Its the reviews that hoicked me in.

AliceScarlett excuse my ignorance but what is pre-seed?

Hi all. Can I join in. Looking to ttc dc2 this year but like YogaYoga have diabetes which needs sorting a bit (have appointment at preconception clinic 14th January) and need to start on 5mg folic acid so likely to be March or April before we start trying. Was pregnant with ds (now 2) literally 2 weeks after we got the all clear to try but fast approaching 40 now so may not be so lucky this time.

Pre-seed!

Just bought pressed...so much for saving money

Ages ago I bought "The resourceful mums handbook" its so good for kids on a budget and has some great home made/crafty ideas.

Driving home from relatives now and DH said "shall we do it from now? Shall we just have a baby?" I said that as he was driving it was probably best to wait til we get home but yeah, that's it! Decision 100% made. Squeeeeeeeee.

Must remember not to take contraception without thinking as its so embedded in my routine. Think I'll dispose of it.

I just want to go and buy vitamins now.

Mostly excited, slightly terrified.

Wonder where we all be BFP wise this time next year. Jesus, just realised I could have a newborn, theoretically.

I haven't started the 'get healthy' yet either... Still have one bottle of fizz and a lot of leftover chocolates to get through!

This years our year!

Happy New Year everyone!

Happy New Year everyone!

Hi all, perfect thread for me too! Also hoping to TTC once I finish this and next pill pack, just plan to get back fit and eat well for the first few months and going to start using Ovia too. I downloaded it last month but was scared off by all the things it wants to know on a daily basis plus the fact I'm still on the pill now I think it's pointless to use it till I'm finished.

Oh god - eggs in 90 days are what you ate today?! Haha that means mine will be croque monsieur lunch and half a galaxy selection box!!! 😶

Going to enjoy a few drinks tonight as yes possibly next Xmas & New Years I'll be pregnant like you all!

Happy new year to you all

It's awful having to wait isn't it?! I'be only got two full cycles to wait and it seems like it will take forever!

I must say though that I am looking forward to a final indulgence tonight (well the Christmas champagne needs to be finished before healthiness can begin!).

Felipa yep know what you mean completely, for me Jan 1 it will be 2016 and that means it's TTC year!

Flamingo us too. I have some health things to get sorted before I can TTC, and it's driving me up the wall to have to wait.

Such a relief to know there are so many other ladies playing this waiting game! I can't believe how obsessed focussed I have become already

Ovia keeps moving my predicted dates for ovulation around which is strange, but it's only my first cycle off the pill so who knows what's happening! Last time I took a break from the pill about 6 years ago I had cycles between 30 and 55 days long.

Hello ladies
I am 27, came off the pill in November and trying to work out what my cycles are using Ovia. Am also taking multivitamins/folic acid tablets in preparation of ttc March onwards. Ive also had a v indulgent Xmas so will be making a conscious effort to make healthy choices from.tomorrow onward!
Hopefully March comes round quickly, hubby and I ready mentally to ttc now, but we need a few things in place with work etc before we can go ahead. Wish we weren't being so 'sensible' So I'll be here, just twiddling my thumbs, until ttc in March!
xx

Oops sorry about that! I am very happy that tomorrow is 1st Jan as even though it's just another day, in my head it is a big step closer to Feb/March. I have put off Ttc for six months for various unavoidable events and it has started to get me down so am looking forward to the new year and the countdown to Feb.

I am very ha

Hi ladies this is the perfect thread for me too!
Waiting to TTC #1 mid/late Feb at the earliest () as we have a snowboarding holiday planned early March. Have been taking folic acid and tracking on Ovia. Can't wait for Feb it arrive but will be secret pinning until then to pass the time/contain the excitement!

Hi Pointless yes its free, and addictive ;)

Is Ovia free? I conceived really quickly first time round but I'm older, tireder and have a couple of minor health probs now so I think it might take longer.

Ovia is brilliant, just downloaded it.

Great to 'meet' you all!
stumbly I'm 34 so not in a major rush but definitely feel a lot tireder and older than before I had any children so don't want to leave it any longer... Also don't want a massive age gap as my two are 6 and 4 so it's now or never.

I am making the most of the last of the Christmas hols, wine, choc, lots of baileys coffees and cheese.in fact am awaiting delivery of a curry as we speak.... Oops!
Then in January I will get focused (although not Ttc until late February).

Hope you are all enjoying the Christmas holidays too!

This is the perfect thread for me, it's actually made me join instead of just lurking and reading everyone else's posts! I'm 31, been married 7 years and we've decided to start ttc end of February. We have a ski holiday to go on first! I've just got ovia to try to track things, bought seven seas trying for a baby for me and wellman for husband. I kind of want to start now, don't like waiting once I've made a decision, but would be silly to be preg when going skiing.

Hi Yoga, hopefully you'll get the go-ahead and March will be your month! Ovia is great: I only started using it in November and I was horrified about how much I didn't know! Feel a little more expert now though.
