I came off the pill between Christmas and NY ready to TTC DC2 Smile

I'm very excited! But trying to relax and just see how it goes - I'm not temping or using OPKs or peering at the calendar every day to see when I should be ovulating Grin

DC2 is almost 3 so I've been back on the pill 2.5 years. Only took 6 weeks to fall pregnant last time but I'm aware my cycles could be irregular this time, and it may take longer.

Other threads I've joined seem to focussing around OPKs and early testing but I'm not doing that (no disrespect to anyone who is, it's just not for me!) I'm focussing on eating healthily, exercising regularly and chilling out.

Anyone else out there the same?!

@2021ComeAtMe me too!! I'm far too forgetful to do OPK's. It will be my first baby yes, I had a miscarriage at 13 weeks in October and decided we would start trying again in the new year! Will this be your first?? A few changes... cut down on alcohol and started exercising more and I'm back on folic acid. Have you?

@ploopypleepy I'm so glad I've got a friend on here Grin thought I was the only one in the world not temping/using OPK's!

Will this be your first baby? Have you made any lifestyle changes?

I'm doing exactly the same, currently having a withdrawal bleed. I had a miscarriage in October and this time I'm staying relaxed, just using Flo to see when I'm ovulating. Fingers crossed for us both to stay calm and get our bfp. Grin
