this Sunday, currently trying for a DD as OH only wants two.

Lollyb20 ooo that sounds positive fingers Crossed!

Jaffacakey I know what you mean, you'd think people would be nicer but then some of the answers you get you remember you get bitches everywhere haha.

Jaffacakey · 07/10/2015 16:02

I know i enjoy the other groups however they are all quite a bit older than us and i feel slightly put off asking questions etc as sometimes you can get a bitchy answer which isn't helpful!

lollyb20 · 07/10/2015 15:56

Ahh your telling me! Im just glad to have found people my own age. Feel like we can relate more to eachother x

Jaffacakey · 07/10/2015 15:43

Welcome Andysgirl

OOO lolly that does sound positive but our bodies can play aweful tricks on us :(

Andysgirl15 · 07/10/2015 15:23

Hi girls, can I join I'm 22 and I'm Cd1 so I got a somewhat longer wait than u gals to POAS haha

This month is month #2 for me and OH and we already have a DD who is coming up 13 months so feel like now is the time to create a sibling for her lol x

lollyb20 · 07/10/2015 15:22
