3dpo and looking for TTC friends

@mrsmummy111 yes I am 24 and TTC #1 but starting to get really disheartening

Hi @Lolliloo1234 👋🏻 I'd love a similarly neurotic online ttc buddy! I have just turned 30 and coming to the end of the TWW in cycle 1. DH and I DTD this morning and there was some spotting from me (sorry if TMI) and AF is due Monday so I'm feeling like I might be out of luck this month. Had a couple of BFN too - however I'm 10 dpo and tested yesterday. Will test again using a FRER on Sunday.

Welcome @Naera95 !!! Is this your first time TTC?

@Wineandrun You're still not completely out. I can see a definite line in the first one - do you have any FRER tests?

I’m on TTC 10 and currently 6DPO. Driving me crazy this month!! Really wanting to test not going to try hold off for 14dpo

Morning all!

So 11dpo today and went to take a hpt - just a cheap wondfo.

(sorry if this is TMI!) Peed in the pot and when I wiped there was blood. Weird that AF has come early but I guess I am still getting used to my cycles so looks like that's me out!

And the hpt was negative if I needed any more confirmation!

On to the next cycle I guess! At least I don't have the annoying wait for AF to arrive.

Good luck to everyone else waiting to test!

BFN this morning! Who knows what’s going on....still early days though!

@Wineandrun this is month 1 for you isn't it? Oh I'm praying for you that it is!!!! ❤️❤️

@Wineandrun That's a line!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yep I can definitely see a line and I'm notoriously bad at these things!

How exciting! If you can bare it I'd probably leave it a few days and then test again

So I have no idea whatsoever what possessed me to do this but I got an overwhelming urge to POAS and got this....it was really strange, it was like the urine got ‘caught’ at the first line so it took ages for the control line to appear, the first really thin lines appeared within a minute. It’s definitely pink but it’s soo sooo thin and faint! I really wish I hadn’t done it as now I’ve got a sliver of hope that I might be pregnant, what do you think? Determined not to test again until Sunday, I’m only maybe 8DPO! Please be honest and tell me if I’m going crazy....

Hello! Yes just used the ovulation strips, no temperature taking. I always notice the CM as there is quite a lot of it, sorry TMI, but this month have noticed a real decrease which is odd?

I also can't believe we're doing this as I've been pretty adamant that I only wanted one! But I've just done a complete 180 and really want to go for it. Fingers crossed it happens for everyone

Hi @GoHardGoHome I know what you mean about when you decide to try for a baby, you just want one. I see so many women that are pregnant for just had babies. Dunno if I just notice it more now. Do you just use ovulation strips and CM to see when your ovulating or do you take your temperature as well?

Can I join pls?!

First cycle, 37 yrs old, already have a five year old. It's taken an awfully long time for me to consider having another but it's suddenly hit me and now I'm desperate to be pregnant.

I used ovulation strips this month, have never used them before but got a dark line on 13th and 14th, no idea when I actually ovulated but I could be 2 or 3 DPO?

I usually have loads of CM on the lead up to ovulation and then right through until period but it seems to have completely dried up which is strange. Not sure what to make of this?!

Trying desperately not to read into every little twinge and I keep checking my nipples, do they look darker etc?

Morning....
No symptoms (not expected so early on) but CM is like gluey egg white (tmi)... That's a good sign isn't it?!

@Suki2020 Good shout. I promised myself I wouldn't test unless I really really felt different or AF was a few days late. My cycle is between 28-30 days anyway so hard to pinpoint exactly. Fingers and toes crossed!!

@mrsmummy111 my cycle is quite long about 35days so I have another 8days until my period is due so I will probably wait until then as I have no other symptoms.

@Wineandrun YES I DID!!! Not until my second trimester though. First trimester I could barely stand to let DH touch me, then second trimester I was like a horny teenager it was outrageous. Then back to normal by third trimester haha 🤣🤣

Could be coming down with something...but could equally be a symptom 

Morning @Suki2020 - oh wow that's very exciting!!! When do you plan on testing!

Morning everyone,
I’m good, had a little cramping on my left side last night, not had that before and I’m now on 9DPO. I had a drop in temp yesterday as well.

Morning @mrsmummy111 and everyone. I’m ok, feel like I’m coming down with something, I’m completely exhausted and lethargic. Could really do without getting CV right now 😂 also having crazy dreams, anyone else who’s been pregnant ever had the weird sex dreams😳?! Not had them yet but hoping I don’t get them again, I couldn’t look my husband in the eye afterwards 🤣

Morning girls, how are you all feeling today? I had more insane dreams last night and I'm sleeping so poorly. Baby woke at 7am today but I woke up twice in the night for ages then I've been up since 6 tossing snd turning. Very annoying.

@Lolliloo1234 I've been trying to work out how on Earth to PM you but it seems you can only do it from the desktop site - but I can't remember my pw! So I'll try and sort it out.

Ahh thanks @Lolliloo1234!
Nothing to vent about yet.. Not sure why I get so hopeful each month as I expected it to take a while.
For what it's worth I've been loosely doing the smep plan- means your dtd over your fertile window and try to aim a few more times regularly over ovulation but it doesn't matter if you miss it as there should be plenty of swimmers waiting there from the days before. Fits in with the advice of my app too so can't harm!

@Lolliloo1234 definitely! I'll PM you 😊
