Its nearly 2021... the year we start TTC! Anyone else excited?

@TTCnum1 if you’ve missed your peak but still been dtd don’t worry, the best time to dtd is the few days before you OV anyway so that the swimmers are up there waiting for when the egg is released. I used to only dtd when I noticed the surge.

Would a short luteal phase affect me this month. The last 3 months I've been tracking my ovulation has been bang in the middle of the cycle and whatever day I ovulate, the same number of days after I have my period! If that's the case my period will be due in 11 days time

I'm on CD11 and have DTD every day since last Saturday apart from last night as I was exhausted! But today I got my peak on CB monitor!! So I'm hoping my LH surge didn't actually happen last night and I've missed it! I thought I at least had another day until my peak and last month I didn't peak until CD15!!

@Seraphina1993 good luck! I was 10 weeks all up for withdrawal and proper AF and also couldn’t get an OV reading but after first AF it all got more regular and easier to track 👍🏼

@mamaatthegym we are happy you’re TTCing with us. At least we can all obsess to each other haha

Hi all!

We have been having unprotected sex but are going to start trying properly in February, had my last mini pill on the 8th Dec and had a short withdrawral bleed about 2 weeks after that. Just waiting for my 1st proper AF to come so I can start tracking ovulation after that because Flo predictions don't seem accurate. Done several OPK in the last few weeks and all negative. I even did a PG test just to rule it out but BFN - don't know what I was expecting tbh.

Excited and nervous to start ttc properlythough. Having read all the forums on the conception board, I'm a natural worrier so I just assume things could be difficult but at the same time I'm worried it will happen too soon haha

Good luck to all you lovely ladies!

Good luck to us all. @BettyRem that’s exciting your baby would be due 25th September too then! 🙏
@IndigoJam my cycles are 29 days and I ovulate day 16, always get a positive day 15 at midday. CD 14 is the typical date to ovulate so that’s perfect for you!

@BettyRem hope its a good outcome for you too.

@Peadsnurse101 how long are your cycles? This is cd14 for me

@Peadsnurse101 @IndigoJam
I'm also due af 19th
I haven't tracked ovulation or anything just dtd as and when so not expecting anything but still kinda excited
Good luck to you all

Meeee! I can’t believe I’m back in this boat again lol (DD is 13 months)

I’m on CD20, Flo app seems to think I O’d on CD15, FF app seems to think I O’d on CD18, I seem to think I haven’t O’d as had no symptoms and negative OPKs so f**k knows just waiting now and will DTD when I feel like it until AF shows up or not!

@IndigoJam I had 3 days of flashing and then static on day 16 which was exactly the same (by the hour) as last month! Yeah I bought the cheap little sticks for the afternoon one ☝️

Just marking my place

After much discussion DH and I have decided that I’ll come off the pill later this year. It’s my 30th in a few months and I’m really hoping that we can fit in one last holiday beforehand (COVID permitting).

I spent most of 2020 feeling really on the fence about it, but the more I think about it the more excited I get!

@Peadsnurse101 due on 17th so in TWW also 🥱

Got everything crossed for you all 🤞
We have 2 months (2 pill packets) before I can come off it and we can start trying. I'm so excited and curbing my broodiness by following everyone on here 😂

@Peadsnurse101 I'm due on the 19th too.

@Peadsnurse101 after 6 days of flashing I got by static this morning. I only test in the morning with CB. With the price of them I am reluctant to test more than once a day. When did you get your peak?

@IndigoJam any luck yet? LH surge usually happens after 12 midday so try testing in the afternoon too. I tested with clear blue at 8 abs nothing, then tested again at 11 abs positive. Finished fertile window and in 2WW now. Trying not to get my hopes up! Dtd 5 out of 6 days. My Ovia app says baby would be due end of September which is so exciting but such a tease as I know it’s only 38% chance of happening if all is healthy.
How are you all doing? My AF is due on the 19th, anyone else in 2 ww?

I've decided to try ovulation strips just so I know my cycle as well as I can before ttc, don't want to spend a fortune so brought Amazon cheapies maybe that's the problem but the control line is thick and test line thin so makes it hard to tell if it's detected a surge I've not really used them before is this normal? I think I should ovulate either tomorrow or weds.

I've gone straight from low to peak, today is CD 13 so ovulation will be within 48 hours. Last month I ovulated on CD18 so I guess it's just a bit variable.

Another flashy for me this morning. I just assumed cause I ovulate early last month that it would be the same this month but apparently not. Which is good. More time to practice plus I havent had any signs of ovulation yet so I guess we will see.

CD 12 for me today.

Hows everyone else getting on thats trying this month?

@Peadsnurse101 don’t wait for the peak get dtd now!

@JuniperAndTonic
We are the same spring/summer!! Think I will come off the pill in March but we won't be activy trying until the summer :) excited is an understatement xx

Another high for me, just waiting for the peak

Hello, can I join??
Thinking of trying to conceive for the first time this year but probably not until the spring/early summer - we are in the process of moving house and I need to get my second dose of the Covid vaccine first (NHS nurse!).
Happy to see a few others in the same position!!
So excited and can’t stop thinking about it, I’d start trying now if I could haha but husband wants to wait until we’re in our house which I suppose is sensible!

@IndigoJam
I was low today so looks like I’m in the TWW now 🤞🏼😬
