Am 29, TTC 1, cycle #1... After much silent stalking of threads on here and research DH and I have this week just decided to start trying. Very excited and also a little bit nervous about this (potentially) long journey we've just started out on!

Roll on 7th May... anyone else in a similar boat/care to join me? Smile

Hi this is my 1st time TTC and I am hating this TWW! I am also turning every little thing into a symptom. . Feel like a crazy person! AF is due on 10th so hopefully she won't come and i'll get a BFP! Don't think I can wait that long to test though!

Monkeybubbles1 · 03/05/2014 09:08

After some almost invisible lines on Ic stripse, a bleed which I thought was af on its which made me think I was out this month, I finally got my BFP on a clearblue digi this morning. In utter shock, I'd given up.

Anyone else about to start their TWW?

YoniLive0nce · 04/05/2014 18:07

Congrats monkey!

I've just bought a load of internet cheapies ready for testing next week! (Naughty because it's still early but can't help myself!) Grin

YoniLive0nce · 05/05/2014 19:19

Anyone else getting obsessive with a bfp with each passing hour!! Why why am I getting like this?!!

greenolive · 06/05/2014 12:03

Hello, I'm on 2ww just now, am 7 dpo. Am having my usual pmt symptoms though (breast tenderness, hunger, irritability, fatigue) so thinking I'm probably not pregnant? :(, good luck to everyone

Beansprout30 · 06/05/2014 13:15

Hmm no signs of af today am normally like clock work but could be the b complex vits I've been taking delaying things. Good luck all x

YoniLive0nce · 06/05/2014 19:19

That's good bean

So... After deciding I didn't want to wait until 12th May to test (mostly because of symptoms), I just got my BFP! I can't actually believe it! I was diagnosed with PCOS in my early 20s but lost weight & went on pill to regulate AF,and this was my 1st month of ttc Shock

Still early though so I'm keeping fingers crossed...

Beansprout30 · 06/05/2014 19:41

Yaay!!! Well done yoni that's fantastic news!!

1moretime · 06/05/2014 21:42

impatientlywaiting14 · 06/05/2014 22:20

Welcome greenolive fingers crossed you never know x

Hi Beansprout keeping my fingers crossed x

Yoniliveonce woww congratulations :)

What were your symptoms? I have been having symptoms though trying not to get hopes up, as i have ibs which could cause many of these symptoms. Since i wrote about my existing symptoms on 2nd may i have also had a strange taste appear in my mouth twice. I thought i also had it today making it the 3rd time but am unsure.

Symptoms, in order i first noticed them (i think) since about mid last week:

bloating
cramping
needing to pee more
increased thirst
feeling sick when going to eat
tiredness
dull ache/ feeling of pressure
flatulence/burping
sore throat
sensitive/sore nipples

I am on cd24 11dpo (i think, Got a postive opk on cds 13,14,&15). I have had 3 natural cycles since coming off the pill. Cycle#1 was 28 days Cycle#2 27 days Cycle#3 29 days so i think im due between the 9th-11th of May. I did a IC 10ml test this morning was negative. What do you ladys think?

Beansprout30 · 06/05/2014 22:34

Sounds promising impatiently waiting with the symptoms, fingers crossed for you too xx

impatientlywaiting14 · 06/05/2014 22:49

Thanks beansprout :) I told my other half the first time i had the strange taste as he was in the room when it happened. I was hungry, so he put to that lol. I do get bloating regularly with the ibs although this has been constant since about mid last week, i look rather rounded.

I am generally tired, this is usally Endo related as i have that. Sore throat is most likely hayfever. The cramping was around Wenesday/Thursday i think so would have been about 5-6dpo. The dull pressure was there friday and felt af like but was a bit early as due around this weekend. I have had the familar feelings of aching like Af is on its was since yesterday. hmmm

CanIReallyDoThis · 06/05/2014 23:41

Right I am going to stop lurking and join in!

TTC #1, first cycle, 3 DPO. Was approaching this all relaxed and when it happens it happens and then found MN and am totally obsessed! My OH is already totally bored of listening to me and trying to ban me from MN! Smile
