TWW officially begins!!!!!

AF due 13th May and have no idea of how I'm going to wait that long!

This is our first cycle TTC baby #1 and since we have decided to try I have been very anxious. I just want this to happen, my close family have all had fertility issues and I've convinced myself I will too.

Just thought I'd start thus for support for all wanting some words if encouragement.

DH is booked in for a sperm check in January and I'm going to get basic bloods done then too. No harm in just checking to see if there are any major problems- earlier we find out then the earlier we can deal with them.

I'm glad there's a treatment they can do - it must be a relief for you.

And you never know about this month! I'm starting to look on the bright side about not being pregnant over Christmas though so if you're not this month you can enjoy the food and wine too!

How is the wedding planning coming along? We had a menu tasting at the weekend and everything went really well. Yum!

Thanks for the advice london. I have to admit that I very much doubt I'll be having sex during AF though!! Try to relax and enjoy being pregnant if you can! Have you been to see you doctor yet?

London I remember that feeling of keeping expecting to see blood when you go to the loo. Hopefully your symptoms will appear soon so you would feel more reassured.

soda good that you've got those tests booked in the new year. Yes, enjoy your xmas. Have all the cheeses and wine you like without a worry.

Wedding planning is going quite well. We have now decided on our menu and wine. Going to pick cheeses over Xmas, I guess. My dress has arrived!! Going for fitting in January so can't pig out too much during the festive season.

I'm now CD24 (my cycle is usually 26 days but this one seemed a bit strange). Was planning to wait till CD26 b4 I poas as we hardly DTD during the fertile period and definitely not on ov day. But failed to resist this morning. BFN. A bit disappointed but am also not sure I'm ready to get a BFP. I know I would get super anxious about losing it again that I won't be able to function...

How are you doing gakay? Did AF arrive?

I got a positive OPK day (CD14) but I got a low on my clearblue fertility monitor this morning! So no idea what's going on! Luckily we DTD last night and going to again tonight.

I've also booked in for blood test and an ultrasound in January - GP was good about referring me even though we having been TTC a year yet.

Glad wedding planning going well. I'm also slightly worrying about pigging out over Christmas- our wedding party is 6 weeks after and need to fit into my wedding dress again!

Last day of work tomorrow before Christmas break and I'm so looking forward to some time off. Are you having a nice break?

Hi soda. AF came yesterday and very heavy. I'm taking it as a good sign and was worried that my lining wasn't thick enough b4 but the latest mc seems to have changed it for the better apart from the last one - that may be cos of the biopsy...

Yes CBFM can be quite confusing. It takes some time to get to "know" you and sometimes you can miss your peak as it tends to happen in the afternoon and you test in the morning with CBFM. Good you are doing normal OPK as well.

My last day is on Saturday and its gonna be a horrible 24 hours work especially as we are 1 person down... anyway, I'll have my 2 weeks break to look forward to after that.

DP has just come home from being a week away - am so happy.

Sorry AF came gakay but glad you're feeling upbeat. And lovely to have DP home. Hope your last day of work goes ok today and then you can relax and enjoy your break!

We've just arrived at my parents after a long drive. We're here now until Boxing Day when we head to DH's family so really looking forward to a nice break.

Pretty sure I ovulated yesterday - got a temp rise this morning and my positive OPK on Thursday - so just waiting for FF to confirm. This is despite just having low readings on the CBFM! If I did ovulate yesterday then we DTD on all the right days and it didn't feel forced this month as I didn't tell DH where I was in my cycle which worked well for us. So you never know I guess, it would be lovely to have a nice NY surprise!
