TTC #1, Cycle 1. Anyone In?

Hi all,
Longtime lurker, occasional commenter, rare poster here.
DH and I decided to start to TTC after much deliberation recently.
I've been on the pill for 16 years and haven't had a natural period in that time! Had my withdrawal bleed which started on 15th Jan and think I may have ovulated on Thursday 2nd Feb. I was doing OPKs (I know - first cycle, but if I'm going to do it, I'm going all in!) and got an almost-positive then - didn't have any more OPKs with me to test slightly later in the day.
DTD numerous times in what I'm estimating is my fertile week (working on the basis that my cycle is 28 days but don't really know at the moment).
So now the waiting begins.
Anyone in the same position or want to join?
Advice and your stories welcomed!

Hi thanks, I’m 32 so need to crack with things 😂 I’ll probably visit my GP if things don’t turn out well this cycle but fingers crossed I get my BFP. It’s good to stay positive with all this TTC business 😊

Hiya!

I'm TTC #1 and on cycle 1

Currently on CD11 and have been using OPKs since CD9. All have been negative so far but over the last 2 days I've been getting EWCM.

I only stopped the pill mid December and got my first AF on 25th Jan. presuming il have a 28day cycle (I did 8 years ago) not had AF whilst on the pill at all. I'm also using the ovia app to track.

Hoping to get a positive OPK over the next 3 days! What days in the cycle have you other ladies got a positive?

Xoxo
