Anyone looking to start TTC in New Year?

Thanks for the reply @effram I hadn’t tested since the 18th as I wasn’t expecting to ovulate yet (last month I didn’t get a positive opk until cd 27!). I’ve actually got a doctors apt later today that I’ve been waiting for for ages due to irregular periods and short luteal phase since coming off the pill in August. Might ask him about it too. Been DTD loads just to cover all bases anyhow haha

@Newbie0818 I would test again tonight. It could be concentration of your urine but when did you test before the positive one? The surges are quite short so it could be you just caught the end of it! Either way go go go!

Forgot to add that I had some cramping lower right side last night in bed. I did think at the time “is this it?!” 🤞🏼

Advice please ladies!

So currently on CD19, and got a positive OPK earlier today (line same as control). Did one an hour ago and negative again! What’s going on?? End of LH surge? Dudd test? Shall I do another one tonight or tomorrow morning?

Hope everyone’s doing well x

Evening all!

Hope you don't mind me popping back to update,
I'm now 8+4! We've had a reassurance scan and got to see our little ones heart beat and all on schedule!

I'd been really ill with morning sickness, had 5 days where I couldn't keep anything down at all, but that seems to have eased off now

Hope everyone's doing okay?

Congratulations @rhirhibumblebee

Thanks @FootballAndBeer145 but how annoying having such a long wait for an appointment that seems so unfair!

@EffRam I feel pretty pregnant considering I've just spent 4 hours on the maternity unit discussing my diabetes with three obstetricians! I've now got maternity notes at 5 weeks and I don't know even know if there's a hb yet I'm having a scan in a couple of weeks to check viability then if all seems ok I'll be started on some aspirin as a precaution

Congratulations @EffRam!!

@butterflylove81 was similar to you with negative tests until the day! How are you doing?

Oh wow Effram that's amazing!

Hi started reading this thread earlier this evening then skipped to the end to see if any bfps to see lots.!! How exciting. My husband and I are ttc baby no 1, came off pill 18th December had withdrawal bleed until Xmas day. Currently on cd 61😕 no sign of period in sight and many a bfn stick in the bathroom bin! Need somethng to happen soon, wonder how long this first period may take to come. We have dtd plenty every 2 - 3 days throughout the month so hopefully when my body decides to start ovulating again I can catch it!!

Yay! Congratulations!! Gosh, babies everywhere!!!

Oh...I got negatives on cheapies this morning (period due today) thought maybe a shadow but decided was being silly.

Still no sign so did a frer when I got in from work. ...bfp. yikes!

Hi all!

Took a bit of a break for reading / posting here as found it all a bit hard whilst waiting for blood & scan results!

Yet to see a doctor but GP receptionist has said that my scan results show PCOS, I can't see a GP until the end of April (apparently no appointments) 😭

@yoomoo had a Miss-miscarriage in Nov at 11 weeks.

I ovulated on Saturday afternoon and we had unprotected sex last Thurs, Fri and Sat x2!

ahh such lovely news @rhirhibumblebee and @butterflylove81 !

Think I'm out this month, negative today and period due Wednesday. Temp dropped this morning too.Timing wise it is better for work if I don't get pregnant until March onwards but I'm still a little disappointed! Never mind, on to the next!

@yoomoo thanks for asking I've been tired and very hungry. Have had fish and chips and just sat eating some crisps good news is I'm not diabetic (have had gestational diabetes twice) yet so can eat what I like at present. I've pricked my finger a couple of times and all normal so eating carbs while I can haha.

@rhirhibumblebee good lines good to see your first response one I was worried my pink line was no dark enough but it's no lighter than yours so it's made me feel better I think I was expecting it to be as dark as the control. I got a positive on a digital yesterday said 1-2 so I'm going to try not to test for a week now until I can take another and hope for 3-4 xxx

How's everyone Else doing? The October 2020 thread on mumsnet is dead they've all moved over to Facebook already think we waited until the 12 weeks scans before we did that with my other two so there's literally no one to chat to until someone sees ive joined and adds me!

@yoomoo Thank you. Good luck ! I have my fingers crossed for you! I had a feeling because I was getting crazy dreams every night. Also tired .... maybe from the weird dreams 😂🙈. Now I'm mad hungry all the time.

I tested again Valentine's Day and it was darker. I'll use my last test Tuesday and then make myself stop unless anything bad happens. AF is actually due tomorrow so I'm really nervous ! But have my fingers crossed.

Checking back in to see lots of happy news Congratulations.

I'm Eitak, been off the pill a year but been using other contraceptives. Trying for our first but trying not to go to deep for first few months.

I've rung my gp I was so confused both my pregnancies showed up 6 days before period. Period was due and not even a shadow yesterday I cried my eyes up I was in utter shock this morning and have put the tests in Kevin's Valentine's card but I caved and phoned him on his lunch break xx my gp said it doesn't matter what happens really in the two week wait what will be will be and said ring her next week as I feel this is too good to be true so going to wait until I've missed my period properly before she refers me to the midwife but she's prescribed me some diabetic strips as I was diabetic a week after my period last time around

@butterflylove81 That's brilliant 🥰🥰🥰Congratulations!! Xx

I did everything wrong yesterday I felt premenstrual hope it will be ok my anxiety is sky high! I need to chill now xx
