Hello all, can I join?

Currently on cycle 1 of TTC#1. Came off pill last October after 8 years but periods seem to have settled into something of a recognisable pattern - just longer and lighter that used to but I'm not too worried.

I've not gone down the OPK route yet but have a batch in a cupboard if needed after a couple of cycles. Using Ovia as main guide and am currently CD16 and in fertile window so DTD as much as possible this week and early next week. Not getting my hopes too high for first cycle but it's reassuring knowing there are many of us in the same boat.

Sorry AF got you, Jj, but glad you had a much shorter cycle than you expected and you can now get back to ttc. Would have been horrible to have this cycle last ages.

Bang goes my decision not to symptom spot. Just found out that a cold/stuffy nose around 9dpo (roughly where I am) can be a common early pg symptom. But I did get soaked the other day so not getting my hopes up - it could well be just a cold! Xx

Hi Lingo! Me, Jackie and Sarah are all on cycle 1 (I think?). Welcome 😊

From what I can make out I think I'm on cd7. I'm straight in from stopping the pill tho, didn't have a break between coming off and ttc.

Good luck with the fertile window!!

Can I join please? I'm on cycle 1 TTC #2. I came off the pill on the 28th July and didnt want to have a break so we've just dived straight in there. With DD, we convinced on our first cycle but not getting my hopes up too much.

*concieved

Welcome to all the lovely newbies!!! I will update the list and add you all in the morning 😄 X

Anyone else starting the dreaded 2ww in the next few days? According to ovia I can test in 16 days, I'm going to try my best to wait until AF is actually late though which will be more like 18-20 days I think (we'll see if that works!). It doesn't help that I'm off work at the moment for school holidays so I haven't even got that to distract me!

I am fairly sure I am still in my fertile window for another day or so, so continuing to DTD as often as possible over next few days, I will be waiting to see if AF arrives around 26/27 Aug - fingers crossed but only month 1 of TTC!

Wow loads of newbies!! Welcome all and good luck!!!

I haven't come on yet but I think the witch is teasing me! Sorry for tmi but I had like really light brown tinged cm yesterday and today (not every time I went to the toilet though ). Although I never usually get this before she shows up. Getting all other usual symptoms of AF. Just wish she'd come so I know where I stand!!

Aww that sucks Lou! You're not quite out yet though so fx!

Thanks bobo 😀

I'm still waiting for AF to rear her ugly head after my m/c - it's been almost 6 weeks now!
Welcome to all the newbies - hope we see some more BFPs soon.

I've just got rid of ovia and glow and ditched the btb for now and am going to have a relaxed few cycles. My cycles are regular and I get ewcm around cd15 so just going to dtd regularly. I don't think I'm getting anything out of using the apps except added stress.

*bbt

highopes do you think you've ovulated? Have you done any tracking of anything? Sorry you're still in limbo :(

sarah and loula are you testing this weekend? Anyone else?

AF sadly got me this morning so I am out sadly!

Onto cycle 7! Beginning to think something is wrong?!

JJ I think you've done the right thing deleting your apps etc. Being relaxed is so much healthier and better for you.

Hope your not waiting too long for AF highhopes xxx

Not sure if I've ovulated - I haven't noticed any difference in CM and never got a + on an OPK so haven't bothered with them.
I keep getting random spotting which makes me think AF is coming but then it's gone by the next day! Hmmm

Oh sorry she got you loula. Fx for both of us this cycle then and maybe we will test again together next month!

highhopes hopefully af is just round the corner then. I really hope it turns up soon so you can get back on track.

Hi guys,

I'm new too. Been lurking for a few days and have never posted on a forum before in my life but you lot seem like such a lovely bunch.

We too are ttc #1, coming to the end of cycle 1 (i think) after being on the pill for 10 years. We've just jumped in too having no break and dtd as much as possible. Im not doing temps or anything as we're in no desperate hurry but I have downloaded Ovia which is quite nice for keeping track of what's going on. I had no idea there was so much to this baby making...
In the mean time I'm stocking up on as much blue cheese/pate/etc as i possibly can, in-between trying to decide if I'm imagining sore boobs or if they really are sore....
It's nice to be able to talk and read about other people in the same boat and not bore DH and turn him off the idea!! Ha!

Not testing this weekend, Jj. AF is due around Tuesday if my cycle is the same as last time so going to see if she shows up. If not I'll test maybe Thursday or Friday if there's no sign.

Sorry SevenOfNine we don't allow borg on this thread... Just kidding your only a former both so we will allow it 😉 I'll update the list tomorrow for you 😁

Fx for you Sarah!! I'll be awaiting a nice bfp from you 😄

I'm currently camping with a big group of people so dtd is out of the window but luckily only for the night! I reckon ov will happen in the next day or so 😄

• former Borg! Damn phone why don't you recognise star trek lingo!

thank you BoBo, that would be efficient of you 😁😁

I do love your name, SevenOfNine! Made me grin like a crazy person when I saw it.
