TTC First Baby Mega Mega Thread!

@sunshine1987 fingers crossed, you can’t tell your body how to be at the end of day. I just don’t know what’s normal or not normal you know. I’ll just keep going. At least I’ve seen my doctor, she told me not to worry but said the blood tests are a good thing to do as I’m 35 so she said if anything was to be picked up I’ve come early to investigate things xxxx

@GDOG35 aw no they’re bloody confusing! I only remember as I did a product test for clearblue so know the things inside out now lol. Just didn’t want you worrying about the LH surge bit. Hopefully if you’ve got EWCM you’ll get your positive soon xx

@Flapkackered I mean I have had abit of stress & 2 weeks ago I had a migraine attack for the first time & I was in bed for a week & given medication for that, so that could be a factor. Everyone morning I’m like ‘just hurry up already’!!!

@sunshine1987 think I’m confusing myself, this is first time I’ve really looked into all this. Sorry its flashy smiley face for 9 days, sorry Hun I’m getting myself muddled doesn’t take a lot to get me muddled xx

@GDOG35 oh yeah rant away! I was ready to throw the damn thing out of the window!
I would stick with it for a while as it most likely will go static. It maybe just you're ovulating a bit later this month for whatever reason. I am on day three of the 'O' so we can rant together!

Thanks ladies

@catcupcakes oooo in the 2WW, exciting!!!

@Flapjackered yeah the smiley face, getting fed up with it flashing at me!! I’m CD 20, my periods a usually quite regular maybe a day or 2 late, the other month I was like 4 days late. Keep feeling heavy in my lower abdomen & the odd twing. I guess this is a good place rant then to you ladies?? thanks for the reply

Welcome @catcupcakes 😁

@Delilah7 on second thoughts restricting water on a few days isn't going to be bad for you, i was just thinking for me it could be 2+ weeks of doing that which is not soooo healthy!

Thanks @sunshine1987 great to have some support. I'm currently 4 dpo on my first cycle so everything is new to me

@catcupcakes of course, welcome 😊

Hope I can join too ladies, newbie here and on my first cycle ttc xxx

@sunshine1987 😂 What is a step too far here? 🤷🏼‍♀️

@GDOG35 when you say you’re 9 days into your LH surge, what do you mean? The LH surge is only picked up by a positive/static smiley. If you’re using the advanced kit the flashing smileys are for a rise in estrogen prior to the LH surge

@delilah7 I test at 2pm hun, so I go for a wee about 10 and stop drinking liquids from then (or reduce) until I test. I often find myself bursting because I’ve told myself I can’t wee 🙄

@GDOG35 when you say LH surge do you mean the flashing smiley? If so (..as many of the ladies know and are used to my ranting!..) I had 14 days of the flashing smiley last cycle and it did eventually turn to peak and then I ovulated. It was cd25 which is late but I have irregular cycles so it is not unusual for me.
What cycle day are you?

@MrsR16 it's not nice when they reject is it? I hate it. I think @Delilah7 is right about trying to be understanding and try not to focus too much on it and try again.

@Delilah7 morning you! I would test between 2-4 and then again before you go to bed.
Are you just using the ICs or doing clearblue?
I wouldn't restrict water as it's so important for health and therefore ttc! I drink loads of water and always had a positive (eventually! 🙄)

@katbecool @flapjackered I was wondering if it would be too gross for me to say to sniff it? 😂🙈

@cupcakesandglitter thank you for the message I guess like everyone you wonder what’s normal & what not. I’ll see how it goes, plus had the clear stretchy mucous earlier I’ll take it as it comes. Thank u Hun x

@Delilah7 Morning  they say the best time is around 2, so try and hold your pee in during lunch and don't drink too much water!! Glad you got some last night, it's helped your mood!! Gp going to contact you today? Xxx

@MrsR16 they do have their off days which sucks, try and seduce him tonight? Xx

Hi @GDOG35 :) you may be ovulating late which can happen, if you've ovulated every other month, I'd take this as a blip :) keep testing later than you would xx

Hi ladies, I’m new to all this talk. Joined here to get abit of advice. Like anyone you always worry when you start trying. Been trying for 7 months & ovulated well I hope every month,using clear blue digital ovulation. This month though I’m on day 9 of my LH Surge, no positive yet to ovulation. Anyone else had this at all? I guess I haven’t ovulated? Went to my doctor last week as I’m 35 so I have to go for blood tests within 2-5 days of my next cycle just to see if it picks up anything. Never thought I would get so anxious about it all, just want it so bad

@Delilah7 that's awesome news! 😊 you're doing a better job than me! DH straight out rejected me last night 😢

Morning @Delilah7 how are you feeling today?
