First time TTC - join me on this journey

It does hurt a little! Just a prick though and then it's gone. For some weird reason I wasn't expecting it to. There was one near my thumb which felt quite uncomfortable when I moved but that was about it. Other than that it was oddly relaxing..

To be fair Bellini this is only my 1st month of trying but that's because we decided last year we wanted kids but the timing just wasn't quite right (wish we just started then!) So I've had almost a year of anticipation hence why I'm so eager to conceive! What about you?

That's interesting Harpsichord, hope it helps things quickly! Does it hurt?

Hi everyone! Lots to catch up on. So I went to see the acupuncturist last week and she was lovely. She gave me a thermometer to record my bbt every morning. I'm currently cd17 and I normally ovulate on day 19 I think so getting close! My temperature has been rising too! I normally stay laying down for at least 15 mins. I try just to have a nap which passes the time lol.

Bellini that's great news about the astrologers reading. If anything at least it keeps your mind positive.

I'm going back to the acupuncturist on Thursday. It's reassuring to have someone help practically move things along. Although it's a tad expensive! She's encouraged my dh to get tested as well and he seems up for it.

Will report back next week. It's going to be a busy week for me!

Oh man just had so much junk food, pizza and wine galore, the ttc diet is not going well #fail lol!!!!!

Hahah yeah I know it's so difficult not to symptom spot! How long have you been ttc for Natalie? I can't believe it's taking soooooo long!!!! X

Hey Bellini, still in the 2ww & trying not to symptom spot. Difficult when I've had a bit of cramping on one side this evening, change in cm& an increased heart rate!

Hoe you doing Bellini?

Yo yo everyone! How's it all going? Don't think I'm preggers majorly pms today! Lol! Xxx

Hi all, not read the thread in ages - lots to catch up on! :)

Sorry to all who AF have caught - fingers crossed and baby dust to you all!

I'm in my 2ww now but not holding out much hope as I didn't DTD on or after ov as I hurt my back hoovering Doesn't stop me from symptom spotting tho!

If AF doesn't show up by 16th I'll be testing - if I can wait that long!

Heeeey ladies!!! I'm finally back from vacation now- and on CD9 so getting close to crunch time (if my cycle behaves this month...!) Will be tiring out the DH for the next 2 weeks . Awwww Justme- don't get disheartened- it may be too early yet- it's not over until AF arrives!!!!!! How is everyone else doing?

Hi everyone how's it going? Xx

Hi all. BFN for me this morning. I was fully expecting that but still feel so disappointed. No matter how much we stared at it that other line just didn't show up.

Hi Nish, thanks so much! How are you feeling? TMI: I tried your air cycle this morning so let's see if it worked lol!!!!! X

Hi Harp and everyone and newbies welcome welcome !! So harp I got my reading back from my fertility astrologer she said that I'd definitely have 2 children but that both my and husband are more likely to conceive in the second half of this year.... Who knows if it's a load of rbsh but I guess we'll see!! How are you and everyone? So guys, I had a question by im ovulating soon and alert this may be TMI; how long after sex do you like down and are there any positions you prefer? I had sex earlier today and lay down for about 10 mins then all of it was trickling out- thoughts anyone or advice?? Xxxx

I have a feeling af is on its way...if it hasn't appeared by tomorrow I'll do a test but I'm pretty certain what the result will be! Hope you're all having a good weekend!

I have a few health problems myself and then plus being on the pill for 14years is also worrying me; feeling it might take me a while to get preggo. Acupuncture, always wanted to try it as I have painful bladder syndrome and wanted to try it for that but never did. But didn't know could help with conception, have let us know how it goes on Monday. X

Bellini how was your fertility astrologer reading?

Hi both. I was totally nervous too but there was one night last week where I couldn't sleep at all and i knew i was about to get my period so was bloody pissed off loo. and at 5 in it felt like a great idea to post a message here lol. To recap I'm 30 been off the pill for nearly 11 months and still no sign of a baby. I did have a few health problems last year which caused me stress and they say stress is no good for baby making so that could have set me back. Going to try acupuncture this month. Have my first appointment on Monday.

Yeh my first thread also was nervous about posting. But can see the support everyone gives each other and advice.

Hello!! I'm new to this too so don't worry about abbreviations etc. This is the first thread I have posted on so not too sure of them all myself!

I guys can I join been reading through your posts
I am 28 and was on the pill for 14years and came of the pill in February this year
I bought clear blue ovulation kit and got a flashing smiley today.
Not good with all the abbreviations yet so bare with me.
Excited but scared about this new journey

Thanks Harp, hopefully this is our month!

Keeping my fingers crossed for you! I'm cd8. Dtd in earnest this month! Feeling positive so hopefully it works!

Hello (had a name change from CFor123).

How is everybody? I'm cd28 and Ovia is telling me I can test in 2 days. This is a real test of my will power waiting til then!!

Thank you Blondie for the boost! AF always turns up at the worst times! I've booked for an acupuncture appointment today. After nearly 11 months of ttc I feel like I should do something ! Congrats again Nish ☺
