Hi all, AF graced me with her presence this morning... after what I thought were some promising cramps/light bleeding over the weekend. (It was just my mind playing tricks on me but so glad I waited it out, I think a negative test might have upset me a little) Made a note of all my symptoms, so I know what to expect next month, in case it's a no again.

We will be going again for cycle 2 in around 2 weeks time if anyone is in the same boat and is looking for support?

We haven't told many people we've started trying for our 1st baby, so I'm desperate to chat with someone else going through it.
Good luck to you all ♥️

@flowerlover1990 Thank you. AF still not here but still BFN on tests. I never thought I'd be willing AF to hurry up so I can move on to the next cycle.

@BudgetBuster Of course 😊. I'm so sorry to hear about your miscarriage in November, that must be so tough. Hope you are taking care of yourself? Sending some luck your way, it must be your turn next 🤞🏻🍀

Joining you guys thus month. AF was due today but taking her time. Took a test and it was a glaring BFN. TTC #1. Been trying since last April and had a miscarriage in November.

The next cycle will be here before we know it and we can go again. Sounds like you were lucky with your first 2, so hopefully you have 3rd time lucky too 🤞🏻🍀 Yeah we I don't think we dtd as much as we should have this month lol so we're trying the SMEP method this time... have you heard of it?

No more bleeding since but honestly dont think it's my month :( and no not really, first pregnancy decided mid cycle to try and 2 weeks later was pregnant lol. Second pregnancy took 3 cycles but didn't do anything in particular the month I was successful except dtd more lol

@Lexie365 Ah keep me posted. All might not be lost this month. It's crazy how much your brain plays tricks on you! Wow baby 3, that's amazing. Will keep everything crossed for you. Is there anything that you feel helped with your first 2 which you'll be trying again this time?
