I'm a lurker on the Conception and Baby Names threads as we've decided that we will be TTC next Spring :)

We get married in January and then once back from honeymoon end of Jan I'm coming off the pill to regulate my cycles... then hopefully TTC after a month or two depending on how quickly my body gets back to normal (fingers crossed!) Also to overcome before patter of little feet is getting an extension done to our house to give us a better kitchen (currently it's teeny and a nightmare), upstairs bathroom and baby's nursery!

I can't be the only person getting excited but waiting to TTC in the Spring? Hoping to find some others to chat with, as I'm currently driving DMum and DP a bit mad with my baby chat...!

Ah exciting NewGirl2015
I had the implant for about 6 years until last summer when I had it taken out due to continuous spotting that was driving me mad. So we've just been using condoms ever since until we decided the time was right.
I'm going to start taking folic acid next month and I've downloaded Ovia to try and start tracking and making sense of my cycles
The only thing keeping us from ttc sooner is a snowboarding holiday in March that we've had booked for a year! I'm soooo broody it's driving me a bit loopy!

Hello all, could I join you please?!
We're going to be TTC #3 in February (we're going on a Valentines break to Prague so starting there!) There will be a 10 year age gap between this one and my other DCs so feels like starting over again. It's so exciting. I'd really love to have others to chat to about it as I'm driving DH bonkers with baby talk!

Good to hear that there's like minded broody people out there

OP are you still around?

I've started taking boots folic acid with vit d and have been off the pill for a few years as it was giving me headaches. I think it took me around 3 months for my cycles to settle and I'd been on the pill for 12 years

marzipancustard so exciting for you! The wedding must be getting really close now? Enjoy the run up to it, it goes so fast!

I totally know what you mean... Every time a friend or family member announces they're pregnant (and at the moment it feels like everyone is!) I am so excited and over the moon for them but the green eyed monster goes wild! I'm going to have to keep it under control until March !!!

Hi, everyone. I'm new here, just registered today. I will be ttc sometime next year, probably taking my IUS out at the end of next summer. I am nervous about it, though, because I just started a new job in early October. Unfortunately we don't want to wait too much longer as we have already been delayed by about 2 years in ttc. I'm just hoping my manager understands.

Hi everyone! Hope you don't mind me saying hello but we are also going to start TTC in march. It seems like forever away but there are silly valid reasons for waiting. I'm already a little bit obsessed. Glad I've found a WTT thread!

marzipan hope you enjoyed your hen do!

Congrats on the job lucylou!

nora I'm sure your manager will be fine, try not to worry about it.

I'm hoping to start trying in Jan so it's all feeling very real now

mini I've not had any recent pregnancy announcements amongst my friendship group and all previous ones were when making babies was the last thing on my mind so I haven't experienced this. Just think very soon you'll be announcing your own pregnancy

roguish it more than likely will. I need to hold out til march although it won't be the end of the world if it happens before .

guest it will also be #3 for us and after a lot of tooing and froing one day it hit me and never went away! All systems go now as I've just come off the pill (with the aim to be careful until at least Feb) how did you come about the third?
