Anyone want to join me?

I'm 36 yo, ttc #1 and very excited about it. It's something I have wanted to do for a long time but it took me a while to find mr right!

l know I am no spring chick so I have some anxieties around that but I am trying to do everything right (eating well, exercising, cutting out alcohol/caffeine etc) and I want to start off optimistic :) am a seasoned pessimist/worrier!

Have been tracking my cycle for a good while. My periods are pretty regular and I thought I could feel my ovary twinging (strongly) when it wad supposed to. This has synched with positive opks so I guess I will soon be starting my first 2ww.

Good luck happygojo. If you can hang on, I can recommend the cheapie test strips. A few months ago when I needed them they were selling 3 for 89p in Home Bargains :)

Went to sainsburys bought wine, chocolate;, steak and a pack of 2 home preg tests... af is due on Sunday/Monday so I am 11 dpo and I only went and got a BFP didn't I! It is faint and it is very early days. It was just an own brand one so going to get a clear blue digital one tomorrow me thinks. I am in total shock. ... and my boyfriend gets the wine! I have been spotting so not getting excited yet. Also have mild cramps. He told me he had super sperm but this is fricking ridiculous!

Hi everyone. OP here after a few months out (post mc).

Nice to see the BFPs!!

I'm currently on cd29 waiting for AF. Took a hpt yesterday, BFN, so don't think it's my month!

Fingers x for everyone :)

Hi everyone
Newbie here, help & advice welcome & much needed! Copper coil removed 1st oct also was first day of AF too. ttc #2 but due on Af today just usual symptoms but it's not arrived yet and had several sensitive BFN :( anyone had similar ? Xx

Can I join please? I'm brand new and pretty clueless. I've been off cerazette for 11 days now. Absolutely no sign of any hormonal changes. I thought I have some ovary pain about 8 days after stopping that lasted about 2 hours but nothing since and no sign of a withdrawal bleed either.

We are 'taking it easy' at the moment so no OPKs, temping or charting. Just regular DTD and hoping for the best. Must admit though, I'd quite like to know what's happening in there.

Welcome ladies :)

I wasn't on the pill or coil before ttc, so can't help with your questions, but hopefully some of the other ladies on this thread can.

Only 8 weeks to go for me now, but keep coming back to check on this thread to see how people are getting on.

Good luck!
