Hi, I know there are lots of these threads, but thought I would start a new one for anyone new to mumsnet (like me) and doesn’t know which thread to try and join.

I’m 28 years old and I’m on cycle 6. I’m now 6 DPO.

Please anyone feel free to join; it’s nice to have others to go through it with.

@pol96 we were trying for around 5 cycles before my ectopic and I symptom spotted every single month haha, would drive myself insane! Trying a much calmer approach this time but we'll see how long that lasts 🙈

@Nat4392 I’m going to (try to) avoid early testing this month and wait for AF.

@Sausage1990 sorry about your chemical pregnancy. It seems a few of us should be testing around the same time.

@kim160790 ah, this would be perfect timing for your 30th!

@Pol96 welcome! I symptom spotted like mad last month and convinced myself I was so the BFN stung more. It’s difficult not to though 🤦🏻‍♀️

@Rhall26 I think I'll wait to test after AF due otherwise I'll go mad on pregnancy tests 🤦🏽‍♀️. Turning 30 in July so would be nice to have a BFP before then to add to the family.

Can I join please? I'm 8dpo, second cycle trying for #1 and on CD 26. My cycles are normally longer than this one.

@whambam89 constantly symptom spotting here.. Trying not too though as I had it all last cycle but bfn! Baby dust to everyone! Flowers

Hi ladies can I join?
I'm 30yrs old trying for #1. I'm also 6/7dpo in my 4th cycle. Had a chemical miscarriage after the 1st cycle and since then my cycles have been long and frustrating (currently Cd44).

It's nice to be on a thread with people who are all similar to you dpo wise.
Xx

Hi! 🙋🏻‍♀️
I’m 28, cycle #9 for first baby and also 6DPO, no early testing for me though, prefer to wait for AF. Good luck everyone x

@whambam89 Hi! So sorry to hear about your ectopic pregnancy. I haven’t had any symptoms yet which worries me; I’m trying hard not to obsess, but it’s very difficult. Please send some of your relaxed feelings this way 😂

Hi all, I'd love to join too! A bit behind the rest of you at around 2dpo. I had an ectopic in February treated with methotrexate so this is the first month I've been allowed to try again. Have got a 2y DD and am 30 (almost 31) - have any of you had any symptoms yet? I feel surprisingly relaxed about it at the moment but that could all change once I get to a point where it's possible to symptom spot 😂

@bumphope2020 me too. With each new cycle, I find myself getting more impatient waiting to test.

@kim160790 not too long to go before you can test!

Hoping this is all our month x
