After finishing the pill and weeks of not knowing what was going on AF has arrived. I never thought I would feel a sense of relief. So Jan we are going step up TTC. Judging my clue app ovulation is around 17th jan! Looking for a few pals who are in a similar situation to join me and share the journey with me. Grin

Thank you ladies! I don't quite believe it at the minute! All abit surreal!

introv3rt · 23/01/2020 09:52

@Ginge35 awww thats amazing!!! Congrats 😃😃💕

LauraJayne15 · 22/01/2020 23:25

Sorry to hear that @introv3rt.

I’m now on day 4 of spotting and AF is due on Saturday. I initially thought the spotting could be implantation bleeding but would it continue for four days? BFN this morning and will test again tomorrow

Huge congratulations @Ginge35. That’s amazing news! Xx

Ginge35 · 22/01/2020 21:29

Got my BFP on Monday! Other than sore boobs I feel fine (for now!), but I'm sure that's going to change soon!
Baby dust ladies!

introv3rt · 22/01/2020 18:49

How’s everyone getting in this month? I had a BFN this morning but AF isn’t due until Saturday.

I’ve also had light pink spotting today and yesterday - I’m hoping this could be implantation bleeding

Ginge35 · 02/01/2020 13:21

@LauraJayne15 & @introv3rt I know your pain! Mainly cycle two for us and are scheduling DTD which is a bit odd for us but hey ho!
I also understand the symptoms! I was nauseous, cramping, sore boobs and it turns out I was just due for a vicious AF! I'd convinced myself I was pregnant! I even kept having the hiccups which is also a sign your pregnant apparently (google is life!)
I totally lost it last month so I'm going to try and remain as calm as possible this mo the and just see what happens!
Baby dust to you all! ❤️❤️❤️

introv3rt · 02/01/2020 11:30

Hi Laura Smile I convince myself every month with symptoms, I could probably have a sore foot and think 'yep, Im definitely pregnant! GrinGrin
Im a bit obsessive about the whole thing, it's all I can think about, constantly googling things and reading threads on here, or watching youtube videos of pregnancy vloggers etc!!
Need to be patient I know

LauraJayne15 · 02/01/2020 11:18

Happy New Year everyone! We are TTC our first and this is our second cycle actively trying. I’m on CD6 and average 27 day cycles.

I’m planning to test around the 20th with FRER. I was completely convinced I was pregnant last month with sore breasts and other early symptoms. Not looking forward to the TWW again

introv3rt · 02/01/2020 10:51

Hello Smile Im on cycle day 13 and in my fertile week, struggling a bit though as my partner doesnt enjoy dtd on a schedule but its the only way Blush neither of us really have high sex drives, we dtd last night and hoping to dtd again tomorrow and Sunday whilst still in my fertile week
Hope everyone had a nice new year, back to work today I am so sleepy

sojo44 · 02/01/2020 10:04

How is everyone doing?

CD19 here, a little confused with OPK vs Ovusense results (OV window seems to be a few days apart on them) unless I'm on my usual cycle and OV doesn't happen for another 1.5weeks 😅. Have kept doing the deed just in case.

Thanks @introv3rt I've read this link before. Basically you can't eat anything! 😂😂😂 it's ridiculous isn't it! What about all the women that don't they are pregnant and eat whatever they want, smoke and drink and their babies are fine! Not that I condone smoking and drinking whilst pregnant of course!
I'm just curious if anyone on here TTC already has children and whether they found any difference with or without supplements?
I've been taking folic acid since September so I'm all good in that front! 👍🏻

I have started taking folic acid just.

OP posts:
Ginge35 · 31/12/2019 13:58

Ladies what's with the recommendation on taking Vit D as well folic acid? I know about folic acid but have people had trouble conceiving by not taking enough supplements?
Thoughts, comments, opinion most welcomed!

@sojo44 yeah what's that even about. I agree here is hoping they reduce at some point. Yeah am all for the jan testing! Looking forward to bringing in the new year and hopefully some exciting news in the months to come

sojo44 · 31/12/2019 10:16

@Wintergal 45 day cycles suck don't they!! We can just hope we get a shorter one occasionally 😶 it's almost a farce now. But at least we get to test some point in January 😂😅

Baby dust to everyone! How is NYE looking?

@user1471549213 I have just started with the folic acid.
Baby dust to us. Fingers crossed Jan is our month.

Good luck with your ttc journey ladies. Just to say definitely start taking the folic acid asap when ttc. They recommend taking it for approx 12 weeks prior to conception so the sooner the better.

Also I came off the pill and was pregnant within 6 weeks on my first 2 pregnancies and 12 on my 3rd so good luck.

Ginge35 · 30/12/2019 18:17

I wasn't pregnant that was supposed to say!!! 😝😝😝

Ginge35 · 30/12/2019 18:17

Hi ladies! TTC our first too! Didn't take this month so OPK should've giving me a smiley face this weekend so we will be trying again this month!
Was devastated when I got my AF (Christmas Day of all days!! 😩) as I had loads of symptoms and I was pregnant! It was so bizarre!
Baby dust to all!!! Here's to us all getting BFP's in Jan 2020! 🤞🤞

@sojo44 welcome! I like the sound of playing it by ear. Looks like my cycle is also around 45 days
