I thought I'd start a thread for all those who will be starting out TTC this month, I'd be interested to see how other people get on, tips, moral support etc. We'll be starting TTC at the weekend!!
Please join me!

Thanks Ducky. Just hoping it's a sticky bean this time.
Glad it went well with the midwife

Congrats, rainbow! Awesome! I really think I'll get a bfp too this weekend/next week.

kitkatkaty87 · 23/04/2014 15:18

Awesome rainbow!
Glad went ok with the midwife ducky :)

So exciting for you both.
I think i could be on CD 7, but still not sure as bleed only last 12 hours :S
Will dtd tonight again, the conceive plus gel is pretty helpful if anyone is thinking of getting it, not sure about it's effectiveness yet obviously!

Congrats looking4rainbow that's so good to hear!!! :D I keep looking into things far too much!! I've figured out with my last pregnancy I was 17DPO when I got a very faint bfp on asda test. N I tested at 14 DPO and got a stark white negative! So today I am 14 DPO! So test on Saturday and will be 17 DPO!! :D it's given me so much more hope so deffo keeping fingers crossed! AF still not arrived for me :)

Kitkat I would just test a month from when u stopped the pill and just keep testing every other day :) good luck!

Cupcake92 · 23/04/2014 15:23

p.s. HURRY UP SATURDAY!! Lol!

kitkatkaty87 · 23/04/2014 15:27

Rainbow such amazing news!!! Yay! Xx
I'll be testing this weekend when I'll be 15dpo so we shall see. I'm not sure if I've done it this month or not. I've had mild cramping today and yesterday...I expected AF to come early but she didn't! Bbs are not so sore today though??
Ducky how exciting. I bet the midwife made it so real. This will be my first so I've not idea what to do if I do get that BFP!
Hopefully we'll have lots of BFP's after this weekend on our little thread :-)

Imustbecrazy26 · 23/04/2014 18:02

Kitkat I was wondering that too as I have no idea on my cycles yet with only just coming off the pill this month I am on cycle day 14 and have been dtd every other day since cd8! I haven't brought any tests yet so will hold out and treat it as a cycle of 28 days it would be nice to get my BFP bfore we go on honeymoon!!

Congrats to thoses with BFP!

Ducky23 · 23/04/2014 18:17

It's crazy :) should have my dating scan in 2 - 3 weeks to confirm due date Smile

Crazy - your doing the right thing with not having any tests in the house! I constantly kept poas, must have wasted so much money, poas at like 2dpo ha Smile

Imustbecrazy26 · 23/04/2014 18:20

That is exactly why I'm not getting then yet ducky!! I keep thinking ill order some cheap ones but I know I'll be come an addict and it will just stress me out!!

Cupcake92 · 23/04/2014 18:27

Omg I think all the painting is about finished!!
I just have to clean the whole flat by tomorrow afternoon and then it's done! All ready for us to move out and let someone else rent it!
I'm exhausted.
But omggggggggg I want to test ! Hahaha

kitkatkaty87 · 23/04/2014 18:28

Let me know how you get on imustbecrazy. Will be interesting to see if you get a bfp!! I am going to test on 11th May I think as that's a month. I bought 2 tests in super drug the other week but will save them :)

Exciting about the dating scan!!!!

Ducky23 · 23/04/2014 18:28

Well done cupcake! Smile

Moving house is bloody stressful! As is tryin not to pee on bloody sticks! Confused

kitkatkaty87 · 23/04/2014 18:29

Well done cupcake. We were painting fences all weekend and it is so tiring! Good luck with your move

kitkatkaty87 · 23/04/2014 18:30

Imustbecrazy what did you count as cd1? Day after withdrawal bleed or day after stopping pill? I get confused! :)

looking4rainbow · 23/04/2014 18:33

It sounds like we have Fx for more bfp this weekend. This thread is looking lucky Wink

Defiantly understand the poas addict I just poas with a digital lol need to stop now!

alizeeod · 23/04/2014 18:38

This is my first month off the pill. Last day I took it was April 1, withdrawal bleed started April 4 and lasted a week. I'm going to test 28 days after the first day of withdrawal bleed so May 1. Just thought I'd tell you what my plan is, ladies who just got off the pill. Our natural cycle is bound to be irregular and messed up for a while so who knows what is the best thing to do...

Ducky23 · 23/04/2014 18:43

What pill were you on Ali?

Rainbow was it positive? Digitalsare expensive!!! Grin

Imustbecrazy26 · 23/04/2014 18:47

I'm not going to test till the 8th may that when af is due if it was a 28 day cycle! So going to keep doing the dtd till then as trying not to stress bout opks and cm just yet! Well if I can keep it up lol!

I agree moving house is stressful!

Imustbecrazy26 · 23/04/2014 18:49

Kitkat I counted cd1 as first day of withdrawal bleed

Cupcake92 · 23/04/2014 19:00

Can't believe ur going to have a scan soon Ducky that's so exciting will make it all real! :D
And yes moving is the most stressful thing ever!
We've only been in the flat a year waiting till we got our house, and I was heavily pregnant when we moved last year and all the stress and moving and getting exhausted brought on early labour at 32 weeks lol!
But yes I'm deffo an addict of poas :/ if it weren't raining right now me and DS would be off to asda to buy some tests!

kitkatkaty87 · 23/04/2014 19:00

Ok that's what I have done as well. We'll both be testing that same sort of time next month then must be crazy!

I hope this is a lucky thread!

BearsInMotion · 23/04/2014 19:08
