Since I'm out for this month... Best chance to try again in a few weeks

Thought we could start a new chat for everyone who could potentially get their bfp in December or try again

Morning December girls. Hoping for some good news in this group 💫 decided this month I will try properly - just finished AF and starting ovulation tests for the first time. Trying for baby number 3. Would be lovely if we all got an extra special little Christmas present 🎁

I've taken a few weeks off the forums but back now! CD17 and just got my positive ovulation test which is 3-4 days late for me, so I'm not holding much hope this month! This is cycle 4 post my most recent miscarriage (took 6 months to conceive that one), my whole TTC saga has been going on years and years yet somehow I still get upset every month when af arrives 🫣

Understandably though.. it's definitely a kick in the back when you see af turn up. Also I'm so sorry to hear about your miscarriage

Hopping on for the first time ever.

We've been trying for baby 2 for about 3 years now. Baby 1 conceived the month after I came off the pill. Baby 2 is a tad more elusive. Had a miscarriage at 8.5 week last March.
I have just got my AF 3 days late after a few bfp so probable chemical pregnancy.

So here we go cd1.

Aw I'm sorry to hear :( fingers crossed for you then this month!
I'm trying for baby number 1 and I'm in the same boat came off the pill about September time so just hoping and trying.
Just started taking my iron/folic acid pills

@Familyfirst12 my wish for everyone on this thread is to not have to go through what I have/am! The dream is for everyone to have their BFPs nice and quickly and have sticky beans!

Chatting in here with people who are also trying can be so helpful xx

Thanks @moosey89 I have quite long cycles (normally over 33 days) so it seems like such a long time to wait if nothing happens this cycle! Very early days though and your journey sounds so difficult so must be frustrating to hear of others so early in their journey getting frustrated! Fingers crossed this becomes a lucky thread for us all! I find it so comforting to have a place to come and chat

moosey89 · 19/11/2023 16:50

For those of you just starting your journey my top tip is find as many ways to distract yourself and keep busy as possible! Yes it's important to take your vitamins, know when you're ovulating etc but in the 'free time' either side of your fertile window do as much fun stuff as you possibly can (and have stuff booked in haha). It can be a long old road and it's good to try and manage stress levels as best you can x

Willow89 · 19/11/2023 12:07

It's 2nd cycle for me also. Only had a 24 day cycle last month. AF came much sooner than expected.

Feeling all consumed by TTC already

NelliePig · 19/11/2023 11:14

Yep, December will be cycle 2 for me for our second. Just got AF today so out for November 😭 x

RWSS · 18/11/2023 23:11

Can I join aswell? I've not finished my p yet so waiting to start. I had a cp last month so not sure how long I have left or when I'm ovulating.

Familyfirst12 · 18/11/2023 21:24

Can I join please? Currently CD13 on first month ttc. Due to ovulate on CD24… all very new to me as was on the pill for 12 years - came off end of August and have tracked my cycles since.

Mama09876 · 18/11/2023 19:12

Can i join! Im in for Dec. I’ve currently got my peak day today and due to ovulate tomorrow but OH is away for Nov so skip this month and hopefully get our positive in Dec! 🤞🏻

How many cycles of trying is everyone at? Dec will be our 3rd cycle trying so still really early but I’m getting impatient 🤣 I got pregnant the 3rd month with our 1st so I’m hoping that’s a bit of luck for Dec 🤞🏻

Favofit · 18/11/2023 16:52

Can I join ? CD1 today and still feeling sad at the arrival of AF today. Need to move forward

Willow89 · 18/11/2023 15:57

I'm in aswell! Currently in my fertile window according to flo app. I'm expecting to get my peak in the next couple of days. Then onto the dreaded tww.
