Obsessed with TTC :(

So....I decided only a month ago to start trying. I've been on the fence years about kids and finally get to 33 and I've become obsessed.

It's driving me nuts, I've only done one cycle - today alone I've done a test even though I just had a period and haven't even ovulated??!

I'm reading every article going and watching live births on YouTube.

Wth has happened to me?! Also concerned if it takes me a year how much of my life it's going to consume.

I need to forget about it, any tips?

Anyone else feel the same and totally obsessed by it? I am really hoping it happens soon as I can't take much more or this!

I'm so glad it's not just me then!! I have also started to panic as call me crazy but I didn't realise you can only get pregnant in 12-24 hour period which makes me feel likes it's harder than I thought and I should have started sooner.

I totally sympathise! I think the first month is extra crazy though and it does get easier :) we are on our 4th cycle (well 3rd really as we started after ovulation the 1st month) and i find myself thinking about it much less than the first month :) i think i watched every youtube video imaginable during cycle 1 haha

I can't advise but I'm the same. We've done we have wanted to try again for around 6-8 months but only just came off the pill 25th August. I think it's natural?
