Anyone else about to take the plunge and stop bc pills?

[teachermummy2b]

Ive read another thread with interest about ttc after the pill & saw that a couple of posters were about to stop their bc pills so thought a new thread might be in order!
Im getting married in August & currently finishing my last packet of Yasmin. Excited & nervous all at the same time!

So who's with me?

Xx

Congrats Catnip, that is amazing... :) I have symptoms, trying not to test too early as this could all be in the mind as literally this is cycle 1...
Congrats to all with BFP & fingers crossed for everyone else.

Ooh what symptoms nextchapter?
When are you planning to test?

Sore boobs/that are bigger, No AF, a slight metal taste, not quite right taste-like after a cold & a bit of nausea each day that does fade - these have been building up since Friday, but trying to drag out testing as long as possible. No tests in the house otherwise would have actually tested. If I can wait till Thursday then I have worked out that would make me exactly 5 weeks as AF was 31st July.
This also could be coming of the pill/AF symptoms but it does feel different...

Oh wow. That does sound promising! Fingers crossed! Keep us posted

Oh yeay that would make three of us! Ive got my fingers crossed for u nextchapter and thank you for the good wishes.

first day of my last period was July 29th so that makes me five weeks, due 2nd or 3rd wk in may. at least my bloated belly can be accounted for!

congrats all felling left out of the celebrations but happy for you 3. wishing you all a great pregnancy.

Aww freedom, you will get yours soon, I'm sure! catnip - working on your last period starting on 29th July and potentially with a 36 day cycle (although that might not be accurate) does that make your EDD 13th May?! Have you tried a CB digi to get a timing indication?

How did your DH react?!

Congratulations catnip

Right. Well we now have a Taking the Plunge: Pregnancy Thread over on the antenatal clubs.

Looking forward to seeing more of you ladies come over and join. catnip - you can get yourself over there right now and fingers still crossed for nextchapter too!

Any others due to test soon?!

Thanks littlemiss and *freedom sending big hugs yr way. Sept is your month freedom ive got a good feeling about it.

i haven't done a cb test yet justyouwait but yes i think may 13th is about right. DH was delighted had lots of questions about dating the pregnancy, what the next steps should be for antenatal care etc. I think i need to get him a book or something!

Thanks justyouwait im heading over now!

Great! Were you signed up to the Ovia conception app? If so, it should prompt you to start the Ovia pregnancy app when you tell it you're pregnant. Then there is an option to add in your partner's email so they also get daily emails about what is happening in the pregnancy. My DH loves it, and even booked my midwife appointment for me because a prompt arrived on a day I was working and he was at home!

Eww congrats catnip. Freedom we will have to keep each other company hopefully it will b us soon x

Wow catnip and justyouwait so good to see hubbie and family excited and supporting.

Katybear we'll hold down the fort here for everyone and hopefully we'll jump over to the new thread soon. What a busy month ladies

I did get the ovia prompt justyoywait but haven't clicked to accept yet. Is it useful? DH never checks his emails so i suspect the alerts would go unopened if i did sign him up (men eh!) its a really nice idea though

Forgot to say, thank you katybear were keeping the seats warm for you ladies. You will be graduating before u know it x

Ah thanks catnip here's hoping :-)

Just a quick update from me: I tested today & it was negative, so presume the boobs like rocks & sore is some coming of the pill symptom! Roll on AF...

nextchapter . you can come keep me and katybear company on the TTC Plunge bench and next month we can all jump over together.

no news for me same old same old DTD and waiting. will start ovulation testing next week.

Thank you, I want to start testing for I ovulation, but presume have to wait for AF then test after that?

Hi ladies,
