Anyone else TTC #1? Just looking for TTC buddies!

@kalixxx heya! I'm 4dpo today so still a while off anything happening although am interested to see if my usual spotting comes on 6dpo now that I had that cervix treatment! I have used pre seed for the last 2/3 cycles including this one and I also used the fertilily this cycle for the first time

@kalixxx hey, 7 dpo here, on and 6dpo had a uti feeling, during and after peeing slight hurting in my bladder, and needing to pee more often. This is all gone today so I doubt it is related with tww symptoms meh. Don't feel preggo, probably stil early but it has been long 6 cycles ttc and am getting discouraged.
Good idea with preseed, I will try next cycle as well.
Good luck girls 😘

@kalixxx I'm 11dpo, all tests have been stark negative, all symptoms have disappeared. So just waiting on AF to arrive on Friday & just wait for new fertile window which is predicted on the first 5 days of my holiday which I'm hoping I do ovulate around then so we have nothing to get in the way of baby dancing.
I ordered Macca root late last night so giving that a go as soon as it arrives. Feeling hopeful for May! 💜
Let's bring on some positives in May 🎉👶🏻✨

@Nmmck93 glad to hear it! Keeping everything crossed that this is our cycle 🤞🤞🤞

@BexTTC oh so much better; lots of symptoms and 8DPO (BFN this morning) but not giving up hope yet.

I feel like this TWW is dragging so badly for me lol.

@kalixxx I'm sorry to hear AF showed, keeping everything crossed for next cycle 🤞🤞

@Nmmck93 how're you feeling now? Better I hope

I'm 4dpo and have had random cramps all day yesterday and today, constant mild headache, super hungry and very achy everywhere, it's so hard not to symptom spot 🙈 but I think it just can't be helped

@kalixxx ow so sorry to hear AF showed 😔 hope you can take your mind off it over the bank holiday weekend ! Xx

@kalixxx oh I'm so sorry that AF showed up! 😢 what a bugger she is.

Thank you, I'm 7dpo today lots of symptoms but not sure if it's with being I'll or possible pregnancy.
It's consuming all my thoughts right now. 🙈

@kalixxx I know! It's shocking, think sick pay is shocking & also the fact Endometriosis isn't classed as a chronic Illness, I was diagnosed over 10 years ago and I couldn't hold a job longer than a few months because I was so bad with it, then had two surgeries and would still have flare ups but any company I worked for literally just gave me warnings despite having doctors notes and records.
I'm hoping one day it'll be seen as a chronic invisable illness where it is seen as a plausible abscence.

Thankfully I haven't had much trouble in the last few years with it.

Aw I'm with you feeling that this month isn't mine either but I hold out hope for us all that AF stays away for 9 months. 🤞🏻

@kalixxx aw I know lol! Apart from what I said I'm feeling great now thankfully! Actually went back to work today because 1. I don't get full sick pay 2. Being off work for just those two days where soul destroying.

Is AF late or due tomorrow? Still holding up hope for ya. 🤞🏻

6DPO -

everything taste like perfume, nausea & acid reflux. Can only stomach small amounts of food & having cramps & my fizzy juice (Coke Zero) is not agreeing with me.

i’m symptom spotting but I don’t know if it’s a waste of time or is it just my body on the mend from the Illness, wish I could have got this during AF week so I wasn’t second guessing myself 😂

@kalixxx yeah that was my thinking as well, even without the spotting I would just want to check the basics are okay like sperm and eggs! Really hoping it stops me overthinking stuff so much! Xx

@Nmmck93 glad to hear you are a bit better now and I'm still crossing my fingers for you that there's still a chance for this month! If not what a nice way to know you'll be spending your holiday! Xx

Hi everyone;
Thank you so much for your well wishes.
I had a really bad infection that attacked bascially my entire abdomen so have been on an IV antibiotic and fluids & getting released this evening.
Doctor has told me that not to get my hopes up with getting a positive this month as the infection was so bad! But I'm not one to give up hope yet as I'm 5DPO!

The only thing about next month is my whole fertile week is when I'm away on holidays so we'll have plenty of DTD as neither of us will be working and just being by a pool and in the room etc so if this month isn't mine we're going to give it the best shot next month!

Hope you are all doing good!
Those with BFN - you aren't out until AF shows, remember that. Positive vibes & baby dust! 💜

@kalixxx yes let's hope it's a lucky number! My appointment was okay, basically they definitely just think it's my cervical ectropion causing the spotting so they treated it with silver nitrate. Will be interesting to see if my spotting comes back on 6dpo this cycle! I personally just can't shake the feeling it's something else as just very strange how clockwork the spotting is if it was the cervical ectropion along with other symptoms. My GP bloods came back normal but I decided to pay for a transvaginal ultrasound which is next week just to put my mind at ease about the spotting (although if it is endo I don't think it will show anyway :/) the scan also includes an AMH test and DH sperm analysis which will be interesting to find out anyway :) xx

@Bluebell0921 energy definitely needed for this week 😂 we couldn't SMEP this month as my silver nitrate treatment needed to heal but starting every other day now and will do more when I get my peak! Also using the fertilily this month which seemed to do its job well when testing yesterday in terms of keeping everything there ahah xx

@kalixxx totally feel the same. I’m not desperate to be pregnant this second but it’s the not knowing @Piglet34 is so right. It’s the uncertainty which makes you assume worst case scenario. Be gentle with yourself, it’s ok to feel disappointed.

good luck for your fertile week @Piglet34 sending you lots of energy for DTD. Great to be here to connect with you all 😊

@Nmmck93 really hope you are doing okay today! That sounds so scary :( sending lots of well wishes xxx

@Bluebell0921 welcome to the thread, I've been a bit MIA on here recently but super good luck for your cycle! I'm in the same boat with no other friends trying so I feel like no one around me really understands , so nice to have this chat :) also cycle 5 for me too but I'm in fertile week, so let's hope this is it for both of us! xx

@kalixxx ow I'm so sorry to hear about your bfn 😔 its so true about what you say, if we all knew it was defs guna happen even if it was a year away I'd be a lot happier than this uncertainty. Sending hugs to you, this process is the worst which is ironic as I thought it was going to be so fun! Ha xxx
