First cycle of TTC #1 ... new to everything, saying hello!

[wishfuldreaming]

Hello there! =]

I am very excited at the moment and just wanted to join in and make some TTC buddies and get up to speed on how everything works.

Bit of info about us.

Together 2 years, TTC #1 for both of us. I'm in mid twenties, he's mid thirties. Came off my depo BC a while ago with the intention of starting trying - had my first AF since at the beginning of this month. DTD a few times over the weekend which theoretically would've been around standard OV times - and think I got some OV pains Thursday / Friday so may have been too late, who knows.

Trying to educate myself in relation to my cycle length and OV pattern as was on depo so long that I can't even remember! Learning all about temping and such from reading these friends.

Now doing my first ever 2WW and hoping naively for a BFP first time around.
I'm literally bursting with excitement about it all. We're not telling any friends or family that we are TTC just yet as it's still early days and we don't want to jump the gun so i'm just about ready to scream haha, hence the venting thread!

Anybody else out there new to TTC who wants to be excited and nervous and bouncy with me? Big sticky BFP wishes to everyone xxxxx

Hi!
Me too.
Been on the pill for 16 years so no idea what my cycles were like. Dreading if I do get my first proper AF as they were horrendous and made me very ill which is why I was on the pill in the first place. I downloaded the Ovia app to get some sort of idea and put in standard cycle length.

I had my withdrawal bleed as normal when I stopped the pill.
On Ovia it said ovulation date was 25th Sept. I had the very very wet mucus from Friday ongoing now. Saturday night through to now I have a bad lower back on the left and really bad stomach cramps :(. May be ovulation a few days later than thought?? I am not sure but I haven't felt right since coming off of the pill, a little uncomfortable.

We will see what happens. DTD Fri/Sat. Partner is working away Mon-Fris at the moment so a little difficult!

Good luck!

Hello both,

I'm 26, partner 30 & we're TTC#1

I took my last pill late August & had normal withdrawal bleed few days after. Since then I had ov tingles on usual time but zero AF. I'm on CD33 & have felt like AF is coming for a full week but zero sign yet, even had temp dip on day due. Both ov & preg test negative. Ovia says profilerative phase has started again so testing ov each night now.

Just want a proper period so we can start! Feel sluggish too so would be nice to have that emotional relief AF seems to bring

Good luck to all!
