TTC journey starting late Nov 2019!

@Elmlee good luck! My advice is don't overthink it as your body will need to get back into routine... mine took a couple of months before I was regular again!
I just brought my folic acid on amazon 400mg

I've just had my implant removed and TTC for mine and my OH first. I've heard with the implants things go back to normal really quickly and I've had regular periods probably for the last year or so. Just going to see what happens.
Would be lovely to be ima threat without others in a similar position

I'm 27 and OH if 28

Hi everyone. I got my coil out in June so we’ve been trying since then but nothing yet. When I went into this all I stupidly thought we’d be pregnant by Christmas but contraception does take a while to leave your system. I think my periods have only just started to go back to normal. I also started by thinking I didn’t want an August baby but after trying for a few months I realised that I really don’t care as long as I do actually get pregnant and it’s healthy. I also started thinking about my friends with August birthdays and they’ve all got really good careers and never seemed to struggle in school so I wouldn’t worry about that bit at all.
Good luck to all of you. It’s an exciting journey and these forums are great for letting off steam and talking to others in similar situations.

Hi Everyone,

First time poster :) This is my third month ttc. I had a mc last month and aunt flo has just arrived today :( So December will be our lucky month...I hope! Just wanted to say hello and will follow on to a December thread if one gets started! Baby dust to you all!!

Hi guys, we were going to start TTC baby #1 in January but got a bit carried away on holiday and decided we could start in November! Currently 4dpo, this TWW stuff is a barrel of emotions already

@Elmlee if you haven't already, definitely might be an idea to look at getting off the pill sooner rather than later - then if it takes a while for periods to settle you have plenty of time to get a head start on that. I came off the pill last December and we went to using condoms instead, then o was tracking periods while I waited and hopefully good a good picture of my cycles already.

Good luck everyone, sending BFP's to you all

Hi,

I would like to join if that is ok?

I am currently at the start of my first ever two week wait, and already feeling the anticipation. Not sure I will be able to cope with the tww every month of trying, I am very impatient, hence the name.

Hoping that chatting with others on here will stop me from talking about it constantly with my OH, who says I might ruin the baby dancing if I keep talking about ovulation, cervical mucus etc!

Has anyone started ttc yet?

@SSC92 am I right in thinking that you too might be at the very beginning of your tww?

Good luck ladies...
TTC in 2 weeks now...I cant wait till December ahh
AF is here...

Hoping to TTC late Nov :), been off the pill for a year and now having regular periods so fingers crossed 🤞... 32 😊 Tried an ovulation stick last month and it worked so hoping everything is in working order x

Hey Ladies I thought I'd join too. I came off the pill 2 weeks ago and just going with the flow. I've heard it can take months for things to go back to normal ( although my cycles where never normal anyway ) but hoping I can join on the journey with you all :)

Btw I’m 28 and OH is 32 :)

@MrsSokhi I agree with you...things won’t always go as we want but as long as they’re healthy , that’s all that matters :) Tbh my main reason is my weight loss target to wait until December

@Elmlee I would say come off earlier especially since what @MrsSokhi has said! It may take a while for cycles to return to normal ?

Hey ladies

This will be my 3 cycle trying since coming off the pill in May, it took until September for for cycles to go back any normal state so please don't get your hopes up that you will snap back because it didn't for me and I got a shock.
I don't mean to be mean but I wish I knew that before and I would have come off the pill a lot sooner.
Taking a good mv is definitely advisable, I'm using pregnacare conception which I would highly recommend as it normalised my cycles but did seem to delay the first cycle.

You can try your very best to plan the month you give birth etc but it probably won't work out that way, your better off just going with it and what will be will be. You'll drive yourself mad otherwise.

Good luck xxx

Think I will join this! December will be my first 'proper' TTC journey...
Have had previous one-off attempts which has led me to join other threads but we have put a halt to it ....mainly for a September baby but also because I want to get healthy! Fingers crossed for us !!

Hi OP!

I'm 29 and my OH is 31, and we've decided to start TTC early December. I'm really excited. It feels like forever until December but I'm waiting it out as I'd prefer to have a September - April due date if we're lucky enough for things to work out quickly. Statistically August borns don't do as well at school because they're a whole year behind September borns. Ultimately though you can't decide - it's all down to luck!

We're looking to fully gut and renovate our home between now and December - so that's keeping me distracted in the meantime.
