TTC - cycle number 1

I've been waiting for a LONG time for this and now it's finally here we've officially started TTC! I'm currently tracking my ovulation - no sign of peak yet, but due to ovulate any day :)

I'm really excited / nervous about this process. My cycle is around 24-28 days! Anyone else similar and just started trying?

Hello! Yes I am in the same boat too :) I came off the pill on 11 June and ovulated 13 July. I was using test strips too which were really useful. I'm now 9DPO and I don't think it's happened for us this much. I've read that if your cervical mucus starts to dry up around 7DPO it means that your progesterone is dropping (which happens before your period, whereas it goes up if you are pregnant). That's what has happened to me so I am assuming it's a no! It's ok though, it's only cycle 1 and there's always next month :) Like you I've been waiting ages for this and I'm really excited so fingers crossed it happens for us both soon!
