TTC #1 coming off the pill in December - anyone else in the same boat?!

[shelbTa]

Hi,

I am going to be coming off the pill after ten years plus on it after my pack finishes in December. Excited but also terrified about what my body is going to do once I'm without all the hormones!

Anyone else doing the same roughly the same time?

(Hope this goes through struggling to post)

Sorry you're out Deb

Off to work now. Will check back later. Fingers crossed for some good news on a miserable November Tuesday!

Just had another look at today's test now that it's dry. There is definitely a feint line which is about the same as yesterday's so I'm not going completely crazy. I suppose as its 10mlu even if the hgc in my body did double that wouldn't necessarily make the levels that high.

I may go slightly crazy between now and testing tomorrow

Omg congratulations bergamot that's amazing!!!!! that is a definite line!

Ah runner - see what the FR test does, I'm really crossing my fingers for you. New thread - do you mean cos we've had so many posts?

Unlucky Deb :-(.

My withdrawal bleed is due today, joy.

Good luck all I'm so excited for you . I'm getting excited for my period so I can crack on with it . I'm getting the usual cramps so it should be here by the end of the week, then I shall mark it on the calendar as I'm awful and never remember what date my last one was! My youngest child turned 3 on the weekend and this will be my bigger age gap, I have 3.5 yrs, 3.2yrs and 2.5yrs I'm hoping for a august/September baby girl

Yep Shelb threads only allow 1000 posts and we're over 950

Since there's several tcc busses I suggest we become the "ttc#1 Boat"

I know I'm not ttc #1 but hope you guys still don't mind me tagging on? I don't post much as I don't have much time but am following all posts

Can one of you ladies please tell me to stop looking at pregnancy tests after the time has expired!!!!

I caved and used my only FRER earlier as I was upset about the result. At the time there was a line of I held it to the light but nothing visible otherwise. But about an hour later and there's now a clear pink line... I've used FRER tests before and never had a line develop later before

Why couldn't I have just waited until the weekend to test like a sensible person instead of testing far too early like a obsessive mental case???

Sorry Nan cross posted

I certainly don't mind you hanging out her and I'm sure no one else does either but I do come onto this thread to gain the support of others going through the same experiences as me on the ttc#1 journey.
I also join in on a couple of mixed ttc groups but it's not the same as speaking with people going through the same fears, doubts and mental breakdowns as me

Oh runner I don't know what to advise! Can you post a pic? It's so tricky isn't it.

Runner - I've heard it's impossible to get a coloured evap line so if it's pink it could be positive. How long did you hold your wee for because it was probably fairly dilute? Could you try hold it for 4/5 hours and test again later? You must be spending a fortune on tests!

I dug all my old ones out the bin last night and they were clearly blank, no lines at all so that made me hopeful about the test that only showed a line after an hour last night. I barely slept so know what you're feeling.

Can you go buy another (2/3) FRER?

Bergamot luckily I haven't spent that much as I had a stash ready that I'd bought from the Internet. Plus it's worth it

Interesting about the coloured lines as mine have all been clearly red... Guess I'll have to wait and see tomorrow as there's no way I could hold my wee for 4 or 5 hours... I struggle enough with holding it 2! The FRER was done after a couple of cups of tea so you may well be right.

I shall try a FRER tomorrow. damn you body and your mocking ways!!

Berg that's so sooooo exciting! CONGRATULATIONS! what a week guys! A proposal and a bfp!

runner STOP looking at tests! At least until tomorrow!

Shall I start a new thread for us?

New thread for us.

Stopped the pill 1st December when I got my period(or whatever the bleeding is you get on the mini pill) strictly not TTC but not not trying to TTC.

Would love to fall pregnant quickly! Very broody

Hi feefeefs
This thread was almost full so a new thread was created, the link to it is below.

Most of us who weren't going to Ttc until after Christmas have started and some have even had their BFP already. X
