Our first month ttc our first

@heybabes every day ☺️ I should’ve been taking them anyway really, whether or not we were ttc, I didn’t even consider they’d affect my cycle never mind in a good way!

@Amy259 oooh interesting! Did you take it every day or just up until ovulation? I’d be interested in adding it anyway as I don’t eat fish so miss a lot of fatty acids etc.

@Amy259 What a good approach though to be feeling completely zen about it all at this stage. So you should though, you've done everything you needed to do it's just such an inconvenience this waiting around malarkey. The no symptoms is always a good sign I've heard that from so many people. Only time will tell!! (I'm so sick of hearing that saying but it's so true)

@heybabes it could be complete coincidence but I’ve had 33-35 day cycles all my life (well at least since 14 anyway!) and have been tracking etc since July last year, tried a fair few supplements etc. Then two months ago I added omega 3 to my supplements - not even just for ttc, I’m veggie and figured I’d be deficient which isn’t good in general but also for ttc. Aaaanyway, those two cycles I’ve ovulated 5/6 days earlier, on day 14/15, meaning my cycle last month was 6 days shorter and this month should be the same. Just thought I’d mention, it could be totally unrelated but it’s all I’ve changed.

@meganlea I’m sure that’s totally normal, they say it’s around 6 weeks it all hits you so try not to stress too much. Glad you’ve found that group though, what a great help!

Yeah 8dpo, well remembered! Zero symptoms, not even pre-af symptoms yet - normally by now I’m starting to get super bloated and my boobs slightly tender, but that could arrive any day now. Also have two small chin spots which is really unlike me, but could be unrelated - quite a stressy time just now. I’m weirdly not feeling that crazy about it yet... like I was saying, this cycle I feel oddly accepting of the fact I won’t be pregnant. Don’t even have tests in the house! Which is unheard of, normally I’d start testing at 8/9dpo 😂

Thank you @heybabes, sending lots of baby dust your way!

@beckyBP @Amy259 @meganlea I can't quite believe it yet but I'm absolutely over the moon and feeling so lucky!

Thank you @meganlea for the link 😊

Congrats @Katelyn99 - so nice to see all these pregnancies coming through. Encouraging for a newbie joining this thread 😊

I’m on CD6 so getting into the full swing of my second cycle. Going all out this time - temping every morning when I wake up, taking Evening Primrose Oil & Starflower oil to increase CM, SO is also taking Wellman conception vitamins and I said to myself I’d wait until after this cycle to start, but I caved so I’ve also taken Soy Isoflavones. I’ve heard a lot of success stories for these and I’ve only had 2 cycles under 35 days (with no diagnosed problems like PCOS or anything) for the last 2 years so hoping these will help 😊

@rosiej95 @beckyBP I put it in me, but only a small amount, no more than 1g as it looked like too much lol.

@Amy259 I'm okay thank you, joined a lot of FB support groups so I don't feel alone and that's helping massively. Still not really any proper symptoms at all! Boobs still feel pre AF, frequently urinating but I'm drinking more water now and that's it really. I should be around 16/17DPO right now and nothing ...I'm grateful but worried too.

How are you doing, you'll be around 8DPO now won't you? Bet the weekend can't come quick enough just so you know what's what! xx

A link to a small FB group I found the other day, 112 members atm mostly UK lot, with September 2021 due dates if you want to join, I've found it's a lovely little supportive group so far. xx

@Katelyn99 omg congratulations!! I can see that line from a mile off! How are you feeling?

Ahhh @Katelyn99 congratulations! This is a great thread this month!!

@beckyBP @meganlea how are you pair doing? Xxx

@rosiej95 I honestly think that's what did it for us and also, I didn't put it inside.. we put it on him. 🤷🏼‍♀️

@Katelyn99 yaaaaay! Congratulations doll 🥳🥳🥳 how do you feel? X

@beckyBP Congratulations!

I'm 11/12dpo today and yesterday I thought I saw a vvfl on an IC so I bought a clearblue early detection test to see if I just had line eyes
But today I got my BFP!

Thank you @heybabes and @rosiej95!!

I second that @beckyBP was my first cycle using preseed! Xx

Thanks @rosiej95 it doesn't feel real and I feel super anxious but hopefully that'll go!

Oh Noo! How long until AF finishes? Yes!! Brilliant attitude. Looking forward to lots more BFPs!

I haven't tracked ov for a few months but I think it was preseed that did it for us! Xx

@meganlea ah thanks doll. it didn't work for me! England only! I'll work it out later.

@heybabes thanks hun! Sending you lots of positive vibes! You've got this 💪🏽

Congrats to both pregnancies this week! Amazing news! My AF had just finished - CD4 - so keeping everything crossed for my second cycle and better luck this time! X

@beckyBP I found out this morning that we don't actually have to go through our GP, so you might just be able to avoid that friend! You can refer yourself at your local hospital, it's on the NHS website, just type pregnant NHS and it'll be on one of the first pages, I think you just put your postcode in and it will tell you who/where to ring. xx

@meganlea I was wondering when to call the GP but my friend works there so I don't want to do it too soon 😂

That is crazy though that we're just left to it. I don't know what to bloody do?!

@Amy259 I have got everything crossed for you! You bloody deserve it.

Totally! I think I'll do a few more tests and take it from there.

Thank you again doll. Honestly you've been bloody amazing xxx

@beckyBP and you us, girl! Don't know how I'd have stayed sane without this thread. So thank you!! Can't believe you've just got your BFP! That's 2 this week alone! ....... Lets hope it comes in 3s @Amy259 I've got all of my fingers and toes crossed we need you in this!!!!

Also, do not expect much from you GP appointment, just called them thinking that's what you do and they might prescribe me with some folic acid tablets and give me some advice on how to look after my mind and body for the next 8 months, but no?! The receptionist said 'You only ring the GP if you're ill, I'll give your name and address to the midwife who'll either ring you or send you a letter for your 12 week scan'. Like ....WHAT!!! I need a Dr to hold my hand, I wanted to tell them how bloody petrified I am, I wanted some advice/resources, I wanted the bloody tablets you have to take for the first 12 weeks lol. Looks like I'll be spending the morning researching all of this and getting my own tabs. So confused lol

@beckyBP I need to up my game - you pair are leaving me behind!! 😂😂 fingers crossed some of your good fortune rubs off on me too.

I bet, but I’m sure feeling anxious is totally normally and sadly just part of this wee start bit. So happy for you xx

@Amy259 @meganlea Thanks you girls! I'm
Really happy, super anxious though! I've ordered a load more tests.

You girls have bloody got me through this process. Thank you so so much x

@beckyBP Wow!! That is one solid line!! Congratulations girl!! I'm so happy for you :) How do you feel?? xxx
