Anyone want to be TTC buddies

[Mamabooksbabynumber2]

Hi ladies, I'm due to test on the 8/9th March and 2puld love a few ladies to share the journey with. Some of the groups are super big and it would be lovely to start a smaller group to be TTC buddies? I'm 30, ttc no 2, cycle 1

I think the earliest tests will only start showing up at 5 days before AF is due, so about 9dpo. It's more reliable the closer it gets to the end of the cycle though. If I were you I'd not bother until at least CD26.

2 dpo here so a long way off testing yet.
Good luck to everyone this month xx

Today is day 27 and I have done 2 tests and they were bfn. So I'm presuming i am put for this month. Good luck to everyone this month girls xx

Very sorry to hear about your miscarriage beardy

Anyone else finding it consumes alot of their waking day? It's all I can think about and it's so frustrating as the bfp isn't entirely in our hands feels like such a waiting game. I have an essay Due in 2 and a half weeks so really need to find my focus for that and not get distracted with waiting with af to show (or not show).

Sorry for the duplicate posts

Thanks mama and bumps for your kind words.

Bumps go you for keeping on it. I'm similar to you that I'm ready to go. Unfortunately mine was also suspected ectopic and need a final scan to check all is well so I've been told to wait after af which is a nightmare. I'm ready to go now.

Mama I'm with you there for the all consuming. It literally became my life but then I got busy at work and didn't have time to look on the apps etc was when I managed to fall pregnant. Those apps are amazing but canalso be the devil with predictions etc.

How's everyone getting on this week?

Sorry to hear about your miscarriage Beardy. I also had a miscarriage the week before Xmas, I had no bleeding or pain and then when I went for my 12 week scan they told me it had stopped growing 4 weeks before.
It definitely makes us stronger.
I'm 4 dpo so still a while off testing yet. Fingers crossed for us all this month xxx

taken a test and got a bfn and AFS appears to have arrived!

Hi everyone, do you mind if I join?
I have been TTC number 3 since August 2016. Had a chemical pregnancy in October and went back on the pill for a few months and now ready to start again!

Hi littlemiss. Awful to hear about your journey but exciting that your in your tww. You must be one amazingly strong bean. Go you. I lost my mum in June last year and I sometimes don't know where we get this innate force to keep going and smiling. Woman are pretty amazing. I'll keep fingers and toes crossed that this is your rainbow baby. I started my period today 4 weeks post MC. Happy I can get on with ttc again. Bring it on!!

Mamabooks sorry to hear af came but on the positive side it's another opportunity to get yourself even more ready for the baby. Keep your chin up lady.

Hi happymama, welcome and thanks for sharing your story. Sorry to hear about your cp too. Looks like we have another one to join our ttc party. Let's go ladies.

How awful, what a wicked 8 months you've had. It can only get better.
Brilliant news af has arrived for you post mc, at least you know where you're up to and can start ttc.
I've had some tummy cramping all morning so I'm hoping it's a good sign, but I've probably always had it post ovulation and just never noticed it before lol xx

AF arrived this morning, that's me done for this month.

Hey littlemiss, it's been a really wicked 8 months. I had just started to feel relatively ok and then conceived. Life can be tricky eh.

Eek the tww symptom spotting. I'm hoping this cramps are a good sign. Keep letting me know how you get on.

Sorry notquite about the af. Fingers crossed for next round.

Yeah me too, I shall let you know.
Are you using ovulation sticks this month or just hoping for the best?! Xx

Mammabook I am definitely finding it all consuming. I'm studying too and and before ttc I was very dedicated to my studies but now the only thing I seem to be able to concentrate on is reading about how to get pregnant!
How are you doing? Are you out this month?

Littlemiss I'm gonna go with out the ovulation sticks and see what my body is doing. I used them for two months and became obsessed, it was super weird when I looked back. It totally effected my poor hubby performsnce so I like to go eau natural now. Although after the MC I'm slightly cautious that things will be out of sync so will see how it goes. Did you find any difference after yours? Do you use the ovulation sticks?

My periods have been a couple of days longer and each time I've had clear mucous a few days before AF so I thought it might be a pregnancy sign coz I'd never had that before my mc, but obviously it wasn't a sign.
I had a fertility scan last Friday showing I was ovulating so I used the clearblue digital tests and I got a smiley face, I also dipped the same urine with a cheap eBay test and there wasn't even a sign of a line at all so I'm not using them again. I know others have had luck with them tho xx

Littlemiss how weird about the mucus. MC does change everything. I have been exactly a week after my normal period and continued to take my bbt temp and cm after MC and I could tell when I ovulated. Although I had quite a lot of ewcm which came out of nowhere for two days (sorry tmi), far more than normal. That's great you had a fertility scan to check. What does that involve? This tww could be the lucky one. I found that I never got a smiley face on the clear blue, just the flashing one. I guess it all depends on The individual.
I'm also having weekly acupuncture to ensure my cycle returns quickly back to normal. I'd love to conceive this month as it's our first year wedding anniversary in April and it'd be a lovely gift.

It was just an internal scan to show a good sized follicle ready to release an egg the following day. So of course we dtd then so fingers crossed.
I found out I was pregnant (before my mc) on my birthday and it was such a lovely present but obviously it didn't work out :( xx

Hello everyone do you mind if I join? I looked at the other threads but there were so many posts I didn't know where to start. I have just turned 31 and have been TTC #1 for four months but trying not to get too obsessed! This month I made a special effort, bought a CB digital OPK, took evening primrose oil, etc, so I am feeling positive. AF due in 3 days according to the app on my phone or 7 days by my own calculations. So far the only symptom out of the ordinary is really bad pain in my shoulders and upper back but I guess that could be anything. Did anyone else have that in very early pregnancy? I am trying not to get my hopes up because the disappointment can be pretty crushing.

Littlemiss, oh I see about the scan. Well I have all fingers and toes crossed. Anymore symptoms? What a lovely surprise finding out you were pregnant on your birthday. Shame about the outcome. I'm hoping you get your sticky bean this time.

Bumphopes, what are you studying? It's a nightmare it doesn't keep you busy.

Welcome harry, sounds like your doing all the right things. I haven't heard of anything like shoulder pain from early pregnancy symptoms but it could be something independent to you. Is it an aching pain or sharp?
