TTC First Time... #3!!

Clearly losing my marbles as well @MistyBxx It was +ive but out of about 9 tests it was the only one. I've heard negative things about the Superdrug tests giving false positives.

Hi, new here. First time TTC, first cycle. Couldn't resist testing before AF (due tomorrow) got my hopes up over a Superdrug test. Nothing else indicates +ive and I've got an achey back now so expecting AF any moment. Fun

So sorry @passmethewine123. This whole process can be so hard and crap. I'm not bothering this month, as the stress of it and recovering from my accident isn't manageable. Sending lots of love. X

And AF had arrived a day early this morning. Fucks sake

Awwww she is adorable @passmethewine! Welcome back!

She's already gone to her new home with a friend. Very sad we couldn't keep her but it was lovely having in the house for a bit, up every couple of hours last night to give her tiny feeds and loo breaks gave a bit of an insight in to what may be ahead in the future 😂😂

Awwww @passmethewine what are you going to do with the kitten??? She is gorgeous!

Thanks ladies. I did a test this morning and unsurprisingly it's a BFN 😞 still no symptoms to report, sore boobs are feeling less sore this morning, no nausea or metallic taste. Only possible symptom could be tiredness but that could also be from work!
In other news I ended up bringing g an abandoned kitten home yesterday but my ice hearted OH won't let me keep her 😭

I'm well thank you!
Just wondering, what are all your thoughts on the whole 'metallic taste in the mouth' being a symptom? I've heard some people think it's a sure sign but others think it's an old wives tale!

@SophSoph glad to have you back, how are you feeling today?

@Flat I do hope you feel better soon, never know maybe taking the pressure off is exactly what your body need x

@passmethewine welcome back! Sorry you're feeling down, I know waiting is horrible. Sometimes though no symptoms itself can be a symptom! Fx for you x

Also sorry to be a misery and negative, just really need to vent and I know you girls will get me. I hate talking to my OH about it, I want to stay positive for him x

Hi ladies...some of you may remember me I used to post on this thread a few months ago...I had a bit of a break from Mumsnet as I started a new job and that took my focus off TTC for a while which was nice. However I'm now firmly back in the land of crazy, and still not pregnant 😒
I am 9DPO just now, this is cycle 6 for us. Can't believe I ever actually thought it might happen first time for us, what a naive idiot lol!
I had a really good feeling about this cycle before ovulation, not sure why, but now at 9DPO with no symptoms whatsoever and what looks like a declining temperature that optimism is rapidly fading 😞 I know I'm not out yet but it sure feels like it, I also have a 11/12 day luteal phase so AF should be here on Saturday. If there is a little bean in there that hasn't implanted yet it's time is quickly running out!!

So sorry to all the familiar names who are still here on this journey, although it's heartbreaking I have to admit I do find it kind of comforting that I'm not the only one still not pregnant! 💔

Hi ladies, how are we all? I'm back at work after half term, and deciding to not actively TTC this month due to recovering from my accident a couple of weeks ago. We'll DTD if we want to, but no pressure. Hope you're all ok.

It's amazing how much the pill affects you- I had no boob pain at all when taking it!

Yeah I thought so! :/ Every twinge you just hope though don't you?! AF due in 12 days...

@MistyBxx oh I'm so sorry to hear that. I hope you get a wee sticky bean this time and very soon xx

Hey Soph, glad to see you posting again :) Sore nips 4 dpo is an ovulation thing I think. I get that too. Same with the random cramps. When are you due to test?

Thanks ladies, your advice is really appreciate. The other half and I DTD every day in the 5 day window of ovulation. I only ovulated 4 days ago so was just wondering the relevance of sore nipples?? Just an ovulation sign this early on? Also today been having those weird cramps you get a few days before your period?
Amazing how aware of you're bodies you are when you're TTC. Had our 2 year old nephew round today and my ovaries were glowing!!! Haha

@MistyBxx I really hope so. Not long to wait now. This will be my third pregnancy and the first time I have tracked my cycles. I never understood it all before so had no idea when I ovulated or conceived so it's all a bit new lol. Nice to be able to speak to people in the same boat. How long have you been trying? Xx

@MistyBxx yeah my cycles seem to be short. I have been having cramps again today but more on the right side and totally shattered. Could just be that I am paying more attention to my cycle this month. We shall see. 11 days until I can test. No spotting since yesterday xx
