Feeling lonely TTC

I'm not sure what I'm looking for from this post really! My partner and I have started TTC, I stopped taking my pill at the start of July and I just have no one to talk to about it. I talk to my partner and he listens and is great support but doesn't seem like enough. I think about it all the time, ovulation tests, pregnancy tests, are my boobs sore, making excuses about why I'm not drinking, doing tons of research etc etc

Also have loads of questions - still haven't had a period. How often do I take a test, I could have a period soon, or maybe I'll be pregnant before getting a period so how would I know, so I should take them regularly? Feel I shouldn't waste a GPs time but I wish I could ask questions to someone who knows their stuff

I'm not looking for answers here, just feels like this is a huge thing that's always on my mind and I have no one to talk to about it. Don't want to tell friends in case I have trouble TTC and even if I did tell them none of them are thinking about having children anytime soon. Have any of you felt the same?

Why don't you join the conception board? You can discuss TTC til your hearts content there.

Don't bang on about it too much to your DP. Tends to reduce their desire. Vent in private on the TTC boards.
Plus it's v early days for you

Head over to the Conception board and start a thread with your questions. You'll find women there in the same position as you.

Good luck
